kobject kinvoke from ned
by teclis High Elf 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

Is there a way to send commands to the kinvoke method of a kobject from a ned script? I saw in l4/pkg/ned/doc/ned.dox that an IPC gate can be used to send an io stream directly from a ned script. Is there some lua sample code I could look at that shows making a kinvoke call of a kobject from a ned script? thanks

[Out-Of-Topic]How to Access Input GPIO of OMAP4460 without L4Re (direct access)
by Erry Pradana Darajati 28 Jan '15

28 Jan '15

Hi L4 Hackers, My subject seems out of topic, but i don't know where i can ask this kind of thing, and i think there are many people have a knowledge about this subject. I have a problem. I want to directly access GPIO140 (in GPIO5 ball) as input. I have a function to print the value of GPIO5_DATAIN (0x4805 B138). But when i print that out, the value of it still not changed (zero value). I Conclude, the pin still not accepting the input. I have already done these things : 1. Set GPIO5_OE to 0x1 2. See the value of MCSPI1_CS3 Pad Configuration (0x4A10 013C) and it give me value like this (0x011B 001B) which is for GPIO_140 -> MUX_MODE=gpio_140. PULLUDENABLE=0x1(enable). PULLTYPESELECT=0x1(enable). Which is in my current knowledge, is a right setting for accepting input. But still, it's still not successful So where or what did i miss ? is it still any configuration / address to set ? I appologize for the Out-of-Topic Subject .Thank you for any answer and suggestion and help. -- *Regards,* *Erry Pradana Darajati | Student of Computer Engineering* *Politeknik Elektronika Negeri Surabaya / EEPIS, Indonesia*

Can you please suggest a simple kernel service(like ipc) which is not present in l4re but already existing in linux?

Help in booting L4Linux(on Freescale i.MX6Q) using root file system on SD card.

Hi, l4 hackers Is there anybody who can a bit give hints about SD card on L4 Linux to him ?

Is it difficult than this? Yes I tried to enable SD card. But I couldn't do it.

Yes, but the name have to make a pair with the name of argument for 'l4x_register_platform_device_callback()' function. but I'm not sure it. > > The guide still uses ramdisk and not some other rootfs, isn't it? > Can I modify .cfg file so that I can boot from SD card > like(//dev/mmcblk1p1)?/ > In my opinion, in order to enable SD card in L4 you have to do as below.. 1. Register SD card in io server 2. Modify mach_setup.c for SD card 3. Modify SD card driver source code for L4 (if it is needed to enalbe SD card in L4) For anything I know, three things is my thought.

Hi, Hackers, Under Linux, the clock framework defines programming interfaces to support software management of the system clock tree. Is there similar framerwork/server on L4 variants? Any information related to it would be useful. Thanks! -Li

User-level objects
by li94575 23 Jan '15

23 Jan '15

Hi， As I know, we can set access permissions for the kernel objects, and access to user-level objects is through IPC_Gate. So, can I set access permissions for user-level objects through the IPC_Gate? Another question is that If multiple clients need to access a particular service object, do they use different IPC_Gate or the same?
