Guten Tag, I've got the Hello app runing with fiasco and l4re in qemu, how do I get the graphical UI and console running that I see on the screen shots page? Do I need to use l4con and mag? I don't see an entry with l4con in modules.list. danke * <http://german.about.com/library/media/Audio/gutentag.wav>*

libfs/ FUSE on L4Re
by Stark, Josef 31 May '17

31 May '17

Hello, yesterday I came across a very interesting paper titled "Porting FUSE to L4Re", accessible here: http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/papers_ps/pester-beleg.pdf For porting FUSE, the author uses a library called "libfs" which provides filesystem request forwarding and processing, if I understood correctly. It reads as if libfs is already included in L4Re. However, I couldn't find neither FUSE nor libfs in the current L4Re snapshot. Are they by any chance publicly available somewhere else, or are both not to be published? Cheers, Josef

Question about memory management in L4 Fiasco O.C + L4re
by Mahdi Aichouch 04 Jan '16

04 Jan '16

Hello, I have some questions concerning memory management in Fiasco O.C + L4re. I would like to test two L4Linux instances, and for each L4Linux instance I want to reserve one static fixed physical memory partition. For instance, one 128MB for the first L4Linux and one 128MB for the second. Knowing that Fiasco O.C. uses "on demand paging" to allocate pages for user tasks, is it possible that each partition of L4Linux could be allocated a static physical memory region composed of contiguous physical frames. For instance, one memory region starting from 128MB to 256MB for the first L4Linux, and second memory region from 256MB to 512MB for the second L4Linux. Each memory region is allocated exclusively to one L4Linux instance. I would like to know if it is possible to load all the code + data of a L4Linux instance into its reserved memory partition, so no page fault will be encountered during runtime. Is it possible to tell me if these above operations could be realized in Fiasco O.C and L4re? If the answer is yes, is it possible to tell me what are the objects that should be used or adapted in order to implement these? What are the issues that I should pay attention to? Many thanks in advance for your answer. Best regards, Mahdi
