L4re RAM/Flash usage and scheduling timing Info
by Eric Miniere via l4-hackers 28 Mar '25

Hello Everyone, I am looking for an estimate of the memory footprint to run the hypervisor L4RE on a quad Core ARM Cortex R52. Does it run directly from flash or it needs to be copied to run in RAM ? same question for Guests OS (ie FreeRtos)? What could be the minimal needed L4RE footprint for code and data ? Also if someone could share a rough idea of scheduling time for an ARM R52 running at 400Mhz ? or nb of cycle it takes to schedule ? Thanks _______________________________________________ l4-hackers mailing list -- l4-hackers(a)os.inf.tu-dresden.de To unsubscribe send an email to l4-hackers-leave(a)os.inf.tu-dresden.de

Trouble booting L4Re on PC hardware?
by Richard Clark 14 Mar '25

Hi! I've had much success building and running my applications in QEMU. No issues there. But now I've got myself some real hardware. Windows boots on it. Debian Linux boots on it. Linux even boots from the USB I create with rufus. No problems there. What I would like to do, is to take the system.iso image that normally runs under QEMU (x86_64), burn that to my USB stick (same way I put linux boot on there), and then boot the USB stick. The hardware will boot from the USB, and the image copy to the USB appears to work, since I've done that and booted linux. But I cannot seem to get the system.iso file to boot. I've tried UEFI boot, Classic boot, copy as UEFI image, and copy as DD image. It seems to ignore the USB drive and (by default) boot windows from the NVME drive. The device has no serial port. Just an HDMI screen with USB mouse and keyboard. It does have ethernet ports and I could try that, but it doesn't appear that the UEFI bios supports TFTP. How do I take my QEMU work and boot it on a real PC? Thanks!
