booting l4linux under drops
by Emanuel Thomas 27 Jun '05

27 Jun '05

Hello, I've tried to boot L4Linux under Dope using the grub menu from the demo cd. But there is no dopelog and doperun being build by the cvs source. What is initrd.gz good for? Anyway not using these tasks or using the ones from the demo cd results in a frozen system after dope has launched. Is there really no Dope client application available in the cvs source? Thanks in advance, Emanuel

Hi, Is it possible to pass commandline parameters to an application loaded with "run" when using bmodfs as file provider, without having to make a config file? Thanks, Derick

fprov-l4 problem
by fabs0028＠free.fr 25 Jun '05

25 Jun '05

Hello, as you guessed, i forgot to patch fprov-l4 with twiddler so now it works perfectly. I still have some questions: - is it possible to give directly the arguments to program launched by run-l4 without using a configfile ?. - i would like to know if it is possible to see all the l4 task running with one program given with l4env, i thought the minitop might be ok but it doesn't, i understood afterward that it mutst work with con or dope. So any "ps" or do i have to do it myself :) ? Thanx for your help Fabien Chaillou

L4Linux console using CPU
by Bert van Leeuwen 24 Jun '05

24 Jun '05

Hi, Does anybody perhaps know why a DROPS virtual console focused on a L4Linux virtual console uses up CPU time? Is this "normal" behaviour? My DROPS console shows +- 25% CPU usage if the DROPS virtual console is focused on the L4Linux terminal, +- 1% if the DROPS virtual console is focused on something else (e.g. run console). From what I can tell, the thread running the L4Linux virtual console is at priority 0xff, but the main L4Linux task appears to be at default priority 0x10... Is this correct? Thanks in advance, Bert

Hello, I'm trying to build Fiasco with L4Linux. While compiling the l4/pkg/nethub package needs a crypto/libdes.a and cxx_log_io library, which are missing. Which package is going to create them? I used the following modules from the cvs: l4 preprocess fiasco l4linux-2.6 l4linux-2.6-env Do I need something else? Emanuel Thomas

patching grub
by Emanuel Thomas 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Hallo, I tried to patch the grub from the cvs but that doesn't work. It seems that there are files missing in the cvs, like: configure.ac docs/multiboot.info /stage2/terminfo.c I've tried the grub patch 0.95, 0.96 and 0.97 (from http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/~adam/grub/). Emanuel Thomas

fprov-l4 problem
by fabs0028＠free.fr 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Hello, well now my l4linux is fully working and i find it pretty fast (except when i left only 32mB of ram for l4linux of course). I would like to launch some l4 programs from l4linux so i need to run fprov-l4 first but when i do so, i got a message telling me that fprov is running and then my system crash (it freezes totally and i have no choice but reboot). it seems that fprov-l4 got stuck on a system call (it hangs on a int $0x80) Thanx for your help :) Fabien Chaillou

Re: L4 ethernet driver and stack setup

I can > not use the attribute hack with dynamically allocated memory. Right. Better software than GRUB have some function like virt_to_phys() which is called for every data buffer. This function can be easily implemented using the phys_addr feature of the dm_phys dataspace manager (see dm_phys/doc for more documentation).
