Problem with L4Linux accessing ethernet clocks
by Manolis Ragkousis 01 Nov '17

01 Nov '17

Hello everyone, I am having trouble getting the network to work on L4Linux running on the zedboard. I have enabled the macb driver which my net card needs, I have created a device tree telling l4linux where to find the device and I have written the io configuration. The problem is that L4linux doesn't have access to the 3 clocks it needs for the network device to work. Those are "pclk", "hclk", "tx_clk". I understand that I have to assign those clocks to l4linux. But how can I do that? I cannot find any examples of assigning clocks. Won't this create an issue to the Fiasco kernel? Should the driver use "l4kipclk" instead of "pclk"? Below you will find the dmesg output, my io files, my cfg file and the device tree. Thank you for your time and help!

Hi, Starting from a previous work [1], I have succeeded in booting L4Linux on Cubietruck with the snapshot (l4re-snapshot-2016082114). Then I have been trying to configure L4Linux to access Ethernet device. With current configuration I cannot boot L4Llinux anymore.

Then I delete the "l4x_dtb=rom/sun7i-a20-cubietruck.dtb" from the cmdline, it can boot the L4Linux again. Does it mean there is a problem with loading the device tree blob? Any suggestion is very appreciated. Thanks. Best regards, Yang [1] http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/pipermail/l4-hackers/2017/008120.html

FOSDEM 2018 - Microkernels developer room - CfP
by Jakub Jermar 09 Oct '17

09 Oct '17

FOSDEM 2018 - Microkernels developer room CALL FOR PARTICIPATION The developers of several free and open-source microkernel-based operating systems will meet at FOSDEM 2018 [1] in Brussels, Belgium and will share a developer room on Saturday of February 3, 2018 [2]. The devroom is currently looking for content in the form of talks and activities related to the area of microkernel-based operating systems. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: * Introduction of a specific OS or framework * Design of subsystems and the general architecture of an OS * Enabling support for hardware (architectures, device drivers) * Used languages and tools * Maintenance and testing * Security and robustness * Trends and challenges * Use cases, experiences, lessons learned and demos Please use the Pentabarf [3] system to submit your proposals and file it under the track “Microkernels devroom”. You do not need to create a new account if you already have one. When in doubt, please use the devroom mailing list [4]. If you do not want to give a talk yourself, you may still send suggestions for what else you would like to see, or do in the devroom. Please send your suggestions to the mailing list. The deadline for your proposal is on December 8. Make sure to include the following in your proposal: * Title of your talk (will be printed in the FOSDEM booklet) * Your full name (will be printed in the FOSDEM booklet) * A short abstract (one or two paragraphs) * Duration of your talk (please, at least 25 and no longer than 45 min) The official devroom schedule (along with the accepted talks) will be announced on December the 15th on the devroom's mailing list and the speakers will be notified via e-mail. The schedule will also be published on the FOSDEM website. About FOSDEM FOSDEM is a two-day event organised by volunteers to promote the widespread use of free and open source software. Taking place in the beautiful city of Brussels (Belgium), FOSDEM is widely recognised as the best such conference in Europe. FOSDEM covers a wide spectrum of free and open source software projects, and offers a platform for people to collaborate. To this end, FOSDEM has set up developer rooms (devrooms) with network/internet connectivity and projectors where teams can meet and showcase their projects. Devrooms are a place for teams to discuss, hack and publicly present latest directions, lightning talks, news and discussions. Besides developer rooms, FOSDEM also offers main tracks, lightning talks, certification exams and project stands. Every year, FOSDEM hosts more than 5000 developers at the ULB Solbosch campus. Participation and attendance is totally free, though the organisers gratefully accept donations and sponsorship. No registration necessary. About the devroom Since the first Microkernel devroom in 2012 this devroom has been part of each following FOSDEM. By now it has become a somewhat institutionalized tradition for the microkernel community to meet there; to this date over a dozen projects have participated in one way or another. Each of the projects face similar challenges but come up with partially different solutions. Therefore, the goal of the Microkernel devroom is to bring the various projects together, let them exchange ideas, cross-pollinate and socialize. Social events It also has become a habit that the microkernel projects dine together somewhere in downtown Brussels after the devroom closes. The year 2018 will not be any different, so there is going to be a microkernel family dinner on Saturday night. The exact location and time will be specified later. Consult the FOSDEM web and other projects for additional social events such as the famous FOSDEM-organized Friday Beer Event and the FOSDEM-arranged free sightseeing tours for spouses. Important dates recap * 08.12.2017: Deadline for submissions * 15.12.2017: Schedule published and speakers notified of acceptance * 03.02.2018: The devroom takes places Links [1] http://fosdem.org/ [2] https://fosdem.org/2018/practical/transportation/ [3] https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM18 [4] https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/microkernel-devroom See you all at FOSDEM!

Dear L4-hackers, I have already run "Hello World!" on Cubietruck. At the moment i am trying to run L4Linux. I have built the files on Ubuntu with cross compiler gcc-linaro-4.9.4-arm-linux-gnueabihf. During booting there are two errors, assertion failure and kernel panic.

L4Linux network and SD Access
by Daniel (Xiaolong) Wang 18 Aug '17

18 Aug '17

Hi all, I want to give L4Linux access to SD card, and ethernet driver. Initially I thought by run L4Linux kernel on top of L4re, drivers built with L4Linux kernel can just work. After trying and reading the email archive, seems like I need to configure the corresponding capability in cfg. I’m very new to L4re environment is there any tutorials or references that can help me understand it better? (I’m currently reading the manual, my development board is a beagle bone black) Also I’m trying to build a L4Linux with MMC driver. My configuration is based on default arm_defconfig. I enabled * Make Linux be a Server * Bus driver for L4vbus * L4shm based network driver * MMC/SD/SDIO card support -> HW reset support for eMMC, MMC block device driver, Use bounce buffer for simple hosts, SDIO UART/GPS class support, Secure Digital Host Controller Interface Support, SDHCI platform and OF driver helper, MediaTek SD/MMC Card Interface support * DOS/FAT/NT Filesystem -> MSDOS fs support, VFAT fs support however, when it build the following errors show did I do something wrong?

I/O memory access and hardware page mappings
by Paul Boddie 25 Jul '17

25 Jul '17

Hello again, Having looked at the l4vbus_gpio functions and struggled with providing suitable devices, I decided to take the simpler approach and just ask for the I/O memory of the devices and access that directly. However, this didn't prove as straightforward as anticipated, either. The aim was to take the previously-mentioned device resources of the following form and to perform l4io_request_iomem (or l4io_request_resource_iomem) to get addresses of virtual regions corresponding to the different physical memory regions. PORTA = Hw.Device(function() Property.hid = "jz4780-gpio-PORTA"; Resource.regs = Res.mmio(0x10010000, 0x100100ff); ... end); PORTB = Hw.Device(function() Property.hid = "jz4780-gpio-PORTB"; Resource.regs = Res.mmio(0x10010100, 0x100101ff); ... end); ... PORTF = Hw.Device(function() Property.hid = "jz4780-gpio-PORTF"; Resource.regs = Res.mmio(0x10010500, 0x100105ff); ... end); It was indeed possible to obtain the resources involved with individual ports and also to obtain an address for each port region. However, accesses relative to these base addresses did not produce the expected results (LED output changes, switch input changes). (Looking at the virtual and physical regions in jdb suggested that the accesses were not being propagated, although I was also not successful in putting values into physical memory addresses and obtaining any of the expected results, either.) Now, I did wonder how such a small, 256-byte region mapping would actually work with my hardware. The JZ4780 does not support pages smaller than 4K when mapping memory, but I did notice that I do get an exception if trying to access beyond the end of the virtual region. (I found this out when considering that perhaps the virtual address might actually point to the base of the hardware page containing the region. So, I added a region offset to the base and tried to perform a memory access. Obviously, returning the hardware page address would be an unfortunate choice because it would oblige the API user to know about such things. Clearly, the API should return the address of the actual region, and maybe it does.) So, if this smaller-than-hardware page size is enforced, there must be a mechanism above the plain TLB mechanism that performs such enforcement. One interesting thing I noticed was that when requesting two different regions, the virtual addresses for the base of the regions were 4K apart, not 256 bytes apart. In any case, I was left wondering if any such mechanism might be preventing accesses from being correctly propagated. To simplify things a bit more, I then decided to just define the entire GPIO region in the device tree: GPIO = Hw.Device(function() Property.hid = "JZ4780 GPIO"; Resource.regs = Res.mmio(0x10010000, 0x100105ff); end); Requesting the memory for this device succeeds as before, but then performing accesses relative to the returned virtual address (with port F at vaddr + 0x500, for instance) also succeeds and produces the desired result, unlike before. So, what is this mechanism that handles accesses to regions that do not correspond to hardware pages (either in size or alignment)? Is there some kind of address-based trapping that redirects accesses to some kind of privately- allocated page that is then mapped to the hardware page concerned? Is it possible that this mechanism does not work on MIPS or on my specific device? I apologise if I should be answering my own questions by looking at the code or particular documentation resources.

uImage Load Address Issue
by Daniel (Xiaolong) Wang 23 Jul '17

23 Jul '17

Hi All, I’m testing L4re on a customized I.MX6 Solo-X-4 board. I found that the fiasco kernel (the simple hello world example built into an uimage) cannot be load by the U-boot. It shows “data abort". The reason I guess it is due to different loading address. The U-boot’s default $loadaddr is 0x80800000, but the uimage I build using the L4re buildsystem has: Load Address: 11000000 Entry Point: 11000000 ==> Installing bootstrap.uimage in image directory Image size(s) in bytes: bootstrap_hello-cfg.elf: 1470844 bootstrap.raw: 1437696 bootstrap.uimage: 1437760 Start address: 0x11000000 I used the RAM_BASE=0x8080000 option to change the starting address when I made the image (as shown below), the boot did not crash but the kernel hangs at “Starting kernel..." Load Address: 01000000 Entry Point: 01000000 ==> Installing bootstrap.uimage in image directory Image size(s) in bytes: bootstrap_hello-cfg.elf: 1470844 bootstrap.raw: 1437696 bootstrap.uimage: 1437760 Start address: 0x801000000 I think it is still related to the different load address. But I do not know how to fix it. I would really appreciate if someone can point me to a right direction. Thanks -Dan

Obtaining and accessing device abstractions in L4Re
by Paul Boddie 22 Jul '17

22 Jul '17

Hello, I've been trying to write some drivers in L4Re, starting out with a GPIO driver for a currently-unsupported board, and I think I have mostly understood the concepts involved. Fortunately, there are already a couple of drivers to borrow ideas from... pkg/io/io/server/src/drivers/gpio/bcm2835.cc pkg/io/io/server/src/drivers/gpio/omap.cc And if I am not mistaken, such drivers can be accessed from other components by just doing something like this (testing for validity as we go): vbus = l4re_env_get_cap("vbus"); l4vbus_get_device_by_hid(vbus, 0, &gpio_handle, gpio_hid, 0, 0); l4vbus_gpio_set(vbus, gpio_handle, gpio_reg, value); It appears that if I just declare the device appropriately in my board's hw_devices.io file, I should be able to get a handle for it using code like the above. And all access can apparently be done via the l4vbus_gpio functions with this handle. (I was also wondering if it was possible to actually instantiate or obtain a device directly instead of obtaining a handle, for code written in C++, but the above is easily good enough at the moment.) But now I want to make another, non-GPIO, driver abstraction, instead of directly accessing the mapped memory regions concerned (which I see that some of the drivers do). It seems like I should be able to... * define a class for the abstraction inheriting from Hw::Device * declare the device in hw_devices.io using this class * provide various properties in the hw_devices.io declaration (for configuration purposes) * read the properties in the actual class implementation * access registers in memory just as the GPIO drivers do I think I can muddle through all this. But how should another component access methods provided by this driver? Do I have to implement functionality like that provided by the following files...? pkg/io/libvbus/lib/src/vbus_gpio.cc pkg/io/libvbus/include/vbus_gpio-ops.h pkg/io/io/server/src/virt/gpio/vgpio.cc Does any of this make any sense? :-) I'm just getting started here, but thanks are due in advance for any advice anyone may have!

Booting L4Re on the CI20: Panic in sigma0
by Paul Boddie 20 Jul '17

20 Jul '17

Hello, I've been trying to get Fiasco.OC and L4Re booting on the MIPS Creator CI20, starting out by building the "hello" example. The first obstacle was actually seeing the serial output, where the board appears to be configured to output to UART4 in the bootstrap package, but booting from an SD card produced no output. Although I thought I had messed up the preparation of the image, or that U-Boot was being fussy about the image addresses and failing to execute the payload, switching to UART0 and rewiring my connection got me some output. For reference, changing the UART involves a couple of modifications to pkg/bootstrap/server/src/platform/ci20.cc as follows: - kuart.base_address = 0x10034000; // UART4 + kuart.base_address = 0x10030000; // UART0 - kuart.irqno = 34; + kuart.irqno = 51; // UART0: 32 + 19 But now I appear to experience a panic in sigma0 as it starts up, with the message... Warning: Sigma0 raised an exception --> HALT Here are the regions: Regions of list 'regions' [ 0, 1db] { 1dc} Kern fiasco [ 1000, 10eb] { ec} Root mbi_rt [ 10000, 9d09f] { 8d0a0} Kern fiasco [ 140000, 184773] { 44774} Root moe [ 190000, 197f3f] { 7f40} Root moe [ 200000, 20be17] { be18} Sigma0 sigma0 [ 210000, 2161bf] { 61c0} Sigma0 sigma0 [ 2d0000, 2e33df] { 133e0} Boot bootstrap [ 1100000, 1164fff] { 65000} Root Module And the registers look like this: 00[ 0]: 00000000 at[ 1]: 80022e50 v0[ 2]: 00000001 v1[ 3]: 80000000 a0[ 4]: 00010000 a1[ 5]: 002000e0 a2[ 6]: ffffffe7 a3[ 7]: 00000401 t0[ 8]: 00000000 t1[ 9]: 00000401 t2[10]: 00000413 t3[11]: 82152f38 t4[12]: 82152000 t5[13]: 801873bc t6[14]: fffffffe t7[15]: 801873bc s0[16]: 82152f60 s1[17]: 00000400 s2[18]: 00000001 s3[19]: 00000000 s4[20]: 80090000 s5[21]: 00000000 s6[22]: 00000fa0 s7[23]: 00000000 t8[24]: 8008519c t9[25]: 800a0000 k0[26]: ffffffff k1[27]: ffffffff gp[28]: 800b7f80 sp[29]: 00000000 fp[30]: 80185000 ra[31]: 80010000 HI: 00000000 LO: 000003a8 Status 00000413 Cause 00000010 EPC 002000ec The EPC indeed appears to reference sigma0, with the Cause indicating an erroneous data or instruction fetch operation. Looking at the disassembly of sigma0... 002000e0 <__start>: 2000e0: 3c1c0001 lui gp,0x1 2000e4: 279c7f80 addiu gp,gp,32640 2000e8: 0399e021 addu gp,gp,t9 2000ec: 8f9d8018 lw sp,-32744(gp) 2000f0: 8f99801c lw t9,-32740(gp) 2000f4: 27bdfff0 addiu sp,sp,-16 2000f8: 0320f809 jalr t9 2000fc: 00000000 nop ...it appears that the problem occurs when the global offset table is accessed. The global pointer gets computed as... 0x10000 + 32640 + 0x800a0000 = 0x800b7f80 ...with the load-relative operation accessing... 0x800b7f80 - 32744 = 0x800aff98 It is presumably this address that is illegal within the failing thread of execution. I've been looking at the debugger documentation... http://l4re.org/fiasco/doc/jdb.pdf ...but I'm not sure I'm doing the right things to see the state of the machine. Attempting to dump the memory at that address appears to indicate inaccessible memory, but I imagine that this region might not be mapped within whichever "task" is active. Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can troubleshoot this problem? Thanks in advance, Paul
