SMP L4 released for Alpha
by Gernot Heiser 11 Apr '01

11 Apr '01

A version of L4 for Alpha processors has been released in source form under the GNU GPL. The kernel is provides full, scalable and low-overhead support for SMP systems. It has been tested on 21064, 21164 and dual CPU 21264 systems. This is the first release of a multiprocessor version of L4, and the second 64-bit version (after MIPS, also from UNSW). The source is available from http://l4alpha.sourceforge.net. We hope that this release will stimulate external interest (and participation) in L4 development and use.

RE: l4-Linux and gasp
by Sebastian Schoenberg 27 Mar '01

27 Mar '01

The gasp .align directive should be written directly to the outfile. The warning is misleading, since some gas-versions (for alpha) use .align x as alignment to the power of two, other use the value given as argument.

l4-Linux and gasp
by Christian Stueble 27 Mar '01

27 Mar '01

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hello, due to problems with L4Linux/Fiasco I noticed that gasp reports the warning: l4_idle.pre:1836 alignment must be one of 1, 2 or 4. l4_idle.pre:1988 alignment must be one of 1, 2 or 4. when compiling l4_idle.pre.

Problems compiling CVS Version 02/20/2001
by Christian Stueble 20 Feb '01

20 Feb '01

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hello, I tried to compile the l4 CVS version from today, but I have some oskit/oskit10 problems: 1) l4/Makeconf seems to add oskit10 includes even if OSKIT10 is not set. Maybe the line "ifeq ($(OSKIT10),) " is wrong? 2) When I fixed that, l4/pkg/log/lib/src/doprnt.c produces an error, because oskit/boolean.h is not there. Do you mean flux/boolean.h, or should oskit10 be used instead of oskit? 3) I also tried to use oskit10, which produces errors in oskit_support and some services because of missing headers, e.g., lmm/lmm.h or flux/machine/pc/reset.h Some files seem to require oskit and some oskit10??

problem starting the hello server
by Christian Rehn 11 Jan '01

11 Jan '01

Hi, I,ve got a problem starting the hello server on top of fiasco. I checked out l4-fiasco from the cvs repository and compiled it. My menu.lst looks as follows: kernel=(nd)/boot/tftpboot/rehn/rmgr -sigma0 module=(nd)/boot/tftpboot/rehn/main -nojdb module=(nd)/boot/tftpboot/rehn/sigma0 module=(nd)/boot/tftpboot/rehn/hello When I try to boot l4 rmgr starts, loads the l4 kernel and the sigma0 server but does not load the hello server (I'm not sure if it is loaded but not executed or if it is not loaded but I can not find the code that should load the hello server). Where should the hello server be loaded? Why does the rmgr "exec_load" main and the sigma0 server but not the hello server in function startup() in startup.c? Thanks, Christian

L4 benchmarks
by Greg Law 12 Dec '00

12 Dec '00

Hi, I would like to get some benchmarks for L4 on Pentium. Specifically, I am after the times to create a process and execute a getpid (preferably in cycles). Does anyone know where I can get such info before I try and go through the pain of measuring it myself? Cheers, Greg -- Greg Law, email: gel(a)soi.city.ac.uk Dept.
