L4Re: region mapper/manager concurrency considerations and resource limits
by Paul Boddie 02 Mar '21

02 Mar '21

Hello, Apologies for introducing two potentially separate topics, but they both seem to present themselves in my most recent endeavour. In short, I am wondering about the following... What considerations need to be given to concurrency with regard to the use of the l4re_rm_attach function and similar functionality? Is access to the region mapper/manager from different threads in the same task advisable, are there thread safety issues, and if so, can these be sensibly worked around? (I have observed what seems to be the same address being provided for two different dataspaces at the same time, which does not appear to happen when I introduce locking around calls to l4re_rm_attach. Are such problems expected or could this be some other problem manifesting itself?) What kind of resource limits apply to L4Re tasks? In my work, I am allocating capabilities for objects acting as dataspaces. Things seem to work fairly well up to a certain point, and then capability allocation seems to fail, and program failure is then not particularly graceful. (I currently observe that creating 160 threads, each with its own IPC gate capability seems to be unproblematic, but more than this will produce errors that manifest themselves either in pthread library code or in my own code where a critical section is supposed to be enforced.) I suppose some contextual remarks might be useful. My previous work involved providing some simple filesystem-related functionality through filesystem servers, where a new server object (exposed via an IPC gate and having its own thread) is created for each open file. Some stress testing in a multiprocessor environment indicated that various concurrency issues were highly likely to be present. (I also probably didn't provide general enough support for flexpages, but since all my "send" flexpages were single machine pages, I don't think this would have caused additional problems or confusion.) Consequently, I migrated the principal mechanisms to my Linux environment and wrote a simulation to explore the concurrency situation, identifying and hopefully remedying various deficiencies (including more general flexpage support). This new endeavour involves bringing this tested functionality back into L4Re, wiring it up with the IPC system, and testing using multithreaded clients. I might also ask about support in L4Re for C++ threading constructs. When developing my simulation, I decided to use the standard C++ support for threading, mutexes, condition variables, and so on, as opposed to using pthread functionality. I imagine that C++ library support for these things just wraps the pthread functionality, but I wonder if there are not other considerations that I might need to be aware of. Sorry if this is in any way vague, but since there isn't really any discussion about system architecture or implementation on this list with respect to these technologies (or really any technologies), I find myself experimenting with the available software to determine techniques and approaches that I hope will be viable. Nevertheless, any constructive remarks or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Paul

Boot problems with Fiasco.OC on the NanoPC-T3 Plus
by Andreas Resch 25 Jan '21

25 Jan '21

Hello everyone, as part of a practical course at my university my group has to bring Fiasco.OC and L4re to the NanoPC-T3 Plus which is powered by the S5P6818 from Samsung/Nexell. We’re currently stuck on multiple fronts, and as a sort of last resort I’m asking here for help, I hope you don’t mind. 1. Problem - The RAM We implemented a working uart driver for our board and when using all (seemingly) correct values for the RAM region (as stated in the TRM is located from 0x40000000 to 0xc0000000) our SBC only boots up to the message “Hello from Startup::stage2” and then hangs in the function Kmem_alloc::Kmem_alloc() , we believe because the value of Map_base is with 0xffff000040000000 far too big but haven’t found a way to fix this issue whilst keeping the correct RAM region. Does someone have an idea why setting the incorrect RAM region results in more progress in the boot process (as stated in the following paragraph)? 2. The Timer - or the lack thereof When we were experimenting with the RAM size we found that when setting to to 3GB starting from 0x40000000 we achieve slightly more output. Right up to ARM generic timer, which seems to not work on this particular board, we decided to implement our own timer driver, now we are stuck at Panic: Trace buffer size unaligned which, upon investigation, was an output from the JDB; by disabling the debugger we could again get more output, seen below. The clock doesn’t seem to start counting and I currently have no idea how to implement my own clock driver, I was hoping the generic clock would suffice.

Fiasco.OC won't boot on Aaeon FWS2360 ...
by Andreas Steinmetzler 19 Dec '20

19 Dec '20

Hi, in some experiments I'm trying to run Fiasco/L4re on a Aaeon FWS2360 (https://www.aaeon.com/en/p/desktop-network-appliance-fws-2360) with an Intel Atom C3558. Unfortunately Fiasco gets stuck on boot when trying to start the different cores of the processor (I'm using the latest published l4re-snapshot-20.10.0). For this test I'm using the "hello world" ISO build with this command make E=hello grub2iso MODULE_SEARCH_PATH="${PWD}/../build-fiasco-amd64" The ISO image boots fine on another amd64 system. After adding some printf()'s to the file kernel_thread-ia32.cpp it looks to me that things get stuck with this call: // Send IPI-Sequency to startup the APs Apic::mp_startup(Cpu::boot_cpu(), Apic::APIC_IPI_OTHERS, tramp_page); as it does not return anymore ... any hint how to debug this or drill down to get more information and the AtomC3558 system to boot?

CfP: FOSDEM 2021 - Microkernel Devroom
by Martin Decky 08 Dec '20

08 Dec '20

Microkernel Devroom at FOSDEM 2021 CALL FOR PARTICIPATION On-line version of this CfP: http://fosdem.microkernel.info/ The developers and users of several free and open source microkernel-based operating systems will meet on-line as part of FOSDEM 2021 [1] and will share a developer room. The devroom is currently looking for content in the form of talks and activities related to the area of microkernel-based, unikernel-based, component-based operating systems and similar topics. The devroom has been preliminarily scheduled to Saturday February 6th 2021. The devroom will take place during European day hours. Possible topics of the devroom include, but are not limited to: * introduction of a specific OS or framework * design of subsystems and the general architecture of an OS * used languages, tools and toolchains * enabling support for hardware (architectures, device drivers) * enabling support for programming languages * development processes, debugging * maintenance, testing and release engineering * security and robustness * trends and challenges * community and governance * use cases, experiences and status updates * best practices, lessons learned and demos This is a call for your participation. We kindly ask you to submit your proposals no later than on December 26th 2020. Please use the Pentabarf website [2] to submit your proposals. If you already have a user account in Pentabarf, please do not create a new one. Please make sure to select the Microkernel devroom as the track when submitting your talk and include at least the following information in your proposal: * title of your talk * your full name * short abstract of your talk (one or two paragraphs) * duration of your talk (at least 20 minutes and no longer than 50 minutes), excluding a Q&A part * your short bio * your photo The talks will be pre-recorded in advance in January and streamed during the event. This means that you will need to complete and submit your talk by around mid January. However, each speaker should be also present on-line just after the streaming of the talk for a live Q&A. You can specify your prefered time slot of your talk. The communication language of the devroom is English. The official devroom schedule (along with the accepted talks) will be announced on December 31st 2020 on the devroom's mailing list [3] and the speakers will be notified via e-mail. The schedule will also be published on the FOSDEM website. You are also invited to send any other suggestions for what you want to see or do at the devroom to the mailing list. About the Devroom Since the first Microkernel devroom at FOSDEM 2012 [4], this devroom has been part of each following FOSDEM. The focus gradually widened to include component-based and unikernel-based operating systems. By now it has become a somewhat institutionalized tradition for the 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 devroom is to bring the various projects together, let them exchange ideas, cross-pollinate and socialize. Extraordinary Circumstances in 2021 Due to the extraordinary mode of organization of FOSDEM 2021 (being an on-line event for the first time), many practical aspects of the devroom are still in the process of determination. For example, the devroom talks will be required to be pre-recorded in January and streamed during the event (with a live Q&A), but the technical details are still sketchy at this moment. The talk videos will be published under Creative Commons license by FOSDEM. By submitting a recorded talk, the speaker agrees to have it made available publicly indefinitively. For organizational purposes, we also need contact information of the speakers of accepted talks. Please check the official CfP page [5] of our devroom regularly. We will keep updating it as new guidelines will be determined by the FOSDEM organizers. Sadly, it will not be possible to arrange our traditional microkernel dinner and other in-person social gatherings in Brussels this time. However, we plan to organize an on-line replacement. The details will be announced later in January. On the other hand, the on-line nature of the devroom allows us to "overflow" to a second day in case we receive a substatial number of quality proposals. About FOSDEM FOSDEM [6] is a two-day event organised by volunteers to promote the widespread use of free and open source software. FOSDEM is widely recognised as one of the best such conferences worldwide. FOSDEM covers a wide spectrum of free and open source software and hardware projects and offers a platform for people to collaborate. To this end, FOSDEM has set up developer rooms (devrooms) 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 proposals. Besides developer rooms, FOSDEM also offers main tracks, lightning talks, and in the past instances certification exams and project stands. In recent years, FOSDEM has been hosting more than 5000 developers at the ULB Solbosch campus. Due to the circumstances, FOSDEM 2021 will be organized as an on-line event. Despite this, the participation in FOSDEM is still totally free, although the organisers gratefully accept donations and sponsorship. No registration is necessary, but attendees are expected to follow the FOSDEM's code of conduct [7]. Important Dates Recap * 2020-12-26: Deadline for talk proposal submission * 2020-12-31: Schedule published and speakers notified of acceptance * mid January 2021: Time frame for talk pre-recoding * 2021-02-06: Devroom taking place on-line Contact In case of any questions, comments and suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact the devroom organizers via the devroom's mailing list [3]. The primary organizers of the devroom in 2021 are: * Martin Decky * Jakub Jermar Links [1] https://fosdem.org/2021/ [2] https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM21/ [3] https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/microkernel-devroom [4] https://archive.fosdem.org/2012/schedule/track/microkernel_os_devroom.html [5] http://fosdem.microkernel.info/ [6] https://fosdem.org/ [7] https://fosdem.org/2021/practical/conduct/

L4Linux with hardware access on amd64 PC ...
by Andreas Steinmetzler 31 Aug '20

31 Aug '20

Hi, I'm experimenting with the TuD Snapshot release 2020.07.1 and can compile and run Fiasco, L4re and L4Linux in their basic configurations (amd64 architecture) using the default l4lx.cfg file of the distribution. As this is not all that useful, I was looking in getting the system use the available hardware. Based on snippets I found on the internet and the example config files, I created the following cfg and devs files, but now L4Linux immediately runs into an unhandled exception (full boot log at the end of this eMail). Was wondering if someone from the mailing list can share a set of config files which would allow to get L4Linux up and using at least some of the basic hardware like network and disks on a typical PC board. In my current experiments I'm using the following config files (see below). Any help or pointers are appreciated!

L4Re: Identifying the source location of a program exception
by Paul Boddie 01 Aug '20

01 Aug '20

Hello, Returning to L4Re investigations with newer hardware (hosting qemu on the amd64 architecture), I have been trying to debug some of my hastily written code that undoubtedly has a race condition lurking in it. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the way of discovering how to identify the source instruction responsible (if I ever really knew it to begin with). I get an error like this: L4Re[rm]: unhandled read page fault at 0x38 pc=0x3a8bd9 Previous experiences suggested that I might not get much sense out of the program counter value, and it was also suggested to me that I might try and use the kernel debugger to show the thread execution state. I dug up instructions to achieve this... 1. Modify pkg/l4re-core/l4re/util/include/region_mapping_svr_2 and pkg/l4re-core/l4re_kernel/server/src/region.cc to employ enter_kdebug invocations. 2. Add jdb = L4.Env.jdb in the capabilities section of the start or startv invocation that invokes the task in the appropriate .cfg file. 3. Run the system and wait for an exception to trigger the debugger. 4. Use the t<enter> command sequence to see the thread state. 5. Use <space> to enter the disassembly and see the supposedly problematic instruction. Unfortunately, this seems to add confusion. Firstly, I end up with a different location: ffffffff10455e98. Even if I assume that the actual location is 455e98, being somewhat near to the usual payload base address of 400000, it doesn't help me identify what the code is that resides there. Normally, I would attempt to use addr2line, nm or objdump to provide some kind of map, but I cannot see any correspondence between their output and these values. I also considered, since my code is dynamically linked, that I might need to get the linker to tell me a bit more about where it is positioning library code in memory. This was suggested in another context a couple of years ago: http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/pipermail/l4-hackers/2018/008274.html However, the only vaguely pertinent output I can find is this: _dl_protect_relro:124: RELRO protecting rom/libuc_c.so: start:0x3a6000, end:0x3a7000 _dl_protect_relro:124: RELRO protecting rom/libdl.so: start:0x3bf000, end:0x3c0000 If the 3a8bd9 value is meaningful, it evidently refers to something between these two regions, if these regions are valid. I thought that there was a more coherent summary of loaded objects, but I cannot find any details of that now. I imagine that there must be a simpler way of getting back to the source from exception addresses and would greatly appreciate being told (or reminded) what that is! Thanks in advance, Paul

uvmm support for AMD-V
by Andreas Steinmetzler 16 Jul '20

16 Jul '20

Hi, I followed the tutorials on github to get a basic L4re environment compiled and running (Hello World) on a embedded x86 board (more specifically APU2 https://www.pcengines.ch/apu2.htm). Everything worked fine - really nice tutorial. Next, I was using the single Linux VM guide to move on getting to more interesting stuff and uvmm stopped with the following error message "VMM: FATAL: Unsupported HW virtualization type.: Invalid request" While reading more of the documentation I looks to me that uvmm is not supporting AMD-V (last sentence in https://github.com/kernkonzept/uvmm/blob/master/doc/uvmm.dox). Wondering if there is a fundamental shortcoming of the AMD-V extensions or is it just missing because nobody worked on it?

Access to Arm Trusted Firmware
by Stefan Kalkowski 14 Jul '20

14 Jul '20

Dear l4-hackers, I've seen that Fiasco.OC provides support for the i.MX8 SoC universe. I'm curious about whether the kernel provides any means to access the ARM Trusted Firmware (ATF) in general? (especially regarding the vendor-specific calls for powering different peripheral domains). I've seen some kind of platform control privilege for cpu powering if I understood it correctly. Is there something more generic available? I'm asking, because right now I write a platform driver for Genode running on the i.MX 8M with focus on the base-hw kernel. But if there is a way I would like to support Fiasco.OC as well. Thank you in advance for any clearing up & best regards Stefan -- Stefan Kalkowski Genode labs https://github.com/skalk | https://genode.org

Question on availability of 'Live Hacking - HW Enforced Virtualization Of Linux Home Gateway'
by Andreas Steinmetzler 14 Jul '20

14 Jul '20

Hi, not sure if this is the right forum to ask, but I came across the following presentation given @embedded World 2018 https://bringyourownit.com/2018/03/20/hardware-enforced-virtualization-of-l… and was wondering if the full presentation and the "live hacking" steps are available somewhere as I'm interested in doing more experiments in this direction? Or maybe there is some other similar write-up available which is describing something similar? Any pointers are highly appreciated. Thanks Andreas BTW: I tried to search the mailing list archive, but unfortunately I'm getting a 403 permission error :(.
