I am able to generate "clntsrv.iso" image for the clntsrv application given in l4/pkg/examples directory. But when i execute in qemu, i get * BOOTFS: [1418000-154fef5] [C:503000] l4re* * BOOTFS: [1550000-162e6e6] [C:504000] clntsrv-client* * BOOTFS: [162f000-1714483] [C:505000] clntsrv-server* *No fpage received* *MOE: cmdline: moe --init=rom/clntsrv-server* *MOE: Starting: rom/clntsrv-server * *MOE: loading 'rom/clntsrv-server'* *Could not register my service, is there a 'calc_server' in the caps table?* *MOE: task 1565571 exited with 1* Please help...

I'm still not fully understand but if i conclude the method to access the gpio of omap4460 in Pandaboard is : Define the res.mmio(address) in lua .dev script. Make vbus capabilities in .cfg. Make a program that can access GPIO via vbus with a client-server concept? I'm sorry i'm not fully understand about this, but what is the server of this client i am making. Also, before i your email, i already 'porting' a omap4460-chip driver in io module. and editing the .devs file so it matches with the memory of omap4460 (The two file is attached). Is my step right, and after that what should i do to be able to access it via my main program. When i try to compile the omap44x2.c it give me error like attached below. Is it because i'm not insert all of the virtual function in my program ? because actually i am not really in my goal in the mean time. I really appreciate and say biggest thanks with any of your suggestion and answer P.S : I am attaching my current main program just in case. And i still access it directly. without main2.c : http://pastebin.com/eZKqy1LE omap44x2.c : http://pastebin.com/0hupnnyR arm-omap4.devs : http://pastebin.com/pK6k7F5y error output : http://pastebin.com/s2skR3wu

Hi, I already fix the line to this line >> REQUIRES_LIBS += libc_be_file_stdin libstdc++ but it still gave error. But the error is not in the compiler. It's on the linker. My code is like this : char cmd[12] ; printf("Initialization Finished\n"); while(1) { printf("erry@erry-OS : \t"); gets(cmd); if(strcmp(cmd,"clear")==0) { ............. It gives undefined referenced error to gets in main.o (Liunker error not compiler error). Where do i go wrong. And also, how to use getline() in this scope ? >> And also, how to make hello-cfg be able to accept keyboard input. I have >> already include libc_be_file_stdin and include line below in my hello.cfg >> but it still not working : >> >> *L4.default_loader:start({ caps = { log = L4.Env.log,},l4re_dbg = >> L4.Dbg.Warn,log = { "l4linux", "yellow" },}, "rom/hello");* > >That looks ok to me. How are you trying to get the input in your >program? I'm trying to get input using getchar(). But when i load the kernel.

As already questioned in the other mail, >how are you trying to get the input in your program? Yes, I am testing this scenario in QEMU using x86 Build. The purpose of this testing is to understand how to access and use the IO using L4Re. Because i'm still not fully understand about it.

I am studying to directly access the GPIO. So if i wrote simple program (let's say main.c program in testGPIO module that i created myself). I don't need to call the .devs and .io or call the driver module ? And also, i already make successful block code to access GPIO but not using L4Re API. But it cannot be implemented in L4Re Block code. It's something like this : http://pastebin.com/TMc9ieBr Thank you, and i really appreciate any answer and helps. -- *Regards,* *Erry Pradana Darajati | Student of Computer Engineering* *Politeknik Elektronika Negeri Surabaya / EEPIS, Indonesia*

Paper: undermine memory isolation in Fiasco OC covert channels
by teclis High Elf 23 Dec '14

23 Dec '14

Hi, These researchers from TU Berlin claim to be able to undermine memory isolation in Fiasco OC through the use of covert channels. I'd be very interested to hear the opinion of the Fiasco experts. (Could a system built on Fiasco be hardened against such an attack be adding access control for UDP ports)?? http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/984.pdf

Re: L4Re GPIO

Thank you for the help in my last email. I want to continue the question from my last email. 1. I want to QEMU to accept input from keyboard to emulate and study how to use an configure of IO. I study this as a part of my main goal to access GPIOs of Pandaboard. Well, in my last email i stated that i already include x86-legacy.devs module in modules.list, and define REQUIRES_LIBS=libc_be_file_stdin, and using "default-kernel fiasco -serial_esc" defined. But, it still not respond to any of my keyboard input. So, what did i miss? 2. I have modified omap3 driver that included in the package to be used with omap4460 registers, but i have a few difficulties. There are few missing registers (like Clr_irq_enable1 register that not present in OMAP4460) and i am still cannot comprehend the scm_offset table. Because when i crossreferencing the source with the OMAP3 TRM the i cannot understand the value. My question is. Is it be able to use only some of the defined register to do simple IO task, and enable or disable register ?

JDB and sigma0
by teclis High Elf 21 Dec '14

21 Dec '14

Is there a way to use JDB to query sigma0 to see which task owns an address? Say for example I have a virtualization system built using Fiasco L4Re and all I have is the instruction pointer for where a potential problem, possibly a memory leak. Is there a way to use JDB to find out which task the L4Re system thinks owns that address?

iostream and string in L4Re

Hello, L4-hackers. i have a short question. Is iostream and string functions present in L4Re. Since i cannot use it. I have already included the line below in my makefile : *REQUIRES_LIBS += libc_be_file_stdin libstdc++ cxx_libc_io cxx_io* And also, how to make hello-cfg be able to accept keyboard input. I have already include libc_be_file_stdin and include line below in my hello.cfg but it still not working : *L4.default_loader:start({ caps = { log = L4.Env.log,},l4re_dbg = L4.Dbg.Warn,log = { "l4linux", "yellow" },}, "rom/hello");* Thank you for the answers -- *Regards,* *Erry Pradana Darajati | Student of Computer Engineering* *Politeknik Elektronika Negeri Surabaya / EEPIS, Indonesia*
