Startup help for L4Linux
by Andrej S 12 Sep '12

12 Sep '12

Hi Adam, I have build some packages on my self on-top of bare fiasco, but however I didn't get l4linux to run. I got snapshot, I configure it, like readmy says me, with 'make setup' with all default settings and paths. Then I build it with 'make'. What should be my next steps to run l4linux? 2012/7/2 Adam Lackorzynski <adam(a)os.inf.tu-dresden.de>: > > On Sun Jul 01, 2012 at 08:57:41 -0500, Andrej S wrote: >> thanks for answer. >> I explored sources given with snapshot little bit and now I'm able to >> compile and run fiasco-ux. >> >> But not all is perfect: >> 1.

Mapping physical mem region
by Nikolay Golikov 12 Sep '12

12 Sep '12

Hi, l4-hackers! How I can map some physical memory region to task address space? I tried to use l4sigma0_map_mem, but it return me "No fpage received" error. I tried different region szes from 256M to 4K. PS I try to do it on i.mx53 TZ-VMM | Hello from tz-vmm! TZ-VMM | Nonsecure Ram mapping failed (No fpage received)! TZ-VMM | Addr: 0x80000000 Size: 0x1000 (4K) SIGMA0: Memory usage: a total of 4096 byte are in the memory pool allocated 10 of 203 objects this are 200 of 4060 byte SIGMA0: Dump of all resource maps RAM:------------------------ [4:70000000;70000fff] [4:70061000;7008ffff] [4:70097000;70097fff] [4:7009f000;8effffff] IOMEM:---------------------- [0:0;53efffff] [10:53f00000;53f03fff] [0:53f04000;63f9bfff] [10:63f9c000;63f9ffff] [0:63fa0000;6fffffff] [0:90000000;ffffffff]

Fiasco.OC (rev. 40) Pandaboard support
by Stefan Kalkowski 07 Sep '12

07 Sep '12

Hi L4-hackers, recently I've tried to adapt Genode's Fiasco.OC-platform support to use the latest Fiasco.OC/L4Re subversion revision. When trying it on x86 I didn't run into any trouble. It worked "out of the box". But when it came to ARM, I got problems to boot Fiasco.OC on the Pandaboard in general (also when using plain Fiasco.OC/L4Re). I've debugged the problem down to Cpu::init_errata_workarounds(). The problem is that pandaboard's boot code initializes TrustZone, and triggers a configuration-disable signal beforehand. That leads to 'undefined instruction' exceptions, whenever one tries to write into the p15/c15-c0-1 debug register (like it's done in init_errata_workarounds). The attached patch implements Cpu::init_errata_workarounds() empty for the pandaboard. Moreover, it restricts the appliance of ERRATA 743622 to CPU revisions: r2p0-r2p2. With the attached patch Fiasco.OC runs fine on the Pandaboard too.

l4linux filesystem under fiasco-ux
by Ryan Brown 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

So far I've been running l4linux in a virtual machine. I'd like to run it in fiasco.ux to compare performance. But if l4linux under ux has no access to hardware, how do I access the filesystem? Am I stuck with the initial ramdisk? Or is there some way to mount the host filesystem, or a part of it?

Local APIC address and MSI address
by Chen Tian 22 Aug '12

22 Aug '12

Hi, According to Intel manual, local APIC address starts at FEE00000, which is overlapping with the MSI's address register. How does this actually work? Thanks.

i.mx53 and fiasco.oc
by Nikolay Golikov 22 Aug '12

22 Aug '12

Hello. I trying to run fiasco.oc + l4re on freescale i.mx53qsb. And have some problems to do this. I using i.mx51 platform configuration with some changes. I changed addresses in src/kern/arm/bsp/imx/mem_layout-arm-imx.cpp: EXTENSION class Mem_layout { public: enum Virt_layout_imx53 { Timer_map_base = 0xef1ac000, Uart_map_base = 0xef1bc000, Watchdog_map_base = 0xef198000, Pic_map_base = 0xef200000, Uart_base = Uart_map_base, }; enum Phys_layout_imx53 { Device_phys_base_1 = 0x53f00000, Device_phys_base_2 = 0x0fffc000, Watchdog_phys_base = 0x53f98000, // wdog1 Timer_phys_base = 0x53fac000, // epit1 Uart_phys_base = 0x53fbc000, // uart1 Pic_phys_base = 0x0fffc000, }; }; And made some little changes in other source files. When I try to boot it, I see something like this: ## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 70800000 ...

If I understand correctly tzic on i.mx53 and tzic on i.mx51 is equivalent. And second question: I do not understand for what purpose make pysical devices and sdram mapping in: src/kern/arm/bootstrap.cpp? // map sdram linear from 0xf0000000 for (va = Mem_layout::Map_base, pa = Mem_layout::Sdram_phys_base; va < Mem_layout::Map_base + (4 << 20); va += 0x100000, pa += 0x100000) map_1mb(page_dir, va, pa, true, false); // map sdram 1:1 for (va = Mem_layout::Sdram_phys_base; va < Mem_layout::Sdram_phys_base + (4 << 20); va += 0x100000) map_1mb(page_dir, va, va, true, true); map_hw(page_dir); And why afterwards devises on physical addresses are out of order?

Local APIC cannot deliver MSI to CPU (Fiasco.OC) ?
by Chen Tian 22 Aug '12

22 Aug '12

I am trying to use MSI for my network card. After setting the MSI slot in the PCI configuration block based on Intel manual, I can confirm the interrupt is delivered to the processor's local APIC by looking at the IRR content in kernel debugger. The bit in IRR that reflects the vector I specified in MSI message is set to 1 by APIC. However, the interrupt handler installed at that vector is never invoked. Does someone have any idea on this? The priority does not seem to be the issue, because I checked the TPR, which was 0x80 when I entered kernel debugger and decreased to 0 when I press 'g'. The error status register is also zero in the kernel debugging mode, while there is a pending interrupt request as suggested by IRR. But the cpu just can't get the interrupt. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Issues in l4re-snapshot-2012081219 for ARM
by Ivan Loskutov 18 Aug '12

18 Aug '12

Hello, I tried new l4re-snapshot-2012081219 and found the following issues for ARM target: 1. File bin/setup.d/04-setup has error in BeagleBoard and Pandaboard L4Re configs generation. Patch attached. 2. I get errors at startup on Pandaboard KERNEL-369098737: alignment error at da067a03 (PC: f001e0ec, SP: 6e72654b, FSR: 400001, PSR: 600001d3) KERNEL-369098737: alignment error at da067a03 (PC: f001e0ec, SP: ea00000f, FSR: 400001, PSR: 600001d3) KERNEL-369098737: alignment error at da067a03 (PC: f001e0ec, SP: ea00000f, FSR: 400001, PSR: 600001d3) KERNEL-369098737: alignment error at da067a03 (PC: f001e0ec, SP: ea00000f, FSR: 400001, PSR: 600001d3) I found that the error is caused by a init_errata_workarounds() call in Cpu ::init (src/kernel/fiasco/src/kern/arm/cpu-arm.cpp). If I comment this call, then kernel started and hello example worked. Error is occurred when called set_c15_c0_1() function. I have not solved this issue yet. -- Ivan Loskutov

dma memory mapping
by Chen Tian 18 Aug '12

18 Aug '12

I'd like to allocate some physical memory for a device's DMA. Do I need to use some special flags in l4_task_map? Thanks.
