Hi, I think if a servive in l4/pkgs like shell in Linux exists it will help the L4-user very much. We could start or stop a seriver like creating or destroying a process in Linux.
Why don't you just use an Linux shell for creating linux processes, like bash? It does not seem to make much sense creating linux processes from outside L4Linux?
I don't know whether there is a server like this? If it is not done I want to have a development with this server. thank you!
There are external shells for Drops, but they are mostly used for interacting with the L4 system, not the inner workings of L4Linux. Have a look here:
pkg/loader/examples/run pkg/little_shell (I don't know if this is available externally)
pkg/l4vfs/term_server (a basis for little_shell)
And then there are L4Linux tools to start L4 tasks:
pkg/loader/examples/run-l4
