Hello L4-Hackers,
can you tell me, what are the capabilities of Fiasco.OC when it comes to 'dynamic reconfiguration'?
As far as I know, (almost) all the configurations is made in conf.cfg and hw.io, right?
But, is it also possible to do some configuration during run-time i.e. dynamic reconfiguration? Here are two examples I can think of:
- IPC-Channels: Instead of defining Server and its Clients in conf.cfg statically, is it possible to create IPC-Channel during run-time? Let's say, I have a L4re-App in conf.cfg defined as IPC-Server but, no Clients, yet. Now, may any L4re-App create a IPC-Channel by itself and such link to that IPC-Server?
- New Tasks: Is a L4re-App able to create a new task? I.e. push a thread into its own address-space? The new task would require some access rights, too.
Is this any possible? Or is this prohibited due to security issues?
Thanks,
