Hi,
Is the task required for porting this Ping program is the same thing as porting the ifconfig in mini_ifconfig (included in Flips package)? Is there any documented tutorial (on porting apps to fiasco) or guide that I can starts with? For now, the Hello world program is the nearest practical clue that I have.
There is no step-by-step tutorial for porting applications. It's mostly about knowing what is already there and then modifying the original code or build system in order to use L4Env calls. However, since there is a full C library (uclibc) and a POSIX layer implementation (L4VFS) available, most of the calls used by such applications should easily work on L4Env. If another library gets involved, you might however be forced to port this library to L4Env first.
