Hi,
I'm searching for some Informations about using the dde-kit. My goal is to use the SocketCan driver from Linux eith the l4re on an ARM BeagleBone Black (Omap3x).
In that case you are looking for DDE/Linux. DDEKit provides a generic layer for anything I/O related that you can use to either emulate a different OS environment (DDE/*) or to write an L4Re driver.
DDE/Linux then provides an L4Re environment to run Linux drivers. l4/pkg/dde in the L4Re repositories would be the starting point and also contains examples.
The examples are x86 and Linux 2.6.29, though. There is no ARM port of DDE/Linux.
The Manual at http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/ddekit/ did not work because of missing l4/sys/cache.h
The link is an implementation of DDEKit for Linux userspace, so it won't help you with L4Re anyway.
After some searching I discovered a copy of dde also in the fiasco snapshot in l4/pkg/dde/ but have no idea of how to use it.
I would be very helpfull to get some advice about usefull documentation or some hints about the usage of dde
The general approach is: take a Linux driver and link it against libdde-linux & co as it is done by the examples in l4/pkg/dde as well as l4/pkg/ankh. Again, all of those are a bit out-dated and do not support ARM.
Regarding text documentation, please see the PDFs linked in the bottom section of http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/ddekit/ .
