Aw: Re: l4linux: l4x_setup_memory:Cant get main memory

[Rudolf Weber]

Hello,
thank you for the answer.
CONFIG_L4_VCPU is enabled in the src/l4linux/arch/l4/configs/x86-native_defconfig,
CONFIG_L4_VPCI have to be enabled.
But following compiling-error appears:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `pnp_register_irq_resource':
/home/rw/l4exp/l4re-snapshot-2013060718/src/l4linux/drivers/pnp/resource.c:70: undefined reference to `pcibios_penalize_isa_irq'

I researched and think, that pcibios_penalize_isa_irq make no sense in the arch/l4.
So I make a little changing:

        dbg_pnp_show_option(dev, option);
        return 0;

(Since this is not in the arch/l4-part, I think a dummy pcibios_penalize_isa_irq should be implemented in the arch/l4-Part)

The Booting-Result is better now, but an new error occurs:

l4linux | Invalid IO-Port access at pc = 0080b476 port=0x110

In the System.map I found
0080b400 t el3_init_module
which is in the src/l4linux/drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c509.c - Module.
Here the driver scans the io ports 0x110,0x120,...,0x200

Ok - I will throw it out.

But what is the strategy ?
Should l4linux get all io ports for all devices - with exception of the devices which serve other servers ?
Should l4linux have modules for all not important devices ?

How do you solve it ?

Correct.

Please enable CONFIG_L4_VCPU and also start io because io is
implementing the virtual PCI busses for the client. Config is as seen in
l4lx-x86.io for example.
