Dear Adam,
Thank You very much for the response. Do You mean that the l4shmnet
can be used as a communication channel between two (or more ?)
instances of l4linux over TCP/IP?
By the way, how should then the start scripts seem? Would it be again
like a client - server type interaction between both instances? For
instance would it work with the following set up and would I see for
example a ping request and response of each side?
local my_channel = l:new_channel();
local linux_caps1 = {
log = L4.Env.log:m("rws");
vbus = io_caps.linux_bus1,
rtc = rtc_caps.rtc,
rom = L4.Env.rom,
myL4shm = my_channel:svr(),
};
l:start(
{
caps = linux_caps1,
},
"rom/vmlinuz1 mem=512M console=ttyLv0
l4shmnet.add=test_l4shm,macpart=01 ramdisk=rom/ramdisk1 root=1:0
ramdisk_size=5000 l4x_rd=rom/ramdisk1 init=/sbin/init");
local linux_caps2 = {
log = L4.Env.log:m("r");
vbus = io_caps.linux_bus1,
rtc = rtc_caps.rtc,
rom = L4.Env.rom,
myL4shm = my_channel,
};
l:start(
{
caps = linux_caps2,
},
"rom/vmlinuz2 mem=512M console=ttyLv0
l4shmnet.add=test_l4shm,macpart=02 ramdisk=rom/ramdisk2 root=1:0
ramdisk_size=5000 l4x_rd=rom/ramdisk2 init=/sbin/init");
Many thanks in advance,
Regards,

Yes, basically a software network switch with an (optional) network
driver.

No, l4shmnet is only between two partners. The driver is there but
disabled because it's not working.
