Hello Martin,
Thank you very much for your help! The "cons multiplixer" and "L4Shmnet"
services are working perfectly.

- Regarding the attribution of a direct network access to one L4Linux:
*"I fear that it is currently not possible to configure this network
interface on l4linux for vexpress-a9. QEMU (v2.4.0.1) supports lan9118 only
but the l4linux smsc911x.c requires CONFIG_OF in smsc911x_probe_config_dt.
But configuring via DT is not yet fully working in
l4re-snapshot-2014092821."*
Given your above advice, and given that at the end of my project the
application have to run on the Freescale i.MX 6 Sabre SD board, and given
that there was a previous work [1] [2] done by Taeung Song to port of the
FEC Ethernet device driver to L4 Fiasco + L4Linux
(l4re-snapshot-2014022818), I think that it would be better to use the
previous work of Taeung on the "l4re-snapshot-2014092821".
My question is: does the work of Taeung have been integrated into the l
4re-snapshot-2014092821?
If not, what would be the difficulties that I have to pay attention to if I
would like to adapt his work to l4re-snapshot-2014092821, is there any
incompatibilities between his work and the l4re-snapshot-2014092821?
Does the "cons multiplexer + L4Shmnet" services still run as it is the case
now, if one L4Linux instance has direct access to a physical network device
and acts as a router for the second L4Linux instance?
Thank you very much in advance for you answer.
Best regards,
Mahdi
