Hi, Adria, I have fix this build error, it is because I use an old version of apps/sel4test-driver/scripts/extract-test-names.sh I am developing an operating system which can support Microsoft COM like component programing module based on seL4, so I have to sync every repository manually.

Hi, This checkin cause a build error: Drop static qualifier from tests so that C++ compilers will use extern C linkage instead of name mangling https://github.com/seL4/libsel4test/commit/930744eaf43260ceb37ce2793eefbe77c d808ff0 the error information: .../libs/libsel4test/src/test.c:161: undefined reference to `__start__test_case' .../libs/libsel4test/src/test.c:161: undefined reference to `__stop__test_case' Xilong Pei Tongji University 2015/7/13

Streamline seL4/libsel4 and make it not depend on libc
by Wink Saville 10 Jul '15

10 Jul '15

I've got sel4test running with libsel4 not having a dependency on libc. I've pulled out libsel4assert, libsel4benchmark, libsel4printf and libsel4putchar from libsel4 and they are separate libraries The biggest change is to seL4/libsel4 and sel4/tools/bitfield_gen.py. The changes to bitfield_gen.py allow it to generate the same code as before for the kernel but uses the new names for entities in user space. Please let me know what you think. -- Wink https://github.com/winksaville/seL4/tree/libsel4-no-libc-dependency https://github.com/winksaville/libsel4test/tree/libsel4-no-libc-dependency https://github.com/winksaville/libsel4allocman/tree/libsel4-no-libc-depende… https://github.com/winksaville/libsel4utils/tree/libsel4-no-libc-dependency https://github.com/winksaville/sel4test/tree/libsel4-no-libc-dependency https://github.com/winksaville/libsel4assert https://github.com/winksaville/libsel4benchmark https://github.com/winksaville/libsel4printf https://github.com/winksaville/libsel4putchar

can IPC be concurrent running?
by Pei.XiLong(裴喜龙) 07 Jul '15

Hi, We can get the definition of IPCBuffer from here https://github.com/seL4/seL4/blob/master/libsel4/arch_include/arm/sel4/arch… enum { seL4_GlobalsFrame = 0xffffc000, }; It is fixed in one virtual space, that means the IPC in seL4's thread cann't be concurrent, we can't prepare more than 1 IPC request at the same time, for we call these function: seL4_SetTag, seL4_SetMR, seL4_SetUserData wil use this buffer, but there is no locker to protect the buffer. Is my understanding correct? Xilong Pei Tongji University 2015/7/6

Where is the definition of seL4_TCB_BindAEP and seL4_TCB_UnbindAEP?
by XilongPei(裴喜龙) 07 Jul '15

Hi, In test program binding.c https://github.com/seL4/sel4test/blob/master/apps/sel4test-tests/src/tests/b inding.c , there are two functions, seL4_TCB_BindAEP and seL4_TCB_UnbindAEP, where can I get their definitions? Xilong Pei Tongji University 2015/7/6

Try two for libsel4 not having a dependency on libc
by Wink Saville 04 Jul '15

04 Jul '15

Here <https://github.com/winksaville/sel4-min-sel4/tree/new-libs> is a different approach for removing the libc dependency, it seemed like people thought libsel4 was to big and that as part of the effort of breaking the dependency it should be made smaller. Basically libsel4 does nothing expect satisfy dependency needed for the kernel for some xml files. And I've broken libsel4 into basically 8 other libraries. see here <https://github.com/winksaville/sel4-min-sel4/tree/new-libs/libs>. This maybe taking things to far, but it does mean people can use only what they need, which I like. The smallest example is app/min-hw which only uses libsel4_gen, libsel4_startup. libsel4_bootinfo and libsel4_putchar. At the other extreme apps/test-newlibs uses everything. Anyway other organizations are certainly possible. Currently there is at least one known problem, I modified bitfield_gen.py so types_gen.h has no asserts since at the moment the kernel uses assert and userspace is libsel4_assert. We could either do something like I've done and remove them or change the kernel to use libsel4_assert or something else. Anyway, before creating a pull request I'd like to know what people think. -- Wink

Who can give me a sample program using sel4platsupport_new_io_ops
by XilongPei(裴喜龙) 01 Jul '15

Hi, sel4platsupport_new_io_ops is defined in libsel4platsupport/include/sel4platsupport/io.h , it creates a new implementation of the platsupport io_ops interface using a provided simple, vspace and vka, Here is its protocol: /* * @param simple Simple interface for getting the physical frames * @param vspace VSpace interface to use for mapping * @param vka VKA interface for allocating any extra objects or cslots * @param io_ops Interface to fill in * * @return returns 0 on success */ int sel4platsupport_new_io_ops(simple_t simple, vspace_t vspace, vka_t vka, ps_io_ops_t *io_ops); Who can give me a sample program using this function? I guess it will be used in I/O DMA program, but I don't know much about DMA program. Xilong Pei Tongji University 2015/7/1
