Questions on U-boot Verified Boot with CAmkES-ARM-VM

by Daniel Wang

Hi all, I’m trying to test secure boot with the CAmkES-arm-vm. I found that U-boot has its implementation of secure boot called verified boot, but it seems only support FIT image format. I’m wondering is there a way to convert the final ELF image to an FIT image? I’m studying the details of different booting image format. I’m not sure how it would work with seL4 camkes demo specifically, since there are so many binary files and cpio archives packed in the final ELF image. Would love to hear your opinions. Thank you very much! Best Regards -Daniel Wang

ARM Vchan Error

by Daniel Wang

Hi all, I’m trying to make Vchan work on camkes-arm-vm in the process I encountered a couple problems. Hope you can give me some advice. I knew that Vchan is out dated and never finished on ARM. But it seems the only option for now (please correct me if I’m wrong). Here is what I did so far: 1. modified tk1_vmlinux.c by adding the virtual device and fault handler and installed it to guest linux with vm_add_device(vm, &vchan_dev); --------------------------------------------------- vchan_device_fault_handler(struct device* d UNUSED, vm_t* vm, fault_t* fault){ //uint32_t data = fault_get_data(fault); uint32_t data = fault_get_ctx(fault)->r1; vchan_entry_point(vm, data); // fflush(stdout); advance_fault(fault); return 0; } struct device vchan_dev = { .devid = DEV_CUSTOM, .name = "vchan-driver", .pstart = 0x2040000, .size = 0x1000, .handle_page_fault = &vchan_device_fault_handler, .priv = NULL, }; --------------------------------------------------- 2. compiled linux-tegra using buildroot (by the way the current linux-tegra is 4.9.0 which is not supported by buildroot-2016, the earliest version works for me is buildroot-2017-2), added a vmm-manager kernel driver similar to the one in camkes-x86-vm. But I changed the call_into_hypervisor() to the following: --------------------------------------------------- int call_into_hypervisor(int cmd, void *data, size_t sz, vmcall_args_t *vmcall) { int res = 0; int err; unsigned phys_ptr = virt_to_phys(vmcall); vmcall->data = data; vmcall->cmd = cmd; vmcall->phys_data = virt_to_phys(data); vmcall->size = sz; down(&hyp_sem); /* Set up arguments for the ARM hyp call */ asm volatile ("mov r0, %0; mov r1, %1" : : "r" (VMM_MANAGER_TOKEN), "r" (phys_ptr): "%r0", "%r1"); asm volatile (".arch_extension virt\n\t” "hvc #0"); asm volatile ("mov %0, r0" : "=r" (res) : : ); err = vargs->err; up(&hyp_sem); return err; } --------------------------------------------------- The kernel built and run correctly. But when I try to install the kernel driver. It crashed with following information. --------------------------------------------------- # modprobe driver.ko [81.826621] driver: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel Bad sys call from [Linux]: scone 0 at PC: 0xbf000214 Assertion failed” !err (/camkes-arm-vm/libs/libsel4arm-vmm/src/vm.c: vm_event: 407) ————————————————————————— I’m not sure if this error is triggered by the modified call_into_hypervisor() or by event_thread_run()->eventfd_signal(). Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance. Best Regards -Daniel Wang

IPC

by tj5527

Searching on the sel4 repository, I find there is a manual talking about IPC (https://github.com/seL4/seL4/blob/9dba8e67ccb54e207bbec22e25f21c65e5c6a45f/…) In addition to this material, where - particularly source code - would be a good start point to look into IPC design and implementation? Thanks

Status of cmake support?

by Bruce Mitchener

Hello! I've been looking at doing some builds with cmake and ninja experimentally again. Is anyone else doing this? I noticed that some bugs are being filed about warnings from clang, but I was only able to get some of the cmake + ninja stuff working when I used gcc. How are people using clang? So far, I haven't gotten a working build with cmake of sel4-tests. Is there a good way to trouble shoot this or should I post more detailed info in a thread on this list? Thanks, - Bruce

Haskell and language support

by jonas.cl＠protonmail.com

Hi, Does anyone know when the Haskell support will be released in public? In the Language support section of https://wiki.sel4.systems/Suggested%20projects is says that it will be released in the near future, but the page was last edited on June 2016. I propose that the language section also contains links to where the source can be found. I am also writing since I am working on porting the sel4-tutorial to Idris, which could be added to the list of languages, with a link to https://github.com/mokshasoft/sel4-idris-manifest There is a long way to go before it is finished, but if people want to help I accept patches. /Jonas Sent from [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com), Swiss-based encrypted email.

OPENSSL for seL4

by Daniel Wang

Hi all, Anyone has openssl working for seL4? I compiled a version of openssl it links correctly but as soon as the code calls BIO_new_mem_buf() the system crashed with: FAULT HANDLER: data fault from vm.control (ID 0x03) on address 0xffffffb4 ,pc = 0xe259c, fsr = 0x3800006 If openssl is not available for now I wonder has anyone used other crypto library before, such as wolfssl, bearssl, etc.?

Booting BIN abort after elfloader

by Daniel Wang

Hi all, With help from Dr. Chubb, I found there is a config to build CAmkES-ARM-VM as binary instead of ELF. However when I boot it on TK1 the process abort after loader code as follow. It is the same result when I convert ELF to BIN. Do you have any suggestion why this is happening (the paddrs and virt_entry are correct). Thank you very much! Tegra124 (TK1-SOM) # ext2load mmc 0 0x90000000 capdl-loader-experimental-image-arm-tk1-bin 31897292 bytes read in 884 ms (34.4 MiB/s) Tegra124 (TK1-SOM) # go 0x90000000 ## Starting application at 0x90000000 ...

Ethernet driver for TK-1

by Michal Podhradsky

Hello, I would like to use a similar Ethernet driver component as for x86 platforms here: https://github.com/seL4/camkes-vm/tree/master/components/Ethdriver But in the camkes-vm-arm repository I don't see an equivalent component: https://github.com/SEL4PROJ/camkes-arm-vm/tree/master/apps/vm/components Is the ethernet currently just passed to Linux? And if so, what would entail making a new driver etc similar to x86 platforms? Regards Michal
