Hello, I have question about sel4's new ninja build tool. *1. From now on, sel4-tutorials use ninja build tool, so I repo new sel4-tutorials.Last step, I executue this command "../init-build.sh --plat pc99 --tut hello-1" but It prints with this error messages.What's the problem?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------CMake Warning at tools/cmake-tool/flags.cmake:123 (message): Kernel supports hardware floating point but toolchain does notCall Stack (most recent call first): tools/cmake-tool/base.cmake:58 (include) tools/cmake-tool/all.cmake:16 (include) CMakeLists.txt:23 (include)CMake Error at projects/sel4-tutorials/CMakeLists.txt:34 (message): You must select a tutorial for compilation.

Questions on U-boot Verified Boot with CAmkES-ARM-VM
by Daniel Wang 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

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

sel4 qemu x86 runtime error
by Thad Seeberger 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

Compile now no problem however I'm getting error when running. I believe its an invalid opcode exception. I think my build not matching the qemu but I've tried diff machines and they do the same. I also get this warning during build, not sure if this relevant: Warning: Installation path /home/maddthad/camkes-tutorials-manifest/projects/capdl/capDL-tool not found on the PATH environment variable. make: Leaving directory `/home/maddthad/camkes-tutorials-manifest/projects/capdl/capDL-tool' Qemu commanr, lines with ????? suspect: qemu-system-i386 -nographic -m 512 -kernel images/kernel-ia32-pc99 -initrd images/capdl-loader-experimental-image-ia32-pc99 (process:98550): GLib-WARNING **: gmem.c:483: custom memory allocation vtable not supported Boot config: parsing cmdline 'images/kernel-ia32-pc99 ' Boot config: console_port = 0x3f8 Boot config: debug_port = 0x3f8 Boot config: disable_iommu = false ????

ARM Vchan Error
by Daniel Wang 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

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 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

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

IOMUX on iMX6 conflict with libethdrivers
by Fabrizio Bertocci 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

Hi, I need your help in trying to understand what is the best way to implement a permanent fix I can push on the seL4 repository regarding the incompatibility issues between the libethdriver and MUX interface of the platsupport. This apply to the iMX6 ethernet driver. I'm not sure about other platforms. In short, the problem is that platsupport takes ownership of the entire MUX (maps the I/O) when the io_ops are initialized: Repo: seL4/seL4_libs File: libsel4platsupport/src/io.c Function: sel4platsupport_new_io_ops ... mux_sys_init(io_ops, get_mux_dependencies(), &io_ops->mux_sys); ... The above call end up calling the platform-specific mux_sys_init that maps only the first 4Kb of IO space from address 0x020e0000 (the base address of the IOMUX controller - note: the IOMUX controller uses 16Kb of address space for its registers, not 4Kb!!!): Repo: seL4/util_libs File: libplatsupport/src/plat/imx6/mux.c Function: mux_sys_init ... MAP_IF_NULL(io_ops, IMX6_IOMUXC, _mux.iomuxc); return imx6_mux_init_common(mux); The pointer "io_ops->mux_sys->priv" should point to the base address of the IOMUX of the SoC (in the virtual memory space of the calling process). The Ethernet driver unfortunately attempts to map the IOMUX again: Repo: seL4/util_libs File: libethdrivers/src/plat/imx6/uboot/mx6qsabrelite.c Function: setup_iomux_enet ... void *base = RESOURCE(&io_ops->io_mapper, IOMUXC); ... // Modify the IOMUX registers, then release the mapped IO: ... UNRESOURCE(&io_ops->io_mapper, IOMUXC, base); but using a larger size (the full 16Kb from the same base address of the IOMUX controller). So, the ethernet controller attempt to map the IO fails because it is already mapped, and nothing works. Right now in my project I've entirely commented out the initialization of the MUXC from the sel4platsupport_new_io_ops function. I understand that if the io_ops attempt to map the MUX (and leave it mapped) there must be a reason, unfortunately I fail to see it. The structure describing the MUXC register (struct imx6_iomuxc_regs, defined in libplatsupport/src/plat/imx6/mux.c) is private and not accessible outside that file, and the only two interface functions available (mux_feature_enable/mux_feature_disable) are not enough to be usable by the ethernet driver. The ethernet driver could also attempt to reuse the same mapped IOMUX (beside that the size of the mapped area is different and won't work anyway), but that will require using the 'priv' field of the io_ops->mux_sys (beside, even trying to map the whole 16Kb of the IOMUX and have the driver to reuse the same mapped address, for some unknown reasons it doesn't work). So, what is the right approach to fix this problem? Why the MUX subsystem maps some IO, never release it and keep it private for most of it? The IOMUX has been introduced somewhere between version 1.0 and 9.x... and it seems a half-baked job... Can we just comment it out if nobody is using it? Or if you have some ideas/suggestions on how to expand it in such a way the ethernet driver could use, please let me know. I'll be happy to implement it. Regards, Fabrizio

Problems with tk1 nonsecure
by Mike Clark 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

I just checked out a fresh copy of https://github.com/ SEL4PROJ/camkes-arm-vm-manifest and built an image for the TK1 using the docker build environment. I copied the resulting image to an SD card and it boots fine. If I switch to the unsecure mode, I get an error on boot. SMMU Address translation error: ID: 98 address: 0xae5be000 type: 6 direction: 0x0 IOPT permission: read 0x0 write 0x0 nonsecure 0x0 [ 10.204777] mmc1: ADMA error I have not made any changes, so my vm.smmu settings are all default. Any thoughts or help? Mike

Question about process and thread in tutorials
by 송대영 21 Jun '18

21 Jun '18

* I have question about process and thread in tutorials. 1. sel4 doesn't have process concept.But making new process is exist in tutorial hello-4.What is the exactly difference trhead in hello-2 and process in hello-4?2. In tutorials hello-4, where can I find access path that hello-4 process link hello-4-app?It means I think hello-4 process should designate hello-4-app's path.*

camkes and compcert
by Michael Neises 21 Jun '18

21 Jun '18

Hello, I understand that the proof for seL4 implies that the compiler and linker do not need to be trusted, because their output can be verified by a tool. Does this output-verification also apply to CAmkES C code for components and interfaces? Specifically, I'm working on a project where we want to have certain functionality implemented in C to be run on the seL4 microkernel. Would we gain any proof by using compcert, or is the output-verification sufficient? And is there any way to execute previously-compiled C binaries in a CAmkES component? I tried system calls, but I learned that won't work with the microkernel :-) I looked into the build architecture of the project, but I couldn't find where CAmkES components were being compiled. I looked into replacing gcc with compcert for the system, but there are used many flags available to gcc that are not available to compcert, so I scratched that idea. Thank you for your help. -Michael

Regarding porting SEL4 on RISCV hardware
by Sathya Narayanan N 15 Jun '18

15 Jun '18

Hi Members, I am trying to port SEL4 on RISCV hardware. I am stuck in finding the DTB/DTS files path in sel4test folder. Could someone guide me where these files exist and how to change the memory map for UART console. Actually, We changed the code for putchar in systems.c for Linux. So, I am trying to figure out, how to do something similar for SEL4. Please let me know, if someone has ported SEL$ to RISCV hardware. -- regards, Sathya
