Questions about sel4bench IPC statistic in the website
by Zihan Yang 14 Aug '18

14 Aug '18

Hi, Your website(https://sel4.systems/About/Performance/home.pml) lists the IPC benchmark result, and I wonder is the x64 result for both fastpath, or both slowpath, or one fastpath and the other slowpath? According to the evaluation of my own on x64 kabylake, the fastpath client->server takes about 600 cycles, and slow path client->serve takes over 1100 cycles. But the website data is 1465 and 780, but it does not show whether it is fastpath or slow path. It looks like that the website data has client->server goes into slowpath(maybe because of lower priority), and the server->client goes into fastpath. Is it so? Thanks, Zihan

Hi, I am porting SEL4 on RISCV FPGA. I am stuck midway in the kernel elf loader. The function stuck is memcpy. I have added prints and I am not progressing after the last memcpy call in unpack_elf_to_paddr(). All kinds of input appreciated. Function under review: *static void unpack_elf_to_paddr(void *elf, paddr_t dest_paddr)* /* Parse size/length headers. */ dest_vaddr = elf_getProgramHeaderVaddr(elf, i); data_size = elf_getProgramHeaderFileSize(elf, i); data_offset = elf_getProgramHeaderOffset(elf, i); /* Load data into memory. */ * memcpy((char *)dest_vaddr + phys_virt_offset,* * (char *)elf + data_offset, data_size);* * printf("loaded data into memory \n"); -----> Stuck Here !* } } *Can anyone give me a clue on whatsoever to check here ? **It worked perfectly in spike simulation.* *RISCV FPGA configuration* - It supports IMAFD.

sel4 thread creation problem
by Leonid Meyerovich 08 Aug '18

08 Aug '18

Hello, My platform is ARM (zynqmp), seL4 v8. I have created a timer in simple initial thread: int err; seL4_timer_t timer; vka_object_t ntfn_object; ntfn_object.cptr = 0; err = vka_alloc_notification(&_env.vka, &ntfn_object); assert(err == 0); err = sel4platsupport_init_default_timer(&_env.vka, &_env.vspace, &_env.simple, ntfn_object.cptr, &timer); err = ltimer_set_timeout(&timer.ltimer, NS_IN_MS * 20, TIMEOUT_PERIODIC); assert(err == 0); int count = 0; int count_s = 0; while (1) { /* Handle the timer interrupt */ seL4_Word badge; seL4_Wait(ntfn_object.cptr, &badge); printf("time_thread: badge=%lx\n", badge); sel4platsupport_handle_timer_irq(&timer, badge); count++; if ((count / 50) * 50 == count) { count_s++; printf("-----------------timer=%d %d\n", count, count_s); } } It works fine (I am not sure why TIMESTAMP timer interrupt coming every ~40 sec, but it's not an issue right now) Now I am trying to move all this timer code into a new thread, which I have created in the same vspace // create thread void initSleep(env_t penv) //seL4_BootInfo *info) { _penv = penv; vka_object_t tcb_object = {0}; int error = vka_alloc_tcb(&penv->vka, &tcb_object); seL4_CPtr cspace_cap; cspace_cap = simple_get_cnode(&penv->simple); seL4_CPtr pd_cap; pd_cap = simple_get_pd(&penv->simple); seL4_CPtr ipc_page; seL4_Word ipc_buffer = (seL4_Word)vspace_new_ipc_buffer(&penv->vspace, &ipc_page); error = seL4_TCB_Configure(tcb_object.cptr, , seL4_NilData, cspace_cap, seL4_NilData, pd_cap, seL4_NilData, ipc_buffer, ipc_page); error = seL4_TCB_SetPriority(tcb_object.cptr, simple_get_tcb(&penv->simple), seL4_MaxPrio); seL4_UserContext regs = { .pc = (seL4_Word)time_thread, .sp = (seL4_Word)thread_time_stack }; error = seL4_TCB_WriteRegisters(tcb_object.cptr, 0, 0, 2, &regs); error = seL4_TCB_Resume(tcb_object.cptr); } And this is thread function static void time_thread(void) { _tick_number = 0; int count_s = 0; init_timer(); while (1) { /* Handle the timer interrupt */ seL4_Word badge; seL4_Wait(timer_ntfn_object.cptr, &badge); printf("time_thread: badge=%lx\n", badge); sel4platsupport_handle_timer_irq(&timer, badge); _tick_number++; if ((_tick_number / 50) * 50 == _tick_number) { count_s++; printf("-----------------timer=%lu %d\n", _tick_number, count_s); } } The system crashed: setup_irq@timer.c:81 Setting up IRQ 8000000000000000 <<seL4(CPU 0) [handleInvocation/281 T0xff8000001200 "child of: 'rootserver'" @42195c]: Invocation of invalid cap #48762580.>> Here is dump: /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/sel4_arch/functions.h:23 421938: d53bd066 mrs x6, tpidrro_el0 setup_irq(): /home/lm/sel4vm/libs/libsel4platsupport/src/timer.c:85 error = seL4_IRQHandler_SetNotification(irq->handler_path.capPtr, irq->badged_ntfn_path.capPtr); 42193c: f85c8340 ldur x0, [x26,#-56] arm_sys_send_recv(): /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/sel4_arch/syscalls.h:165 register seL4_Word msg1 asm("x3") = *in_out_mr1; 421940: d2800003 mov x3, #0x0 // #0 seL4_SetCap(): /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/arch/functions.h:59 421944: f901e8c1 str x1, [x6,#976] arm_sys_send_recv(): /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/sel4_arch/syscalls.h:166 register seL4_Word msg2 asm("x4") = *in_out_mr2; 421948: d2800004 mov x4, #0x0 // #0 /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/sel4_arch/syscalls.h:167 register seL4_Word msg3 asm("x5") = *in_out_mr3; 42194c: d2800005 mov x5, #0x0 // #0 /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/sel4_arch/syscalls.h:170 register seL4_Word scno asm("x7") = sys; 421950: 92800007 mov x7, #0xffffffffffffffff // #-1 /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/sel4_arch/syscalls.h:161 register seL4_Word info asm("x1") = info_arg; 421954: d2941001 mov x1, #0xa080 // #41088 421958: f2a00021 movk x1, #0x1, lsl #16 /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/sel4_arch/syscalls.h:171 asm volatile ( 42195c: d4000002 hvc #0x0 seL4_MessageInfo_get_label(): /home/lm/sel4vm/stage/arm/zynqmp/include/sel4/shared_types_gen.h:49 I suspect that my thread initialization is not right, can somebody see any problem?

Hi I changed it to: ../init-build.sh -DPLATFORM=sabre -DCROSS_COMPILER_PREFIX=arm-none-eabi- -DCAMKES_APP=adder -DSIMULATE=1 -Dc_std=gnu99 and it worked for ninja build. But when started simulation by ./simulate the error is: qemu-system-arm: -kernel images/capdl-loader-image-arm-imx6: unsupported machine type Use -machine help to list supported machines How could I choose the machine type? Thanks! Sincerely

Combined Ada and C project with Kbuild
by Noah Kennedy 08 Aug '18

08 Aug '18

I'm currently working on a project that is using the old Kbuild system. The project has been primarily implemented in C, however we would like to integrate some Ada code into the project. I am familiar with how to use gcc and makefiles to build polyglot projects on linux, however, I have no idea how to do so with the Kbuild system, as I cannot find out how to build anything other than .c or .h files with the makefile. How would I go about adding ada code to the project? Is there any way for me to build .ads and .adb, or .a files with the makefile?
