seL4 test on x86
by Yevgeny Lavrov 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Hello, I'm new to seL4 and I'm just doing it for learning purpose. I'm trying to run seL4 test suite or simple hello world task from seL4 tutorials on the real hardware. So far I had no problems compiling seL4 test suite and running via QEMU for both x32 and x64 platforms. However, when I try to run it on the actual hardware following Running on real hardware tutorial for x86 I end up with no output at all and no error msgs that can give me a clue on where something went wrong. After compiling … [View More]

Stuck during invalidate local TLB in Tx2
by Muneeswaran Rajendran 15 Oct '24

15 Oct '24

Hi seL4 Dev team, Can someone explain the reason (share the reference) to invalidate the local TLB during kernel vspace activation as part CPU initialisation. The Tx2 board stuck while performing this operation. As per my understanding both Tx1 and Tx2 are using same A57 core. so the TLB initialisation and invalidation remain same for Tx2 and should not stuck during invalidation.Please correct me if anything wrong here. I understand from that instruction (tlbi vmalle1) which is invalidating … [View More]

Questions about Memory Management in seL4
by Daniel Wang 18 May '23

18 May '23

Hi all, Sorry to bother, I have some basic questions about seL4 memory management. Can someone help me? 1. where is the kernel’s address space? I know there are basically three methods: a) separate virtual address space, e.g. through changing page tables on entry into privileged mode to access b) physical space, e.g. through disable automatic hardware translation of virtual addresses on entry into privilege mode c) privilege region in each process’s virtual address space, e.g. through … [View More]

Generating CAmkES glue-spec and glue-proofs
by Ben Fiedler 11 May '21

11 May '21

Hi everyone, I'm having troubles generating the CAmkES glue component specification and proofs from our source. I can and have successfully generated the ADL/CDL spec and implementations using the documented CMake parameters. Grepping around the docs I've found references to a 'camkes.sh' script, but neither the project tree nor the files generated during build contain it. One candidate reason could be that we set up our build environment strangely: We currently check out seL4/camkes-… [View More]

Multiple ARM VMs with different CAmkES component configurations
by Olof Holmberg 11 May '21

11 May '21

Hi, I am currently performing research for my master thesis which involves seL4 and ideally retrofitting a SDN controller application for it. As a part of retrofitting applications for seL4 the suggested way is the incremental cyber retrofit approach wich involves dividing subsystems of the application onto several VMs that each runs in a VMM. Therefore I was wondering if it is currently possible to run several VMs on the ARM architecture that has different component configurations in CAmkES? … [View More]

Reducing memory footprint - RISC-V
by porter.188＠osu.edu 19 Apr '21

I'm trying to build a low memory footprint of RISC-V based seL4. I'm using QEMU/spike for now. In seL4 12.0 I can modify spike.dts to 8.5 MB of memory 0x00880000. 42 memory@80000000 { 43 device_type = "memory"; 44 reg = <0x00000000 0x80000000 0x00000000 0x00880000>; 45 }; This is the smallest value that builds, lower than this I get the error: [0/1] Re-running CMake... -- Found GCC with prefix riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu- STATUS,KernelDTSList: tools/dts/spike.dts -- /mnt/… [View More]
