How to edit RefOS libs c file
by ぷ风过无痕?? 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

Hi, I am using RefOS to develop a small applicaiton(interprocess comunicaion).I need to edit some c files in RefOS/libs/librefos directory,But comments say that do not edit these files,these files were generated by CIDL.CIDL is a simple C IDL compiler which is made to save the trouble of manually implementing RPC interface stubs to marshal C style arguments and return value. It uses a simple XML-based IDL language. I search on the google，but just got some introduction. So where can I got some … [View More]useful infomation about CIDL? Can you recommend some books or websites? ------------------ Original ------------------ From: "devel-request";<devel-request(a)sel4.systems>; Date: Sun, Jun 21, 2015 10:00 AM To: "devel"<devel(a)sel4.systems>; Subject: Devel Digest, Vol 13, Issue 11 Send Devel mailing list submissions to devel(a)sel4.systems To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit https://sel4.systems/lists/listinfo/devel or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to devel-request(a)sel4.systems You can reach the person managing the list at devel-owner(a)sel4.systems When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Devel digest..."

Does sel4 support c++
by Yuxin Ren 20 Jun '15

20 Jun '15

Hi, Can I run C++ programs on sel4? I am not familiar with programming language. I do not know the relationship between the OS and the C++ language. In order to run C++, does the OS need to provide some support or what user level library are needed? Thanks a lot. Yuxin

Sel4 and Network
by Haselauer Lukas - S1410304006 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

Hello, My name is Lukas and I am currently studying in Austria. I am currently using sel4 in a student's project. We are using CAmkES to develop a small application (on the imx6-platform), and some things already work fine :-) But when it comes to networking, we are totally without results. We tried using some of the excisting libraries (libethdrivers + libplatsupport + liblwip) - but without success. My question is: Which way can I go if I want my CAmkES Apps to communicate via ethernet? … [View More]

I would like to start from scratch - simple thread or process creation helloworld in seL4. I saw there are some examples in "sel4test/app" of seL4 application, but I am looking for something smaller. I have found here on page 39 "Creating a Thread in Own AS and cspace_t" http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs9242/14/lectures/01-intro.pdf example of thread creation. Unfortunetly I cannot find header file with " cspace_ut_retype_addr" or "ut_alloc". Are they obsolete, any replacements? Are there any … [View More]

why do there are some differences between camkes branch and master branch in lib seL4/libsel4muslcsys
by Pei.XiLong(裴喜龙) 29 May '15

29 May '15

Hi, Siwei Zhuang, Why do there are some differences between camkes branch and master branch in lib seL4/libsel4muslcsys? The lib seL4/libsel4muslcsys is the foundation of libmuslc, it shoud be a libc for any seL4 program, and there should be no diference among any branches. https://github.com/seL4/libsel4muslcsys/commits/camkes Xilong Pei Tongji University 2015/5/29
