Try two for libsel4 not having a dependency on libc
by Wink Saville 04 Jul '15

04 Jul '15

Here <https://github.com/winksaville/sel4-min-sel4/tree/new-libs> is a different approach for removing the libc dependency, it seemed like people thought libsel4 was to big and that as part of the effort of breaking the dependency it should be made smaller. Basically libsel4 does nothing expect satisfy dependency needed for the kernel for some xml files. And I've broken libsel4 into basically 8 other libraries. see here <https://github.com/winksaville/sel4-min-sel4/tree/new-libs/libs&… [View More]

Make seL4/libsel4 not depend upon libc
by Wink Saville 29 Jun '15

29 Jun '15

I noticed that seL4/libsel4 was dependent upon libc and so I created a patch ( https://github.com/winksaville/seL4/commit/fc91a1f68c054fdb41aaa42a7b56a80f…) which removes the dependency. If there is interest I can submit a pull request, and of course will make any changes deemed necessary to make it suitable for acceptance. Please advise, Wink

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?

Does sel4 support c++
by Yuxin Ren 19 Jun '15
