Sydney get-together on seL4 Day?
by Gernot Heiser 20 Jul '22

20 Jul '22

This is only of interest for those physically in Sydney. We have seL4 Day coming up (29 July, the 13th anniversary of completion of the seL4 verification and 8th anniversary of its open-sourcing). It would be great to use the occasion to get together. The continuing abnormal (i.e. very wet) weather in Sydney makes planning such an event difficult (and I’ll be on leave and out of town until the evening of the 28th), so things may have to happen on short notice. But weather permitting, a BYO BBQ in Maroubra would be great, and I would really love to catch up with the rest of the Sydney-based seL4 community. So I suggest people interested save the date (and let us know if you’re interested). Gernot

suggestion; update faq reference to ODROID-C2
by Van Ly 18 Jul '22

18 Jul '22

Hello, The faq section on "How can I build a system with seL4?" [1] has an obsoleted/discountinued product pointing to ODROID-C2 [2] a current product such as the one from OnLogic can replace, perhaps. [3] ``` If you have access to an Odroid-C2, you should be able to do the project work yourself as a way of familiarising yourself with seL4. ``` [1] https://docs.sel4.systems/projects/sel4/frequently-asked-questions.html [2] https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-c2/ [3] https://www.onlogic.com/industrial-raspberry-pi/ -- vl

Systems with multiple PCI root complexes
by Peter Chubb 18 Jul '22

18 Jul '22

Has anyone extended the code in https://github.com/seL4/util_libs libpci to handle multiple root complexes? See bug https://github.com/seL4/util_libs/issues/131 I know genode added code to handle this, but they don't use that library.

sel4 smmuv2.0 on tx2 related questions
by Tao Heng 陶恒-SW 13 Jul '22

13 Jul '22

Hi sel4-devs, I have been trying to make some understandings of smmuv2.0 features provided by sel4. According to the vmm project for the tx2 platform, such as the vm_minimal apps, after all the compiling, there will be two caps,vm0_sid and vm0_cb,which is supposed to be used for stage2 address translation. My questions are as followed: 1. Which smmu device was the sid cap assigned to ? 2. How were these two caps created in the cdl file? There seems no special configuration for Cmakes that is related to the caps. 3. According to the tx2.dts, there are many sid numbers assigned to the smmu device. Why was there just one sid cap created by sel4? 邮件免责申明 Email Disclaimer 本邮件仅供本邮件指定收件人使用，其所载内容可能因含有保密信息或其它原因而不得披露。除本公司及本邮件指定收件人外，任何人不得公开、传播、分发、复制、印刷或使用本邮件之任何部分或其所载之任何内容。如您误收到本邮件，请立即通知本公司，并将原始邮件、附件及其所有复本从系统中删除，切勿使用。 This email is for the use of the designated receivers only，and the content is not allowed to be disclosed due to the confidential information or other reasons.

Anyone using capability transfer in an seL4 project? Looking for examples for research
by sjwebb＠student.unimelb.edu.au 12 Jul '22

12 Jul '22

Hi all, I'm working on a Masters research project looking into mapping an object-capability programming language onto seL4, in a way that includes some kind of mapping from the language object capabilities onto seL4's capabilities (or vice versa). I'm at a stage of the project now where it would be really helpful to have some 'motivating examples' for transferring caps between threads/CSpaces. So I was hoping I could reach out to other seL4 developers to see if they had built any systems that made extensive use of moving capabilities around. Ideally, in an ocap language, these examples would be much easier to program than they currently would be in C... The simplest example I can think of is a memory allocation server, but that wouldn't necessarily involve handing caps on beyond the one (requesting) process, which is the kind of thing I think more interesting examples would comprise of. Cheers, Stewart Webb [Masters Research student at University of Melbourne]

Re: Running RISC-V seL4 in QEMU 7.0.50
by Ahmed Charles 12 Jul '22

12 Jul '22

I'm having similar issues getting seL4test to work on riscv32/64 on QEMU 6.0.0 and 7.0.0. I tried debugging with a connected gdb, but I'm new at this and setting breakpoints in user mode seems to fail, so I'm not sure what happens once the root task starts, other than it eventually runs an infinite loop (0: j 0b, specifically). Any ideas? Thanks.
