Re: [seL4] Questions about Vchan

We haven’t touched the vchan code in a while, and have pretty much stopped using vchan. We developed cross-vm dataports and events for x86[1], and will be starting work to complete those with cross-vm RPC and make that available on ARM too. Of course that doesn’t help you right now, but just letting you know. Ihor. [1] https://wiki.sel4.systems/CAmkESVM#Cross_VM_Connectors

Hey Daniel,

I had tried to setup the VM, and opened an issue on the camkes-arm-vm repo -https://github.com/SEL4PROJ/camkes-arm-vm/issues/3

The VChan is quite outdated. My issue should summarize what I had to do in order to get the system to compile.

Hi all,

I’m trying to figure out how to use the Vchan library to setup communication between guest OS and native components. I got couple questions how you can give me some advices.

1. I saw the camkes_vchan_con_t structure in the helloworld components (camkes-arm-vm), but I could not find the implementation for vchan_con_new_connection(), vchan_con_rem_connection(), etc. Are those autogenerated by camkes? If so how it is generated?

static camkes_vchan_con_t con = { .connect = &vchan_con_new_connection, .disconnect = &vchan_con_rem_connection, .get_buf = &vchan_con_get_buf, .status = &vchan_con_status,

.alert = &vchan_con_ping, .wait = &vevent_wait, .poll = &vevent_poll,

.dest_dom_number = 0, .source_dom_number = 50, };

2. I tried to compile the Vchan support and demo helloworld components for odroid-xu. But the compile shows error due to the VM.h file (camkes-arm-vm/projects/vm/components/VM/src/cmks_vchan_vm.c:23) cannot be found. How can I generate the VM.h file?

Thanks a lot!

Best Regards -Daniel Wang
