Hi seL4-hackers,
I am porting the sel4test project to my custom target board, which contains an ARM Cortex-A7 core. The porting work is based on NVidia TK1 Cortex-A15 platform. In current stage, the seL4 kernel has booted up and the test benches can be tested. I can pass all tests except for the timer tests (turn off CONFIG_HAVE_TIMER). In my target, only ARM generic timer is used.
My questions are: 1. Are the timer tests (CONFIG_HAVE_TIMER) designed for other platform timer besides ARM generic timer? If I only use ARM generic timer, should these timer tests be passed?
2. My goal is to running Linux with seL4 VMM on my target. The sel4platsupport_get_default_timer() is platform specific. If I only use ARM generic timer, should sel4platsupport_get_default_timer() be ported to return the ARM generic timer? If yes, is there any example for me to reference?
BRs, Jesse
