1. Is there a simple way to relate a virtual address in the initial threads address space to the corresponding frame cap in the BootInfo?
Will leave this one to our kernel experts..
2. In 8.2.2 of the manual it is stated in that "seL4 provides no way to obtain the physical address of a page from its capability". Isn't that exactly what the GetAddress method of a Page object does(10.4.14)?
Nice ;-) This is a classic documentation problem where it’s hard to find (or be aware of) such statements when you make the change in the code. This used to be true, but is not any more. We’ll remove the sentence from the manual. Cheers, Gerwin
