Vancouver can now assign block devices to guests using the Block interface. The machine has to be configured to use a specified drive, which could be theoretically routed to different partitions or services via policy definitions. Currently the USB driver only supports one device. Genode's AHCI driver is untested. If the session quota is too low, random pagefaults can occur on the stack. According to @Nils-TUD, it is necessary to protect the DiskCommit messages with a lock against deadlocking with the timer. Observations showed that this mitigates some problems with Gentoo on real hardware.
This directory contains ports of popular 3rd-party applications to Genode. The 'ports' repository follows the line of the 'libports' repository. For instructions about downloading and building 3rd-party applications, please refer to 'libports/README'. Dependencies from other repositories ------------------------------------ Application provided by the 'ports' repository typically expect a rich runtime environment, including shared libraries provided by the 'libports' repository. Hence, 'ports' depends on 'libports'. Furthermore, applications may require additional repositories. For example, the Arora web browser depends on the 'qt4' repository.
