Use git to get recent kernels from github. Adjust NOVA patch to compile with recent github version. Patch and use makefile of NOVA microkernel to avoid duplicated (and outdated) makefile in Genode Furthermore, this patch adds support for using NOVA on x86_64. The generic part of the syscall bindings has been moved to 'base-nova/include/nova/syscall-generic.h'. The 32/64-bit specific parts are located at 'base-nova/include/32bit/nova/syscalls.h' and 'base-nova/include/64bit/nova/syscalls.h' respectively. On x86_64, the run environment boots qemu using the Pulsar boot loader because GRUB legacy does not support booting 64bit ELF executables. In addition to the NOVA-specific changes in base-nova, this patch rectifies compile-time warnings or build errors in the 'ports' and 'libports' repositories that are related to NOVA x86_64 (i.e., Vancouver builds for 32bit only and needed an adaptation to NOVAs changed bindings) Fixes #233, fixes #234
This is generic part of the Genode implementation. It consists of two parts: :_Core_: is the ultimate root of the Genode application tree and provides abstractions for the lowest-level hardware resources such as RAM, ROM, CPU, and generic device access. All generic parts of Core can be found here - for system-specific implementations refer to the appropriate 'base-<system>' directory. :_Base libraries and protocols_: that are used by each Genode component to interact with other components. This is the glue that holds everything together.
