When rebasing my local branch on top of sculpt-21.10 tag I've noticed two problems. The code in new_delete.cc does not include new header file. This works fine with GCC, but fails with clang because std::align_val_t type is not defined anywhere according to clang. It looks like GCC pulls this header indirectly somehow. The second problem can be seen if one disallows undefined symbols in executables and shared_libraries. This can be seen with both GCC and clang by adding --no-undefined to LD_OPT. With such change in place core fails to link due to: ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: operator delete(void*, std::align_val_t) >>> referenced by thread.h:448 (/home/tworaz/devel/genode/repos/base-hw/src/core/kernel/thread.h:448) >>> thread.o:(Kernel::Core_main_thread::~Core_main_thread()) in archive debug/core-hw-virt_qemu.a >>> referenced by thread.h:448 (/home/tworaz/devel/genode/repos/base-hw/src/core/kernel/thread.h:448) >>> thread.o:(non-virtual thunk to Kernel::Core_main_thread::~Core_main_thread()) in archive debug/core-hw-virt_qemu.a >>> did you mean: operator delete(void*, unsigned long, std::align_val_t) >>> defined in: debug/core-hw-virt_qemu.a(supc++.o) If the code would somehow manage call such undefined symbol it'd crash. Since I generally prefer link time failures to runtime crashes I link all genode binaries with --no-undefined. To fix this problem just add a dummy implementation of missing delete operator.

=================================
Genode Operating System Framework
=================================
This is the source tree of the reference implementation of the Genode OS
architecture. For a general overview about the architecture, please refer to
the project's official website:
:Official project website for the Genode OS Framework:
[https://genode.org/documentation/general-overview]
The current implementation can be compiled for 8 different kernels: Linux,
L4ka::Pistachio, L4/Fiasco, OKL4, NOVA, Fiasco.OC, seL4, and a custom
kernel for running Genode directly on ARM-based hardware. Whereas the Linux
version serves us as development vehicle and enables us to rapidly develop the
generic parts of the system, the actual target platforms of the framework are
microkernels. There is no "perfect" microkernel - and neither should there be
one. If a microkernel pretended to be fit for all use cases, it wouldn't be
"micro". Hence, all microkernels differ in terms of their respective features,
complexity, and supported hardware architectures.
Genode allows the use of each of the kernels listed above with a rich set of
device drivers, protocol stacks, libraries, and applications in a uniform way.
For developers, the framework provides an easy way to target multiple different
kernels instead of tying the development to a particular kernel technology. For
kernel developers, Genode contributes advanced workloads, stress-testing their
kernel, and enabling a variety of application use cases that would not be
possible otherwise. For users and system integrators, it enables the choice of
the kernel that fits best with the requirements at hand for the particular
usage scenario.
Documentation
#############
The primary documentation is the book "Genode Foundations", which is available
on the front page of Genode website:
:Download the book "Genode Foundations":
[https://genode.org]
The book describes Genode in a holistic and comprehensive way. It equips you
with a thorough understanding of the architecture, assists developers with the
explanation of the development environment and system configuration, and
provides a look under the hood of the framework. Furthermore, it contains the
specification of the framework's programming interface.
The project has a quarterly release cycle. Each version is accompanied with
detailed release documentation, which is available at the documentation
section of the project website:

Directory overview
##################
The source tree is composed of the following subdirectories:
:'doc':
This directory contains general documentation along with a comprehensive
collection of release notes.
:'repos':
This directory contains the source code, organized in so-called source-code
repositories. Please refer to the README file in the 'repos' directory to
learn more about the roles of the individual repositories.
:'tool':
Source-code management tools and scripts. Please refer to the README file
contained in the directory.
:'depot':
Directory used by Genode's package-management tools. It contains the public
keys and download locations of software providers.
Additional community-maintained components
##########################################
The components found within the main source tree are complemented by a growing
library of additional software, which can be seamlessly integrated into Genode
system scenarios.
