A long long time ago, in a galaxy^W^W^W we used DDE kit to ease the porting of purely C based drivers. By now it became clear, that we do not gain that much by following this approach. DDE kit contains much generic functionality, which is not used or rather not needed by most ported drivers. Hence, we implement a slim C wrapper on top of Genode's C++ APIs, that is especially tailored to the driver. In addition to removing the dependency on DDE kit, the iPXE driver now uses the server framework and the newly introduced signal based IRQ handling. Issue #1456. |

This repository contains the Device Driver Environment for the "donator OS" iPXE available from http://ipxe.org/. For building DDE iPXE, you first need to fetch and patch the original sources. The top-level makefile of this repository automates this task. Just issue: ! make prepare Now, you need to include the DDE iPXE repository into your Genode build process. Just add the path to this directory to the 'REPOSITORIES' declaration of the 'etc/build.conf' file within your build directory, for example ! REPOSITORIES += $(GENODE_DIR)/repos/dde_ipxe After successful build the DDE iPXE based ethernet driver is located at 'bin/nic_drv'.
