Dear Codezero community,
we have recently released a new version of the Genode OS Framework [1],
which is a feature-rich userland that can be used on various
microkernels - including Codezero. For this release, our Codezero
support underwent a major upgrade, thereby, making the use of the kernel
with the framework easier than ever. For example, building and executing
an interactive graphical demo on Codezero (via Qemu) can be accomplished
with the following simple steps (assuming Genode has been downloaded to
<genode-dir> [2] and the tool chain is installed [3]):
* Download the Codezero kernel
cd <genode-dir>
make -C base-codezero prepare
* Create a build directory
./tool/create_builddir codezero_vpb926 BUILD_DIR=build
* Build and execute the demo using Qemu
make -C build run/demo
Thanks to the new streamlined work flows, we have started to use
Codezero for testing on a regular basis. However, we are still working
with the latest version found in Codezero's Git repository, which seems
to gain dust recently. My question to the Codezero developers: Do you
accept patches for your official Git repository? If yes, I would be
happy to provide you with a few patches (mostly regarding the support
for newer tool versions) as follow-up postings to this email.
My best regards
Norman
