?Hi Grant,

Yes, currently seL4 only supports 32-bit guests. This is something we are 
working on ameliorating in the future, keep an eye on our upcoming releases.


I have an odroid-xu4 on my desk at the moment, as it will soon become a 
supported platform, but I haven't started the port yet. However I suspect it 
will only require minor changes to the exynos5410 (odroid-xu) which we already 
have arm hyp support for. The porti s scheduled to occur by the end of the year 
at the moment.


I don't think its very different from the xu4, and might work with only a few 
tweaks - they both have cortex-a15's.  There's minimal documentation available 
from the odroid-exynos platforms unless you sign an NDA with Samsung, so I've 
only got the device tree in the hardkernel linux branch to go on.


Cheers,

Anna.

Subject: [seL4] CAmkES VMM platform support

Hi all,

I was hoping someone could clarify for me a couple of points regarding the 
CAmkES VMMs. First off, I have a program I want to run under a linux VM within 
CAmkES. However, it is written in a language which can be compiled to x86-64 
but not IA-32. The impression I have gotten from the documentation and the 
examples is that the x86 CAmkES VMM only supports the 32-bit variant. Is that 
correct? My attempt to build the project targeting x86_64 has been met with 
errors (qemu complains "Huge page not supported by the processor").

Alternatively, said program can be compiled to ARMv6. In fact, the ultimate 
goal is for this project to run on an Odroid XU4, but as that platform is not 
currently supported by the CAmkES ARM VMM, I was hoping to build up the 
infrastructure as much as possible by testing it on any platform I could. The 
two platforms that are supported for the ARM VMM do not seem to have support on 
the qemu end though, so unfortunately I have no way of testing there either. Is 
it fair to assume that porting the Odroid implementation to the Odroid XU4 
would be a non-trivial undertaking, or are they perhaps more similar than I am 
imagining?

Thanks,
Grant Jurgensen
