Hello! I saw Microkit 2.0 has just been released, and it’s prompted a question I’ve been thinking about since before Microkit, when CaMKes was the main thing:
Both Microkit and Camkes are designed for embedded and/or static systems, where there is no detection/configuration of hardware at runtime, and in Microkit no swapping of components such as drivers. Is there any work ongoing to use seL4 for a general purpose operating system? Like, a situation where you may have e.g. PC style hardware that can have all sorts of reconfiguration between power-off and next boot, or even while booted and running. Of course this introduces a lot of attack surface, but it makes a lot more sense for a general purpose computer, rather than an embedded one. Is there any recent work/prior art on using seL4 outside of the context of deeply embedded systems? Thanks, Isaac _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list -- devel@sel4.systems To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@sel4.systems
