Oops, looked like I stomped on the closing brace in the Namespace Arm
declaration in .../core/processor_driver/arm.h during a merge. Not sure
why the compiler didn't catch that, but the core library now builds.
I've one issue with an application module which I'll fix tomorrow then
get to test the kernel start up again.
Thanks,
Bob

Yes, Martin, I did a make clean after the pull. Still looking as to
why the Arm namespace shows up above Genode. Let you when I find it.

Btw. hope you have done 'make clean' after your Makefile changes.
Otherwise this could cause the build system to act strange.

Hi Bob,
Looks like there's a problem with the name spaces. Instead of being
comprised by 'Arm', 'Genode' should be a top-level name space as
well as 'Kernel'. I think it would be a good idea to investigate why
the 'Arm' prefix is active at all at 'double_list.h:95'.

Hi Martin,
Been out-of-town for the past few days.
I understand the changes due to issue 1199 and I did create the
core library make file (in base-hw/lib/mk/platform_bbb) for the
platform I'm working with before I left. Everything built ok until
it got to /cpu_session_component.c/ in the core library build
section where multiple errors occurred. The following error would
indicate I'm missing something fundamental:

Regarding the page fault in the ROM fs initialization, I did not
isolate the route cause -- it appeared to be getting a low address
of 0x1000 and try to create a translation table entry with that. I
thought I saw some changes in the ROM area in the pull, so I was
going to get a clean build and then try again.

Hey Bob,
The changes you're talking about originate from this issue:
https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/issues/1199. Core now
consists of a generic 'base-hw/src/core/target.mk' that solely
defines the target name and a dependency to the library 'core'.
All the other content that core is composed of resides in the
variant 'core.mk' and 'core.inc' library-description files within
'base-hw/lib/mk' and its sub-directories (respectively 'core-*.mk'
and 'core-*.inc' for libraries that are additions to the core
library).
At the one hand these changes reduce redundancy and LOC count as
hardware-specifics were split up more fine-grained when transfered
into libraries, at the other hand we unified the scheme of
handling orthogonal specifiers (see for example the
core-trustzone* files that provide optional trustzone support for
different platform specifiers). Apart from that, the commits
didn't change that much regarding the substance of core.
I hope this short insight helps you applying your changes to the
current state. If you have further questions on this don't
hesitate to ask.
Regarding the page fault: Does that mean that you were able to fix
the fault?
Cheers
Martin

Martin,
Have not been able to build with the pull from the master
branch. Looks like there are changes to base-hw build that I've
not seen before. The platform target.mk file now appear in a
repos//base-hw/lib/mk/ directory as core.mk. Is there
documentation on the changes? I searched the git repository but
couldn't find any.
The mmu faulting address was coming from the creation of
Rom_modules in the ROM fs.
Thanks,
Bob

Thanks for the quick reply, Martin.
I'll pull the current master branch tomorrow and let you know if
it fixes my issue.
Thanks for the debugging tip on core faults.
My core-only mmio regions are the same as they were in 14.02 and
unless the handling of the region has changed I should have the
correct translation table entries. My PDBG output from the
_mmu_exception method was:
/void Kernel::Thread::_mmu_exception(): f_addr 0x1008 f_writes
0x1 f_pd 0x813d6004 f_signal 0x0 label core//
/
Looks like I've a problem with the fault address, so I'll keep
digging to see where that is coming from.
Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,

I went back to the 14.05 issues today and found I could get the kernel
initialization to complete successfully if I reverted the S bit to
"unshared" in the memory attributes in a Section entry create. Prior to
14.05 this bit was set to "unshared" and was presumably changed in 14.05
to allow for multiple processors accessing the same memory regions.
We had an issue (https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/issues/1181)
recently that the shared-bit should be set only when using SMP. The
related changes are in the current state of our master branch
(https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/tree/master) but not in version
14.05. Could you please give it a try?
In addition, after completing kernel initialization, core's "main"
function is entered, the info message for creating local services shows
up, a translation for the top of RAM (0x80000000) is created, then the
message "failed to communicate thread event" occurs and init is never
called. Any thoughts on why that message is appearing would be
appreciated. It appears to be coming from initialization of the root
interfaces.
This seems to be a page fault in core. Normally core should never
trigger a page fault because there's no one to handle it. So the kernel
doesn't know who to inform about it and thus prints this message. To
prevent this situation, memory regions statically needed by core
(program image, MMIO regions) get mapped 1:1 in the 'Core_pd'
constructor in 'base-hw/src/core/kernel/kernel.cc' using, among others,
the platform specific method 'Platform::_core_only_mmio_regions'. I
assume that your port misses a region in this function. You can get
further information about the page fault by printing things like
'_fault_addr', '_fault_writes', 'char const * Thread::label()', and
'unsigned long Thread::ip' in the method 'Thread::_mmu_exception()' in
'base-hw/src/core/arm/cpu_support.cc' right before '_fault.submit()'.
