Hi Genode folks, since the Information in my last email was a bit scarce here is a short follow up to my defence.
My thesis is based on the Microkernelizing Linux challenge of Genodes challenges [1]. > Thanks to Genode's generic interfaces for I/O access as provided by core, all > Genode device drivers including drivers ported from Linux and gPXE can be > executed as user-level components on all supported microkernels. However, so > far, we have not enabled the use of these device drivers on Linux as base > platform. The goal of this project is the systematic replacement of in-kernel > Linux device drivers by Genode processes running in user space, effectively > reducing the Linux kernel to a runtime for Genode's core process. But moving > drivers to Genode processes is just the beginning. By employing further > Genode functionality such as its native GUI, lwIP, and Noux, many protocol > stacks can effectively be removed from the Linux kernel. > > The goal of this project is to evaluate how small the Linux kernel can get > when used as a microkernel. I will present the the implemented concepts for native Genode drivers on Linux and a demo running on base-linux with a stripped down Linux kernel using the native fb_boot_drv and ps2_drv.
