The system call "Hello World"

In our docker image, we have a system call that prints "Hello World"  from the kernel space.
Its code is in:
~/Downloads/pcs3746-sistemas-operacionais/1/linux/sys_hello_world$ ls
built-in.o  Makefile  modules.builtin  modules.order  sys_hello_world.c  sys_hello_world.o
Modify it: change the string to print. That is your first modification in a kernel!
Make init.c as in:
~/Downloads/pcs3746-sistemas-operacionais/1/initramfs$ more init.c
#include "hello_world.h"

int main()
{
   while (1) {
      hello_world();
   }
   return 0;
}
This will make a lot of messages from the kernel in your terminal.
When you run it through:
~/Downloads/pcs3746-sistemas-operacionais/1$ ./run.sh 
the kernel and rootfs are remade.

Basics on ARM processor

Imagem
I am also teaching "Laboratory of Microprocessors" focusing ARM. I use  ARM Lab Manual  for the first experiences.  I have been asking students to install a tool chain in ubuntu to develop experiments in the simulator provided by arm-...-gdb. Last year, one team made everything as the docker image: https://github.com/EpicEric/gcc-arm.git In order to use it:  git clone https://github.com/EpicEric/gcc-arm.git See README.md  cd gcc-arm/ ./build_docker.sh emacs # any other editor that you prefer; perhaps, you will need sudo,and perhaps gedit suchs as:                sudo ./build_docker.sh gedit docker run --rm -ti -v "$PWD/src":/home/student/src epiceric/gcc-arm Note that your directory $PWD/src is attached to /home/student/src. In this docker image, we have 2 tool-chains: arm-elf and arm-none-eabi. In the first part of the course, we are using arm-elf. We will use arm-none-eabi to deal with ...

Assignments - 1

Imagem
My Operating System course has, generally, 4 to 5 assignments corresponding to each chapter of the book: " Operating Systems Design and Implementation, Third Edition ", i.e., 1. Introduction, 2. Processes, 3. Input and Output, 4. Memory and 5. File Systems. For the first assignment, I ask students to implement a simple system call. Generally, I divide the class into 10 teams which are given 10 different tasks. General Instructions to the First Assignment A system call makes a software interrupt. All teams must install docker and Shibata's work, visualize the switch from user to kernel mode following:  http://linux-kernel-lab.blogspot.com.br/2018/04/arm-linux-kernel-on-docker-image-with.html http://linux-kernel-lab.blogspot.com.br/2018/04/first-run.html http://linux-kernel-lab.blogspot.com.br/2018/04/first-init.html http://linux-kernel-lab.blogspot.com.br/2018/04/rebuilding-new-docker-image.html http://linux-kernel-lab.blogspot.com.br/2018/04/creating-new-te...

2. run gdb

So far you must have two terminals on your docker container: One that shows the output of qemu ... -s -S One that is in a bash. See that you can give commands such as: ls, cd, etc.  You see something like this: $ docker exec -ti upbeat_khorana bash root@db40c62a2c8d:/# su student To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>". See "man sudo_root" for details. student@db40c62a2c8d:/$ alias alias alert='notify-send --urgency=low -i "$([ $? = 0 ] && echo terminal || echo error)" "$(history|tail -n1|sed -e '\''s/^\s*[0-9]\+\s*//;s/[;&|]\s*alert$//'\'')"' alias egrep='egrep --color=auto' alias fgrep='fgrep --color=auto' alias gdb='arm-none-eabi-gdb -ex '\''target remote:1234'\'' /home/student/src/linux/vmlinux' alias grep='grep --color=auto' alias l='ls -CF' alias la='ls ...
