Move repositories to 'repos/' subdirectory
This patch changes the top-level directory layout as a preparatory step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes. The rationale is described in the issue referenced below. Issue #1082

Genode's Rump Kernel kernel port
|
||||
================================
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains the Genode version of the [http://wiki.netbsd.org/rumpkernel/ - rump kernel].
|
||||
The kernel is currently used to gain file-system access from within Genode. In
|
||||
order to achieve that, a Genode file-system server is located at
|
||||
_src/server/rump_fs_. For accessing the server through the libc, the _libc_fs_
|
||||
plugin can be facilitated, which is available in the _libports_ repository.
|
||||
|
||||
Building instructions
|
||||
#####################
|
||||
|
||||
In order to build the file-system server, issue
|
||||
|
||||
! make prepare
|
||||
|
||||
from the directory this file is contained in.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Add
|
||||
|
||||
! REPOSITORIES += $(GENODE_DIR)/repos/dde_rump
|
||||
|
||||
to your _etc/build.conf_ file of you build directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally,
|
||||
|
||||
! make server/rumps_fs
|
||||
|
||||
called from your build directory will build the server. You may also specify
|
||||
|
||||
! make run/rump_ext2
|
||||
|
||||
to run a simple test scenario.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
#############
|
||||
|
||||
Here is an example snippet that configures the server:
|
||||
|
||||
!<start name="rump_fs">
|
||||
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="8M" />
|
||||
! <provides><service name="File_system"/></provides>
|
||||
! <config fs="ext2fs"><policy label="" root="/" writeable="yes"/></config>
|
||||
!</start>
|
||||
|
||||
The server is looking for a service that provides a Genode block session. If
|
||||
there is more than one block session in the system, the block session must be
|
||||
routed to the right block-session server. The value of the _fs_ attribute of
|
||||
the _config_ node can be one of the following: _ext2fs_ for EXT2, _cd9660_ for
|
||||
ISO-9660, or _msdos_ for FAT file-system support. _root_ defines the directory
|
||||
of the file system as seen as root directory by the client. The server hands
|
||||
most of its RAM quota to the rump kernel. This means the larger the quota is,
|
||||
the larger the internal block caches of the rump kernel will be.
