Hi,

Due to an oversight on my part, seL4 10.1.0 was released without passing
the full verification test suite.

We have no reason to believe that there is any problem in the verified
parts of this seL4 version.

The test that failed is part of the binary translation validation, which
produces a dataflow graph from the Isabelle/HOL model of the C code, and
then attempts to automatically prove a refinement relation between the C
and that dataflow graph. The failure occurred in boot code, which in any
case is currently not verified. The failure does not mean that there is
any problem with the C code. Most likely, it just means that some new
code uses some C idiom which is currently not handled by the automatic
translation process.

All other components of the verification test suite pass, including
security proofs and functional correctness proofs for the Isabelle/HOL
model of the C code.

Nevertheless, we intend to rectify this failure as soon as possible, and
we'll make further announcements when we understand what happened.

I want to reiterate that this was entirely my fault, and was not at all
Kent's fault.

Best regards,
Matt

Subject: [seL4] seL4 10.1.0 and camkes-3.6.0

See an online copy of the release notes at:
<https://docs.sel4.systems/sel4_release/seL4_10.1.0>
<https://docs.sel4.systems/camkes_release/Camkes_3.6.0>

10.1.0 2018-11-07: SOURCE COMPATIBLE

## Changes

 * structures in the boot info are not declared 'packed'
    - these were previously packed (in the GCC attribute sense)
    - some field lengths are tweaked to avoid padding
    - this is a source-compatible change
 * ARM platforms can now set the trigger of an IRQ Handler capability
     - seL4_IRQControl_GetTrigger allows users to obtain an IRQ Handler 
capability
       and set the trigger (edge or level) in the interrupt controller.
 * Initial support for NVIDIA Jetson TX2 (ARMv8a, Cortex A57)
 * AARCH64 support added for raspberry pi 3 platform.
 * Code generation now use jinja2 instead of tempita.
 * AARCH32 HYP support added for running multiple ARM VMs
 * AARCH32 HYP VCPU registers updated.
 * A new invocation for setting TLSBase on all platforms.
     - seL4_TCB_SetTLSBase
 * Kbuild/Kconfig/Makefile build system removed.

----
camkes-3.6.0 2018-11-07
Using seL4 version 10.1.0

## Changes

* AARCH64 is now supported.
* CakeML components are now supported.
* Added `query` type to Camkes ADL to allow for querying plugins for component 
configuration values.
* Components can now make dtb queries to parse device information from dts 
files.
* Component definitions for serial and timer added on exynos5422, exynos5410, 
pc99.
* Preliminary support for Isabelle verification of generated capDL.
    - See cdl-refine-tests/README for more information
* Simplify and refactor the alignment and section linking policy for generated 
Camkes binaries.
* Dataports are now required to declare their size in the ADL.
* Templates now use seL4_IRQHandler instead of seL4_IRQControl, which is 
consistent with the seL4 API.
    - This change is BREAKING.
* Remove Kbuild based build system.
* Remove caches that optimised the Kbuild build system, which are not required 
with the new Cmake build system.
* Added virtqueue infrastructure to libsel4camkes, which allows virtio style 
queues between components.


## Upgrade Notes

* Any dataport definitions that did not specify a size must be updated to use a 
size.
* Any template that used seL4_IRQControl must be updated to use seL4_IRQHandler.
* Projects must now use the new Cmake based build system.
