Hi Benjamin, Device frames and DMA memory are two different things, at least in CAmkES.
DMA memory is allocated from a pool of memory which is initialised by CAmkES and is backed by _normal_ untyped memory. Device frames, as the name suggests is _device_ untyped memory. I hope that answers your question. PS: We have function wrappers around the ps_*_t structures. These make it easier to call specific functions within an interface. So for the io_mapper function, the wrapper is called `ps_io_map`. The wrappers can be found in the libplatsupport/include/platsupport folder of the util_libs repository.

I still have some unclarity about the DMA in seL4 and maybe you could help me again: With the seL4DTBHardware connection I created the following device frames, given paddr: 0x4a100000, size: 0x4000 device frame/untyped, paddr = 0x4a100000, size = 12 bits device frame/untyped, paddr = 0x4a101000, size = 12 bits device frame/untyped, paddr = 0x4a102000, size = 12 bits device frame/untyped, paddr = 0x4a103000, size = 12 bits If I am not mistaken these should already be allocated dma memory buffer and thus have a virtual address as well. So I try to retrieve the VADDR from the first device frame by invoking the following runtime API: ps_io_mapper_t *mapper = &io_ops->io_mapper; uintptr_t vaddr = (uintptr_t) mapper->io_map_fn(mapper->cookie, 0x4a100000, 0x4000,0, PS_MEM_NORMAL); Afterwards vaddr is a valid pointer (here: 0xab4000). However, by using the next runtime API I always receive a NULL pointer: uintptr_t paddr = camkes_dma_get_paddr(vaddr); Am I missing a step or is something else going wrong?

The low_level_init function in the PicoServer component is paired with the Ethdriver component. This reads in the MAC address that is given to each client of the Ethdriver component. The low_level_init function in the libethdrivers is also paired with the Ethdriver component but it reads in the MAC address assigned to the device. The reason why we have both is because the Ethdriver component was designed to have multiple clients connected to it, i.e. multiplexing a Ethernet card for multiple clients. This is an issue that we will eventually fix. 2) ethdriver_seL4Ethdriver_0.c is generated from the CAmkES template for the seL4DTBHardware connector. The template is located in camkes/templates/seL4DTBHardware-to.template.c in the CAmkES folder which will either be in projects/camkes-tool or tools/camkes from the root of the manifest directory, depending on which manifest you initialised your project from.

I simply adjusted the values in kernel/tools/dts/am335x.dts for now and kept the seL4DTBHardware connection. I have more questions: 1) There are 2 implementations of low_level_init - projects/global-components/components/PicoServer/src/eth_interface.c - projects/util_libs/libethdrivers/src/plat/am335x/beaglebone.c What decides which one to invoke? or is the in beaglebone.c not necessary at all? 2) How is projects/camkes/picoserver/ethdriver_seL4Ethdriver_0.c generated? I am debugging my current implementation which gets stuck before ethriver_mac().

The seL4DTBHardware connector doesn't support the AM335x board as the format of the interrupt fields in the DTS doesn't follow that of the ARM GIC. The page alignment problem is also a problem that I didn't encounter when developing the seL4DTBHardware connector, so thanks for the alert. So to resolve your problem you will have to use the seL4HardwareMMIO connector and ask it to make a 4K mapping at 0x4a100000 and 0x4a101000. You will also need to use the seL4HardwareInterrupt connector to generate the interrupts.
