Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog: November 2012
http://jiri-svoboda.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog. Monday, November 12, 2012. It looks like there is again. A proposal to standardize modules in C. This would be very nice if successful. While I don't care that much about C , it has been the trend lately that ISO C picks up useful C features (e.g. threads). So who knows, maybe, maybe. We could finally get modules in C, after 40 years? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). JakUB - Jakub's Universal Blog. Running HelenOS/sparc64 in gem5. View my complete profile.

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog: January 2011
http://jiri-svoboda.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog. Monday, January 3, 2011. Observations on HelenOS device drivers framework. Some time ago we merged Lenkas new Device Drivers Framework (DDF henceforth) to HelenOS mainline. When I finally read through her thesis and had a closer look at the code I promised to do a writeup of my observations. Here it is. A bit of a long read though, be warned. Lets start with a quick overview. Lenkas contribution can be broken down into several parts. First there is the.

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog: July 2011

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog. Friday, July 8, 2011. Will ARM architecture go 64-bit? For some time now I have been thinking about the increasing memory capacities of mobile devices and the fact that the ARM architecture, upon which they are built, is still 32-bit only. This was puzzling for me, so I decided to dig around a little. The results are more than interesting. Apparently, in November last year (2010) rumors started spreading that ARM holdings is working on a 64-bit ARM processor (see Xbit labs.

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog. Wednesday, November 23, 2011. TCP the truth will be revealed. I have long before recognized that the current network stack in HelenOS is messed up beyond repair and trying to fix it anymore is a waste of time. Since it's been two years after the master thesis was defended and we still do not have something that would work, it might not be well received by others if I threw everything out and started from zero, though. During this work I had the chance to fully 'appreciate' ...

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog: December 2010
http://jiri-svoboda.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog. Tuesday, December 28, 2010. Mister triple W. meets miss H. I think the following image speaks for itself. After my recent bug fixes, HelenOS is able to serve a web page from inside Qemu. TCP is still shaky, sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. But it's still progress :-). In the past weeks and months I got my hands dirty in the networking stack and I tell you, the code is weird. Friday, December 3, 2010. A moment to remember. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog: May 2011

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog. Wednesday, May 18, 2011. How to ride your magic carpet. Magic carpets are, you know, pretty much commonplace stuff. Everybody rides one, including Prince of Persia and the Rescue Rangers. Now the thing which has always bugged me is the question: How do you control which direction the carpet should fly? Looks like another big mystery solved. And I didn't have to look far for the answer, too. It's all written in, I am not kidding you, the USB HID specifications. Turning the b...

Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog: The first sentence counts
http://jiri-svoboda.blogspot.com/2011/08/first-sentence-counts.html
Jiri's allegedly HelenOS blog. Wednesday, August 10, 2011. The first sentence counts. Of the novels and short stories I've read there were two cases where not only they were works of sheer literary genius, but also written with a humour that sold them to me with the very first sentence. In the first case the short story Jupiter Five, my favourite by sir A. C. Clarke, partly due to the excellent and slightly unusual Czech translation. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
