Hi everyone, This is my first week status: - Environment setup at leaf (git repository, build and test environments). - Study of dragonfly's and freebsd's codebase (regarding syscalls and loading). For the next week I will create a sketch of proposed changes and start coding. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hi, I have started coding, it will be committed soon to the 32bit_api branch on my repository on leaf. Details about what's being implemented are available here: http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/kernel/2012-06/msg00001.html It covers the syscall handling and the loader issue, I still need to see what will be done regarding the signal handling. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hi everyone, Due to my finals coming soon, I had many university projects to work on, so I couldn't finish anything revisable. I hope I can finish some patches early this week. > I have started coding, it will be committed soon to the 32bit_api branch > on my repository on leaf.

Hello, First patches were committed to my repository on leaf, I'm on my way to start translating syscalls. I should get more active after this week, as my semester ends. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hello everyone, My finals are finally over, so I'm working to catch up with development. I'm importing syscalls from FreeBSD, and fixing some issues with my previous commits. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hello, I'm still working on importing as much FreeBSD's syscalls as possible, not everything is committed since most of it still broken (mostly because of types that I need to convert to 32bit). -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hi everyone, Sorry for the late message, but I almost finished importing freebsd's syscalls, I hope to have something running soon. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hello, This week I reorganized m patches, and I'm still fixing issues with imported FreeBSD's syscalls. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hi, I still fixing issues with imported syscalls, I hope to finish this by the weekend. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059

What works? What doesn't? Which syscalls are still broken? Which ones have been ported? Do you have some spreadsheet or something like that with that information? What are your plans for the next 1 or 2 weeks? Cheers, Alex
Sorry for the late response, but I had some issues with my notebook. > could you please elaborate a bit more on your progress? What works? > What doesn't? Which syscalls are still broken?

I've translated (but not tested) kevent, pselect, select, sigaltstack, gettimeofday and getrusage, plus about a dozen helper functions. The helpers themselves took more work than the syscalls, also the overall structure needed a lot of work to be functional (at least partially). So far it isn't possible to run a complete application using this layer yet. > What are your plans for the next 1 or 2 weeks? My classes are starting again this week, so I may be only available at night. I don't think it will be possible to run a complete in the end (I'm aware that is not enough to pass in the final evaluation), so I'll focus on creating an program to test the already translated syscalls. I will stay and finish this even after GSoC ends, I just think that I bit off more than I could chew. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
Hi, I haven't done any work this week because my classes started and I'm still organizing myself. I hope to get back to work next week. -- -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
