He +wrote: + + Last time, there was no AArch64 port of GNU Mach, and so the only testing + I have done was running a simple statically-linked executable on Linux under + GDB, which, nevertheless, helped me identify and fix a number of issues. + + Since then, however, I have been (some may say, relentlessly) working on + filling in the missing piece, namely porting GNU Mach (with important help & + contributions by Luca D.). I am happy to report that we now have an + experimental port of GNU Mach that builds and works on AArch64! While that may + sound impressive, note that various things about it are in an extremely basic, + proof-of-concept state rather than being seriously production-ready; and also + that Mach is a small kernel (indeed, a microkernel), and it was designed from + the start (back in the 80s) to be portable, so most of the "buisness logic" + functionality (virtual memory, IPC, tasks/threads/scheduler) is explicitly + arch-independent. + + Despite the scary "WIP proof-of-concept" status, there is enough + functionality in Mach to run userland code, handle exceptions and + syscalls, interact with the MMU to implement all the expected virtual + memory semantics, schedule/switch tasks and threads, and so on. + Moreover, all of GNU Mach's userspace self-tests pass! + + This meant there was enough things in place for me to try running + glibc on it, and the amazing thing is my simple test executable, the + same one I previously tested on Linux with GDB, just worked on real + Mach without me having to make any additional changes to the glibc + side, or even recompile it. + + But I did not stop there, and I got several of the core Hurd servers + working! Namely, these are ext2fs, exec, startup, auth, and proc + servers. All of them but ext2fs are dynamically linked; ld + aarch64.so.1 sucessfully locates and maps the programs themselves + and their required dependencies, and Mach pages in code and data + pages from ext2fs as they are accessed, transparently to the + program, just as one would expect it to. + + +Be sure to read more from his announcement +[email](https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2024-03/msg00114.html). + +Sergey also announced [a new Alpine distro based on Hurd](https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2024-01/msg00180.html) (it +currently does not have a name). His goal is to add another Hurd distribution, +which will force the Hurd to work with different software and hopefully fix more +bugs. Alpine Linux also usually runs the latest software, so this new Hurd +distribution will be for those who like living on the bleeding edge. He writes: + + + I have ported many Alpine packages to build with (i386, for now) GNU + Mach, the Hurd, and glibc, replacing Linux and musl. If you want a + specific number: as of yesterday, I have 299 installable packages; the + number of source packages is of course several times less than that. + Still, this includes things like curl, ncurses, nano, native binutils + & gcc & mig, libffi, openrc, openssl, util-linux, busybox, apk-tools, + ... and of course gnumach, hurd (with dependencies like libdaemon, + parted, ...), and glibc. Importantly, all this cleanly bootstraps + using the scripts/bootstrap.sh script that they provide; this is too + somewhat like Flávio's scripts, but it uses the real full Alpine + package definitions for e.g. GCC (patched by me for glibc / Hurd + support). + + Above the kernel and libc, things remain much as they were in upstream + Alpine: the system boots (will boot — I haven't tried it yet) with + busybox init & OpenRC, and uses busybox as its basic userland. GNU + software such as Bash is installable, too. + + +This new Hurd distribution currently does not have a mailing list, irc room, or +website. If you are interesting +in helping Sergei to develop it further, then please email bug-hurd@gnu.org. + +Luca Dariz added [userspace +tests](https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2024-01/msg00125.html), which +work with qemu.

I tested pcnet32, e100, e1000, ne2k-pci and rtl8139 in VMWare and Qemu. But the DDE e100 driver cannot work for some e100 cards as currently DDE doesn't support firmware. Someone also reported sis900 cannot work, unfortunately, I cannot test it myself. I appreciate if someone can try some other NIC drivers and give me some feedbback. Please run DDE with GNUMach in the [master-user_level_drivers](https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hurd/gnumach.git/) branch. ## My work I separate DDE Linux26 to 2 parts: libddekit and libdde_linux26. I also provide a library called libmachdev on the top of the Linux code to provide the Mach device interface, so it is easy for the user to compile a Linux driver and run it in the Hurd. The latest code can be found in the dde branch of the incubator repository. |
