<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Jinghao,<br>
<br>
Both options work. Barrelfish has a filesystem that should be
sufficient for your needs. You can do any of:<br>
<br>
1. Include the file in the RAM disk (gzipped or not), by adding it
as a module to the menu.lst.scc file. If you want to gzip it, you
have to put it in a cpio archive and postfix it _ramfs.cpio.gz.
Look at the skb_ramfs.cpio.gz file for reference. Barrelfish has a
native file system interface in include/vfs/vfs.h and both C and
POSIX compatible ones in the standard headers. You might need to
call vfs_init() in your program and link to libvfs.a, but the rest
should "just work".<br>
<br>
2. Use NFS. You need to have your SCC connected to the network and
make sure that the network driver works.<br>
<br>
3. Tweak the linker parameters to include your data as an array
directly in your executable. I don't know why your program just
halts when you set it to a very high address, but it's likely
you've put it on top of other sensitive data structures.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>

Hi,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm porting a benchmark program to Barrelfish (SCC). This
program needs to read input from a file. But I didn't find any
file I/O interface from the Barrelfish doc or from the source
code. Any ideas on this?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Currently, I first format the input file and then include it
within a static array declaration. The expanded array size will
be about 20M. The following compile error occurs:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
/usr/bin/ld: section .<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://data.rel.ro">data.rel.ro</a> loaded at
[0000000000600000,0000000000600723] overlaps section .rodata
loaded at [00000000003a39c0,00000000016c7f77]</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And from the command line, I found these options:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>-Wl,-section-start,.text=0x300000 -Wl,-section-start,.<a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://data.rel.ro">data.rel.ro</a>=0x600000</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does it mean that the text section must fit in [0x300000,
0x600000]? I tried to move the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://data.rel.ro">data.rel.ro</a> section to some
other address like 0x6000000, but the program just halts. If
Barrelfish (scc) doesn't not support file system at the moment,
is it possible that I tweak these parameters and get
the giant array fits ?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
