Running the Test System

Each top-level LK* directory includes each own kernel and two versions of the root filesystem in the qemu subfolder.

In order to test each exercise, it is necessary to extract each rootfs first. As an example, extracting the root filesystems for the LK01-1 set of exercises, can be done as follows:

$ ./tools/extract_rootfs.sh LK01-1/qemu/

Now a test environment can be launched including any of programs in LK01-1. As an example, start the environment for LK01-1/src/01.test, doing:

$ ./tools/transfer.sh LK01-1/src/01-test

If willing to run with root access, modify the ROOT variable in transfer.sh before executing it.

VM security configuration

Configuration of the security parameters of the VM, is set with the flags SMEP, SMAP, KASLR, and KPTI in run.sh.

The number of cores of the VM is adjusted in the same file using the SMP variable.
