Great to see this DHCP implementation making progress! CCing Christiano (the author).
It looks like this is actually almost ready to replace the (extremely terrible) parser that I wrote years ago in the current TCP/IP stack, but there's certainly no immediate rush to do so. One thing that's worth doing is to ensure that the new DHCP library can run outside of the TCP/IP implementation, so we may need to extend the module types to have better listening support. I really like that it's got a parser for the ISC dhcpd.conf! Some of the Unix privsep code could also eventually be factored out into a library for the other daemons as well. -anil > On 12 May 2015, at 17:48, Mindy <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Alistair, > > Sorry for the lateness of this reply, but I've just heard about an OCaml DHCP > implementation that you may want to have a look > at:https://github.com/haesbaert/hdhcp <https://github.com/haesbaert/hdhcp> . > It looks like it's currently under active development, although not yet > buildable for Mirage. > > -Mindy > > On 04/26/2015 09:10 PM, Alistair Fisher wrote: >> Hello, >> >> I'm a second year computer scientist at the University of Cambridge >> interested in working on MirageOS over the summer via the UROP scheme. >> >> I am interested in the projects that focus on distributed systems, >> particularly Semantics of Shared Data Structures and all 5 networking >> projects (especially the HTTP implementation and DHCP server ones, since >> those are the protocols I am most familiar with). >> >> To continue with my application, should I contact each mentor individually >> with my application for their particular project? >> >> Thanks you for your time, >> >> Alistair Fisher >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> MirageOS-devel mailing list >> [email protected] >> <mailto:[email protected]> >> http://lists.xenproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mirageos-devel >> <http://lists.xenproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mirageos-devel> > > _______________________________________________ > MirageOS-devel mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xenproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mirageos-devel
