Hi all, I like Norman's vision of having a Genode-based mobile phone by the end of 2021 and am stoked to contribute to this mission. I almost ordered a pinephone some weeks ago but talked myself out of it because I was not ready to put in a lot of work. Yet, the perspective of running Genode on this phone completely changes the picture ;-) Besides the technological obstacles such as porting device drivers, there is also the question of usability. I think a basic support/integration of web apps would make the mobile Genode already quite usable.
I also like that Norman mentioned optimisation. I have a few ideas in the back of my head regarding performance optimisation and debugging. I would very much like to get some system-level tracing infrastructure running. As I've been working with Lttng this year (outside the Genode sphere), I thought having a similar functionality on Genode could dramatically simplify identifying bottlenecks and race conditions. The nice thing is that the developers behind Lttng established the Common Trace Format to store trace data. Thus, once we get a CTF trace out of Genode, we could use all the existing analysis and visualisation tools.
