The L4Ka team is pleased to announce the availability of
L4Ka::Pistachio version 0.3. The current release fixes a number of
bugs from the previous release and makes the following major changes:
o The IA32 port now supports small address spaces.
o The `high' field in memory descriptors now specify the last byte
of the memory region (API change).
o The way that the IA32 port invokes the system call stubs in the
user-level bindings has changed. The change requires that all
applications that are compiled with the new bindings must also
be linked with the new libl4 library.
L4Ka::Pistachio implements the L4 Version 4 API and currently supports
the following hardware architectures:
o Intel IA32 (Pentium and higher)
o Intel IA64 (Itanium1, Itanium2)
o PowerPC 32bit (IBM 750)
o Alpha (21164)
o MIPS 64bit (R4000, R5000)
For more information on L4Ka::Pistachio and the L4 Version 4 API in
general, refer to the L4Ka::Pistachio whitepaper:

L4Ka::Pistachio is available under the two-clause BSD license. Source
and binary distributions, documentation, and other online resources
can be found on the L4Ka website:

The latest version of L4Ka::Pistachio, including any changes since the
latest release, is also available through a public read-only CVS
repository. See our website for instructions on how to access the
public CVS.
Happy hacking,
The L4Ka Development Team
