multi_vfs_dns_client example

This example shows how to use an external DNS server in KasperskyOS.

The example also demonstrates the use of various virtual file systems (VFS) in a single solution. The example uses different VFS to access the functions for working with the file system and functions for working with the network:

• The VfsNet program is used for working with the network.
• The VfsRamfs and VfsSdCardFs programs are used for working with the file system.

The Client program uses standard libc library functions for contacting an external DNS service. These functions are converted into queries to the VfsNet program via IPC.

The CMake system, which is included with KasperskyOS Community Edition, is used to build and run the example.

Supplied resources

The following configuration files are included in the example:

• ./resources/include/config.h.in contains a description of the backend file system that will be used in the solution: sdcard or ramfs.

  A separate VFS program (VfsSdCardFs or VfsRamfs, respectively) is used for each backend in the solution.

• The ./resources/ramfs/etc and /resources/sdcard/etc directories contain configuration files for the VFS program.
