Build scripts and tools

KasperskyOS Community Edition includes the following build scripts and tools:

• nk-gen-c

  The NK compiler (nk-gen-c) generates the set of transport methods and types based on the EDL, CDL and IDL descriptions of applications, components and interfaces. The transport methods and types are needed for generating, sending, receiving and processing IPC messages.

• nk-psl-gen-c

  The nk-psl-gen-c compiler generates the source code of the Kaspersky Security Module based on the solution security policy description (security.psl) and the EDL, CDL and IDL descriptions included in the solution.

• einit

  The einit tool lets you automate the creation of code for the Einit initializing program. This program is the first to start when KasperskyOS is loaded. Then it starts all other programs and creates IPC channels between them.

• makekss

  The makekss script creates the Kaspersky Security Module.

• makeimg

  The makeimg script creates the final boot image of the KasperskyOS-based solution with all programs to be started and the Kaspersky Security Module.
