Soaplin

The Soaplin kernel is a new Unix-like operating system kernel.

Features

  • x86_64 support (kinda)
  • Memory management (VMM/PMM)
  • Simple pre-emptive scheduler
  • Ring 3 (user mode) support
  • ELF loader

In the works

  • Virtual File System
  • FPU support

To come

  • RTC support
  • EXT2 driver
  • FAT32 driver
  • CPIO-based init ram disk
  • Video driver for Bochs graphics adapter, and the VMware display adapter.

Known bugs

  • If a user process calls the syscall handler by using interrupts, the system may crash due to a Page Fault.

Building

To build Soaplin, you must ensure you have these:

  • The Netwide Assembler (nasm)
  • A compiler (In the future, a custom toolchain would be built.)
  • A linker

Clone the repo, and run "make" in it!
