## Writing software for PepperOS
|
||||
|
||||
The basics that I'm targeting are:
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic utility of what we call a "kernel"
|
||||
|
||||
- Implement tasks, and task switching + context switching and spinlock acquire/release
|
||||
- Load an executable
|
||||
- Filesystem (TAR for read-only initfs, then maybe read-write using FAT12/16/32 or easier fs) w/ VFS layer
|
||||
- Getting to userspace (ring 3 switching, syscall interface)
|
||||
- Porting musl libc or equivalent
|
||||
|
||||
### Scalability/maintenance/expansion features
|
||||
|
||||
- Documentation
|
||||
- SOME error handling in functions
|
||||
- Unit tests
|
||||
- Good error codes (like Linux kernel: ENOMEM, ENOENT, ...)
|
||||
|
||||
### Optional features
|
||||
|
||||
In the future, maybe?
|
||||
- SMP support (Limine provides functionality to make this easier)
|
||||
- Parsing the ACPI tables and using them for something
|
||||
- Replacing the PIT timer with APIC
|
||||
If you want to write software for PepperOS, take a look at the [Software Developer's guide](docs/SOFTWARE.md).
