## I. Overview
|
|
|
|
## a. Supported Hardware
|
|
|
|
The recommended hardware to run PepperOS is the following:
|
|
|
|
- UEFI/BIOS
|
|
- Any x86 processor, 64-bits only
|
|
- PS/2 Keyboard
|
|
- Minimum 128MB of memory
|
|
|
|
## b. Features
|
|
|
|
- Round robin preemptive scheduling
|
|
- Coexistence of ring 0 and ring 3 processes
|
|
|
|
## II. Kernel architecture
|
|
|
|
### a. Boot process
|
|
|
|
### b. Memory management
|
|
|
|
### c. Scheduling
|
|
|
|
### d. Input/Output
|
|
|
|
## III. Syscall table
|
|
|
|
The syscall interface in the Pepper kernel uses the System V ABI convention for argument order.
|
|
It vaguely mimics Unix-like systems. You will find it in [SYSCALLS.md](SYSCALLS.md). |
