  • https://ghostkernel.org/about

    >"Ghost is a hobby operating system for the Intel x86 platform. The project is licensed as GPLv3. It was started as a research project to learn more about low-level software programming and computer internals. The sources are available on GitHub (https://github.com/maxdev1/ghost).

    Features

    The kernel and the userspace applications are written from scratch in C++ and Assembly (and some C). It is not based on any existing kernel.

    There is a POSIX.1 compatibility layer to simplify porting some software to the system.

    o Micro-kernel

    o Symmetric multi-processing

    o Patched GCC (OS specific toolchain)

    o IPC (pipes, signals, messages, shared memory)

    o ELF executable & shared library support

    o libc, self-made

    o libghostapi, kernel API library

    o libghostuser, simplified file I/O, creating UIs etc.

    o libstdc++ port

    o VESA video driver

    o Window server (GUI with homemade toolkit)

    o PS/2 keyboard & mouse driver

    o Userspace filesystem driver support

    o Serial COM1 debug interface

    o Virtual 8086 for BIOS calls

    o Copy-on-write implementation, fork()
