Ghost Kernel
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()
