v0.3-a0 2 years ago .tar.gz browse log 

Pre-release: v0.3-a0

New features since v0.2:

* Add xHCI driver
  * Add USB keyboard driver
  * Add USB mass storage driver
* Move PS/2 logic fully outside kernel.
* Switch from TOML to custom (& much simpler) configuration format
* Add memory driver to kernel, which exposes all addressable physical memory.
* Add "smart" PCIe driver loader.
* Add prototype user database
* Add GPT partition driver

Bug fixes:

* Mask MXCSR_INVALID_OPERATION_MASK et al. at program start.
* Map framebuffer as WC using PAT. This improves display refresh
  performance significantly.
* Fix thread::sleep returning immediately if some wakeup event preceded
  it.
* Make PCIe driver work on devices with less than 256 buses.
* Support PCIe MSI

Release v0.2

All the new features, briefly:

* Finalized OO interface. All basic methods are present.
* Add syscall for synchronous I/O
* StreamTable API and performance has been improved. It uses shared memory to
  avoid redundant copies to kernel-space and back.
* Basic GUI support, including a tiling window manager prototype.
  * Supported hardware are virtio-gpu and Intel HD Graphics (HD 5500).
* SSE and AVX2 support.
  * SSE4.2 has been chosen as baseline as all extension up to it include
    veru useful instructions (e.g. `pshufb`). Every x64 CPU made in the
	last ~15 years should support it.
* An SSH server has been implemented for secure remote logins.
* virtio-net performance and reliability has been improved (it is still flaky
  though)
