Dendrobates Tinctorius Azureus - The blue poison frog

This is a minimal kernel (written in rust) meant to help idissect (reverse engineer) Intel CPUs (hence the blue color of the chosen frog)

Everything remains to be done.

Design decision :

  • Will only ever have one user process

  • Should limit use of interrupts as much as possible

  • Should support as many instructions as possible, make sure to properly enable all floating points and vector extensions

  • Get a kernel to boot

  • Get serial console

  • Deal with cpuid / floating point niceties

  • Deal with the user mode switch
