There is a new implementation of process groups (leaving process sessions and jobs for 0.7.4, hopefully), new system calls, more information in procfs and some rewritten assembly core parts. [...] Sat, 20 Apr 2013 19:00 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N072 This version brings new improvements towards a more stable kernel. It also includes some important bugfixes and new system call support. Focus continues on the work in the terminal driver and to support more system calls. [...] Mon, 04 Feb 2013 23:30 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N071 A lot of improvements come with this new version. There are improvements in the signaling system, in the terminal driver and in the pipefs driver. There has been a big code restructuring and as always, a good number of bugs were fixed. [...] Sat, 03 Nov 2012 16:00 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N070 Finally I have finished all the context switch transition from hardware to software context switch, including a complete rewrite of the system call entry and other critical sections. [...] Sat, 09 Dec 2011 12:00 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N064 While waiting for the whole rewrite of the context switch procedure and process scheduling, this is yet another maintenance version with some bugs fixed and some improvements. [...] Sat, 24 Sep 2011 11:00 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N063 Before introduce some major modifications in the process scheduling and in the sleep and wakeup procedures, I've decided to fix a number of well known bugs and reorganize a lot of code that will make a good starting point. [...] Wed, 16 Apr 2010 19:30 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N062 While waiting for the next 0.6.3 from which I plan to make a whole rewrite of the context switch procedure and process scheduling, I present this new release which includes two new supported system calls sys_times and sys_ustat. [...] Wed, 24 Apr 2009 19:30 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N061 This version includes some basic enhancements that are necessary to improve other kernel parts in the near future. One of those enhancements is the new minimal support for the parallel port line printer driver (/dev/lp0), that will help to debug kernel messages during the adaptation of the X Window System support. [...] Wed, 24 Apr 2009 19:30 +0100 http://www.fiwix.org/news.html#N060 A lot of work has been done since the last release and that's why this is another major version. The most important one is the completely changed kernel address space. Taking advantage of the Tim Robinson's GDT idea, I've rewritten almost all the memory code to accomodate the same memory layout as in Linux. The result is [...] Wed, 11 Mar 2009 08:30 +0100
