Moss Kernel is an open-source operating system kernel project designed to explore modern OS design and provide a foundation for experimental system research and development. Rather than replicating traditional monolithic kernels exactly, it emphasizes modularity, safety, and simplicity by incorporating well-structured subsystems for memory management, scheduling, and device abstraction that are easy for contributors to understand and extend. The kernel uses Rust as its primary implementation language, which gives it strong memory safety guarantees and helps reduce common classes of bugs like data races and buffer overflows without sacrificing performance. It aims to serve as both a learning tool for systems programming students and a testbed for advanced research in kernel architecture, enabling experimentation with new ideas in process isolation, resource management, and driver models.

FiwixOS 3 is a Fiwix distribution, an operating system made from a software collection that is based upon the Fiwix kernel. It basically comprises a Fiwix kernel, GNU tools, libraries and additional software. All the included software is free and open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, which allows modifications to the original software. FiwixOS 3 uses the Newlib v3.1.0 as its C standard library, and the Ext2 as its primary file...

The Memory Hotadd project aims to enhance the Linux memory management subsystem to allow integrating physical memory added to a running system. It is intended to be used on Non-NUMA Intel IA-32 based systems with memory hot-plug capability.

This project aims at documenting the linux memory management to the smallest detail possible.
