Linux Surface
Linux Kernel for Surface Devices
Linux running on Microsoft Surface devices. These days, Linux supports a lot of devices out-of-the-box. As a matter of fact, this includes a good portion of the Microsoft Surface devices—for most parts at least. Unfortunately, Surface devices tend to be a bit special. This is mostly because some hardware choices Microsoft made are rarely (if at all) used by other, more "standard", devices. We aim to send all the changes we make here upstream, but this may take time. This kernel allows us to ship new features faster, as we do not have to adhere to the upstream release schedule (and, for better or worse, code standards). We also rely on it to test and prototype patches before sending them upstream, which is crucial because we maintainers cannot test on all Surface devices (which also means we may break things along the way). -

Redox
Redox is an operating system written in Rust
Redox is a Unix-like Operating System written in Rust, aiming to bring the innovations of Rust to a modern microkernel and full set of applications. Redox is a general purpose operating system written in pure Rust. Our aim is to provide a fully functioning Unix-like microkernel, that is both secure and free. We have modest compatibility with POSIX, allowing Redox to run many programs without porting. We take inspiration from Plan9, Minix, Linux, and BSD. Redox aims to synthesize years of research and hard won experience into a system that feels modern and familiar. Redox is an attempt to make a complete, fully-functioning, general-purpose operating system with a focus on safety, freedom, reliability, correctness, and pragmatism. We want to be able to use it, without obstructions, as an alternative to Linux on our computers. It should be able to run most Linux programs with only minimal modifications. We're aiming towards a complete, safe Rust ecosystem. -

Linux Kernel
Linux Kernel source tree
The Linux Kernel is the core component of the Linux operating system—a free, open-source, monolithic, Unix-like system kernel initiated by Linus Torvalds in 1991 and since evolved into a foundational technology powering everything from servers and supercomputers to smartphones and embedded devices. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Extensive filesystem compatibility (ext4, Btrfs, FUSE, XFS, etc.) Broad hardware architecture support (x86, ARM, mainframe, embedded, etc.) -

ToaruOS
Hobby operating system, bootloader, kernel, drivers, C library
ToaruOS is a "complete" operating system for x86-64 PCs and experimental support for ARMv8. While many independent, hobby, and research OSes aim to experiment with new designs, ToaruOS is intended as an educational resource, providing a representative microcosm of functionality found in major desktop operating systems. The OS includes a kernel, bootloader, dynamic shared object linker, C standard library, its own composited windowing system, a dynamic bytecode-compiled programming language, advanced code editor, and dozens of other utilities and example applications. There are no external runtime dependencies and all required source code, totaling roughly 100k lines of (primarily) C, is included in this repository, save for Kuroko, which lives separately. Through out the project, ToaruOS has also attracted quite a few beginner OS developers who have tried to use it as a reference. -

netboot.xyz
Your favorite operating systems in one place
netboot.xyz enables you to boot into many types of operating systems using lightweight tooling to get you up and running as soon as possible. Discover new operating systems without having to download and rewrite media over and over again. Rescue operating systems from a single image. An essential for any sysadmin. netboot.XYZ uses the iPXE project to enable you to provision, rescue, or load into a live boot environment leveraging the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) on most systems. netboot.xyz is a convenient place to boot into any type of operating system or utility disk without the need of having to go spend time retrieving the ISO just to run it. iPXE is used to provide a user-friendly menu from within the BIOS that lets you easily choose the operating system you want along with any specific types of versions or bootable flags. -

stress-ng
This is the stress-ng upstream project git repository.
This is the stress-ng upstream project git repository. stress-ng will stress test a computer system in various selectable ways. It was designed to exercise various physical subsystems of a computer as well as the various operating system kernel interfaces. stress-ng was originally intended to make a machine work hard and trip hardware issues such as thermal overruns as well as operating system bugs that only occur when a system is being thrashed hard. Use stress-ng with caution as some of the tests can make a system run hot on poorly designed hardware and also can cause excessive system thrashing which may be difficult to stop. -

QP Real-Time Event Frameworks & Tools
Real-Time Event Frameworks based on active objects & state machines
QP real-time event frameworks (RTEFs) provide lightweight, modern, event-driven architecture based on asynchronous Active Objects (Actors) and Hierarchical State Machines. The matching QM model-based design tool and other host-based tools complement the QP frameworks by supporting graphical modeling, code generation, software tracing, and unit testing for event-driven embedded software. Visit https://www.state-machine.com for more information. The QP RTEFs can run on bare-metal microcontrollers, replacing a traditional RTOS. The frameworks contain a selection of built-in real-time kernels (RTOS kernels), such as the cooperative QV kernel, the preemptive non-blocking QK kernel, and the unique preemptive, dual-mode (blocking/non-blocking) QXK kernel. Native QP ports and ready-to-use examples are provided for ARM Cortex-M (M0/M0+/M3/M4/M7/M33/...) as well as other CPUs. The QP RTEFs can also work with many traditional RTOSes and General-Purpose OSes, such as Linux and Windows. -

ArchMint
ArchMint GNU/Linux Distro
2007 yılında Edgar Colby ve Necho Carlota tarafından Portekiz ve Brezilyalı kullanıcıları Arch Linux tabanlı kolay kurulabilen bir GNU/Linux dağıtımı ile buluşturmak adına ArchMint projesi başlamış ve 2013 yılına kadar Gnome 2 masaüstüne sahip 4 ayrı ana sürüm yayınlanmıştır. 2013 yılında Mate masaüstü ortamına geçiş ile birlikte projeye Hasan Arslan ve Tekin Özer dahil olmuştur. 2014 yılında projenin başlatıcıları olan Edgar Colby ve Necho Carlota'nın projeden ayrılması ile birlikte proje ismine ithafen Arch Linux'un sağlamlığı ve Linux Mint'in açık kaynak kodlu araçları birleştirilerek 2 yeni sürüm hazırlanmıştır. ArchMint projesi, 2016 yılında tüm geliştiricilerin ayrılması ile birlikte askıya alınmıştır. 2017 - 2020 yılları arasında eski geliştiriciler birkaç sürüm yayınlamış fakat devamı gelmemiştir. ArchMint paket deposu hala günceldir ve Arch Linux içinde kullanılabilir. [archmint] SigLevel = Never Server = https://sourceforge.net/projects/archmint/files/repo/$arch -

Zen Kernel
Zen Patched Kernel Sources
Zen Patched Kernel Sources. This is the top level of the kernel’s documentation tree. Kernel documentation, like the kernel itself, is very much a work in progress; that is especially true as we work to integrate our many scattered documents into a coherent whole. ARC processors are highly configurable and several configurable options are supported in Linux. Some options are transparent to software (i.e cache geometries, some can be detected at runtime and configured and used accordingly, while some need to be explicitly selected or configured in the kernel’s configuration utility. -
