The Popcorn Linux project is exploring how to design operating system for future multi- and many-core hardware platforms, that can be Instruction Set Architecture (ISA)-diverse, based on the Linux kernel.

Features

  • replicated-kernel OS
  • based on Linux kernel (3.2.14)
  • for high core-count SMP and clusters (heterogenous support to come)
  • supports inter-kernel process and thread migration
  • (on shared memory and non-shared memory platforms)
  • pluggable messaging layer for different transports mechanisms
  • (SMP is supported through software partitioning of hardware)
