AlectOS Project Status and Task List
This page is to help organize the development effort on AlectOS. Any of the
tasks and ideas listed below can be worked on by anybody, however make sure
and post to the list
(sigops-l@acm.uiuc.edu) first.
It would suck for two people to do duplicate work (although a little healthy
competition can be fun).
Specific tasks that need to be done:
- sigops libc
- ring buffer
- ext2 implementation (or equivallent mainstream FS)
Other less well-defined potential tasks:
- libk, random kernel functions like memset that are needed
- USB framework
- concurrency controls (semaphores, etc)
- graphics driver (tty)
- IPC (pipes, signals, unix sockets, etc)
- malloc (although temporarily we can use Doug Lea's malloc)
- IDE HD driver
- floppy driver?
- cdrom driver?
- pc speaker driver
- soundcard driver
- network stack (including ethernet card driver)
