Configurable Kernel |
For embedded real time system, there is a need for a "small footprint" kernel. The idea is to allow one to build a kernel that suits his/her needs, and to configure out all the unnecessary features. The objective of this project is to reduce the size of the kernel below 1MB (code + data) on Intel 486 and Intel 860 platforms. The technique that is used is to define, build and validate a "minimal" MK `C'-based kernel, and then to develop configurability options for layered, O-O MK++ kernel.
Results are available for the two following platforms:
