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. -

ravynOS
A BSD-based OS project that aims to provide an experience with MacOS
We love macOS, but we’re not a fan of the ever-closing hardware and ecosystem. So we are creating ravynOS, an OS aimed to provide the finesse of macOS with the freedom of FreeBSD. This is a developer preview image that’s mainly intended for helping build the system. We recommend running in a virtual machine, although it should work on any hardware supported by FreeBSD-CURRENT (14.0) with at least 2GB (8GB recommended) RAM. PLEASE NOTE: On 2022-02-14, we decided to abandon the current path of using X11/KDE desktop components and write from scratch a new UI that will align better with our goals. This stepping back will slow the project but ultimately should result in a better outcome. We intend to bring many of the features you’ve come to love from macOS to ravynOS like clean design, global menus, and drag-and-drop installs. All of your FreeBSD ports and apps, Linux apps, and even trivial Darwin & macOS binaries can now run on ravynOS. And we’re actively working on improving it! -

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. -

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. -

Xone
Linux kernel driver for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S accessories
xone is a Linux kernel driver for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S accessories. It serves as a modern replacement for Xpad, aiming to be compatible with Microsoft's Game Input Protocol (GIP). Installing Xone will disable the Xpad kernel driver. If you are still using Xbox or Xbox 360 peripherals, you will have to install xpad-noone as a replacement for Xpad. -

KMON
Linux Kernel Manager and Activity Monitor
The kernel is the part of the operating system that facilitates interactions between hardware and software components. On most systems, it is loaded on startup after the bootloader and handles I/O requests as well as peripherals like keyboards, monitors, network adapters, and speakers. The Linux kernel is the open-source, monolithic, and, Unix-like operating system kernel that is used in the Linux distributions, various embedded systems such as routers, and as well as in all Android-based systems. Linus Torvalds conceived and created the Linux kernel in 1991 and it's still being developed by thousands of developers today. It's a prominent example of free and open-source software and it's used in other free software projects, notably the GNU operating system. Although the Linux-based operating systems dominate most of computing, it still carries some design flaws which were quite a bit of debate in the early days of Linux. -

Visopsys
Alternative operating system for x86 computers
Visopsys is an alternative operating system for PC compatible computers. In development since 1997, this system is small, fast, and open source. It features a simple but functional graphical interface, pre-emptive multitasking, and virtual memory. Though it attempts to be compatible in a number of ways, Visopsys is not a clone of any other operating system. You can demo the distribution from a “live” CD/DVD or floppy disk -

syzkaller
syzkaller is an unsupervised coverage-guided kernel fuzzer
syzkaller is Google’s coverage-guided, feedback-driven kernel fuzzer designed to uncover reliability and security bugs in operating system kernels at scale. It automatically generates, mutates, and minimizes system call programs, then drives them through a specialized executor (syz-executor) to exercise deep kernel paths. The system integrates tightly with sanitizers such as KASAN, KMSAN, KCSAN, and UBSAN to surface memory safety, concurrency, and undefined behavior issues with actionable reports. A distributed architecture coordinates many fuzzing VMs, collects crash signatures, deduplicates them, and bisects to the first bad commit when possible. syzkaller maintains per-kernel “syz” descriptions so it understands arguments, flags, and resources of thousands of syscalls and ioctls across Linux and other kernels. It also ships sophisticated reproducers and minimization routines so developers get small, deterministic test cases they can run locally to fix bugs quickly.
