DANA

Dana is Almost Not Apple — a Mach microkernel targeting Darwin/XNU ABI compatibility.

Architecture

DANA follows the Mach microkernel philosophy: the kernel provides tasks, threads, IPC (ports and messages), and virtual memory. Higher-level services run in userspace.

Building

make get-deps   # download include/limine.h
make            # build build/dana.elf
make iso        # build build/dana.iso
make run        # run in QEMU with serial output on stdout

Requirements: gcc, nasm, ld (binutils), xorriso, qemu-system-x86_64, limine
