By separating the VFS from Noux, we become able to reuse the VFS for libc-using programs. The most substantial change is the removal of Noux::Sysio data structures from the VFS. Instead, the Noux::Sysio refers to the VFS types now. The new VFS library is located at 'os/include/vfs/'. Furthermore, the patch removes various code duplications related to pseudo file systems that provide a single file (block, zero, random, terminal, null). The new 'Single_file_system' holds the common boilerplate code for those. Issue #999
This is the example operating system based on the Genode OS framework: :_Init_: is the first real process in the system. The provided implementation uses a very simple XML parser to read its configuration files. :_Drivers_: The example OS has basic drivers for frame buffer, mouse and keyboard input, the PCI bus, the real-time clock, and system-specific timers. :_Server_: The only server in the example OS is Nitpicker, a minimal-complexity GUI server. :_Test_: are also part of the example OS. You may have a look at the fork bomb as a simple system stress test. :_Ldso_: is the dynamic linker used for loading executables that are linked against shared libraries. :_Lib_: contains libraries used by the components of the OS repository, in particular the device-driver kit, the alarm framework, and support for dynamic linking.
