Isn't that driving against the lesson learned from the past though? 3rd party drivers can not be trusted to behave and hang the kernel when doing so with cooperative multitasking.
- steveklabnik 7y agoI am not sure what Phil's overall kernel design is; you're assuming a monolithic kernel, but not every kernel has drivers in kernel space.
- jklehm 7y agoFair point, looking forward to following along :)
- eximius 7y agoToy OS, so he has less to worry about. But also maybe just be more careful around kernel modules, if that eventually exists?
- mtnygard 7y agoPhil's series is meant for learning rather than production use. So sometimes he takes a "shortcut" in one post then removes the restrictions or workarounds later.
