## Introduction
The multithreaded kernel project aims to develop a basic but functional kernel that supports multithreading. This kernel is intended for educational purposes and to provide a foundation for further development. The project showcases key concepts in operating system development, such as thread management, memory management, and interrupt handling.
## Features
- **Multithreading support:** Allows the kernel to handle multiple threads concurrently.
- **Basic system calls:** Provides fundamental system calls for thread management and I/O operations.
- **Memory management:** Implements basic memory allocation and deallocation mechanisms.
- **Interrupt handling:** Manages hardware and software interrupts to ensure proper kernel functioning.
## Installation
To build and run the multithreaded kernel, follow these steps:
1. **Clone the repository:**
```sh
git clone https://github.com/adityasinghz/multithreaded-kernel.git
cd multithreaded-kernel
```
2. **Build the kernel:**
```sh
make
```
3. **Run the kernel:**
Use an emulator like QEMU to run the kernel:
```sh
make run
```
## Usage
To use the kernel, you can follow these basic instructions:
- **Boot the kernel:** After building, the kernel can be booted using an emulator.
- **Execute commands:** The kernel provides a simple command interface for testing system calls and thread operations.
- **Develop and test:** You can modify the kernel code and test new features by rebuilding and running it.
