Turns out we can use abi::__cxa_demangle() for this, and all we need to provide is sprintf(), realloc() and free(), so this patch exposes them. We now have fully demangled C++ backtraces :^) |

Serenity
Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.
About
I always wondered what it would be like to write my own operating system, but I never took it seriously. Until now.
Serenity is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.
Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by me, for me, based on the things I like.
If you like some of the same things, you are welcome to join the project. It would be great to one day change the above to say "this is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like." :^)
I regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.
Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.
There's also a Patreon if you would like to show some support that way.

How do I build and run this?
Make sure you have all the dependencies installed:
sudo apt install build-essential curl libmpfr-dev libmpc-dev libgmp-dev e2fsprogs qemu-system-i386 qemu-utils
Ensure your gcc version is >= 8 with gcc --version
. Otherwise, install it (on Ubuntu) with:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get install gcc-8 g++-8
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-8 800 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-8
Go into the Toolchain/
directory and run the BuildIt.sh script. Then source the UseIt.sh script to put the i686-pc-serenity
toolchain in your $PATH
.
Once you've done both of those, go into the Kernel/
directory, then run
./makeall.sh, and if nothing breaks too much, take it for a spin by using
./run.
You can vastly reduce the build time of successive rebuilds of Serenity by installing ccache
and export
ing PRE_CXX=ccache
Bare curious users may even consider sourcing suitable hardware to install Serenity on a physical PC.
Later on, when you git pull
to get the latest changes, there's no need to rebuild the toolchain. You can simply rerun ./makeall.sh in the Kernel/
directory and you'll be good to ./run again.
