1. Introduction 🌟

Welcome to the documentation for Hasya Katta Official Nucleus (HKO-Nucleus), version HKO-N-0.0.2-21.10.2023.11.54. HKO-Nucleus is an operating system nucleus designed for educational purposes, providing a foundation for understanding the inner workings of operating systems. This documentation will guide you through the setup, usage, and development of HKO-Nucleus. 🎓

2. Nucleus Overview 💡

HKO-Nucleus is a simple, minimalistic nucleus that demonstrates core concepts of operating system development, such as process management, system calls, and basic I/O. It is not intended for production use but serves as a learning tool for nucleus development. 🧠

3. System Requirements 🛠️

HKO-Nucleus can be developed and run on x86-based architectures. To build and run the nucleus, you’ll need:

• An x86, x86_64, ARM, or RISC-V based computer or emulator (e.g., QEMU)
• A compatible development environment
• GCC (GNU Compiler Collection)
• Make utility

4. Supported Architectures 💻

HKO-Nucleus supports the following architectures:

• x86 (32-bit)
• x86_64 (64-bit)
• ARM (32-bit)
• RISC-V (32-bit)

5. Installation ⚙️

HKO-Nucleus is a project you compile and run on your local system for educational purposes. There is no installation required.

6. File Structure 📂

The project follows a directory structure to organize the nucleus source code and related files:

• Hasya Katta Official Nucleus
  • Arcx (Architecture-specific code, e.g., x86, x86_64, ARM, RISC-V)
    • Arm (ARM architecture-specific code)
    • x86 (x86 architecture-specific code)
    • x86_64 (x86_64 architecture-specific code)
    • Riscv (RISC-V architecture-specific code)
    • RPi (Raspberry Pi-specific code)
  • Boot (Bootloader code, e.g., GRUB, UEFI)
  • Drvrs (Hardware device drivers)

12. Troubleshooting 🛠️

While working with Hasya Katta Official Nucleus, you may encounter various issues or challenges. This section provides guidance on common troubleshooting steps and tips for resolving potential problems.

Common Issues and Solutions

1. Build Errors
   • Issue: If you encounter build errors while compiling the nucleus, it might be due to missing dependencies or incorrect configurations.
   • Solution: Double-check that you have all the required development tools and libraries installed. Ensure that your environment is correctly configured for your target architecture.
2. Emulation Problems
   • Issue: When running the nucleus in an emulator like QEMU, you may face issues with the emulator’s settings or compatibility.
   • Solution: Refer to the emulator’s documentation and make sure you have set up the emulator with the correct parameters for your target architecture.
3. Missing Functionality
   • Issue: If you find that certain components or features are missing or not functioning as expected, it may be due to incomplete or incorrect code.
   • Solution: Review the relevant code and documentation to understand the expected behavior of the missing functionality. Debug and test the code to identify and resolve the issue.
4. Performance Problems
   • Issue: Performance-related issues, such as slow execution or high resource usage, may arise during testing and development.
   • Solution: Optimize the code, particularly in critical sections like the scheduler and memory management. Analyze resource utilization and consider architectural improvements.
5. Nucleus Panics
   • Issue: Nucleus panics or system crashes can occur due to severe errors in the nucleus code.
   • Solution: Debug the code thoroughly, utilize debugging tools, and conduct systematic testing to identify and fix the issues that lead to nucleus panics.
