Why use L4? Why create an L4 microkernel if one already exists?
The L4 specification specifies all the parts of the kernel and how they must interact. This will give us focus and a goal during implementation. In addition, the L4 specification is small. I think it is resonable size project to tackle. And yes, I know that other (finished) L4 microkernels are out there. However, I want to learn about how to build an operating system. So I want to start from scratch. Plus, the fact that other operating systems exist doesn’t seem to keep people from writing new ones.
