Rather than starting all services in the config dir, we only start those which are a dependency of the target we want to reach. This is necessary to handle unit templating, service start stop and an alternative target for recovery or graceful shutdown.
Base
Repository containing various system daemons, that are considered fundamental for the OS.
You can see what each component does in the following list:
- audiod : Daemon used to process the sound drivers audio
- bootstrap : First code that the kernel executes, responsible for spawning the init daemon
- daemon : Redox daemon library
- drivers
- init : Daemon used to start most system components and programs
- initfs : Filesystem with the necessary system components to run RedoxFS
- ipcd : Daemon used for inter-process communication
- logd : Daemon used to log system components and daemons
- netstack : Daemon used for networking
- ptyd : Daemon used for pseudo-terminal
- ramfs : RAM filesystem
- randd : Daemon used for random number generation
- zerod : Daemon used to discard all writes and fill read buffers with zero
How To Contribute
To learn how to contribute you need to read the following document:
If you want to contribute to drivers read its README
Development
To learn how to do development with these system components inside the Redox build system you need to read the Build System and Coding and Building pages.
How To Build
To build this system component you need to download the Redox build system, you can learn how to do it on the Building Redox page.
This is necessary because they only work with cross-compilation to a Redox virtual machine or real hardware, but you can do some testing from Linux.
