Topics Of Discussion

Potential topics of discussion include:
  • AOT
    • Recent major improvements
    • Marking EIC runtime components to hint the AOT
    • Embedding type information in kernel image, that describes the kernel to itself
  • Kernel
    • Runtime support functions – reading (and writing?) type information, such as from the kernel binary – including v-tables, method descriptors, etc.
    • Runtime support stubs – we’ve got quite a bit to satisfy before we can get EDC off the ground (but how much?)
    • Memory management – lots of code there – what works, what doesn’t?
  • Processes
    • mscorlib: parts of corlib which must be pushed into the nanokernel, other parts which can be kept out (depends on Mono.Cecil and the AOT, as far as what we have to push into the nanokernel)
    • GC: how can it fit into our EIC runtime components, to make sure we handle “managed” object references correctly?
  • Roadmap
    • MS 0.0.1: we’ve probably technically passed it!
    • MS 0.0.2: we need to split this up so that we can put out a release within the next couple months…
    • other milestone suggestions are needed!
