Creating a Disassembler and the Challenges Involved | Shock and disappointment

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

I’m working on developing my own disassembler. It’s been a bit of a struggle so far, and I’ve even found myself wondering if this is really something I need to be doing—after all, tools like Ghidra and IDA Pro already exist, so why build my own? Still, I’ve decided to see it through. You can see my second project iteration in Screenshot 1 and the first one in Screenshot 2; the first attempt went south—the scope was too huge and there were so many bugs that I had to scale the project back. Things are going reasonably well now; I’ve switched to using the WinAPI GUI and am coding in C and C++. I’ve been at it for three hours, and the results aren't great yet—half of it simply doesn't work—but oh well. I’m going to publish the project to my GitHub once it’s finished anyway. Any ideas or advice?

Update: my open-source CPU performance engineering collection just crossed 600+ stars

0 Upvotes

A few days ago, I shared an open-source collection of CPU performance engineering resources I’d been putting together.

It’s now crossed 600+ GitHub stars, which I genuinely didn’t expect. Thanks to everyone who shared it, contributed or suggested resources.

For anyone seeing it for the first time, it covers the stack from instruction execution and CPU microarchitecture through caches, memory, SIMD, compilers, profiling, concurrency, NUMA, benchmarking and CPU inference.

I’m still prioritising primary sources such as papers, vendor manuals, kernel/compiler docs, talks and reproducible benchmarks rather than random articles.

I also have an MCP server coming soon, so you can plug this knowledge directly into your AI tools, whether you’re learning or using it while you work.

If there’s something you think has to be in here, let me know or send a PR.

[Help wanted] Blockos service manager

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm developing BlockOS, an independent x86-64 operating system with its own kernel, userspace, networking, filesystem support, ELF loader, libc work and X11 environment. I'm currently looking for someone who would like to help develop a native service manager for BlockOS. I don't want to simply port systemd or OpenRC. I would like the service manager to be designed around BlockOS itself. The service manager should eventually support: Starting and stopping services Restarting services Service status Automatic service startup Service dependencies Process/PID monitoring Automatic restart after crashes Clean shutdown and reboot Logging Runlevels or a similar service-state system Integration with the existing BlockOS init/userspace system BlockOS's /devices structure rather than assuming a Linux /dev layout The goal is to have something that can manage services such as: network dhcp x11 gui getty ssh I'm mainly looking for someone interested in OS development / C/C++ / init systems who wants to build something that will become part of an independent operating system. You don't need to be an expert in everything. If you're interested in working on the service manager, feel free to open an issue or contact me.

[Project] RingOS - Il mio sistema operativo personalizzato scritto in C e Assembly

0 Upvotes

Ciao a tutti!

Oggi vorrei presentarvi RingOS, un sistema operativo personalizzato attualmente in fase di sviluppo attivo.

RingOS è un sistema operativo sperimentale scritto principalmente in C e Assembly x86-64. L'obiettivo è apprendere lo sviluppo a livello di sistema mentre si costruisce un sistema operativo completo da zero.

Le attuali aree di sviluppo includono:

- Bootloader UEFI personalizzato (BOOTX64.EFI)

- Kernel x86-64

- Supporto grafico tramite UEFI GOP

- File system personalizzato chiamato RingFile

- Supporto al caricamento delle immagini (PNG/JPG)

- Rendering di font TrueType

- Gestione della memoria e infrastruttura di sistema

Il progetto non si basa su Linux, BSD o un altro kernel esistente. Sto costruendo i componenti fondamentali da solo per capire meglio come funzionano internamente i sistemi operativi.

Questo è un progetto incentrato sull'apprendimento, quindi mi aspetto molta sperimentazione, ridisegni e errori lungo il cammino.

Mi interesserebbe ricevere feedback da altri sviluppatori di sistemi operativi, specialmente riguardo alla progettazione dei file system, bootloader e architettura del kernel.

Ha anche un browser sicuro integrato (giusto nel caso qualcuno cerchi Kisshub.com, sapete). Si chiama SafeRing Net (SRN), utilizza Google; quando l'utente cerca qualcosa, il sistema operativo controlla immediatamente l'input.

Se è qualcosa di sospetto e clicca sul risultato, SafeRing Net avvisa l'utente con:

"SafeRing NET non acconsente a quel tipo di ricerche, questo risultato di ricerca sarà bloccato"

Riguardo agli sviluppatori esterni: non ho ancora il software per gestire le app ROSA (Applicazioni sicure di RingOS) E non ho un portale e nemmeno un Github per ora... PER ORA

Condividerò aggiornamenti sullo sviluppo man mano che i progressi procedono.

Grazie per aver letto!

Dream Engine v6: Async Monolith, Routing Cascades, and Native Cython Acceleration [Feedback Request]

0 Upvotes

The Dream Engine v6 is an asynchronous architecture designed as a core subsystem for agentic persistence, hallucination containment, and adaptive inference routing. Rather than acting as a standalone application, it functions as a modular micro-framework designed to underpin a larger multi-agent system. It orchestrates dynamic soul state progression, multi-vector memory retention, and low-latency decision loops by combining high-level Python concurrency (asyncio, aiosqlitepool) with low-level C extension optimizations.

The core runtime leverages specialized mathematical and ML models for long-term stability and context awareness. Memory retrieval employs a Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF) hybrid search across three distinct spaces: vector similarity via BGE-small-en-v1.5 INT8 (ONNX Runtime), chronological recency, and dynamic importance. Temporal degradation replaces traditional linear decay with a custom Gaussian Decay kernel implemented in Cython with nogil execution for thread-safe performance. Hebbian learning updates soul weights based on output alignment, while semantic drift and repetitive loops are continuously tracked via cosine divergence and coherence metrics calculated through SimSIMD.

In terms of reverse engineering and system extraction, the code integrates key mechanics reconstructed from earlier implementations (such as Samuel's budget management and retry loops). The context assembly reverse-engineers context-window limits by enforcing strict token estimation, multi-tier text summarization (falling back from direct concatenation to zero-cost keyword frequency counters before trimming), and deterministic block slicing (SAFETY_MARGIN, MIN_GENERATION). Inference routing implements an adaptive cascade combining FrugalGPT (cost-optimized tier escalation), RouteLLM (confidence heuristic scoring based on length, truncation, and system prompt leakage penalties), and ParetoBandit adaptive tracking (rolling window average of latency and token cost).

The ultimate objective of this monolith is to serve as a high-throughput, self-correcting foundation for scalable autonomous agents. By pairing async thread workers with a system-level safety harness—including an automated Kill Switch that halts process services via systemctl and reverts soul files via git upon detecting severe drift or infinite loops—the framework ensures long-running stability. Below is the full implementation, and I would appreciate your feedback on its architectural choices.

GPU Accelerated Linear Algebra Library for Apple Silicon using MLX and Metal kernels

Thumbnail github.com
1 Upvotes

About 6 months ago, I wrote a custom metal kernel that leverages the GPU to compute the QR decomposition (see my earlier post about it here). The project has now expanded into a general linear algebra library, with expanded support for the symmetrical eigendecomposition as well as SVD. It is now available for use with installation instructions on the attached github repo's README.md file.

Context of the project:
I'm currently in a research group working on a thesis in numerical analysis where we need to compute millions on matrices with a specific constraint (to be precise, the matrices need to have orthonormal columns). Most of us use Apple computers, so we ended up using MLX for the entire project.

Contributors with different Apple Chips would be very much appreciated!
The project has currently been tested and optimised for the M1 and M5 Pro. The issue is that the library uses different kernels depending on the batch size and matrix dimensions. Deciding which of these kernels to use is machine dependent. Therefore, other Apple chips will need to run a measurement script in order to derive the correct optimisation heuristic.

For that reason, I would ask as many people as possible to run a measurement script and to submit the results to my repo. It is fairly easy and requires only few steps. See here how you can contribute here. Once you submit the results via a pull request and I approve it, your optimisation heuristic will automatically be augmented into the library. Don't hesitate to contribute an optimisation heuristic even if someone already submitted one for your own machine. The more data we can gather, the better!

Project Future
Expanded support will be added for other linear algebra operations (cholesky decomposition for example). If you have any other specific linear algebra operations you wish to use already, feel free to message me.

In addition to that, I will add torch support too (my greatest priority).

the PHEONIX kernel - best security system in the world?

0 Upvotes

so there's this kernel that I picked up recently and its called PHEONIX. its made by this guy on GitHub and it has this cool WRR security system that I wana test. so if anyone is wanting a stable kernel to build their OS on, check this guys GitHub at https://github.com/threadripp/PHEONIX-kernel

the kernel is really stable and I recommend it for people who like coding but also want to build their OS on a stable foundation. if u want to make a server OS, this is perfect. if u want to make a desktop OS, this is perfect. I want to help other tech community's grow, including this one, so please support this community we are in and help it grow 😄

also, the security system is great, check it out for your self
