Hello!
I am a not-so-experienced programmer and I started a personal project
which requires a deep understanding of the OpenBSD kernel - no, I am not
going to fork another BSD style operating system. I wonder if there is
documentation describing the kernel, other that the comments in the
source. For a start, I am reading Andrew Tanenbaum's "Modern Operating
Systems", 2nd edition and trying to follow the code in the kernel
source, starting with sys/kern/init_main.c
Is this a wrong approach? Do you have other suggestions? I know there's
no easy way and I am not looking for one, all I want is a starting point.
Regards,
George
