  • Process management primitives
  • Preemptive multitasking
  • Priority-based scheduling
  • Semaphore synchronization
  • Message-passing interprocess communication
  • Sleep and wake
  • Dynamic memory allocation
  • Synchronous and asynchronous serial drivers
  • Buffered I/O
  • Device-independent I/O layer
  • Embedded MIPS32 loader
  • Interactive shell with basic commands
  • Wired network driver
  • Programmable network switch (Using IEEE 802.1Q)

Xinu Console Tools

The XINU Console Daemon and various associated utilities provide network clients with connectivity to backend consoles that are really only connected directly to the console host. The xinu-console software package is now freely available for UNIX console hosts and front end clients.

(Note: Information about the Windows version of the console tools can be found on the WinXINU page.)
