You are interested in getting familiar with the GNU/Hurd system architecture,
or specific components of it? Here is a collection of texts to read.
/!\ A lot of stuff is still missing ([[!taglink open_issue_documentation]]).
[[!toc levels=3]]
# Basic Knowledge
Before you can go details, you have to learn the basics about operating system
architecture. Yes, really.
## Operating Systems Basics
Books. Etc.
## GNU/Hurd System Architecture
### Capabilities
[[!toggleable id=shapiro_capintro_1999 text="""[[!template id=note
text="*[[shapiro\_capintro\_1999|capability]]*:
{{$capability#shapiro_capintro_1999}}.
{{$capability#shapiro_capintro_1999_text}}."]]"""]]
* Our use of [[capabilities|capability]]. The
{{$capability#wikipedia_capability-based_security}} article.
Alternatively/additionally, [[!toggle id=shapiro_capintro_1999
text="[shapiro\_capintro\_1999]"]].
In the GNU/Hurd system, a [[capability]] is represented by a [[Mach
port|microkernel/mach/port]].
* {{$capability#wikipedia_object-capability_model}}. Albeit not directly
tailored at the GNU/Hurd operating system architecture, this artice anyway
does a good job at describing general principles of a [[capability]]-based
system architecture.
