According to the github analysis, the kernel repository is:
So yeah, its basically all C, plus a tiny bit of assembly for very low level bootstrapping and some helper scripts.
Yeah but a lot of that C code has inline assembly so it's more like 5-10% asm.
Inline assembly is such a shit practice. But c++ bad.
Sometimes you can't get around it though.
Afaik MSVC forbids it and it’s one of the very few nice things about c++ on windows.
If you need to write assembly don’t fucking do it in a cpp file. Create a header, an assembly file, assemble it and link to it.
Wot no Delphi?
No VB6 either 🤷♂️
How can one write a kernel without using VB6 at all?
Yeah, indeed, why not 🤔...
I use Arch btw
