A microkernel OS for learning operating system. versatilepb / raspi1,2,3 ported well, raspi4 todo....
-mmu
-smp multi-core
-copy on write
-multi processes
-multi thread
-ipc
-virtual fs service(everythig is a file)
-very simple ramdisk for initrd
-framebuffer device service for graphics
-uart device service
-SD card

.Environment & Tools

QEMU: 
	modified qemu file: hw/sd/sd.c and recompile
	......
	if(req.arg & ACMD41_ENQUIRY_MASK) { //modified by Misa.Z 
	/*if (FIELD_EX32(sd->ocr & req.arg, OCR, VDD_VOLTAGE_WINDOW)) {*/
		/* We accept any voltage.  10000 V is nothing.
		*
		* Once we're powered up, we advance straight to ready state
		* unless it's an enquiry ACMD41 (bits 23:0 == 0).

		sd->state = sd_ready_state;
