Ironclad
Hard real-time capable kernel written in SPARK/Ada
Ironclad is a partially formally verified, hard real-time capable kernel for general-purpose and embedded uses, written in SPARK and Ada. It is comprised of 100% free software, free in the sense that it respects the user's freedom. By providing a UNIX-like interface which ensures an easy porting process from Linux and BSD distributions, Ironclad aims to be a solution for developers searching for a security-first, resilient platform with the smallest barrier to entry.
This project will work on expanding hardware support for x86_64 Intel and AMD based systems, bringing Ironclad to RISC-V 64 bit based platforms, expanding several areas of the kernel, and work on Ironclad-based distributions.
