So, I finally got around to adding paging to my OS, but now I'm not sure what to do :/ I kinda want to implement a memory manager but I don't know where to start and most importantly, I don't know whats the best way to do it so I don't run into problems later. I also wanted to implement multitasking, but isn't it more important to get a working memory management system first ? Hope someone can point me in the right direction ^^ |

When you implement multitasking, you want to store the state of the tasks. You'd want to dynamically allocate the memory for the task structures, so I'd implement a memory manager first. For dynamically allocating memory, you might want to see the wiki article about Heap. There are multiple ways to implement a heap. I'd recommend checking if your heap implementation works correctly after you implemented it, otherwise you might run into annoying issues. |
