Brief introduction

Magenta is the core platform that powers the Fuchsia OS. Magenta iscomposed of a microkernel as well as a small set of userspace services,drivers, and libraries necessary for the System to boot, talk to hardware,load userspace processes and run them, etc. Fuchsia builds a much largeros on top of the This foundation.

The Magenta Kernel is a medium-sized microkernel. It provides services (via Syscalls) to manage processes, threads, virtual memory, Inter-processcommunication, waiting on OB Ject state changes, and locking (via Futexes).

Currently there is some temporary syscalls that has been used for earlybringup work, which'll be going away in the FUT Ure as the long Termsyscall Api/abi surface is finalized. The expectation is this there willbe 10s, not 100s of Syscalls.

Magenta Syscalls is generally non-blocking. The wait (one, many, set) family of Syscalls, Ioport reads, and thread sleep being the notableexceptions.
