Even if people wouldn't normally run init (the scripts, not /sbin/init I'm assuming), there's an error here that I'd like to fix. I'm expecting it's just that a string got mangled while being copied around so I shouldn't even have to dreg kernel innards to fix it.
There are few things that are next. The first thing I'd like to do, after fixing the apparent issues with the output below, is to go back and fix up the two hacks I'm aware of that I have in my tree. The first is handling TLB misses more cleanly. The second is that my syscall tracer is still just stuck to the side of the exec tracer, but that should be mostly mechanical to correct. After that, I'd like to take care of the unimplemented instructions which are being skipped/warned about, support checkpointing, set up a golden model to compare execution against somehow, start working on 32 bit support in SE, and work on propagating my new message based interrupt scheme into the other ISAs. I'd also like to try other kernel versions/compiles with other config options to see what errors those expose. Beyond that, in no particular order, I'd like to work on some sort of BIOS/boot loader set up so I can boot all the way from power on to power off, add minimal ACPI support, fill out my SMBios table, add a simple graphics device of some sort, and try to tighten up performance. Performance might actually be something to work on earlier since it would make all the other work a little more palatable. There are stretch marks on the simple CPU specifically from the microcode stuff but also unaligned memory accesses which I'd like to address at some point.
