As far as I can tell, the main differences between oeprating systems is that they are all themed a little differently. For example, on Windows the "X-out" button is on the top right of the window. On Apples, the "X-out" button is on the top left. Another difference is that there's no start button when you're using an Apple. Are there any other differences you guys have noticed?

akadajet posted:I'm going to pretend I know what int 80h does morally the same thing as SYSENTER (aka SYSCALL on AMD) but with slightly different calling conventions and wildly different performance characteristics depending on your particular hardware (e: would you like to know more?) The whole "multiple ways to invoke a syscall, depending on your particular flavour of x86" is partially why you see a vsyscall section in your /proc/pid/maps; the idea is that the optimal system call implementation is chosen by the OS and shoved into that segment, so you can just execute "call 0xffffffffff600000" and it will automagically do the right thing I mostly just wanted to dunk on "OS interface design by shoving new functionality into ioctl(2)" e: I actually have no idea how a system call happens on x86-64 though Dijkstracula fucked around with this message at 03:36 on Oct 8, 2023 |

dunno OP, none of the operating systems i use have windows to x out on them at at all. have you considered the possibility that all the operating systems you have used are a POS?

some operating systems require you to memorize weird key layouts in order to control the windows and do things. Like windows key + j to change windows.
