Exec64: VirtIO-GPU Driver Implementation & GUI First Steps (AArch64 Monolithic Kernel)

In this video, I’m showcasing the early development stages of Exec64, an Amiga-inspired operating system. This specific build features the initial implementation of the VirtIO-GPU driver running on an Aarch64 monolithic kernel.

Key highlights:

Successful initialization of the VirtIO-GPU device.

First graphics output using a custom monolithic kernel architecture (before moving to the current hybrid design).

Implementation of basic drawing routines and GUI primitives.

Demonstration of the system booting and rendering on QEMU (Apple Silicon host).
