In LoseThos, core 0 is master and the rest are slaves. Also, LoseThos is for single-user home systems, not multiuser mainframes or servers.
It is multitasking, but, for example, does not break 100 block disk reads into pieces, so drive is locked and other tasks waiting on drive starve. I plan to keep it that way -- it's simpler.
I turn interrupts off during some parts of code AND employ a spin lock. Conceptually, turning-off interrupts instantly gives you mutex... exclusion from other tasks (on that core). For multicore, you need to go beyond, so I employ separate spin locks for everything. Technically, a spin lock alone is good enough without turning-off interrutps, but, I donno, just because I think it's more efficient, I turn-off interrupts, too. In almost all cases, applications are single core and run on core 0, so CLI provides no-waste solutions to mutual exclusion. My spin locks Yield CPU on failure, which is unacceptible for large-number-of-tasks systems. Go use Linux if you want that. If you want simpler, use LoseThos.

Hold-on. I lied. Those spin locks don't yield CPU.
The unorthodoxy of LoseThos and it's reason d'etre can be explained in the handling of large block number disk requests. It's obvious the LoseThos policy of not breaking-them-up ruins multitasking. It's also obvious that the code is way simpler. Once you start sleeping and allocating resources you get orders of magniotude more complicated code because you have to deal with releasing lock on aborts and not starving... fuck that. Use Linux.
Don't use Linux, however, if you are a programmer and "open source" sounds appealing. Trust me! You'll hate it!

Not that an 'over-powered' alg. is particularly difficult to build.... nor is it certainly secure, probably the opposite actually..
Currently encryption strength tends to sit just out of reach of your average attack cost vs perceived benefit/payout of an attack... old Hardware could probably run KiloByte+ keys, typically the main cost is the speed at which the key-schedule performs, rather than the actual encryption operations...
Not to mention the dent it 'supposedly' puts in national security... =)

How about watchdog locks? I.e. look auto-released in case of disuse. This would auto-protect from deadlocks and do garbage collection for you.
...actually i do have something, and i think it is secure, to a point at least... And its pretty big
technically it's not encryption yet either...? just the key schedule of something to be made cryptographic(?) potentially..?
funny story... when i put it on msn skydrive my account got locked somehow..? ...or I might've just forgot my pass but i'm sure i didn't hey...
Basically these are arrays of 256 ints between 0-255, no duplicate values, you can also muck around with the structures of these... more of that later maybe..?
Once you've got them, you build like a tree(?)
Say
(D)
|
(B) (C)
| /
(A)
First, B[i] = D[B[i]]; (Hash of B via D is a linear(?) offset of D via B)
...Then, A[i] = B[A[C[i]]]; (A[i] is Offset by C, then Hashed by D)
C/D are constant throughout the program, while A/B are Cyclic, with periods defined by their inputs.
'A' can be used as output per round, with higher strength if more than one round per output(?)
Difficulty of predicting the next A is that of knowing/guessing key C, which is !256
linear as defined as 'weak' or 'soft' /// singular op's are easily broken (albeit otherwise nonlinear)
btw !256 +- works out to be around 1800 bit// some loss of the 2048 bit space it occupies (*4 for the whole) so 1800 / 8000 ~ 25% (not very) efficient?
...Im not sure that there isn't attacks which would break it faster, if allowed the knowledge of many sequential outputs of A(?) though i can't/haven't figure(d) it
What tdavis has done is reinvent the wheel, but intentionally making it square this time. He's spent seven years of his life making an "OS" that isn't really an OS at all. It's some kind of machine-native IDE that's supposed to imitate the old glory days of the C64's native BASIC interpreter.
Unfortunately for him, he could have just installed any variety of Linux and had something far more powerful (gcc, gdb, emacs) right out of the box, without sacrificing compatibility with every other program in existence as he has.
Seven years of his life gone, and he's still going strong on developing something that's orders of magnitude less useful than what every computer in the world already has access to, for free.
