agentrt-linux Services (AirymaxOS Services)

Services subsystem of agentrt-linux（AirymaxOS） — the AI Agent Operating System. One of the leaf repositories aggregated by the agentrt-linux management repo. Reuses and extends the Airymax daemons module for OS-level user-space services.

---

Overview

The agentrt-linux Services (AirymaxOS Services) (airymaxos-services) is the user-space services subsystem of agentrt-linux（AirymaxOS）, the AI Agent Operating System. It implements the microkernel user-space service layer: VFS, networking and drivers are moved out of the kernel into user-space daemons, integrated with systemd via 12 dedicated daemons, and connected to the kernel through io_uring-based message passing.

In agentrt-linux 0.1.1, this repository is documentation complete (文档体系完成) containing design documents, reference distribution specifications, and architectural drafts. Actual kernel and OS development takes place in version 1.0.1.

Core Technologies

• VFS / networking / driver user-space migration following the microkernel separation principle
• 12 systemd daemons for service lifecycle, supervision and dependency management
• io_uring message passing for high-throughput, low-latency kernel↔user IPC
• systemd integration aligned with reference distribution service management standards
• Capability-based service access delegating to the agentrt-linux Security (AirymaxOS Security) subsystem

Relationship with Airymax daemons

The agentrt-linux Services (AirymaxOS Services) reuses and extends the daemons module from the Airymax runtime platform. The daemon framework, IPC contracts and supervision model are shared between the user-space runtime (agentrt) and the OS-level service layer (agentrt-linux（AirymaxOS）), ensuring architectural homology with no adaptation layer.

Upstream & Downstream Dependencies

Upstream

• agentrt-linux Kernel (AirymaxOS Kernel) — provides the micro-core primitives, sched_ext and io_uring entry points
• Airymax daemons — provides the daemon framework and IPC contracts that are reused and extended
• Euler 24.03 LTS / 26.03 — reference distribution for systemd and service standards

Downstream

• agentrt-linux System（AirymaxOS System） — system layer that packages and configures the service set
• agentrt-linux Cloudnative（AirymaxOS Cloudnative） — cloud-native layer that consumes the service surface

Branch Strategy

This leaf repository is developed on feature/official-hubs-01. The aggregating agentrt-linux management repo stays on main.
