It's not really true that all people saying so, really avoid
operating systems, though :D<br>
They avoid _other people's_ operating systems and implement their
own, ad-hoc, emergent one - subsets of what is typically thought of
as an OS that they need, anyway,<br>
and probably close to a whole one across many projects.<br>
So hypothetically, an OS that could be configured at compile-time,
at an approptiate granularity, to only do what a project needs,<br>
could be a good solution that one does not need to reinvent or
rebuild oneself.<br>
<br>
While the behemoth Linux is not it,<br>
the Linux foundation now has an RTOS project under their wings. I
have only had contact with it as an example in the Renode emulator
platform, trying out its Unix-oid command line via serial port,
which could be configured to be minimal at compile-time, running on
some Cortex-M0.<br>
I have not looked more deeply into it & at how much of the rest
is optional & scalable, but it does pique my interest.<br>
