I had a thought a while back: could one pilfer plan 9's libc and
kernel guts to build an embedded c library à la newlib? The idea is a
native hosted plan 9 microcontroller lab similar to arduino and your
microcontroller program would look like a bare metal plan 9 program.

A monitor or rtos would be more complex but channels and 9p on my
microcontroller would be neat. I'd even go as far to say you could
probably base it mostly on how thread(2) operates.

Be neat to have little wireless file servers all around your home (or
whatever) controlling or monitoring things.
