I doubt that V8 is "rebased on 4(.1?)BSD": in my understanding it ported = some code from 4xBSD, but it is a different code base. As I currently understand it, the V8 kernel: - is a further development from 32V - retains the code organisation of the V5..32V versions - adds virtual memory code from BSD - adds select() from BSD and then adds all the V8 innovation on top of that (streams, file system = switch, virtual proc file system, networking, remote file system, = support for the Blit terminal, etc.) In particular in the area of networking the V8 kernel is organised quite = differently from the 4xBSD kernel, including the Chaosnet driver (i.e. = it is streams based).
