Would KolibriOS be more efficient if it was written in machine code instead of assembler?

You're wrong - Kolibri should be written in microcode embedded CPU.

- apart of CPU, there exist less sophisticated programmable devices inside PC those require hell of programming of their own microcontrollers in bare machine code.
KolibriOS yet needs this work to be done to utilise 100% of the hardware resources, and to run even faster.

Would Kolibri be more efficient if it is written in microcode, instead of machine code or assembler? Is there anything more basic than microcode?

We're probably talking in different terms.
Would you please tell us the what microcode do you mean and its difference of the CPU code?

In some computer architectures, the machine code is implemented by a more fundamental underlying layer of programs called microprograms, providing a common machine language interface across a line or family of different models of computer with widely different underlying dataflows. This is done to facilitate porting of machine language programs between different models. An example of this use is the IBM System/360 family of computers and their successors. With dataflow path widths of 8 bits to 64 bits and beyond, they nevertheless present a common architecture at the machine language level across the entire line.

Using a microcode layer to implement an emulator enables the computer to present the architecture of an entirely different computer. The System/360 line used this to allow porting programs from earlier IBM machines to the new family of computers, e.g. an IBM 1401/1440/1460 emulator on the IBM S/360 model 40.

Of course there is! Weak interactions of quarks satisfy you?

x86 has a solid microcode = machine code = physical realization of assembly instructions.

Don't panic, he is not as terrible as he might appear when you know him better

I came across the term "Microassembler".

If Kolibri was written in microcode embedded CPU, would it be more efficient with or without the use of a microassembler?
