Operating System Primitives with Rust (Atomics & Locks Chapter 8)

This session we walked through Chapter 8: Operating System Primitives. Chapter 8 dives in to the operating system primitives we use like threads, looks at how the OS interfaces with the kernel, explores futexes, and more. To get the most out of these sessions, reading the chapter before hand is recommended, but not required.
