Reto Buerki	4e259f7b1e	hw_x86_64: Implement LAPIC-based kernel timer The LAPIC timer is programmed in one-shot mode with vector 32 (Board::TIMER_VECTOR_KERNEL). The timer frequency is measured using PIT channel 2 as reference (50ms delay). Disable PIT timer channel 0 since BIOS programs it to fire periodically. This avoids potential spurious timer interrupts.	2015-03-27 11:53:31 +01:00

Norman Feske	a974726e26	hw: skeleton for building on x86_64 This patch contains the initial code needed to build and bootstrap the base-hw kernel on x86 64-bit platforms. It gets stuck earlier because the binary contains 64-bit instructions, but it is started in 32-bit mode. The initial setup of page tables and switch to long mode is still missing from the crt0 code.	2015-03-27 11:53:16 +01:00

hw_x86_64: Implement LAPIC-based kernel timer

The LAPIC timer is programmed in one-shot mode with vector 32
(Board::TIMER_VECTOR_KERNEL). The timer frequency is measured using PIT
channel 2 as reference (50ms delay).

Disable PIT timer channel 0 since BIOS programs it to fire periodically.
This avoids potential spurious timer interrupts.

hw: skeleton for building on x86_64

This patch contains the initial code needed to build and bootstrap the
base-hw kernel on x86 64-bit platforms. It gets stuck earlier
because the binary contains 64-bit instructions, but it is started in
32-bit mode. The initial setup of page tables and switch to long mode is
still missing from the crt0 code.
