The implementation initializes the Local APIC (LAPIC) of CPU 0 in xapic
mode (mmio register access) and uses the I/O APIC to remap, mask and
unmask hardware IRQs. The remapping offset of IRQs is 48.
Also initialize the legacy PIC and mask all interrupts in order to
disable it.
For more information about LAPIC and I/O APIC see Intel SDM Vol. 3A,
chapter 10 and the Intel 82093AA I/O Advanced Programmable Interrupt
Controller (IOAPIC) specification
Set bit 9 in the RFLAGS register of user CPU context to enable
interrupts on kernel- to usermode switch.
The class Genode::Tss represents a 64-bit Task State Segment (TSS) as
specified by Intel SDM Vol. 3A, section 7.7.
The setup function sets the stack pointers for privilege levels 0-2 to
the kernel stack address. The load function loads the TSS segment
selector into the task register.
* Add isr.s assembler file:
The file declares an array of Interrupt Service Routines (ISR) to handle
the exception vectors from 0 to 19, see Intel SDM Vol. 3A, section
6.3.1.
* Add Idt class:
* The class Genode::Idt represents an Interrupt Descriptor Table as
specified by Intel SDM Vol. 3A, section 6.10.
* The setup function initializes the IDT with 20 entries using the ISR
array defined in the isr.s assembly file.
* Setup and load IDT in Genode::Cpu ctor:
The Idt::setup function is only executed once on the BSP.
* Declare ISRs for interrupts 20-255
* Set IDT size to 256
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.
