System components that need an IRQ handling are now inheriting the
InterruptHandler class.
In addition to that, the initialization process of PATAChannel was
changed to fit the changes.
PATAChannel, E1000NetworkAdapter and RTL8139NetworkAdapter are now
inheriting from PCI::Device instead of InterruptHandler directly.
The problem was mostly in the initialization code, since in that stage
the parser assumed that there is an identity mapping in the first 1MB of
the address space. Now during initialization the parser will create the
correct mappings to locate the required data.
uintptr_t is 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the target platform.
This will help us write pointer size agnostic code so that when the day
comes that we want to do a 64-bit port, we'll be in better shape.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
Structures declarations changed __attribute__((__packed__))
to [[gnu::packed]] in ACPI & DMI definitions.
Also, declarations of array of pointers in ACPI RSDT/XSDT are correct
now. In addition to that, now we have a declaration of the ACPI MADT
table & the table entries.
mmap() & mmap_region() methods are removed from ACPI & DMI components,
and we replace them with the new MM.allocate_kernel_region() helper.
Instead of doing a raw calculation for each VM address, from now on we
can use helper functions to do perform those calculations in a neat,
reusable and readable way.
We use DMI decoding now just to determine if PCI is available.
The DMIDecoder is initialized during early boot, thus making it possible
to probe useful data about the machine.
Other purposes are not supported yet.
ACPI subsystem includes 3 types of parsers that are created during
runtime, each one capable of parsing ACPI tables at different level.
ACPIParser is the most basic parser which is essentialy a parser that
can't parse anything useful, due to a user request to disable ACPI
support in a kernel boot parameter.
ACPIStaticParser is a derived class from ACPIParser, which is able to
parse only static data (e.g. FADT, HPET, MCFG and other tables), thus
making it not able to parse AML (ACPI Machine Language) nor to support
handling of hardware events and power management. This type of parser
can be created with a kernel boot parameter.
ACPIDynamicParser is a derived class from ACPIStaticParser, which
includes all the capabilities of the latter, but *should* implement an
AML interpretation, (by building the ACPI AML namespace) and handling
power & hardware events. Currently the methods to support AML
interpretation are not implemented.
This type of parser is created automatically during runtime if the user
didn't specify a boot parameter related to ACPI initialization.
Also, adding strncmp function definition in StdLib.h, to be able to use
it in ACPIStaticParser class.
