              Detailed Description

              Class abstracting a single HPET comparator.

              Abstracts the access to comparators. This class does not have any constructor, as it is used to encapsulate hardware structures already residing in memory.

              The Registers for HPET comparator n are memory mapped at HPET base address plus offset

              • 0x100 + 0x20 * n for Configuration and Capability Register
              • 0x108 + 0x20 * n for Comparator Value Register and
              • 0x110 + 0x20 * n for FSB Interrupt Route Register

              Use HPET::getComparator to obtain an instance for a particular HPET comparator.

              Member Function Documentation

              bool HPET::Comparator::supportsIOAPICSlot ( unsigned  slot) const
              inline

              Can this comparator trigger interrupts at an specific I/O-APIC Slot?

              The standard mapping (not legacy or FSB!) is able to route interrupts to some I/O APIC slots. The possible slots can be determined by the corresponding bit in supported_ioapic_slots of the ConfigAndCapabilitiesRegister

              Note
              Currently Qemu/KVM only supports one slot (2) for comparators, which is shared as well.

              bool HPET::Comparator::supportsPeriodicInterrupts ( ) const
              inline

              Is this comparator capable of sending peridic interrupts?

              See also
              IA-PC HPET - 2.4.3.2 Mapping Option #2: Standard Option
              Returns
              true if comparator is capable of periodic interrupts
              bool HPET::Comparator::isActive ( ) const

              Check if this comparator triggered an interrupt.

              Reads the corresponding bit of the General Interrupt Status Register if this comparator triggered an interrupt

              Note
              Only works for comparators operating in LEVEL triggered mode!
              See also
              IA-PC HPET - 2.3.6 General Interrupt Status Register
              Returns
              true if interrupt was triggered
              void HPET::Comparator::setHandled ( )

              Mark this comparator interrupt as handled.

              Sets the corresponding bit of the General Interrupt Status Register to mark the interrupt of this comparator as handled.

              Note
              Only works for comparators operating in LEVEL triggered mode!

              bool HPET::Comparator::set ( uint64_t  usecs,
              uint8_t  slot,
              bool  periodic 
              )

              Sets the comperator.

              Calculates the required ticks, sets the mode and I/O APIC slot for this comparator.

              Since the I/O APIC slot might be shared with another device, the comparator should be configured to use level triggered interrupts (in standard interrupt mapping). The handler has to use isActive to verify that this HPET comparator was the source and mark it as handled.

              Note
              For periodic comperators, you need to reset the global counter to zero (using HPET::reset) to guarantee that the first interrupt will be fired (and therefore the comparator turns operational).
              The global counter should be disabled while configuring the comparator (or you might lose interrupts)

              periodicIf set, the interrupt will be issued periodically
              Returns
              true iff comperator was set up successful, false otherwise.

              Member Data Documentation

              volatile uint64_t HPET::Comparator::config_register
              protected

              Comparator Configuration and Capability Register.

              In addition to global configuration and value registers, every HPET comparator comes with its own configuration register containing config used locally by the respective timer.

              Note
              Only 32- or 64-bit access allowed (use local temporary copy for modifications)
              See also
              IA-PC HPET - 2.3.8 Timer N Configuration and Capabilities Register
              volatile uint64_t HPET::Comparator::value_register
              protected

              Comparator Value Register.

              The comparator value register yields a different behavior depending on the timer mode:

              For single-shot timers, the interrupt is issued (if enabled) once, as soon as the global timer is equal to the configured value. When using 32-bit timers, an additional interrupt is issued when the global counter overflows.

              For periodic timers, the mode of operation is as follows:

              1. A first interrupt will be triggered when the global counter is equal to the value stored in this register.
              2. From there on, the HPET will automatically increase the value by the initial period. Reading from this registers will return the point in time the next interrupt will be issued.
              Note
              Only 32- or 64-bit access allowed

              Note
              Currently, this register is not used by StuBS; it's definition is only here for the sake of completeness.
