Detailed Description
Startup of the first core, also known as bootstrap processor (BSP)
Function Documentation
void startup_bsp | ( | ) |
Entry point of your kernel.
Executed by boot loader. Stores Pointer to Multiboot information structure, initializes stack pointer, switches to long mode and finally calls the C++ kernel_init function
void kernel_init | ( | ) |
Initializes the C++ environment and detects system components.
The startup code(both for bootstrap and application processor) jumps to this high level function. After initialization it will call main() or main_ap() respectively
int main | ( | ) |
Kernels main function.
Called after initialization of the system by kernel_init()
- Note
- This code will only be executed on the booting CPU (i.e., the one with ID 0).
int main_ap | ( | ) |
Entry point for application processors.
Called after initialization of the system by kernel_init()
- Note
- Code in this function will be executed on all APs (i.e., all CPUs except ID 0)
