9db5b975f9 kernel/x86_64: rework of IDT handling code
Similarly to previous patch regarding GDT this is mostly a rewrite of
IDT handling code from C to C++. Thanks to constexpr IDT is now entirely
generated at compile-time.

cd59bf4349 kernel/x86_64: x86_64 gdt handling code overhaul
Virtually no functional change, just rewriting the code from
"C in *.cpp files" to C++. Use of constexpr may be advantageous but
that code is not performance critical anyway.

527da4ca8a x86[_64]: Separate bootloader and kernel GDT and IDT logic
From now on bootloader sets up its own minimal valid GDT and IDT. Then
the kernel replaces them with its own tables.

611376fef7 x86: Let each CPU have its own GDT 2013-12-17 03:57:20 +01:00

b5c9d24abc Implemented threading for x86_64.
* Thread creation and switching is working fine, however threads do not yet
  get interrupted because I've not implemented hardware interrupt handling
  yet (I'll do that next).
* I've made some changes to struct iframe: I've removed the e/r prefixes
  from the member names for both 32/64, so now they're just named ip, ax,
  bp, etc. This makes it easier to write code that works with both 32/64
  without having to deal with different iframe member names.

4304bb9894 Added arch_cpu.cpp to the x86_64 build.
* Some things are currently ifndef'd out completely for x86_64 because
  they aren't implemented, there's a few other ifdef's to handle x86_64
  differences but most of the code works unchanged.
* Renamed some i386_* functions to x86_*.
* Added a temporary method for setting the current thread on x86_64
  (a global variable, not SMP safe). This will be changed to be done
  via the GS segment but I've not implemented that yet.

0897e314b7 Merged x86_64 headers into x86 headers.
Not many changes seeing as there's not much x86_64 stuff done yet. Small
differences are handled with ifdefs, large differences (descriptors.h,
struct iframe) have separate headers under arch/x86/32 and arch/x86/64.
