Hi! In lieu of our weekly meeting, here's a quick status update. The past week, I worked on: - Making FreeBSD's bootloader load a custom ELF kernel, and then RTEMS static binaries - Fixing cpu.h up to reflect the x86_64 feature set - Fixing the linker script up for my stub to allow for sysinit functions to be included and called - WIP: Context initialization and switching code
Next up (estimating 2 weeks until complete): - Finish all of the RTEMS initialization required to get to bsp_start successfully (for eg. it seems like sysinit calls filesystem initialization routines, which I'm stubbing out for now, but will need to implement to avoid having the testsuite end up throwing "rtems_fatal_error_occurred". - Port FreeBSD's console code to get to hello world with our stub I'm aiming to get to a hacky working hello.exe as soon as possible, and then we can work on making all the initialization routines, the linker script. etc. be clean and perfectly correct instead of merely functional in the emulator.
