This +will describe headers and .c files that need to exist for all +architectures and things they should include. The +.Ft machine/cpu.h +file contains information about the CPU for the specific +architecture. Required structures in this header include the +.Ft cpu_info +struct which contains CPU specific fields. + +Example +.Ft cpu_info +structure for x86_64 is shown below: + +.Bd -literal +struct cpu_info { + void *pmap; /* Current pmap */ + volatile uint32_t lapic_freq; + ... +}; +.Ed + +The macro +.Ft this_cpu() +calls an internal function that fetches the +cpu_info structure for the current CPU. + +The macro +.Ft get_bsp() +calls an internal function that fetches the +cpu_info structure for the BSP. + +The function these macros call must return a pointer +to a +.Ft cpu_info +structure. |
