Crate kernel 

Kernel entry point and early-boot global state.

Authors: MarioS271

Modules

arch 🔒

Architecture-specific subsystems: GDT, TSS, IDT, and interrupt controllers.

config 🔒

Global Compile-Time Kernel Configuration

logging 🔒

Kernel logging: serial output and the [kprint!] macro.

mem 🔒

Memory subsystem: physical memory manager, virtual memory manager, and heap allocator.

panic 🔒

Kernel panic paths: kernel_panic for explicit kernel panics and the required #[panic_handler] for language-level panics.

screen 🔒

Screen output: linear framebuffer access and PSF2 font rendering.

state 🔒

Global kernel state: [KState] aggregate and [KStateSubCategory] trait.

types 🔒

Shared kernel types: IrqMutex, FmtBuffer, AlignedStack, and panic codes.

Macros

kalert

Log a line at alert severity (action must be taken immediately).

kcrit

Log a line at critical severity.

kdebug

Log a line at debug severity; compiled out unless the debug-logging feature is enabled.

kemerg

Log a line at emergency severity (system is unusable).

kerror

Log a line at error severity.

kinfo

Log a line at info severity.

kprint

Print a formatted message (like print!) to all active kernel output sinks.

kwarn

Log a line at warning severity.

Structs

SimpleKernelState 🔒

Early-boot singleton resources; written once in kmain, then read-only.

Statics

LIMINE_FRAMEBUFFER_REQUEST 🔒

Limine request for the linear framebuffer.

LIMINE_HHDM_REQUEST 🔒

Limine request for the Higher-Half Direct Map (HHDM) offset.

LIMINE_MEMMAP_REQUEST 🔒

Limine request for the physical memory map.

SIMPLE_STATE 🔒

Global early-boot state, readable from anywhere in the kernel once initialized.

Functions

kmain 🔒

Kernel entry point called by the Limine bootloader; runs boot init and never returns.
