Function Documentation

◆ getIOAPICAddress()

uintptr_t APIC::getIOAPICAddress ( )

Queries the I/O-APIC address determined during system boot.

Returns
Base address of the (first & only supported) I/O APIC

◆ getIOAPICID()

uint8_t APIC::getIOAPICID ( )

Queries of ID of the I/O-APIC determined during system boot.

Returns
Identification of the (first & only supported) I/O APIC

◆ getLAPICID()

uint8_t APIC::getLAPICID ( uint8_t core)

Get the Local APIC ID of a CPU.

Parameters
coreQuery CPU core number
Returns
LAPIC ID of CPU or INVALID_ID if invalid CPU ID

◆ getLogicalAPICID()

uint8_t APIC::getLogicalAPICID ( uint8_t core)

Returns the logical ID of the Local APIC passed for core.

The LAPIC's logical ID is set (by StuBS) during boot such that exactly one bit is set per CPU core. For core 0, bit 0 is set in its ID, while core 1 has bit 1 set, etc.

Parameters
coreThe queried CPU core

◆ init()

bool APIC::init ( )

Executes system detection.

Searches and evaluates the APIC entries in the ACPI table. This function recognizes a possibly existing multicore system. After successful detection, the number of available CPUs (which is equal to the number of local APICs) ) can be queried using the method Core::count().

Note
Called by kernel_init() on BSP
Returns
true if detection of the APIC entries was successful

Variable Documentation

◆ INVALID_ID

const uint8_t APIC::INVALID_ID = 0xff

Invalid APIC ID.

The highest address is reserved according to xAPIC specification
