This directory contains architecture-specific implementations (currently i686-focused), including early boot, CPU descriptor tables, interrupt entry stubs, and paging/stack internals.

Summary

  • Boot entry and platform bring-up live here.

  • Low-level assembly interfaces for interrupts, context transitions, and descriptor loading are implemented here.

  • Architecture memory primitives back the generic memory and HAL layers.

Typical Work in This Area

  • Bring up a new CPU architecture target.

  • Adjust interrupt, syscall, and context-switch assembly paths.

  • Tune paging and trap behavior for architecture-specific semantics.
