x86_64 library
Fork of gz/rust-x86.
Library to program x86_64 hardware. Contains x86_64 specific data structure descriptions, data-tables, as well as convenience function to call assembly instructions typically not exposed in higher level languages.
Currently supports
- I/O registers
- Control registers
- MSR registers
- Interrupts
- Task state
- Querying CPUID (uses raw_cpuid library)
This library depends on libcore so it can be used in kernel level code.
