bunnie 74f75e1ef5 re-org swap code for readability, add oom_doom routine
some thought needs to go into when and how we call oom_doom
but let's test more core functionality of the swapper before we
worry about that. I can think of several places where we could
use that call, the main tricky bit is that oom_doom diverges
and so wherever we patch it has to be able to resume. If we put
it into e.g. somewhere in the main memory alloc loop, the trouble
is we would have to track all of the multiple places that we
could have arrived there...ideally we can find a single spot
to patch this, with a clean entry and exit path.

Xous Kernel

This contains the core kernel for Xous. It requires a stage 1 loader in order to start up, as it assumes the system is already running in Supervisor mode.

Building

To build the kernel, you will need a riscv32 target for Rust. Possible targets include riscv32i-unknown-none-elf, riscv32imac-unknown-none-elf, or riscv32imac-unknown-xous-elf.

  1. Decide what target you want. For simple, embedded systems this could be riscv32i-unknown-none-elf, and for more complex systems with compressed instructions you could use riscv32imac-unknown-none-elf.
  2. Get Rust. Go to https://rustup.rs/ and follow its instructions.
  3. Install the proper toolchain: rustup target add ${target_arch}
  4. Build the kernel: cargo build --release --target ${target_arch}

Using

To use the kernel, you must package it up into an arguments binary with xous-tools.

Testing

TBD
