Why This File Exists

CPU and platform-specific kernel glue: boot entry, traps, syscall entry, interrupts, page tables, context switch, and low-level barriers.

/*
 * About the exception table:
 *
 * - insn is a 32-bit pc-relative offset from the faulting insn.
 * - nextinsn is a 16-bit offset off of the faulting instruction
 *   (not off of the *next* instruction as branches are).
 * - errreg is the register in which to place -EFAULT.
 * - valreg is the final target register for the load sequence
 *   and will be zeroed.
 *
 * Either errreg or valreg may be $31, in which case nothing happens.
 *
 * The exception fixup information "just so happens" to be arranged
 * as in a MEM format instruction.  This lets us emit our three
 * values like so:
 *
 *      lda valreg, nextinsn(errreg)
 *
