# INSTALLATION
|
||||
|
||||
## Cross compile the compile
|
||||
|
||||
### WHY ??
|
||||
Why cross compile the gcc ?
|
||||
|
||||
We must cross compile gcc cause our kernel is developped for i386 cpu but your current cpu is probally not an i386 so we need to create an i386 compiler
|
||||
|
||||
### HOW ?
|
||||
|
||||
[THE DOCUMENTATION](https://wiki.osdev.org/GCC_Cross-Compiler)
|
||||
- install requirement follow [THE DOCUMENTATION](https://wiki.osdev.org/GCC_Cross-Compiler)
|
||||
- Setup the shell
|
||||
``` sh
|
||||
export PREFIX="$HOME/opt/cross"
|
||||
export TARGET=i386-elf
|
||||
export PATH="$PREFIX/bin:$PATH"
|
||||
mkdir $HOME/src
|
||||
cd $HOME/src
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Download [binutils](https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/?C=M;O=D)
|
||||
- Download [gcc](https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/?C=M;O=D)
|
||||
- Download [gdb](https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/?C=M;O=D)
|
||||
- extract archives
|
||||
``` sh
|
||||
tar xf [your binutils archive]
|
||||
tar xf [your gcc archive]
|
||||
tar xf [your gdb archive]
|
||||
```
|
||||
- (protips use -j [nb core])
|
||||
- Compile binutils
|
||||
``` sh
|
||||
cd $HOME/src
|
||||
mkdir build-binutils
|
||||
|
||||
cd build-binutils
|
||||
../binutils-x.y.z/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix="$PREFIX" --with-sysroot --disable-nls --disable-werror
|
||||
make
|
||||
make install
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Compile gdb
|
||||
``` sh
|
||||
cd $HOME/src
|
||||
mkdir build-gdb
|
||||
|
||||
cd build-gdb
|
||||
../gdb.x.y.z/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix="$PREFIX" --disable-werror
|
||||
make all-gdb
|
||||
make install-gdb
|
||||
make
|
||||
make install
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Compile gcc
|
||||
``` sh
|
||||
cd $HOME/src
|
||||
|
||||
# The $PREFIX/bin dir _must_ be in the PATH. We did that above.
|
||||
which -- $TARGET-as || echo $TARGET-as is not in the PATH
|
||||
|
||||
mkdir build-gcc
|
||||
cd build-gcc
|
||||
../gcc-x.y.z/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix="$PREFIX" --disable-nls --enable-languages=c,c++ --without-headers
|
||||
make all-gcc
|
||||
make all-target-libgcc
|
||||
make install-gcc
|
||||
make install-target-libgcc
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Compile and the start the kernel
|
||||
``` sh
|
||||
make run
|
||||
```

## Pagination
|
||||
|
||||
To activate pagination you must put the physic [pd](./memory/page_directory.md) address in the cr3 register and 0x80000000 in the cr0 register. Now the [MMU](./memory/mmu.md) will translate your address

# Memory Management Unit (MMU)
|
||||
The MMU is a chip which translate virtual memory to physical memory. When you try to access to an address (/!\ only when you try to access) the MMU will get the physical address from the [pd](./page_directory.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## How translate an address ?
|
||||
The address will be divid in 3 parts:
|
||||
- Page Directory index (10bit (cause 1024))
|
||||
- Page Table index (10bit (cause 1024 too))
|
||||
- offset (12bit cause page size = 4096)
|
||||
|
||||
### Example
|
||||
|
||||
**address**: 0b000100000011101011111011101101
|
||||
|
||||
| Base | PD index | PT index | offset |
|
||||
|--------|----------|------------|--------------|
|
||||
| Binary | 00010000 | 0011101011 | 111011101101 |
|
||||
| Decimal| 16 | 235 | 3821 |
|
||||
|
||||
So to translate this address the MMU will get the 20 first bit of the value store at the 235th PTE of the 16th PDE and will replace the 20 first bit of the virtually address.

|

## Indexed Size
|
||||
A PD can store 1024 PT, each PT index 1024 * 4096Byte = 4MB of address, so a PD can index 1024 * 4MB = 4GB.

# PAGE TABLE
|
||||
|
||||
A page table (or PT) is an 1024 array of 32bit value(Page Table Entry (or PTE)). The address of the PT is store in the [PD](./page_directory.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Page Table Entry (PTE)
|
||||
The value is a 20 first bits of the [frame](./frame.md) address and the 12 last bit is for the flag.
|
||||
|
||||
### Not used PTE value
|
||||
To say to the [MMU](./mmu.md) the page is currently not attribued to a frame you should put the (PTE index << 12)
|
||||
|
||||
## Indexed Size
|
||||
Cause our kernel use 4096byte page and a PT can store 1024 value, each PT index 1024 * 4096Byte = 4MB of address.
