The <tt>i386/stand</tt> directory holds functions that are useful, but cannot
|
|
be called from the kernel. For example printf() is great, but if the kernel
|
|
called printf() it would generate a TRAP and wind up back in the kernel.<p>

|
The functions here emulate these functions by dealing directly with the
|
|
hardware on the system.<p>
