Well time to put device drivers into the kernel 🔥 🔥 🔥

Also for the sake of sanity this will be written only targetting em64t with 0 arch specific code separation.

Too much boilerplate I CBA to write on a phone.

were you going to try using the terminal app on the pixel? or was that giving issues

[severe blaze]

Ok I forgot header deps.

[severe blaze]

I wanted to and I was almost at the breaking point of Termux pissing me off but then I figured out how to bypass mtools, parted, sgdisk and get thefuck working so I ended up sticking with it (for now).

fair fair

[neat apex]

it should be available on most android 16 device now

though sometimes youll get a java exception

then it wont work

[neat apex]

could use proot-distro

The fact that this doesn't work ruined my day.

u0_a222@localhost ~> cat t.c

struct d {char d;};

int main() {
    int x = __builtin_offsetof(struct d, sizeof(d
                .
    d), d);
}

The second operand of offset of has to be a lone identifier...

Like it makes sense lol.

Still sad.

Logic does not make grief go away.

Man C IS PISSING ME OFF.

oops caps lock.

But I guess its accurate.

I got too acquainted with modern language features and syntax.

Especially syntax.

I was trying to figure out how to make a nice API for port I/O and realized C has no RHS type inferrrence based on the LHS.

Which may some weird but its one of the cool thing my language has, where you can write u8 x = my_template(); and (assuming the signature is T my_template(T)();) the compiler deduces T to be u8.

And I would like that for my port in function.

IG in C++ you can fake this with type conversion operators.

OK I give up on my stupid idea.

But I will explain it anyways, I wanted to make an API which would sort of look like a builder and take a base and offset via a struct.

in(0x3F8).iobase(serial_port, ier)

OK writing code on a phone is much more annoying that I expected it to be.

[chrome narwhal]

lol

[severe blaze]

Well stuff is going very slowly I will not lie but we got a super basic integrated serial driver and a hello world!

I did not wire up interrupts yet, might do that far far later.

That is not even a formatted printer BTW.

ello

[severe blaze]

1642 fide why?

[grand saffron]

should say Hello, did it get cut off?

[severe blaze]

OK.

[strange grove]

Developed on a phone? Are you insane?
