Detailed Description

Handle hardware-generated exceptions.

The exception handler traps exceptions generated by hardware. This could be an invalid instruction or invalid memory access exception or it could be a reset exception. In both cases, a handler registered with register_exception_handler will be passed information regarding the exception type and relevant registers.

Data Structure Documentation

◆ reg_block_t

struct reg_block_t

Structure representing a register block.

DO NOT modify the order unless editing inthandler.S

Data Fields
uint64_t	gpr[32]	General purpose registers 1-32.
uint64_t	hi	HI.
uint64_t	lo	LO.
uint32_t	sr	SR.
uint32_t	cr	CR (NOTE: can't modify this from an exception handler)
uint32_t	epc	represents EPC - COP0 register $14 The coprocessor 0 (system control coprocessor - COP0) register $14 is the return from exception program counter. For asynchronous exceptions it points to the place to continue execution whereas for synchronous (caused by code) exceptions, point to the instruction causing the fault condition, which needs correction in the exception handler. This member is for reading/writing its value.
uint32_t	fc31	FC31.
uint64_t	fpr[32]	Floating point registers 1-32.

◆ exception_t

struct exception_t

Structure representing an exception.

Data Fields
int32_t	type	Exception type. See also EXCEPTION_TYPE_RESET, EXCEPTION_TYPE_CRITICAL
exception_code_t	code	Underlying exception code.
const char *	info	String information of exception.
reg_block_t *	regs	Registers at point of exception.
