Crate os

The main module and entrypoint

Various facilities of the kernels are implemented as submodules. The most important ones are:

• trap: Handles all cases of switching from userspace to the kernel
• syscall: System call handling and implementation

The operating system also starts in this module. Kernel code starts executing from entry.asm, after which rust_main() is called to initialize various pieces of functionality. (See its source code for details.)

We then call batch::run_next_app() and for the first time go to userspace.
