Previously, exception stubs had to be declared in assembly language files. Now we have two new APIs to regsiter exception handlers at C toplevel: _EXCEPTION_CONNECT_CODE(handler, vector) _EXCEPTION_CONNECT_NOCODE(handler, vector) For x86 exceptions that do and do not push error codes onto the stack respectively. In addition, it's now no longer necessary to #define around exception registration. We now use .gnu.linkonce magic such that the first _EXCEPTION_CONNECT_*() that the linker finds is used for the specified vector. Applications are free to install their own exception handlers which will take precedence over default handlers such as installed by arch/x86/core/fatal.c Some Makefiles have been adjusted so that the default exception handlers in arch/x86/core/fatal.c are linked last. The code has been tested that the right order of precedence is taken for exceptions overridden in the floating point, gdb debug, or application code. The asm SYS_NANO_CPU_EXC_CONNECT API has been removed; it was ill- conceived as it only worked for exceptions that didn't push error codes. All the asm NANO_CPU_EXC_CONNECT_* APIs are gone as well in favor of the new _EXCEPTION_CONNNECT_*() APIs. CONFIG_EXCEPTION_DEBUG no longer needs to be disabled for test cases that define their own exception handlers.

Title: Static IDT Support
Description:
This test verifies that the static IDT feature operates as expected.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Building and Running Project:
This microkernel project outputs to the console. It can be built and executed
on QEMU as follows:
make qemu
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Troubleshooting:
Problems caused by out-dated project information can be addressed by
issuing one of the following commands then rebuilding the project:
make clean # discard results of previous builds
# but keep existing configuration info
or
make pristine # discard results of previous builds
# and restore pre-defined configuration info
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sample Output:
tc_start() - Test Nanokernel static IDT tests
Testing to see if IDT has address of test stubs()
Testing to see interrupt handler executes properly
Testing to see exception handler executes properly
Testing to see spurious handler executes properly
- Expect to see unhandled interrupt/exception message
***** Unhandled exception/interrupt occurred! *****
Current context ID = 0x00102c44
Faulting instruction address = 0x0010342c
Fatal task error! Aborting task.
PASS - idtTestTask.
