I've gotta say, organizing the code in terms of EBBs instead of calls makes lot of the features in earlier videos make a lot more sense. I have no idea how they'll be able to handle interrupts or avoid having to deal with interrupts, but I'm sure they have a story for that. Really gotta re-watch the memory video now.
Hand coding assembly for this would be really painful, but we already knew this with the belt. The Mill really seems to have been designed with compilers in mind.
- igodard 13y agoSure was! I write compilers; much better to have the hardware team do the work :-) Mill interrupts are nothing but involuntary function calls, and handlers are perfectly ordinary functions. There are no privileged operations; all security is memory based - an upcoming talk will cover that. ootbcomp.com/mailing-list to get talk announcements.
