Need help with multiple C files

[moondeck]

Hi, i am new here, i am moondeck and i am doing my OS (i guess you could call it that...)
Since i have written some amount of code, it started to get too messy to write in one file, so i decided to make a new directory for kernel IO code, but now the compiler wont compile it, and i have no idea why. Can someone please help me?

kernel.c

Code: Select all

#include "kernelio/kernelio.h"

void kernel_main(){
	clearscreen();
	kout("moonKERNEL v0.01");
	return;

char kout_colorvar = 0x04;

void kout(char *kouttext){
	char *videoMem = (char*)0xb8000;
	while (*kouttext != 0) {
		videoMem[col] = *kouttext++;
		videoMem[col+1] = kout_colorvar;
		col = col + 2;
	}
	col = 80*2;
}

void kout_color(char kout_color){
	kout_colorvar = kout_color;
}

void clearscreen(){
	volatile char *videoMem = (volatile char*)0xb8000;
	for (volatile int counterforclean = 0; counterforclean < (80*25*2); counterforclean++) {
		*videoMem++ = 0x00;
	}
	col = 0;
	lin = 0;
}

void outb(u16int port, u8int value){
		asm("outb %1, %0" : : "dN" (port), "a" (value));

Sorry if the code is bad :/

[Techel]

So the compiler says "no, I don't feel like to compile"?

Sorry, forgot about that Edited now.

[iansjack]

No error messages? That's unusual.

Looks like you're not using a cross-compiler. Your linker tries to link your 32-bit code with a 64-bit libgcc.

No, why should i? I dont really get it.

http://wiki.osdev.org/GCC_Cross-Compiler
Your GCC is built for AMD64 and GNU/Linux, it's not recommended to assume, that it won't include target-specific stuff. Read more in the link above.

And it worked before i moved some functions to a separate file, but i will try to set up a cross compiler

Thanks for helping, i will try to make a toolchain. Can anyone explain me if i really need a GDT? It says that most c compilers assume flat memory, so why would i need it anyway? Is there something i dont understand?

[iansjack]

You need a GDT. Segment registers in protected and long modes are indexes into this table. So even with a flat memory model you need the descriptors.

The Intel Programmer's Manual gives a very full description of all this; it is essential reading.

The thing with 3000something pages? Well, i will take a look. Thanks for helping.

EDIT: I have compiled the cross-compiler, but i get this error after "making":

Do i need some libraries or what?

[Roman]

Remove "-m32", add "-ffreestanding".

i686-elf-gcc -m32 -o kernel_main.o kernel.o kernelio.o

Are you sure this is correct? This line tells the compiler to link kernel.o and kernelio.o, then output an executable to kernel_main.o

Isnt it supposed to? Kernelio.h is a file included in kernel.c

The thing with 3000 something pages?

The size of the manual should give you some inkling of its importance (though you don't need to read all 3000 at once). It's a complicated processor and you can't just guess at how it works. A good reference is essential, and this is the best one there is (apart, possibly, from the AMD equivalent). Just be thankful that it is free; in days gone by you had to pay hundreds of dollars for this sort of information.

I am not saying that i am not thankful I am just used to microcontroller datasheets, like 600 sheets
