Detailed Description

Handles keystrokes.

This class ensures correct initialization of the keyboard and, above all, its interrupt handling.

◆ plugin()

void Keyboard::plugin ( )

Initialization of the keyboard.

Initialization of the keyboard and activation of the specific interrupt handling: The object will register itself at the Plugbox and configure the IOAPIC to receive the corresponding interrupts.

Note: The keyboard interrupts should be configured as level triggered. According to the standard we would have to check the corresponding entry in ACPI::MADS::Interrupt_Source_Override and use these values. Most likely this would suggest an edge-triggered mode – which would work as well. However, using a level-triggered mode is more forgiving because it resends the interrupt request even if an interrupt was lost (e.g. the required handling, retrieving the buffer entry, was not performed).

Todo:: Implement Method

◆ trigger()

void Keyboard::trigger ( )

overridevirtual

Handling of keyboard interrupts.

Processes interrupts triggered by the keyboard. On each keystroke it outputs the corresponding character on the screen – only valid keys are printed, for the sake of simplicity all in a separate line dedicated to the keyboard. If the key combination Ctrl + Alt + Del is pressed, a reboot is triggered.

Todo:: Implement Method

Implements Gate.
