Everything is now ready to test our hardware interrupts.

|
Timer
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
The timer is easy to configure. First we'll declare an `init_timer()` on `cpu/timer.h` and
|
|
implement it on `cpu/timer.c`. It is just a matter of computing the clock frequency and
|
|
sending the bytes to the appropriate ports.
|
|
|
|
We will now fix `kernel/utils.c int_to_ascii()` to print the numbers in the correct order.
|
|
For that, we need to implement `reverse()` and `strlen()`.
|
|
|
|
Finally, go back to the `kernel/kernel.c` and do two things. Enable interrupts again
|
|
(very important!) and then initialize the timer interrupt.
|
|
|
|
Go `make run` and you'll see the clock ticking!
