This crate provides a safe, pure-Rust implementation of the RISC-V Supervisor Binary Interface (SBI) to be used in S-mode software, such as operating system kernels. This crate implements the v2.0-rc5 version of the SBI specification and aims to stay up to date with it as newer versions of the specification are released.
§Important safety note
Since this crate is meant to be used by S-mode software, it is assumed that you are executing the provided functions from within S-mode with a spec compliant SBI implementation running in M-mode (or S-mode in the case of VS-mode), and considers execution from any other operating mode out of the scope of this crate, which may bring with it memory safety concerns in those environments. Consider this an implicit contract when using the crate.
