Crate vm_superio

Emulation for legacy devices.

For now, it offers emulation support only for the Linux serial console, an Arm PL031 Real Time Clock (RTC), and an i8042 PS/2 controller that only handles the CPU reset.

It also provides a Trigger interface for an object that can generate an event.

Re-exports

• pub use i8042::I8042Device;
• pub use rtc_pl031::Rtc;
• pub use rtc_pl031::RtcState;
• pub use serial::Serial;
• pub use serial::SerialState;

Modules

• i8042
  Provides emulation for a super minimal i8042 controller.
• rtc_pl031
  Provides emulation for a minimal ARM PL031 Real Time Clock.
• serial
  Provides emulation for Linux serial console.

Traits

• Trigger
  Abstraction for a simple, push-button like interrupt mechanism. This helps in abstracting away how events/interrupts are generated when working with the emulated devices.
