# Star Elf (Stellar's Awesome Reader [for] ELF)

## Overview

This project allows you to load and execute ELF files within a Cosmos-based C# operating system. It provides a small library with utility functions to interact with the operating system through direct function calls, including handling console input/output and memory management. (More functions will be added in the future.)

### Example Usage in C

```c
#include "Cosmos.h"

void example_IDT_GATE(void) {
    printf("Interrupt Called!\n");
}

NO_NAME_MANGLE void main(void*** funcTable) {
    debug_serial_init();
    Cosmos_RegisterFunctionTable(funcTable);

clrscr();

get_current_idt();
    idt_ptr_t idt = get_idt();
    set_idt_gate(0x80, (int)example_IDT_GATE, 0x08, 0x8E);
    set_idt(idt);

printf("IDT: 0x%p\n", &idt);

asm volatile("int $0x80");

return;
}
```

### Key Features

- **IDT Management**: Functions to set and retrieve the IDT (Interrupt Descriptor Table).
- **Console Operations**: Includes functions for writing and reading text (UTF-16/ASCII) and clearing the console screen.
- **Memory Management**: Functions to allocate, free, and manipulate memory (malloc, calloc, realloc).
- **Basic I/O Functions**: Support for printing integers, floats, and other data types to the console.
- **ELF File Loading**: Enables loading ELF files into memory and executing them in a Cosmos OS environment.

### Functions Provided

- **IDT Functions**:
  - `set_idt_gate()`, `get_idt()`, `set_idt()`
- **Console Functions**:
  - `Console_WriteLine16()`, `Console_Write16()`, `Console_ReadLine16()`
  - `Console_WriteLineA()`, `Console_WriteA()`, `Console_ReadLineA()`, etc...
- **Memory Management**:
  - `Heap_Alloc()`, `Heap_Free()`
- **ELF Loader**: Load and execute ELF files within the Cosmos OS environment.
  
### Getting Started

1. Download the project files.
2. Open the `CosmosExec` DIR to find the C files.
<br/> 2.1 You can compile these with `make`. Run `make build` to compile the project. (Auto copied)
3. Open the `RawExecution` DIR to find the C# files and kernel.
4. Play/Build as normal in Visual Studio.
5. That's it! You can now run the kernel and load ELF files.

### C# Integration

```c#
using Cosmos.Core;
using Cosmos.Core.Memory;
using Cosmos.HAL;
using Stellib.Drivers.Injection;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Sys = Cosmos.System;
using Stellib.ELF;
using IL2CPU.API.Attribs;
using XSharp.Assembler;
using Cosmos.Core_Asm;
namespace RawExecution
{
    public unsafe class Kernel : Sys.Kernel
    {
        [ManifestResourceStream(ResourceName = "RawExecution.Drivers.ELF.TestElf")]
        public static byte[] TestElf;
        protected override void BeforeRun()
        {
            byte[] nElf = new byte[TestElf.Length];
            for (int i = 0; i < TestElf.Length; i++)
            {
                nElf[i] = TestElf[i];
            }
            Elf32 elf = new Elf32(nElf);
            elf.PrintElfInfo();
            elf.LoadElf();
            Console.WriteLine("COSMOS: Control Regained."); 
        }

protected override void Run()
        {
        }
    }
}
```

### Current Rewrite of STDLIB

```c++
void* malloc(size_t size);
void free(void* ptr);
void* calloc(size_t num, size_t size);
void* realloc(void* ptr, size_t size);
int isspace(int c);
void itoa(int num, char* str, int base);
void ltoa(long num, char* str, int base);
void utoa(unsigned int num, char* str, int base);
void ultoa(unsigned long num, char* str, int base);
void uitoa(unsigned int num, char* str, int base);
void atoi(int num, char* str, int base);
void printf(const char* format, ...);
int sprintf(char* str, const char* format, ...);
int snprintf(char* str, size_t size, const char* format, ...);
void vsnprintf(char *str, size_t size, const char *format, va_list args);
void vsprintf(char* str, const char* format, va_list ap);
void clrscr(void);
void gets(char* str, size_t size);
int scanf(const char *fmt, ...);
int sscanf(const char* str, const char* format, ...);
FILE* fopen(const char* filename, const char* mode);
int fclose(FILE* file);
int fread(void* buffer, unsigned int size, unsigned int nmemb, FILE* stream);
int fwrite(void* buffer, unsigned int size, unsigned int nmemb, FILE* stream);
int fseek(FILE* stream, int offset, int whence);
int ftell(FILE* stream);
int fflush(FILE* stream);
```
