Library to program x86 (amd64) hardware. Contains x86 specific data structure descriptions, data-tables, as well as convenience function to call assembly instructions typically not exposed in higher level languages.

Currently supports

• I/O registers
• Control registers
• MSR registers
• Segmentation
• Descriptor-tables (GDT, LDT, IDT)
• IA32-e page table layout
• Interrupts
• Task state
• Querying CPUID (uses raw_cpuid library)
• Performance counter information
• Intel SGX: Software Guard Extensions

This library depends on libcore so it can be used in kernel level code.

• performance-counter: Includes the performance counter information. Note this feature can increase compilation time significantly due to large statically generated hash-tables that are included in the source. In case you do not need performance-counter information you can disable it using: cargo build --no-default-features
