30//     Architecture specific exception handler API
31//
32// ALMOS-MKH defines three classes of exceptions:
33//
34// - NON_FATAL : exceptions such as "page fault" or "FPU unusable" are non fatal.
35//   The calling thread resumes execution when the exception has been handled.
36//
37// - USER_ERROR : these exceptions such a "illegal vaddr" or "illegal write access"
38//   are fatal. The calling thread process is killed, after an "error" message on the
39//   kernel terminal.
40//
41// - KERNEL_PANIC : events such as "no memory" or "kernel mistakes" are considered
42//   abnormal events. The calling core goes to sleep, after a "panic" message
43//   on the kernel terminal.
44//
45// For all exceptions, the faulty core context has been saved in a registers
46// array stored in the user thread descriptor (core in user mode), and in the
47// kernel stack (core in kernel mode).
48//
49// Any architecture specific implementation must implement this API.
