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