2018-08-26Updated the style of the code in lib/string.c to conform to the rest ofJake Mannens
the project. Added the system call 'sys_panic' as well as the corresponding library function panic() whose prototype is defined in unistd.h. This is to allow userspace programs to deliberately crash the kernel for the purpose of debugging. Added the element 'write' as a function pointer in the tty_struct structure. The purpose of this function pointer is to provide a means for the TTY subsystem to notify the device driver of any newly added data to the write queue. Added the tty_write() function to the TTY subsystem. This function will copy data provided by the user into the specified TTY device's write queue, blocking if the queue's buffer is full. tty_write() will then call the driver's write() function to notify it of new data. Added the rsint_tx() function to the serial driver to handle transmit interrupts by re-supplying the UART's transmit FIFO.
