# Tutorial 02 - Runtime Init
## tl;dr
- We extend `boot.s` to call into Rust code for the first time. Before the jump
to Rust happens, a bit of runtime init work is done.
- The Rust code being called just halts execution with a call to `panic!()`.
- Check out `make qemu` again to see the additional code run.
## Notable additions
- More additions to the linker script:
- New sections: `.rodata`, `.got`, `.data`, `.bss`.
- A dedicated place for linking boot-time arguments that need to be read by `_start()`.
- `_start()` in `_arch/__arch_name__/cpu/boot.s`:
1. Halts core if core != core0.
1. Initializes the `DRAM` by zeroing the [bss] section.
1. Sets up the `stack pointer`.
1. Jumps to the `_start_rust()` function, defined in `arch/__arch_name__/cpu/boot.rs`.
- `_start_rust()`:
- Calls `kernel_init()`, which calls `panic!()`, which eventually halts core0 as well.
- The library now uses the [cortex-a] crate, which provides zero-overhead abstractions and wraps
`unsafe` parts when dealing with the CPU's resources.
- See it in action in `_arch/__arch_name__/cpu.rs`.
