Many tm27.h implementations were one line with no attribution.
Some were simply including a default non-functional implementation.
Others were including a header file giving an implementation based
on a standard counter/timer. This patch gives attribution based on
the split out being done by Sebastian Huber in 2017.
Pass the parameter of the clock interrupt handler to
Clock_driver_support_at_tick() and Clock_driver_timecounter_tick(). This makes
it possible to use the interrupt handler argument in clock drivers.
Use the interrupt handler provided by Clock_driver_support_install_isr() to
avoid local delarations of Clock_isr().
Update #4862.
Sort the .noinit* input sections by name first, then by alignment if two
sections have the same name. This allows the placement of begin/end symbols to
initialize some areas with a special value.
Update #4678.
- Use CamelCase as it is not used in our C code. Enables simple search and
replace.
- Prefix with "RTEMS" to aid deployment and integration. It aids
searching and sorting.
Update #3706.
In order to simplify the use of CPU counter values it is beneficial to
have monotonic increasing values within the range of the CPU counter
ticks data type, e.g. 32-bit unsigned integer. This eases the use of
CPU counter timestamps in external tools which do not know the details
of the CPU counter hardware. The CPU counter is the fastest way to get
a time on an RTEMS system.
Such a CPU counter may be also used as the timecounter. Use it on SPARC
for this purpose to simplify the clock drivers.
Update #3456.
The aim of this clock driver hook was to stop clock tick interrupts at
some late point in the exit() procedure.
The use of atexit() pulls in malloc() which pulls in errno. It is
incompatible with the intention of the
CONFIGURE_DISABLE_NEWLIB_REENTRANCY configuration option.
The exit() function must be called from thread context, so accompanied
clock tick interrupts should cause no harm. On the contrary, someone
may assume a normal operating system operation, e.g. working timeouts.
Remove the Clock_driver_support_shutdown_hardware() clock driver hook.
Close#3436.
Adjust various build files. Remove automatic generation of the
c/src/lib/libbsp/*/acinclude.m4 files from bootstrap script.
This patch is a part of the BSP source reorganization.
Update #3285.
The previous cache manager support used a single souce file
(cache_manager.c) which included an implementation header (cache_.h).
This required the use of specialized include paths to find the right
header file. Change this to include a generic implementation header
(cacheimpl.h) in specialized source files.
Use the following directories and files:
* bsps/shared/cache
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/shared/cache
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/@RTEMS_BSP_FAMILY/start/cache.c
Update #3285.
A speciality of the RTEMS build system was the make preinstall step. It
copied header files from arbitrary locations into the build tree. The
header files were included via the -Bsome/build/tree/path GCC command
line option.
This has at least seven problems:
* The make preinstall step itself needs time and disk space.
* Errors in header files show up in the build tree copy. This makes it
hard for editors to open the right file to fix the error.
* There is no clear relationship between source and build tree header
files. This makes an audit of the build process difficult.
* The visibility of all header files in the build tree makes it
difficult to enforce API barriers. For example it is discouraged to
use BSP-specifics in the cpukit.
* An introduction of a new build system is difficult.
* Include paths specified by the -B option are system headers. This
may suppress warnings.
* The parallel build had sporadic failures on some hosts.
This patch removes the make preinstall step. All installed header
files are moved to dedicated include directories in the source tree.
Let @RTEMS_CPU@ be the target architecture, e.g. arm, powerpc, sparc,
etc. Let @RTEMS_BSP_FAMILIY@ be a BSP family base directory, e.g.
erc32, imx, qoriq, etc.
The new cpukit include directories are:
* cpukit/include
* cpukit/score/cpu/@RTEMS_CPU@/include
* cpukit/libnetworking
The new BSP include directories are:
* bsps/include
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/include
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/@RTEMS_BSP_FAMILIY@/include
There are build tree include directories for generated files.
The include directory order favours the most general header file, e.g.
it is not possible to override general header files via the include path
order.
The "bootstrap -p" option was removed. The new "bootstrap -H" option
should be used to regenerate the "headers.am" files.
Update #3254.
