@chapter Board Support Packages
|
|
|
|
@section Introduction
|
|
|
|
An RTEMS Board Support Package (BSP) must be designed
|
|
to support a particular processor and target board combination.
|
|
This chapter presents a discussion of XXX specific BSP
|
|
issues. For more information on developing a BSP, refer to the
|
|
chapter titled Board Support Packages in the RTEMS
|
|
Applications User's Guide.
|
|
|
|
@section System Reset
|
|
|
|
An RTEMS based application is initiated or
|
|
re-initiated when the XXX processor is reset. When the
|
|
XXX is reset, the processor performs the following actions:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item The tracing bits of the status register are cleared to
|
|
disable tracing.
|
|
|
|
@item The supervisor interrupt state is entered by setting the
|
|
supervisor (S) bit and clearing the master/interrupt (M) bit of
|
|
the status register.
|
|
|
|
@item The interrupt mask of the status register is set to
|
|
level 7 to effectively disable all maskable interrupts.
|
|
|
|
@item The vector base register (VBR) is set to zero.
|
|
|
|
@item The cache control register (CACR) is set to zero to
|
|
disable and freeze the processor cache.
|
|
|
|
@item The interrupt stack pointer (ISP) is set to the value
|
|
stored at vector 0 (bytes 0-3) of the exception vector table
|
|
(EVT).
|
|
|
|
@item The program counter (PC) is set to the value stored at
|
|
vector 1 (bytes 4-7) of the EVT.
|
|
|
|
@item The processor begins execution at the address stored in
|
|
the PC.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@section Processor Initialization
|
|
|
|
The address of the application's initialization code
|
|
should be stored in the first vector of the EVT which will allow
|
|
the immediate vectoring to the application code. If the
|
|
application requires that the VBR be some value besides zero,
|
|
then it should be set to the required value at this point. All
|
|
tasks share the same XXX's VBR value. Because interrupts
|
|
are enabled automatically by RTEMS as part of the initialize
|
|
executive directive, the VBR MUST be set before this directive
|
|
is invoked to insure correct interrupt vectoring. If processor
|
|
caching is to be utilized, then it should be enabled during the
|
|
reset application initialization code.
|
|
|
|
In addition to the requirements described in the
|
|
Board Support Packages chapter of the Applications User's
|
|
Manual for the reset code which is executed before the call to
|
|
initialize executive, the XXX version has the following
|
|
specific requirements:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item Must leave the S bit of the status register set so that
|
|
the XXX remains in the supervisor state.
|
|
|
|
@item Must set the M bit of the status register to remove the
|
|
XXX from the interrupt state.
|
|
|
|
@item Must set the master stack pointer (MSP) such that a
|
|
minimum stack size of MINIMUM_STACK_SIZE bytes is provided for
|
|
the initialize executive directive.
|
|
|
|
@item Must initialize the XXX's vector table.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
Note that the BSP is not responsible for allocating
|
|
or installing the interrupt stack. RTEMS does this
|
|
automatically as part of initialization. If the BSP does not
|
|
install an interrupt stack and -- for whatever reason -- an
|
|
interrupt occurs before initialize_executive is invoked, then
|
|
the results are unpredictable.
