2.1 Includes
Notice that the demonstration Makefile includes defines for _GNU_SOURCE
and TX_LINUX_MULTI_CORE. These are necessary to enable GNU/Linux-specific
compatibility for ThreadX using the Linux kernel in multi-core devices,
including the option to control processor affinity. See the GNU documentation
on CPU affinity and Feature Test Macros for more information.
TX_LINUX_MULTI_CORE is necessary to enable code that constrains ThreadX to
one core, to prevent unintended behavior when threads execute simultaneously
across multiple cores. The enabled code configures CPU affinity, requiring
the use of macros such as CPU_SET and functions such as sched_setaffinity.
Access to these macros and functions (and the underlying types for the latter)
are enabled via the definition of _GNU_SOURCE.
When building your own application, the _GNU_SOURCE and TX_LINUX_MULTI_CORE
symbols can be defined by being passed to the compiler (e.g. -D_GNU_SOURCE) or
in the optional user-defined ThreadX user define file tx_user.h. In the latter
case, ensure that the symbol TX_INCLUDE_USER_DEFINE_FILE is defined, to instruct
the tx_port.h header to include tx_user.h.
