Please find enclosed a patch which enables me to build the bare-bsp for
sh-rtems.
Changes:
1. Add preinstall to libbsp/bare/include/Makefile.in
2. Removed FORCEIT, add preinstall to
libbsp/sh/gensh1/include/Makefile.in
3. Disabled support of set_vector from sh code (shared/setvec.c is still
present but isn't used anymore), set_vector replaced with standard rtems
functions.
Problems still present:
1. Support of spin-delays in bare bsp
2. Proper support of cpu frequency
To configure I used:
<srcdir>/configure \
--target=sh-rtems \
--prefix=<instdir>/sh-bare \
--enable-bare-cpu-model=sh7032 \
--enable-bare-cpu-cflags='-Wall -m1 -DMHZ=20
-DCPU_CONSOLE_DEVNAME="\"/dev/null\""'
--enable-rtemsbsp=bare \
--disable-networking \
--disable-cxx \
--disable-posix \
--disable-tests
IMO, if there are no objections to this patch, a similar approach should
be applied to all CPUs/BSPs (esp. hppa1.1, mips64orion, ppc403, because
they apply set_vector inside of libcpu).
Remember the test to see if a socket could be read and written at
the same time by two different tasks? I discovered that if both
tasks attempt to close the socket a panic can occur from inside the
BSD code.
Closing the same socket twice from two different threads is
certainly an error, but a panic is not the greatest error reporting
method :-)
The following small change to the socket close routine should reduce
the chances of the panic.
Please find attached a start.s that includes a cli prior to the hlt
instruction. This ensures that external interrupts cannot restart
the system after returning to the startup code. ( According to the hlt
docs, they will! )
Also find a new timer.c. ( I forgot to update the countdowm value
in the timer when I changed the PSCLK frequency in start.s) . This
improves timer accuracy.
The raw_idt_notify messages are no longer infinite, I tested sp11 and
sp05, both which were bad, and I have seen the message print once in
one test. I think it's ok if it prints out once. In fact, I don't
think you can effectively stop it!
Please find attached the two files that have been changed relative to
980921 . The changes here are in the handling of the counter-timer used
as the basis for the rtems executive clock. For the most part, these
are housekeeping changes.
The PSCLK frequency change in start.s... was a part of several
bug-fixes. The fix improves executive clock and timer accuracy.
changes :
start.s -- All timers are disabled by the initialization routine
-- PSCLK ( used by clock and timers ) frequency changed to 1MHz
The clock_initialize routine now assumes that the PSCLK frequency is
exactly 1 MHz.
ckinit.c
Clock_isr -- removed division by 1000. Now use 'static'
variable -- clock_intial_isr_value -- to reset Clock_isrs variable.
clock_initialize -- moved counter timer initialization here. Values
used to configure the timer are totally dependent on
BSP_configuration.microseconds_per_tick ( and the PSCLK assumption).
Initializes clock_initial_isr_value used by th Clock_isr to reset
Clock_isrs.
clock_on -- no longer configures the timer, just enables it.
Since altering the number of sections in the BSP, I decided to give it a
good "once over" . The clock handling is now cleaner.
1. Finally fixes raw interrupts for pc386
2. Makes some minor cleanup in console and startup
3. Makes rtems_termios_dequeue_characters() to return count of
outstanding chars - it allows to simplify console isrs a little
bit.
4. pc386 uart modified to be friendlier to termios parameter changes,
to have minor performance improvement and to take advantage of
of above termios modification.
Here's a patch to make the rtems_showroute routine a little more
useful. For `host' route table entries the link-level address is now
displayed. This is equivalent to the old `show arp table'
information displayed by the KA9Q code.
Here are patches that bring 980911 back to what I think is a correct
version of raw IDT management as well as a correct initialisation
of video console and rtems managed interrupts.
I fixed the problems noted by Victor Vengerov.
1) Fix typo in cfsetispeed().
2) In rtems_termios_open, ensure that args->iop->data1 is set before calling
device-specific open routine.
