Add rtems_interrupt_local_disable|enable() as suggested by Pavel Pisa to
emphasize that interrupts are only disabled on the current processor.
Do not define the rtems_interrupt_disable|enable|flash() macros and
functions on SMP configurations since they don't ensure system wide
mutual exclusion.
Aggregate several critical sections into a bigger one. Sending and
receiving messages is now protected by an ISR lock. Thread dispatching
is only disabled in case a blocking operation is necessary. The message
copy procedure is done inside the critical section (interrupts
disabled). Thus this change may have a negative impact on the interrupt
latency in case very large messages are transferred.
Update #2273.
* fix and remove some macros in rtems.texi.in.
* refer to devel mailing list.
* remove reference to Debian packaging in requirements section.
* remove section on prebuilt tools.
* replace toolset build instructions with link to RSB docs.
* Add a note in building RTEMS section about using RSB.
* Fix URLs
Closes#2291.
Deprecate Classic API Notepads. Mark task_set/get_note() with
the deprecated attribute, and also mark the notepads field.
Replace disable with enable option for notepads in confdefs.h,
and make notepads disabled by default. The previous option
CONFIGURE_DISABLE_CLASSIC_API_NOTEPADS is now unused and
will emit a compile-time warning. A new option
CONFIGURE_ENABLE_CLASSIC_API_NOTEPADS is available to turn
on notepads, but it also will emit a compile-time warning
to indicate that notepads are deprecated.
Closes#2265
pthread_mutex_trylock() should return EBUSY if the mutex is already
locked. The translations of CORE_MUTEX_STATUS_NESTING_NOT_ALLOWED is
EDEADLK which is correct for pthread_mutex_lock(). This fixes the
translation for trylock.
Closes#2170.
Remove miniIMFS. Statically initialize the root IMFS.
Add configuration options to disable individual
features of the root IMFS, e.g.
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_CHOWN,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_FCHMOD,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_LINK,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_MKNOD,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_MOUNT,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_READLINK,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_RENAME,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_RMNOD,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_SYMLINK,
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_UNMOUNT, and
o CONFIGURE_IMFS_DISABLE_UTIME.
* Coding style cleanups.
* Use OS reserved trap 0x89 for IRQ Disable
* Use OS reserved trap 0x8A for IRQ Enable
* Add to SPARC CPU supplement documentation
This will result in faster Disable/Enable code since the
system trap handler does not need to decode which function
the user wants. Besides the IRQ disable/enabled can now
be inline which avoids the caller to take into account that
o0-o7+g1-g4 registers are destroyed by trap handler.
It was also possible to reduce the interrupt trap handler by
five instructions due to this.
Move interrupt lock to device context and expose only this structure to
the read, write and set attributes device handler. This makes these
device handler independent of the general Termios infrastructure
suitable for direct use in printk() support.
