This partially reverts commit 1215fd4d94.
In order to support profiling of SMP locks and provide a future
compatible SMP locks API it is necessary to add an SMP lock destroy
function. Since the commit above adds an SMP lock to each chain control
we would have to add a rtems_chain_destroy() function as well. This
complicates the chain usage dramatically. Thus revert the patch above.
A global SMP lock for all chains is used to implement the protected
chain operations.
Advantages:
* The SAPI chain API is now identical on SMP and non-SMP
configurations.
* The size of the chain control is reduced and is then equal to the
Score chains.
* The protected chain operations work correctly on SMP.
Disadvantage:
* Applications using many different chains and the protected operations
may notice lock contention.
The chain control size drop is a huge benefit (SAPI chain controls are
66% larger than the Score chain controls). The only disadvantage is not
really a problem since these applications can use specific interrupt
locks and unprotected chain operations to avoid this issue.
Merge RTEMS_FATAL_SOURCE_BSP_GENERIC and RTEMS_FATAL_SOURCE_BSP_SPECIFIC
into new fatal source RTEMS_FATAL_SOURCE_BSP. This makes it easier to
figure out the code position given a fatal source and code.
Instead of SPRG0 (= special purpose register 272) use the new global
symbol _PPC_INTERRUPT_DISABLE_MASK to store the interrupt disable mask.
The benefit is that it is now possible to disable interrupts without
further run-time initialization in boot_card().
At least on Freescale e500 cores this leads also to a faster execution
since the mfmsr and mfspr instruction require four cycles to complete.
The instructions to load the mask value can execute while the mfmsr is
in progress.
According with comment in
rtems_cache_invalidate_multiple_instruction_lines(), final_address
indicates the last address which needs to be invalidated. But if in
while loop we got final_address == i_addr condition then loop breaks and
final_address will not be invalidated.
The new ARM_CP15_CTRL_XP is necessary to share ARMv6 and ARMv7
page-table formats and definitions.
It enables the extended page tables (introduced in ARMv6)
to be configured for the hardware page translation mechanism. This way
we can share ARMv6 and ARMv7 page tables entry formats.
Other Fault Status Register Definitions can be useful for debugging or
excpetion handlers.
Add ISR lock to chain control for proper SMP protection. Replace
rtems_chain_extract() with rtems_chain_explicit_extract() and
rtems_chain_insert() with rtems_chain_explicit_insert() on SMP
configurations. Use rtems_chain_explicit_extract() and
rtems_chain_explicit_insert() to provide SMP support.
Use a per-CPU thread dispatch disable level. So instead of one global
thread dispatch disable level we have now one instance per processor.
This is a major performance improvement for SMP. On non-SMP
configurations this may simplifiy the interrupt entry/exit code.
The giant lock is still present, but it is now decoupled from the thread
dispatching in _Thread_Dispatch(), _Thread_Handler(),
_Thread_Restart_self() and the interrupt entry/exit. Access to the
giant lock is now available via _Giant_Acquire() and _Giant_Release().
The giant lock is still implicitly acquired via
_Thread_Dispatch_decrement_disable_level().
The giant lock is only acquired for high-level operations in interrupt
handlers (e.g. release of a semaphore, sending of an event).
As a side-effect this change fixes the lost thread dispatch necessary
indication bug in _Thread_Dispatch().
A per-CPU thread dispatch disable level greatly simplifies the SMP
support for the interrupt entry/exit code since no spin locks have to be
acquired in this area. It is only necessary to get the current
processor index and use this to calculate the address of the own per-CPU
control. This reduces the interrupt latency considerably.
All elements for the interrupt entry/exit code are now part of the
Per_CPU_Control structure: thread dispatch disable level, ISR nest level
and thread dispatch necessary. Nothing else is required (except CPU
port specific stuff like on SPARC).
The original version is missing void and result is that (*x >> 16) is
optimized to ldh rX,[rY]. But it is not allowed/supported to access
bus/address range used by AITC by other than 32 bit wide accesses
and 16-bit access results in the data abort exception.
The corrected version works on real hardware and is even
more readable.

This field is unused except for special case simulator clock drivers.
In these places use an alternative. Add and use
_Thread_Set_global_exit_status() and _Thread_Get_global_exit_status().
