Generated header file ti_herc/reg_spi.h contains complete registers
and fields set for Ti MibSPI peripheral.
Care has to be taken that only TMS570_SPI1, TMS570_SPI3 and TMS570_SPI5
are of this complete multibuffer type. TMS570_SPI2 and TMS570_SPI4
have substantial part of registers removed but else they are compatible.
The symbol can be used by bsp_start_hook_0 when complete
RAM memory is initialization and overwritten during BSP
self-test. The test overwrites even memory used to store
return address / link register and regular resturn from
bsp_start_hook_0 is not possible then.
Maintain the priority of a thread for each scheduler instance via the
thread queue enqueue, extract, priority actions and surrender
operations. This replaces the primitive priority boosting.
Update #2556.
Add priority nodes which contribute to the overall thread priority.
The actual priority of a thread is now an aggregation of priority nodes.
The thread priority aggregation for the home scheduler instance of a
thread consists of at least one priority node, which is normally the
real priority of the thread. The locking protocols (e.g. priority
ceiling and priority inheritance), rate-monotonic period objects and the
POSIX sporadic server add, change and remove priority nodes.
A thread changes its priority now immediately, e.g. priority changes are
not deferred until the thread releases its last resource.
Replace the _Thread_Change_priority() function with
* _Thread_Priority_perform_actions(),
* _Thread_Priority_add(),
* _Thread_Priority_remove(),
* _Thread_Priority_change(), and
* _Thread_Priority_update().
Update #2412.
Update #2556.
This makes the new Termios devices independent of device major/minor
numbers. It enables BSP independent Termios device drivers which may
reside in the cpukit domain. These drivers require an IMFS and do not
work with the device file system. However, the device file system
should go away in the future.
Introduce Thread_queue_Lock_context to contain the context necessary for
thread queue lock and thread wait lock acquire/release operations to
reduce the Thread_Control size.
Commit 0fd6f25507 relaxed the thread begin
extension execution environment. This broke the stack check which only
partially initialized the stack pattern in its create extension. Move
the part of the begin extension to the create extension.
The BSP support is divided to startup/bspsmp_api.c file where
functions required by SuperCore are defined and BCM2836 hardware
initialization part in startup/bspsmp_init.c.
Separation is done to prevent smpfatal08 test build failure.
Protection by rtems_interrupt_disable() is incompatible with SMP build.
Actual page table entries manipulation function does not need locking
and disabling cache and can be run concurrently even on multiple
CPUs as long as changes do not modify same region. If the function
is called from more threads/CPUs to modify same region with different
mapping options concurrently then there is problem at another level
of virtual address space management and has to be solved by mutex
or other locking at that level.
