Remove the THREAD_WAIT_STATE_READY_AGAIN and simply use the initial value to
indicate that a thread does not wait on something. Rename
THREAD_WAIT_FLAGS_INITIAL to THREAD_WAIT_STATE_READY. This change is necessary
so that _Thread_Continue() can be called for threads which never waited on
something (for example dormant threads).
Update #4546.
This patch set replaces the CPU budget algorithm enumeration with a set of CPU
budget operations which implement a particular CPU budget algorithm. This
helps to hide the CPU budget algorithm implementation details from the general
thread handling. The CPU budget callouts are turned into CPU budget
operations. This slightly reduces the size of the thread control block.
All schedulers used the default scheduler tick implementation. The tick
scheduler operation is removed and the CPU budget operations are directly used
in _Watchdog_Tick() if the executing thread uses a CPU budget algorithm. This
is performance improvement for all threads which do not use a CPU budget
algorithm (default behaviour).
Do not adjust the stack area begin address since this may confuse the
stack allocator and result in failed stack frees.
Account for the alignment overhead in the stack space size estimate.
Check that the stack size is in the expected interval.
Make sure that a user-provided stack size is the minimum size allocated
for the stack.
Make sure we meet the stack alignment requirement also for CPU ports
with CPU_STACK_ALIGNMENT > CPU_HEAP_ALIGNMENT.
Close the thread object if a thread create extension fails. Also call
the delete extension to avoid resource leaks in early extensions if a
late extension fails.
Close#4270.
If the non-preempt mode for threads is supported depends on the
scheduler implementation. Add
_Scheduler_Is_non_preempt_mode_supported() to indicate this.
Update #3876.
Allocate new thread queue heads during objects information extend. This
removes an error case and the last dependency on the workspace in
_Thread_Initialize().
Update #3835.
Add the Thread_Configuration structure to reduce the parameter count of
_Thread_Initialize(). This makes it easier to add more parameters in
the future. It simplifies the code generation since most architectures
do not have that many registers available for function parameters.
Update #3835.
Use the stack area to allocate the FP context. This considerably
simplifies the application configuration since the task count no longer
influences the configured work space size. With this change the stack
space size is overestimated since an FP context for each thread is
accounted. Memory constraint applications can use the stack size for
fine tuning.
Update #3835.
Statically allocate the objects information together with the initial
set of objects either via <rtems/confdefs.h>. Provide default object
informations with zero objects via librtemscpu.a. This greatly
simplifies the workspace size estimate. RTEMS applications which do not
use the unlimited objects option are easier to debug since all objects
reside now in statically allocated objects of the right types.
Close#3621.
Rename Objects_Information::size to Objects_Information::object_size.
Change its type from size_t to uint16_t and move it to reduce the size
of Objects_Information.
Update #3621.
Add support to temporarily pin a thread to its current processor. This
may be used to access per-processor data structures in critical sections
with enabled thread dispatching, e.g. a pinned thread is allowed to
block.
Update #3508.
Add the special thread queue name _Thread_queue_Object_name to mark
thread queues embedded in an object with identifier. Using the special
thread state STATES_THREAD_QUEUE_WITH_IDENTIFIER is not reliable for
this purpose since the thread wait information and thread state are
protected by different SMP locks in separate critical sections. Remove
STATES_THREAD_QUEUE_WITH_IDENTIFIER.
Add and use _Thread_queue_Object_initialize().
Update #2858.
Since the FP area pointer is passed by reference in
_CPU_Context_Initialize_fp() the optional FP area adjustment via
_CPU_Context_Fp_start() is superfluous. It is also wrong with respect
to memory management, e.g. pointer passed to _Workspace_Free() may be
not the one returned by _Workspace_Allocate().
Close#1400.
