Do not use the rtems_error() function since this function pulls in
exit() and abort(). The abort() function pulls in raise() which pulls
in the whole POSIX signals support. This change saves about 16KiB of
text/rodata on ARM Thumb-2 systems.
Add rtems_scheduler_get_processor_maximum() as a replacement for
rtems_get_processor_count(). The rtems_get_processor_count() is a bit
orphaned. Adopt it by the Scheduler Manager. The count is also
misleading, since the processor set may have gaps and the actual count
of online processors may be less than the value returned by
rtems_get_processor_count().
Update #3732.
Add rtems_scheduler_get_processor() as a replacement for
rtems_get_current_processor(). The rtems_get_current_processor() is a
bit orphaned. Adopt it by the Scheduler Manager. This is in line with
the glibc sched_getcpu() function.
Deprecate rtems_get_current_processor().
Update #3731.
One reason to move the test support into a dedicated library are the
standard output __wrap_*() functions. They may conflict with
application level wrappers.
Update #3199.
The RTEMS_USE_16_BIT_OBJECT define is not set by an RTEMS port. Remove
support for 16-bit object identifiers. If someone really wants to use
RTEMS on a 16-bit target, then it is better to use self-contained
objects instead of playing around with object identifier optimizations.
Update #3603.
Rename
* _Configuration_Interrupt_stack_area_begin in _ISR_Stack_area_begin,
* _Configuration_Interrupt_stack_area_end in _ISR_Stack_area_end, and
* _Configuration_Interrupt_stack_size in _ISR_Stack_size.
Move definitions to <rtems/score/isr.h>. The new names are considerable
shorter and in the right namespace.
Update #3459.
Prepare the interrupt stack which may be used by the boot processor as
initialization stack with the stack sanity pattern. Check the interrupt
stack of the current processor in the thread begin and switch extension.
Update #3459.
LLVM warns about this:
cpukit/libmisc/capture/capture.c:405:30: warning:
taking address of packed member 'time' of class or structure
'rtems_capture_record' may result in an unaligned pointer value
[-Waddress-of-packed-member]
rtems_capture_get_time (&in.time);
And on sparc it generates an unaligned trap which makes smpcapture01
and smpcapture02 test to fail on sparc.
Introduce a new internal define _CONFIGURE_MAXIMUM_PROCESSORS and ensure
that it is _CONFIGURE_MAXIMUM_PROCESSORS > 1 only in SMP configurations.
This avoids to allocate data structures for non-existing additional
processors in uniprocessor configuration.
Update #3459.
Statically initialize the interrupt stack area
(_Configuration_Interrupt_stack_area_begin,
_Configuration_Interrupt_stack_area_end, and
_Configuration_Interrupt_stack_size) via <rtems/confdefs.h>. Place the
interrupt stack area in a special section ".rtemsstack.interrupt". Let
BSPs define the optimal placement of this section in their linker
command files (e.g. in a fast on-chip memory).
This change makes makes the CPU_HAS_SOFTWARE_INTERRUPT_STACK and
CPU_HAS_HARDWARE_INTERRUPT_STACK CPU port defines superfluous, since the
low level initialization code has all information available via global
symbols.
This change makes the CPU_ALLOCATE_INTERRUPT_STACK CPU port define
superfluous, since the interrupt stacks are allocated by confdefs.h for
all architectures. There is no need for BSP-specific linker command
file magic (except the section placement), see previous ARM linker
command file as a bad example.
Remove _CPU_Install_interrupt_stack(). Initialize the hardware
interrupt stack in _CPU_Initialize() if necessary (e.g.
m68k_install_interrupt_stack()).
The optional _CPU_Interrupt_stack_setup() is still useful to customize
the registration of the interrupt stack area in the per-CPU information.
The initialization stack can reuse the interrupt stack, since
* interrupts are disabled during the sequential system initialization,
and
* the boot_card() function does not return.
This stack resuse saves memory.
Changes per architecture:
arm:
* Mostly replace the linker symbol based configuration of stacks with
the standard <rtems/confdefs.h> configuration via
CONFIGURE_INTERRUPT_STACK_SIZE. The size of the FIQ, ABT and UND
mode stack is still defined via linker symbols. These modes are
rarely used in applications and the default values provided by the
BSP should be sufficient in most cases.
* Remove the bsp_processor_count linker symbol hack used for the SMP
support. This is possible since the interrupt stack area is now
allocated by the linker and not allocated from the heap. This makes
some configure.ac stuff obsolete. Remove the now superfluous BSP
variants altcycv_devkit_smp and realview_pbx_a9_qemu_smp.
bfin:
* Remove unused magic linker command file allocation of initialization
stack. Maybe a previous linker command file copy and paste problem?
In the start.S the initialization stack is set to a hard coded value.
lm32, m32c, mips, nios2, riscv, sh, v850:
* Remove magic linker command file allocation of initialization stack.
Reuse interrupt stack for initialization stack.
m68k:
* Remove magic linker command file allocation of initialization stack.
Reuse interrupt stack for initialization stack.
powerpc:
* Remove magic linker command file allocation of initialization stack.
Reuse interrupt stack for initialization stack.
* Used dedicated memory region (REGION_RTEMSSTACK) for the interrupt
stack on BSPs using the shared linkcmds.base (replacement for
REGION_RWEXTRA).
sparc:
* Remove the hard coded initialization stack. Use the interrupt stack
for the initialization stack on the boot processor. This saves
16KiB of RAM.
Update #3459.
Check the interrupt stacks of all processors. Set up the interrupt
stack of the current processor for high water testing in the thread
begin extension. This must be done after multi-threading started, since
the initialization stacks may reuse the interrupt stacks. Disable
thread dispatching in SMP configurations to prevent thread migration.
Writing to the interrupt stack is only safe if done from the
corresponding processor in thread context.
Update #3459.
A speciality of the RTEMS build system was the make preinstall step. It
copied header files from arbitrary locations into the build tree. The
header files were included via the -Bsome/build/tree/path GCC command
line option.
This has at least seven problems:
* The make preinstall step itself needs time and disk space.
* Errors in header files show up in the build tree copy. This makes it
hard for editors to open the right file to fix the error.
* There is no clear relationship between source and build tree header
files. This makes an audit of the build process difficult.
* The visibility of all header files in the build tree makes it
difficult to enforce API barriers. For example it is discouraged to
use BSP-specifics in the cpukit.
* An introduction of a new build system is difficult.
* Include paths specified by the -B option are system headers. This
may suppress warnings.
* The parallel build had sporadic failures on some hosts.
This patch removes the make preinstall step. All installed header
files are moved to dedicated include directories in the source tree.
Let @RTEMS_CPU@ be the target architecture, e.g. arm, powerpc, sparc,
etc. Let @RTEMS_BSP_FAMILIY@ be a BSP family base directory, e.g.
erc32, imx, qoriq, etc.
The new cpukit include directories are:
* cpukit/include
* cpukit/score/cpu/@RTEMS_CPU@/include
* cpukit/libnetworking
The new BSP include directories are:
* bsps/include
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/include
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/@RTEMS_BSP_FAMILIY@/include
There are build tree include directories for generated files.
The include directory order favours the most general header file, e.g.
it is not possible to override general header files via the include path
order.
The "bootstrap -p" option was removed. The new "bootstrap -H" option
should be used to regenerate the "headers.am" files.
Update #3254.
