In contrast to message queues created by rtems_message_queue_create(), the
message queues constructed by this directive use a user-provided message buffer
storage area.
Add RTEMS_MESSAGE_QUEUE_BUFFER() to define a message buffer type for message
buffer storage areas.
Update #4007.
This option silences warning with automake-1.16.1 allowing us to
upgrade to that version.
This change has been tested with automake-1.12.6 and automake-1.16.1.
It seems version 1.16.1 configures slower than 1.12.6 for the same
source and BSP. The newer versions is 6 second slower.
Close#3387.
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.
- Remove the printf support leaving the direct printk support configured
with TESTS_USE_PRINTK and all other output goes via a buffered vsniprintf
call to printk.
- Control the test's single init for functions and global data with
TEST_INIT and not CONFIGURE_INIT. They are now separate.
Updates #3170.
- Add a top level test configuration file for test states that are common
to all BSPs. This saves adding a test configuration (tcfg) file for
every BSP.
- Add the test states 'user-input' and 'benchmark'. This
lets 'rtems-test' stop the test rather than waiting for a timeout or
letting a benchmark run without the user asking for it to run.
- Implement rtems-test-check in Python to make it faster. The shell script
had grown to a point it was noticably slowing the build down.
- Fix the configure.ac and Makefile.am files for a number of the
test directories. The files are difficiult to keep in sync with the
number of tests and mistakes can happen such as tests being left
out of the build. The test fsrofs01 is an example. Also a there was
a mix of SUBDIRS and _SUBDIRS being used and only _SUBDIRS should be
used.
- Fix the test fsrofs01 so it compiles.
Closes#2963.
Notepads where a feature of RTEMS' tasks that simply functioned in
the same way as POSIX keys or threaded local storage (TLS). They were
introduced well before per task variables, which are also deprecated,
and were barely used in favor of their POSIX alternatives.
In addition to their scarce usage, Notepads took up unnecessary memory.
For each task:
- 16 32-bit integers were allocated.
- A total of 64 bytes per task per thread.
This is especially critical in low memory and safety-critical applications.
They are also defined as uint32_t, and therefore are not guaranteed to
hold a pointer.
Lastly, they are not portable solutions for SMP and uniprocessor systems,
like POSIX keys and TLS.
updates #2493.
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
Provide a file per BSP to list tests that do not build for a BSP. This change
removes the BSP_SMALL_MEMORY hack from the code. That hack was a
mistake.
Provide configuration files for each BSP with tests that cannot build.
This commit deletes all RTEMS ChangeLog files. These files have been abandoned
since converting to git version control. The historical data may be recovered
by checking out any commit before this one. Most of the contents of these
ChangeLog files can also be found in the git log.
Two external ChangeLog files, ChangeLog.slac and ChangeLog.zlib, remain.
Script does what is expected and tries to do it as
smartly as possible.
+ remove occurrences of two blank comment lines
next to each other after Id string line removed.
+ remove entire comment blocks which only exited to
contain CVS Ids
+ If the processing left a blank line at the top of
a file, it was removed.
