Rearranged code to created thread handler routines to initialize,
start, restart, and "close/delete" a thread.
Made internal threads their own object class. This now uses the
thread support routines for starting and initializing a thread.
Insured deleted tasks are freed to the Inactive pool associated with the
correct Information block.
Added an RTEMS API specific data area to the thread control block.
Beginnings of removing the word "rtems" from the core.
Added a table of object information control blocks.
Modified _Thread_Get so it looks up a thread regardless of which
thread management "entity" (manager, internal, etc) actually "owns" it.
(andy@i-cubed.demon.co.uk). This initial submission is known
to work on the IBM 403. It is thought to work on the Motorola
601, 603, and 604 although this remains to be tested.
Another user -- Doug Currie (e@flavors.com) -- is interested in
this work and will be testing it on the 604 using the Metrowerks
C compiler and a different format assembly language.
incorporate variable length object names. Previously the algorithm
scanned an array of 4-byte names for a match. Now it scans the
object table, grabs a pointer to the name, and then compares it
if the object is active and has a name.
+ Added name pointer to Object_Control.
+ Modified Object Open and Close to address name field.
+ Removed name as separate element from Thread and Proxy Control.
+ Added parameter "object class" to calls to Initialize Information
+ Added name pointer to Object_Control.
+ Modified Object Open and Close to address name field.
+ Removed name as separate element from Thread and Proxy Control.
(tbennett@divnc.com) including the following major additions:
+ variable length messages
+ named devices
+ debug monitor
+ association tables/variables
+ c/src/lib/libc/support/generic/malloc.c did not initialize the
sbrk amount
+ _Thread_Handler in c/src/exec/rtems/thread.c left a window
during the begin extension which could result in a context switch
fixed places which did not correctly distinguish between an
CPU_isr and a CPU_isr_entry.
