Waiting for mbufs at this level is a bad solution. It would be better
to try to allocate a new mbuf chain before we hand over the current mbuf
chain to the upper layer. In case the allocation fails we should drop
the current packet and use its mbuf chain for a new packet.
Move interrupt lock to device context and expose only this structure to
the read, write and set attributes device handler. This makes these
device handler independent of the general Termios infrastructure
suitable for direct use in printk() support.
The Fatal_halt handler now have two options, either halt
as before or enter system error state to return to
debugger or simulator. The exit-code is now also
propagated to the debugger which is very useful for
testing.
The CPU_Fatal_halt handler was split up into two, since
the only the LEON3 support the CPU power down.
The LEON3 halt now uses the power-down instruction to save
CPU power. This doesn't stop a potential watch-dog timer
from expiring.
Since or1k architecture stack grows down, threads should be initialized
with high stack addresses instead of lower ones. This is done in
_CPU_Context_Initialize function.
Converting 64-bit nanoseconds values into the common struct timeval or
struct timespec formats requires a 64-bit division to get the seconds
value. Performance analysis of high network loads revealed that this is
too costly on PowerPC.

Rename rtems_stdio_redirect_t to rtems_stdio_redirect since the
namespace *_t is reserved by POSIX, see also The Open Group Base
Specifications Issue 6 IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004 Edition, 2.2.2 The Name
Space.
This change starts with removing the effectively empty file
timerdrv.h. The prototypes for benchmark_timer_XXX() were in
btimer.h which was not universally used. Thus every use of
timerdrv.h had to be changed to btimer.h. Then the prototypes
for benchmark_timer_read() had to be adjusted to return
benchmark_timer_t rather than int or uint32_t.
I took this opportunity to also correct the file headers to
separate the copyright from the file description comments which
is needed to ensure the copyright isn't propagated into Doxygen
output.
This patch allocate a space in the stack to account for red-zone
that gcc may utilize for the use of leaf functions. Care must be
taken to handle this red-zone from many places:
1- Upon creation of a new thread stack.
2- Once an interrupt entred.
Also moving the enable-thread-dispach() and increment ISR level before
checking if dispatch needed was required.
The previous modifications solved the printf bug which disabled ticker
to output strings after context switches that arise from Thread_Delay_ended.
This module makes it easy to redirect and capture stdout, stderr or any
other fd in your application.
The captured data can be sent off board, for example using syslog,
or buffered and displayed in a web page.
The ping code is taken from a recent FreeBSD release. Some options have been
tested, other not tested or do not work. This could be due to the age of
our TCP/IP stack.
This version of ping will not work if more than 64 file descriptors are
open at once because the select FD size is 64 as set in newlib.
Without the source the error code does not say that much.
Let it be up to the CPU/BSP to determine the error code
reported on fatal shutdown.
This patch does not change the current behaviour, just
adds the option to handle the source of the fatal halt.
This implementation is able to catch cast to type
which differs not only in qualifiers. The error
diagnostic message when used in function is self
descriptive. Macro is compatible with used in initializers
but there message about not constant initial value
signals types incompatibility.
The actual implementation does not distinguish between
volatile and const removal.
