This patch adds a brief description of how context state is saved into the
SP on exception entry, and makes a few changes to _ARMV7M_Exception_default
in order to make it a bit more efficient. I also removed the unused 'v7mfsz'
input parameter.
This should apply over Sudarshan's patch.
flush_data_cache uses R0 directly but doesn't list it as a clobbered
register. Compiling with -O3 made this code break, since the function
that calls flush_data_cache already uses r0.
closes#2416.
Compiling dumpbuf.c causes the following warning to be issued:
warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'snprintf' differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]
This happens because line_buffer is declared as unsigned.
Closes#2411.
Apparently 'free' is defined as a macro which takes two arguments and calls
rtems_bsdnet_free. When fixing #2405 I added a missing 'free' but didn't notice
it was non-standard.
Closes#2410.
Changes relative to the previous patch set:
- Moved GPIO pin interrupts to rtems chains, instead of a local linked list;
- Restructured the pin tracking structure, separating the interrupt information for each pin meaning that a pin without any interrupt enabled only requires 8 bytes, while keeping interrupt information (handling information, handler chain control, ...) requires 24 additional bytes (total of 32 bytes per pin with interrupts enabled);
- Added support for 'parallel' pin function assignment, allowing the function assignment to be set for multiple pins in a single GPIO hardware call. If a BSP does not support this feature it becomes a sequence of individual calls per pin. Also added support for GPIO pin groupings, allowing to write and read byte data to a series of pins which behave as a single entity;
- Added bank tracking structure to maintain the bank lock and bank level interrupt information (threaded/normal handling, interrupt counter);
- Changed GPIO settings to BSP defined constants, reducing dynamic memory allocation;
- Switched interrupt tasks for a rtems interrupt server, with the possibility of using normal interrupts (user handlers being called within ISR context).
