Add rtems_interrupt_local_disable|enable() as suggested by Pavel Pisa to emphasize that interrupts are only disabled on the current processor. Do not define the rtems_interrupt_disable|enable|flash() macros and functions on SMP configurations since they don't ensure system wide mutual exclusion.
This directory contains the RTEMS Classic API Timing Test Suite. The tests in this directory are used to measure the execution time of RTEMS directive and some critical internal functions. The results of these test are useful for comparison of RTEMS performance + between versions of RTEMS + between different boards + across different architectures These tests attempt to benchmark RTEMS as the user would. They measure the execution time for a directive (under various circumstances) from the time RTEMS is entered until it is executed. Where possible, the time is the average of at least 100 invocations of the directive. The accuracy of the times reported by these benchmarks is very dependent on the resolution of the timer being used. It is also important to insure that all sources of hardware interrupts are disabled during execution of the tests. This insures that the directive time reported does not include any interrupt time.
