@chapter CPU Initialization
|
|
|
|
This section describes the general CPU and system initialization sequence
|
|
as it pertains to the CPU dependent code.
|
|
|
|
@section Introduction
|
|
|
|
XXX general startup sequence description rewritten to make it more
|
|
applicable to CPU depdent code in executive
|
|
|
|
@section CPU Dependent Configuration Table
|
|
|
|
The CPU Dependent Configuration Table contains information which tailors
|
|
the behavior of RTEMS base Some of the fields in this table are required
|
|
to be present in all ports of RTEMS. These fields appear at the beginning
|
|
of the data structure. Fields past this point may be CPU family and CPU
|
|
model dependent. For example, a port may add a field to specify the
|
|
default value for an interrupt mask register on the CPU. This table is
|
|
initialized by the Board Support Package and passed to the
|
|
rtems_initialize_executive or rtems_initialize_executive_early directive.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
typedef struct @{
|
|
void (*pretasking_hook)( void );
|
|
void (*predriver_hook)( void );
|
|
void (*postdriver_hook)( void );
|
|
void (*idle_task)( void );
|
|
boolean do_zero_of_workspace;
|
|
unsigned32 idle_task_stack_size;
|
|
unsigned32 interrupt_stack_size;
|
|
unsigned32 extra_mpci_receive_server_stack;
|
|
void * (*stack_allocate_hook)( unsigned32 );
|
|
void (*stack_free_hook)( void* );
|
|
/* end of fields required on all CPUs */
|
|
|
|
unsigned32 some_other_cpu_dependent_info;
|
|
@} rtems_cpu_table;
|
|
@end example
|

@section Initializing the CPU
|
|
|
|
The _CPU_Initialize routine performs processor dependent initialization.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
void _CPU_Initialize(
|
|
rtems_cpu_table *cpu_table,
|
|
void (*thread_dispatch) /* may be ignored */
|
|
)
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
The thread_dispatch argument is the address of the entry point for the
|
|
routine called at the end of an ISR once it has been decided a context
|
|
switch is necessary. On some compilation systems it is difficult to call
|
|
a high-level language routine from assembly. Providing the address of the
|
|
_Thread_ISR_Dispatch routine allows the porter an easy way to obtain this
|
|
critical address and thus provides an easy way to work around this
|
|
limitation on these systems.
|
|
|
|
If you encounter this problem save the entry point in a CPU dependent
|
|
variable as shown below:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
_CPU_Thread_dispatch_pointer = thread_dispatch;
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
|
|
During the initialization of the context for tasks with floating point,
|
|
the CPU dependent code is responsible for initializing the floating point
|
|
context. If there is not an easy way to initialize the FP context during
|
|
Context_Initialize, then it is usually easier to save an "uninitialized"
|
|
FP context here and copy it to the task's during Context_Initialize. If
|
|
this technique is used to initialize the FP contexts, then it is important
|
|
to ensure that the state of the floating point unit is in a coherent,
|
|
initialized state.
|
|
|
|
Finally, this routine is responsible for copying the application's CPU
|
|
Table into a locally accessible and modifiable area. This is shown below:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
_CPU_Table = *cpu_table;
|
|
@end example
|
