Multiprocessing Configuration
=============================

This section describes multiprocessing related configuration options.  The
options are only used if RTEMS was built with the ``--enable-multiprocessing``
build configuration option.  Additionally, this class of configuration options
are only applicable if the configuration option :ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION`
is defined.  The multiprocessing (MPCI) support must not be confused with the
SMP support.

CONFIGURE_EXTRA_MPCI_RECEIVE_SERVER_STACK
-----------------------------------------

.. rubric:: CONSTANT:

``CONFIGURE_EXTRA_MPCI_RECEIVE_SERVER_STACK``

.. rubric:: OPTION TYPE:

This configuration option is an integer define.

.. rubric:: DEFAULT VALUE:

The default value is 0.

.. rubric:: DESCRIPTION:

The value of this configuration option defines the number of bytes the
applications wishes to add to the MPCI task stack on top of
:ref:`CONFIGURE_MINIMUM_TASK_STACK_SIZE`.

.. rubric:: NOTES:

This configuration option is only evaluated if
:ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION` is defined.

.. rubric:: CONSTRAINTS:

The following constraints apply to this configuration option:

* The value of the configuration option shall be greater than or equal to zero.

* The value of the configuration option shall be less than or equal to
  `UINT32_MAX <https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/types/integer>`_.

* The value of the configuration option shall be small enough so that the MPCI
  receive server stack area calculation carried out by ``<rtems/confdefs.h>``
  does not overflow an integer of type `size_t
  <https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/types/size_t>`_.

CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION
------------------------

.. rubric:: CONSTANT:

``CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION``

.. rubric:: OPTION TYPE:

This configuration option is a boolean feature define.

.. rubric:: DEFAULT CONFIGURATION:

If this configuration option is undefined, then the multiprocessing services
are not initialized.

.. rubric:: DESCRIPTION:

This configuration option is defined to indicate that the application intends
to be part of a multiprocessing configuration.  Additional configuration
options are assumed to be provided.

.. rubric:: NOTES:

This configuration option shall be undefined if the multiprocessing support
is not enabled (e.g. RTEMS was built without the ``--enable-multiprocessing``
build configuration option).  Otherwise a compile time error in the
configuration file will occur.

.. rubric:: CONSTANT:

``CONFIGURE_MP_MAXIMUM_GLOBAL_OBJECTS``

.. rubric:: OPTION TYPE:

This configuration option is an integer define.

.. rubric:: DEFAULT VALUE:

The default value is 32.

.. rubric:: DESCRIPTION:

The value of this configuration option defines the maximum number of
concurrently active global objects in a multiprocessor system.

.. rubric:: NOTES:

This value corresponds to the total number of objects which can be created
with the :c:macro:`RTEMS_GLOBAL` attribute.

This configuration option is only evaluated if
:ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION` is defined.

.. rubric:: CONSTRAINTS:

The following constraints apply to this configuration option:

* The value of the configuration option shall be greater than or equal to zero.

* The value of the configuration option shall be less than or equal to

.. rubric:: CONSTANT:

``CONFIGURE_MP_MAXIMUM_NODES``

.. rubric:: OPTION TYPE:

This configuration option is an integer define.

.. rubric:: DEFAULT VALUE:

The default value is 2.

.. rubric:: DESCRIPTION:

The value of this configuration option defines the maximum number of nodes in
a multiprocessor system.

.. rubric:: NOTES:

This configuration option is only evaluated if
:ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION` is defined.

.. rubric:: CONSTRAINTS:

The following constraints apply to this configuration option:

* The value of the configuration option shall be greater than or equal to zero.

* The value of the configuration option shall be less than or equal to
  `UINT32_MAX <https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/types/integer>`_.

.. rubric:: CONSTANT:

``CONFIGURE_MP_MAXIMUM_PROXIES``

.. rubric:: OPTION TYPE:

This configuration option is an integer define.

.. rubric:: DEFAULT VALUE:

The default value is 32.

.. rubric:: DESCRIPTION:

The value of this configuration option defines the maximum number of
concurrently active thread/task proxies on this node in a multiprocessor
system.

.. rubric:: NOTES:

Since a proxy is used to represent a remote task/thread which is blocking
on this node. This configuration parameter reflects the maximum number of
remote tasks/threads which can be blocked on objects on this node, see
:ref:`MPCIProxies`.

This configuration option is only evaluated if
:ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION` is defined.

.. rubric:: CONSTRAINTS:

The following constraints apply to this configuration option:

* The value of the configuration option shall be greater than or equal to zero.

* The value of the configuration option shall be less than or equal to
  `UINT32_MAX <https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/types/integer>`_.

.. rubric:: OPTION TYPE:

This configuration option is an initializer define.

.. rubric:: DEFAULT VALUE:

The default value is ``&MPCI_table``.

.. rubric:: DESCRIPTION:

The value of this configuration option initializes the MPCI Configuration
Table.

.. rubric:: NOTES:

RTEMS provides a Shared Memory MPCI Device Driver which can be used on any
Multiprocessor System assuming the BSP provides the proper set of
supporting methods.

This configuration option is only evaluated if
:ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION` is defined.

.. rubric:: CONSTRAINTS:

The value of the configuration option shall be a pointer to
:c:type:`rtems_mpci_table`.

.. rubric:: OPTION TYPE:

This configuration option is an integer define.

.. rubric:: DEFAULT VALUE:

The default value is ``NODE_NUMBER``.

.. rubric:: DESCRIPTION:

The value of this configuration option defines the node number of this node
in a multiprocessor system.

.. rubric:: NOTES:

In the RTEMS Multiprocessing Test Suite, the node number is derived from
the Makefile variable ``NODE_NUMBER``. The same code is compiled with the
``NODE_NUMBER`` set to different values. The test programs behave
differently based upon their node number.

This configuration option is only evaluated if
:ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION` is defined.

.. rubric:: CONSTRAINTS:

The following constraints apply to this configuration option:

* The value of the configuration option shall be greater than or equal to zero.

* The value of the configuration option shall be less than or equal to
  `UINT32_MAX <https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/types/integer>`_.
