+Tools Required
+==============
+The following tools are used in the production of this documentation:
+
+TeX
+texinfo 3.7
+texi2www-960103
+
+This was used by the authors to generate the directory tree figure
+in the texinfo printed version:
+
+tree (from the CTAN Archives -- see http://jasper.ora.com/ctan.html)
+
+Installation
+============
+1.  Edit replace-word so it references perl in the correct location.
+
+2.  Edit Make.config and localize it.
+
+3.  Edit do_docs and fix basedir
+
+4.  Create the installation point for the html and info files.
+
+5.  Copy texi2www gif files into the main rtems html install directory.
+
+
+Use do_docs to:
+
+do_docs info
+do_docs html
+do_docs clean

+measurement of the performance of RTEMS, the methods of
+gathering the timing data, and the usefulness of the data.  Also
+discussed are other time critical aspects of RTEMS that affect
+an applications design and ultimate throughput.  These aspects

+
+Benchmarks are commonly used to evaluate the
+performance of software and hardware.  Benchmarks can be an
+effective tool when comparing systems.  Unfortunately,
+benchmarks can also be manipulated to justify virtually any
+claim.  Benchmarks of real-time executives are difficult to
+evaluate for a variety of reasons.  Executives vary in the
+robustness of features and options provided.  Even when
+executives compare favorably in functionality, it is quite
+likely that different methodologies were used to obtain the
+timing data.  Another problem is that some executives provide
+times for only a small subset of directives,  This is typically
+justified by claiming that these are the only time-critical
+directives.  The performance of some executives is also very
+sensitive to the number of objects in the system.  To obtain any
+measure of usefulness, the performance information provided for
+an executive should address each of these issues.
+
+When evaluating the performance of a real-time
+executive, one typically considers the following areas:
+determinancy, directive times, worst case interrupt latency, and
+context switch time.  Unfortunately, these areas do not have
+standard measurement methodologies.  This allows vendors to
+manipulate the results such that their product is favorably
+represented.  We have attempted to provide useful and meaningful
+timing information for RTEMS.  To insure the usefulness of our
+data, the methodology and definitions used to obtain and
+describe the data are also documented.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Determinancy, Interrupt Latency, Timing Specification Philosophy, Timing Specification Philosophy
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Determinancy
+
+The correctness of data in a real-time system must
+always be judged by its timeliness.  In many real-time systems,
+obtaining the correct answer does not necessarily solve the
+problem.  For example, in a nuclear reactor it is not enough to
+determine that the core is overheating.  This situation must be
+detected and acknowledged early enough that corrective action
+can be taken and a meltdown avoided.
+
+Consequently, a system designer must be able to
+predict the worst-case behavior of the application running under
+the selected executive.  In this light, it is important that a
+real-time system perform consistently regardless of the number
+of tasks, semaphores, or other resources allocated.  An
+important design goal of a real-time executive is that all
+internal algorithms be fixed-cost.  Unfortunately, this goal is
+difficult to completely meet without sacrificing the robustness
+of the executive's feature set.
+
+Many executives use the term deterministic to mean
+that the execution times of their services can be predicted.
+However, they often provide formulas to modify execution times
+based upon the number of objects in the system.  This usage is
+in sharp contrast to the notion of deterministic meaning fixed
+cost.
+
+Almost all RTEMS directives execute in a fixed amount
+of time regardless of the number of objects present in the
+system.  The primary exception occurs when a task blocks while
+acquiring a resource and specifies a non-zero timeout interval.
+
+Other exceptions are message queue broadcast,
+obtaining a variable length memory block, object name to ID
+translation, and deleting a resource upon which tasks are
+waiting.  In addition, the time required to service a clock tick
+interrupt is based upon the number of timeouts and other
+"events" which must be processed at that tick.  This second
+group is composed primarily of capabilities which are inherently
+non-deterministic but are infrequently used in time critical
+situations.  The major exception is that of servicing a clock
+tick.  However, most applications have a very small number of
+timeouts which expire at exactly the same millisecond (usually
+none, but occasionally two or three).
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Interrupt Latency, Context Switch Time, Determinancy, Timing Specification Philosophy
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Interrupt Latency
+
+Interrupt latency is the delay between the CPU's
+receipt of an interrupt request and the execution of the first
+application-specific instruction in an interrupt service
+routine.  Interrupts are a critical component of most real-time
+applications and it is critical that they be acted upon as
+quickly as possible.
+
+Knowledge of the worst case interrupt latency of an
+executive aids the application designer in determining the
+maximum period of time between the generation of an interrupt
+and an interrupt handler responding to that interrupt.  The
+interrupt latency of an system is the greater of the executive's
+and the applications's interrupt latency.  If the application
+disables interrupts longer than the executive, then the
+application's interrupt latency is the system's worst case
+interrupt disable period.
+
+The worst case interrupt latency for a real-time
+executive is based upon the following components:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item the longest period of time interrupts are disabled
+by the executive,
+
+@item the overhead required by the executive at the
+beginning of each ISR,
+
+@item the time required for the CPU to vector the
+interrupt, and
+
+@item for some microprocessors, the length of the longest
+instruction.
+@end itemize
+
+The first component is irrelevant if an interrupt
+occurs when interrupts are enabled, although it must be included
+in a worst case analysis.  The third and fourth components are
+particular to a CPU implementation and are not dependent on the
+executive.  The fourth component is ignored by this document
+because most applications use only a subset of a
+microprocessor's instruction set.  Because of this the longest
+instruction actually executed is application dependent.  The
+worst case interrupt latency of an executive is typically
+defined as the sum of components (1) and (2).  The second
+component includes the time necessry for RTEMS to save registers
+and vector to the user-defined handler.  RTEMS includes the
+third component, the time required for the CPU to vector the
+interrupt, because it is a required part of any interrupt.
+
+Many executives report the maximum interrupt disable
+period as their interrupt latency and ignore the other
+components.  This results in very low worst-case interrupt
+latency times which are not indicative of actual application
+performance.  The definition used by RTEMS results in a higher
+interrupt latency being reported, but accurately reflects the
+longest delay between the CPU's receipt of an interrupt request
+and the execution of the first application-specific instruction
+in an interrupt service routine.
+
+The actual interrupt latency times are reported in
+the Timing Data chapter of this supplement.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Context Switch Time, Directive Times, Interrupt Latency, Timing Specification Philosophy
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Context Switch Time
+
+An RTEMS context switch is defined as the act of
+taking the CPU from the currently executing task and giving it
+to another task.  This process involves the following components:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item Saving the hardware state of the current task.
+
+@item Optionally, invoking the TASK_SWITCH user extension.
+
+@item Restoring the hardware state of the new task.
+@end itemize
+
+RTEMS defines the hardware state of a task to include
+the CPU's data registers, address registers, and, optionally,
+floating point registers.
+
+Context switch time is often touted as a performance
+measure of real-time executives.  However, a context switch is
+performed as part of a directive's actions and should be viewed
+as such when designing an application.  For example, if a task
+is unable to acquire a semaphore and blocks, a context switch is
+required to transfer control from the blocking task to a new
+task.  From the application's perspective, the context switch is
+a direct result of not acquiring the semaphore.  In this light,
+the context switch time is no more relevant than the performance
+of any other of the executive's subroutines which are not
+directly accessible by the application.
+
+In spite of the inappropriateness of using the
+context switch time as a performance metric, RTEMS context
+switch times for floating point and non-floating points tasks
+are provided for comparison purposes.  Of the executives which
+actually support floating point operations, many do not report
+context switch times for floating point context switch time.
+This results in a reported context switch time which is
+meaningless for an application with floating point tasks.
+
+The actual context switch times are reported in the
+Timing Data chapter of this supplement.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Directive Times, Timing Specification Methodology, Context Switch Time, Timing Specification Philosophy
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Directive Times
+
+Directives are the application's interface to the
+executive, and as such their execution times are critical in
+determining the performance of the application.  For example, an
+application using a semaphore to protect a critical data
+structure should be aware of the time required to acquire and
+release a semaphore.  In addition, the application designer can
+utilize the directive execution times to evaluate the
+performance of different synchronization and communication
+mechanisms.
+
+The actual directive execution times are reported in
+the Timing Data chapter of this supplement.

+@subsection Software Platform
+
+The RTEMS timing suite is written in C.  The overhead
+of passing arguments to RTEMS by C is not timed.  The times
+reported represent the amount of time from entering to exiting
+RTEMS.
+
+The tests are based upon one of two execution models:
+(1) single invocation times, and (2) average times of repeated
+invocations.  Single invocation times are provided for
+directives which cannot easily be invoked multiple times in the
+same scenario.  For example, the times reported for entering and
+exiting an interrupt service routine are single invocation
+times.  The second model is used for directives which can easily
+be invoked multiple times in the same scenario.  For example,
+the times reported for semaphore obtain and semaphore release
+are averages of multiple invocations.  At least 100 invocations
+are used to obtain the average.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Hardware Platform, What is measured?, Software Platform, Timing Specification Methodology
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Hardware Platform
+
+Since RTEMS supports a variety of processors, the
+hardware platform used to gather the benchmark times must also
+vary.  Therefore, for each processor supported the hardware
+platform must be defined.  Each definition will include a brief
+description of the target hardware platform including the clock
+speed, memory wait states encountered, and any other pertinent
+information.  This definition may be found in the processor
+dependent timing data chapter within this supplement.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node What is measured?, What is not measured?, Hardware Platform, Timing Specification Methodology
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection What is measured?
+
+An effort was made to provide execution times for a
+large portion of RTEMS.  Times were provided for most directives
+regardless of whether or not they are typically used in time
+critical code.  For example, execution times are provided for
+all object create and delete directives, even though these are
+typically part of application initialization.
+
+The times include all RTEMS actions necessary in a
+particular scenario.  For example, all times for blocking
+directives include the context switch necessary to transfer
+control to a new task.  Under no circumstances is it necessary
+to add context switch time to the reported times.
+
+The following list describes the objects created by
+the timing suite:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item All tasks are non-floating point.
+
+@item All tasks are created as local objects.
+
+@item No timeouts are used on blocking directives.
+
+@item All tasks wait for objects in FIFO order.
+
+@end itemize
+
+In addition, no user extensions are configured.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node What is not measured?, Terminology, What is measured?, Timing Specification Methodology
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection What is not measured?
+
+The times presented in this document are not intended
+to represent best or worst case times, nor are all directives
+included.  For example, no times are provided for the initialize
+executive and fatal_error_occurred directives.  Other than the
+exceptions detailed in the Determinancy section, all directives
+will execute in the fixed length of time given.
+
+Other than entering and exiting an interrupt service
+routine, all directives were executed from tasks and not from
+interrupt service routines.  Directives invoked from ISRs, when
+allowable, will execute in slightly less time than when invoked
+from a task because rescheduling is delayed until the interrupt
+exits.

+
+The RTEMS RAM Workspace Worksheet is a tool provided
+to aid the RTEMS application designer to accurately calculate
+the minimum memory block to be reserved for RTEMS use.  This
+worksheet provides equations for calculating the amount of
+memory required based upon the number of objects configured,
+whether for single or multiple processor versions of the
+executive.  This information is presented in tabular form, along
+with the fixed system requirements, allowing for quick
+calculation of any application defined configuration of RTEMS.

+
+RTEMS is compiled using the GNU gmake(1G) utilities.
+All examples in this section are with the gmake(1G) command.
+Note that the installation procedure for GNU Make installs it as
+make.  It is referred to as gmake in this document to
+distinguish it from any other make utilities which may also be
+on the development system.
+
+The GNU Make utility uses a file that describes the
+relationships among the files and the operations necessary for
+updating each file. The GNU Make utility uses stanzas to specify
+which set of relationships to update.  Each component and suite
+control directory contains a make control file, Makefile, which
+describes the relationships which must be checked and the
+associated update operations for each stanza. This facility is
+used to perform compilation, to remove intermediate files, to
+install RTEMS, and to maintain release and working set source
+and documentation notebooks. The following is a list of stanzas
+used by RTEMS make control files:
+
+@ifset use-texinfo-tables
+@table @code
+@item all
+perform compilation but do not install
+
+@item install
+perform compilation if directory contains source but do not install

+@section Building the Entire Tree
+
+At the top of the C source tree, execute the command
+gmake all.  This will build and install all components and tests
+into the directory <TARGET> in this directory.

+@section Making a Component
+
+A single component can be compiled by changing to the
+directory which contains that component and performing the
+following command:
+
+@example
+gmake
+@end example
+
+
+This is equivalent to the following command:
+
+@example
+gmake all
+@end example
+
+Both commands will result in the GNU Make utility
+determining which files require compilation or assembly.  If any
+files require compilation or assembly, then these operations
+will be performed followed by the appropriate archive or link
+command. Files installed are placed in subdirectories under the
+install point.  The install point is determined by the setting
+of the variable PROJECT_HOME in the file
+c/make/custom/<TARGET>.cfg.
+
+If the current directory is not a leaf directory,
+then the requested operation will be performed recursively to
+all subdirectories under the current directory.
+
+By specifying one of the other stanzas supported by
+the Makefile, the GNU Make utility can be used to perform such
+operations as removing all automatically generated files in a
+component (clean and clobbers stanza).
+
+NOTE: For many components it is not possible to
+compile them until other components have been installed.

+@end ifinfo
+@section Optional Manager Support
+
+RTEMS allows the C applications developer to build
+images that only contain those components of the executive that
+are needed, leaving out those that will not be utilized.  This
+is accomplished by the RTEMS Makefile system linking in the
+"stub" versions of the optional managers in the place of those
+managers not needed by the specific application.   The
+application Makefile sets the system variable $(MANAGERS) list
+to contain those managers that are required by the application.
+The RTEMS Makefile system then is able to build a list of
+managers that are unwanted, effectively linking in the stubbed
+versions of these managers before the RTEMS library is built.
+
+For more information and implementation details refer
+to the following files:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item c/make/leaf.cfg,
+
+@item a Makefile for a test or sample application, and
+
+@item a compiler description file from c/make/compilers
+@end itemize
+
+These files demonstrate the use of $(MANAGERS) and
+how the unwanted managers are handled.

+
+The RTEMS directory structure is designed to meet
+the following requirements:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item encourage development of modular components.
+
+@item isolate processor and target dependent code, while
+allowing as much common source code as possible to be shared
+across multiple processors and targets.
+
+@item allow multiple RTEMS users to perform simultaneous
+compilation of RTEMS and its support facilities for different
+processors and targets.
+@end itemize
+
+The resulting directory structure has processor and
+target dependent source files isolated from generic files.  When
+RTEMS is built, object directories and an install point will be
+automatically created based upon the target BSP selected.  The
+placement of object files based upon the selected BSP name
+insures that object files are not mixed across CPUs or targets.
+This in combination with the make files allows the specific
+compilation options to be tailored for a particular target
+board.  For example, the efficiency of the memory subsystem for
+a particular target board may be sensitive to the alignment of
+data structures, while on another target board with the same
+processor memory may be very limited.  For the first target, the
+options could specify very strict alignment requirements, while
+on the second the data structures could be "packed" to conserve
+memory.  It is impossible to achieve this degree of flexibility
+without providing source code.

+currently nothing shared between the source trees for these two
+implementations of RTEMS.  The user generally selects the
+subdirectory for the implementation they are using and ignores
+that for the other implementation.  The only exceptions to this
+normally occurs when comparing the source code for the two
+implementations or when porting both to a new CPU or target
+board.  The following shows the top level RTEMS directory
+structure which includes directories for each language
+implementation and a language independent source documentation
+directory.  The source documentation directory is currently not

+This directory contains a set of subdirectories which
+contains the source files comprising the executive portion of
+the RTEMS development environment.  At this point the API
+specific and "supercore" source code files are separated into
+distinct directory trees.  The "rtems" and the "posix"
+subdirectories contain the C language source files for each
+module comprising the respective API.  Also included in this
+directory are the subdirectories "sapi" and "score" which are
+the supercore modules.  Within the "score" directory the CPU
+dependent modules are found.
+
+The "cpu" directory contains a subdirectory for each
+target CPU supported by the @value{RTEMS-RELEASE} release of the RTEMS
+executive.  Each processor directory contains the CPU dependent
+code necessary to host RTEMS.  The "no_cpu" directory provides a
+starting point for developing a new port to an unsupported
+processor.  The files contained within the "no_cpu" directory
+may also be used as a reference for the other ports to specific
+processors.

+@subsection Support Library Source Directory
+
+The "lib" directory contains the support libraries and BSPS.  
+Board support packages (BSPs), processor environment start up code,
+C library support, the KA9Q TCP/IP stack, common BSP header files,
+and miscellaneous support functions are provided in the subdirectories.
+These are combined with the RTEMS executive object to form the single 
+RTEMS library which installed.  
+
+@c
+@c  Tree 6 - Libraries

+
+
+The "libbsp" directory contains a directory for each CPU family supported
+by RTEMS.  Beneath each CPU directory is a directory for each BSP for that
+processor family.
+
+@c
+@c  Tree 7 - C BSP Library
+@c
+
+Th "libbsp" directory provides all the BSPs provided with this
+release of the RTEMS executive.  The subdirectories are
+divided,  as discussed previously, based on specific processor
+family, then further breaking down into specific target board
+environments.  The "shmdr" subdirectory provides the
+implementation of a shared memory driver which supports the
+multiprocessing portion of the executive.  In addition, two
+starting point subdirectories are provided for reference.  The
+"no_cpu" subdirectory provides a template BSP which can be used
+to develop a specific BSP for an unsupported target board.  The
+"stubdr" subdirectory provides stubbed out BSPs.  These files
+may aid in preliminary testing of the RTEMS development
+environment that has been built for no particular target in mind.
+
+Below each CPU dependent directory is a directory for each target BSP
+supported in this release.
+
+Each BSP provides the modules which comprise an RTEMS BSP.  The 
+modules are separated into the subdirectories "clock", "console", 
+"include", "shmsupp", "startup", and "timer" as shown in the following

+@chapter Introduction
+
+This document describes the RTEMS development
+environment.  Discussions are provided for the following topics:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item the directory structure used by RTEMS,
+
+@item usage of the GNU Make utility within the RTEMS
+development environment,
+
+@item sample applications, and
+
+@item the RTEMS specific utilities.
+@end itemize
+
+RTEMS was designed as a reusable software component.
+Highly reusable software such as RTEMS is typically distributed
+in the form of source code without providing any support tools.
+RTEMS is the foundation for a complex family of facilities
+including board support packages, device drivers, and support
+libraries.  The RTEMS Development Environment is not a CASE
+tool.  It is a collection of tools designed to reduce the
+complexity of using and enhancing the RTEMS family.  Tools are
+provided which aid in the management of the development,
+maintenance, and usage of RTEMS, its run-time support
+facilities, and applications which utilize the executive.
+
+A key component of the RTEMS development environment
+is the GNU family of free tools.  This is  robust set of
+development and POSIX compatible tools for which source code is
+freely available.  The primary compilers, assemblers, linkers,
+and make utility used by the RTEMS development team are the GNU
+tools.  They are highly portable supporting a wide variety of
+host computers and, in the case of the development tools, a wide
+variety of target processors.
+
+It is recommended that the RTEMS developer become
+familiar with the RTEMS Development Environment before
+proceeding with any modifications to the executive source tree.
+The source code for the executive is very modular and source
+code is divided amongst directories based upon functionality as
+well as dependencies on CPU and target board.  This organization
+is aimed at isolating and minimizing non-portable code.  This
+has the immediate result that adding support for a new CPU or
+target board requires very little "wandering" around the source
+tree.

+These applications are intended to illustrate the
+basic format of RTEMS single and multiple processor
+applications.  In addition, these relatively simple applications
+can be used to test locally developed board support packages and
+device drivers.
+
+The reader should be familiar with the terms used and

+@section Hello World
+
+This sample application is in the following directory:
+
+@example
+$RTEMS_SRC_BASE/tests/samples/hello
+@end example
+
+It provides a rudimentary test of the BSP start up
+code and the console output routine.  The C version of this
+sample application uses the printf function from the RTEMS
+Standard C Library to output messages.   The Ada version of this
+sample use the TEXT_IO package to output the hello messages.
+The following messages are printed:
+
+@example
+@group
+*** HELLO WORLD TEST ***
+Hello World
+*** END OF HELLO WORLD TEST ***
+@end group
+@end example
+
+These messages are printed from the application's
+single initialization task.  If the above messages are not
+printed correctly, then either the BSP start up code or the
+console output routine is not operating properly.

+@section Clock Tick
+
+This sample application is in the following directory:
+
+@example
+$RTEMS_SRC_BASE/tests/samples/ticker
+@end example
+
+This application is designed as a simple test of the
+clock tick device driver.  In addition, this application also
+tests the printf function from the RTEMS Standard C Library by
+using it to output the following messages:
+
+@example
+@group
+*** CLOCK TICK TEST ***

+TA1 - tm_get - 09:00:10   12/31/1988
+TA2 - tm_get - 09:00:10   12/31/1988
+TA1 - tm_get - 09:00:15   12/31/1988
+TA3 - tm_get - 09:00:15   12/31/1988
+TA1 - tm_get - 09:00:20   12/31/1988
+TA2 - tm_get - 09:00:20   12/31/1988
+TA1 - tm_get - 09:00:25   12/31/1988
+TA1 - tm_get - 09:00:30   12/31/1988
+TA2 - tm_get - 09:00:30   12/31/1988
+TA3 - tm_get - 09:00:30   12/31/1988
+*** END OF CLOCK TICK TEST ***
+@end group
+@end example
+
+The clock tick sample application utilizes a single
+initialization task and three copies of the single application
+task.  The initialization task prints the test herald, sets the
+time and date, and creates and starts the three application
+tasks before deleting itself.  The three application tasks
+generate the rest of the output.  Every five seconds, one or
+more of the tasks will print the current time obtained via the
+tm_get directive.  The first task, TA1, executes every five
+seconds, the second task, TA2, every ten seconds, and the third
+task, TA3, every fifteen seconds. If the time printed does not
+match the above output, then the clock device driver is not
+operating properly.

+@section Base Single Processor Application
+
+This sample application is in the following directory:

+@example
+$RTEMS_SRC_BASE/tests/samples/base_sp
+@end example
+
+It provides a framework from which a single processor
+RTEMS application can be developed. The use of the task argument
+is illustrated.  This sample application uses the printf
+function from the RTEMS Standard C Library or TEXT_IO functions
+when using the Ada version to output the following messages:
+
+@example
+@group
+*** SAMPLE SINGLE PROCESSOR APPLICATION ***
+Creating and starting an application task
+Application task was invoked with argument (0) and has id of 0x10002
+*** END OF SAMPLE SINGLE PROCESSOR APPLICATION ***
+@end group
+@end example
+
+The first two messages are printed from the
+application's single initialization task.  The final messages
+are printed from the single application task.

+@section Base Multiple Processor Application
+
+This sample application is in the following directory:
+
+@example
+$RTEMS_SRC_BASE/tests/samples/base_mp
+@end example
+
+It provides a framework from which a multiprocessor
+RTEMS application can be developed. This directory has a
+subdirectory for each node in the multiprocessor system.  The
+task argument is used to distinguish the node on which the
+application task is executed.  The first node will print the
+following messages:
+
+@example
+@group
+*** SAMPLE MULTIPROCESSOR APPLICATION ***
+Creating and starting an application task
+This task was invoked with the node argument (1)
+This task has the id of 0x10002
+*** END OF SAMPLE MULTIPROCESSOR APPLICATION ***
+@end group
+@end example
+
+The second node will print the following messages:
+
+@example
+@group
+*** SAMPLE MULTIPROCESSOR APPLICATION ***
+Creating and starting an application task
+This task was invoked with the node argument (2)
+This task has the id of 0x20002
+*** END OF SAMPLE MULTIPROCESSOR APPLICATION ***
+@end group
+@end example
+
+The herald is printed from the application's single
+initialization task on each node.  The final messages are
+printed from the single application task on each node.
+
+In this sample application, all source code is shared
+between the nodes except for the node dependent configuration
+files.  These files contains the definition of the node number
+used in the initialization of the  RTEMS Multiprocessor
+Configuration Table. This file is not shared because the node
+number field in the RTEMS Multiprocessor Configuration Table
+must be unique on each node.

+
+This sample application is in the following directory:
+
+@example
+$RTEMS_SRC_BASE/tests/samples/cdtest
+@end example
+
+This sample application demonstrates that RTEMS is
+compatible with C++ applications.  It uses constructors,
+destructor, and I/O stream output in testing these various
+capabilities.  The board support package responsible for this
+application must support a C++ environment.
+
+This sample application uses the printf function from
+the RTEMS Standard C Library to output the following messages:
+
+@example
+@group

+
+This sample application is in the following directory:
+
+@example
+$RTEMS_SRC_BASE/tests/samples/paranoia
+@end example
+
+This sample application uses a public domain floating
+point and math library test to verify these capabilities of the
+RTEMS executive.  Deviations between actual and expected results
+are reported to the screen.  This is a very extensive test which
+tests all mathematical and number conversion functions.
+Paranoia is also very large and requires a long period of time
+to run.   Problems which commonly prevent this test from
+executing to completion include stack overflow and FPU exception
+handlers not installed.

+This section describes the additional commands
+available within the RTEMS Development Environment.  Although
+some of these commands are of general use, most are included to
+provide some capability necessary to perform a required function
+in the development of the RTEMS executive, one of its support
+components, or an RTEMS based application.  The commands have
+been classified into the following categories for clarity:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item C Language Specific Utilities
+
+@item Ada Language Specific Utilities
+@end itemize
+
+Some of the commands are implemented as C programs.
+However, most commands are implemented as Bourne shell scripts.
+Even if the current user has selected a different shell, the
+scripts will automatically invoke the Bourne shell during their
+execution lifetime.
+
+The commands are presented in UNIX manual page style
+for compatibility and convenience.  A standard set of paragraph
+headers were used for all of the command descriptions.  If a
+section contained no data, the paragraph header was omitted to
+conserve space.  Each of the permissible paragraph headers and
+their contents are described below:
+
+@table @code
+@item SYNOPSIS
+describes the command syntax
+
+@item DESCRIPTION
+a full description of the command
+
+@item OPTIONS

+illustrates the use of the command with specific examples
+
+@item FILES
+provides a list of major files that the command references
+
+@item SEE ALSO
+lists any relevant commands which can be consulted
+@end table
+
+Most environment variables referenced by the commands
+are defined for the RTEMS Development Environment during the
+login procedure.  During login, the user selects a default RTEMS
+environment through the use of the Modules package.  This tool
+effectively sets the environment variables to provide a
+consistent development environment for a specific user.
+Additional environment variables within the RTEMS environment
+were set by the system administrator during installation.  When
+specifying paths, a command description makes use of these
+environment variables.
+
+When referencing other commands in the SEE ALSO
+paragraph, the following notation is used:   command(code).
+Where command is the name of a related command, and code is a
+section number.  Valid section numbers are as follows:

+@subsection packhex - Compress Hexadecimal File
+
+@subheading SYNOPSIS
+
+@example
+packhex <source >destination
+@end example
+
+@subheading DESCRIPTION
+
+packhex accepts Intel Hexadecimal or Motorola Srecord
+on its standard input and attempts to pack as many contiguous
+bytes as possible into a single hexadecimal record.  Many
+programs output hexadecimal records which are less than 80 bytes
+long (for human viewing).  The overhead required by each
+unnecessary record is significant and packhex can often reduce
+the size of the download image by 20%.  packhex attempts to
+output records which are as long as the hexadecimal format
+allows.
+
+@subheading OPTIONS
+
+This command has no options.
+
+@subheading EXAMPLES
+
+Assume the current directory contains the Motorola
+Srecord file download.sr. Then executing the command:
+
+@example
+packhex <download.sr >packed.sr
+@end example
+
+will generate the file packed.sr which is usually
+smaller than download.sr.
+
+@subheading CREDITS
+
+The source for packhex first appeared in the May 1993
+issue of Embedded Systems magazine.  The code was downloaded
+from their BBS.  Unfortunately, the author's name was not
+provided in the listing.

+@section Ada Language Specific Utilities
+
+The Ada language utilities provide a powerful set of
+tools which combine to allow operations within the RTEMS
+Development Environment to be consistent and easy to use.  Much
+effort was devoted to providing as close to the standard UNIX
+and GNU style of operations as possible.  Each of these
+utilities are described in the section below.
+
+NOTE:  The Ada implementation is not included in this
+release.

+@subsection Priority
+
+In the RTEMS implementation of the POSIX API, the priorities range from
+the low priority of sched_get_priority_min() to the highest priority of
+sched_get_priority_max().  Numerically higher values represent higher
+priorities.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Scheduling Policies, Scheduler Manager Operations, Priority, Scheduler Manager Background
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Scheduling Policies
+
+The following scheduling policies are available:
+
+@table @b
+@item SCHED_FIFO
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling with no timeslicing.  This is equivalent
+to what is called "manual round-robin" scheduling.
+
+@item SCHED_RR
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling with timeslicing.  Time quantums are 
+maintained on a per-thread basis and are not reset at each context switch.
+Thus, a thread which is preempted and subsequently resumes execution will
+attempt to complete the unused portion of its time quantum.
+
+@item SCHED_OTHER
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling with timeslicing.  Time quantums are 
+maintained on a per-thread basis and are reset at each context switch.
+
+@item SCHED_SPORADIC
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling utilizing three additional parameters:
+budget, replenishment period, and low priority.  Under this policy, the 
+thread is allowed to execute for "budget" amount of time before its priority
+is lowered to "low priority".  At the end of each replenishment period,
+the thread resumes its initial priority and has its budget replenished.

+@subsection Signal Delivery
+
+Signals directed at a thread are delivered to the specified thread.
+
+Signals directed at a process are delivered to a thread which is selected
+based on the following algorithm:
+
+@enumerate
+@item If the action for this signal is currently SIG_IGN, then the signal
+is simply ignored.
+
+@item If the currently executing thread has the signal unblocked, then
+the signal is delivered to it.
+
+@item If any threads are currently blocked waiting for this signal 
+(sigwait()), then the signal is delivered to the highest priority 
+thread waiting for this signal.
+
+@item If any other threads are willing to accept delivery of the signal, then
+the signal is delivered to the highest priority thread of this set.  In the
+event, multiple threads of the same priority are willing to accept this
+signal, then priority is given first to ready threads, then to threads
+blocked on calls which may be interrupted, and finally to threads blocked
+on non-interruptible calls.
+
+@item In the event the signal still can not be delivered, then it is left
+pending.  The first thread to unblock the signal (sigprocmask() or
+pthread_sigprocmask()) or to wait for this signal (sigwait()) will be
+the recipient of the signal.

+@subsection Thread Attributes
+
+Thread attributes are utilized only at thread creation time.
+
+@table @b
+@item stack address
+is the address of the optionally user specified stack area for this thread.
+If this value is NULL, then RTEMS allocates the memory for the thread stack 
+from the RTEMS Workspace Area.  Otherwise, this is the user specified
+address for the memory to be used for the thread's stack.  Each thread must
+have a distinct stack area.  Each processor family has different alignment
+rules which should be followed.
+
+@item stack size
+is the minimum desired size for this thread's stack area.
+If the size of this area as specified by the stack size attribute 
+is smaller than the minimum for this processor family and the stack 
+is not user specified, then RTEMS will automatically allocate a 
+stack of the minimum size for this processor family.
+
+@item contention scope
+specifies the scheduling contention scope.  RTEMS only supports the
+PTHREAD_SCOPE_PROCESS scheduling contention scope.
+
+@item scheduling inheritance
+specifies whether a user specified or the scheduling policy and 
+parameters of the currently executing thread are to be used.  When 
+this is PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED, then the scheduling policy and 
+parameters of the currently executing thread are inherited by 
+the newly created thread.
+
+@item scheduling policy and parameters
+specify the manner in which the thread will contend for the processor.
+The scheduling parameters are interpreted based on the specified policy.
+All policies utilize the thread priority parameter.

+@subsection Priority
+
+In the RTEMS implementation of the POSIX API, the priorities range from
+the low priority of sched_get_priority_min() to the highest priority of
+sched_get_priority_max().  Numerically higher values represent higher
+priorities.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Scheduling Policies, Scheduler Manager Operations, Priority, Scheduler Manager Background
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Scheduling Policies
+
+The following scheduling policies are available:
+
+@table @b
+@item SCHED_FIFO
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling with no timeslicing.  This is equivalent
+to what is called "manual round-robin" scheduling.
+
+@item SCHED_RR
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling with timeslicing.  Time quantums are 
+maintained on a per-thread basis and are not reset at each context switch.
+Thus, a thread which is preempted and subsequently resumes execution will
+attempt to complete the unused portion of its time quantum.
+
+@item SCHED_OTHER
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling with timeslicing.  Time quantums are 
+maintained on a per-thread basis and are reset at each context switch.
+
+@item SCHED_SPORADIC
+Priority-based, preemptive scheduling utilizing three additional parameters:
+budget, replenishment period, and low priority.  Under this policy, the 
+thread is allowed to execute for "budget" amount of time before its priority
+is lowered to "low priority".  At the end of each replenishment period,
+the thread resumes its initial priority and has its budget replenished.

+@subsection Signal Delivery
+
+Signals directed at a thread are delivered to the specified thread.
+
+Signals directed at a process are delivered to a thread which is selected
+based on the following algorithm:
+
+@enumerate
+@item If the action for this signal is currently SIG_IGN, then the signal
+is simply ignored.
+
+@item If the currently executing thread has the signal unblocked, then
+the signal is delivered to it.
+
+@item If any threads are currently blocked waiting for this signal 
+(sigwait()), then the signal is delivered to the highest priority 
+thread waiting for this signal.
+
+@item If any other threads are willing to accept delivery of the signal, then
+the signal is delivered to the highest priority thread of this set.  In the
+event, multiple threads of the same priority are willing to accept this
+signal, then priority is given first to ready threads, then to threads
+blocked on calls which may be interrupted, and finally to threads blocked
+on non-interruptible calls.
+
+@item In the event the signal still can not be delivered, then it is left
+pending.  The first thread to unblock the signal (sigprocmask() or
+pthread_sigprocmask()) or to wait for this signal (sigwait()) will be
+the recipient of the signal.

+@subsection Thread Attributes
+
+Thread attributes are utilized only at thread creation time.
+
+@table @b
+@item stack address
+is the address of the optionally user specified stack area for this thread.
+If this value is NULL, then RTEMS allocates the memory for the thread stack 
+from the RTEMS Workspace Area.  Otherwise, this is the user specified
+address for the memory to be used for the thread's stack.  Each thread must
+have a distinct stack area.  Each processor family has different alignment
+rules which should be followed.
+
+@item stack size
+is the minimum desired size for this thread's stack area.
+If the size of this area as specified by the stack size attribute 
+is smaller than the minimum for this processor family and the stack 
+is not user specified, then RTEMS will automatically allocate a 
+stack of the minimum size for this processor family.
+
+@item contention scope
+specifies the scheduling contention scope.  RTEMS only supports the
+PTHREAD_SCOPE_PROCESS scheduling contention scope.
+
+@item scheduling inheritance
+specifies whether a user specified or the scheduling policy and 
+parameters of the currently executing thread are to be used.  When 
+this is PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED, then the scheduling policy and 
+parameters of the currently executing thread are inherited by 
+the newly created thread.
+
+@item scheduling policy and parameters
+specify the manner in which the thread will contend for the processor.
+The scheduling parameters are interpreted based on the specified policy.
+All policies utilize the thread priority parameter.

+@section RTEMS FTP Site Organization
+
+RTEMS is distributed only via anonymous ftp.
+
+This section will discuss how to navigate the RTEMS
+ftp site and unarchive the files in the RTEMS and GNU package
+distributions.  All example commands will be given in a shell
+independent fashion unless otherwise noted.
+
+Throughout the rest of this manual
+<RTEMS_distribution> will be used as the parent of components
+within the RTEMS distribution.  For persons using the ftp
+distribution found on the primary ftp site for RTEMS,
+<RTEMS_distribution> is
+ftp://ftp.OARcorp.com/oarcorp/rtems/@value{RTEMS-RELEASE}.
+
+The archive files for RTEMS Release @value{RTEMS-RELEASE} are found
+under the directory <RTEMS_distribution>.  This directory
+contains the files which comprise this relase as well as any
+patches which may be required for other tools.
+
+The complete source code and documentation set for
+the C language implementation of RTEMS is provided.
+
+Documentation other than this on-line version is available to
+OAR support customers.  Please contact OAR for more information.

+@end ifinfo
+@section Unarchiving the RTEMS and GNU Components
+
+Many of the components of the RTEMS release are
+"tarred, zipped" files and have the .tar.gz or .tgz extension.
+The GNU zip package is required to unarchives these files on the
+RTEMS ftp site.  If this package is not installed, the source
+can be found in the files
+ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gzip-1.2.4.shar or
+ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gzip-1.2.4.tar.  It may be
+restored using a command similar to the following:
+
+@example
+@group
+tar xvf gzip-1.2.4.tar
+
+OR
+
+sh gzip-1.2.4.shar
+@end group
+@end example
+
+This will create a subdirectory gzip-1.2.4 in the
+current directory.  Please examine the files README and INSTALL
+and follow the instructions provided there.
+
+[Note: The GNU tools follow a standard packaging procedure
+They will unarchive into a directory based on the package name and version
+number.  For detailed instructions on compilation and
+installation of the GNU tools, please refer to the instructions for
+each GNU tool.]
+
+Files which have been "tarred, zipped" (i.e.  .tar.gz
+or .tgz extension) may be unarchived with a command similar to
+one of the following:
+
+@example
+@group
+gzcat <file>.tgz | tar xvof -
+
+OR
+
+gunzip -c <file>.tgz | tar xvof -
+
+OR
+
+gtar xzvf <file>.tgz
+@end group
+@end example
+
+NOTE: gunzip -c is equivalent to gzcat, while gtar is GNU tar.
+
+Given that the necessary utility programs are
+installed, any of the above commands will extract the contents
+of <file>.tar.gz into the current directory.  All of the RTEMS
+components will be extracted into the subdirectory rtems-@value{RTEMS-RELEASE}.
+To view the contents of a component without restoring any files,
+use a command similar to the following:
+
+@example
+@group
+gzcat <file>.tgz | tar tvf -
+@end group
+@end example

+@section Installing a Cross-Development GNU Toolset
+
+This sections describes how to build and install the
+FSF GNU tools for use as a cross-compilation system.  These
+tools are used by the RTEMS developers.  Every effort has been
+made to make these instructions accurate and complete.  However,
+it is recommended that the individual doing the installation
+read the appropriate installation notes for each of the tools in
+the cross toolset.  This will help insure that there are no
+special requirements for a particular host.
+
+If the host and target processors are the same, then
+it may be possible to use the host development tools.  An
+example of this scenario is using a SPARC based workstation
+to develop an RTEMS application for the SPARC processor.  Although
+the native toolset is useable in this scenario, it is ultimately
+more desirable to build a toolset specifically for the embedded environment.
+
+Instructions for building a cross environment using the GNU
+tools is provided in the crossgcc FAQ available from ftp.cygnus.com
+in /pub/embedded/crossgcc.  It is recommended that the user following
+these instructions.
+
+After the cross development toolset has been built
+and installed, it will be necessary to modify the environment of
+each RTEMS application developer to reflect at least the path of
+the newly installed cross development toolset.
+
+The documentation for the FSF GNU and Cygnus tools is
+formatted using TeX.  The RTEMS developers use TeX 3.14t3 to
+format the manuals for their own use.  This document does not
+contain instructions on the acquisition or installation of TeX
+and supporting tools.
+
+NOTE: For "UNIX" processors, the native compiler binary utilities
+should be used.

+@subsection GNU Development Tools
+
+Numerous GNU tools are used in the RTEMS Development
+Environment including C and Ada compilers, the GNU make program,
+GNU m4, the GNU assembler and binary utilities (linker,
+librarian, etc.), GNU tar, GNU zip, and the GNU debugger.  These
+tools are distributed in source form and are all licensed under
+the GNU Public License which allows for unrestricted
+distribution under the condition that source code always be
+available.  The Free Software Foundation is officially the
+originator of most of the GNU tools although many individuals
+have contributed to the GNU projects.  In keeping with the
+spirit of the GPL,  most of the time the GNU tools are
+distributed as source code without executables.  It is the
+responsibility of the local site to install each tool.  Numerous
+organizations and individuals supply executables for the GNU
+tools.  All are required by the terms of the GPL to also make
+the source code available to the end user.
+
+The primary ftp site for the FSF GNU tools is
+prep.ai.mit.edu (18.71.0.38) in the /pub/gnu directory.  These
+tools are mirrored on numerous ftp sites.
+
+Intel maintains a toolset for their i960 processor
+family based on the GNU tools referred to as GNU/960.  The
+source code for this toolset is available from ftp.intel.com
+(143.185.65.2).  [NOTE: The GNU/960 toolset generally includes
+an older version of GCC than that available from the FSF.  When
+the FSF version of GNU C is significantly newer than that in the
+GNU/960 release, the RTEMS developers replace the GCC in the
+GNU/960 toolset with the FSF release.]
+
+Cygnus maintains an ftp site -- ftp.cygnus.com
+(205.180.83.42) -- which contains a source code which appeals to
+embedded developers.  Of especial interest on this site are the
+directories /pub/newlib and /pub/embedded.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node ANSI C Libraries, GNU C Library, GNU Development Tools, Introduction Supporting Tools
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection ANSI C Libraries
+
+This section discusses the following freely
+distributable ANSI C Libraries:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item GNU C Library, and
+
+@item Cygnus NEWLIB
+@end itemize
+
+No C Library is included in the standard RTEMS
+distribution.  It is the responsibility of the user to obtain
+and install a C Library separately.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node GNU C Library, Cygnus NEWLIB C Library, ANSI C Libraries, Introduction Supporting Tools
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection GNU C Library
+
+The GNU C Library is a robust and well-documented C
+Library which is distributed under the terms of the Library GNU
+Public License (LGPL).  This library was not designed for use in
+real-time, embedded systems and the resource requirements of
+some of the routines in this library are an obvious indication
+of this.  Additionally, this library does not have support for
+reentrancy in the sense that each task in a multitasking system
+could safely invoke every routine in the library.  Finally, the
+distribution terms of the LGPL are considered undesirable by
+many embedded systems developers.  However, the GNU C Library is
+very complete and is compliant with as many standards as
+possible.  Because of this, it may be the only choice for many
+developers.
+
+There is currently no RTEMS support for the GNU C Library.
+
+The primary ftp site for this library is
+prep.ai.mit.edu (18.71.0.38).
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Cygnus NEWLIB C Library, Introduction Documentation, GNU C Library, Introduction Supporting Tools
+@end ifinfo
+@subsection Cygnus NEWLIB C Library
+
+The Cygnus NEWLIB C Library was specifically designed
+for real-time embedded systems.  It is a small, reasonably
+documented Library with support for reentrancy.  This library is
+a collection of freely distributable and public domain source
+code and is freely distributable with as few restrictions as
+possible placed on the end user.
+
+The RTEMS specific support code for NEWLIB has been
+submitted to the NEWLIB maintainers and should be included in a
+future release.  Until that time, it is recommended that the
+beta version of NEWLIB with RTEMS support added be used by the
+application developer.  The beta version of NEWLIB with RTEMS
+specific support is ONLY available on the OAR ftp site.  This
+beta version is strictly tied to a particular RTEMS release.
+
+The primary ftp site for this library is ftp.cygnus.com (205.180.83.42).

+A compiler's calling convention is of importance when

+@section Processor Background
+
+The PA-RISC architecture supports a simple yet
+effective call and return mechanism for subroutine calls where
+the caller and callee are both in the same address space.  The
+compiler will not automatically generate subroutine calls which
+cross address spaces.  A subroutine is invoked via the branch
+and link (bl) or the branch and link register (blr).  These
+instructions save the return address in a caller specified
+register.  By convention, the return address is saved in r2.
+The callee is responsible for maintaining the return address so
+it can return to the correct address.  The branch vectored (bv)
+instruction is used to branch to the return address and thus
+return from the subroutine to the caller.  It is is important to
+note that the PA-RISC subroutine call and return mechanism does
+not automatically save or restore any registers.  It is the
+responsibility of the high-level language compiler to define the
+register preservation and usage convention.

+@section Calling Mechanism
+
+All RTEMS directives are invoked as standard
+subroutines via a bl or a blr instruction with the return address
+assumed to be in r2 and return to the user application via the
+bv instruction.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Calling Conventions Register Usage, Calling Conventions Parameter Passing, Calling Conventions Calling Mechanism, Calling Conventions
+@end ifinfo
+@section Register Usage
+
+As discussed above, the bl and blr instructions do
+not automatically save any registers.  RTEMS uses the registers
+r1, r19 - r26, and r31 as scratch registers.  The PA-RISC
+calling convention specifies that the first four (4) arguments
+to subroutines are passed in registers r23 - r26.  After the
+arguments have been used, the contents of these registers may be
+altered.  Register r31 is the millicode scratch register.
+Millicode is the set of routines which support high-level
+languages on the PA-RISC by providing routines which are either
+too complex or too long for the compiler to generate inline code
+when these operations are needed.  For example, indirect calls
+utilize a millicode routine.  The scratch registers are not
+preserved by RTEMS directives therefore, the contents of these
+registers should not be assumed upon return from any RTEMS
+directive.
+
+Surprisingly, when using the GNU C compiler at least
+integer multiplies are performed using the floating point
+registers.  This is an important optimization because the
+PA-RISC does not have otherwise have hardware for multiplies.
+This has important ramifications in regards to the PA-RISC port
+of RTEMS.  On most processors, the floating point unit is
+ignored if the code only performs integer operations.  This
+makes it easy for the application developer to predict whether
+or not any particular task will require floating point
+operations.  This property is taken advantage of by RTEMS on
+other architectures to minimize the number of times the floating
+point context is saved and restored.  However, on the PA-RISC
+architecture, every task is implicitly a floating point task.
+Additionally the state of the floating point unit must be saved
+and restored as part of the interrupt processing because for all
+practical purposes it is impossible to avoid the use of the
+floating point registers.  It is unknown if the HP-UX C compiler
+shares this property.
+
+@itemize @code{ }
+@item @b{NOTE}: Later versions of the GNU C has a PA-RISC specific
+option to disable use of the floating point registers.  RTEMS
+currently assumes that this option is not turned on.  If the use
+of this option sets a built-in define, then it should be
+possible to modify the PA-RISC specific code such that all tasks
+are considered floating point only when this option is not used.

+@end ifinfo
+@section Parameter Passing
+
+RTEMS assumes that the first four (4) arguments are
+placed in the appropriate registers (r26, r25, r24, and r23)
+and, if needed, additional are placed on the current stack
+before the directive is invoked via the bl or blr instruction.
+The first argument is placed in r26, the second is placed in
+r25, and so forth.  The following pseudo-code illustrates the
+typical sequence used to call a RTEMS directive with three (3)
+arguments:
+
+
+@example
+set r24 to the third argument
+set r25 to the second argument
+set r26 to the first argument
+invoke directive
+@end example
+
+The stack on the PA-RISC grows upward -- i.e.
+"pushing" onto the stack results in the address in the stack
+pointer becoming numerically larger.  By convention, r27 is used
+as the stack pointer.  The standard stack frame consists of a
+minimum of sixty-four (64) bytes and is the responsibility of
+the callee to maintain.

+Microprocessors are generally classified into
+families with a variety of CPU models or implementations within
+that family.  Within a processor family, there is a high level
+of binary compatibility.  This family may be based on either an
+architectural specification or on maintaining compatibility with
+a popular processor.  Recent microprocessor families such as the
+SPARC or PA-RISC are based on an architectural specification
+which is independent or any particular CPU model or
+implementation.  Older families such as the M68xxx and the iX86
+evolved as the manufacturer strived to produce higher
+performance processor models which maintained binary
+compatibility with older models.
+
+RTEMS takes advantage of the similarity of the
+various models within a CPU family.  Although the models do vary
+in significant ways, the high level of compatibility makes it
+possible to share the bulk of the CPU dependent executive code
+across the entire family.  Each processor family supported by
+RTEMS has a list of features which vary between CPU models
+within a family.  For example, the most common model dependent
+feature regardless of CPU family is the presence or absence of a
+floating point unit or coprocessor.  When defining the list of
+features present on a particular CPU model, one simply notes
+that floating point hardware is or is not present and defines a
+single constant appropriately.  Conditional compilation is
+utilized to include the appropriate source code for this CPU
+model's feature set.  It is important to note that this means
+that RTEMS is thus compiled using the appropriate feature set
+and compilation flags optimal for this CPU model used.  The
+alternative would be to generate a binary which would execute on
+all family members using only the features which were always
+present.
+
+This chapter presents the set of features which vary
+across PA-RISC implementations and are of importance to RTEMS.
+The set of CPU model feature macros are defined in the file

+model defined on the compilation command line.

+
+@item predriver_hook
+is the address of the user provided

+@section Introduction
+
+Different types of processors respond to the
+occurence of an interrupt in their own unique fashion. In
+addition, each processor type provides a control mechanism to
+allow for the proper handling of an interrupt.  The processor
+dependent response to the interrupt modifies the current
+execution state and results in a change in the execution stream.
+Most processors require that an interrupt handler utilize some
+special control mechanisms to return to the normal processing
+stream.  Although RTEMS hides many of the processor dependent
+details of interrupt processing, it is important to understand
+how the RTEMS interrupt manager is mapped onto the processor's
+unique architecture. Discussed in this chapter are the PA-RISC's
+interrupt response and control mechanisms as they pertain to
+RTEMS.

+@end ifinfo
+@section Vectoring of Interrupt Handler
+
+Upon receipt of an interrupt the PA-RISC
+automatically performs the following actions:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item The PSW (Program Status Word) is saved in the IPSW
+(Interrupt Program Status Word).
+
+@item The current privilege level is set to 0.
+
+@item The following defined bits in the PSW are set:
+
+@item E bit is set to the default endian bit
+
+@item M bit is set to 1 if the interrupt is a high-priority
+machine check and 0 otherwise
+
+@item Q bit is set to zero thuse freezing the IIA
+(Instruction Address) queues
+
+@item C and D bits are set to zero thus disabling all
+protection and translation.
+
+@item I bit is set to zero this disabling all external,
+powerfail, and low-priority machine check interrupts.
+
+@item All others bits are set to zero.
+
+@item General purpose registers r1, r8, r9, r16, r17, r24, and
+r25 are copied to the shadow registers.
+
+@item Execution begins at the address given by the formula:
+Interruption Vector Address + (32 * interrupt vector number).
+@end itemize
+
+Once the processor has completed the actions it is is

+
+@item saves all necessary interrupt state information
+
+@item saves all floating point registers
+
+@item saves all integer registers
+
+@item switches the current stack to the interrupt stack
+
+@item dispatches to the appropriate user provided interrupt
+service routine (ISR).  If the ISR was installed with the
+interrupt_catch directive, then it will be executed at this.

+The PA-RISC architecture does not alter the stack
+while processing interrupts.  However, RTEMS does save
+information on the stack as part of processing an interrupt.
+This following shows the format of the Interrupt Stack Frame for

+@end ifinfo
+@section External Interrupts and Traps
+
+In addition to the thirty-two unique interrupt
+sources supported by the PA-RISC architecture, RTEMS also
+supports the installation of handlers for each of the thirty-two
+external interrupts supported by the PA-RISC architecture.
+Except for interrupt vector 4, each of the interrupt vectors 0
+through 31 may be associated with a user-provided interrupt
+handler.  Interrupt vector 4 is used for external interrupts.
+When an external interrupt occurs, the RTEMS external interrupt
+handler is invoked and the actual interrupt source is indicated
+by status bits in the EIR (External Interrupt Request) register.
+The RTEMS external interrupt handler (or interrupt vector four)
+examines the EIR to determine which interrupt source requires
+servicing.
+
+RTEMS supports sixty-four interrupt vectors for the
+PA-RISC.  Vectors 0 through 31 map to the normal interrupt
+sources while RTEMS interrupt vectors 32 through 63 are directly
+associated with the external interrupt sources indicated by bits
+0 through 31 in the EIR.
+
+The exact set of interrupt sources which are checked
+for by the RTEMS external interrupt handler and the order in
+which they are checked are configured by the user in the CPU
+Configuration Table.  If an external interrupt occurs which does
+not have a handler configured, then the spurious interrupt
+handler will be invoked.  The spurious interrupt handler may
+also be specifiec by the user in the CPU Configuration Table.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Interrupt Processing Interrupt Levels, Interrupt Processing Disabling of Interrupts by RTEMS, Interrupt Processing External Interrupts and Traps, Interrupt Processing
+@end ifinfo
+@section Interrupt Levels
+
+Two levels (enabled and disabled) of interrupt
+priorities are supported by the PA-RISC architecture.  Level
+zero (0) indicates that interrupts are fully enabled (i.e. the I
+bit of the PSW is 1).  Level one (1) indicates that interrupts
+are disabled (i.e. the I bit of the PSW is 0).  Thirty-two
+independent sources of external interrupts are supported by the
+PA-RISC architecture.  Each of these interrupts sources may be
+individually enabled or disabled.  When processor interrupts are
+disabled, all sources of external interrupts are ignored.  When
+processor interrupts are enabled, the EIR (External Interrupt
+Request) register is used to determine which sources are
+currently allowed to generate interrupts.
+
+Although RTEMS supports 256 interrupt levels, the
+PA-RISC architecture only supports two.  RTEMS interrupt level 0
+indicates that interrupts are enabled and level 1 indicates that
+interrupts are disabled.  All other RTEMS interrupt levels are
+undefined and their behavior is unpredictable.
+

+@node Interrupt Processing Disabling of Interrupts by RTEMS, Default Fatal Error Processing, Interrupt Processing Interrupt Levels, Interrupt Processing
+@end ifinfo
+@section Disabling of Interrupts by RTEMS
+
+During the execution of directive calls, critical
+sections of code may be executed.  When these sections are
+encountered, RTEMS disables external interrupts by setting the I
+bit in the PSW to 0 before the execution of this section and
+restores them to the previous level upon completion of the
+section.  RTEMS has been optimized to insure that interrupts are
+disabled for less than XXX instructions when compiled with GNU
+CC at optimization level 4.  The exact execution time will vary
+based on the based on the processor implementation, amount of
+cache, the number of wait states for primary memory, and
+processor speed present on the target board.
+
+Non-maskable interrupts (NMI) such as high-priority
+machine checks cannot be disabled, and ISRs which execute at
+this level MUST NEVER issue RTEMS system calls.  If a directive
+is invoked, unpredictable results may occur due to the inability
+of RTEMS to protect its critical sections.  However, ISRs that
+make no system calls may safely execute as non-maskable
+interrupts.

+@section Introduction
+
+Different types of processors respond to the
+occurence of an interrupt in their own unique fashion. In
+addition, each processor type provides a control mechanism to
+allow for the proper handling of an interrupt.  The processor
+dependent response to the interrupt modifies the current
+execution state and results in a change in the execution stream.
+Most processors require that an interrupt handler utilize some
+special control mechanisms to return to the normal processing
+stream.  Although RTEMS hides many of the processor dependent
+details of interrupt processing, it is important to understand
+how the RTEMS interrupt manager is mapped onto the processor's
+unique architecture. Discussed in this chapter are the PA-RISC's
+interrupt response and control mechanisms as they pertain to
+RTEMS.

+@section Vectoring of Interrupt Handler
+
+Upon receipt of an interrupt the PA-RISC
+automatically performs the following actions:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item The PSW (Program Status Word) is saved in the IPSW
+(Interrupt Program Status Word).
+
+@item The current privilege level is set to 0.
+
+@item The following defined bits in the PSW are set:
+
+@item E bit is set to the default endian bit
+
+@item M bit is set to 1 if the interrupt is a high-priority
+machine check and 0 otherwise
+
+@item Q bit is set to zero thuse freezing the IIA
+(Instruction Address) queues
+
+@item C and D bits are set to zero thus disabling all
+protection and translation.
+
+@item I bit is set to zero this disabling all external,
+powerfail, and low-priority machine check interrupts.
+
+@item All others bits are set to zero.
+
+@item General purpose registers r1, r8, r9, r16, r17, r24, and
+r25 are copied to the shadow registers.
+
+@item Execution begins at the address given by the formula:
+Interruption Vector Address + (32 * interrupt vector number).

+A processor may support any combination of memory
+models ranging from pure physical addressing to complex demand

+model which ranges contiguously over the processor's allowable

+@section Flat Memory Model
+
+RTEMS supports applications in which the application
+and the executive execute within a single thirty-two bit address
+space.  Thus RTEMS and the application share a common four
+gigabyte address space within a single space.  The PA-RISC
+automatically converts every address from a logical to a
+physical address each time it is used.  The PA-RISC uses
+information provided in the page table to perform this
+translation.  The following protection levels are assumed:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item a single code segment at protection level (0) which
+contains all application and executive code.
+
+@item a single data segment at protection level zero (0) which
+contains all application and executive data.
+@end itemize
+
+The PA-RISC space registers and associated stack --
+including the stack pointer r27 -- must be initialized when the
+initialize_executive directive is invoked.  RTEMS treats the
+space registers as system resources shared by all tasks and does
+not modify or context switch them.
+
+This memory model supports a flat 32-bit address
+space with addresses ranging from 0x00000000 to 0xFFFFFFFF (4
+gigabytes).  Each address is represented by a 32-bit value and
+memory is addressable.  The address may be used to reference a
+single byte, half-word (2-bytes), or word (4 bytes).
+
+RTEMS does not require that logical addresses map
+directly to physical addresses, although it is desirable in many
+applications to do so.  RTEMS does not need any additional
+information when physical addresses do not map directly to
+physical addresses.  By not requiring that logical addresses map
+directly to physical addresses, the memory space of an RTEMS
+space can be separated from that of a ROM monitor.  For example,
+a ROM monitor may load application programs into a separate
+logical address space from itself.
+
+RTEMS assumes that the space registers contain the
+selector for the single data segment when a directive is
+invoked.   This assumption is especially important when
+developing interrupt service routines.

+@section Interrupt Latency
+
+The maximum period with traps disabled or the
+processor interrupt level set to it's highest value inside RTEMS
+is less than RTEMS_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD
+microseconds including the instructions which
+disable and re-enable interrupts.  The time required for the
+HP-7100 to vector an interrupt and for the RTEMS entry overhead
+before invoking the user's trap handler are a total of
+RTEMS_INTR_ENTRY_RETURNS_TO_PREEMPTING_TASK
+microseconds.  These combine to yield a worst case interrupt
+latency of less than RTEMS_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD +
+RTEMS_INTR_ENTRY_RETURNS_TO_PREEMPTING_TASK microseconds at 15 Mhz.
+[NOTE:  The maximum period with interrupts disabled was last
+determined for Release RTEMS_RELEASE_FOR_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD.]
+
+It should be noted again that the maximum period with
+interrupts disabled within RTEMS for the HP-7100 is hand calculated.

+@end ifinfo
+@section Context Switch
+
+The RTEMS processor context switch time is RTEMS_NO_FP_CONTEXTS
+microsections for the HP-7100 when no floating point context
+switch is saved or restored.  Saving and restoring the floating
+point context adds additional time to the context
+switch procedure.  Additional execution time is required when a
+TASK_SWITCH user extension is configured.  The use of the
+TASK_SWITCH extension is application dependent.  Thus, its
+execution time is not considered part of the raw context switch
+time.
+
+Since RTEMS was designed specifically for embedded
+missile applications which are floating point intensive, the
+executive is optimized to avoid unnecessarily saving and
+restoring the state of the numeric coprocessor.  On many
+processors, the state of the numeric coprocessor is only saved
+when an FLOATING_POINT task is dispatched and that task was not
+the last task to utilize the coprocessor.  In a system with only
+one FLOATING_POINT task, the state of the numeric coprocessor
+will never be saved or restored.  When the first FLOATING_POINT
+task is dispatched, RTEMS does not need to save the current
+state of the numeric coprocessor.  As discussed in the Register
+Usage section, on the HP-7100 the every task is considered to be
+floating point registers and , as a rsule, every context switch
+involves saving and restoring the state of the floating point
+unit.
+
+The following table summarizes the context switch
+times for the HP-7100 processor:

+
+An RTEMS based application is initiated when the i386
+processor is reset.  When the i386 is reset,
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item The EAX register is set to indicate the results of the
+processor's power-up self test.   If the self-test was not
+executed, the contents of this register are undefined.
+Otherwise, a non-zero value indicates the processor is faulty
+and a zero value indicates a successful self-test.
+
+@item The DX register holds a component identifier and
+revision level.  DH contains 3 to indicate an i386 component and
+DL contains a unique revision level indicator.
+
+@item Control register zero (CR0) is set such that the
+processor is in real mode with paging disabled.   Other portions
+of CR0 are used to indicate the presence of a numeric
+coprocessor.
+
+@item All bits in the extended flags register (EFLAG) which
+are not permanently set are cleared.  This inhibits all maskable
+interrupts.
+
+@item The Interrupt Descriptor Register (IDTR) is set to point
+at address zero.
+
+@item All segment registers are set to zero.
+
+@item The instruction pointer is set to 0x0000FFF0.   The
+first instruction executed after a reset is actually at
+0xFFFFFFF0 because the i386 asserts the upper twelve address
+until the first intersegment (FAR) JMP or CALL instruction.
+When a JMP or CALL is executed, the upper twelve address lines
+are lowered and the processor begins executing in the first
+megabyte of memory.

+@section Processor Initialization
+
+This initialization code is responsible for
+initializing all data structures required by the i386 in
+protected mode and for actually entering protected mode.  The
+i386 must be placed in protected mode and the segment registers
+and associated selectors must be initialized before the
+initialize_executive directive is invoked.
+
+The initialization code is responsible for
+initializing the Global Descriptor Table such that the i386 is
+in the thirty-two bit flat memory model with paging disabled.
+In this mode, the i386 automatically converts every address from
+a logical to a physical address each time it is used.  For more
+information on the memory model used by RTEMS, please refer to
+the Memory Model chapter in this document.
+
+If the application requires that the IDTR be some
+value besides zero, then it should set it to the required value
+at this point.  All tasks share the same i386 IDTR value.
+Because interrupts are enabled automatically by RTEMS as part of
+the initialize_executive directive, the IDTR MUST be set
+properly before this directive is invoked to insure correct
+interrupt vectoring.  If processor caching is to be utilized,
+then it should be enabled during the reset application
+initialization code.  The reset code which is executed before
+the call to initialize_executive has the following requirements:

+
+Each high-level language compiler generates
+subroutine entry and exit code based upon a set of rules known
+as the compiler's calling convention.   These rules address the
+following issues:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item register preservation and usage
+
+@item parameter passing
+
+@item call and return mechanism
+@end itemize
+
+A compiler's calling convention is of importance when
+interfacing to subroutines written in another language either
+assembly or high-level.  Even when the high-level language and
+target processor are the same, different compilers may use
+different calling conventions.  As a result, calling conventions
+are both processor and compiler dependent.

+@section Processor Background
+
+The i386 architecture supports a simple yet effective
+call and return mechanism.  A subroutine is invoked via the call
+(call) instruction.  This instruction pushes the return address
+on the stack.  The return from subroutine (ret) instruction pops
+the return address off the current stack and transfers control
+to that instruction.  It is is important to note that the i386
+call and return mechanism does not automatically save or restore
+any registers.  It is the responsibility of the high-level
+language compiler to define the register preservation and usage
+convention.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Calling Conventions Calling Mechanism, Calling Conventions Register Usage, Calling Conventions Processor Background, Calling Conventions
+@end ifinfo
+@section Calling Mechanism
+
+All RTEMS directives are invoked using a call
+instruction and return to the user application via the ret
+instruction.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Calling Conventions Register Usage, Calling Conventions Parameter Passing, Calling Conventions Calling Mechanism, Calling Conventions
+@end ifinfo
+@section Register Usage
+
+As discussed above, the call instruction does not
+automatically save any registers.  RTEMS uses the registers EAX,
+ECX, and EDX as scratch registers.  These registers are not
+preserved by RTEMS directives therefore, the contents of these
+registers should not be assumed upon return from any RTEMS
+directive.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Calling Conventions Parameter Passing, Calling Conventions User-Provided Routines, Calling Conventions Register Usage, Calling Conventions
+@end ifinfo
+@section Parameter Passing
+
+RTEMS assumes that arguments are placed on the
+current stack before the directive is invoked via the call
+instruction.  The first argument is assumed to be closest to the
+return address on the stack.  This means that the first argument
+of the C calling sequence is pushed last.  The following
+pseudo-code illustrates the typical sequence used to call a
+RTEMS directive with three (3) arguments:
+
+@example
+push third argument
+push second argument
+push first argument
+invoke directive
+remove arguments from the stack
+@end example
+
+The arguments to RTEMS are typically pushed onto the
+stack using a push instruction.  These arguments must be removed
+from the stack after control is returned to the caller.  This
+removal is typically accomplished by adding the size of the
+argument list in bytes to the stack pointer.

+@end ifinfo
+@section User-Provided Routines
+
+All user-provided routines invoked by RTEMS, such as
+user extensions, device drivers, and MPCI routines, must also
+adhere to these calling conventions.

+@section Introduction
+
+Microprocessors are generally classified into
+families with a variety of CPU models or implementations within
+that family.  Within a processor family, there is a high level
+of binary compatibility.  This family may be based on either an
+architectural specification or on maintaining compatibility with
+a popular processor.  Recent microprocessor families such as the
+SPARC or PA-RISC are based on an architectural specification
+which is independent or any particular CPU model or
+implementation.  Older families such as the M68xxx and the iX86
+evolved as the manufacturer strived to produce higher
+performance processor models which maintained binary
+compatibility with older models.
+
+RTEMS takes advantage of the similarity of the
+various models within a CPU family.  Although the models do vary
+in significant ways, the high level of compatibility makes it
+possible to share the bulk of the CPU dependent executive code
+across the entire family.  Each processor family supported by
+RTEMS has a list of features which vary between CPU models
+within a family.  For example, the most common model dependent
+feature regardless of CPU family is the presence or absence of a
+floating point unit or coprocessor.  When defining the list of
+features present on a particular CPU model, one simply notes
+that floating point hardware is or is not present and defines a
+single constant appropriately.  Conditional compilation is
+utilized to include the appropriate source code for this CPU
+model's feature set.  It is important to note that this means
+that RTEMS is thus compiled using the appropriate feature set
+and compilation flags optimal for this CPU model used.  The
+alternative would be to generate a binary which would execute on
+all family members using only the features which were always
+present.
+
+This chapter presents the set of features which vary
+across i386 implementations and are of importance to RTEMS.
+The set of CPU model feature macros are defined in the file
+c/src/exec/score/cpu/i386/i386.h based upon the particular CPU
+model defined on the compilation command line.

+@section Introduction
+
+Different types of processors respond to the
+occurrence of an interrupt in their own unique fashion. In
+addition, each processor type provides a control mechanism to
+allow the proper handling of an interrupt.  The processor
+dependent response to the interrupt modifies the execution state
+and results in the modification of the execution stream. This
+modification usually requires that an interrupt handler utilize
+the provided control mechanisms to return to the normal
+processing stream.  Although RTEMS hides many of the processor
+dependent details of interrupt processing, it is important to
+understand how the RTEMS interrupt manager is mapped onto the
+processor's unique architecture. Discussed in this chapter are
+the the processor's response and control mechanisms as they
+pertain to RTEMS.

+@section Vectoring of Interrupt Handler
+
+Although the i386 supports multiple privilege levels,
+RTEMS and all user software executes at privilege level 0.  This
+decision was made by the RTEMS designers to enhance
+compatibility with processors which do not provide sophisticated
+protection facilities like those of the i386.  This decision
+greatly simplifies the discussion of i386 processing, as one
+need only consider interrupts without privilege transitions.
+
+Upon receipt of an interrupt  the i386 automatically
+performs the following actions:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item pushes the EFLAGS register
+
+@item pushes the far address of the interrupted instruction

+@section Interrupt Levels
+
+Although RTEMS supports 256 interrupt levels, the
+i386 only supports two -- enabled and disabled.  Interrupts are
+enabled when the interrupt-enable flag (IF) in the extended
+flags (EFLAGS) is set.  Conversely, interrupt processing is
+inhibited when the IF is cleared.  During a non-maskable
+interrupt, all other interrupts, including other non-maskable
+ones, are inhibited.
+
+RTEMS interrupt levels 0 and 1 such that level zero
+(0) indicates that interrupts are fully enabled and level one
+that interrupts are disabled.  All other RTEMS interrupt levels
+are undefined and their behavior is unpredictable.

+@node Interrupt Processing Disabling of Interrupts by RTEMS, Interrupt Processing Interrupt Stack, Interrupt Processing Interrupt Levels, Interrupt Processing
+@end ifinfo
+@section Disabling of Interrupts by RTEMS
+
+During the execution of directive calls, critical
+sections of code may be executed.  When these sections are
+encountered, RTEMS disables interrupts before the execution of
+this section and restores them to the previous level upon
+completion of the section.  RTEMS has been optimized to insure
+that interrupts are disabled for less than RTEMS_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD
+microseconds on a RTEMS_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD_MHZ Mhz i386 with zero
+wait states.  These numbers will vary based the number of wait states
+and processor speed present on the target board.   [NOTE:  The maximum
+period with interrupts disabled within RTEMS was last calculated for
+Release RTEMS_RELEASE_FOR_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD.]
+
+Non-maskable interrupts (NMI) cannot be disabled, and
+ISRs which execute at this level MUST NEVER issue RTEMS system
+calls.  If a directive is invoked, unpredictable results may
+occur due to the inability of RTEMS to protect its critical
+sections.  However, ISRs that make no system calls may safely
+execute as non-maskable interrupts.

+@section Interrupt Stack
+
+The i386 family does not support a dedicated hardware
+interrupt stack.  On this processor, RTEMS allocates and manages
+a dedicated interrupt stack.  As part of vectoring a non-nested
+interrupt service routine, RTEMS switches from the stack of the
+interrupted task to a dedicated interrupt stack.  When a
+non-nested interrupt returns, RTEMS switches back to the stack
+of the interrupted stack.  The current stack pointer is not
+altered by RTEMS on nested interrupt.
+
+Without a dedicated interrupt stack, every task in
+the system MUST have enough stack space to accommodate the worst
+case stack usage of that particular task and the interrupt
+service routines COMBINED.  By supporting a dedicated interrupt
+stack, RTEMS significantly lowers the stack requirements for
+each task.
+
+RTEMS allocates the dedicated interrupt stack from
+the Workspace Area.  The amount of memory allocated for the
+interrupt stack is determined by the interrupt_stack_size field
+in the CPU Configuration Table.

+
+A processor may support any combination of memory
+models ranging from pure physical addressing to complex demand
+paged virtual memory systems.  RTEMS supports a flat memory
+model which ranges contiguously over the processor's allowable
+address space.  RTEMS does not support segmentation or virtual
+memory of any kind.  The appropriate memory model for RTEMS
+provided by the targeted processor and related characteristics
+of that model are described in this chapter.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Memory Model Flat Memory Model, Interrupt Processing, Memory Model Introduction, Memory Model
+@end ifinfo
+@section Flat Memory Model
+
+RTEMS supports the i386 protected mode, flat memory
+model with paging disabled.  In this mode, the i386
+automatically converts every address from a logical to a
+physical address each time it is used.  The i386 uses
+information provided in the segment registers and the Global
+Descriptor Table to convert these addresses.  RTEMS assumes the
+existence of the following segments:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item a single code segment at protection level (0) which
+contains all application and executive code.
+
+@item a single data segment at protection level zero (0) which
+contains all application and executive data.
+@end itemize
+
+The i386 segment registers and associated selectors
+must be initialized when the initialize_executive directive is
+invoked.  RTEMS treats the segment registers as system registers
+and does not modify or context switch them.
+
+This i386 memory model supports a flat 32-bit address
+space with addresses ranging from 0x00000000 to 0xFFFFFFFF (4
+gigabytes).  Each address is represented by a 32-bit value and
+is byte addressable.  The address may be used to reference a
+single byte, half-word (2-bytes), or word (4 bytes).
+
+RTEMS does not require that logical addresses map
+directly to physical addresses, although it is desirable in many
+applications to do so.  If logical and physical addresses are
+not the same, then an additional selector will be required so
+RTEMS can access the Interrupt Descriptor Table to install
+interrupt service routines.  The selector number of this segment
+is provided to RTEMS in the CPU Dependent Information Table.
+
+By not requiring that logical addresses map directly
+to physical addresses, the memory space of an RTEMS application
+can be separated from that of a ROM monitor.  For example, on
+the Force Computers CPU386, the ROM monitor loads application
+programs into a logical address space where logical address
+0x00000000 corresponds to physical address 0x0002000.  On this
+board, RTEMS and the application use virtual addresses which do
+not map to physical addresses.
+
+RTEMS assumes that the DS and ES registers contain
+the selector for the single data segment when a directive is
+invoked.   This assumption is especially important when
+developing interrupt service routines.

+
+The i386 segment registers and associated selectors
+must be initialized when the initialize_executive directive is
+invoked.  RTEMS treats the segment registers as system registers
+and does not modify or context switch them.
+
+This i386 memory model supports a flat 32-bit address
+space with addresses ranging from 0x00000000 to 0xFFFFFFFF (4
+gigabytes).  Each address is represented by a 32-bit value and
+is byte addressable.  The address may be used to reference a
+single byte, half-word (2-bytes), or word (4 bytes).
+
+RTEMS does not require that logical addresses map
+directly to physical addresses, although it is desirable in many
+applications to do so.  If logical and physical addresses are
+not the same, then an additional selector will be required so
+RTEMS can access the Interrupt Descriptor Table to install
+interrupt service routines.  The selector number of this segment
+is provided to RTEMS in the CPU Dependent Information Table.
+
+By not requiring that logical addresses map directly
+to physical addresses, the memory space of an RTEMS application
+can be separated from that of a ROM monitor.  For example, on
+the Force Computers CPU386, the ROM monitor loads application
+programs into a logical address space where logical address
+0x00000000 corresponds to physical address 0x0002000.  On this
+board, RTEMS and the application use virtual addresses which do
+not map to physical addresses.
+
+RTEMS assumes that the DS and ES registers contain
+the selector for the single data segment when a directive is
+invoked.   This assumption is especially important when
+developing interrupt service routines.

+The Real Time Executive for Multiprocessor Systems
+(RTEMS) is designed to be portable across multiple processor
+architectures.  However, the nature of real-time systems makes
+it essential that the application designer understand certain
+processor dependent implementation details.  These processor
+dependencies include calling convention, board support package
+issues, interrupt processing, exact RTEMS memory requirements,
+performance data, header files, and the assembly language
+interface to the executive.
+
+For information on the i386 processor, refer to the

+@section Hardware Platform
+
+All times reported except for the maximum period
+interrupts are disabled by RTEMS were measured using a Force
+Computers CPU386 board.  The CPU386 is a 16 Mhz board with zero
+wait state dynamic memory and an i80387 numeric coprocessor.
+One of the count-down timers provided by a Motorola MC68901 was
+used to measure elapsed time with one microsecond resolution.
+All sources of hardware interrupts are disabled, although the
+interrupt level of the i386 allows all interrupts.
+
+The maximum period interrupts are disabled was
+measured by summing the number of CPU cycles required by each
+assembly language instruction executed while interrupts were
+disabled.  Zero wait state memory was assumed.  The total CPU
+cycles executed with interrupts disabled, including the
+instructions to disable and enable interrupts, was divided by 16
+to simulate a i386 executing at 16 Mhz.

+@end ifinfo
+@section Interrupt Latency
+
+The maximum period with interrupts disabled within
+RTEMS is less than RTEMS_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD microseconds 
+including the instructions
+which disable and re-enable interrupts.  The time required for
+the i386 to generate an interrupt using the int instruction,
+vectoring to an interrupt handler, and for the RTEMS entry
+overhead before invoking the user's interrupt handler are a
+total of 12 microseconds.  These combine to yield a worst case
+interrupt latency of less 
+RTEMS_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD + RTEMS_INTR_ENTRY_RETURNS_TO_PREEMPTING_TASK 
+microseconds.  [NOTE:  The
+maximum period with interrupts disabled within RTEMS was last
+calculated for Release RTEMS_RELEASE_FOR_MAXIMUM_DISABLE_PERIOD.]
+
+It should be noted again that the maximum period with
+interrupts disabled within RTEMS is hand-timed.  The interrupt
+vector and entry overhead time was generated on the Force
+Computers CPU386 benchmark platform using the int instruction as
+the interrupt source.

+@end ifinfo
+@section Context Switch
+
+The RTEMS processor context switch time is RTEMS_NO_FP_CONTEXTS
+microseconds on the Force Computers CPU386 benchmark platform.
+This time represents the raw context switch time with no user
+extensions configured.  Additional execution time is required
+when a TASK_SWITCH user extension is configured.  The use of the
+TASK_SWITCH extension is application dependent.  Thus, its
+execution time is not considered part of the base context switch
+time.
+
+Since RTEMS was designed specifically for embedded
+missile applications which are floating point intensive, the
+executive is optimized to avoid unnecessarily saving and
+restoring the state of the numeric coprocessor.  The state of
+the numeric coprocessor is only saved when a FLOATING_POINT task
+is dispatched and that task was not the last task to utilize the
+coprocessor.  In a system with only one FLOATING_POINT task, the
+state of the numeric coprocessor will never be saved or
+restored.  When the first FLOATING_POINT task is dispatched,
+RTEMS does not need to save the current state of the numeric
+coprocessor.
+
+The exact amount of time required to save and restore
+floating point context is dependent on the state of the numeric
+coprocessor.  RTEMS places the coprocessor in the initialized
+state when a task is started or restarted.  Once the task has
+utilized the coprocessor, it is in the idle state when floating
+point instructions are not executing and the busy state when
+floating point instructions are executing.  The state of the
+coprocessor is task specific.
+
+The following table summarizes the context switch
+times for the Force Computers CPU386 benchmark platform:

+@section System Reset
+
+An RTEMS based application is initiated when the
+i960CA processor is reset.  When the i960CA is reset, the
+processor reads an Initial Memory Image (IMI) to establish its
+state.  The IMI consists of the Initialization Boot Record (IBR)
+and the Process Control Block (PRCB) from an Initial Memory
+Image (IMI) at location 0xFFFFFF00.  The IBR contains the
+initial bus configuration data, the address of the first
+instruction to execute after reset, the address of the PRCB, and
+the checksum used by the processor's self-test.
+
+@ifinfo
+@node Board Support Packages Processor Initialization, Processor Dependent Information Table, Board Support Packages System Reset, Board Support Packages
+@end ifinfo
+@section Processor Initialization
+
+The PRCB contains the base addresses for system data
+structures, and initial configuration information for the core
+and integrated peripherals.  In particular, the PRCB contains
+the initial contents of the Arithmetic Control (AC) Register as
+well as the base addresses of the Interrupt Vector Table, System
+Procedure Entry Table, Fault Entry Table, and the Control Table.
+In addition, the PRCB is used to configure the depth of the
+instruction and register caches and the actions when certain
+types of faults are encountered.
+
+The Process Controls (PC) Register is initialized to
+0xC01F2002 which sets the i960CA's interrupt level to 0x1F  (31
+decimal).  In addition, the Interrupt Mask (IMSK) Register
+(alternately referred to as Special Function Register 1 or sf1)
+is set to 0x00000000 to mask all external and DMA interrupt
+sources.  Thus, all interrupts are disabled when the first
+instruction is executed.

+For more information regarding the i960CA's data

+Manual.

+@section Introduction
+
+Each high-level language compiler generates
+subroutine entry and exit code based upon a set of rules known
+as the compiler's calling convention.   These rules address the
+following issues:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item register preservation and usage
+
+@item parameter passing
+
+@item call and return mechanism
+@end itemize
+
+A compiler's calling convention is of importance when
+interfacing to subroutines written in another language either
+assembly or high-level.  Even when the high-level language and
+target processor are the same, different compilers may use
+different calling conventions.  As a result, calling conventions
+are both processor and compiler dependent.

+@section Processor Background
+
+All members of the i960 architecture family support
+two methods for performing procedure calls: a RISC-style
+branch-and-link and an integrated call and return mechanism.
+
+On a branch-and-link, the processor branches to the
+invoked procedure and saves the return address in a register,
+G14.  Typically, the invoked procedure will not invoke another
+procedure and is referred to as a leaf procedure.  Many
+high-level language compilers for the i960 family recognize leaf
+procedures and automatically optimize them to utilize the
+branch-and-link mechanism.  Branch-and-link procedures are
+invoked using the bal and balx instructions and return control
+via the bx instruction.  By convention, G14 is zero when not in
+a leaf procedure.  It is the responsibility of the leaf
+procedure to clear G14 before returning.
+
+The integrated call and return mechanism also
+branches to the invoked procedure and saves the return address
+as did the branch and link mechanism. However, the important
+difference is that the call, callx, and calls inst
