Directly use "static inline" which is available in C99 and later. This brings
the RTEMS implementation closer to standard C.

If RTEMS_SMP is not defined, then Doxygen adds the comments intended for
conditional the lock member to the next member.
|
|
Ensure when both RTEMS_DEBUG is specified and pointers are large that
enough space is allocated to accomodate the Per_CPU_Control structure.
This changes the calculation to be more compositional instead of trying
to list out every permutation of options possible.

The per-CPU states which control the SMP system initialization were added quite
early during the SMP support development. Replace this initial implementation
with a simplified one. There is no longer a global SMP lock required which
serialized the state changes of all processors. The new implementation better
integrates with the per-CPU jobs.
|
|
Remove _CPU_SMP_Processor_event_broadcast() and
_CPU_SMP_Processor_event_receive(). These functions are hard to use since they
are subject to the lost wake up problem.

Add _Per_CPU_Is_ISR_in_progress() as an optimized version of
_ISR_Is_in_progress().

Change the _Per_CPU_Information declaration so that Doxygen can parse
it. This attribute placement is also in line with the _Alignas()
specifier of C11.

In uniprocessor and SMP configurations, the context switch extensions
were called during _Thread_Do_dispatch():
void _Thread_Do_dispatch( Per_CPU_Control *cpu_self, ISR_Level level )
{
Thread_Control *executing;
executing = cpu_self->executing;
...
do {
Thread_Control *heir;
heir = _Thread_Get_heir_and_make_it_executing( cpu_self );
...
_User_extensions_Thread_switch( executing, heir );
...
_Context_Switch( &executing->Registers, &heir->Registers );
...
} while ( cpu_self->dispatch_necessary );
...
}
In uniprocessor configurations, this is fine and the context switch
extensions are called for all thread switches except the very first
thread switch to the initialization thread. However, in SMP
configurations, the context switch may be invalidated and updated in the
low-level _Context_Switch() routine. See:
https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/c-user/symmetric_multiprocessing_services.html#thread-dispatch-details
In case such an update happens, a thread will execute on the processor
which was not seen in the previous call of the context switch
extensions. This can confuse for example event record consumers which
use events generated by a context switch extension.
Fixing this is not straight forward. The context switch extensions call
must move after the low-level context switch. The problem here is that
we may end up in _Thread_Handler(). Adding the context switch
extensions call to _Thread_Handler() covers now also the thread switch
to the initialization thread. We also have to save the last executing
thread (ancestor) of the processor. Registers or the stack cannot be
used for this purpose. We have to add it to the per-processor
information. Existing extensions may be affected, since now context
switch extensions use the stack of the heir thread. The stack checker
is affected by this.
Calling the thread switch extensions in the low-level context switch is
difficult since at this point an intermediate stack is used which is
only large enough to enable servicing of interrupts.

Optimize _Per_CPU_Get_index() in uniprocessor configurations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This enables re-use for other purposes, e.g. replacement for
SMP_MESSAGE_TEST.
|
|
Account for recent Per_CPU_Control structure member additions.
|
|
Use _SMP_Multicast_action() instead.
|
|
Use a FIFO list of jobs per processor to carry out the SMP multicast
action. Use a done indicator per job to reduce the bus traffic a bit.
|
|
The use of a hand crafted lock for Per_CPU_Control::Lock was necessary
at some point in the SMP support development, but it is no longer
justified.

Rename _SMP_Get_processor_count() in _SMP_Get_processor_maximum() to be
in line with the API level rtems_scheduler_get_processor_maximum().

Add low level event recording infrastructure for system and user
defined events. The infrastructure is able to record high frequency
events such as
* SMP lock acquire/release,
* interrupt entry/exit,
* thread switches,
* UMA zone allocate/free, and
* Ethernet packet input/output, etc.
It allows post-mortem analysis in fatal error handlers, e.g. the last
events are in the record buffer, the newest event overwrites the oldest
event. It is possible to detect record buffer overflows for consumers
that expect a continuous stream of events, e.g. to display the system
state in real-time.
The implementation supports high-end SMP machines (more than 1GHz
processor frequency, more than four processors).
Add a new API instead. The implementation uses per-processor data
structures and no atomic read-modify-write operations. It is uses
per-processor ring buffers to record the events.
The CPU counter is used to get the time of events. It is combined with
periodic uptime events to synchronize it with CLOCK_REALTIME.
The existing capture engine tries to solve this problem also, but its
performance is not good enough for high-end production systems. The
main issues are the variable-size buffers and the use of SMP locks for
synchronization. To fix this, the API would change significantly.

Statically initialize the interrupt stack area
(_Configuration_Interrupt_stack_area_begin,
_Configuration_Interrupt_stack_area_end, and
_Configuration_Interrupt_stack_size) via <rtems/confdefs.h>. Place the
interrupt stack area in a special section ".rtemsstack.interrupt". Let
BSPs define the optimal placement of this section in their linker
command files (e.g. in a fast on-chip memory).
This change makes makes the CPU_HAS_SOFTWARE_INTERRUPT_STACK and
CPU_HAS_HARDWARE_INTERRUPT_STACK CPU port defines superfluous, since the
low level initialization code has all information available via global
symbols.
This change makes the CPU_ALLOCATE_INTERRUPT_STACK CPU port define
superfluous, since the interrupt stacks are allocated by confdefs.h for
all architectures. There is no need for BSP-specific linker command
file magic (except the section placement), see previous ARM linker
command file as a bad example.
Remove _CPU_Install_interrupt_stack(). Initialize the hardware
interrupt stack in _CPU_Initialize() if necessary (e.g.
m68k_install_interrupt_stack()).
The optional _CPU_Interrupt_stack_setup() is still useful to customize
the registration of the interrupt stack area in the per-CPU information.
The initialization stack can reuse the interrupt stack, since
* interrupts are disabled during the sequential system initialization,
and
* the boot_card() function does not return.
This stack resuse saves memory.
Changes per architecture:
arm:
* Mostly replace the linker symbol based configuration of stacks with
the standard <rtems/confdefs.h> configuration via
CONFIGURE_INTERRUPT_STACK_SIZE. The size of the FIQ, ABT and UND
mode stack is still defined via linker symbols. These modes are
rarely used in applications and the default values provided by the
BSP should be sufficient in most cases.
* Remove the bsp_processor_count linker symbol hack used for the SMP
support. This is possible since the interrupt stack area is now
allocated by the linker and not allocated from the heap. This makes
some configure.ac stuff obsolete. Remove the now superfluous BSP
variants altcycv_devkit_smp and realview_pbx_a9_qemu_smp.
bfin:
* Remove unused magic linker command file allocation of initialization
stack. Maybe a previous linker command file copy and paste problem?
In the start.S the initialization stack is set to a hard coded value.
lm32, m32c, mips, nios2, riscv, sh, v850:
* Remove magic linker command file allocation of initialization stack.
Reuse interrupt stack for initialization stack.
m68k:
* Remove magic linker command file allocation of initialization stack.
Reuse interrupt stack for initialization stack.
powerpc:
* Remove magic linker command file allocation of initialization stack.
Reuse interrupt stack for initialization stack.
* Used dedicated memory region (REGION_RTEMSSTACK) for the interrupt
stack on BSPs using the shared linkcmds.base (replacement for
REGION_RWEXTRA).
sparc:
* Remove the hard coded initialization stack. Use the interrupt stack
for the initialization stack on the boot processor. This saves
16KiB of RAM.

Rename PER_CPU_WATCHDOG_MONOTONIC to PER_CPU_WATCHDOG_TICKS. Add new
PER_CPU_WATCHDOG_MONOTONIC which is based on the system uptime (measured
by timecounter).

A speciality of the RTEMS build system was the make preinstall step. It
copied header files from arbitrary locations into the build tree. The
header files were included via the -Bsome/build/tree/path GCC command
line option.
This has at least seven problems:
* The make preinstall step itself needs time and disk space.
* Errors in header files show up in the build tree copy. This makes it
hard for editors to open the right file to fix the error.
* There is no clear relationship between source and build tree header
files. This makes an audit of the build process difficult.
* The visibility of all header files in the build tree makes it
difficult to enforce API barriers. For example it is discouraged to
use BSP-specifics in the cpukit.
* An introduction of a new build system is difficult.
* Include paths specified by the -B option are system headers. This
may suppress warnings.
* The parallel build had sporadic failures on some hosts.
This patch removes the make preinstall step. All installed header
files are moved to dedicated include directories in the source tree.
Let @RTEMS_CPU@ be the target architecture, e.g. arm, powerpc, sparc,
etc. Let @RTEMS_BSP_FAMILIY@ be a BSP family base directory, e.g.
erc32, imx, qoriq, etc.
The new cpukit include directories are:
* cpukit/include
* cpukit/score/cpu/@RTEMS_CPU@/include
* cpukit/libnetworking
The new BSP include directories are:
* bsps/include
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/include
* bsps/@RTEMS_CPU@/@RTEMS_BSP_FAMILIY@/include
There are build tree include directories for generated files.
The include directory order favours the most general header file, e.g.
it is not possible to override general header files via the include path
order.
The "bootstrap -p" option was removed. The new "bootstrap -H" option
should be used to regenerate the "headers.am" files.

Only use CPU_Per_CPU_control if it contains at least one filed. In GNU
C empty structures have a size of zero. In C++ structures have a
non-zero size. In case CPU_PER_CPU_CONTROL_SIZE is defined to zero,
then this structure is not used anymore.

According to the C11 standard only atomic read-modify-write operations
guarantee that the last value written in modification order is read, see
"7.17.3 Order and consistency". Thus we must use a read-modify-write in
_SMP_Inter_processor_interrupt_handler() to make sure we read an
up-to-date message.
