For more information on developing a BSP, refer to the -chapter titled Board Support Packages in the RTEMS -Applications User's Guide. - -@section System Reset - -An RTEMS based application is initiated or -re-initiated when the XXX processor is reset. When the -XXX is reset, the processor performs the following actions: - -@itemize @bullet -@item The tracing bits of the status register are cleared to -disable tracing. - -@item The supervisor interrupt state is entered by setting the -supervisor (S) bit and clearing the master/interrupt (M) bit of -the status register. - -@item The interrupt mask of the status register is set to -level 7 to effectively disable all maskable interrupts. - -@item The vector base register (VBR) is set to zero. - -@item The cache control register (CACR) is set to zero to -disable and freeze the processor cache. - -@item The interrupt stack pointer (ISP) is set to the value -stored at vector 0 (bytes 0-3) of the exception vector table -(EVT). - -@item The program counter (PC) is set to the value stored at -vector 1 (bytes 4-7) of the EVT. - -@item The processor begins execution at the address stored in -the PC. -@end itemize - -@section Processor Initialization - -The address of the application's initialization code -should be stored in the first vector of the EVT which will allow -the immediate vectoring to the application code. If the -application requires that the VBR be some value besides zero, -then it should be set to the required value at this point. All -tasks share the same XXX's VBR value. Because interrupts -are enabled automatically by RTEMS as part of the initialize -executive directive, the VBR MUST be set 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. - -In addition to the requirements described in the -Board Support Packages chapter of the Applications User's -Manual for the reset code which is executed before the call to -initialize executive, the XXX version has the following -specific requirements: - -@itemize @bullet -@item Must leave the S bit of the status register set so that -the XXX remains in the supervisor state. - -@item Must set the M bit of the status register to remove the -XXX from the interrupt state. - -@item Must set the master stack pointer (MSP) such that a -minimum stack size of MINIMUM_STACK_SIZE bytes is provided for -the initialize executive directive. - -@item Must initialize the XXX's vector table. -@end itemize - -Note that the BSP is not responsible for allocating -or installing the interrupt stack. RTEMS does this -automatically as part of initialization. If the BSP does not -install an interrupt stack and -- for whatever reason -- an -interrupt occurs before initialize_executive is invoked, then -the results are unpredictable. - |
