At least on GICv1 the interrupts 0 up to including 31 are so called
Peripheral Private Interrupts (PPIs). We have to initialize the
priority of the PPIs on secondary processors.
This patch adds driver for Mini UART present in Raspberry Pi 3
and above, this UART is currently used as the primary UART in
these models.
The Mini UART is similar to ns16550, this driver is built
upon libchip/ns16550.
Place idle and MPCI stacks into extra linker sections. This can be
optionally used by applications to control the placement of the stacks.
Update #3835.
Use RTEMS_SYSINIT_ORDER_LAST_BUT_5 instead of RTEMS_SYSINIT_ORDER_LAST
to allow applications and support functions to place system
initialization handlers behind the standard handlers.
Update #3838.
The work area initialization was done by the BSP through
bsp_work_area_initialize(). This approach predated the system
initialization through the system initialization linker set. The
workspace and C program heap were unconditionally initialized. The aim
is to support RTEMS application configurations which do not need the
workspace and C program heap. In these configurations, the workspace
and C prgram heap should not get initialized.
Change all bsp_work_area_initialize() to implement _Memory_Get()
instead. Move the dirty memory, sbrk(), per-CPU data, workspace, and
malloc() heap initialization into separate system initialization steps.
This makes it also easier to test the individual initialization steps.
This change adds a dependency to _Heap_Extend() to all BSPs. This
dependency will be removed in a follow up change.
Update #3838.
The code covered by BSP_GET_WORK_AREA_DEBUG was basically dead code
since there was no normal way to activate it (e.g. via a BSP
configuration option). A follow up patch will bring back this feature
through a CONFIGURE_VERBOSE_SYSTEM_INITIALIZATION configuration option.
Update #3838.
This adds support for the GICv3 interrupt controller along with the
redistributor to control SGIs and PPIs which wasn't present in GICv2
implementations. GICv3 implementations only optionally support
memory-mapped GICC interface interaction and require system register
access be implemented, so the GICC interface is accessed only
through system registers.
The BSP tried to get the size of the SDRAM based on the revision code.
Unfortunately the code had some bugs so that the default size has been
used. Beneath that the MMU table hasn't been adapted.
This patch queries the SDRAM size via a special VC Mailbox call instead.
For the MMU adaption a simmilar method to the one in the imx BSP is
used.
The imx BSP contained a hack to change the workspace entry of the MMU
table. This makes the used define visible for other BSPs too so that the
same hack can be used for example in raspberry pi too.
The small page MMU support reduces the granularity for memory settings
through the MMU from 1MiB sections to 4KiB small pages.
Enable it by default on the realview_pbx_a9_qemu BSP.
For level triggered interrupts currently the handler would have been
called two times (assuming no one cleared the mask in a handler which
would have been bad because the handler couldn't process all other that
got cleared by accident). This patch allows the handler only to return
if nothing is left to do.
