Use interrupt disable/enable to protect the complete refill state
change. This avoids race conditions for the task driven configuration
and a later SMP support.
Add and use _Objects_Put_without_thread_dispatch(). These two functions
pair with the _Objects_Get() function. This helps to introduce object
specific SMP locks to avoid lock contention.
Move thread dispatch declarations and inline functions to new header
<rtems/score/threaddispatch.h> to make it independent of the
Thread_Control structure. This avoids a cyclic dependency in case
thread dispatch functions are used for the object implementation.
Test handling of file names and directory names according to Microsofts
specification for the FAT file system. Tests for compatibility with a
genuine MS Windows FAT file system have been added.
Test handling of file names and directory names according to Microsofts specification
for the FAT file system. Tests for multibyte file names and directory names have been added.
Add optional conversion methods for multibyte strings. With these
conversions which make use of iconv and utf8proc it becomes possible to
use strings from any language (Czech, Chinese, Arabian, Hebrew, Corean,
...) for file names and directory names.
NOTE: Iconv support must be activated during the build of the tool chain
for these conversion methods (options --enable-newlib-iconv
--enable-newlib-iconv-encodings=[ENCODINGS_YOU_WANT]). Alternatively
you can provide your own conversion methods.
utf8proc is a library for processing UTF-8 encoded Unicode strings.
Some features are Unicode normalization, stripping of default ignorable characters, case folding and detection of grapheme cluster boundaries.
For now utf8proc is intended for normalizing and folding strings for comparison purposes within the UTF-8 support of the FAT file system.
This test will call interface methods of library utf8proc in order to make sure they compiled and linked ok.
The library is third party, thus it should be sufficient for us to make sure we can build it correctly.

For the time beeing utf8proc is intended to be used for normalizing and folding UTF-8 strings
for comparison purposes when adding UTF-8 support to the FAT file system.
Test handling of file names and directory names according to Microsofts
specification for the FAT file system. So far tested only for the
default character set (code page 850).
User interface and backwards compatibility for UTF-8 support in the FAT
file system. Purpose of UTF-8 support is to permit file names and
directory names with characters from all kinds of languages (Czech,
Chinese, Arabian, Hebrew, Korean, ...). This commit does not yet
support multibyte characters. It only contains the user interface and
the backwards compatibility.
Move the SMP lock implementation to the CPU port. An optimal SMP lock
implementation is highly architecture dependent. For example the memory
models may be fundamentally different.
The new SMP lock API has a flaw. It does not provide the ability to use
a local context for acquire and release pairs. Such a context is
necessary to implement for example the Mellor-Crummey and Scott (MCS)
locks. The SMP lock is currently used in _Thread_Disable_dispatch() and
_Thread_Enable_dispatch() and makes them to a giant lock acquire and
release. Since these functions do not pass state information via a
local context there is currently no use case for such a feature.
