- Use CamelCase as it is not used in our C code. Enables simple search and
replace.
- Prefix with "RTEMS" to aid deployment and integration. It aids
searching and sorting.
Update #3706.
Generate Doxygen output in doc and ignore this directory in Git. Add
RTEMS logo. The Doxygen documentation is now built using the source
tree. Just invoke "doxygen" in the top-level source directory.
The Doxyfile works also with at least Doxygen 1.8.13 and Doxygen 1.8.14.
Update #3705.
The following variants
* GICv1 with Security Extensions,
* GICv2 without Security Extensions, or
* within Secure processor mode
have the ability to assign group 0 or 1 to individual interrupts. Group
0 interrupts can be configured to raise an FIQ exception. This enables
the use of NMIs with respect to RTEMS.
BSPs can enable this feature with the BSP_ARM_GIC_ENABLE_FIQ_FOR_GROUP_0
define. Use arm_gic_irq_set_group() to change the group of an
interrupt (default group is 1, if BSP_ARM_GIC_ENABLE_FIQ_FOR_GROUP_0 is
defined).
The system register in use for retrieval of the virtual timer value was
mistakenly copied from the physical timer value retrieval function.
Virtual timer value retrieval should use the same system register as the
virtual timer value setter.
Close#3699.
- Allow an allocator to lock the allocations. This is needed to
lock the heap allocator so the text and trampoline table are
as close together as possible to allow for the largest possible
object file size.
- Update the default heap allocator to lock the heap allocator.
- Update ELF loading to lock the allocator.
Updates #3685
Move device tree copy operation after the mode initialization so that
bsp_fdt_copy() uses the initialization stack and not the stack provided
up by the boot loader.
Recursive usage of the same pthread_once_t results now in a deadlock.
Previously, an error of EINVAL was returned. This usage scenario is
invalid according to the POSIX pthread_once() specification.
Close#3334.
Fix small data area in case no fixed size is desired. Rename
bsp_section_set_sdata_sbss_size into bsp_section_small_data_area_size
since this symbol reflects the overall small data area size (including
space for libdl). Do not use bsp_section_sbss_size before definition in
linker command file. Add new symbols to <bsp/linker-symbols.h>.
Update #3687.
- Add support for architecure sections that can be handled by the
architecture back end.
- Add trampoline/fixup support for PowerPC. This means the PowerPC
now supports large memory loading of applications.
- Add a bit allocator to manage small block based regions of memory.
- Add small data (sdata/sbss) support for the PowerPC. The support
makes the linker allocated small data region of memory a global
resource available to libdl loaded object files.
Updates #3687
Updates #3685
- Add trampolines to support relocs that are out of range on
support architectures.
- Support not loading separate text/data sections in an object
file if the symbol provided in the section is a duplicate.
A base image may have pulled in part of an object and another
part needs to be dynamically loaded.
- Refactor the unresolved handling to scale to hundreds of
unresolved symbols when loading large number of files.
Updates #3685
- Trampolines or fixups for veneers provide long jump support
for instruciton sets that implement short relative address
branches. The linker provides trampolines when creating a
static image. This patch adds trampoline support to libdl
and the ARM architecture.
- The dl09 test requires enough memory so modules are outside
the relative branch instruction ranges for the architecture.
Updates #3685
- Load archive symbol tables to support searching of archives
for symbols.
- Search archive symbols and load the object file that contains
the symbol.
- Search the global and archives until all remaining unresolved symbols
are not found. Group the loaded object files in the pending queue.
- Run the object file and loaded dependents as a group before adding to the
main object list.
- Remove orphaned object files after references are removed.
