If a timer triggers while the idle thread is running, previously a stack
overflow was triggered. This commit increases the idle threads stack size if
xtimer is used.
Added a low level implementation of timer_set() that allows setting relative
timeouts as short as 0. This results in tests/periph_timer_short_relative_set
no passing.
The inline assembly implementation was badly in need of improvement.
- irq_disable() took 2 CPU cycles more than needed
- The current interrupt state was stored in a temporary register and
afterwards copied to the target register, rather than storing it in the
target register right away
- The lower bits of the state were cleared (as they have no meaning for the
interrupt status), but the API purposely never required such things from
implementations.
- irq_restore() took 5 CPU cycles. This was reduced to 3 CPU cycles (or 2 CPU
cycles in the best case)
Drop `#include "irq.h"` in `cpu.h`, which was there for a legacy work around.
A bunch of missing includes of `irq.h` materialized due to this and were
fixed.
At the end of an ISR, the ATmega code was doing an `thread_yield()` instead of
a `thread_yield_higher()`. This resulted in tests/isr_yield_higher failing.
Fixing this saves a few lines of code, some ROM, and solves the issue.
Names with two leading underscores are reserved in any context of the c
standard, and thus must not be used. This ATmega platform used it however for
defining internal stuff. This commit fixes this.
Moved macros and static inline helper functions needed to access ATmega GPIOs
to cpu/atmega_common/include/atmega_gpio.h in order to reuse them for the
platform specific low level part of the Neopixel driver.
ATmega128RFA1/ATmega256RFR2 do not have a unique CPU ID.
Use the RC oscillator callibration byte as an impromptu CPU ID and rely
on bootlader constants present on all ATmega families for the remaining
bytes.
This way we can provide a faux CPU ID on all ATmega MCUs and typical hobbyists
with no access to JTAG adapters or high voltage programmer capable of writing
the user signature have a good chance that the CPU IDs of their device do not collide.
