The modules `newlib, `newlib_syscalls_default` and `stdio_uart` are now used by default for output to the UART interface. This also reduces the dependency rules.
The overridden stdio functions `puts`, `putchar` and `printf` were removed. Instead, the corresponding newlib functions are always used. Using the newlib functions fixes output conflicts when using `f *` functions like `fprintf`,` fputs`, ... with `stdout` as the file parameter.
Use the -gz option to compress ELF sections containing DWARF information.
This saves around 50% of disk space, without any side effects.
See https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-9.2.0/gcc/Debugging-Options.html#Debugging-Options
for more infomation on this option.
Some platforms have an outdated toolchain that does not support -gz so
the flag is blacklisted there. Even then, the results are quite impressive.
I used @cladmi's `buildtest` branch (https://github.com/cladmi/RIOT/tree/wip/du/buildtest)
with this change and compiled the `examples/default` application:
```
$ BUILD_IN_DOCKER=1 DOCKER="sudo docker" make -C examples/default buildtest-indocker
```
The size was obtained with:
```
$ find output -name "*.bin.bindirsize" -type f -exec tail -n1 '{}' \; | cut -f 1 | awk '{s+=$1} END {printf "%.0f", s}'
```
Results:
- Vanilla: 10328112 KB (~10GB).
- with -gz: 4982788 KB (~5GB).
This was inspired by #8496.
_exti() always assumes only 2 ports, so it will always fail when using
e.g. port C or port D on same54.
Instead, determine the number of ports from the dimensions of the exti_config
array.
As the comment above cpu_switch_context_exit notes:
sched_active_thread is not valid when cpu_switch_context_exit() is called.
Unfortunately, thread_yield(), which is called directly by
cpu_switch_context_exit(), uses sched_active_thread possibly resulting
in a null pointer dereference.
Solution: Trigger a software interrupt to perform a context switch and
let sched_run() determine the next valid thread from there.
once hardware flow control is enabled, rts should only be initialized
after the uart is enabled by setting the UE flag. This is stated in the
stm32f4 errata.
in uart_poweroff the peripheral should be disabled through the register
instead of just disabling the peripheral clock. In uart_poweron the
peripheral should be enabled after enabling the clock.
Not explicitely disabling the peripheral causes some bad signals on the
uart line sometimes.
Module `newlib` is now used by default. Therefore, the separation of initialization of ctors and the newlibc is not needed any longer. Instead of calling `do_global_ctors` and `_init` separately, `__libc_init_array` is called. Explicit function `do_global_ctors` is removed.
Initializing the stdio file descriptors in global reent structure with newlib fake stdio file descriptors led to the problem that newlib stdio functions printf and puts were not working since they can't operate on these fake stdio file descriptors. Therefore, this initialization was removed. Now, the real stdio file descriptors as created automatically by newlib are used. Specific functions `printf`, `puts`, `getchar`and `putchar` are not required any longer and are removed now.
Modules newlib and newlib_syscalls_default are now used by default. Conditional compilations for MODULE_NEWLIB_SYSCALLS_DEFAULT as well as alternative code are removed completely.
printf and puts used ets_printf before. Unfortunately, ets_printf adds an additional \r for each \n which is not consistent with other RIOT platforms. As a result some automatic tests failed. Therefore, both functions write now character-wise directly to the UART interface.
Memory management function like `malloc`, `calloc`, `realloc` and `free` must not be preempted when they operate on allocator structures. To avoid such a preemption, wrappers around these functions are used which simply disable all interrupts for the time of their execution.
Using a mutex for critical section handling with portENTER_CRITICAL and portEXIT_CRITICAL does not work for RIOT, as this function can also be called in the interrupt context. Therefore, the given mutex is not used. Instead, the basic default FreeRTOS mechanism for critical sections is used by simply disabling interrupts. Since context switches for the ESP32 are also based on interrupts, there is no possibility that another thread will enter the critical section once the interrupts are disabled.
- stm32f7 use sectors instead of pages, they go either from 16KB to
128KB, or from 32KB to 25KB. Smaller sectors are at the begining of
the flash. Slots must start at the begining of a sector to not overlap.
- Minimum required RIOBOOT_HDR_LEN or stm32f7 is 0x200
to respect vector table alignment
- Add CPU_FLASH_BASE
- stm32f2 uses sectors instead of pages, they go from 16KB to
128KB. Smaller sectors are at the begining of the flash. Slots
must start at the begining of a sector to not overlap.
- Minimum required RIOBOOT_HDR_LEN or stm32f2 is 0x200
to respect vector table alignment
- Stm32f4 use sectors instead of pages. They go from 16 KB to 128KB.
The bootloader will use the first sector(16Kb). Slots must start
at the begining of a sector to not overlap.
- Minimum required RIOBOOT_HDR_LEN or stm32f4 is 0x200
to respect vector table alignment
The option value length of Ethernet addresses can be more than 6 byte in lwIP. Therefore, the max_len parameter is check to be greater than or equal to ETHERNET_ADDR_LEN.
Module esp_idf_heap is enabled in cpu/esp32/Makefile.dep depending on other modules. Since cpu/esp32/Makefile.dep is read after cpu/esp32/Makefile.include, the conditional definition of the linker options for the wrapper functions had to be moved from cpu/esp32/Makefile.include to cpu/esp32/Makefile.dep.
If module esp_idf_heap is used, the memory management functions _malloc_r, _realloc_r, _calloc_r and _free_r have to be overridden by wrapper functions to use the heap_* functions of module _esp_idf_heap. However, this can lead to multiple symbol errors for these functions for some applications. To solve this symbol conflict, _malloc_r, _realloc_r, _calloc_r and _free_r functions are renamed to __wrap_* and the linker options are extended by -Wl,-wrap option when module esp_idf_heap is used.
When standard C libraries are added to BASELIBS to group them together with all other modules, there are multiple definitions for the putchar function. The one that is defined writing to the UART as standard output and the one that is provided by the standard C libraries. To solve this symbol conflict, putchar and getchar functions that use the UART as standard output/input are renamed to __wrap_putchar and __wrap_getchar and the linker options are extended by -Wl,-wrap option.
When linking an application, symbol pthread_setcancelstate is not known in standard C libraries, even if the pthread module is linked. This is because the pthread module is grouped with all other modules, but not with the default C libraries when they are added to LINK_FLAGS. Therefore, standard C libraries have to be added also to BASELIBS to group them with all other modules.
Fixes the problem that the compilation of an applications can throw unknown symbol errors for functions that aren't use at all. Thus, it is possible to remove the warning for unknown symbols and the compilation can abort if there are real unknown symbols.
- remove old header files
- fix new DMA header file macro definitions
- remove old cpu type groups (STM32L1XX_MD, STM32L1XX_MDP,
STM32L1XX_HD, STM32L1XX_XL)
- The __NOP() that was added in #8518 is now remooved.
- When DBG_STANDBY, DBG_STOP or DBG_SLEEP are set in DBG_CR a hardfault
occurs on wakeup from sleep. This was first diagnosed in #8518. When
enabled, a hardfault occured when returning from a branch to irq_restore()
we avoid the call by inlining the function call. See #11830 for more
details.
-include will throw no error if sam0_common/Makefile.features does not exist.
This may not have been intentional as none of the other sam0 implementations
do this.
Replace it with a normal include.
Currently the configuration claims that external interrupt INT4 is present on
pin PE7. However, the ATmega32U4 datasheet (section 10.3.4 page 81) contains
the following remark to pin PE7: "Not present on pin-out". This commit removes
the PE7 from the interrupt config.
- split up interrupt vector code from bootloader.c to vectors.c
- moved bootloader.c to arm7_init.c
- Use consistent naming:
- use lower case for everything but preprocessor stuff
- ISRs now named isr_foo()
- Functions bl_uart_init(), bl_blink(), bl_config_init() declared but never
implemented
--> Removed declarations
- Check for c preprocessor macro CPU_MC1322X is obsolete, as CPU_MC1322X is
nowhere defined in RIOT's code base
- IRQ_Routine() is never used, nor is it ever configured as ISR
- DEBUG_Routine() is never used, nor is it ever configured as ISR
