For MSP430 boards oneway-malloc is already used *if* `malloc.h` was
included. The problem is that `malloc.h` is not a standard header, even
though it is common. `stdlib.h` in the right place to look for
`malloc()` and friends.
This change removes this discrepancy. `malloc()` is just named like
that, without the leading underscore. The symbols now are weak, which
means that they won't override library functions if MSP's standard
library will provide these functions at some point. (Unlikely, since
using `malloc()` on tiny systems is less then optimal ...)
Closes#1061 and #863.
- Included a collection of cpu-dependent headers in core/include/arch
- Extracted all interfaces that need to be implemented for a cpu
- Created a mapping between those interfaces and the old ones
- added flag for disabling arch interface
- added missing state to lpm_arch interface
- added arch interface for reboot
- fixed newline issues that were pointed out
- documentation fixes to cpu-core interface
and added `UNREACHABLE();` to hint the compiler unreachable lines
added right signature for first parameter of `thread_stack_init()`
added `UNREACHABLE();` macro to `cpu/lpc1768/atom.c` and `cpu/msp430-common/cpu.c`
Closes#726.
The thread state `STATUS_TIMER_WAITING` is not used anymore.
This PR removes the value.
The number in `STATUS_ON_RUNQUEUE` is replaced by a reference.
Change from `void reboot(void)` to `int reboot(int mode)`.
Move reboot definition to core, rename architecture implementations
from reboot to reboot_arch.
Declare reboot mode(s) in kernel.h, reboot_arch in kernel_internal.h
Currently only one reboot mode is handled, its use is enforced.
Rationale:
A reboot function is already defined in <unistd.h> on BSD systems.
(See: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=reboot&sektion=2)
This patch not only allows native to build sensibly on these systems
but also streamlines RIOTs compatability with existing software.
The function sched_init() zeroes out sched_threads needlessly. All
static variables can be assumed to be initialized with zero, anyways.
The C standard mandates it, and all at other places in the code it is
assumed.
there is still quite some space left on the persistent flash config area, make it possible to give nodes a name (e.g. hostname of the meshrouter) for nicer debugging
