This includes GNU readline features and debugging.
Build with `make BOARD=qemu-i386 all-debug`.
Run with `make BOARD=qemu-i386 term`.
Debug with `make BOARD=qemu-i386 debug`. The default debugger is `gdb`.
Also supported are `debug-tui` (GDB Text User Interface), `debug-kdbg`,
and `debug-ddd`. Set a breakpoint in e.g. "startup" or "main", and
hit/write "continue".
The debugger can only run with a quite new toolchain (e.g. Debian
testing). Ubuntu 13.10. for example will likely report a crash in GDB
when switching from 16bit code to 32bit code.
Many modules have subdirectories. Often these subdirectories should only
be included under certain circumstances. Modules that use submodules
currently need to use this pattern:
```make
DIRS = …
all: $(BINDIR)$(MODULE).a
@for i in $(DIRS) ; do $(MAKE) -C $$i ; done ;
include $(RIOTBASE)/Makefile.base
clean::
@for i in $(DIRS) ; do $(MAKE) -C $$i clean ; done ;
```
This PR moves the `all:` and `clean::` boilerplate into `Makefile.base`.
For many modules the `Makefile` contains a line like
```
MODULE:=$(shell basename $(CURDIR))
```
This conclusively shows that we do not have to set the module name
manually.
This PR removes the need to set the module name manually, if it is the
same as the basename. E.g. for `…/sys/vtimer/Makefile` the variable
make `MODULE` will still be `vtimer`, because it is the basename of the
Makefile.
Creates file structure that maps files to licenses by grepping for
license patterns (patterns for licenses found in RIOT included).
Sets exit code to 1 if an unknown license header is detected.
We have sane defaults for `ELFFILE` and `HEXFILE` in the root
`Makefile.include`. The local definition for `ELFFILE` of mbed_lpc1768's
`Makefile.include` was wrong, which caused e.g. `make buildsize` to
fail.
The scheduling gets activated by `kernel_init()` calling
`cpu_switch_context_exit()`. Before this `sched_run()` won't be called.
When it gets called, at least the main thread and the idle thread are
spawned. The idle thread won't die / get killed. So there always is at
least one thread in `runqueue_bitcache`.
Closes#19.
In the current implementation the data offset is coded into an uint8_t.
Of this uint8_t only 3 bits apply for the data offset.
The remaining bits represent reserved flags for future use.
However, a proper bit masking is forgotten in order
to obtain the data offset part of this uint8_t.
Therefore, defining this uint8_t as a bit field allows a more convenient
method of access.
When accessing the length field of an ipv6_header a byte order switch (host -> network) is necessary.
Otherwise, it breaks calculations or the checksum and other tcp related computations.
Furthermore, when writing to ipv6_header->length it is important to switch this
from host byte order to network byte order.
