As discussed in #2725, this commit renames a number of stacksize constants to
better convey their intended usage. In addition, constants for thread priority
are given a `THREAD_` prefix. Changes are:
* KERNEL_CONF_STACKSIZE_PRINTF renamed to THREAD_EXTRA_STACKSIZE_PRINTF
* KERNEL_CONF_STACKSIZE_DEFAULT renamed to THREAD_STACKSIZE_DEFAULT
* KERNEL_CONF_STACKSIZE_IDLE renamed to THREAD_STACKSIZE_IDLE
* KERNEL_CONF_STACKSIZE_MAIN renamed to THREAD_STACKSIZE_MAIN
* Move thread stacksizes from kernel.h to thread.h, since the prefix changed
* PRIORITY_MIN renamed to THREAD_PRIORITY_MIN
* PRIORITY_IDLE renamed to THREAD_PRIORITY_IDLE
* PRIORITY_MAIN renamed to THREAD_PRIORITY_MAIN
* Move thread priorities from kernel.h to thread.h since the prefix has changed
* MINIMUM_STACK_SIZE renamed to THREAD_STACKSIZE_MINIMUM for consistency
- Move generic implementation of atomic_set_return to core/atomic.c
- Generic implementation of atomic compare and swap in core/atomic.c
- atomic_cas is used to implement atomic counters in core/include/atomic.h
- atomic_int_t is an atomic integer type
- ATOMIC_INIT can be used as an initializer for atomic_int_t
- ATOMIC_VALUE gets a reference to the value of an atomic integer
Fixes#1708.
Currently involuntary preemption causes the current thread not only to
yield for a higher prioritized thread, but all other threads of its own
priority class, too.
This PR adds the function `thread_yield_higher()`, which will yield the
current thread in favor of higher prioritized functions, but not for
threads of its own priority class.
Boards now need to implement `thread_yield_higher()` instead of
`thread_yield()`, but `COREIF_NG` boards are not affected in any way.
`thread_yield()` retains its old meaning: yield for every thread that
has the same or a higher priority.
This PR does not touch the occurrences of `thread_yield()` in the periph
drivers, because the author of this PR did not look into the logic of
the various driver implementations.
This PR converts tabs to white spaces.
The statement I used for the conversion:
```find . -name "*.[ch]" -exec zsh -c 'expand -t 4 "$0" > /tmp/e && mv /tmp/e "$0"' {} \;```
Afterwards, I had a quick overview of the converted files to prevent odd indentation.
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.
