Last change on this file since 42bbbe2 was 2b4a9f26, checked in by Martin Decky <martin@…>, 15 years ago

Add interrupts-disabled spinlocks whose purpose is the semantic distinction between spinlocks acquired always with interrupts disabled and normal spinlocks.
The compile-time distinction is implemented by the means of the type system and basic code correctness properties can be checked by the debugging assertions during run-time (with CONFIG_DEBUG)

  • Correct bracketing of top-level interrupts-disabled spinlocks
  • Correctness of the use of nested interrupts-disabled spinlocks (interrupts must be actually disabled)
  • Basic consistency of places where the interrupt level is restored

The API encapsulates the physical manipulation with the interrupt levels and also two common locking patterns

  • Sequential unlocking of spinlock A before locking of spinlock B without restoring original interrupt level (irq_spinlock_pass())
  • Hand-over-hand locking of two locks in the correct locking order, e.g. if A precedes B, then locking of B before unlocking A (irq_spinlock_exchange())

A new HAL function interrupts_disabled() should be implemented in each port to support the run-time checks of correctly disabled interrupts while locking nested interrupts-disabled spinlocks
(only in debug builds, not used in non-debug builds).

  • Property mode set to 100644
