sys_arch interface for lwIP
Author: Adam Dunkels
Simon Goldschmidt
The operating system emulation layer provides a common interface
between the lwIP code and the underlying operating system kernel. The
general idea is that porting lwIP to new architectures requires only
small changes to a few header files and a new sys_arch
implementation. It is also possible to do a sys_arch implementation
that does not rely on any underlying operating system.
The sys_arch provides semaphores, mailboxes and mutexes to lwIP. For the full
lwIP functionality, multiple threads support can be implemented in the
sys_arch, but this is not required for the basic lwIP
functionality. Timer scheduling is implemented in lwIP, but can be implemented
by the sys_arch port (LWIP_TIMERS_CUSTOM==1).
In addition to the source file providing the functionality of sys_arch,
the OS emulation layer must provide several header files defining
macros used throughout lwip. The files required and the macros they
must define are listed below the sys_arch description.
Since lwIP 1.4.0, semaphore, mutexes and mailbox functions are prototyped in a way that
allows both using pointers or actual OS structures to be used. This way, memory
required for such types can be either allocated in place (globally or on the
stack) or on the heap (allocated internally in the "*_new()" functions).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Be careful with using mem_malloc() in sys_arch. When malloc() refers to
mem_malloc() you can run into a circular function call problem. In mem.c
mem_init() tries to allcate a semaphore using mem_malloc, which of course
can't be performed when sys_arch uses mem_malloc.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional files required for the "OS support" emulation layer:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cc.h - Architecture environment, some compiler specific, some
environment specific (probably should move env stuff
to sys_arch.h.)
Typedefs for the types used by lwip -
u8_t, s8_t, u16_t, s16_t, u32_t, s32_t, mem_ptr_t
Compiler hints for packing lwip's structures -
PACK_STRUCT_FIELD(x)
PACK_STRUCT_STRUCT
PACK_STRUCT_BEGIN
PACK_STRUCT_END
Platform specific diagnostic output -
LWIP_PLATFORM_DIAG(x) - non-fatal, print a message.
LWIP_PLATFORM_ASSERT(x) - fatal, print message and abandon execution.
Portability defines for printf formatters:
U16_F, S16_F, X16_F, U32_F, S32_F, X32_F, SZT_F
"lightweight" synchronization mechanisms -
SYS_ARCH_DECL_PROTECT(x) - declare a protection state variable.
SYS_ARCH_PROTECT(x) - enter protection mode.
SYS_ARCH_UNPROTECT(x) - leave protection mode.
If the compiler does not provide memset() this file must include a
definition of it, or include a file which defines it.
This file must either include a system-local <errno.h> which defines
the standard *nix error codes (or define LWIP_ERRNO_INCLUDE to that file name),
or it should #define LWIP_PROVIDE_ERRNO to make lwip/arch.h define the codes
which are used throughout.
perf.h - Architecture specific performance measurement.
Measurement calls made throughout lwip, these can be defined to nothing.
PERF_START - start measuring something.
PERF_STOP(x) - stop measuring something, and record the result.
sys_arch.h - Tied to sys_arch.c
Arch dependent types for the following objects:
sys_sem_t, sys_mbox_t, sys_thread_t,
And, optionally:
sys_prot_t
Defines to set vars of sys_mbox_t and sys_sem_t to NULL.
SYS_MBOX_NULL NULL
SYS_SEM_NULL NULL
