DETAILS
This module implements the ti.sdo.ipc.interfaces.IGateMPSupport interface using the Peterson Algorithm in shared memory. This implementation works for N processors.
Each GatePetersonN instance requires a small piece of shared memory. The base address of this shared memory is specified as the 'sharedAddr' argument to the create. The amount of shared memory consumed by a single instance can be obtained using the sharedMemReq call.
Shared memory has to conform to the following specification. Padding is added between certain elements in shared memory if cache alignment is required for the region in which the instance is placed.
