This module implements the
ti.sdo.ipc.interfaces.IGateMPSupport
interface using the Peterson Algorithm in shared memory. This
implementation works for only 2 processors.
Each GatePeterson 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.
shmBaseAddr -> --------------------------- bytes
| version | 4
(Attrs struct) | creatorProcId | 2
| openerProcId | 2

| (PADDING if aligned) |

| flag[1] | 2

const GatePeterson_Q_BLOCKING |
|
Blocking quality
#define GatePeterson_Q_BLOCKING (Int)1
DETAILS
Gates with this "quality" may cause the calling thread to block;
i.e., suspend execution until another thread leaves the gate.
const GatePeterson_Q_PREEMPTING |
|
Preempting quality
#define GatePeterson_Q_PREEMPTING (Int)2
DETAILS
Gates with this "quality" allow other threads to preempt the thread
that has already entered the gate.
config GatePeterson_E_gateRemotelyOpened // module-wide |
|
Error raised when gate cannot be opened because of the opener's ID
extern const Error_Id GatePeterson_E_gateRemotelyOpened;
DETAILS
Error raised in
open when trying to remotely open a
GatePeterson instance whose configured opener processor Id does
not match that of the opener's MultiProc id. but it has already been
opened/created on two other processors. GatePeterson only works with
two processors.
config GatePeterson_numInstances // module-wide |
|
Maximum number of instances supported by the GatePeterson module
extern const UInt GatePeterson_numInstances;
GatePeterson_query() // module-wide |
|
Runtime test for a particular gate quality
Bool GatePeterson_query(Int qual);
ARGUMENTS
qual
constant describing a quality
RETURNS
Returns TRUE if the gate has the given quality,
and FALSE otherwise, which includes the case when the gate does not
recognize the constant describing the quality.
GatePeterson_sharedMemReq() // module-wide |
|
Amount of shared memory required for creation of each instance
ARGUMENTS
params
Pointer to the parameters that will be used in
the create.
DETAILS
The value returned by this function may depend on the cache alignment
requirements for the shared region from which memory will be used.
RETURNS
Number of MAUs needed to create the instance.
Module-Wide Built-Ins |
|
// Get this module's unique id
Bool GatePeterson_Module_startupDone();
// Test if this module has completed startup
// The heap from which this module allocates memory
Bool GatePeterson_Module_hasMask();
// Test whether this module has a diagnostics mask
Bits16 GatePeterson_Module_getMask();
// Returns the diagnostics mask for this module
Void GatePeterson_Module_setMask(Bits16 mask);
// Set the diagnostics mask for this module
Instance Object Types |
|
typedef struct GatePeterson_Object GatePeterson_Object;
// Opaque internal representation of an instance object
// Client reference to an instance object
typedef struct GatePeterson_Struct GatePeterson_Struct;
// Opaque client structure large enough to hold an instance object
// Convert this instance structure pointer into an instance handle
// Convert this instance handle into an instance structure pointer
Instance Config Parameters |
|
typedef struct GatePeterson_Params {
// Instance config-params structure
// Common per-instance configs
UInt resourceId;
// Logical resource id
Ptr sharedAddr;
// Physical address of the shared memory
} GatePeterson_Params;
// Initialize this config-params structure with supplier-specified defaults before instance creation
config GatePeterson_resourceId // instance |
|
Logical resource id
config GatePeterson_sharedAddr // instance |
|
Physical address of the shared memory
DETAILS
This parameter is only used by GateMP delegates that use shared memory
Instance Creation |
|
// Allocate and initialize a new instance object and return its handle
// Initialize a new instance object inside the provided structure
ARGUMENTS
localGate
Gate to use for local protection.
params
per-instance config params, or NULL to select default values (target-domain only)
eb
active error-handling block, or NULL to select default policy (target-domain only)
DETAILS
A Non-NULL gate for local protection must be passed to the create
call. If no local protection is desired, a
xdc.runtime.GateNull handle must be passed in.
Instance Deletion |
|
// Finalize and free this previously allocated instance object, setting the referenced handle to NULL
// Finalize the instance object inside the provided structure
Instance Convertors |
|
// unconditionally move one level up the inheritance hierarchy
// conditionally move one level down the inheritance hierarchy; NULL upon failure
// unconditionally move 2 levels up the inheritance hierarchy
// conditionally move 2 levels down the inheritance hierarchy; NULL upon failure
Instance Built-Ins |
|
Int GatePeterson_Object_count();
// The number of statically-created instance objects
// The handle of the i-th statically-created instance object (array == NULL)
// The handle of the first dynamically-created instance object, or NULL
// The handle of the next dynamically-created instance object, or NULL
// The heap used to allocate dynamically-created instance objects
// The label associated with this instance object
// The name of this instance object

new configuration parameters to be added in the future without
any chance of breaking existing modules.
