The transport implements a queue using a circular buffer in the manner
indicated by the following diagram.
NOTE: Processors '0' and '1' correspond to the processors with lower and
higher MultiProc ids, respectively

typedef enum TransportShmCirc_Reason {

} TransportShmCirc_Reason;

enum TransportShmCirc_Status |
|
Transport return values
typedef enum TransportShmCirc_Status {
TransportShmCirc_S_SUCCESS,
TransportShmCirc_E_FAIL,
TransportShmCirc_E_ERROR
} TransportShmCirc_Status;
DETAILS
- S_SUCCESS: Operation was successful
- E_FAIL: Operation resulted in a failure
- E_ERROR: Operation resulted in an error.
typedef TransportShmCirc_ErrFxn |
|
Typedef for transport error callback function
DETAILS
First parameter: Why the error function is being called.
Second parameter: Handle of transport that had the error. NULL denotes
that it is a system error, not a specific transport.
Third parameter: Pointer to the message. This is only valid for
Reason_FAILEDPUT.
Fourth parameter: Transport specific information. Refer to individual
transports for more details.
config TransportShmCirc_enableStats // module-wide |
|
Enable statistics for sending an event
extern const Bool TransportShmCirc_enableStats;
DETAILS
If this parameter is to 'TRUE' and 'waitClear' is also set to
TRUE when calling (@link #sendEvent(), then the module keeps
track of the number of times the processor spins waiting for
an empty slot and the max amount of time it waits.
config TransportShmCirc_errFxn // module-wide |
|
Asynchronous error function for the transport module
config TransportShmCirc_notifyEventId // module-wide |
|
Notify event ID for transport
extern const UInt16 TransportShmCirc_notifyEventId;
config TransportShmCirc_numMsgs // module-wide |
|
The number of messages or slots in the circular buffer
extern const UInt TransportShmCirc_numMsgs;
DETAILS
This is use to determine the size of the put and get buffers.
Each eventEntry is two 32bits wide, therefore the total size
of each circular buffer is [numMsgs * sizeof(eventEntry)].
The total size of each buffer must be a multiple of the
the cache line size. For example, if the cacheLineSize = 128
then numMsgs could be 16, 32, etc...
TransportShmCirc_setErrFxn() // module-wide |
|
Sets the asynchronous error function for the transport module
ARGUMENTS
errFxn
Function that is called when an asynchronous
error occurs.
DETAILS
This API allows the user to set the function that will be called in
case of an asynchronous error by the transport.

Instance Object Types |
|
typedef struct TransportShmCirc_Object TransportShmCirc_Object;
// Opaque internal representation of an instance object
// Client reference to an instance object
typedef struct TransportShmCirc_Struct TransportShmCirc_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 TransportShmCirc_Params {
// Instance config-params structure
// Common per-instance configs
UInt priority;
// Which priority messages should this transport manage
Ptr sharedAddr;
// Address in shared memory where this instance will be placed
} TransportShmCirc_Params;
// Initialize this config-params structure with supplier-specified defaults before instance creation
config TransportShmCirc_priority // instance |
|
Which priority messages should this transport manage
config TransportShmCirc_sharedAddr // instance |
|
Address in shared memory where this instance will be placed
DETAILS
Use
sharedMemReq to determine the amount of shared memory
required.
Instance Creation |
|
// Allocate and initialize a new instance object and return its handle
// Initialize a new instance object inside the provided structure
ARGUMENTS
procId
Remote processor id that this instance
will communicate with.
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
This function creates a transport instance. The transport is
responsible for registering with MessageQ via the
ti.sdo.ipc.MessageQ.registerTransport API.
Instance Deletion |
|
// Finalize and free this previously allocated instance object, setting the referenced handle to NULL
// Finalize the instance object inside the provided structure
TransportShmCirc_control() // instance |
|
Send a control command to the transport instance
ARGUMENTS
handle
handle of a previously-created TransportShmCirc instance object
cmd
Requested command
cmdArgs
Accompanying field for the command. This is
command specific.
RETURNS
TRUE denotes acceptance of the command. FALSE
denotes failure of the command.
DETAILS
This is function allows transport to specify control commands. Refer
to individual transport implementions for more details.
TransportShmCirc_getStatus() // instance |
|
Status of a Transport instance
ARGUMENTS
handle
handle of a previously-created TransportShmCirc instance object
RETURNS
Returns status of Transport instance
DETAILS
This function returns the status of the transport instance.
TransportShmCirc_put() // instance |
|
Put the message to the remote processor
ARGUMENTS
handle
handle of a previously-created TransportShmCirc instance object
msg
Pointer the message to be sent
RETURNS
TRUE denotes acceptance of the message to
be sent. FALSE denotes the message could not be
sent.
DETAILS
If the transport can accept the message, it returns TRUE. Accepting
a message does not mean that it is transmitted. It simply means that
the transport should be able to send the message. If the actual transfer
fails, the transport calls the {@#ErrFxn} (assuming it is set up via the
{@#setErrFxn} API. If the {@#ErrFxn} is not set, the message is dropped.
(also...should an error be raised or just System_printf?).
If the transport cannot send the message, it returns FALSE and a
filled in Error_Block. The caller still owns the message.
