Since mbed-os 5.4.3, something increased foot print of mbed-os and the applications that were barely fitting in started to spill.
IAR toolchain for LPC176x target family is set to use 2 RAM regions (32K each). RAM region
2 is being used for ETH/USB and 1 is being used for vector table, stack/heap/static data.
In this commit we have decreased heap size allocation from 8K to 7K so that the is more room for stack and static data.
If NVIC_NUM_VECTORS is larger than the space allocated by the vector
table in ram (__ram_vector_table_size__) then the call to mbed_cpy_nvic
during boot will corrupt valid data, which can lead to a crash. This
patch fixes the declared number of vectors on the KL27Z, KL43Z and
KL82Z to fix this crash.
To allow components with a simple need to schedule a few events to not
have to create their own threads, with all the associated memory
overhead, add 2 central calls to get shared normal and an
interrupt-deferral event queues, each dispatched on their own shared
threads.
For non-RTOS systems, just the normal event queue is provided, and the
application would have to dispatch this itself. This
application-dispatch is also available via a config option, to
potentially save memory by reusing the main thread.
Possible future improvement: the ability for separate components to
request a minimum stack size, and have the JSON combine these requests.
(Analogous tooling has already been mooted for mbed TLS config options
like key size).
Update directory structure to include RTX for only cortex targets, and
for all cortex targets. This patch accomplishes this by moving mbed-os
specific RTX files and RTX itself into rtos/TARGET_CORTEX along with
removing TARGET_CORTEX_M from the RTX5 directory.
The old directory structure:
rtos/rtx5/<mbed-os specific RTX files>
rtos/rtx5/TARGET_CORTEX_M/*
rtos/rtx4/*
rtos/<mbed-os specific RTX files>
Is re-arranged to:
rtos/TARGET_CORTEX/rtx5/*
rtos/TARGET_CORTEX/rtx4/*
rtos/TARGET_CORTEX/<mbed-os specific rtx files>
This both encapsulates RTX code more cleanly and makes it easier to
experiment with non-cortex cmsis-os2 backends, such as a posix
based cmsis-os2 backend.
Note - A potentially better name for the CORTEX_M directory would be
something like FEATURE_RTX5 since this directory only contains RTX5
related files. This cannot be done because there is not an easy way
to turn this feature on, since it cannot be done from mbed_lib.json.
Commit f602c936 incorrectly started defining LWIP_DEBUG as either 0 or
1.
lwipopts.h locally was changed to use #if, but all existing users
continued to use #ifdef. Therefore defining it to 0 was accidentally
enabling it for quite a few users.
This would have pulled in some unwanted lwIP code, and affected some
drivers, eg k64f_emac.c allocating an extra 2K of stack.
Correct lwipopts.h to either define it as 1 or leave it undefined, and
change the #if tests back to #ifdef, so all are consistent.
