`handle_error` calls `MBED_CALLER_ADDR()`, but this is always a location from within platform/mbed_error.c. This is because `handle_error` is declared static. This does not cause the function to be inlined however. Instead, it is called by each function within mbed_error.c. For example, mbed_error yields this code:
```
000625c8 <mbed_error>:
625c8: b510 push {r4, lr}
625ca: 460c mov r4, r1
625cc: 4611 mov r1, r2
625ce: 461a mov r2, r3
625d0: 9b02 ldr r3, [sp, #8]
625d2: f7ff feff bl 623d4 <handle_error>
625d6: b968 cbnz r0, 625f4 <mbed_error+0x2c>
625d8: 4620 mov r0, r4
625da: f7ff ff67 bl 624ac <print_error_report.constprop.0>
625de: f7ff fea8 bl 62332 <core_util_is_isr_active>
625e2: b910 cbnz r0, 625ea <mbed_error+0x22>
625e4: f7ff fe9f bl 62326 <core_util_are_interrupts_enabled>
625e8: b908 cbnz r0, 625ee <mbed_error+0x26>
625ea: bf30 wfi
625ec: e7fd b.n 625ea <mbed_error+0x22>
625ee: 2001 movs r0, #1
625f0: f000 f948 bl 62884 <__wrap_exit>
625f4: 4800 ldr r0, [pc, #0] ; (625f8 <mbed_error+0x30>)
625f6: bd10 pop {r4, pc}
625f8: 80ff010f .word 0x80ff010f
```
Note that at `625d2` there is a bl to handle error. That replaces the LR, which means that ALL calls to mbed_error will report a location of 0x625d6 or 0x625d7 (user vs. supervisor). I do not expect that this was the intention of the code. The simplest fix is to change line 99:
```C
static inline mbed_error_status_t handle_error(mbed_error_status_t error_status, unsigned int error_value, const char *filename, int line_number)
```
Since `handle_error()` will be inlined, the link register will be kept the same, so `MBED_CALLER_ADDR()` will yield the expected result. However, there is no guarantee that the compiler will respect the `inline` keyword in all circumstances.
The result is that each function that wishes to report its caller must extract its caller. This code cannot be centralised.
I have modified `mbed_error.c` to report the caller of each error reporting function, rather than the error reporting function itself.
I added the powerdown func by GIC in mbed_application because Cortex-A9 use GIC instead of NVIC.
This process prevent unexpected interrupt when updating software by using bootloader.
I added the process for Cortex-A in mbed_application.c because this process was for only Cortex-M.
Also I enabled the macro of MBED_APPLICATION_SUPPORT for Cortex-A.
The new configuration make Error history tracking switched off by default and enabled by using the config flag MBED_CONF_PLATFORM_ERROR_HIST_ENABLED.
Config flag MBED_CONF_PLATFORM_ERROR_ALL_THREADS_INFO enables printing info of all threads. This will be turned off by default.
With "mov r2, #0", compile OK with GCC_ARM, but failed with ARMC6.
With "ldr r2, =0", compile OK with ARMC6, but failed with GCC_ARM.
Finally, with "movw r2, #0"/"movt r2, #0", compile OK with both ARMC6 and GCC_ARM.
