On the MCS kernel, Arch_migrateTCB is called in multiple places.
This commit moves the common code that is required when migrating a TCB
to a top level function to reduce boiler plate.
Currently building ARM/SMP is broken. This commit:
1- Makes it possible to build ARM/SMP with stubs. Run-time SMP for ARM
DOES NOT WORK.
2- Can be a reference for future SMP targets to follow in order to
layout/add the minimal required files and functions needed to support SMP.
3- Builds for Sabre only. In order to support other platforms, ipi
interrupt ID should be defined in machine.h
This commit is a re-arrangement of SMP directory structure to make it
easier for other architectures/platforms (in general) and ARM (in
particular) to add SMP support.
* new include/smp directory to act as a centralised container of
"shared" architecture-independent SMP headers.
This makes it clearer what's needed for other architecture/platform to
support SMP.
* Each platform can define its own unique ipi.[h|c] that make sense,
since ipi implementation is SoC/platform dependent.
This will update TCB invocations to consider multicore environment, this may include:
- adds the affinity invocation to transfer TCB between different cores and update TCB structure for core ID
- checking the thread/core state before performing TCB operation, e.g. deleting the runnable TCB, etc
- update core detection code and Kconfig file
- update kernel stack managment so that BSP does not use boot stack before IPI APs
- move arch dependant data to a single structure
- add cache line size to Kconfig
- add cpu indexing and apic id mapping
- boot APs to halting state
- add guard for kernel stack if there is only one core
- update core detection code and Kconfig file
- update kernel stack managment so that BSP does not use boot stack before IPI APs
- move arch dependant data to a single structure
- add cache line size to Kconfig
- add cpu indexing and apic id mapping
- boot APs to halting state
- add guard for kernel stack if there is only one core
