I finally figured out why the ez80 code has gotten so big. It is because people have been put putting big inline functions in header files. That is a violation of the coding standard, since only c89 compatibility is required in all common code. But we have been tolerating inline function it because include/nuttx/compiler.h defines 'inline' to be nothing for C89 compilers.
As a result, static inline functions declared within a C file not so bad; the inline qualifier is ignored, if not supported, but otherwise all is well.
But it is catastrophic in header files. Those static inline functions are included as static functions and implemented in EVERY file that includes those header files, even if the functions are never called. That makes the code base huge!So there is another PR coming to fix some of the worst offenders.
This commit fixes two of the worst offenders I have encountered so far: include/nuttx/sempahore.h and cache.h. But there may be a few other changes needed. Under include/nuttx there are still inline functions thread.h, inclue/nuttx/list.h, mutex.h, tree.h, and include/nuttx/crypto/blake2s.h with no protection for compilers that do not handler the inline qualifier. Otherwise we are clean.
With the changes to these two header files, the size of the z20x build is reduced by about 40%. And incredible size savings.
* Adding support for BQ769x0 Battery Monitor IC (Work In Progress)
* Additional changes to support BQ769x0
* Store cell count and chip type when setting up
* Added shutdown, limits, charge/discharge switch, and clear faults operations
* Added support for current measurement; some cleanup
* Updated temperature reporting. Fixed negative current reporting.
* When setting safety limits, update limit structure with actual values used.
* Added note on battery limit structure
* Updates to BQ769x0. Re-ordered fault reporting, added fault cache, added ordered fault clearing
And remove syslog_init_e because all initialization is later now and we don't
distinguish the initialition phase anymore after ramlog don't need special
initialize.
Because we can get the same function by CONSOLE_SYSLOG/syslog_console_init.
BTW, it isn't a good choice to use g_ramlogfops as /dev/console since nsh
will read back what it send out which will surprise most people.
To ensure size_t same as toolchain definition in the first place and rename CXX_NEWLONG to ARCH_SIZET_LONG. The change also check whether __SIZE_TYPE__ exist before CONFIG_ARCH_SIZET_LONG so our definition can align with toolchain(gcc/clang) definition automatically.
Historically, the loopback driver used the largest packet size of all enabled link layer protocols. This permitted packets to be forward via the loopbak device with no major loss of performance. However, in experimenting with configurations where no other link layer protocols were enabled, this means the loopback packet size was set to the smallest possible size, to the SLIP minimum of 296 bytes. This resulted in terrible loopback performance.
This commit adds an option to increase the loopback packet size with the option CONFIG_NET_LOOPBACK_PACKETSIZE.
The loopback driver packet buffer should be quite large. The larger the loopback packet buffer, the better will be TCP performance of the loopback transfers. The Linux loopback device historically used packet buffers of size 16Kb, but that was increased in recent Linux versions to 64Kb. Those sizes may be excessive for resource constrained MCUs, however.
The network still enforces the lower limit that is the maximum packet size of all enabled link layer protocols. But this new option permits the loopback packet size to be increased from that.
* net/Kconfig: Adds CONFIG_NET_LOOPBACK_PKTSIZE option
* include/nuttx/net/netconfig.h: Assures that the packet size that is used is at least as large as the largest packet size of other link layer protocols.
* drivers/net/loopback.c: Use that larger packet size.
* boards/sim/sim/sim/configs/tcploop/defconfig: Set the loopback packet size to 1500
Call xxx_timer_initialize from clock subsystem to make timer ready for use as soon as possiblei and revert the workaround:
commit 0863e771a9
Author: Gregory Nutt <gnutt@nuttx.org>

Revert "sched/clock/clock_initialize.c: clock_inittime() needs to be done with CONFIG_SCHED_TICKLESS and clock_initialize should skip clock_inittime() for external RTC case since the RTC isn't ready yet."
This reverts commit 2bc709d4b9.
Commit 2bc709d4b9 was intended to handle the case where up_timer_gettime may not start from zero case. However, this change has the side-effect of breaking every implementation of tickless mode: After this change the tickless timer structures are used before they are initialized in clock_inittime(). Initialization happens later when up_initialize is called() when arm_timer_initialize().
Since the tickless mode timer is very special, one solution might be to
1. Rename xxx_timer_initialize to up_timer_initialize
2 Move up_timer_initialize to include/nuttx/arch.h
3. Call it from clock subsystem instead up_initialize
Basically, this change make timer initialization almost same as rtc initialization(up_rtc_initialize).
For now, however, we just need to revert the change.
* include: Introduce elf64.h and elf.h
Added elf64.h for 64bit ELF support and moved common definitions
from elf32.h to elf.h. Also introduced Elf_xxx to be used in
common libraries such as binfmt.
* binfmt, include, modlib, module: Add support for ELF64
Elf_xxx must be used instead of Elf32_xxx to support ELF64.
To use ELF64, CONFIG_ELF_64BIT must be enabled.
* binfmt, modlib: Add support for relocate address
* arch: risc-v: Add include/elf.h
* libs: machine: Add risc-v related files.
NOTE: Currently only supports ELF64
* boards: maix-bit: Add elf and posix_spawn configurations
* boards: maix-bit: Add support for module configuration
If SMP is enabled this function will return the number of the CPU that the thread is running on. This is non-standard but follows GLIBC if __GNU_SOURCE is enabled. The returned CPU number is, however, worthless since it returns the CPU number of the CPU that was executing the task when the function was called. The application can never know the true CPU number of the CPU tht it is running on since that value is volatile and change change at any time.
1. Remove the unused and unimplemented ipv6_chksum declaration
2. Update NET_ARCH_CHKSUM description to align with the implementation
3. Declare all checksum function prototype regardless CONFIG_NET_ARCH_CHKSUM
4. Remove the CONFIG_NET_ARCH_CHKSUM guard for tcp_ipv[4|6]_chksum
