patacongo f0d12c1db3 arch/c5471/include and arch/dm320/include are not identical. This is in preparation to replace arch/c5471 and arch/dm320 with arch/arm

NuttX TODO List
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
o Task/Scheduler
- When a tasks exits, shouldn't all of its child pthreads also be terminated?
- Should task_delete() cause atexit() function to be called?
- Implement sys/mman.h and functions
- Implement sys/wait.h and functions
- Implement priority inheritance
- Make the system timer frequency configurable via defconfig. See:
_POSIX_CLOCKRES_MIN in limits.h
CLK_TCK in time.h
MSEC_PER_TICK in sched/clock_internal.h
- Consider implementing wait, waitpid, waitid. At present, a parent has
no information about child tasks.
- Several APIs do not set errno. Need to review all APIs.
o Memory Managment
- Add an option to free all memory allocated by a task when the task exits.
This is probably not be worth the overhead for a deeply embedded system.
o Signals
- 'Standard' signals and signal actions are not supported.
o pthreads
- pthread_cancel(): Should implemenent cancellation points and pthread_testcancel()
o Network
- Port FreeBSD TCP/IP stack
o USB
o Libraries
o File system
- Add some concept like mount points to handle mounted "real" filesystems.
o Console Output
o Documentation
- Document fs/ & driver/ logic
- Document C-library APIs
o Build system
- Names under arch are incorrect. These should hold processor architectures.
c5471 and dm320 should be arm
pjrc-8051 should be 805x
- SoC-specific logic should be in subdirectories under arch/<processor-name>.
Eg. arm/include/c5471 should hold c5471 specific header files
- configs/pjrc-8051 should be configs/pjrc-87c52
o Applications & Tests
o C5471
o DM320
o pjrc-8052 / MCS51
- Current status:
- Basic OS task management seems OK
- Fails when interrupts enabled. The stack pointer is around 0x6e
before the failure occurs. It looks like some issue when the
stack pointer moves from the directly to indirectly addressable
region (0x80 boundary).
- Work on the 8052 is temporarily on hold
- Use timer 0 as system timer. Timer 2 is needed for second UART.
Logic is implemented, but there needs to be a system configuration
to change the ticks-per-second value to match the timer interrupt
rate
- During build, there are several integer overflows reported:
