Operation mode

* A thread is an abstraction of an independent instructions flow. * In ChibiOS/RT a thread is represented by a "C" function owning * a processor context, state informations and a dedicated stack * area. In this scenario static variables are shared among all * threads while automatic variables are local to the thread.
* Operations defined for threads: * - Create, a thread is started on the specified thread * function. This operation is available in multiple variants, * both static and dynamic. * - Exit, a thread terminates by returning from its top * level function or invoking a specific API, the thread can * return a value that can be retrieved by other threads. * - Wait, a thread waits for the termination of another * thread and retrieves its return value. * - Resume, a thread created in suspended state is started. * - Sleep, the execution of a thread is suspended for the * specified amount of time or the specified future absolute time * is reached. * - SetPriority, a thread changes its own priority level. * - Yield, a thread voluntarily renounces to its time slot. * . * The threads subsystem is implicitly included in kernel however * some of its part may be excluded by disabling them in @p chconf.h, * see the @p CH_CFG_USE_WAITEXIT and @p CH_CFG_USE_DYNAMIC configuration * options. * @{ */ #include "ch.h" /*===========================================================================*/ /* Module local definitions. */ /*===========================================================================*/ /*===========================================================================*/ /* Module exported variables. */ /*===========================================================================*/ /*===========================================================================*/ /* Module local types. */ /*===========================================================================*/ /*===========================================================================*/ /* Module local variables. */ /*===========================================================================*/ /*===========================================================================*/ /* Module local functions. */ /*===========================================================================*/ /*===========================================================================*/ /* Module exported functions. */ /*===========================================================================*/ /** * @brief Initializes a thread structure. * @note This is an internal functions, do not use it in application code. * * @param[in] tp pointer to the thread * @param[in] prio the priority level for the new thread * @return The same thread pointer passed as parameter. * * @notapi */ thread_t *_thread_init(thread_t *tp, tprio_t prio) { tp->p_prio = prio; tp->p_state = CH_STATE_SUSPENDED; tp->p_flags = CH_FLAG_MODE_STATIC; #if CH_CFG_TIME_QUANTUM > 0 tp->p_preempt = CH_CFG_TIME_QUANTUM; #endif #if CH_CFG_USE_MUTEXES tp->p_realprio = prio; tp->p_mtxlist = NULL; #endif #if CH_CFG_USE_EVENTS tp->p_epending = 0; #endif #if CH_DBG_THREADS_PROFILING tp->p_time = 0; #endif #if CH_CFG_USE_DYNAMIC tp->p_refs = 1; #endif #if CH_CFG_USE_REGISTRY tp->p_name = NULL; REG_INSERT(tp); #endif #if CH_CFG_USE_WAITEXIT list_init(&tp->p_waiting); #endif #if CH_CFG_USE_MESSAGES queue_init(&tp->p_msgqueue); #endif #if CH_DBG_ENABLE_STACK_CHECK tp->p_stklimit = (stkalign_t *)(tp + 1); #endif #if defined(CH_CFG_THREAD_INIT_HOOK) CH_CFG_THREAD_INIT_HOOK(tp); #endif return tp; } #if CH_DBG_FILL_THREADS || defined(__DOXYGEN__) /** * @brief Memory fill utility. * * @param[in] startp first address to fill * @param[in] endp last address to fill +1 * @param[in] v filler value * * @notapi */ void _thread_memfill(uint8_t *startp, uint8_t *endp, uint8_t v) { while (startp < endp) *startp++ = v; } #endif /* CH_DBG_FILL_THREADS */ /** * @brief Creates a new thread into a static memory area. * @details The new thread is initialized but not inserted in the ready list, * the initial state is @p CH_STATE_SUSPENDED. * @post The initialized thread can be subsequently started by invoking * @p chThdResume(), @p chThdResumeI() or @p chSchWakeupS() * depending on the execution context. * @note A thread can terminate by calling @p chThdExit() or by simply * returning from its main function. * @note Threads created using this function do not obey to the * @p CH_DBG_FILL_THREADS debug option because it would keep * the kernel locked for too much time. * * @param[out] wsp pointer to a working area dedicated to the thread stack * @param[in] size size of the working area * @param[in] prio the priority level for the new thread * @param[in] pf the thread function * @param[in] arg an argument passed to the thread function.
