This commit refactors port_systick.c so that all ports (RISC-V vs Xtensa) of
all FreeRTOS implementations (IDF vs Amazon SMP FreeRTOS) use the same set of
tick interrupt functions. Thus, these funcitons are now common:
- vPortSetupTimer() to setup the tick interrupt's timer
- xPortSysTickHandler() that is called on each tick interrupt
This commit updates the linker fragment file for Amazon SMP FreeRTOS.
- Linker fragment file's formatting was updated
- Placement rules of functions is now clearly specified inside the linker
fragment file.
- Some extra functions are now placed in flash in accordance to the new
placement rules.
This commit adds a separate linker fragment file "linker_common.lf" for the
functions in "port_common.c". The placement rules are now clearly specified
inside the linker fragment file.
This commit refactors the OS startup functions as follows:
- Moved the OS/app startup functions listed below to "app_startup.c". Their
implementations are now common to all ports (RISC-V and Xtensa) of all
FreeRTOS implementations (IDF and Amazon SMP).
- esp_startup_start_app()
- esp_startup_start_app_other_cores()
- Removed esp_startup_start_app_common() as app startup functions are now
already common to all ports.
- Added extra logs to "main_task" to help with user debugging
Note: Increased startup delay on "unity_task". The "unity_run_menu()" is non
blocking, thus if the main task or other startup tasks have not been freed
by the time "unity_run_menu()" is run, those tasks will be freed the next time
"unity_task" blocks. This could cause some tests to have a memory leak, thus
the "unity_task" startup delay has increased.
The CONFIG_FREERTOS_PLACE_FUNCTIONS_INTO_FLASH allows some FreeRTOS functions to be placed
into flash, thus saving some IRAM. However, this feature was previously not supported for
SMP FreeRTOS.
This commit adds CONFIG_FREERTOS_PLACE_FUNCTIONS_INTO_FLASH support for SMP FreeRTOS. There
are now separate linker fragment files for IDF FreeRTOS and SMP FreeRTOS, named "linker.lf"
and "linker_smp.lf" respectively.
