A port of TNKernel for PIC32
TNKernel-PIC32 is a new, independent port of TNKernel 2.6, based on the Cortex-M3 version.
##Context switch The context switch is implemented using the core software 0 interrupt. It should be configured to use the lowest priority in the system:
// set up the software interrupt 0 with a priority of 1, subpriority 0
INTSetVectorPriority(INT_CORE_SOFTWARE_0_VECTOR, INT_PRIORITY_LEVEL_1);
INTSetVectorSubPriority(INT_CORE_SOFTWARE_0_VECTOR, INT_SUB_PRIORITY_LEVEL_0);
INTEnable(INT_CS0, INT_ENABLED);
The interrupt priority level used by the context switch interrupt should not be configured to use shadow register sets.
##Interrupts TNKernel-PIC32 supports nested interrupts. The kernel provides assembly-language macros for calling C-language interrupt service routines. Both software and shadow register interrupt context saving is supported:
#include "tn_port_asm.h"
#define _CORE_TIMER_VECTOR 0
#define _INT_UART_1_VECTOR 24
# Core timer interrupt handler using software interrupt context saving
tn_soft_isr CoreTimerHandler _CORE_TIMER_VECTOR
# High-priority UART interrupt handler using shadow register set
tn_srs_isr UartHandler _INT_UART_1_VECTOR
##Interrupt stack
TNKernel-PIC32 supports using a separate stack for interrupt handlers. The feature is enabled by adding TN_INT_STACK to the preprocessor definitions in your project (for both C and assembly language files). Switching stack pointers is done automatically in the ISR handler wrapper macros. The size of the interrupt stack in words is configured in tn_port.h:
#define TN_INT_STACK_SIZE 256
The kernel is released under the BSD license as follows:
TNKernel real-time kernel
