Hello,
I will produce quite a lot of patches in the next couple of days. They contain
mostly mechanical changes.
I intend to move all definitions not relevant for the application visible API
to *impl.h files. This greatly reduces the dependencies of source files. It
will also address some cyclic dependencies that are currently hidden due to the
usage of macros.
The main goal is to address the following problem. If you use
_SMP_Get_current_processor() as an index to the per CPU information, then
thread dispatching must be disabled, since otherwise the value may be wrong
after a thread migration.
I plan to add some sort of RTEMS assertions that can be controlled with
RTEMS_DEBUG instead of NDEBUG. This is very helpful to find bugs like the above.
