Epiphany Specific Information
*****************************
This chapter discusses the`Epiphany Architecture
http://adapteva.com/docs/epiphany_sdk_ref.pdf dependencies in this port of
RTEMS. Epiphany is a chip that can come with 16 and 64 cores, each of which can
run RTEMS separately or they can work together to run a SMP RTEMS application.
**Architecture Documents**
For information on the Epiphany architecture refer to the *Epiphany
Architecture Reference* http://adapteva.com/docs/epiphany_arch_ref.pdf.
Calling Conventions
===================
Please refer to the *Epiphany SDK*
http://adapteva.com/docs/epiphany_sdk_ref.pdf Appendix A: Application Binary
Interface
Floating Point Unit
-------------------
A floating point unit is currently not supported.
Memory Model
============
A flat 32-bit memory model is supported, no caches. Each core has its own 32
KiB strictly ordered local memory along with an access to a shared 32 MiB
external DRAM.
Interrupt Processing
====================
Every Epiphany core has 10 exception types:
- Reset
- Software Exception
- Data Page Fault
- Timer 0
- Timer 1
- Message Interrupt
- DMA0 Interrupt
- DMA1 Interrupt
- WANT Interrupt
- User Interrupt
Interrupt Levels
----------------
There are only two levels: interrupts enabled and interrupts disabled.
Interrupt Stack
---------------
The Epiphany RTEMS port uses a dedicated software interrupt stack. The stack
for interrupts is allocated during interrupt driver initialization. When an
interrupt is entered, the _ISR_Handler routine is responsible for switching
from the interrupted task stack to RTEMS software interrupt stack.
Default Fatal Error Processing
==============================
The default fatal error handler for this architecture performs the following
actions:
- disables operating system supported interrupts (IRQ),
- places the error code in ``r0``, and
- executes an infinite loop to simulate a halt processor instruction.
Symmetric Multiprocessing
=========================
SMP is not supported.
Due to an unmaintained toolchain (internal errors in GCC, no FSF GDB
integration) the Epiphany architecture was obsoleted in
RTEMS 5.1 and removed in RTEMS 6.1.
