Description

Core interrupt handling API.

Introduction

CORE interrupt API provides a simple and safe means to disable and enable interrupts to protect sections of code.

This is often referred to as "critical sections". This module provides support for three types of critical sections, each with different interrupt blocking capabilities.

CRITICAL section: Inside a critical section, all interrupts are disabled (except for fault handlers). The PRIMASK register is always used for interrupt disable/enable.
ATOMIC section: This type of section is configurable and the default method is to use PRIMASK. With BASEPRI configuration, interrupts with priority equal to or lower than a given configurable level are disabled. The interrupt disable priority level is defined at compile time. The BASEPRI register is not available for all architectures.
NVIC mask section: Disable NVIC (external interrupts) on an individual manner.

em_core also has an API for manipulating RAM-based interrupt vector tables.

Compile-time Configuration

The following #defines are used to configure em_core:

       
        // The interrupt priority level used inside ATOMIC sections.
       
        #define CORE_ATOMIC_BASE_PRIORITY_LEVEL    3
       
        // A method used for interrupt disable/enable within ATOMIC sections.
       
        #define CORE_ATOMIC_METHOD                 CORE_ATOMIC_METHOD_PRIMASK

If the default values do not support your needs, they can be overridden by supplying -D compiler flags on the compiler command line or by collecting all macro redefinitions in a file named emlib_config.h and then supplying -DEMLIB_USER_CONFIG on a compiler command line.

Note: The default emlib configuration for ATOMIC section interrupt disable method is using PRIMASK, i.e., ATOMIC sections are implemented as CRITICAL sections.; Due to architectural limitations Cortex-M0+ devices do not support ATOMIC type critical sections using the BASEPRI register. On M0+ devices ATOMIC section helper macros are available but they are implemented as CRITICAL sections using PRIMASK register.

Macro API

The primary em_core API is the macro API. Macro API will map to correct CORE functions according to the selected CORE_ATOMIC_METHOD and similar configurations (the full CORE API is of course also available). The most useful macros are as follows:

CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE
CORE_ENTER_ATOMIC()
CORE_EXIT_ATOMIC()
Used together to implement an ATOMIC section.

       {
      
        CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE
       
       ;
       
        // Storage for saving IRQ state prior to
       
        // atomic section entry.
       
        CORE_ENTER_ATOMIC
       
       ();
       
        // Enter atomic section.
       
       ...
      
       ... your code goes here ...
      
       ...
      
        CORE_EXIT_ATOMIC
       
       ();
       
        // Exit atomic section, IRQ state is restored.
       
       }

CORE_ATOMIC_SECTION(yourcode)
A concatenation of all three macros above.

       {
      
        CORE_ATOMIC_SECTION
       
       (
      
       ...
      
       ... your code goes here ...
      
       ...
      
       )
      
       }

CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE
CORE_ENTER_CRITICAL()
CORE_EXIT_CRITICAL()
CORE_CRITICAL_SECTION(yourcode)
These macros implement CRITICAL sections in a similar fashion as described above for ATOMIC sections.

CORE_DECLARE_NVIC_STATE
CORE_ENTER_NVIC()
CORE_EXIT_NVIC()
CORE_NVIC_SECTION(yourcode)
These macros implement NVIC mask sections in a similar fashion as described above for ATOMIC sections. See Examples for an example.

Refer to Macros or Macro Definition Documentation below for a full list of macros.

API reimplementation

Most of the functions in the API are implemented as weak functions. This means that it is easy to reimplement when special needs arise. Shown below is a reimplementation of CRITICAL sections suitable if FreeRTOS OS is used:

       
        CORE_irqState_t
       
        CORE_EnterCritical
       
       (
       
        void
       
       )
      
       {
      
       vPortEnterCritical();
      
        return
       
       0;
      
       }
      
        void
       
        CORE_ExitCritical
       
       (
       
        CORE_irqState_t
       
       irqState)
      
       {
      
       (void)irqState;
      
       vPortExitCritical();
      
       }

Also note that CORE_Enter/ExitCritical() are not implemented as inline functions. As a result, reimplementations will be possible even when original implementations are inside a linked library.

Some RTOSes must be notified on interrupt handler entry and exit. Macros CORE_INTERRUPT_ENTRY() and CORE_INTERRUPT_EXIT() are suitable placeholders for inserting such code. Insert these macros in all your interrupt handlers and then override the default macro implementations. This is an example if uC/OS is used:

       
        // In emlib_config.h:
       
        #define CORE_INTERRUPT_ENTRY()   OSIntEnter()
       
        #define CORE_INTERRUPT_EXIT()    OSIntExit()

Interrupt vector tables

When using RAM based interrupt vector tables it is the user's responsibility to allocate the table space correctly. The tables must be aligned as specified in the CPU reference manual.

CORE_InitNvicVectorTable()
Initialize a RAM based vector table by copying table entries from a source vector table to a target table. VTOR is set to the address of the target vector table.

CORE_GetNvicRamTableHandler()
CORE_SetNvicRamTableHandler()
Use these functions to get or set the interrupt handler for a specific IRQn. They both use the interrupt vector table defined by the current VTOR register value.

Maximum Interrupt Disabled Time

The maximum time spent (in cycles) in critical and atomic sections can be measured for performance and interrupt latency analysis. To activate this feature, the Cycle Counter driver must be included in the project. To enable the timings, use the SL_EMLIB_CORE_ENABLE_INTERRUPT_DISABLED_TIMING configuration option. When enabled, the functions
CORE_get_max_time_critical_section()
CORE_get_max_time_atomic_section()
can be used to get the max timings since startup.

Examples

Implement an NVIC critical section:

       {
      
        CORE_DECLARE_NVIC_ZEROMASK
       
       (mask);
       
        // A zero initialized NVIC disable mask
       
        // Set mask bits for IRQs to block in the NVIC critical section.
       
        // In many cases, you can create the disable mask once upon application
       
        // startup and use the mask globally throughout the application lifetime.
       
        CORE_NvicMaskSetIRQ
       
       (LEUART0_IRQn, &mask);
      
        CORE_NvicMaskSetIRQ
       
       (VCMP_IRQn,    &mask);
      
        // Enter NVIC critical section with the disable mask
       
        CORE_NVIC_SECTION
       
       (&mask,
      
       ...
      
       ... your code goes here ...
      
       ...
      
       )
      
       }

Porting from em_int

Existing code using INT_Enable() and INT_Disable() must be ported to the em_core API. While em_int used, a global counter to store the interrupt state, em_core uses a local variable. Any usage of INT_Disable(), therefore, needs to be replaced with a declaration of the interrupt state variable before entering the critical section.

Since the state variable is in local scope, the critical section exit needs to occur within the scope of the variable. If multiple nested critical sections are used, each needs to have its own state variable in its own scope.

In many cases, completely disabling all interrupts using CRITICAL sections might be more heavy-handed than needed. When porting, consider whether other types of sections, such as ATOMIC or NVIC mask, can be used to only disable a subset of the interrupts.

Replacing em_int calls with em_core function calls:

       
        void
       
       func(
       
        void
       
       )
      
       {
      
        // INT_Disable();
       
        CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE
       
       ;
      
        CORE_ENTER_ATOMIC
       
       ();
      
       .
      
       .
      
       .
      
        // INT_Enable();
       
        CORE_EXIT_ATOMIC
       
       ();
      
       }
