With this patch, one could define two alias for the same function like:
FINSH_FUNCTION_EXPORT_ALIAS(rt_hw_cpu_reset, reboot, reboot the cpu);
FINSH_FUNCTION_EXPORT_ALIAS(rt_hw_cpu_reset, __cmd_reboot, reboot the cpu);
Suitable for being used in MSH/Finsh.
When forwarding rx/tx callback from the underlaying device(pipe), the
"dev" argument should be the portal. So the portal callback could think
itself as called.
Portal is a device that connect devices. Currently, you can only connect
pipes in portal. Pipes are unidirectional. But with portal, you can
construct a bidirectional device with two pipes.
Some reader(FinSh again) would like to block on a semaphore which is
released in rx_indicate. So we should invoke rx_indicate in
_rt_pipe_resume_reader.
The previous implementation will always blocks the reader/writer.
However, at least FinSh would expect the device to be nonblocking ---
read should return 0 when there is no data in it.
RT_RINGBUFFER_SIZE could mean "the size of the whole buffer", "the size
of the empty space" or "the size of the data". Moreover, it's never a
micro anymore. Change it to rt_ringbuffer_data_len before it's too late.
Also, RT_RINGBUFFER_EMPTY is changed to rt_ringbuffer_space_len.
This provide the possibility that allocate the buffer of the ringbuffer
on a specific region, instead of always mallocing it. It also bring us
the benefit of using pipe device on the systems without heap.
Logtrace is a component that could output the log into either a device
or a file. It has the ability to filter the log messages according to a
pre-module level. Define RT_USING_LOGTRACE in rtconfig.h if you want to
have a try.
