    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Maybe some problem with your sparc-rtems4.11-binutils? What guide are
you following for building your project?

You might like to check out the RTEMS source builder [1] [2]. It has
known-to-work scripts for building RTEMS tools and RTEMS itself for
many different hosts.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi All,
I was able to build  RTEMS-4.10.2 successfully last time. But due to some
reason when I tried to build again, I am getting following "Assembler
Errors". I have checked "sparc-rtems4.11-gcc", it is still working fine
with ordinary ".c"files. Any input what might be the reason for these
errors?

    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.rtems.user/21129</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Gaisler includes code in their RCC which is not in RTEMS.
They periodically submit patches to catch the community
version up on their drivers, etc.

The last time they started merging, there were about 50
individual patches to review and merge. We put leon3 and
sparc specific ones first in the list along with small patches
which were easy to review.

In particular, this code makes capabilities available to all targets
and BSPs. It was put at the bottom of the review list because of
this.

We are waiting for Gaisler personnel to have time to revisit the
review and merge process.  It may show up in 4.11.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I am trying to port RTEMS on LEON3(GR-XCS Development Board). While
referring to "Gaisler RTEMS Driver Documentation", I found that a driver
manager is responsible for managing the drivers in RTEMS bsp for Leon3. But
the RTEMS-4.10.2 source code which I cloned from the repository doesn't
have any directory named "cpukit/libdrvmgr".
Can someone please explain why it is so?

Thanks

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I don't think you configured any extra file descriptors. I am on my phone but it should be CONFIGURE_LIBIO_MAXIMUM_FILE_DESCRIPTORS or something very similar to that.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;We have received a similar notice for our mvme6100s.
I don't know if it is the same issue but with the 6100 the
problem is that the manufacturer can no longer get the
RAM they used for the L3 cache. The new version will have
a slower L3.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I think this was entirely a false alarm.  Emerson replaced the MVME5500 with a new model number with a "-R" on the end ("respun") and end-of-lifed the earlier one. I think this is just confusion on the part of Arrow and the way they dealt with people in purchasing at my client, people who would have no way to realize the "-R" model number is probably compatible.

Yes, we'll need to double-check things, but I expect the "respun" board will work just fine.

Two years ago Emerson issued a press release saying the MVME5500 would be in production at least through 2016, I expect that is still their plan.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I don't think this is much of a concern.


To summarize the bug, when a nested lock is obtained and priority is
inherited, the thread's current_priority is saved. When the nested
lock is released, the current_priority is restored without checking
what the highest priority is on the outer lock. So there may be a
thread blocked on the outer lock with a higher priority than the
thread that just released the inner lock.

I think we need to fix this bug and enable strict order all the time.
I want to know what are the options to fix it?

Would it be possible to fix the bug by updating the stored value of
the current_priority to the inherited value of the outer lock while
the holder is executing (or blocked!) on the nested lock? If blocked
on the nested lock, the holder of the nested lock may also need to be
inherited from the priority of the outer lock even if the outer lock
is not held due to the transitive priority of the holder of the outer
lock.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

It looks like rtems_timer_fire_after() is a one time only timer, you need
to call rtems_timer_fire_after() to generate another.

The documentation does not seem to indicate that, is it possible a small
update could be made for clarity.

I wrongly presumed it was a repeating timer that would go until you
cancelled the timer.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;The likely cause is that the default compiler settings are not for the greatest precision and favor speed. There should be lots of threads on the GCC mailing lists about this.

As far as I know, stack overflow, and floating point exception
handlers not being installed are possible reasons of failure. Am I
doing something wrong?

I have.

An mvme167 and an mvme162, in an active military project. And I can
assure you, they have no desire to replace it.

I don't think there is anything about those particular cards that makes 
then attractive to the military,
other than many of these programs are shoestring in nature. Most of 
their hardware are leftovers
from other projects.They get there contracts based on being ready to 
perform work.
Within this niche, there is little room, in terms of money, or time to 
rebuild an already working system
with new hardware.


I've been trying to find an mvme162 on ebay for a while. They show up 
but for some
bizarre reason, they are 4 or more times the cost of an mvme177. An 
mvme167 is cheaper
than an mvme162 but still about twice as expensive as an mvme177.

Again, I believe this has to do with legacy code, and existing 
development systems.

I suspect there is no relationship to military use. I have not seen a 
MVME167 in a system since the '90s. Most processing boards I came across 
where Radstone, DY4 or something similar (I cannot remember who made the 
UltraSparc boards in the NATO AWACS). Maybe there is a control market 
that is keeping the MVME167 going. Who knows.

My exposure to this type of thing in the military world saw them manage 
procurement for the life of the project within the project. I have seen 
a chip mask be pulled from escrow and taken somewhere and remade to keep 
a board going.

I suggest you contact the manufacture and openly discuss the issue and 
become registered for final buy type announcements. I suspect they maybe 
looking at a final chip run for something on the board because someone 
wants to close the line down so they will be after quantities. It might 
not be the processor and could be any chip on the board.
