Merge @nandojve work ARM: Introduce gigadevice gd32f403 in here. If his PR have been merged, we need update our GD32F4xx Module again. |
Hello @cameled , Nice to see that your team is looking to use GD32 with Zephyr. We have been working to enable it and I hope we can help each other. The RFC can be read at zephyrproject-rtos#38657. Until we get zephyrproject-rtos#38661 in main tree there could be some changes. I would recommend you look at zephyrproject-rtos/hal_gigadevice#1 to understand yaml files from your SoC version. It will be necessary to enable pinctrl on it. I encourage your team to open PRs to upstream code. |
Hi @nandojve We have the plan to contribute GD32F405/407 and GD32F450 SoCs and GD32F450Z-EVAL board support to Zephyr project. |
Yes, but I may have access to a GD32F450-EVAL at principle. I know that more people is interested on GD32F450 and there will be more people involved. I can help with GD32F405/407 reviews. Since GD32F405/407 and GD32F450 uses same firmware API there is no issues to test code only with GD32F450 for the upstream. |
Done with branch gd32f405. |
This patch reworks how fragments are handled in the net_buf infrastructure. In particular, it removes the union around the node and frags members in the main net_buf structure. This is done so that both can be used at the same time, at a cost of 4 bytes per net_buf instance. This implies that the layout of net_buf instances changes whenever being inserted into a queue (fifo or lifo) or a linked list (slist). Until now, this is what happened when enqueueing a net_buf with frags in a queue or linked list: 1.1 Before enqueueing: +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ |#1 node|\ |#2 node|\ |#3 node|\ | | \ | | \ | | \ | frags |------| frags |------| frags |------NULL +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ net_buf #1 has 2 fragments, net_bufs #2 and #3. Both the node and frags pointers (they are the same, since they are unioned) point to the next fragment. 1.2 After enqueueing: +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ |q/slist |------|#1 node|------|#2 node|------|#3 node|------|q/slist | |node | | *flag | / | *flag | / | | / |node | | | | frags |/ | frags |/ | frags |/ | | +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ When enqueing a net_buf (in this case #1) that contains fragments, the current net_buf implementation actually enqueues all the fragments (in this case #2 and #3) as actual queue/slist items, since node and frags are one and the same in memory. This makes the enqueuing operation expensive and it makes it impossible to atomically dequeue. The `*flag` notation here means that the `flags` member has been set to `NET_BUF_FRAGS` in order to be able to reconstruct the frags pointers when dequeuing. After this patch, the layout changes considerably: 2.1 Before enqueueing: +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ |#1 node|--NULL |#2 node|--NULL |#3 node|--NULL | | | | | | | frags |-------| frags |-------| frags |------NULL +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ This is very similar to 1.1, except that now node and frags are different pointers, so node is just set to NULL. 2.2 After enqueueing: +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ |q/slist |-------|#1 node|-------|q/slist | |node | | | |node | | | | frags | | | +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ | +--------+ +--------+ | |#2 node|--NULL |#3 node|--NULL | | | | | +------------| frags |-------| frags |------NULL +--------+ +--------+ When enqueuing net_buf #1, now we only enqueue that very item, instead of enqueing the frags as well, since now node and frags are separate pointers. This simplifies the operation and makes it atomic. Resolves zephyrproject-rtos#52718. Signed-off-by: Carles Cufi <carles.cufi@nordicsemi.no>
