To use these features, buffers are needed to be allocated in the uncached area and be eight-bytes aligned. - Support Link Mode on DMAC driver.
- Fixed the compilation issue on CRU driver in C++ project.
- Fixed the build issue on CANFD driver created under multiple threads.
Deprecations
- None
Known Issues
Please refer to Getting Started with RZ/A FSP.
Limitations
- RZ/A FSP runs under AArch64 mode only and won't run under AArch32 mode.
- USB driver does not support multistage hub connections.
- Up to 2 devices can be connected under the Hub with USB driver.
- Building C++ projects in the current release of RZ/A FSP may result in errors due to issues on linker and runtime configurations. Follow the steps below to resolve the issue.
-
Modify Linker Script
Add the following lines to the end of the.text
section inscript/{board_name}.ld
:KEEP (*(.gcc_except_table .gcc_except_table.*)) KEEP(*(.eh_frame*))
-
Add Dummy Global Destructor Support
Include the following code above thehal_entry
function insrc/hal_entry.cpp
:extern "C" int __cxa_atexit(void (*destructor)(void*), void* arg, void* dso_handle); extern "C" int __cxa_atexit(void (*destructor)(void*), void* arg, void* dso_handle) { (void) destructor; (void) arg; (void) dso_handle; return 0; } void* __dso_handle = nullptr;
-
Add System Call Stubs
Insert the following code intosrc/syscalls.c
:int _getpid(void); int _getpid(void) { return 0; } int _kill(int pid, int sig); int _kill(int pid, int sig) { (void) pid; (void) sig; return 0; } int _open(const char* name, int flags, int mode); int _open(const char* name, int flags, int mode) { (void) name; (void) flags; (void) mode; return 0; } void _exit(int status); void _exit(int status) { (void) status; _write(1, "FSP exit\n", 9); while (1) { ; } }

Note
Exception levels for the program using RTOS
Exception levels for the program using FreeRTOS
- The RTOS executes at EL3 (Exception Level 3), and uses the EL3 stack.
- Tasks execute at EL3, using the EL3 stack when handling interrupts and the EL0 stack in the normal state.
Exception levels for the program using ThreadX
- ThreadX RTOS executes at EL3 and uses only the EL0 stack.
