Hello,
here is a patch to add ARMv6 and ARMv7 (Cortex A8/A9) to
RTT. Although this port has only been
tested on a single processor architecture (ARM Cortex-A8, ARMv7 instruction
set), this port should support ARMv6 architecture and also multi-core SMP
architectures (ARM Cortex A9). I will have the opportunity to validate
the operation on a Cortex-A9 MPcore in the coming months.
I would have liked to incorporate support for older ARM architectures (ARMv5
and under), but unfortunately I had a lot of strange problems (assert,
exception, race conditions, etc.) with the arm-port branch
that is available in Peter's github account. I really suspect that there
is a problem with ARM atomic operations that can be foundin this branch.
Philippe

[patch] Add ARMv6 and ARMv7 support
Hi,
Are those patches integrated somewhere ? I was wondering about arm
situation. The sources from 2.6 doesn't contain anything about arm.

Hi Willy,
these patches were not integrated because the support for ARM architecture
is now implemented through the more generic GCC built-in atomic operations
(see RTT "oro_gcc" target).

Ok, thanks, so if I want to use an other compilator than gcc I have no way
to do this currently ?

Yes, you're correct.
