Hello,

the ESA activity to pre-qualify parts of RTEMS according to ECSS requirements is
nearly complete. There is a short presentation available here:

https://indico.esa.int/event/374/timetable/

Was the change in memory usage for 4.8 of 23812 bytes to 68896 explained?

The foot print increase has mainly five reasons:

* General GCC code generation

* Chip errata workarounds done by GCC

* More features used from RTEMS (for example uniprocessor synchronization done via task priorities vs. mutex synchronization)

* SMP support of RTEMS

* New RTEMS features such as transitive priority inheritance

We finished the specification of the pre-qualified RTEMS feature set. The
specification is available in an RTEMS Project repository:

https://git.rtems.org/rtems-central/tree/spec

I had a quick look. Is there a more user friendly view of this data?

I think the term "specification" is a little bit misleading because the data
files are not easily read by a person. I understand this is the specification
data set however it is not what I am traditionally use to seeing.

You can use the "./specview.py" script to get views of the specification. For example, this command displays the transition map for the rtems_signal_send() directive:

./specview.py --filter=action-table /rtems/signal/req/send
.. table::
    :class: longtable

Here the same information in a different view, for each post-condition set the pre-condition sets are displayed:

./specview.py --filter=action-list /rtems/signal/req/send

Status = Ok, Handler = DuringSend, Recursive = Yes

* Task = Self, Set = NonZero, Handler = Valid, ASR = Enabled, Nested = Yes

Status = Ok, Handler = DuringSend, Recursive = No

* Task = Self, Set = NonZero, Handler = Valid, ASR = Enabled, Nested = No

Status = Ok, Handler = AfterDispatch, Recursive = Yes

* Task = Other, Set = NonZero, Handler = Valid, ASR = Enabled, Nested = Yes

Status = Ok, Handler = AfterDispatch, Recursive = No

* Task = Other, Set = NonZero, Handler = Valid, ASR = Enabled, Nested = No

Status = Ok, Handler = AfterEnable, Recursive = No

* Task = { Self, Other }, Set = NonZero, Handler = Valid, ASR = Disabled, Nested = { Yes, No }

Status = InvId, Handler = NoCall, Recursive = No

* Task = NoObj, Set = NonZero, Handler = { Invalid, Valid }, ASR = { Enabled, Disabled }, Nested = { Yes, No }

Status = NotDef, Handler = NoCall, Recursive = No

* Task = { Self, Other }, Set = NonZero, Handler = Invalid, ASR = { Enabled, Disabled }, Nested = { Yes, No }

Status = InvNum, Handler = NoCall, Recursive = No

* Task = { NoObj, Self, Other }, Set = Zero, Handler = { Invalid, Valid }, ASR = { Enabled, Disabled }, Nested = { Yes, No }



The validation tests are generated from the specification using the
"./spec2modules.py" script and end up in the RTEMS sources of a Git submodule. I
think the specification and the generation tool is now sufficiently stable so
that the validation test code can be integrated in the RTEMS master branch. The
patch set is too big for the mailing list, so you can review it here:

https://git.rtems.org/sebh/rtems.git/log/?h=validation

The link failed.

Yes, viewing my personal repository no longer works. I am not sure if this is a temporary issue. This is why I added the github link.

The header in a test says the regeneration instructions are in the engineering
manual but I could not quickly find them?

https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/eng/req/howto.html#generate-content-after-changes

In an earlier version of the header, we had a link which you didn't like:

The patch set is organized so that general support code for the validation tests
is added first and then there are commits for each pre-qualified Classic API
Manager or subsystem.

I did build all BSPs with the patch set. The validation tests use only
statically allocated resources.

Are the validation tests compatible with rtems-test?

Yes.

How many test executables does this add to the testsuite?

If RTEMS_SMP is disabled, then there are 19 new executables in the patch set. If RTEMS_SMP is enable, then there are 28 new executables.


What hardware have the validation tests been run on? Any tier 1 archs?

I tested with the sparc/leon3 BSPs and the arm/realview_pbx_a9_qemu. You need a full implementation of the new Interrupt Manager directives and a working Cache Manager implementation.

I noticed an issue with the thread restart on aarch64/a53_lp64_qemu.

On powerpc/psim there is an issue in one test case, due to:

#define CPU_ALL_TASKS_ARE_FP CPU_HARDWARE_FP

Another issue is that the tm27 interrupt must be independent of the clock driver interrupt. This is not the case for powerpc/psim.

There is definitely some work left to cover all edge cases. Some tests are quite complicated.


Is there anything that interprets the new test output format? It looks like lots
of great info but a little difficult to read.

EDISOFT worked on a test report generator, however, it is not yet in a reviewable state.


Some low memory targets are not able to link all test suites.

Are these excluded in the normal way?

Yes:
