Smart supermarket toy implementation for Networked Embedded Systems exam on Launchpad CC2650 with contiki-ng
4cdb7ba9b6
This patch extends the protection domain framework with an additional plugin to use Task-State Segment (TSS) structures to offload much of the work of switching protection domains to the CPU. This can save space compared to paging, since paging requires two 4KiB page tables and one 32-byte page table plus one whole-system TSS and an additional 32-byte data structure for each protection domain, whereas the approach implemented by this patch just requires a 128-byte data structure for each protection domain. Only a small number of protection domains will typically be used, so n * 128 < 8328 + (n * 32). For additional information, please refer to cpu/x86/mm/README.md. GCC 6 is introducing named address spaces for the FS and GS segments [1]. LLVM Clang also provides address spaces for the FS and GS segments [2]. This patch also adds support to the multi-segment X86 memory management subsystem for using these features instead of inline assembly blocks, which enables type checking to detect some address space mismatches.

The Contiki Operating System
Contiki is an open source operating system that runs on tiny low-power microcontrollers and makes it possible to develop applications that make efficient use of the hardware while providing standardized low-power wireless communication for a range of hardware platforms.
Contiki is used in numerous commercial and non-commercial systems, such as city sound monitoring, street lights, networked electrical power meters, industrial monitoring, radiation monitoring, construction site monitoring, alarm systems, remote house monitoring, and so on.
