const GateHWSem.Q_BLOCKING = 1;
#define GateHWSem_Q_BLOCKING (Int)1
DETAILS
Gates with this "quality" may cause the calling thread to block;
i.e., suspend execution until another thread leaves the gate.

Preempting quality
XDCscript usage |
meta-domain |

Gates with this "quality" allow other threads to preempt the thread
that has already entered the gate.

metaonly config GateHWSem.common$ // module-wide |
 |
Common module configuration parameters
XDCscript usage |
meta-domain |
DETAILS
All modules have this configuration parameter. Its name
contains the '$' character to ensure it does not conflict with
configuration parameters declared by the module. This allows
new configuration parameters to be added in the future without
any chance of breaking existing modules.
GateHWSem.query( ) // module-wide |
 |
Runtime test for a particular gate quality
Bool GateHWSem_query( Int qual );
ARGUMENTS
qual
constant describing a quality
RETURNS
Returns TRUE if the gate has the given quality,
and FALSE otherwise, which includes the case when the gate does not
recognize the constant describing the quality.
GateHWSem.sharedMemReq( ) // module-wide |
 |
Amount of shared memory required for creation of each instance
ARGUMENTS
params
Pointer to the parameters that will be used in
the create.
DETAILS
The value returned by this function may depend on the cache alignment
requirements for the shared region from which memory will be used.
RETURNS
Number of MAUs needed to create the instance.
metaonly GateHWSem.getNumResources( ) // module-wide |
 |
Number of gates instance within the module
XDCscript usage |
meta-domain |
GateHWSem.getNumResources( ) returns UInt
metaonly GateHWSem.queryMeta( ) // module-wide |
 |
Configuration time test for a particular gate quality
XDCscript usage |
meta-domain |
GateHWSem.queryMeta( Int qual ) returns Bool
ARGUMENTS
qual
constant describing a quality
RETURNS
Returns TRUE if the gate has the given quality,
and FALSE otherwise, which includes the case when the gate does not
recognize the constant describing the quality.

Params;
// Allocate instance config-params
params.config = ...
// Assign individual configs
// Create an instance-object
// Allocate and initialize a new instance object and return its handle
// Initialize a new instance object inside the provided structure
ARGUMENTS
params
per-instance config params, or NULL to select default values (target-domain only)
eb
active error-handling block, or NULL to select default policy (target-domain only)
per-instance deletion |
 |
// Finalize and free this previously allocated instance object, setting the referenced handle to NULL
// Finalize the instance object inside the provided structure
GateHWSem.enter( ) // per-instance |
 |
Enter this gate
ARGUMENTS
handle
handle of a previously-created GateHWSem instance object
DETAILS
Each gate provider can implement mutual exclusion using different
algorithms; e.g., disabling all scheduling, disabling the scheduling
of all threads below a specified "priority level", suspending the
caller when the gate has been entered by another thread and
re-enabling it when the the other thread leaves the gate. However,
in all cases, after this method returns that caller has exclusive
access to the data protected by this gate.
A thread may reenter a gate without blocking or failing.
RETURNS
Returns a "key" that is used to
leave this gate; this
value is used to restore thread preemption to the state that
existed just prior to entering this gate.
GateHWSem.leave( ) // per-instance |
 |
Leave this gate
ARGUMENTS
handle
handle of a previously-created GateHWSem instance object
key
the value returned by a matching call to
enter
DETAILS
This method is only called by threads that have previously entered
this gate via
enter. After this method returns, the
caller must not access the data structure protected by this gate
(unless the caller has entered the gate more than once and other
calls to
leave remain to balance the number of previous
calls to
enter).
