问题 Using arm-none-eabi-gcc for Cortex-M4 (baremetal application), the code for malloc is also emitted even though I never use malloc in my code. Seeing the assembly output with arm-none-eabi-objdump -xS obj.elf , it seems that malloc is called by __register_exitproc called by atexit called by register_fini 004036a8 <register_fini>: 4036a8: 4b02 ldr r3, [pc, #8] ; (4036b4 <register_fini+0xc>) 4036aa: b113 cbz r3, 4036b2 <register_fini+0xa> 4036ac: 4802 ldr r0, [pc, #8] ; (4036b8 <register_fini

What is Qt Bare Metal?

五迷三道 提交于 2019-12-03 14:08:48
QtCreator has a plugin named "Bare Metal". Bare Metal means a computer without an operating system. I have not seen much about Qt Bare Metal development. Is it a way to develop Qt for a bare metal system? Does Qt run on a system with no OS? If yes, what are the advantages of this approach for embedded system development? Is it a way to develop Qt for a bare metal system? No. Does Qt run on a system with no OS? No. Bare Metal means you usually have a few KB of RAM and ROM. I think you are confusing Qt (framework) with QtCreator (IDE). Tim Sander explains it clearly here at the Qt Developer Days

UART communication in Gem5 with ARM Bare-metal

感情迁移 提交于 2019-12-01 20:28:07
I am currently working with Gem5 and I have to access via UART from my Host to ARMv8 bare-metal option, so i tried lots way but i stocked yet. could you please let me know, how can i map my host's Serial port to ARMv8's Serial Port in bare-metal type programming. Any help would be appreciated Working setups This repository contains a highly automated working example . Features: works on both QEMU and gem5 works on both arm and aarch64 newlib allows using the standard C library optionally semihosting exemplified works on both RealViewPBX and VExpress_GEM5_V1 . You should prefer VExpress_GEM5_V1

Critical sections in ARM

和自甴很熟 提交于 2019-12-01 17:00:56
I am experienced in implementing critical sections on the AVR family of processors, where all you do is disable interrupts (with a memory barrier of course), do the critical operation, and then reenable interrupts: void my_critical_function() { cli(); //Disable interrupts // Mission critical code here sei(); //Enable interrupts } Now my question is this: Does this simple method apply to the ARM architecture of processor as well? I have heard things about the processor doing lookahead on the instructions, and other black magic, and was wondering primarily if these types of things could be

How to cleanly exit QEMU after executing bare metal program without user intervention?

I am assembling a cross compiling unit testing rig for an ARM system and running the tests on a host machine with qemu-system-arm . Specifically, I'm using qemu to emulate the Stellaris LM3S6965 eval board as it contains a Cortex M3 processor like my target environment. The binary run in qemu is built with GNU Tools for ARM. There is no OS involved. The test suite is run as a bare metal application with qemu in -nographic mode. The toolchain and the test rig itself are working fine. And the tests successfully run to completion and produce test results within qemu just fine as well. The problem

Docker on bare metal?

问题 On the Docker website I see mention of Docker on "bare metal". Does this mean that you can run Docker on hardware with no underlying OS? If so, how would one install/implement it? 回答1: It's a bit deceptive but I'm pretty sure they mean that they ship a Ubuntu distro you can install on an unformated (no-OS) computer. Having said that the instructions I found assume you will find and install the OS yourself: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/ubuntu/ It could also simply mean
