[avr-gcc-list] int32_t Support

2006-09-13 Thread User Tomdean
I need to use int32_t and do left and right shifts on them. I sometimes see strange values. In trying to isolate this, I see wrapping at 16 bits. Is support for int32_t implemented? In stdint.h, I see, after #ifdef DOXYGEN typedef unsigned long int uint32_t; typedef signed long int

Here is a reduced application that reproduces the problem. It may not be minimal. The compiler is # avr-gcc --version avr-gcc (GCC) 3.4.6 The command line is # avr-gcc -mmcu=atmega8515 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes \ -Os -I. -c -S sbi-test.s sbi-test.c In sbi-test.s, the two statements,

[avr-gcc-list] Interrupt Signal Names

2006-08-16 Thread User Tomdean
What is the preferred interrupt signal name to use. I normally, by habit, use the SIG_ names, I guess a holdover from UNIX. (I use FreeBSD) I see, in iom8515.h, the same definitions named _vect. Either will work. I seem to have missed something. What is preferred in new code?

The difference is in the compiler and the code it supplies for the handler. Section 6.20.6, SIGNAL(...). Section 6.20.4, INTERRUPT(...). Lookup the respective __attribute__ in the gcc documents. In avr/signal.h, /** \def SIGNAL(signame) \ingroup avr_interrupts \code#include

Sorry, I omitted, build one of each and look at the output of avr-objdump -d. If you need to be very fast, you can use the naked attribute and do all the save/restore yourself. Your handler should NOT change the status register so if you use naked, save and restore SREG. /* * work.c = test
