Some thoughts and questions on the implication of this.
As I understand it, bsp_reset() here was intended as a way for the user to
provide an application/mission specific way to take late action on a fatal
event. And also that bsp_reset() was called in a "single-processor
state" where
the other processors had already been stopped (powered down).
Some potential use cases for action in a bsp_reset(), I can think of:
- Log an entry in an off-chip, on-board non-volatile memory with a record
consisting of system date, fatal_source and fatal_code.
- Signal the event, using GPIO, to an external failure/redundancy
controller.
- Tell an on-board reset circuit to initiate a board reset/shutdown.
- Issuing a "warm" system restart by jumping to a known location in a
ROM boot
loader.
The _CPU_Fatal_halt looks like a path of no return (error mode) and no more
user hooks. But would it perhaps be possibility for the application to
provide
an extension with CONFIGURE_INITIAL_EXTENSIONS to have application specific
actions like the ones above?
Yes, exactly. The API to customize the fatal error handling for
applications is the CONFIGURE_INITIAL_EXTENSIONS application
configuration option. There is absolutely no need for a BSP-specific
solution.
