You don't have to mark those functions as reentrant. The reentrant attribute causes a function to disable interrupts on entry and enable interrupts on exit. I suppose you refer to recursive programming. This is no problem in the MSP430 architecture and doesn't require special function attributes. >Also what is the syntax for defining a pointer to a reentrant function. >I have tried many variations of the following but with no success. > >typedef int (*func_ptr_t)(int x) __attribute__((reentrant)); Being reentrant has to do with the way the function is compiled, so you should only mark the function body (the actual implementation) as reentrant.
