Detailed Description

QF Active Object Framework.

Function Documentation

◆ init()

void QP::QF::init ( void  )

QF initialization

Initializes QF and must be called exactly once before any other QF function. Typically, QF_init() is called from main() even before initializing the Board Support Package (BSP).

Note
QF::init() clears the internal QF variables, so that the framework can start correctly even if the startup code fails to clear the uninitialized data (as is required by the C Standard).

◆ stop()

void QP::QF::stop ( )

Invoked by the application layer to stop the QF framework and return control to the OS/Kernel (used in some QF ports).

This function stops the QF application. After calling this function, QF attempts to gracefully stop the application. This graceful shutdown might take some time to complete. The typical use of this function is for terminating the QF application to return back to the operating system or for handling fatal errors that require shutting down (and possibly re-setting) the system.

Attention
After calling QF_stop() the application must terminate and cannot continue. In particular, QF_stop() is not intended to be followed by a call to QF_init() to "resurrect" the application.

Definition at line 338 of file qk.cpp.

◆ run()

int_t QP::QF::run ( )

Transfers control to QF to run the application.

QF::run() is typically called from your startup code after you initialize the QF and start at least one active object with QActive::start().

Returns
Typically in embedded systems QF::run() does not return, but in case QF runs on top of a General-Purpose OS (GPOS), QF::run() returns the error status with value 0 representing success.

Definition at line 344 of file qk.cpp.

◆ onStartup()

QP::QF::onStartup ( )

Startup QF callback.

The purpose of the QF_onStartup() callback is to configure and enable hardware interrupts. The callback is invoked from QF_run(), right before starting the underlying real-time kernel. By that time, the application is considered ready to receive and service interrupts.

This function is application-specific and is not implemented in QF, but rather in the Board Support Package (BSP) for the given application.

◆ onCleanup()

void QP::QF::onCleanup ( )

◆ psInit()

void QP::QF::psInit ( QSubscrList *const  subscrSto,
enum_t const  maxSignal 
)

void const *const  sender,
std::uint_fast8_t const  qs_id 
)

◆ tick()

void QP::QF::tick ( std::uint_fast8_t const  tickRate,
void const *const  sender

inlinenoexcept
Deprecated:

◆ getQueueMin()

QP::QF::getQueueMin ( std::uint_fast8_t const  prio)
inlinenoexcept
Deprecated:

This function returns the minimum of free entries of the given event queue.

Queries the minimum of free ever present in the given event queue of an active object with priority prio, since the active object was started.

Note
This function is available only when the native QF event queue implementation is used. Requesting the queue minimum of an unused priority level raises an assertion in the QF. (A priority level becomes used in QF after the call to the QActive_register_() function.)
Parameters
[in]prioPriority of the active object, whose queue is queried
Returns
The minimum of free ever present in the given event queue of an active object with priority prio, since the active object was started.

◆ poolInit()

void QP::QF::poolInit ( void *const  poolSto,
std::uint_fast32_t const  poolSize,
std::uint_fast16_t const  evtSize 
)
noexcept

Event pool initialization for dynamic allocation of events.

This function initializes one event pool at a time and must be called exactly once for each event pool before the pool can be used.

Parameters
[in]poolStopointer to the storage for the event pool
[in]poolSizesize of the storage for the pool in bytes
[in]evtSizethe block-size of the pool in bytes, which determines the maximum size of events that can be allocated from the pool.
Precondition qf_dyn:200
  • the number of event-pools initialized so far must not exceed the maximum QF_MAX_EPOOL
Precondition qf_dyn:201
  • except the first event-pool 0, the event-size of the previously initialized event pool must not exceed the next event size.

You might initialize many event pools by making many consecutive calls to the QF_poolInit() function. However, for the simplicity of the internal implementation, you must initialize event pools in the ascending order of the event size.

Remarks
Many RTOSes provide fixed block-size heaps, a.k.a. memory pools that can be adapted for QF event-pools. In case the pools from the RTOS are not used, QF provides a native memory pool implementation (::QMPool). The macro QF_EPOOL_TYPE_ determines the type of event pool used by a particular QF port.
Note
The actual number of events available in the pool might be actually less than (poolSize / evtSize) due to the internal alignment of the blocks that the pool might perform. You can always check the capacity of the pool by calling QF_getPoolMin().
The dynamic allocation of events is optional, meaning that you might choose not to use mutable events. In that case calling QF_poolInit() and using up memory for the memory blocks is unnecessary.

◆ poolGetMaxBlockSize()

std::uint_fast16_t QP::QF::poolGetMaxBlockSize ( )
noexcept

Obtain the block size of any registered event pools.

Obtain the block size of any registered event pools

Definition at line 116 of file qf_dyn.cpp.

◆ getPoolMin()

std::uint_fast16_t QP::QF::getPoolMin ( std::uint_fast8_t const  poolId)
noexcept

Obtain the minimum of free entries of the given event pool.

This function obtains the minimum number of free blocks in the given event pool since this pool has been initialized by a call to QF_poolInit().

Parameters
[in]poolIdevent pool ID in the range 1..max_pool, where max_pool is the number of event pools initialized with the function QF_poolInit().
Returns
the minimum number of unused blocks in the given event pool.
Precondition qf_dyn:400
  • the poolId must be in range

Definition at line 121 of file qf_dyn.cpp.

◆ newX_()

QEvt * QP::QF::newX_ ( std::uint_fast16_t const  evtSize,
std::uint_fast16_t const  margin,
enum_t const  sig 
)
noexcept

Definition at line 139 of file qf_dyn.cpp.

◆ gc()

void QP::QF::gc ( QEvt const *const  e)
noexcept

Recycle a mutable (mutable) event

This function implements a simple garbage collector for the mutable events. Only mutable events are candidates for recycling. (A mutable event is one that is allocated from an event-pool, which is determined as non-zero QEvt_getPoolId_(e)) Next, the function decrements the reference counter of the event (e->refCtr_), and recycles the event only if the counter drops to zero (meaning that no more references are outstanding for this event). The mutable event is recycled by returning it to the pool from which it was originally allocated.

Parameters
[in]epointer to the event to recycle
Note
QF invokes the garbage collector at all appropriate contexts, when an event can become garbage (automatic garbage collection), so the application code should have no need to call QF_gc() directly. The QF_gc() function is exposed only for special cases when your application sends mutable events to the "raw" thread-safe queues (see ::QEQueue). Such queues are processed outside of QF and the automatic garbage collection is NOT performed for these events. In this case you need to call QF_gc() explicitly.
