Question to COSMIC compiler experts

Hello, I briefly.

How to implement critical section compatible with __monitor or __critical directives in other compilers? And how to pass the offset of stack of the local variables into inline assembler directives? And further. Who can explain it?

Thanks in advance. #cosmic-critical-monitor #cosmic-critical

Hello,

these directives you mention (__monitor and __critical) are probably specific to some toolchain you have been using in the past, but if you tell us what they do we can probably explain the best way to do the same in Cosmic. Same for the local variables address: please explain exactly what you want to do so that we can suggest the best possible solution. Regards, Luca

Hello, Luca. Thanks for reply.

Prefix directives __monitor __task __noreturn  __interrupt  uses  IAR now. Postfix directives __critical, __interrupt, __naked used SDCC. They have some equivalencies. The __interrupt it known and equivalent @interrupt of COSMIC. __monitor of IAR and __critical of SDCC have same sense and is describe function as critical section (with interrupts disabled). But into SDCC this directive implemented incorrectly. This directives allow insert preamble into code of  function without writing special clauses. For example, can do as: {         unsigned char saved_cc = (unsigned char)_asm(''push cc\n rim\n pop a'');         /* function code */        _asm(''push a\n pop cc\n'', saved_cc); } That is equivalent the directive __monitor what applied to the function header. I hope what I was write understandable. All the same I am Russian. :) Viacheslav.
