<h3 class="section">17.29 Adding support for named address spaces</h3>
|
||
|
|
<a name="index-named-address-spaces"></a>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The draft technical report of the ISO/IEC JTC1 S22 WG14 N1275
|
||
|
|
standards committee, <cite>Programming Languages - C - Extensions to
|
||
|
|
support embedded processors</cite>, specifies a syntax for embedded
|
||
|
|
processors to specify alternate address spaces. You can configure a
|
||
|
|
GCC port to support section 5.1 of the draft report to add support for
|
||
|
|
address spaces other than the default address space. These address
|
||
|
|
spaces are new keywords that are similar to the <code>volatile</code> and
|
||
|
|
<code>const</code> type attributes.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Pointers to named address spaces can have a different size than
|
||
|
|
pointers to the generic address space.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For example, the SPU port uses the <code>__ea</code> address space to refer
|
||
|
|
to memory in the host processor, rather than memory local to the SPU
|
||
|
|
processor. Access to memory in the <code>__ea</code> address space involves
|
||
|
|
issuing DMA operations to move data between the host processor and the
|
||
|
|
local processor memory address space. Pointers in the <code>__ea</code>
|
||
|
|
address space are either 32 bits or 64 bits based on the
|
||
|
|
<samp>-mea32</samp> or <samp>-mea64</samp> switches (native SPU pointers are
|
||
|
|
always 32 bits).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Internally, address spaces are represented as a small integer in the
|
||
|
|
range 0 to 15 with address space 0 being reserved for the generic
|
||
|
|
address space.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To register a named address space qualifier keyword with the C front end,
|
||
|
|
the target may call the <code>c_register_addr_space</code> routine. For example,
|
||
|
|
the SPU port uses the following to declare <code>__ea</code> as the keyword for
|
||
|
|
named address space #1:
|
||
|
|
</p><div class="smallexample">
|
||
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">#define ADDR_SPACE_EA 1
|
||
|
|
c_register_addr_space ("__ea", ADDR_SPACE_EA);
|
||
|
|
</pre></div>
