34 -- This package encapsulates and centralizes information about all
35 -- uses of interrupts (or signals), including the target-dependent
36 -- mapping of interrupts (or signals) to exceptions.
38 -- Unlike the original design, System.Interrupt_Management can only
39 -- be used for tasking systems.
41 -- PLEASE DO NOT remove the Elaborate_Body pragma from this package.
42 -- Elaboration of this package should happen early, as most other
43 -- initializations depend on it. Forcing immediate elaboration of
44 -- the body also helps to enforce the design assumption that this
45 -- is a second-level package, just one level above System.OS_Interface
46 -- with no cross-dependencies.
48 -- PLEASE DO NOT put any subprogram declarations with arguments of
49 -- type Interrupt_ID into the visible part of this package. The type
50 -- Interrupt_ID is used to derive the type in Ada.Interrupts, and
51 -- adding more operations to that type would be illegal according
52 -- to the Ada Reference Manual. This is the reason why the signals
53 -- sets are implemeneted using visible arrays rather than functions.

72 -- The following objects serve as constants, but are initialized
73 -- in the body to aid portability. This permits us to use more
74 -- portable names for interrupts, where distinct names may map to
75 -- the same interrupt ID value.
77 -- For example, suppose SIGRARE is a signal that is not defined on
78 -- all systems, but is always reserved when it is defined. If we
79 -- have the convention that ID zero is not used for any "real"
80 -- signals, and SIGRARE = 0 when SIGRARE is not one of the locally
81 -- supported signals, we can write
82 -- Reserved (SIGRARE) := true;
83 -- and the initialization code will be portable.

86 -- The interrupt that is used to implement task abortion if
87 -- an interrupt is used for that purpose. This is one of the
88 -- reserved interrupts.

91 -- Keep_Unmasked (I) is true iff the interrupt I is one that must
92 -- that must be kept unmasked at all times, except (perhaps) for
93 -- short critical sections. This includes interrupts that are
94 -- mapped to exceptions (see System.Interrupt_Exceptions.Is_Exception),
95 -- but may also include interrupts (e.g. timer) that need to be kept
96 -- unmasked for other reasons. Where interrupts are implemented as
97 -- OS signals, and signal masking is per-task, the interrupt should
98 -- be unmasked in ALL TASKS.
100 Reserve : Interrupt_Set := (others => False);
101 -- Reserve (I) is true iff the interrupt I is one that cannot be
102 -- permitted to be attached to a user handler. The possible reasons
103 -- are many. For example, it may be mapped to an exception used to
104 -- implement task abortion, or used to implement time delays.

107 -- On systems where there is no signal inheritance between tasks (e.g
108 -- VxWorks, GNU/LinuxThreads), this procedure is used to initialize

110 -- only be called by initialize in this package body.
