David Watson 368ab1d4fb Remove use of basepri register on thumbv8m.base
The basepri register appears to be aviable on thumbv8m.main but not
thumbv8m.base. At the very least, attempting to compile against a
Cortex-M23 based Microchip ATSAML10E16A generates an error:

```
error[E0432]: unresolved import `cortex_m::register::basepri`
  --> /Users/dwatson/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/cortex-m-rtic-1.1.3/src/export.rs:25:5
   |
25 | use cortex_m::register::basepri;
   |     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ no `basepri` in `register`
```

This is an attempt to account for the fact that thumbv8m.base (M23)
MCUs don't have the BASEPRI register but have more than 32
interrupts. This moves away from the architecture specific config
flags and switches to a more functional flag.

Make the mask size depend on the max interrupt id

Rather than assuming a fixed interrupt count of 32 this code uses an
array of u32 bitmasks to calculate the priority mask. The size of this
array is calculated at compile time based on the size of the largest
interrupt id being used in the target code. For thumbv6m this should
be equivalent to the previous version that used a single u32 mask. For
thumbv8m.base it will be larger depending on the interrupts used.

Don't write 0s to the ISER and ICER registers

Writing 0s to these registers is a no-op. Since these masks should be
calculated at compile time, this conditional should result in writes
being optimized out of the code.

Prevent panic on non-arm targets

Panicking on unknown targets was breaking things like the doc build on
linux. This change should only panic when building on unknown arm
targets.

Real-Time Interrupt-driven Concurrency

A concurrency framework for building real-time systems.

Formerly known as Real-Time For the Masses.

crates.io docs.rs book matrix Meeting notes

Features

  • Tasks as the unit of concurrency 1. Tasks can be event triggered (fired in response to asynchronous stimuli) or spawned by the application on demand.

  • Message passing between tasks. Specifically, messages can be passed to software tasks at spawn time.

  • A timer queue 2. Software tasks can be scheduled to run at some time in the future. This feature can be used to implement periodic tasks.

  • Support for prioritization of tasks and, thus, preemptive multitasking.

  • Efficient and data race free memory sharing through fine grained priority based critical sections 1.

  • Deadlock free execution guaranteed at compile time. This is a stronger guarantee than what's provided by the standard Mutex abstraction.

  • Minimal scheduling overhead. The task scheduler has minimal software footprint; the hardware does the bulk of the scheduling.

  • Highly efficient memory usage: All the tasks share a single call stack and there's no hard dependency on a dynamic memory allocator.

  • All Cortex-M devices are fully supported.

  • This task model is amenable to known WCET (Worst Case Execution Time) analysis and scheduling analysis techniques.

Crate cortex-m 0.6 vs 0.7 in RTIC 0.5.x

The crate cortex-m 0.7 started using trait InterruptNumber for interrupts instead of Nr from bare-metal. In order to preserve backwards compatibility, RTIC 0.5.x will keep using cortex-m 0.6 by default. cortex-m 0.7 can be enabled using the feature cortex-m-7 and disabling default features:

cortex-m-rtic = { version = "0.5.8", default-features = false, features = ["cortex-m-7"] }

RTIC 1.0.0 already uses cortex-m 0.7 by default.

Running tests locally

To check all Run-pass tests locally on your thumbv6m-none-eabi or thumbv7m-none-eabi target device, run

$ cargo xtask --target <your target>
#                       ˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆ
#                   e.g. thumbv7m-none-eabi
