Scheduling DSP/BIOS Threads
SWIs
SWIs

and
TSKs
TSKs
Similar to hardware interrupt,
but triggered by SWI_post()
All SWI's share system
software stack
SWI
SWI_post
start
end
“run to
completion”
SEM_post() readies the TSK
which pends on an event
The event triggers the TSK
to run once and pend
Each TSK has its own stack,
which allows them to pause
(or be terminated)
TSK
start
end
Pause

state)
SEM_pend

Use SWI to perform HWI '
follow-up
' activity
SWI's are '
posted
' by software
Multiple SWIs at each of 15 priority levels
Use TSK to run different programs concurrently
under separate contexts
TSK's enabled by posting '
semaphore
‘ (a signal)
Multiple IDL functions
Runs as an infinite loop, like traditional while loop
All BIOS data transfers to host occur here
Used to implement 'urgent' part of real-time event
Triggered by hardware interrupt
HWI priorities set by hardware
