XD Ada M68060/ARTX and
Options for OpenVMS Systems Version 2.1
XD Ada MC68060/ARTX Version 2.1 for OpenVMS Systems is a product
extension to the XD Ada MC68060 Version 2.1 for OpenVMS Systems
cross-development software product, integrating it with the Ready Systems (now
Microtec Research) ARTX™ real-time executive.
XD Ada™ was jointly developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (now
Hewlett-Packard) and EDS (now HP Enterprise Services), and provides a validated
implementation of the full ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A-1983
It is designed for use in embedded systems, supporting the generation of
optimized and relocatable code for targets using the Motorola MVME177
VMEmodule™ Monoboard Microcomputer.
The XD Ada run-time and tasking systems are fully integrated with ARTX,
relying on its services for the basic support of
The ARTX extension also offers scope to extend XD Ada functionality via
the product options listed below:
·
Input/Output Option
·
Networking Option
XD Ada Features with ARTX
XD Ada MC68060/ARTX Version 2.1 for OpenVMS Systems supports all of the
features of XD Ada MC68060 Version 2.1 for OpenVMS Systems. Supplied with XD
Ada MC68060/ARTX Version 2.1 for OpenVMS Systems are the following:
·
ARTX ‘‘silicon software’’ components providing
tasking, intertask synchronization and communication (semaphores and message
passing), memory, realtime clock, I/O and interrupt services
·
Predefined library including interface packages to make
ARTX facilities directly callable from
·
Reconfigurable, modular run-time system with
optimized rendezvous performance
·
Three methods of host-target communication as
follows:
— Ethernet™
interface
— RS-232-C
serial interface
— OpenVMS
Mailbox interface for nonstandard host-target links
Input/Output Option
The Input/Output option provides full integration with IFX™, the ARTX
I/O and file manager executive. This offers an MS-DOS-compatible target filing
system (based on RAM and SCSI disks) and serial devices. Its facilities are
available both directly to
Networking Option
The Networking option provides integration with TNX™, the ARTX TCP/IP
networking executive. This offers applications the industry standard TCP/IP
protocol via a Unix socket-like interface.
Host Software Components
The XD Ada MC68060 Version 2.1 for OpenVMS Systems host software
consists of a run-time system object code library which provides the support
required at run time; only the modules used by a program are included at build
time.
Target Software Components
The target environment consists of the following:
·
Ready Systems ARTX real-time executive — Provides basic
target management services and tasking primitives
·
Run-time system — Provides Ada language support based
on the ARTX services
·
Target debug kernel — Provides support for loading and
online debugging from the host
Sufficient XD Ada target software is supplied in source form so that it
can be reconfigured for other target configurations based on the MC68060
processor. It may be configured to support only those features needed.
