12 | The Real Time Executive for Multiprocessor Systems |
---|
13 | (RTEMS) is designed to be portable across multiple processor |
---|
14 | architectures. However, the nature of real-time systems makes |
---|
15 | it essential that the application designer understand certain |
---|
16 | processor dependent implementation details. These processor |
---|
17 | dependencies include calling convention, board support package |
---|
18 | issues, interrupt processing, exact RTEMS memory requirements, |
---|
19 | performance data, header files, and the assembly language |
---|
20 | interface to the executive. |

23 | general, refer to the following documents: |

30 | It is highly recommended that the PA-RISC RTEMS |
---|
31 | application developer also obtain and become familiar with the |
---|
32 | Technical Reference Manual for the particular implementation of |
---|
33 | the PA-RISC being used. |
