@n @section core_intro Introduction

  The purpose of the CORE interrupt API is to provide simple and safe means
  to disable and enable interrupts to protect sections of code.

  This is often referred to as "critical sections" and this module provide
  support for three types of critical sections, each with different interrupt
  blocking capabilities.

  @li <b>CRITICAL</b> section: Inside a critical sections all interrupts are
      disabled (except for fault handlers). The PRIMASK register is always used for
      interrupt disable/enable.
  @li <b>ATOMIC</b> section: This type of section is configurable and the default 
      method is to use PRIMASK. With BASEPRI configuration, interrupts with priority 
      equal to or lower than a given configurable level are disabled. The interrupt 
      disable priority level is defined at compile time. The BASEPRI register is not 
      available for all architectures.
  @li <b>NVIC mask</b> section: Disable NVIC (external interrupts) on an
      individual manner.

  em_core also has an API for manipulating RAM based interrupt vector tables.


@n @section core_conf Compile time configuration

  The following @htmlonly #defines @endhtmlonly are used to configure em_core:
  @verbatim
  // The interrupt priority level used inside ATOMIC sections.
  #define CORE_ATOMIC_BASE_PRIORITY_LEVEL    3

  // Method used for interrupt disable/enable within ATOMIC sections.
  #define CORE_ATOMIC_METHOD                 CORE_ATOMIC_METHOD_PRIMASK
  @endverbatim

  If the default values does not support your needs, they can be overridden
  by supplying -D compiler flags on the compiler command line or by collecting
  all macro redefinitions in a file named @em emlib_config.h and then supplying
  -DEMLIB_USER_CONFIG on compiler command line.

  @note The default emlib configuration for ATOMIC section interrupt disable
        method is using PRIMASK, i.e. ATOMIC sections are implemented as
        CRITICAL sections.

  @note Due to architectural limitations Cortex-M0+ devices does not support
        ATOMIC type critical sections using the BASEPRI register. On M0+
        devices ATOMIC section helper macros are available but they are
        implemented as CRITICAL sections using PRIMASK register.


@n @section core_macro_api The macro API

  The primary em_core API is the macro API. The macro API will map to correct
  CORE functions according to the selected @ref CORE_ATOMIC_METHOD and similar
  configurations (the full CORE API is of course also available).
  The most useful macros are:

  @ref CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE @n @ref CORE_ENTER_ATOMIC() @n
  @ref CORE_EXIT_ATOMIC()@n
  Used together to implement an ATOMIC section.
  @verbatim
  {
    CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE;           // Storage for saving IRQ state prior
                                      // atomic section entry.

    CORE_ENTER_ATOMIC();              // Enter atomic section

    ...
    ... your code goes here ...
    ...

    CORE_EXIT_ATOMIC();               // Exit atomic section, IRQ state is restored
  }
  @endverbatim

  @n @ref CORE_ATOMIC_SECTION(yourcode)@n
  A concatenation of all three macros above.
  @verbatim
  {
    CORE_ATOMIC_SECTION(
      ...
      ... your code goes here ...
      ...
    )
  }
  @endverbatim

  @n @ref CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE @n @ref CORE_ENTER_CRITICAL() @n
  @ref CORE_EXIT_CRITICAL() @n @ref CORE_CRITICAL_SECTION(yourcode)@n
  These macros implement CRITICAL sections in a similar fashion as described
  above for ATOMIC sections.

  @n @ref CORE_DECLARE_NVIC_STATE @n @ref CORE_ENTER_NVIC() @n
  @ref CORE_EXIT_NVIC() @n @ref CORE_NVIC_SECTION(yourcode)@n
  These macros implement NVIC mask sections in a similar fashion as described
  above for ATOMIC sections. See @ref core_examples for an example.

  Refer to @em Macros or <em>Macro Definition Documentation</em> below for a
  full list of macros.


@n @section core_reimplementation API reimplementation

  Most of the functions in the API are implemented as weak functions. This means
  that it is easy to reimplement them when special needs arise. Shown below is a
  reimplementation of CRITICAL sections suitable if FreeRTOS is used:
  @verbatim
  CORE_irqState_t CORE_EnterCritical(void)
  {
    vPortEnterCritical();
    return 0;
  }

  void CORE_ExitCritical(CORE_irqState_t irqState)
  {
    (void)irqState;
    vPortExitCritical();
  }
  @endverbatim
  Also note that CORE_Enter/ExitCritical() are not implemented as inline
  functions. As a result, reimplementations will be possible even when original
  implementations reside inside a linked library.

  Some RTOS'es must be notified on interrupt handler entry and exit. Macros
  @ref CORE_INTERRUPT_ENTRY() and @ref CORE_INTERRUPT_EXIT() are suitable
  placeholders for inserting such code. Insert these macros in all your
  interrupt handlers and then override the default macro implementations.
  Here is an example suitable if uC/OS is used:
  @verbatim
  // In emlib_config.h:

  #define CORE_INTERRUPT_ENTRY()   OSIntEnter()
  #define CORE_INTERRUPT_EXIT()    OSIntExit()
  @endverbatim


@n @section core_vector_tables Interrupt vector tables

  When using RAM based interrupt vector tables it is the users responsibility
  to allocate the table space correctly. The tables must be aligned as specified
  in the cpu reference manual.

  @ref CORE_InitNvicVectorTable()@n
  Initialize a RAM based vector table by copying table entries from a source
  vector table to a target table. VTOR is set to the address of the target
  vector table.

  @n @ref CORE_GetNvicRamTableHandler() @n @ref CORE_SetNvicRamTableHandler()@n
  Use these functions to get or set the interrupt handler for a specific IRQn.
  They both use the interrupt vector table defined by current
  VTOR register value.

@n @section core_examples Examples

  Implement a NVIC critical section:
  @verbatim
  {
    CORE_DECLARE_NVIC_ZEROMASK(mask); // A zero initialized NVIC disable mask

    // Set mask bits for IRQ's we wish to block in the NVIC critical section
    // In many cases you can create the disable mask once upon application
    // startup and use the mask globally throughout application lifetime.
    CORE_NvicMaskSetIRQ(LEUART0_IRQn, &mask);
    CORE_NvicMaskSetIRQ(VCMP_IRQn,    &mask);

    // Enter NVIC critical section with the disable mask
    CORE_NVIC_SECTION(&mask,
      ...
      ... your code goes here ...
      ...
    )
  }
  @endverbatim

@n @section core_porting Porting from em_int
  
  Existing code using INT_Enable() and INT_Disable() must be ported to the
  em_core API. While em_int used a global counter to store the interrupt state,
  em_core uses a local variable. Any usage of INT_Disable() therefore needs to
  be replaced with a declaration of the interrupt state variable before entering
  the critical section.

  Since the state variable is in the local scope, the critical section exit
  needs to occur within the scope of the variable. If multiple nested critical
  sections are used, each needs to have its own state variable in its own scope.

  In many cases, completely disabling all interrupts using CRITICAL sections
  might be more heavy-handed than needed. When porting, consider whether other
  types of sections, like ATOMIC or NVIC mask, can be used to only disable
  a subset of the interrupts.

  Replacing em_int calls with em_core function calls:
  @verbatim
  void func(void)
  {
    // INT_Disable();
    CORE_DECLARE_IRQ_STATE;
    CORE_ENTER_ATOMIC();
      .
      .
      .
