This new header generator works differently from the previous one:
- it uses the new format
- the generated macro follow a different style (see below)
- the generated macro are highly documented!
- it supports SCT-style platform or RMW-style ones
Compared to the old style, the new one generate a big set of macros per
register/field/enum (loosely related to iohw.h from Embedded C spec). The user
then calls generic (names are customizable) macros to perform operations:
reg_read(REG_A)
reg_read(REG_B(3))
reg_read_field(REG_A, FIELD_X)
reg_read_field(REG_B(3), COOL_FIELD)
reg_write(REG_A, 0x42)
reg_write_field(REG_A, FIELD_X(1), FIELD_Y(3), IRQ_V(FIQ))
reg_write_fielc(REG_B(3), COOL_FIELD_V(I_AM_COOL), BLA(42))
the following use RMW or SET/CLR variants, depending on target:
reg_set_field(REG_A, FLAG_U, FLAG_V)
reg_clr_field(REG_A, FIELD_X, FIELD_Y, IRQ)
reg_clr_field(REG_B(3), COOL_FIELD, BLA)
the following does clear followed by set, on SET/CLR targets:
reg_cs(REG_A, 0xff, 0x42)
reg_cs(REG_B(3), 0xaa, 0x55)
reg_cs_field(REG_A, FIELD_X(1), FIELD_Y(3), IRQ_V(FIQ))
reg_cs_field(REG_B(3), COOL_FIELD_V(I_AM_COOL))
The generator code is pretty long but has lots of documentation and lots of
macro names can be customized.
