Stack Allocation

Stack pool in MAUI:

1. UND_Stack_Pool     Dedicated for CPU Undefined state      128B        External RAM

2. ABT_Stack_Pool      Pre-fetch Abort   Data Abort                 128B        External RAM

3. IRQ_Stack_Pool      IRQ                                                       128B        Internal RAM or TCM

4. FIQ_Stack_Pool      FIQ                                                        128B        Internal RAM or TCM

5. SYS_Stack_Pool      For CPU Supervisor state                      2048B      Internal RAM or TCM

6. EX_Stack_Pool        A special stack for processing system exceptions   2048B      Extern RAM

7. Abnormal_info_Pool   A tiny pool for tracking the information of system abnormal reset     16B  Internal RAM or TCM

8. TMD_Stack_Pool     RTOS related,  aims for timer processing          512B       Internal RAM or TCM

 

For ARM7TDMI or ARM7EJ-S based MTK BB-chip, MAUI always runs on supervisor mode, system always consumes the System Stack, it is used at system initialization phase and servicing Low Level Interrupt Service Routine(LISR).

 

These stack are all type of ZI(BSS), system will automatically fill-up with zero while initialization.
