cramium-soc i think should be deprecated everywhere because
it is redundant with the board targets: anywhere you see a board
target that includes the crossbar soc it should also transitively
pull in the cramium-soc dependency equivalents.
we'll chase this out more later, but for now we're just trying
to get the PDDB to compile
this is a fairly major re-org of where key constants go that
define platform features. things that were in xous-rs that were
platform specific (namely precursor) were moved into a boards file,
and things that are generic to the system (like PAGE_SIZE) are moved
to a public location in xous-rs::arch.
- make the "base" field no longer public. It is accessible, but only
through an `unsafe` method, because, it is unsafe.
- add accessors to offest/mask fields. Because, it's not at all
unsafe to access these, and it can be useful for bit-ops that are
not part of the generic set of UTRA.
- add Arc to AtomicCSR, and require `std` for AtomicCSR types.
This should not break anything, I checked inside @foundation-devices
keyOS and they don't seem to be using AtomicCSR anywhere.
The Arc makes it a bit safer to clone the AtomicCSR base pointer
and share it between threads, but it will have an impact on performance.
The USB stack (which requires AtomicCSR) was regression testing and the
impact seems minimal.
Recall that the main purpose of AtomicCSR is to provide a CSR accessor
that does not require a mutable reference to the base object. This
can make certain Rust idioms a bit cleaner. We wrap the base accessor
in Arc+Atomic to try and improve the safety of throwing the borrow
checker under the bus, but it's still not perfect because hardware
mutable state can have side-effects within hardware itself that cannot
be modeled or checked by Rust's borrow checker.
