Hi there,
This patch moves a conflicting logic to define
CYGNUM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_NUM_CHANNELS, that was being defined in
redboot.h and in hal_if.c; to the platform hal, and implemented in a
more general way, that allows more modules to increase the number of
channels.
Can you explain the purpose of this change more fully? e.g. how does
it differ than just expanding on CYGNUM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_COMM_CHANNELS
within the platform HAL (the way it's been done on a number of HALs)?
