FIXBFLD Compiler Directive

Abbreviation	FB
Arguments	None.
Default	None.
µVision	Options — C166 — Misc Controls.
Description	The FIXBFLD directive ensures that the compiler encloses BFLDL and BFLDH instructions within ATOMIC sequences. This is required to avoid problems documented by Infineon in CPU.21 problem description. To use this directive in µVision, you must enter it under Options — C166 — Misc. The FIXBFLD directive causes the compiler to insert ATOMIC #1 instructions before each BFLDL and BFLDH instruction. If the BFLD instruction is used to access ESFR registers, the EXTR sequence is not combined with other EXTR sequences. An exception to this occurs when accessing the SYSCON1, SYSCON2, and SYSCON3 SFR's since this is required by the hardware for UNLOCK sequences. The compiler does not modify the use of the _bfld_ intrinsic function within _atomic_/_endatomic_ blocks. You must check such code blocks carefully and insert NOP's if required (using the _nop_ intrinsic function) before the _bfld_() intrinsic call. Note If you use RTX166 Tiny you must enable the FIXBFLD option in RTX166T.A66 and rebuild the RTX166 Tiny library. This corrects the CPU.21 problems in the kernel.
