3.5 MR308 Kernel Structure

3.5.1 Module Structure

The MR308 kernel consists of the modules shown in Figure 3.19. Each of these modules is composed of func-
tions that exercise individual module features.
The MR308 kernel is supplied in the form of a library, and only necessary features are linked at the time of sys-
tem generation. More specifically, only the functions used are chosen from those which comprise these modules
and linked by means of the Linkage Editor LN308. However, the scheduler module, part of the task manage-
ment module, and part of the time management module are linked at all times because they are essential fea-
ture functions.
The applications program is a program created by the user. It consists of tasks, interrupt handler, alarm handler,
and cyclic handler.29
