Description: ARM interrupt handling performance could be improved in some
ways. One easy way is to use a pointer to the context save
area in current_regs instead of using up_copystate so much.
- see handling of 'current_regs" in arch/arm/src/armv7-m/* for
- examples of how this might be done.
+
+ This approach is already implemented for the ARM Cortex-M0,
+ Cortex-M3, Cortex-M4, and Cortex-A5 families. But still needs
+ to be back-ported to the ARM7 and ARM9 (which are nearly
+ identical to the Cortex-A5 in this regard).
