Why would you want to implement it outside of libgomp?
libgomp has a config/ tree, so just add config/rtems/ in there and implement
it in there.
RTEMS uses the same method for the thread model. It is easier to
maintain since I don't have to build and install a new compiler just to
change the libgomp support. The RTEMS API header file <rtems.h> is not
available during GCC build. I would like to make some parts application
configurable via function pointers (e.g. the heap functions). On RTEMS
we have a single address space for the operating system, support
libraries and the application. In the application we have parts of
different criticality and dynamic behaviour, so the management of
dynamic memory is highly application dependent. Some systems must run
months without a re-boot.
I would like to add a config/rtems and implement most of the stuff
inside the RTEMS source tree or let even the application provide the
implementation.
