 * RecorderData
 *
 * The main data structure. This is the data read by Tracealyzer, typically
 * through a debugger RAM dump. The recorder access this through the pointer
 * RecorderDataPtr, to allow for dynamic memory allocation as well.
 *
 * On the NXP LPC17xx you may use the secondary RAM bank (AHB RAM) for this
 * purpose. For instance, the LPC1766 has 32 KB AHB RAM which allows for
 * allocating a buffer size of at least 7500 events without affecting the main
 * RAM. To place RecorderData in this RAM bank, use the below declaration.
 *
 *     #pragma location="AHB_RAM_MEMORY"
 *     RecorderDataType RecorderData = ...
 *
 * This of course works for other hardware architectures with additional RAM
 * banks as well, just replace "AHB_RAM_MEMORY" with the name of the right
 * address section from the linker file.
 *
 * However, to keep trcBase.c portable and still have a preconfigured IAR demo
 * using AHB RAM, we don't add the pragma directly in trcBase.c but in a header
 * included where the pragma should go. This is used depending on the setting
 * USE_LINKER_PRAGMA, defined in trcConfig.h.
 *
 * If using GCC, this is instead done by adding a "section" attribute:
 *
 *     RecorderDataType RecorderData __attribute__ ((section ("name"))) = ...
 *
 * Remember to replace "name" with the correct section name.

/*******************************************************************************
 * Object handle system
 * This provides a mechanism to assign each kernel object (tasks, queues, etc)
 * with a 1-byte handle, that is used to identify the object in the trace.
 * This way, only one byte instead of four is necessary to identify the object.
 * This allows for maximum 255 objects, of each object class, active at any
 * moment.
 * Note that zero is reserved as an error code and is not a valid handle.
 *
 * In order to allow for fast dynamic allocation and release of object handles,
 * the handles of each object class (e.g., TASK) are stored in a stack. When a
 * handle is needed, e.g., on task creation, the next free handle is popped from
 * the stack. When an object (e.g., task) is deleted, its handle is pushed back
 * on the stack and can thereby be reused for other objects.
 *
 * Since this allows for reuse of object handles, a specific handle (e.g, "8")
 * may refer to TASK_X at one point, and later mean "TASK_Y". To resolve this,
 * the recorder uses "Close events", which are stored in the main event buffer
 * when objects are deleted and their handles are released. The close event
 * contains the mapping between object handle and object name which was valid up
 * to this point in time. The object name is stored as a symbol table entry.
