Title: SCALABILITY
|
||||
Description: Task control information is retained in simple lists. This
|
||||
is completely appropriate for small embedded systems where
|
||||
the number of tasks, N, is relatively small. Most list
|
||||
operations are O(N). This could become as issue if N gets
|
||||
very large.
|
||||
|
||||
In that case, these simple lists should be replaced with
|
||||
something more performant such as a balanced tree in the
|
||||
case of ordered lists. Fortunately, most internal lists are
|
||||
hidden behind simple accessor functions and so the internal
|
||||
data structures can be changed if need with very little impact.
|
||||
|
||||
The only area are the list structure is not well contained is
|
||||
in the sequence of code that finds the current running task:
|
||||
|
||||
FAR struct tcb_s *rtcb = (FAT struc tcb_s *)g_readytorun.head;
|
||||
|
||||
That needs to be hidden behind a macro (it would also be a problem
|
||||
for any SMP implementation).
|
||||

||||
Status: Open
|
||||
Priority: Low. Things are just the way that we want them for the way
|
||||
that NuttX is used today.
