1. Internal scheduler functions should begin with nxsched_, not sched_
2. Follow the consistent naming patter of https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX/Naming+of+OS+Internal+Functions
# clock_systimer -> clock_systime_tick
# clock_systimespec -> clock_systime_timespec
sched_oneshot_extclk -> nxsched_oneshot_extclk
sched_period_extclk -> nxsched_period_extclk
# nxsem_setprotocol -> nxsem_set_protocol
# nxsem_getprotocol -> nxsem_get_protocol
# nxsem_getvalue -> nxsem_get_value
nxsem_initholders -> nxsem_initialize_holders
nxsem_addholder -> nxsem_add_holder
nxsem_addholder_tcb -> nxsem_add_holder_tcb
nxsem_boostpriority -> nxsem_boost_priority
nxsem_releaseholder -> nxsem_release_holder
nxsem_restorebaseprio -> nxsem_restore_baseprio
Some planned name changed were skipped for now because they effect too many files (and would require many hours of coding style fixups).
1. Add missing conditional logic in include/sys/syscall_lookup.h
2. CONFIG_NPTHREAD_KEYS removed from code but was still in sched/Kconfig
3. Refresh all configurations affected by PR 1007
4. syscall/syscall_funclookup.c needs to include nuttx/tls.h
1. Move pthread-specific data files from sched/pthread/ to libs/libc/pthread.
2. Remove pthread-specific data functions from syscalls.
3. Implement tls_alloc() and tls_free() with system calls.
4. Reimplement pthread_key_create() and pthread_key_free() using tls_alloc() and tls_free().
5. Reimplement pthread_set_specific() and pthread_get_specicif() using tls_set_value() and tls_get_value()
- Remove per-thread errno from the TCB structure (pterrno)
- Remove get_errno() and set_errno() as functions. The macros are still available as stubs and will be needed in the future if we need to access the errno from a different address environment (KERNEL mode).
- Add errno value to the tls_info_s structure definitions
- Move sched/errno to libs/libc/errno. Replace old TCB access to the errno with TLS access to the errno.
Move the logic to get TLS information from an inline function to a normal function. For the unaligned case, it is probably too large to be inlined.
Also fixes some minor things from review of previous commits.
The sched_get_stackinfo() interface was just added. However, it occurs to me that it is a dangerous feature and could lead to security problems. In FLAT and PROTECTED modes, if you get access to any other threads stack, you could do harm.
This commit adds some level of security. Basically, it implements these rules:
1. Any thread may query its own stack,
2. A kernel thread may query the stack of any other thread
3. Application threads, however, may query only the stacks of threads within the same task group, i.e., the main thread and any of the child pthreads created with the main thread as a parent or grandparent or great-grandpart ...
The new OS interface, sched_get_stackinfo() combines two pthread-specific interfaces into a single generic interface. The existing pthread_get_stackaddr_np() and pthread_get_stacksize_np() are moved from sched/pthread to libs/libc/pthread.
There are two motivations for this change: First, it reduces the number of system calls. Secondly, it adds a common hook that is going to used for a future implementation of TLS.
Fix it after the following change:
commit bb4458b63f
Author: Ouss4 <abdelatif.guettouche@gmail.com>
Date: Thu Apr 30 19:05:12 2020 +0100
include/sys/stat.h: Per the POSIX standard, the atime, ctime and mtime field
s
have changed their type from time_t to struct timespec.
Sockets are created in two steps:
1. The socket is allocated, then
2. The socket is initialized.
In SMP mode, there is a possibility that a pthread executing one CPU may create a new task while a pthread on another CPU has allocated the socket but not yet initialized it. This commit updates the socket clone test to assure that the socket is both allocated and initailized.
Without the change, it is possible that uninitialized sockets could be cloned, leading to errors later in the newly started task.
