fe421022e2 sched/wqueue/kwork_notifier.c and several Kconfig files: Notifier should work with either lpwork or hpwork and other minor typo fix. 2019-01-27 11:02:56 -06:00

b3f0aab00a Squashed commit of the following:
sched/wqueue/kwork_notifier.c:  Redesign some data structures.  struct works_s must appear at the beginning of the notifier entry structure.  That is because it contains the work queue indices.  This solves a harfault issue.

    net/tcp/tcp_netpoll.c:  tcp_iob_work() needs to free the allocated argument when it is finished.

    net/tcp/tcp_send_buffered.c:  Extend psock_tcp_cansend() so that it also requires that at least on IOB is also avaialble.

    mm/iob:  iob_navail() was returning the number of free IOB chain queue entries, not the number of free IOBs.  Completely misnamed.

    net/tcp/tcp_netpoll.c:  Add logic to receive notifications when IOBs are freed (Needs CONFIG_NET_TCP_WRITE_BUFFERS and CONFIG_IOB_NOTIFIER).  At present, does nothing because the logic in in psock_tcp_cansend() does not check for the availability of IOBs.  That will change.

11a635dcb3 mm/iob: IOB free notifier should accept the work queue ID as a paramter. The notification may need to run on either the high- or low- priority work queue. sched/work: Change the default priority of the low-priority work queue to 100. 2018-09-11 08:49:39 -06:00

af0ee3c8f7 sched/wqueue: Add an option to work queue notifier so that the notification can occur on different work queues. 2018-09-11 07:22:23 -06:00

4cb61bd8c2 sched/wqueue: Notifier design cleanup. The original concept used pre-allocated notification data structures. However, the notification dat must persist for an indeterminate amount of time. So the design was modified to use dynamically allocted data structures. This commit simplifies the design by removed some residual 'machinery' that is no longer needed. 2018-09-10 06:29:51 -06:00

9d3148406c Signals were not a good choice of IPC to implement the poll function for several reasons: In order to handle the asynchrnous poll-related event, a substantial amount of state information is needed. Signals are only capable of passing minimal amounts of data. There are also complexities with performing kernel space signal handlers in kernel space code that is better to avoid. So, instead of signals, the equivalent logic was converted to run via a callback that executes on the high-priority work queue.
Squashed commit of the following:

    Fix up some final compile isses.

    net/netdev:  Convert the network down notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.

    net/udp:  Convert the UDP readahead notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.

    net/tcp:  Convert the TCP readahead notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.

    mm/iob:  Convert the IOB notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.

    sched/wqueue:  Signals are not good IPCs to support the target poll functionality for several reasons including the amount of data that can be passed with a signal and in the fact that in protected and kernel modes, user threads executing signal handlers in protected, kernel memory is problematic.  Instead, convert the same logic to perform the notifications via function callback on the high priority work queue.
