Summary:
- ARCH_GLOBAL_IRQDISABLE was initially introduced for LC823450 SMP
- At that time, i.MX6 (quad Cortex-A9) did not use this config
- However, this option is now used for all CPUs which support SMP
- So it's good timing for refactoring the code
Impact:
- Should have no impact because the logic is the same for SMP
Testing:
- Tested with board: spresense:smp, spresense:wifi_smp
- Tested with qemu: esp32-core:smp, maix-bit:smp, sabre-6quad:smp
- Build only: lc823450-xgevk:rndis, sam4cmp-db:nsh

If there's no child status available immediately,
return 0 without blocking as specified by the standards.
I checked the following version of the standard.
I believe it has always been this way though.

The implementation for non CONFIG_SCHED_HAVE_PARENT case
seems ok in this regard.

sched_releasetcb() will normally free the stack allocated for a task. However, a task with a custom, user-managed stack may be created using nxtask_init() followed by nxtask_activer. If such a custom stack is used then it must not be free in this many or a crash will most likely result.
This chagne addes a flag call TCB_FLAG_CUSTOM_STACK that may be passed in the the pre-allocted TCB to nxtask_init(). This flag is not used internally anywhere in the OS except that if set, it will prevent sched_releasetcb() from freeing that custom stack.
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).
All complaints fixed except for those that were not possible to fix:
- Used of Mixed case identifier in ESP32 files. These are references to Expressif ROM functions which are outside of the scope of NuttX.
- 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.
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.
These warnings fix a class of warnings that I saw during CI checks for macOS sim builds. For example:
devif/devif_callback.c:111:49: warning: for loop has empty body [-Wempty-body]
prev = curr, curr = curr->nxtdev);
^
devif/devif_callback.c:111:49: note: put the semicolon on a separate line to silence this warning
I did not put the semi-colon on a separate line, but used braces.
Hello,
I am testing priority inversion feauture of Nuttx scheduler. I encounter with problem in tests.
Here is problem:
nxsched_readytorun_setpriority() function not works as expected when DEBUG_ASSERTION not enabled. Because sched_removereadytorun() and sched_addreadytorun() is not called in this case. These functions wrapped with DEBUGASSERT macro and with the effect of DEBUGASSERT macro, sched_removereadytorun() and sched_addreadytorun() not called when DEBUG_ASSERTION not enabled. Therefore priority inversion not works as expected.
Could you check this problem ? Is this a bug, if not what is the purpose of this code ?
Thanks,
Şükrü Bahadır Arslan
Move the prototype for the internal OS from from sched/sched/sched.h to include/nuttx/sched.h. This was done because binfmt/binfmt/excecmodule.c requires the prototype for sched_releasetcb() and was illegally including sched/sched/sched.h. That is a blatant violation of the OS modular design and the person that did this should be hung up by their thumbs. Oh... I did that back in a bad moment in 2014. Now that is made right.
