dca77fa06a sigtimedwait: When timer expires, up_unblock_task() is called. This is okay in the single CPU case because interrupts are disable in the timer interrupt handler. But it is insufficient in the SMP case. enter_ and leave_critical_section() must be called in order to manage spinlocks correctly. 2017-02-24 10:07:23 -06:00

96394f339e SMP: Fix a gap where we may try to make modifications to the task lists without being in a critical sections. That permits concurrent access to the tasks lists and many subtle problems.

cfb876263a SMP: There were certain conditions that we must avoid by preventing releasing the pending tasks while withn a critical section. But this logic was incomplete; there was no logic to prevent other CPUs from adding new, running tasks while on CPU is in a critical section. 
This commit corrects this.  This is matching logic in sched_addreadytorun to avoid starting new tasks within the critical section (unless the CPU is the holder of the lock).  The holder of the IRQ lock must be permitted to do whatever it needs to do.

849a5dc2a9 SMP: Enforce this rule: Tasks which are normally restored when sched_unlock() is called must remain pending (1) if we are in a critical section, i.e., g_cpu_irqlock is locked , or (2) other CPUs still have pre-emption disabled, i.e., g_cpu_schedlock is locked. In those cases, the release of the pending tasks must be deferred until those conditions are met. 2016-12-26 08:15:02 -06:00

e24f281401 This commit adds a new internal interfaces and fixes a problem with three APIs in the SMP configuration. The new internal interface is sched_cpu_pause(tcb). This function will pause a CPU if the task associated with 'tcb' is running on that CPU. This allows a different CPU to modify that OS data stuctures associated with the CPU. When the other CPU is resumed, those modifications can safely take place. 
The three fixes are to handle cases in the SMP configuration where one CPU does need to make modifications to TCB and data structures on a task that could be running running on another CPU.  Those three cases are task_delete(), task_restart(), and execution of signal handles.  In all three cases the solutions is basically the same:  (1) Call sched_cpu_pause(tcb) to pause the CPU on which the task is running, (2) perform the necessary operations, then (3) call up_cpu_resume() to restart the paused CPU.

ceacacbc63 vfork(): Fix a race condition in the SMP case.

69e9f8638d Most interrupt handling logic interacts with tasks via standard mechanism such as sem_post, sigqueue, mq_send, etc. This all call enter_critical_section and are assumed to be safe in the SMP case. 
But certain logic interacts with tasks in different ways.  The only one that comes to mind are wdogs.  There is a tasking interface that to manipulate wdogs, and a different interface in the timer interrupt handling logic to manage wdog expirations.

In the normal case, this is fine.  Since the tasking level code calls enter_critical_section, interrupts are disabled an no conflicts can occur.  But that may not be the case in the SMP case.  Most architectures do not permit disabling interrupts on other CPUs so enter_critical_section must work differently:  Locks are required to protect code.

So this change adds locking (via enter_critical section) to wdog expiration logic for the the case if the SMP configuration.

484a1b6104 sem_wait() and sem_trywait() no longer modify the errno value UNLESS an error occurs. This allows these functions to be used internallly without clobbering the errno value. 2016-11-09 07:01:49 -06:00

8e94d8e7cc Signal sent from work_signal() may interrupt the low priority worker thread that is already running. For example, the worker thread that is waiting for a semaphore could be woken up by the signal and break any synchronization assumption as a result. It also does not make any sense to send signal if it is already running and busy. This commit fixes it. 2016-11-06 08:00:12 -06:00

3e13ed2400 Within the OS, when a thread obtains a semaphore count it must call sem_addholder() if CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE is enabled. If a count is available, then sem_wait() calls sem_addholder(), otherwise it waited for the semaphore and called sem_addholder() when it eventually received the count. 
This caused a problem when the thread calling sem_wait() was very low priority.  When it received the count, there may be higher priority threads "hogging" the CPU that prevent the lower priority task from running and, as a result, the sem_addholder() may be delayed indefinitely.

The fix was to have sem_post() call sem_addholder() just before restarting the thread waiting for the semaphore count.

This problem was noted by Benix Vincent who also suggested the solution.

8669183852 sched/pthread and task: When a pthread is started, there is a small bit of logic that will run on the thread of execution of the new pthread. In the case where the new pthread has a lower priority than the parent thread, then this could cause both the parent thread and the new pthread to be blocked at the priority of the lower priority pthread (assuming that CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE is not selected). 
This change temporarily boosts the priority of the new pthread to at least the priority of the new pthread to at least the priority of the parent thread.  When that bit of logic has executed on the thread of execution of the new pthread, it will then drop to the correct priority (if necessary) before calling into the new pthread's entry point.
