# # For a description of the syntax of this configuration file, # see the file kconfig-language.txt in the NuttX tools repository. # menuconfig DISABLE_OS_API bool "Disable NuttX interfaces" default y ---help--- The following can be used to disable categories of APIs supported by the OS. If the compiler supports weak functions, then it should not be necessary to disable functions unless you want to restrict usage of those APIs. There are certain dependency relationships in these features. 1) mq_notify logic depends on signals to awaken tasks waiting for queues to become full or empty. 2) pthread_condtimedwait() depends on signals to wake up waiting tasks. if DISABLE_OS_API config DISABLE_POSIX_TIMERS bool "Disable POSIX timers" default y if DEFAULT_SMALL default n if !DEFAULT_SMALL config DISABLE_PTHREAD bool "Disable pthread support" default n config DISABLE_SIGNALS bool "Disable signal support" default n config DISABLE_MQUEUE bool "Disable POSIX message queue support" default n config DISABLE_ENVIRON bool "Disable environment variable support" default y if DEFAULT_SMALL default n if !DEFAULT_SMALL endif # DISABLE_OS_API menu "Clocks and Timers" config ARCH_HAVE_TICKLESS bool config SCHED_TICKLESS bool "Support tick-less OS" default n depends on ARCH_HAVE_TICKLESS ---help--- By default, system time is driven by a periodic timer interrupt. An alternative configurations is a tick-less configuration in which there is no periodic timer interrupt. Instead and interval timer is used to schedule the next OS time event. This option selects that tick-less OS option. If the tick-less OS is selected, then there are additional platform specific interfaces that must be provided as defined include/nuttx/arch.h if SCHED_TICKLESS config SCHED_TICKLESS_ALARM bool "Tickless alarm" default n ---help--- The tickless option can be supported either via a simple interval timer (plus elapsed time) or via an alarm. The interval timer allows programming events to occur after an interval. With the alarm, you can set a time in the future and get an event when that alarm goes off. This option selects the use of an alarm. The advantage of an alarm is that it avoids some small timing errors; the advantage of the use of the interval timer is that the hardware requirement may be less. config SCHED_TICKLESS_LIMIT_MAX_SLEEP bool "Max sleep period (in microseconds)" default n ---help--- Enables use of the g_oneshot_maxticks variable. This variable is initialized by platform-specific logic at runtime to the maximum delay that the timer can wait (in configured clock ticks). The RTOS tickless logic will then limit all requested delays to this value. endif config USEC_PER_TICK int "System timer tick period (microseconds)" default 10000 if !SCHED_TICKLESS default 100 if SCHED_TICKLESS ---help--- In the "normal" configuration where system time is provided by a periodic timer interrupt, the default system timer is expected to run at 100Hz or USEC_PER_TICK=10000. This setting must be defined to inform of NuttX the interval that the the processor hardware is providing system timer interrupts to the OS. If SCHED_TICKLESS is selected, then there are no system timer interrupts. In this case, USEC_PER_TICK does not control any timer rates. Rather, it only determines the resolution of time reported by clock_systimer() and the resolution of times that can be set for certain delays including watchdog timers and delayed work. In this case there is a trade-off: It is better to have the USEC_PER_TICK as low as possible for higher timing resolution. However, the the time is currently held in 'unsigned int' on some systems, this may be 16-bits but on most contemporary systems it will be 32-bits. In either case, smaller values of USEC_PER_TICK will reduce the range of values that delays that can be represented. So the trade-off is between range and resolution (you could also modify the code to use a 64-bit value if you really want both). The default, 100 microseconds, will provide for a range of delays up to 120 hours. This value should never be less than the underlying resolution of the timer. Error may ensue. if !SCHED_TICKLESS config SYSTEMTICK_EXTCLK bool "Use external clock" default n depends on ARCH_HAVE_EXTCLK ---help--- Use external clock for system tick. When enabled, the platform-specific logic must start its own timer interrupt to make periodic calls to the sched_process_timer() or the functions called within. The purpose is to move the scheduling off the processor clock to allow entering low power states that would disable that clock. endif # !SCHED_TICKLESS config SYSTEM_TIME64 bool "64-bit system clock" default n ---help--- The system timer is incremented at the rate determined by USEC_PER_TICK, typically at 100Hz. The count at any given time is then the "uptime" in units of system timer ticks. By default, the system time is 32-bits wide. Those defaults provide a range of about 497 days which is probably a sufficient range for "uptime". However, if the system timer rate is significantly higher than 100Hz and/or if a very long "uptime" is required, then this option can be selected to support a 64-bit wide timer. config CLOCK_MONOTONIC bool "Support CLOCK_MONOTONIC" default n ---help--- CLOCK_MONOTONIC is an optional standard POSIX clock. Unlike CLOCK_REALTIME which can move forward and backward when the time-of-day changes, CLOCK_MONOTONIC is the elapsed time since some arbitrary point in the post (the system start-up time for NuttX) and, hence, is always monotonically increasing. CLOCK_MONOTONIC is, hence, the more appropriate clock for determining time differences. The value of the CLOCK_MONOTONIC clock cannot be set via clock_settime(). config ARCH_HAVE_TIMEKEEPING bool default n config CLOCK_TIMEKEEPING bool "Support timekeeping algorithms" default n depends on EXPERIMENTAL && ARCH_HAVE_TIMEKEEPING ---help--- CLOCK_TIMEKEEPING enables experimental time management algorithms. config JULIAN_TIME bool "Enables Julian time conversions" default n ---help--- Enables Julian time conversions config START_YEAR int "Start year" default 2017 range 1970 2106 ---help--- NuttX uses an unsigned 32-bit integer for time_t which provides a range from 1970 to 2106. config START_MONTH int "Start month" default 1 range 1 12 config START_DAY int "Start day" default 1 range 1 31 config MAX_WDOGPARMS int "Maximum number of watchdog parameters" default 4 ---help--- Maximum number of parameters that can be passed to a watchdog handler config PREALLOC_WDOGS int "Number of pre-allocated watchdog timers" default 32 ---help--- The number of pre-allocated watchdog structures. The system manages a pool of preallocated watchdog structures to minimize dynamic allocations. Dynamic allocations will still be made if this pool is exhausted. You will, however, get better performance and memory usage if this value is tuned to minimize such allocations. config WDOG_INTRESERVE int "Watchdog structures reserved for interrupt handlers" default 4 ---help--- Watchdog structures may be allocated from normal task and also from interrupt handlers. Interrupt handlers, however, can only use pre- allocated watchdog timer. So, in order to keep normal task allocations from exhausting all watchdog structures, a small number of pre-allocated watchdog timers must be reserved for exclusive use by interrupt handler. This setting determines that number of reserved watchdogs. config PREALLOC_TIMERS int "Number of pre-allocated POSIX timers" default 8 ---help--- The number of pre-allocated POSIX timer structures. The system manages a pool of preallocated timer structures to minimize dynamic allocations. Set to zero for all dynamic allocations. endmenu # Clocks and Timers menu "Tasks and Scheduling" config SPINLOCK bool "Support Spinlocks" default n ---help--- Enables suppport for spinlocks. Spinlocks are current used only for SMP suppport. config SMP bool "Symmetric Multi-Processing (SMP)" default n depends on ARCH_HAVE_MULTICPU select SPINLOCK ---help--- Enables support for Symmetric Multi-Processing (SMP) on a multi-CPU platform. if SMP config SMP_NCPUS int "Number of CPUs" default 4 range 1 32 if DEBUG_FEATURES range 2 32 if !DEBUG_FEATURES ---help--- This value identifies the number of CPUs supported by the processor that will be used for SMP. If CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES is enbled, then the value one is permitted for CONFIG_SMP_NCPUS. This is not normally a valid setting for an SMP configuration. However, running the SMP logic in a single CPU configuration is useful during certain testing. config SMP_IDLETHREAD_STACKSIZE int "CPU IDLE stack size" default 2048 ---help--- Each CPU will have its own IDLE task. System initialization occurs on CPU0 and uses CONFIG_IDLETHREAD_STACKSIZE which will probably be larger than is generally needed. This setting provides the stack size for the IDLE task on CPUS 1 through (CONFIG_SMP_NCPUS-1). endif # SMP choice prompt "Initialization Task" default INIT_ENTRYPOINT if !BUILD_KERNEL default INIT_FILEPATH if BUILD_KERNEL && !BINFMT_DISABLE default INIT_NONE if BUILD_KERNEL && BINFMT_DISABLE config INIT_NONE bool "None" config INIT_ENTRYPOINT bool "Via application entry point" depends on !BUILD_KERNEL config INIT_FILEPATH bool "Via executable file" depends on !BINFMT_DISABLE endchoice # Initialization task if INIT_ENTRYPOINT config USER_ENTRYPOINT string "Application entry point" default "main" ---help--- The name of the entry point for user applications. For the example applications this is of the form 'app_main' where 'app' is the application name. If not defined, USER_ENTRYPOINT defaults to "main". endif # INIT_ENTRYPOINT if INIT_FILEPATH config USER_INITPATH string "Application initialization path" default "/bin/init" ---help--- The name of the entry point for user applications. For the example applications this is of the form 'app_main' where 'app' is the application name. If not defined, USER_ENTRYPOINT defaults to "main". config INIT_SYMTAB string "Symbol table" default "NULL" depends on !BUILD_PROTECTED && !BUILD_KERNEL ---help--- The name of othe global array that holds the exported symbol table. The special string "NULL" may be provided if there is no symbol table. Quotation marks will be stripped when config.h is generated. NOTE: This setting cannot be used in protected or kernel builds. Any kernel mode symbols tables would not be usable for resolving symbols in user mode executables. config INIT_NEXPORTS string "Symbol table size" default "0" depends on !BUILD_PROTECTED && !BUILD_KERNEL ---help--- The size of the symbol table. NOTE that is is logically a numeric value but is represent by a string. That allows you to put sizeof(something) or a macro or a global variable name for the symbol table size. Quotation marks will be stripped when config.h is generated. NOTE: This setting cannot be used in protected or kernel builds. Any kernel mode symbols tables would not be usable for resolving symbols in user mode executables. endif # INIT_FILEPATH config RR_INTERVAL int "Round robin timeslice (MSEC)" default 0 ---help--- The round robin timeslice will be set this number of milliseconds; Round roben scheduling (SCHED_RR) is enabled by setting this interval to a positive, non-zero value. config SCHED_SPORADIC bool "Support sporadic scheduling" default n ---help--- Build in additional logic to support sporadic scheduling (SCHED_SPORADIC). if SCHED_SPORADIC config SCHED_SPORADIC_MAXREPL int "Maximum number of replenishments" default 3 range 1 255 ---help--- Controls the size of allocated replenishment structures and, hence, also limits the maximum number of replenishments. config SPORADIC_INSTRUMENTATION bool "Sporadic scheduler monitor hooks" default n ---help--- Enables instrumentation in the sporadic scheduler to monitor scheduler behavior. If enabled, then the board-specific logic must provide the following functions: void arch_sporadic_start(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); void arch_sporadic_lowpriority(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); void arch_sporadic_suspend(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); void arch_sporadic_resume(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); endif # SCHED_SPORADIC config TASK_NAME_SIZE int "Maximum task name size" default 31 ---help--- Spcifies that maximum size of a task name to save in the TCB. Useful if scheduler instrumentation is selected. Set to zero to disable. Excludes the NUL terminator; the actual allocated size willl be TASK_NAME_SIZE + 1. The default of 31 then results in a align-able 32-byte allocation.:: config MAX_TASKS int "Max number of tasks" default 32 ---help--- The maximum number of simultaneously active tasks. This value must be a power of two. config SCHED_HAVE_PARENT bool "Support parent/child task relationships" default n ---help--- Remember the ID of the parent task when a new child task is created. This support enables some additional features (such as SIGCHLD) and modifies the behavior of other interfaces. For example, it makes waitpid() more standards complete by restricting the waited-for tasks to the children of the caller. Default: disabled. config SCHED_CHILD_STATUS bool "Retain child exit status" default n depends on SCHED_HAVE_PARENT ---help--- If this option is selected, then the exit status of the child task will be retained after the child task exits. This option should be selected if you require knowledge of a child process' exit status. Without this setting, wait(), waitpid() or waitid() may fail. For example, if you do: 1) Start child task 2) Wait for exit status (using wait(), waitpid(), or waitid()). This can fail because the child task may run to completion before the wait begins. There is a non-standard work-around in this case: The above sequence will work if you disable pre-emption using sched_lock() prior to starting the child task, then re-enable pre- emption with sched_unlock() after the wait completes. This works because the child task is not permitted to run until the wait is in place. The standard solution would be to enable SCHED_CHILD_STATUS. In this case the exit status of the child task is retained after the child exits and the wait will successful obtain the child task's exit status whether it is called before the child task exits or not. Warning: If you enable this feature, then your application must either (1) take responsibility for reaping the child status with wait(), waitpid(), or waitid(), or (2) suppress retention of child status. If you do not reap the child status, then you have a memory leak and your system will eventually fail. Retention of child status can be suppressed on the parent using logic like: struct sigaction sa; sa.sa_handler = SIG_IGN; sa.sa_flags = SA_NOCLDWAIT; int ret = sigaction(SIGCHLD, &sa, NULL); if SCHED_CHILD_STATUS config PREALLOC_CHILDSTATUS int "Number of pre-allocated child status" default 0 ---help--- To prevent runaway child status allocations and to improve allocation performance, child task exit status structures are pre- allocated when the system boots. This setting determines the number of child status structures that will be pre-allocated. If this setting is not defined or if it is defined to be zero then a value of 2*MAX_TASKS is used. Note that there cannot be more than MAX_TASKS tasks in total. However, the number of child status structures may need to be significantly larger because this number includes the maximum number of tasks that are running PLUS the number of tasks that have exit'ed without having their exit status reaped (via wait(), waitid(), or waitpid()). Obviously, if tasks spawn children indefinitely and never have the exit status reaped, then you may have a memory leak! If you enable the SCHED_CHILD_STATUS feature, then your application must take responsibility for either (1) reaping the child status with wait(), waitpid(), or waitid() or it must (2) suppress retention of child status. Otherwise, your system will eventually fail. Retention of child status can be suppressed on the parent using logic like: struct sigaction sa; sa.sa_handler = SIG_IGN; sa.sa_flags = SA_NOCLDWAIT; int ret = sigaction(SIGCHLD, &sa, NULL); config DEBUG_CHILDSTATUS bool "Enable Child Status Debug Output" default n depends on SCHED_CHILD_STATUS && DEBUG_FEATURES ---help--- Very detailed... I am sure that you do not want this. endif # SCHED_CHILD_STATUS config SCHED_WAITPID bool "Enable waitpid() API" default n ---help--- Enables the waitpid() interface in a default, non-standard mode (non-standard in the sense that the waited for PID need not be child of the caller). If SCHED_HAVE_PARENT is also defined, then this setting will modify the behavior or waitpid() (making more spec compliant) and will enable the waitid() and wait() interfaces as well. endmenu # Tasks and Scheduling menu "Pthread Options" depends on !DISABLE_PTHREAD config PTHREAD_MUTEX_TYPES bool "Enable mutex types" default n ---help--- Set to enable support for recursive and errorcheck mutexes. Enables pthread_mutexattr_settype(). choice prompt "pthread mutex robustness" default PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST if !DEFAULT_SMALL default PTHREAD_UNSAFE if DEFAULT_SMALL config PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST bool "Robust mutexes" ---help--- Support only the robust form of the NORMAL mutex. config PTHREAD_MUTEX_UNSAFE bool "Traditional unsafe mutexes" ---help--- Support only the traditional non-robust form of the NORMAL mutex. You should select this option only for backward compatibility with software you may be porting or, perhaps, if you are trying to minimize footprint. config PTHREAD_MUTEX_BOTH bool "Both robust and unsafe mutexes" ---help--- Support both forms of NORMAL mutexes. endchoice # pthread mutex robustness choice prompt "Default NORMAL mutex robustness" default PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT_ROBUST depends on PTHREAD_MUTEX_BOTH config PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT_ROBUST bool "Robust default" ---help--- The default is robust NORMAL mutexes (non-standard) config PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT_UNSAFE bool "Unsafe default" ---help--- The default is traditional unsafe NORMAL mutexes (standard) endchoice # Default NORMAL mutex robustness config NPTHREAD_KEYS int "Maximum number of pthread keys" default 4 ---help--- The number of items of thread- specific data that can be retained config PTHREAD_CLEANUP bool "pthread cleanup stack" default n ---help--- Select to enable support for pthread exit cleanup stacks. This enables the interfaces pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop(). config PTHREAD_CLEANUP_STACKSIZE int "pthread cleanup stack size" default 1 range 1 32 depends on PTHREAD_CLEANUP ---help--- The maximum number of cleanup actions that may be pushed by pthread_clean_push(). This setting will increase the size of EVERY pthread task control block by about n * CONFIG_PTHREAD_CLEANUP_STACKSIZE where n is the size of a pointer, 2* sizeof(uintptr_t), this would be 8 for a CPU with 32-bit addressing and 4 for a CPU with 16-bit addressing. endmenu # Pthread Options config CANCELLATION_POINTS bool "Cancellation points" default n ---help--- Enable POSIX cancellation points for pthread_cancel(). If selected, cancellation points will also used with the () task_delete() API even if pthreads are not enabled. menu "Performance Monitoring" config SCHED_CPULOAD bool "Enable CPU load monitoring" default n select SCHED_CPULOAD_EXTCLK if SCHED_TICKLESS ---help--- If this option is selected, the timer interrupt handler will monitor if the system is IDLE or busy at the time of that the timer interrupt occurs. This is a very coarse measurement, but over a period of time, it can very accurately determined the percentage of the time that the CPU is IDLE. The statistics collected in this could be used, for example in the PROCFS file system to provide CPU load measurements when read. Note that in tickless mode of operation (SCHED_TICKLESS) there is no system timer interrupt and CPU load measurements will not be possible unless you provide an alternative clock to driver the sampling and select SCHED_CPULOAD_EXTCLK. if SCHED_CPULOAD config SCHED_CPULOAD_EXTCLK bool "Use external clock" default n ---help--- The CPU load measurements are determined by sampling the active tasks periodically at the occurrence to a timer expiration. By default, the system clock is used to do that sampling. There is a serious issue for the accuracy of measurements if the system clock is used, however. NuttX threads are often started at the time of the system timer expiration. Others may be stopped at the time of the system timer expiration (if round-robin time-slicing is enabled). Such thread behavior occurs synchronously with the system timer and, hence, is not randomly sampled. As a consequence, the CPU load attributed to these threads that run synchronously with they system timer may be grossly in error. The solution is to use some other clock that runs at a different rate and has timer expirations that are asynchronous with the system timer. Then truly accurate load measurements can be achieved. This option enables use of such an "external" clock. The implementation of the clock must be provided by platform-specific logic; that platform-specific logic must call the system function sched_process_cpuload() at each timer expiration with interrupts disabled. if SCHED_CPULOAD_EXTCLK config SCHED_CPULOAD_TICKSPERSEC int "External clock rate" default 100 ---help--- If an external clock is used to drive the sampling for the CPU load calculations, then this value must be provided. This value provides the rate of the external clock interrupts in units of ticks per second. The default value of 100 corresponds to a 100Hz clock. NOTE: that 100Hz is the default frequency of the system time and, hence, the worst possible choice in most cases. config CPULOAD_ONESHOT bool "Use Oneshot timer" default n ---help--- Use an MCU-specific oneshot timer as the external clock. The oneshot timer must be configured by board specific logic which must then call: void sched_oneshot_extclk(FAR struct oneshot_lowerhalf_s *lower); To start the CPU load measurement. See include/nuttx/clock.h NOTE that in this configuration, CONFIG_SCHED_CPULOAD_TICKSPERSEC is the sample rate that will be accomplished by programming the oneshot time repeatedly. If CPULOAD_ONESHOT_ENTROPY is also selected, then the underly frequency driving the oneshote timer must be significantly faster than CONFIG_SCHED_CPULOAD_TICKSPERSE to permit precise modulation the sample periods. config CPULOAD_ONESHOT_ENTROPY int "Bits of entropy" default 6 range 0 30 ---help--- This is the number of bits of entropy that will be applied. The oneshot will be set to this interval: CPULOAD_ONESHOT_NOMINAL - (CPULOAD_ONESHOT_ENTROPY / 2) + error + nrand(CPULOAD_ONESHOT_ENTROPY) Where CPULOAD_ONESHOT_NOMINAL is the nominal sample internval implied by CONFIG_SCHED_CPULOAD_TICKSPERSEC in units of microseconds. CPULOAD_ONESHOT_ENTROPY is (1 << CONFIG_CPULOAD_ONESHOT_ENTROPY), and 'error' is an error value that is retained from interval to interval so that although individual intervals are randomized, the average will still be CONFIG_SCHED_CPULOAD_TICKSPERSEC. This special value of zero disables entropy. endif # SCHED_CPULOAD_EXTCLK config SCHED_CPULOAD_TIMECONSTANT int "CPU load time constant" default 2 ---help--- The accumulated CPU count is divided by two when the accumulated tick count exceeds this time constant. This time constant is in units of seconds. endif # SCHED_CPULOAD config SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION bool "System performance monitor hooks" default n ---help--- Enables instrumentation in scheduler to monitor system performance. If enabled, then the board-specific logic must provide the following functions (see include/sched.h): void sched_note_start(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); void sched_note_stop(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); void sched_note_suspend(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); void sched_note_resume(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); If CONFIG_SMP is enabled, then these additional interfaces are expected: void sched_note_cpu_pause(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb, int cpu); void sched_note_cpu_paused(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); void sched_note_cpu_resume(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb, int cpu); void sched_note_cpu_resumed(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb); NOTE: These are internal OS interfaces and are called at at very critical locations in the OS. There is very little that can be done in these interfaces. For example, normal devices may not be used; syslog output cannot be performed. An option is to use SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_BUFFER below. if SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION config SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_CPUSET hex "CPU bit set" default 0xffff depends on SMP ---help--- Monitor only CPUs in the bitset. Bit 0=CPU0, Bit1=CPU1, etc. config SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_PREEMPTION bool "Preemption monitor hooks" default n ---help--- Enables additional hooks for changes to pre-emption state. Board- specific logic must provide this additional logic. void sched_note_premption(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb, bool state); config SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_CSECTION bool "Critical section monitor hooks" default n ---help--- Enables additional hooks for entry and exit from critical sections. Interrupts are disabled while within a critical section. Board- specific logic must provide this additional logic. void sched_note_csection(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb, bool state); config SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_SPINLOCKS bool "Spinlock monitor hooks" default n ---help--- Enables additional hooks for spinlock state.

This has the advantage that (1) the platform logic does not have to provide the sched_note_* interaces described for the previous settings. Instead, the buffering logic catches all of these. It encodes timestamps the scheduler note and adds the note to an in-memory, circular buffer. And (2) buffering the scheduler instrumentation data (versus performing some output operation) minimizes the impact of the instrumentation on the behavior of the system. If the in-memory buffer becomes full, then older notes are overwritten by newer notes. The following interface is provided: ssize_t sched_note_get(FAR uint8_t *buffer, size_t buflen); Platform specific information must call this function and dispose of it quickly so that overwriting of the tail of the circular buffer does not occur. See include/nuttx/sched_note.h for additional information. if SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_BUFFER config SCHED_NOTE_BUFSIZE int "Instrumentation buffer size" default 2048 ---help--- The size of the in-memory, circular instrumentation buffer (in bytes). config SCHED_NOTE_GET int "Callable interface to get instrumentatin data" default 2048 depends on !SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_CSECTION && (!SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_SPINLOCK || !SMP) ---help--- Add support for interfaces to get the size of the next note and also to extract the next note from the instrumentation buffer: ssize_t sched_note_get(FAR uint8_t *buffer, size_t buflen); ssize_t sched_note_size(void); NOTE: This option is not available if critical sections are being monitor (nor if spinlocks are being monitored in SMP configuration) because there would be a logical error in the design in those cases. That error is that these interfaces call enter_ and leave_critical_section (and which us spinlocks in SMP mode). That means that each call to sched_note_get() causes several additional entries to be added from the note buffer in order to remove one entry. endif # SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION_BUFFER endif # SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION endmenu # Performance Monitoring menu "Files and I/O" config DEV_CONSOLE bool "Enable /dev/console" default y ---help--- Set if architecture-specific logic provides /dev/console at boot-up time. Enables stdout, stderr, stdin in the start-up application. You need this setting if your console device is ready at boot time. For example, if you are using a serial console, then /dev/console (aka, /dev/ttyS0) will be available when the application first starts. You must not select DEV_CONSOLE if you console device comes up later and is not ready until after the application starts. At this time, the only console device that behaves this way is a USB serial console. When the application first starts, the USB is (probably) not yet connected and /dev/console will not be created until later when the host connects to the USB console. config FDCLONE_DISABLE bool "Disable cloning of file descriptors" default n ---help--- Disable cloning of all file descriptors by task_create() when a new ask is started.

When this option is enabled, the initial configuration of all seamphores and mutexes will be with priority inheritance enabled. That configuration may not be appropriate in all cases (such as when the semaphore or mutex is used for signaling). In such cases, priority inheritance be be disabled for individual semaphores by calling: int ret = sem_setprotocol(&sem, SEM_PRIO_NONE); And for individual pthread mutexes by setting the protocol attribute before initializing the mutex: int ret = pthread_mutexattr_setprotocol(&attr, PTHREAD_PRIO_NONE); if PRIORITY_INHERITANCE config SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS int "Number of pre-allocated holders" default 16 ---help--- This setting is only used if priority inheritance is enabled. It defines the maximum number of different threads (minus one) that can take counts on a semaphore with priority inheritance support. This may be set to zero if priority inheritance is disabled OR if you are only using semaphores as mutexes (only one holder) OR if no more than two threads participate using a counting semaphore. config SEM_NNESTPRIO int "Maximum number of higher priority threads" default 16 ---help--- If priority inheritance is enabled, then this setting is the maximum number of higher priority threads (minus 1) than can be waiting for another thread to release a count on a semaphore. This value may be set to zero if no more than one thread is expected to wait for a semaphore. endif # PRIORITY_INHERITANCE menu "RTOS hooks" config BOARD_INITIALIZE bool "Custom board/driver initialization" default n ---help--- By default, there are three points in time where you can insert custom initialization logic: 1) _boardinitialize(): This function is used only for initialization of very low-level things like configuration of GPIO pins, power setting. The OS has not been initialized at this point, so you cannot allocate memory or initialize device drivers at this phase. 2) The next level of initialization is performed by a call to up_initialize() (in arch//src/common/up_initialize.c). The OS has been initialized at this point and it is okay to initialize drivers in this phase. 3) And, finally, when the user application code starts. If BOARD_INITIALIZE is selected, then an additional initialization call will be performed in the boot-up sequence to a function called board_initialize(). board_initialize() will be call between phases 2) and 3) above, immediately after up_initialize() is called. This additional initialization phase may be used, for example, to initialize board-specific device drivers. if BOARD_INITIALIZE config BOARD_INITTHREAD bool "Board initialization thread" default n ---help--- Some initialization operations cannot be performed on the start-up, initialization thread. That is because the initialization thread cannot wait for event. If waiting is required as part of the board initialization then this option must be selected. Waiting may be required, for example, to mount a file system or or initialize a device such as an SD card. if BOARD_INITTHREAD config BOARD_INITTHREAD_STACKSIZE int "Board initialization thread stack size" default 2048 ---help--- The size of the stack to allocate when starting the board initialization thread. config BOARD_INITTHREAD_PRIORITY int "Board initialization thread priority" default 240 ---help--- The priority of the board initialization thread.

This feature is required for some drivers but, if there are no complaints, can be safely disabled. The high priority worker thread also performs garbage collection -- completing any delayed memory deallocations from interrupt handlers. If the high-priority worker thread is disabled, then that clean up will be performed either by (1) the low-priority worker thread, if enabled, and if not (2) the IDLE thread instead (which runs at the lowest of priority and may not be appropriate if memory reclamation is of high priority) For other, less-critical asynchronous or delayed process, the low-priority worker thread is recommended. if SCHED_HPWORK config SCHED_HPWORKPRIORITY int "High priority worker thread priority" default 224 ---help--- The execution priority of the higher priority worker thread.

Typically, it should be the highest priority thread in your system. Default: 224 For lower priority, application oriented worker thread support, please consider enabling the lower priority work queue. The lower priority work queue runs at a lower priority, of course, but has the added advantage that it supports "priority inheritance" (if PRIORITY_INHERITANCE is also selected): The priority of the lower priority worker thread can then be adjusted to match the highest priority client. config SCHED_HPWORKPERIOD int "High priority worker thread period" default 100000 if SCHED_LPWORK default 50000 if !SCHED_LPWORK ---help--- How often the worker thread checks for work in units of microseconds.

This is essentially a "thread pool" that provides multi-threaded servicing of the low-priority work queue. This breaks the serialization of the "queue" (hence, it is no longer a queue at all). This options is required to support, for example, I/O operations that stall waiting for input. If there is only a single thread, then the entire low-priority queue processing stalls in such cases. Such behavior is necessary to support asynchronous I/O, AIO (for example). CAUTION: Some drivers may use the work queue to serialize operations. The may also use the low-priority work queue if it is available. If there are multiple low-priority worker thread, then this can result in the loss of that serialization. There may be concurrent driver operations running on different LP threads and this could lead to a failure.

The lower priority worker thread is intended support application- oriented functions. The lower priority work queue runs at a lower priority, of course, but has the added advantage that it supports "priority inheritance" (if PRIORITY_INHERITANCE is also selected): The priority of the lower priority worker thread can then be adjusted to match the highest priority client. Default: 50 NOTE: This priority inheritance feature is not automatic. The lower priority worker thread will always a fixed priority unless you implement logic that calls lpwork_boostpriority() to raise the priority of the lower priority worker thread (typically called before scheduling the work) and then call the matching lpwork_restorepriority() when the work is completed (typically called within the work handler at the completion of the work). Currently, only the NuttX asynchronous I/O logic uses this dynamic prioritization feature. The higher priority worker thread, on the other hand, is intended to serve as the "bottom" half for device drivers. As a consequence it must run at a very high, fixed priority. Typically, it should be the highest priority thread in your system. config SCHED_LPWORKPRIOMAX int "Low priority worker thread maximum priority" default 176 depends on PRIORITY_INHERITANCE ---help--- The maximum execution priority of the lower priority worker thread.

The lower priority work queue runs at a lower priority, of course, but has the added advantage that it supports "priority inheritance" (if PRIORITY_INHERITANCE is also selected): The priority of the lower priority worker thread can then be adjusted to match the highest priority client. The higher priority worker thread, on the other hand, is intended to serve as the "bottom" half for device drivers. As a consequence it must run at a very high, fixed priority. Typically, it should be the highest priority thread in your system. This value provides an upper limit on the priority of the lower priority worker thread. This would be necessary, for example, if the higher priority worker thread were to defer work to the lower priority thread. Clearly, in such a case, you would want to limit the maximum priority of the lower priority work thread.
