Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) Application
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
According to Wikipedia: "Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) involves
|
|
a symmetric multiprocessor system hardware and software
|
|
architecture where two or more identical processors connect to a
|
|
single, shared main memory, have full access to all I/O devices,
|
|
and are controlled by a single operating system instance that
|
|
treats all processors equally, reserving none for special
|
|
purposes. Most multiprocessor systems today use an SMP
|
|
architecture. In the case of multi-core processors, the SMP
|
|
architecture applies to the cores, treating them as separate
|
|
processors.
|
|
|
|
"SMP systems are tightly coupled multiprocessor systems with a
|
|
pool of homogeneous processors running independently, each
|
|
processor executing different programs and working on different
|
|
data and with capability of sharing common resources (memory, I/O
|
|
device, interrupt system and so on) and connected using a system
|
|
bus or a crossbar."
|
|

.. c:function:: spinlock_t up_testset(volatile FAR spinlock_t *lock)
|
|
|
|
Perform and atomic test and set operation on the provided spinlock.
|
|
|
|
:param lock: The address of spinlock object.
|
|
|
|
:return: The spinlock is always locked upon return. The value
|
|
of previous value of the spinlock variable is returned,
|
|
either SP_LOCKED if the spinlock was previously locked
|
|
(meaning that the test-and-set operation failed to obtain the lock)
|
|
or SP_UNLOCKED if the spinlock was previously unlocked
|
|
(meaning that we successfully obtained the lock)
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int up_cpu_index(void)
|
|
|
|
Return an index in the range of 0 through (CONFIG_SMP_NCPUS-1)
|
|
that corresponds to the currently executing CPU.
|
|
|
|
:return: An integer index in the range of 0 through
|
|
(CONFIG_SMP_NCPUS-1) that corresponds to the
|
|
currently executing CPU.
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int up_cpu_start(int cpu)
|
|
|
|
In an SMP configuration, only one CPU is initially active (CPU 0).
|
|
System initialization occurs on that single thread. At the
|
|
completion of the initialization of the OS, just before
|
|
beginning normal multitasking, the additional CPUs would
|
|
be started by calling this function.
|
|
|
|
Each CPU is provided the entry point to is IDLE task when started.
|
|
A TCB for each CPU's IDLE task has been initialized and
|
|
placed in the CPU's g_assignedtasks[cpu] list. A stack
|
|
has also been allocated and initialized.
|
|
|
|
The OS initialization logic calls this function repeatedly until
|
|
each CPU has been started, 1 through (CONFIG_SMP_NCPUS-1).
|
|
|
|
:param cpu: The index of the CPU being started. This will be a
|
|
numeric value in the range of from one to
|
|
``(CONFIG_SMP_NCPUS-1)``). (CPU 0 is already active).
|
|
|
|
:return: Zero (OK) is returned on success; a negated errno value on failure.
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int up_cpu_pause(int cpu)
|
|
|
|
Save the state of the current task at the head of the
|
|
``g_assignedtasks[cpu]`` task list and then pause task execution on the CPU.
|
|
|
|
This function is called by the OS when the logic executing on
|
|
one CPU needs to modify the state of the ``g_assignedtasks[cpu]``
|
|
list for another CPU.
|
|
|
|
:param cpu: The index of the CPU to be paused. This will not be
|
|
the index of the currently executing CPU.
|
|
|
|
:return: Zero (OK) is returned on success; a negated errno value on failure.
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int up_cpu_resume(int cpu)
|
|
|
|
Restart the cpu after it was paused via up_cpu_pause(),
|
|
restoring the state of the task at the head of the
|
|
``g_assignedtasks[cpu]`` list, and resume normal tasking.
|
|
|
|
This function is called after ``up_cpu_pause()`` in order
|
|
resume operation of the CPU after modifying its
|
|
``g_assignedtasks[cpu]`` list.
|
|
|
|
:param cpu: The index of the CPU being resumed. This will not be
|
|
the index of the currently executing CPU.
|
|
|
|
:return: Zero (OK) is returned on success; a negated errno value on failure.
