The intended audience for this document are firmware developers who are implementing applications on NuttX.
|
||
|
|
Specifically, this documented is limited to addressing only NuttX RTOS APIs that are available to the application developer.
|
||
|
|
As such, this document does not focus on any technical details of the organization or implementation of NuttX.
|
||
|
|
Those technical details are provided in the <a href="NuttxPortingGuide.html">NuttX Porting Guide</a>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Information about configuring and building NuttX is also needed by the application developer.
|
||
|
|
That information can also be found in the <a href="NuttxPortingGuide.html#configandbuild">NuttX Porting Guide</a>.

This section describes each C-callable interface to the NuttX
|
||
|
|
Operating System. The description of each interface is presented
|
||
|
|
in the following format:
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>Function Prototype:</b> The C prototype of the interface function
|
||
|
|
is provided.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>Description:</b> The operation performed by the interface function
|
||
|
|
is discussed.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>Input Parameters:</b> All input parameters are listed along
|
||
|
|
with brief descriptions of each input parameter.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>Returned Values:</b> All possible values returned by the interface
|
||
|
|
function are listed. Values returned as side-effects (through
|
||
|
|
pointer input parameters or through global variables) will be
|
||
|
|
addressed in the description of the interface function.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>Assumptions/Limitations:</b> Any unusual assumptions made by
|
||
|
|
the interface function or any non-obvious limitations to the use
|
||
|
|
of the interface function will be indicated here.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>POSIX Compatibility:</b> Any significant differences between the
|
||
|
|
NuttX interface and its corresponding POSIX interface will be noted
|
||
|
|
here.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
NOTE: In order to achieve an independent name space for the NuttX
|
||
|
|
interface functions, differences in function names and types are
|
||
|
|
to be expected and will not be identified as differences in these
|
||
|
|
paragraphs.

<b>Tasks</b>.
|
||
|
|
NuttX is a flat address OS. As such it does not support <i>processes</i>
|
||
|
|
in the way that, say, Linux does.
|
||
|
|
NuttX only supports simple threads running within the same address space.
|
||
|
|
However, the programming model makes a distinction between <i>tasks</i>
|
||
|
|
and <i>pthreads</i>:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>tasks</i> are threads which have a degree of independence
|
||
|
|
<li><a href="#Pthread"><i>pthreads</i></a> share some resources.
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>File Descriptors and Streams</b>.
|
||
|
|
This applies, in particular, in the area of opened file descriptors and streams.
|
||
|
|
When a task is started using the interfaces in this section, it will be created
|
||
|
|
with at most three open files.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
If CONFIG_DEV_CONSOLE is defined, the first three file descriptors (corresponding
|
||
|
|
to stdin, stdout, stderr) will be duplicated for the new task.
|
||
|
|
Since these file descriptors are duplicated, the child task can free close
|
||
|
|
them or manipulate them in any way without effecting the parent task.
|
||
|
|
File-related operations (open, close, etc.) within a task will have no effect
|
||
|
|
on other tasks.
|
||
|
|
Since the three file descriptors are duplicated, it is also possible to perform
|
||
|
|
some level of redirection.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
pthreads, on the other hand, will always share file descriptors with the parent
|
||
|
|
thread. In this case, file operations will have effect only all pthreads the
|
||
|
|
were started from the same parent thread.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Executing Programs within a File System</b>.
|
||
|
|
NuttX also provides internal interfaces for the execution of separately built
|
||
|
|
programs that reside in a file system.
|
||
|
|
These internal interfaces are, however, non-standard and are documented
|
||
|
|
<a href="NuttXNxFlat.html#binfmt">elsewhere</a>.
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Task Control Interfaces</b>.
|
||
|
|
The following task control interfaces are provided by NuttX:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><a href="#taskcreate">2.1.1 task_create</a></li>

|
<b>Function Prototype:</b>
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
#include <sched.h>
|
||
|
|
int task_create(char *name, int priority, int stack_size, main_t entry, const char *argv[]);
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
This function creates and activates a new task with a
|
||
|
|
specified priority and returns its system-assigned ID.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The entry address entry is the address of the "main"
|
||
|
|
function of the task.
|
||
|
|
This function will be called once the C environment has been set up.
|
||
|
|
The specified function will be called with four arguments.
|
||
|
|
Should the specified routine return, a call to exit() will automatically be made.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Note that an arbitrary number of arguments may be passed to the
|
||
|
|
spawned functions. The maximum umber of arguments is an OS
|
||
|
|
configuration parameter (<code>CONFIG_MAX_TASK_ARGS</code>).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The arguments are copied (via <code>strdup</code>) so that the
|
||
|
|
life of the passed strings is not dependent on the life of the
|
||
|
|
caller to <code>task_create()</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The newly created task does not inherit scheduler characteristics
|
||
|
|
from the parent task: The new task is started at the
|
||
|
|
default system priority and with the SCHED_FIFO scheduling
|
||
|
|
policy. These characteristics may be modified after the new
|
||
|
|
task has been started.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The newly created task does inherit the first three file
|
||
|
|
descriptors (corresponding to stdin, stdout, and stderr) and
|
||
|
|
redirection of standard I/O is supported.
|
||
|
|

|
<li><i>argv</i>. A pointer to an array of input parameters. Up to

<code>CONFIG_MAX_TASK_ARG</code> parameters may be provided.
|
||
|
|
If fewer than <code>CONFIG_MAX_TASK_ARG</code> parameters are
|
||
|
|
passed, the list should be terminated with a NULL argv[] value.
|
||

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
This function initializes a Task Control Block (TCB)
|
||
|
|
in preparation for starting a new thread. It performs a subset
|

|
|
of the functionality of <code>task_create()</code> (see above).
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Unlike task_create(), task_init() does not activate the task.
|
||
|
|
This must be done by calling task_activate().

<li><i>name</i>. Name of the new task (not used)
|

|
|
<li><i>priority</i>. Priority of the new task
|
||
|
|
<li><i>stack</i>. Start of the pre-allocated stack
|

|
|
<li><i>stack_size</i>. size (in bytes) of the pre-allocated stack

|
By default, NuttX performs strict priority scheduling: Tasks of higher
|
||
|
|
priority have exclusive access to the CPU until they become blocked.
|
||
|
|
At that time, the CPU is available to tasks of lower priority.
|
||
|
|
Tasks of equal priority are scheduled FIFO.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Optionally, a Nuttx task or thread can be configured with round-robin
|
||
|
|
scheduler. This is similar to priority scheduling <i>except</i> that
|
||
|
|
tasks with equal priority and share CPU time via <i>time-slicing</i>.
|
||
|
|
The time-slice interval is a constant determined by the configuration
|
||
|
|
setting <code>CONFIG_RR_INTERVAL</code>.

<b>Description:</b> This function establish a connection between

a named message queue and the calling task. After a successful

<b>Input Parameters:</b>
|

|
|
<ul>
|
||

|
|
<li><i>oflags</i>. Open flags. These may be any combination of:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>O_RDONLY</i>. Open for read access.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>O_WRONLY</i>. Open for write access.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>O_RDWR</i>. Open for both read & write access.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>O_CREAT</i>. Create message queue if it does not already
|
||
|
|
exist.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>O_EXCL</i>. Name must not exist when opened.

|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<li><i>... Optional parameters</i>.
|

|
|
<ul>

|
<li><i>mode</i>. The mode parameter is of type mode_t. In the POSIX
|
||
|
|
specification, this mode value provides file permission bits for the
|
||
|
|
message queue. This parameter is required but not used in the present
|
||
|
|
implementation.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>attr</i>. A pointer to an mq_attr that is provided to initialize.
|
||
|
|
the message queue. If attr is NULL, then the messages queue is created
|
||
|
|
with implementation-defined default message queue attributes. If attr is
|
||
|
|
non-NULL, then the message queue mq_maxmsg attribute is set to the
|
||
|
|
corresponding value when the queue is created. The mq_maxmsg attribute
|
||
|
|
determines the maximum number of messages that can be queued before
|
||
|

<b>Description:</b> This function is used to indicate that the

inconsistent with the POSIX specification which states, "If a process

<b>Semaphores</b>. Semaphores are the basis for
|
||
|
|
synchronization and mutual exclusion in NuttX. NuttX supports
|
||
|
|
POSIX semaphores.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Semaphores are the preferred mechanism for gaining exclusive access to a
|
||
|
|
resource. sched_lock() and sched_unlock() can also be used for this purpose.
|
||
|
|
However, sched_lock() and sched_unlock() have other undesirable side-affects
|
||
|
|
in the operation of the system: sched_lock() also prevents higher-priority
|
||
|
|
tasks from running that do not depend upon the semaphore-managed resource
|
||
|
|
and, as a result, can adversely affect system response times.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<a name="priorityinversion"><b>Priority Inversion</b></a>.
|
||
|
|
Proper use of semaphores avoids the issues of <code>sched_lock()</code>.
|
||
|
|
However, consider the following example:
|
||
|
|
<OL>
|
||
|
|
<li>Some low-priority task, <i>Task C</i>, acquires a semaphore in order to
|
||
|
|
get exclusive access to a protected resource.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>Task C</i> is suspended to allow some high-priority task,</li>
|
||
|
|
<i>Task A</i>, to execute.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>Task A</i> attempts to acquire the semaphore held by <i>Task C</i> and
|
||
|
|
gets blocked until <i>Task C</i> relinquishes the semaphore.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>Task C</i> is allowed to execute again, but gets suspended by some
|
||
|
|
medium-priority <i>Task B</i>.</li>
|
||
|
|
</OL>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
At this point, the high-priority <i>Task A</i> cannot execute until
|
||
|
|
<i>Task B</i> (and possibly other medium-priority tasks) completes and until
|
||
|
|
<i>Task C</i> relinquishes the semaphore. In effect, the high-priority task,
|
||
|
|
<i>Task A</i> behaves as though it were lower in priority than the
|
||
|
|
low-priority task, <i>Task C</i>! This phenomenon is called <i>priority
|
||
|
|
inversion</i>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Some operating systems avoid priority inversion by <i>automatically</i>
|
||
|
|
increasing the priority of the low-priority <i>Task C</i> (the operable
|
||
|
|
buzz-word for this behavior is <i>priority inheritance</i>). NuttX
|
||
|
|
supports this behavior, but only if <code>CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE</code>
|
||
|
|
is defined in your OS configuration file. If <code>CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE</code>
|
||
|
|
is not defined, then it is left to the designer to provide implementations
|
||
|
|
that will not suffer from priority inversion.
|
||
|
|
The designer may, as examples:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Implement all tasks that need the semaphore-managed resources at the
|
||
|
|
same priority level,</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Boost the priority of the low-priority task before the semaphore is
|
||
|
|
acquired, or</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Use sched_lock() in the low-priority task.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<a name="priorityinheritance"><b>Priority Inheritance</b></a>.
|
||
|
|
As mentioned, NuttX does support <i>priority inheritance</i> provided that
|
||
|
|
<code>CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE</code> is defined in your OS configuration file.
|
||
|
|
However, the implementation and configuration of the priority inheritance feature
|
||
|
|
is sufficiently complex that more needs to be said.
|
||
|
|
How can a feature that can be described by a single, simple sentence require such
|
||
|
|
a complex implementation:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<b><code>CONFIG_SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS</code>.</b>
|
||
|
|
First of all, in NuttX priority inheritance is implement on POSIX counting
|
||
|
|
semaphores. The reason for this is that these semaphores are the most
|
||
|
|
primitive waiting mechanism in NuttX; Most other waiting facilities are
|
||
|
|
based on semaphores. So if priority inheritance is implemented for POSIX
|
||
|
|
counting semaphores, then most NuttX waiting mechanisms will have this
|
||
|
|
capability.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Complexity arises because counting semaphores can have numerous
|
||
|
|
holders of semaphore counts. Therefore, in order to implement
|
||
|
|
priority inheritance across all holders, then internal data
|
||
|
|
structures must be allocated to manage the various holders associated
|
||
|
|
with a semaphore.
|
||
|
|
The setting <code>CONFIG_SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS</code> defines the maximum
|
||
|
|
number of different threads (minus one per semaphore instance) that can
|
||
|
|
take counts on a semaphore with priority inheritance support.
|
||
|
|
This setting defines the size of a single pool of pre-allocated structures.
|
||
|
|
It 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.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The cost associated with setting <code>CONFIG_SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS</code>
|
||
|
|
is slightly increased code size and around 6-12 bytes times the value
|
||
|
|
of <code>CONFIG_SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<b><code>CONFIG_SEM_NNESTPRIO</code>:</b>
|
||
|
|
In addition, there may be multiple threads of various priorities that
|
||
|
|
need to wait for a count from the semaphore.
|
||
|
|
These, the lower priority thread holding the semaphore may have to
|
||
|
|
be boosted numerous time and, to make things more complex, will have
|
||
|
|
to keep track of all of the boost priorities values in in order to
|
||
|
|
correctly restore the priorities after a count has been handed out
|
||
|
|
to the higher priority thread.
|
||
|
|
The <code>CONFIG_SEM_NNESTPRIO</code> defines the size of an array,
|
||
|
|
one array per active thread.
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The cost associated with setting <code>CONFIG_SEM_NNESTPRIO</code>
|
||
|
|
is slightly increased code size and (<code>CONFIG_SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS</code> + 1)
|
||
|
|
times the maximum number of active threads.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<b>Increased Susceptibility to Bad Thread Behavior</b>.
|
||
|
|
These various structures tie the semaphore implementation more tightly to
|
||
|
|
the behavior of the implementation. For examples, if a thread executes while
|
||
|
|
holding counts on a semaphore, or if a thread exits without call <code>sem_destroy()</code>
|
||
|
|
then. Or what if the thread with the boosted priority re-prioritizes itself?
|
||
|
|
The NuttX implement of priority inheritance attempts to handle all of these
|
||
|
|
types of corner cases, but it is very likely that some are missed.
|
||
|
|
The worst case result is that memory could by stranded within the priority
|
||
|
|
inheritance logic.

<b>Description:</b> This function establishes a connection between
|

|
|
named semaphores and a task. Following a call to sem_open() with
|
||
|
|
the semaphore name, the task may reference the semaphore associated

|
with name using the address returned by this call. The semaphore
|
||
|
|
may be used in subsequent calls to sem_wait(), sem_trywait(),

|
is closed by a successful call to sem_close().
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If a task makes multiple calls to sem_open() with the same name,

|
then the same semaphore address is returned (provided there have
|
||
|
|
been no calls to sem_unlink()).
|

<p>
|

|
<b>Input Parameters:</b>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>name</i>. Semaphore name
|
||
|
|
<li><i>oflag</i>. Semaphore creation options. This may one of
|
||
|
|
the following bit settings:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>oflag</i> = 0: Connect to the semaphore only if it already
|
||
|
|
exists.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>oflag</i> = O_CREAT: Connect to the semaphore if it exists,
|
||
|
|
otherwise create the semaphore.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>oflag</i> = O_CREAT with O_EXCL (O_CREAT|O_EXCL): Create
|
||
|
|
a new semaphore unless one of this name already exists.
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>... Optional parameters.
|
||
|
|
NOTE: When the O_CREAT flag is specified, POSIX requires that a third
|
||
|
|
and fourth parameter be supplied:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>mode</i>. The mode parameter is of type mode_t.
|
||
|
|
This parameter is required but not used in the present
|
||
|
|
implementation.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>value</i>. The value parameter is type unsigned int. The semaphore
|
||
|
|
is created with an initial value of <i>value</i>. Valid initial values for
|
||
|
|
semaphores must be less than or equal to <i>SEM_VALUE_MAX</i> (defined in

<b>Description:</b> This function is called to indicate that the

The sem_close() deallocates any system resources allocated by

If the semaphore has not been removed with a call to sem_unlink(),

<b>Description:</b>

|
This function will lock the semaphore referenced by sem as in the <code>sem_wait()</code> function.

The timeout will expire when the absolute time specified by <code>abstime</code> passes, as measured by the clock on which timeouts are based (that is, when the value of that clock equals or exceeds abstime), or if the absolute time specified by abstime has already been passed at the time of the call.

This function attempts to lock the semaphore referenced by <code>sem</code>.

|
<b>Description:</b> When a task has finished with a semaphore,
|

|
|
it will call sem_post(). This function unlocks the semaphore referenced
|
||
|
|
by <i>sem</i> by performing the semaphore unlock operation.
|

|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If the semaphore value resulting from this operation is positive, then
|

|
no tasks were blocked waiting for the semaphore to become unlocked;
|
||
|
|
The semaphore value is simply incremented.
|

|
|
<p>
|

|
|
If the value of the semaphore resulting from this operation is zero, then
|
||
|
|
on of the tasks blocked waiting for the semaphore will be allowed to

|
||
|
|
<b>NOTE</b>: <i>sem_post()</i> may be called from an interrupt handler.

<b>Description:</b> This function updates the location referenced

by sem without effecting the state of the semaphore. The updated

|
value of the semaphore when it is returned to the calling task.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If sem is locked, the value return by sem_getvalue() will either
|

be zero or a negative number whose absolute value represents the

number of tasks waiting for the semaphore.

NuttX provides a general watchdog timer facility.
|
||
|
|
This facility allows the NuttX user to specify a watchdog timer function
|
||
|
|
that will run after a specified delay.
|
||
|
|
The watchdog timer function will run in the context of the timer interrupt handler.
|
||
|
|
Because of this, a limited number of NuttX interfaces are available to he watchdog timer function.
|
||
|
|
However, the watchdog timer function may use <code>mq_send()</code>, <code>sigqueue()</code>,
|
||
|
|
or <code>kill()</code> to communicate with NuttX tasks.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
The <code>timer_create()</code> function creates per-thread timer using the specified
|
||
|
|
clock, <code>clock_id</code>, as the timing base.
|
||
|
|
The <code>timer_create()</code> function returns, in
|
||
|
|
the location referenced by <code>timerid</code>, a timer ID of type timer_t used to identify
|
||
|
|
the timer in timer requests.
|
||
|
|
This timer ID is unique until the timer is deleted.
|
||
|
|
The particular clock, <code>clock_id</code>, is defined in <code><time.h></code>.
|
||
|
|
The timer whose ID is returned will be in a disarmed state upon return from
|
||
|
|
<code>timer_create()</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The <code>evp</code> argument, if non-NULL, points to a <code>sigevent</code> structure.
|
||
|
|
This structure is allocated by the called and defines the asynchronous notification to occur.
|
||
|
|
If the <code>evp</code> argument is NULL, the effect is as if the <code>evp</code> argument pointed to
|
||
|
|
a <code>sigevent</code> structure with the <code>sigev_notify</code> member having the value <code>SIGEV_SIGNAL</code>,
|
||
|
|
the <code>sigev_signo</code> having a default signal number, and the <code>sigev_value</code> member
|
||
|
|
having the value of the timer ID.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Each implementation defines a set of clocks that can be used as timing bases
|
||
|
|
for per-thread timers. All implementations shall support a <code>clock_id</code> of
|
||
|
|
<code>CLOCK_REALTIME</code>.

If the call succeeds, <code>timer_create()</code> will return 0 (<code>OK</code>) and update the
|

|
|
location referenced by <code>timerid</code> to a <code>timer_t</code>, which can be passed to the
|
||
|
|
other per-thread timer calls. If an error occurs, the function will return
|

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
The <code>timer_settime()</code> function sets the time until the next expiration of the
|
||
|
|
timer specified by <code>timerid</code> from the <code>it_value</code> member of the value argument
|
||
|
|
and arm the timer if the <code>it_value</code> member of value is non-zero. If the
|
||
|
|
specified timer was already armed when <code>timer_settime()</code> is called, this call
|
||
|
|
will reset the time until next expiration to the value specified. If the
|
||
|
|
<code>it_value</code> member of value is zero, the timer will be disarmed. The effect
|
||
|
|
of disarming or resetting a timer with pending expiration notifications is
|
||
|
|
unspecified.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If the flag <code>TIMER_ABSTIME</code> is not set in the argument flags, <code>timer_settime()</code>
|
||
|
|
will behave as if the time until next expiration is set to be equal to the
|
||
|
|
interval specified by the <code>it_value</code> member of value. That is, the timer will
|
||
|
|
expire in <code>it_value</code> nanoseconds from when the call is made. If the flag
|
||
|
|
<code>TIMER_ABSTIME</code> is set in the argument flags, <code>timer_settime()</code> will behave as
|
||
|
|
if the time until next expiration is set to be equal to the difference between
|
||
|
|
the absolute time specified by the <code>it_value</code> member of value and the current
|
||
|
|
value of the clock associated with <code>timerid</code>. That is, the timer will expire
|
||
|
|
when the clock reaches the value specified by the <code>it_value</code> member of value.
|
||
|
|
If the specified time has already passed, the function will succeed and the
|
||
|
|
expiration notification will be made.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The reload value of the timer will be set to the value specified by the
|
||
|
|
<code>it_interval</code> member of value. When a timer is armed with a non-zero
|
||
|
|
<code>it_interval</code>, a periodic (or repetitive) timer is specified.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Time values that are between two consecutive non-negative integer multiples
|
||
|
|
of the resolution of the specified timer will be rounded up to the larger
|
||
|
|
multiple of the resolution. Quantization error will not cause the timer to
|
||
|
|
expire earlier than the rounded time value.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If the argument <code>ovalue</code> is not NULL, the t<code>imer_settime()</code> function will store,
|
||
|
|
in the location referenced by <code>ovalue</code>, a value representing the previous
|
||
|
|
amount of time before the timer would have expired, or zero if the timer was
|
||
|
|
disarmed, together with the previous timer reload value. Timers will not
|
||
|
|
expire before their scheduled time.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
Only a single signal will be queued to the process for a given timer at any
|
||
|
|
point in time. When a timer for which a signal is still pending expires, no
|
||
|
|
signal will be queued, and a timer overrun will occur. When a timer
|
||
|
|
expiration signal is delivered to or accepted by a process, if the
|
||
|
|
implementation supports the <i>Realtime Signals Extension</i>, the
|
||
|
|
<code>timer_getoverrun()</code> function will return the timer expiration overrun count for
|
||
|
|
the specified timer. The overrun count returned contains the number of extra
|
||
|
|
timer expirations that occurred between the time the signal was generated
|
||
|
|
(queued) and when it was delivered or accepted, up to but not including an
|
||
|
|
implementation-defined maximum of <code>DELAYTIMER_MAX</code>. If the number of such
|
||
|
|
extra expirations is greater than or equal to <code>DELAYTIMER_MAX</code>, then the
|
||
|
|
overrun count will be set to <code>DELAYTIMER_MAX</code>. The value returned by
|
||
|
|
<code>timer_getoverrun()</code> will apply to the most recent expiration signal delivery
|
||
|
|
or acceptance for the timer. If no expiration signal has been delivered
|
||
|
|
for the timer, or if the <i>Realtime Signals Extension</i> is not supported, the
|
||
|
|
return value of <code>timer_getoverrun()</code> is unspecified.

NuttX provides signal interfaces for tasks. Signals are used to
|
||
|
|
alter the flow control of tasks by communicating asynchronous events
|
||
|
|
within or between task contexts.
|
||
|
|
Any task or interrupt handler can post (or send) a signal to a particular task.
|
||
|
|
The task being signaled will execute task-specified signal handler
|
||
|
|
function the next time that the task has priority.
|
||
|
|
The signal handler is a user-supplied function that is bound to
|
||
|
|
a specific signal and performs whatever actions are necessary
|
||
|
|
whenever the signal is received.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There are no predefined actions for any signal.
|
||
|
|
The default action for all signals (i.e., when no signal handler has
|
||
|
|
been supplied by the user) is to ignore the signal.
|
||
|
|
In this sense, all NuttX are <i>real time</i> signals.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Tasks may also suspend themselves and wait until a signal is received.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|

<b>Description:</b> This function allows the calling task to

||
|
|
examine and/or specify the action to be associated with a specific
|
||
|
|
signal.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The structure sigaction, used to describe an action to be taken, is defined
|
||
|
|
to include the following members:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><i>sa_u.sa_handler</i>. A pointer to a signal-catching function.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>sa_u.sa_sigaction</i>. An alternative form for the signal catching
|
||
|
|
function.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>sa_mask</i>. Additional set of signals to be blocked during
|
||
|
|
execution of the signal-catching function.
|
||
|
|
<li><i>sa_flags</i>: Special flags to affect behavior of a signal.
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If the argument act is not NULL, it points to a structure specifying the
|
||
|
|
action to be associated with the specified signal. If the argument oact
|
||
|
|
is not NULL, the action previously associated with the signal is stored
|
||
|
|
in the location pointed to by the argument oact. If the argument act is
|
||
|
|
NULL, signal handling is unchanged by this function call; thus, the call
|
||
|
|
can be used to inquire about the current handling of a given signal.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
When a signal is caught by a signal-catching function installed by the
|
||
|
|
sigaction() function, a new signal mask is calculated and installed for
|
||
|
|
the duration of the signal-catching function. This mask is formed by taking
|
||
|
|
the union of the current signal mask and the value of the sa_mask for the
|
||
|
|
signal being delivered, and then including the signal being delivered. If
|
||
|
|
and when the signal handler returns, the original signal mask is restored.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Signal catching functions execute in the same address environment as the
|
||
|
|
task that called sigaction() to install the signal-catching function.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Once an action is installed for a specific signal, it remains installed
|
||
|
|
until another action is explicitly requested by another call to
|
||
|
|
sigaction().

<b>Description:</b> This function allows the calling task to
|

|
|
examine and/or change its signal mask. If the set is not NULL,
|
||
|
|
then it points to a set of signals to be used to change the currently

If there are any pending unblocked signals after the call to sigprocmask(),

|
those signals will be delivered before sigprocmask() returns.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|

If sigprocmask() fails, the signal mask of the task is not changed.

pointed to by the <i>set</i> input parameter.
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|

<b>Description:</b> This function stores the returns the set of

<p>
|

If the task receiving a signal has the signal blocked via its

sigprocmask, the signal will pend until it is unmasked. Only one pending

|
|
signal (for a given signo) is retained by the system. This is consistent
|

|
|
with POSIX which states: "If a subsequent occurrence of a pending

|
<b>Description:</b> The sigsuspend() function replaces the signal mask

the task until delivery of a signal to the task.

If the effect of the set argument is to unblock a pending signal, then

no wait is performed.

<p>
|
||
|
|
The original signal mask is restored when sigsuspend() returns.

Waiting for an empty signal set stops a task without freeing any

NuttX does not support <i>processes</i> in the way that, say, Linux does.
|

|
|
NuttX only supports simple threads or tasks running within the same address space.
|
||
|
|
For the most part, threads and tasks are interchangeable and differ primarily
|
||
|
|
only in such things as the inheritance of file descriptors.
|
||
|
|
Basically, threads are initialized and uninitialized differently and share a
|
||
|
|
few more resources than tasks.
|

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
The mutex object referenced by mutex is locked by calling <code>pthread_mutex_lock()</code>.
|
||
|
|
If the mutex is already locked, the calling thread blocks until the mutex
|
||
|
|
becomes available. This operation returns with the mutex object referenced
|
||
|
|
by mutex in the locked state with the calling thread as its owner.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If the mutex type is <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL</code>, deadlock detection is not provided.
|
||
|
|
Attempting to re-lock the mutex causes deadlock. If a thread attempts to unlock
|
||
|
|
a mutex that it has not locked or a mutex which is unlocked, undefined behavior
|
||
|
|
results.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
In NuttX, <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL</code> is not implemented. Rather, the behavior described
|
||
|
|
for <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK</code> is the <i>normal</i> behavior.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If the mutex type is <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK</code>, then error checking is provided.
|
||
|
|
If a thread attempts to re-lock a mutex that it has already locked, an error
|
||
|
|
will be returned. If a thread attempts to unlock a mutex that it has not
|
||
|
|
locked or a mutex which is unlocked, an error will be returned.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If the mutex type is <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE</code>, then the mutex maintains the concept
|
||
|
|
of a lock count. When a thread successfully acquires a mutex for the first time,
|
||
|
|
the lock count is set to one. Every time a thread re-locks this mutex, the lock count
|
||
|
|
is incremented by one. Each time the thread unlocks the mutex, the lock count is
|
||
|
|
decremented by one. When the lock count reaches zero, the mutex becomes available
|
||
|
|
for other threads to acquire. If a thread attempts to unlock a mutex that it has
|
||
|
|
not locked or a mutex which is unlocked, an error will be returned.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If a signal is delivered to a thread waiting for a mutex, upon return from
|
||
|
|
the signal handler the thread resumes waiting for the mutex as if it was
|
||
|
|
not interrupted.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The <code>pthread_mutex_unlock()</code> function releases the mutex object referenced
|
||
|
|
by mutex. The manner in which a mutex is released is dependent upon the
|
||
|
|
mutex's type attribute. If there are threads blocked on the mutex object
|
||
|
|
referenced by mutex when <code>pthread_mutex_unlock()</code> is called, resulting in
|
||
|
|
the mutex becoming available, the scheduling policy is used to determine
|
||
|
|
which thread shall acquire the mutex. (In the case of <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE</code>
|
||
|
|
mutexes, the mutex becomes available when the count reaches zero and the
|
||
|
|
calling thread no longer has any locks on this mutex).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If a signal is delivered to a thread waiting for a mutex, upon return from
|
||
|
|
the signal handler the thread resumes waiting for the mutex as if it was
|
||
|
|
not interrupted.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
The process-shared attribute is set to <code>PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED</code> to permit
|
||
|
|
a barrier to be operated upon by any thread that has access to the memory where the
|
||
|
|
barrier is allocated.
|
||
|
|
If the process-shared attribute is <code>PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE</code>, the barrier can
|
||
|
|
only be operated upon by threads created within the same process as the thread that
|
||
|
|
initialized the barrier.
|
||
|
|
If threads of different processes attempt to operate on such a barrier, the behavior is undefined.
|
||
|
|
The default value of the attribute is <code>PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE</code>.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
The <code>pthread_barrier_wait()</code> function synchronizes participating
|
||
|
|
threads at the barrier referenced by <code>barrier</code>.
|
||
|
|
The calling thread is blocked until the required number of threads have called
|
||
|
|
<code>pthread_barrier_wait()</code> specifying the same <code>barrier</code>.
|
||
|
|
When the required number of threads have called <code>pthread_barrier_wait()</code>
|
||
|
|
specifying the <code>barrier</code>, the constant <code>PTHREAD_BARRIER_SERIAL_THREAD</code>
|
||
|
|
will be returned to one unspecified thread and zero will be returned to each of
|
||
|
|
the remaining threads.
|
||
|
|
At this point, the barrier will be reset to the state it had as a result of the most
|
||
|
|
recent <code>pthread_barrier_init()</code> function that referenced it.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The constant <code>PTHREAD_BARRIER_SERIAL_THREAD</code> is defined in
|
||
|
|
<code>pthread.h</code> and its value must be distinct from any other value
|
||
|
|
returned by <code>pthread_barrier_wait()</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The results are undefined if this function is called with an uninitialized barrier.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If a signal is delivered to a thread blocked on a barrier, upon return from the
|
||
|
|
signal handler the thread will resume waiting at the barrier if the barrier wait
|
||
|
|
has not completed.
|
||
|
|
Otherwise, the thread will continue as normal from the completed barrier wait.
|
||
|
|
Until the thread in the signal handler returns from it, it is unspecified whether
|
||
|
|
other threads may proceed past the barrier once they have all reached it.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
A thread that has blocked on a barrier will not prevent any unblocked thread that
|
||
|
|
is eligible to use the same processing resources from eventually making forward
|
||
|
|
progress in its execution.
|
||
|
|
Eligibility for processing resources will be determined by the scheduling policy.

<p><b>Overview</b>.
|
||
|
|
NuttX supports environment variables that can be used to control the behavior of programs.
|
||
|
|
In the spirit of NuttX the environment variable behavior attempts to emulate the behavior of
|
||
|
|
environment variables in the multi-processing OS:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><b>Task environments</b>.
|
||
|
|
When a new task is created using <a href="#taskcreate">task_create</a>, the environment
|
||
|
|
of the child task is an inherited, exact copy of the environment of the parent.
|
||
|
|
However, after child task has been created, subsequent operations by the child task on
|
||
|
|
its environment does not alter the environment of the parent.
|
||
|
|
No do operations by the parent effect the child's environment.
|
||
|
|
The environments start identical but are independent and may diverge.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><b>Thread environments</b>.
|
||
|
|
When a pthread is created using <a href="#pthreadcreate">pthread_create</a>, the child
|
||
|
|
thread also inherits that environment of the parent.
|
||
|
|
However, the child does not receive a copy of the environment but, rather, shares the same
|
||
|
|
environment.
|
||
|
|
Changes to the environment are visible to all threads with the same parentage.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Programming Interfaces</b>.
|
||
|
|
The following environment variable programming interfaces are provided by Nuttx and are
|
||
|
|
described in detail in the following paragraphs.

<h3><a name="FileSystemOverview">2.11.1 NuttX File System Overview</a></h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Overview</b>.
|
||
|
|
NuttX includes an optional, scalable file system.
|
||
|
|
This file-system may be omitted altogether; NuttX does not depend on the presence
|
||
|
|
of any file system.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Pseudo Root File System</b>.
|
||
|
|
Or, a simple <i>in-memory</i>, <i>pseudo</i> file system can be enabled.
|
||
|
|
This simple file system can be enabled setting the CONFIG_NFILE_DESCRIPTORS
|
||
|
|
option to a non-zero value.
|
||
|
|
This is an <i>in-memory</i> file system because it does not require any
|
||
|
|
storage medium or block driver support.
|
||
|
|
Rather, file system contents are generated on-the-fly as referenced via
|
||
|
|
standard file system operations (open, close, read, write, etc.).
|
||
|
|
In this sense, the file system is <i>pseudo</i> file system (in the
|
||
|
|
same sense that the Linux <code>/proc</code> file system is also
|
||
|
|
referred to as a pseudo file system).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Any user supplied data or logic can be accessed via the pseudo-file system.
|
||
|
|
Built in support is provided for character and block
|
||
|
|
<a href="NuttxPortingGuide.html#DeviceDrivers">driver</a> <i>nodes</i> in the any
|
||
|
|
pseudo file system directory.
|
||
|
|
(By convention, however, all driver nodes should be in the <code>/dev</code>
|
||
|
|
pseudo file system directory).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Mounted File Systems</b>
|
||
|
|
The simple in-memory file system can be extended my mounting block
|
||
|
|
devices that provide access to true file systems backed up via some
|
||
|
|
mass storage device.
|
||
|
|
NuttX supports the standard <code>mount()</code> command that allows
|
||
|
|
a block driver to be bound to a mount-point within the pseudo file system
|
||
|
|
and to a a file system.
|
||
|
|
At present, NuttX supports only the VFAT file system.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Comparison to Linux</b>
|
||
|
|
From a programming perspective, the NuttX file system appears very similar
|
||
|
|
to a Linux file system.
|
||
|
|
However, there is a fundamental difference:
|
||
|
|
The NuttX root file system is a pseudo file system and true file systems may be
|
||
|
|
mounted in the pseudo file system.
|
||
|
|
In the typical Linux installation by comparison, the Linux root file system
|
||
|
|
is a true file system and pseudo file systems may be mounted in the true,
|
||
|
|
root file system.
|
||
|
|
The approach selected by NuttX is intended to support greater scalability
|
||
|
|
from the very tiny platform to the moderate platform.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><b>File System Interfaces</b>.
|
||
|
|
The NuttX file system simply supports a set of standard, file system APIs
|
||
|
|
(<code>open()</code>, <code>close()</code>, <code>read()</code>, <code>write</code>, etc.)
|
||
|
|
and a registration mechanism that allows devices drivers to a associated with <i>nodes</i>
|
||
|
|
in a file-system-like name space.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
<code>select()</code> allows a program to monitor multiple file descriptors, waiting
|
||
|
|
until one or more of the file descriptors become "ready" for some class
|
||
|
|
of I/O operation (e.g., input possible). A file descriptor is
|
||
|
|
considered ready if it is possible to perform the corresponding I/O
|
||
|
|
operation (e.g., read(2)) without blocking.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<b>NOTE:</b> <a href="#poll"><code>poll()</code></a> is the fundamental API for performing such monitoring
|
||
|
|
operation under NuttX. <code>select()</code> is provided for compatibility and
|
||
|
|
is simply a layer of added logic on top of <code>poll()</code>. As such, <code>select()</code>
|
||
|
|
is more wasteful of resources and <a href="#poll"><code>poll()</code></a> is the recommended API to be
|
||
|
|
used.
|
||
|
|

|
<b>Input Parameters:</b>

|
<li><code>nfds</code>. the maximum file descriptor number (+1) of any descriptor in any of the three sets.</li>

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<code>mkfifo()</code> makes a FIFO device driver file with name <code>pathname</code>.
|
||
|
|
Unlike Linux, a NuttX FIFO is not a special file type but simply a device driver instance.
|
||
|
|
<code>mode</code> specifies the FIFO's permissions (but is ignored in the current implementation).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Once the FIFO has been created by <code>mkfifo()</code>, any thread can open it for
|
||
|
|
reading or writing, in the same way as an ordinary file.
|
||
|
|
However, it must have been opened from both reading and writing before input or output can be performed.
|
||
|
|
This FIFO implementation will block all attempts to open a FIFO read-only until at least one thread has opened the FIFO for writing.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If all threads that write to the FIFO have closed, subsequent calls to <code>read()</code> on the FIFO will return 0 (end-of-file).

<h3><a name="mmapxip">2.11.9 <code>mmap()</code> and eXecute In Place (XIP)</a></h3>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
NuttX operates in a flat open address space and is focused on MCUs that do
|
||
|
|
support Memory Management Units (MMUs). Therefore, NuttX generally does not
|
||
|
|
require <code>mmap()</code> functionality and the MCUs generally cannot support true
|
||
|
|
memory-mapped files.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
However, memory mapping of files is the mechanism used by NXFLAT, the NuttX
|
||
|
|
tiny binary format, to get files into memory in order to execute them.
|
||
|
|
<code>mmap()</code> support is therefore required to support NXFLAT.
|
||
|
|
There are two conditions where <code>mmap()</code> can be supported:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<code>mmap()</code> can be used to support <i>eXecute In Place</i> (XIP) on random access media
|
||
|
|
under the following very restrictive conditions:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol type="a">
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The file-system supports the <code>FIOC_MMAP</code> ioctl command.
|
||
|
|
Any file system that maps files contiguously on the media should support this
|
||
|
|
<code>ioctl</code> command.
|
||
|
|
By comparison, most file system scatter files over the media in non-contiguous
|
||
|
|
sectors. As of this writing, ROMFS is the only file system that meets this requirement.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The underlying block driver supports the <code>BIOC_XIPBASE</code> <code>ioctl</code> command
|
||
|
|
that maps the underlying media to a randomly accessible address.
|
||
|
|
At present, only the RAM/ROM disk driver does this.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Some limitations of this approach are as follows:
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<ol type="a">
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Since no real mapping occurs, all of the file contents are "mapped" into memory.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
All mapped files are read-only.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There are no access privileges.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
|

|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If <code>CONFIG_FS_RAMMAP</code> is defined in the configuration, then <code>mmap()</code> will
|
||
|
|
support simulation of memory mapped files by copying files whole into RAM.
|
||
|
|
These copied files have some of the properties of standard memory mapped files.
|
||
|
|
There are many, many exceptions exceptions, however.
|
||
|
|
Some of these include:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol type="a">
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The goal is to have a single region of memory that represents a single
|
||
|
|
file and can be shared by many threads. That is, given a filename a
|
||
|
|
thread should be able to open the file, get a file descriptor, and
|
||
|
|
call <code>mmap()</code> to get a memory region. Different file descriptors opened
|
||
|
|
with the same file path should get the same memory region when mapped.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The limitation in the current design is that there is insufficient
|
||
|
|
knowledge to know that these different file descriptors correspond to
|
||
|
|
the same file. So, for the time being, a new memory region is created
|
||
|
|
each time that <code>rammmap()</code> is called. Not very useful!
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The entire mapped portion of the file must be present in memory.
|
||
|
|
Since it is assumed the the MCU does not have an MMU, on-demanding
|
||
|
|
paging in of file blocks cannot be supported. Since the while mapped
|
||
|
|
portion of the file must be present in memory, there are limitations
|
||
|
|
in the size of files that may be memory mapped (especially on MCUs
|
||
|
|
with no significant RAM resources).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
All mapped files are read-only. You can write to the in-memory image,
|
||
|
|
but the file contents will not change.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There are no access privileges.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Since there are no processes in NuttX, all <code>mmap()</code> and <code>munmap()</code>
|
||
|
|
operations have immediate, global effects. Under Linux, for example,
|
||
|
|
<code>munmap()</code> would eliminate only the mapping with a process; the mappings
|
||
|
|
to the same file in other processes would not be effected.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Like true mapped file, the region will persist after closing the file
|
||
|
|
descriptor. However, at present, these ram copied file regions are
|
||
|
|
<i>not</i> automatically "unmapped" (i.e., freed) when a thread is terminated.
|
||
|
|
This is primarily because it is not possible to know how many users
|
||
|
|
of the mapped region there are and, therefore, when would be the
|
||
|
|
appropriate time to free the region (other than when munmap is called).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
NOTE: Note, if the design limitation of a) were solved, then it would be
|
||
|
|
easy to solve exception d) as well.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
<code>connect()</code> connects the socket referred to by the file descriptor
|
||
|
|
<code>sockfd</code> to the address specified by <code>addr</code>.
|
||
|
|
The <code>addrlen</code> argument specifies the size of <code>addr</code>.
|
||
|
|
The format of the address in <code>addr</code> is determined by the address space
|
||
|
|
of the socket sockfd.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the socket sockfd is of type SOCK_DGRAM then <code>addr</code> is the address
|
||
|
|
to which datagrams are sent by default, and the only address from which
|
||
|
|
datagrams are received. If the socket is of type SOCK_STREAM or
|
||
|
|
SOCK_SEQPACKET, this call attempts to make a connection to the socket
|
||
|
|
that is bound to the address specified by <code>addr</code>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Generally, connection-based protocol sockets may successfully <code>connect()</code>
|
||
|
|
only once; connectionless protocol sockets may use <code>connect()</code> multiple
|
||
|
|
times to change their association. Connectionless sockets may dissolve
|
||
|
|
the association by connecting to an address with the sa_family member of
|
||
|
|
sockaddr set to AF_UNSPEC.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
The <code>accept()</code> function is used with connection-based socket types
|
||
|
|
(<code>SOCK_STREAM</code>, <code>SOCK_SEQPACKET</code> and <code>SOCK_RDM</code>).
|
||
|
|
It extracts the first connection request on the queue of pending connections,
|
||
|
|
creates a new connected socket with most of the same properties as <code>sockfd</code>,
|
||
|
|
and allocates a new socket descriptor for the socket, which is returned. The
|
||
|
|
newly created socket is no longer in the listening state. The original
|
||
|
|
socket <code>sockfd</code> is unaffected by this call. Per file descriptor flags
|
||
|
|
are not inherited across an accept.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The <code>sockfd</code> argument is a socket descriptor that has been created with
|
||
|
|
<code>socket()</code>, bound to a local address with <code>bind()</code>, and is listening for
|
||
|
|
connections after a call to <code>listen()</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
On return, the <code>addr</code> structure is filled in with the address of the
|
||
|
|
connecting entity. The <code>addrlen</code> argument initially contains the size
|
||
|
|
of the structure pointed to by <code>addr</code>; on return it will contain the
|
||
|
|
actual length of the address returned.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If no pending connections are present on the queue, and the socket is
|
||
|
|
not marked as non-blocking, accept blocks the caller until a connection
|
||
|
|
is present. If the socket is marked non-blocking and no pending
|
||
|
|
connections are present on the queue, accept returns <code>EAGAIN</code>.
|
||
|
|

|
<b>Input Parameters:</b>
|

|
|
that is a descriptor for the accepted socket.

An invalid descriptor was specified.

Connection reset by peer.
|
||

<li><code>EDESTADDRREQ</code>.
|

|
|
The socket is not connection-mode, and no peer address is set.

|
An invalid user space address was specified for a parameter.

|
Invalid argument passed.

|
|
The connection-mode socket was connected already but a recipient

|
|
specification is ignored.)
|
||
|
|
<li><code>EMSGSIZE</code>.
|
||
|
|
The socket type requires that message be sent atomically, and the
|
||
|
|
size of the message to be sent made this impossible.
|
||
|
|
<li><code>ENOBUFS</code>.
|
||
|
|
The output queue for a network interface was full. This generally
|
||
|
|
indicates that the interface has stopped sending, but may be
|
||
|
|
caused by transient congestion.
|
||
|
|
<li><code>ENOMEM</code>.
|
||
|
|
No memory available.
|
||
|
|
<li><code>ENOTCONN</code>.
|
||
|
|
The socket is not connected, and no target has been given.

|
The argument s is not a socket.

Some bit in the flags argument is inappropriate for the socket type.

<b>Description:</b>
|
||
|
|
<code>recvfrom()</code> receives messages from a socket, and may be used to receive
|
||
|
|
data on a socket whether or not it is connection-oriented.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If <code>from</code> is not NULL, and the underlying protocol provides the source
|
||
|
|
address, this source address is filled in. The argument <code>fromlen</code>
|
||
|
|
initialized to the size of the buffer associated with <code>from</code>, and modified
|
||
|
|
on return to indicate the actual size of the address stored there.

Many of the types used to communicate with NuttX are simple
|

|
|
scalar types. These types are used to provide architecture independence
|
||
|
|
of the OS from the application. The scalar types used at the NuttX
|
||
|
|
interface include:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>pid_t
|
||
|
|
<li>size_t
|

|
Several of the types used to interface with NuttX are
|
||
|
|
structures that are intended to be hidden from the application.
|
||
|
|
From the standpoint of the application, these structures (and
|
||
|
|
structure pointers) should be treated as simple handles to reference
|
||
|
|
OS resources. These hidden structures include:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>_TCB
|
||
|
|
<li>mqd_t
|
||
|
|
<li>sem_t
|
||
|
|
<li>WDOG_ID
|
||
|
|
<li>pthread_key_t
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
In order to maintain portability, applications should not reference
|
||
|
|
specific elements within these hidden structures. These hidden
|
||
|
|
structures will not be described further in this user's manual.

|
|
<b>Description</b>:
|
||
|
|
<code>get_errno_ptr()</code> returns a pointer to the thread-specific <code>errno</code> value.
|
||
|
|
Note that the symbol <code>errno</code> is defined to be <code>get_errno_ptr()</code> so that the usual
|
||
|
|
access by referencing the symbol <code>errno</code> will work as expected.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There is a unique, private <code>errno</code> value for each NuttX task.
|
||
|
|
However, the implementation of <code>errno</code> differs somewhat from the use of
|
||
|
|
<code>errno</code> in most multi-threaded process environments:
|
||
|
|
In NuttX, each pthread will also have its own private copy of <code>errno</code> and the
|
||
|
|
<code>errno</code> will not be shared between pthreads.
|
||
|
|
This is, perhaps, non-standard but promotes better thread independence.

<H3>3.4.9 Watchdog Data Types</H3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
When a watchdog expires, the callback function with this
|
||
|
|
type is called:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
typedef void (*wdentry_t)(int argc, ...);
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Where argc is the number of uint32_t type arguments that follow.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
The arguments are passed as uint32_t values.
|
||
|
|
For systems where the sizeof(pointer) < sizeof(uint32_t), the
|
||
|
|
following union defines the alignment of the pointer within the
|
||
|
|
uint32_t. For example, the SDCC MCS51 general pointer is
|
||
|
|
24-bits, but uint32_t is 32-bits (of course).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
union wdparm_u
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
void *pvarg;
|
||
|
|
uint32_t *dwarg;
|
||
|
|
};
|
||
|
|
typedef union wdparm_u wdparm_t;
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
For most 32-bit systems, pointers and uint32_t are the same size
|
||
|
|
For systems where sizeof(pointer) > sizeof(uint32_t), we will
|
||
|
|
have to do some redesign.
|
||
|
|
