Subject: [PATCH ] POSIX clocks & timers take 2
Date: Wed, 16 Oct 2002 02:55:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DAD3779.9350A2F9@mvista.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1061 bytes --]


This, patch implements the POSIX clocks and timers
functions.  The two standard clocks are
defined(CLOCK_REALTIME & CLOCK_MONOTONIC). 

With this version, nano_sleep() is rolled into
clock_nanosleep().  Also a bug fix in clock_nanosleep().

kernel/timer.c is modified to remove the timer_t typedef
which conflicts with the POSIX standard definition for this
type.  

The patch introduces a new kernel source (posix-timers.c)
which contains most of the code.

This implementation defines a timer as a system wide
resource with system wide limits on the number of allocated
timers.  This number can be set at configure time and is
defaulted to 3000.  There
are NO other limits on how many timers a process can have.

Kernel version 2.5.43

Test programs, man pages and readme files are available
on the sourceforge high-res-timers site:

+ * And while were at it, there needs to be a way to set the return code
+ * on the way to do_signal().  It (i.e. do_signal()) saves the regs on 
+ * the callers stack to call the user handler and then the return is

+ * CLOCKs: The POSIX standard calls for a couple of clocks and allows us
+ *	    to implement others.  This structure defines the various
+ *	    clocks and allows the possibility of adding others.	 We
+ *	    provide an interface to add clocks to the table and expect
+ *	    the "arch" code to add at least one clock that is high
+ *	    resolution.	 Here we define the standard CLOCK_REALTIME as a
+ *	    1/HZ resolution clock.
+
+ * CPUTIME & THREAD_CPUTIME: We are not, at this time, definding these
+ *	    two clocks (and the other process related clocks (Std
+ *	    1003.1d-1999).  The way these should be supported, we think,
+ *	    is to use large negative numbers for the two clocks that are
+ *	    pinned to the executing process and to use -pid for clocks
+ *	    pinned to particular pids.	Calls which supported these clock
+ *	    ids would split early in the function.
+ 
+ * RESOLUTION: Clock resolution is used to round up timer and interval
+ *	    times, NOT to report clock times, which are reported with as
+ *	    much resolution as the system can muster.  In some cases this
+ *	    resolution may depend on the underlaying clock hardware and
+ *	    may not be quantifiable until run time, and only then is the
+ *	    necessary code is written.	The standard says we should say
+ *	    something about this issue in the documentation...
+
+ * FUNCTIONS: The CLOCKs structure defines possible functions to handle
+ *	    various clock functions.  For clocks that use the standard
+ *	    system timer code these entries should be NULL.  This will
+ *	    allow dispatch without the overhead of indirect function
+ *	    calls.  CLOCKS that depend on other sources (e.g. WWV or GPS)
+ *	    must supply functions here, even if the function just returns
+ *	    ENOSYS.  The standard POSIX timer management code assumes the
+ *	    following: 1.) The k_itimer struct (sched.h) is used for the
+ *	    timer.  2.) The list, it_lock, it_clock, it_id and it_process
+ *	    fields are not modified by timer code. 
+ *
+ * Permissions: It is assumed that the clock_settime() function defined
+ *	    for each clock will take care of permission checks.	 Some
+ *	    clocks may be set able by any user (i.e. local process
+ *	    clocks) others not.	 Currently the only set able clock we
+ *	    have is CLOCK_REALTIME and its high res counter part, both of
+ *	    which we beg off on and pass to do_sys_settimeofday().
