Detailed Description

This group contains the Scheduler Handler implementation.

This handler encapsulates functionality related to managing sets of threads that are ready for execution.

Schedulers are used by the system to manage sets of threads that are ready for execution. A scheduler consists of

a scheduler algorithm implementation,
a scheduler index and an associated name, and
a set of processors owned by the scheduler (may be empty, but never overlaps with a set owned by another scheduler).

Each thread uses exactly one scheduler as its home scheduler. Threads may temporarily use another scheduler due to actions of locking protocols.

All properties of a scheduler can be configured and controlled by the user. Some properties are fixed at link time (defined by application configuration options), other properties can be changed at runtime through directive calls.

The scheduler index, name, and initial processor set are defined for a particular application by the application configuration. The schedulers are registered in the _Scheduler_Table which has _Scheduler_Count entries.

Macro Definition Documentation

◆ _Scheduler_Count

#define _Scheduler_Count ( (size_t) 1 )

This constant contains the count of configured schedulers.

In SMP configurations, the constant is defined by <rtems/confdefs.h> through the count of entries of the CONFIGURE_SCHEDULER_TABLE_ENTRIES application configuration option.

In uniprocessor configurations, this is a compile time constant set to one. This is important so that the compiler can optimize some loops away.

See also: _Scheduler_Table.

◆ SCHEDULER_DEFAULT_SET_AFFINITY_OPERATION

#define SCHEDULER_DEFAULT_SET_AFFINITY_OPERATION

This define provides the default implementation for the SMP-specific set affinity operation.

The default implementation _Scheduler_default_Set_affinity() is intended for uniprocessor schedulers and SMP schedulers which only support an affinity to all online processors.

If SMP support is disabled, the define evaluates to nothing.

◆ SCHEDULER_DEFAULT_SMP_OPERATIONS

#define SCHEDULER_DEFAULT_SMP_OPERATIONS

This define provides a set of default implementations for SMP-specific scheduler operations.

The default implementations are intended for uniprocessor schedulers. SMP schedulers shall implement the operations properly.

If SMP support is disabled, the define evaluates to nothing.

If SMP support is enabled and the system has exactly one processor, then it may use an uniprocessor scheduler. The ask for help, reconsider help request, and withdraw node operations are NULL, since they are only used if a thread has at least one helping scheduler node. At least two schedulers are required to get a helping node and each scheduler involved must own at least one processor. This is not possible on a system with exactly one processor. The processor add operation is NULL, since there is no other processor to add. The processor remove operation is NULL, since the one and only processor cannot be removed.
