Detailed Description

Interface for a task switching strategy implementation.

Note

Combines the Strategy and Iterator design patterns.

Strategy: concrete subclasses encapsulate the scheduling policy (round-robin, EDF, rate-monotonic, weighted round-robin, etc.) independently of the kernel.
Iterator: GetFirst() and GetNext() expose a stateful forward-iterator over the runnable task set. The cursor is owned by the concrete implementation and is not exposed directly, iteration is therefore not re-entrant.

Implementation must declare the following compile-time constants for reporting its capabilities to the kernel (place inside EConfig enum):

Example:

enum EConfig
{
    WEIGHT_API               = 0, // (1) if strategy needs Weight API of the kernel task, (0) otherwise (see \a IKernelTask and Weight API functions)
    SLEEP_EVENT_API          = 0, // (1) if strategy needs Sleep API events generated by the kernel, (0) otherwise (see \a ITaskSwitchStrategy::OnTaskSleep, \a ITaskSwitchStrategy::OnTaskWake)
    DEADLINE_MISSED_API      = 0  // (1) if strategy implements OnTaskDeadlineMissed() and can absorb HRT deadline overruns, (0) otherwise (see \a ITaskSwitchStrategy::OnTaskDeadlineMissed)
    PRIORITY_INHERITANCE_API = 0  // (1) if strategy expects OnTaskWeightChange() events to support priority inheritance requests
};

◆ ~ITaskSwitchStrategy()

stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::~ITaskSwitchStrategy ( )

protecteddefault

Destructor.

Note: Protected by design. Prevents unsafe polymorphic delete.

Member Function Documentation

◆ AddTask()

virtual void stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::AddTask ( IKernelTask * task )

pure virtual

Add task.

Note: Kernel tasks are added by the concrete implementation of IKernel.

Parameters

[in] task Pointer to the task to add.

Implemented in stk::SwitchStrategyEDF, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< TStrategyType >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_DEADLINE >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_RATE >, stk::SwitchStrategyRoundRobin, and stk::SwitchStrategySmoothWeightedRoundRobin.

◆ GetFirst()

virtual IKernelTask * stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::GetFirst ( )

pure virtual

Get first task.

Returns: Pointer to the first task in the managed set, or NULL if no tasks have been added.

Implemented in stk::SwitchStrategyEDF, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< TStrategyType >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_DEADLINE >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_RATE >, stk::SwitchStrategyRoundRobin, and stk::SwitchStrategySmoothWeightedRoundRobin.

◆ GetNext()

virtual IKernelTask * stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::GetNext ( )

pure virtual

Advance the internal iterator and return the next runnable task.

Returns: Pointer to the next active task to schedule, or NULL if no runnable tasks are available (in which case the kernel transitions to FSM_STATE_SLEEPING).

Note: Implementations maintain an internal cursor. This method is not re-entrant, concurrent calls from multiple contexts are not supported.

Implemented in stk::SwitchStrategyEDF, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< TStrategyType >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_DEADLINE >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_RATE >, stk::SwitchStrategyRoundRobin, and stk::SwitchStrategySmoothWeightedRoundRobin.

◆ GetSize()

virtual size_t stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::GetSize ( ) const

pure virtual

Get number of tasks currently managed by this strategy.

Returns: Total number of tasks in the set (runnable and idle).

Implemented in stk::SwitchStrategyEDF, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< TStrategyType >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_DEADLINE >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_RATE >, stk::SwitchStrategyRoundRobin, and stk::SwitchStrategySmoothWeightedRoundRobin.

◆ OnTaskDeadlineMissed()

virtual bool stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::OnTaskDeadlineMissed ( IKernelTask * task )

inlinevirtual

Notification that a task has exceeded its HRT deadline; returns whether the strategy can recover without a hard fault.

Parameters

[in] task The task whose deadline was missed. Must not be nullptr.

Returns: true — the strategy has absorbed the overrun (e.g. by escalating its scheduling mode): the kernel must not call HrtHardFailDeadline() for this tick. false — the strategy cannot recover: the kernel must call HrtHardFailDeadline() as normal.

Note: Budget Overrun API. Called by the kernel from UpdateTaskState() within a tick, after GetNext() has already been called for that tick. Only invoked when DEADLINE_MISSED_API == 1 in the concrete strategy's EConfig. Strategies that set DEADLINE_MISSED_API = 0 do not need to implement this method; the kernel will not call it and will proceed directly to HrtHardFailDeadline().; Returning true carries no implicit side-effects on task sleep state or duration counters — normal tick-driven scheduling remains responsible for those. This call only communicates "do not hard-fault this tick."; The base implementation returns false (unrecoverable), which is the correct default for strategies that do not implement overrun recovery.

◆ OnTaskSleep()

virtual void stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::OnTaskSleep ( IKernelTask * task )

pure virtual

Notification that a task has entered sleep/blocked state.

Parameters

[in] task Pointer to the sleeping task,

Note: Sleep API. Implementations shall remove the task from runnable set here.

Implemented in stk::SwitchStrategyEDF, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< TStrategyType >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_DEADLINE >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_RATE >, stk::SwitchStrategyRoundRobin, and stk::SwitchStrategySmoothWeightedRoundRobin.

◆ OnTaskWake()

virtual void stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::OnTaskWake ( IKernelTask * task )

pure virtual

Notification that a task is becoming runnable again.

Parameters

[in] task Pointer to the waking task

Note: Sleep API. Implementations shall re-insert the task into the runnable set here.

Implemented in stk::SwitchStrategyEDF, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< TStrategyType >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_DEADLINE >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_RATE >, stk::SwitchStrategyRoundRobin, and stk::SwitchStrategySmoothWeightedRoundRobin.

◆ OnTaskWeightChange()

virtual void stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::OnTaskWeightChange	(	IKernelTask *	task,
		Weight	old_weight )

inlinevirtual

Notification that a runnable task's scheduling weight has changed.

Parameters

[in]	task	The task whose weight was just updated via SetWeight().
[in]	old_weight	The previous weight of this task (required to remove it from the priority list belonging to that weight).

Note: Called only for tasks that are currently in the runnable set (not sleeping). The strategy must relink the task to reflect its new weight. For strategies with WEIGHT_API = 0 this is a no-op. For SwitchStrategyFixedPriority it moves the task from its old priority-level list to the new one and updates m_ready_bitmap.; Called from within a ScopedCriticalSection.

Reimplemented in stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, and stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >.

◆ RemoveTask()

virtual void stk::ITaskSwitchStrategy::RemoveTask ( IKernelTask * task )

pure virtual

Remove task.

Note: Kernel tasks are removed from the concrete implementation of IKernel.

Parameters

[in] task Pointer to the task to remove.

Implemented in stk::SwitchStrategyEDF, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< MAX_PRIORITIES >, stk::SwitchStrategyFixedPriority< 32 >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< TStrategyType >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_DEADLINE >, stk::SwitchStrategyMonotonic< MSS_TYPE_RATE >, stk::SwitchStrategyRoundRobin, and stk::SwitchStrategySmoothWeightedRoundRobin.
