Timers in Unix/Linux
3 likes3,847 views
The document discusses how timers work in Linux systems. There are two kernel counters that track time - one for seconds and one for microseconds since January 1, 1970. The gettimeofday function returns the current time by reading these counters. There are also per-process timers that track the time each process has spent running. A timer interrupt triggers every 10 milliseconds to increment the jiffies counter and schedule timer bottom half processing, which updates the system clock and process times. Processes can also initialize interval timers using setitimer to generate signals when the timers expire.

Contiki os timer tutorial
Contiki os timer tutorialSalah Amean Contiki os timer is an essential topic in contiki OS. This presentation describes the different types of timers and their API .
It is following the same explanation as contiki OS wiki.
Contiki introduction II-from what to how
Contiki introduction II-from what to howDingxin Xu The document discusses the Contiki operating system framework, including how it uses processes and events for scheduling work, inter-process communication using event posting, and how modules like Rime and the TDMA MAC layer separate protocol logic from header construction and buffer management for flexible networking implementations. Key data structures include a process list and event queue that the kernel uses to schedule work across asynchronous processes.
Ping to Pong
Ping to PongMatt Provost Video games are written as a main loop: process player input, update the state of the game, render a new frame to the screen, repeat. They do this 60 times a second, with millisecond timing. Most monitoring tools are also written as loops: send a probe, wait for the response, update a data store, sleep. Often this is done pretty slowly, maybe once a second! In video games if you can’t update fast enough, you skip the rendering step and the frame rate drops. With monitoring tools if your loop takes to long you also stop logging data as often, and instead of choppy gameplay you get gaps in your graphs, often when you need that data the most!
Let’s use ping as an example and see how we can rewrite its main loop to function more like a video game, keeping a high frame rate.
Concurrency bug identification through kernel panic log (english)
Concurrency bug identification through kernel panic log (english)Sneeker Yeh The document outlines the analysis of a kernel panic log to identify a concurrency bug in a driver. The analysis included: 1) Log analysis found a buggy memory write, 2) Dump file analysis traced execution to this write, 3) Further log analysis found an interrupted context was involved, suggesting a concurrency bug. Tracing ARM instructions in the dump file around the interruption point helped identify that a variable was being incorrectly accessed.
Design pipeline architecture for various stage pipelines
Design pipeline architecture for various stage pipelinesMahmudul Hasan This document discusses the concepts of single-cycle control, multi-cycle control, and pipelining in processors. It explains that single-cycle control has a low CPI but a long clock period, while multi-cycle control has a short clock period but high CPI. Pipelining allows overlapping the execution of instructions to improve throughput. The document presents diagrams of 5-stage instruction pipelines and describes the fetch, decode, execute, memory, and write-back stages. It also discusses pipeline hazards and performance improvements from pipelining over single-cycle and multi-cycle designs.
Cpu scheduling algorithms simulation using java
Cpu scheduling algorithms simulation using javajsivasrinivas This document discusses the simulation of CPU scheduling algorithms using Java. It implements the First Come First Serve (FCFS), Round Robin, Shortest Job First, and Shortest Remaining Time algorithms. Round Robin is designed for time-sharing and uses a time quantum to switch between processes in a circular ready queue. Shortest Job First selects the process with the shortest expected processing time, while Shortest Remaining Time favors the process with the shortest remaining time and can preempt the current process. Java was chosen as the programming language due to its rich GUI, object orientation, documentation capabilities, and popularity.
CPU scheduling algorithms in OS
CPU scheduling algorithms in OSharini0810 This document discusses different CPU scheduling algorithms. It describes the First Come First Serve (FCFS), Shortest Job First (SJF), Priority Scheduling (PS), and Round Robin (RR) algorithms. Each algorithm is evaluated based on criteria like average turnaround time, waiting time, and CPU utilization. FCFS is found to have the highest CPU utilization but higher average turnaround times. SJF provides the lowest average turnaround times but can cause starvation of longer jobs. RR provides fairness but the time quantum setting impacts efficiency. The best algorithm depends on the specific performance measures and system requirements.

OSCh7Joe Christensen This document discusses various techniques for process synchronization including the critical section problem, semaphores, and classical synchronization problems like the bounded buffer, readers-writers, and dining philosophers problems. It provides code examples to illustrate how semaphores can be used to synchronize access to shared resources and ensure mutual exclusion between concurrent processes.
Transactional Memory
Transactional MemoryYuuki Takano Transactional memory is an approach to concurrency that avoids many of the problems with traditional locking approaches like deadlocks and priority inversions. The TL2 algorithm implements transactional memory using software. It associates version numbers with memory locations and tracks read and write sets for transactions. Transactions validate that no other transactions have modified memory since it was read, acquire write locks, and if successful, commit writes by updating version numbers. Hardware transactional memory instead uses CPU caches and modified cache coherence protocols to detect conflicts during transactions.

Core Scheduling for Virtualization: Where are We? (If we Want it!)
Core Scheduling for Virtualization: Where are We? (If we Want it!)Dario Faggioli Clever scheduling of virtual CPUs on Symmetric MultiThreaded systems for, among other things, making highly impractical side-channel attacks even more unpractical, is no new idea. Unfortunately, via exploiting L1TF and MDS vulnerabilities in Intel CPUs, impractical is becoming practical!
But, instead than disabling SMT, we can avoid that VM share cores. This is called core-scheduling, and implementing it requires quite some scheduler changes. Nevertheless, work toward that is being done for both KVM and Xen (and other hypervisors have it already).
After an overview of L1TF and MDS, we will see how core-scheduling may help and why it is so tricky to implement (although in different ways) for both KVM and Xen.
We will show numbers from performance evaluation of the currently available implementations. In fact, all this only matters if performance are better than turning SMT off.
Cpu Scheduling Galvin
Cpu Scheduling GalvinSonali Chauhan The document discusses various CPU scheduling algorithms used in operating systems. It describes the main objective of CPU scheduling as maximizing CPU utilization by allowing multiple processes to share the CPU. It then explains different scheduling criteria like throughput, turnaround time, waiting time and response time. Finally, it summarizes common scheduling algorithms like first come first served, shortest job first, priority scheduling and round robin scheduling.
Round robin scheduling
Round robin schedulingRaghav S The document discusses different types of scheduling algorithms. It describes cyclic scheduling, where a set of periodic tasks are executed repeatedly in a defined cycle. Round robin scheduling is also covered, where each task gets a time slice to execute in a cyclic queue before the next task runs. The round robin algorithm aims to be fair by giving each task an equal share of CPU time. Examples of using these algorithms for orchestra robots and VoIP are provided.

Distributed computing time
Distributed computing timeDeepak John 1. Time is an important metric in distributed systems for consistency, transactions, and debugging. Hardware clocks can drift and skew over time compared to each other.
2. Several clock synchronization algorithms aim to minimize clock differences, including Cristian's method of periodically querying a time server, Berkeley's algorithm of polling slaves and adjusting, and NTP's hierarchical structure.
3. Logical clocks provide a partial ordering of events without exact timestamps, using happened-before relationships and monotonically increasing counters. Vector clocks extend this to multiple processes.
4. A global state represents all local process states and message contents at a consistent cut, where all message sends are recorded before corresponding receives. This is needed for tasks like distributed garbage collection

Os module 2 ba
Os module 2 baGichelle Amon The document discusses different scheduling algorithms used by operating systems. It begins by explaining that the scheduler decides which process to activate from the ready queue when multiple processes are runnable. There are long-term, medium-term, and short-term schedulers that control admission of jobs, memory allocation, and CPU sharing respectively. The goal of scheduling is to optimize system performance and resource utilization while providing responsive service. Common algorithms include first-come first-served (FCFS), shortest job first (SJF), priority scheduling, and round-robin. FCFS schedules processes in the order of arrival while SJF selects the shortest job first. Priority scheduling preempts lower priority jobs.
Comparison Analysis of CPU Scheduling : FCFS, SJF and Round Robin
Comparison Analysis of CPU Scheduling : FCFS, SJF and Round RobinUniversitas Pembangunan Panca Budi Task scheduling is needed to maintain every process that comes with a processor in parallel processing. In several conditions, not every algorithm works better on the significant problem. Sometimes FCFS algorithm is better than the other in short burst time while Round Robin is better for multiple processes in every single time. But we cannot predict what process will come after. Average Waiting Time is a standard measure for giving credit to the scheduling algorithm. Several techniques have been applied to maintain the process in order to make the CPU performance in normal. The objective of this paper is to compare three algorithms, FCFS, SJF and Round Robin. Finally, we know which algorithm is more suitable for the certain process.

timers 2.ppt
timers 2.pptycelgemici1 Timers in Linux use jiffies which increment every clock interrupt to provide a timestamp. The HZ value determines the frequency of clock interrupts, with typical values being 1000 Hz or 100 Hz. High resolution timers allow nanosecond precision and are implemented as a red-black tree. They can be used for timers that need high resolution and are expected to expire. Tickless kernels remove the need for idle CPUs to process timer interrupts every jiffy, saving power.

Concurrency 2010
Concurrency 2010敬倫 林 This document discusses concurrency in SystemC simulations. It explains that SystemC uses events and processes to model concurrent systems. There are two main types of processes: threads and methods. Threads can wait for events using wait() and methods use next_trigger() to establish dynamic sensitivity. Events have no duration and are used to trigger processes. Notifying an event using notify() moves waiting processes to the ready queue. The SystemC kernel is event-driven and executes ready processes in non-deterministic order.
class12_time.ppt
class12_time.pptGauravWaila This document discusses various methods for measuring time on a computer system, including interval counting, cycle counters, and the Unix time command. It notes that two fundamental time scales exist: processor time (~10-9 sec) and external event time (~10-2 sec). Accuracy of interval counting depends on the timer interval length, and multiple measurements are needed to account for variability. Cycle counters provide very fine-grained time measurements but may be affected by cache effects and other processes. The K-best measurement scheme takes multiple time measurements and discards outliers to improve accuracy.

Week 1 Time_measuremenjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjt.pdfdevinezekiel2003 This document discusses time measurement in embedded systems. It explains that most embedded applications need to measure time for functions like auto power off, playing media, and measuring elapsed time. It also discusses real-time systems and the difference between hard and soft real-time constraints. Examples of needing real-time measurement include missile control and autonomous vehicles. The document then talks about different ways to measure time on embedded platforms like Arduino and ESP32 using millis(), micros(), and interrupts. It provides examples of using delays or interrupts to trigger a task repeatedly every second. Finally, it provides homework questions involving measuring elapsed time and triggering tasks using delays or interrupts on Arduino or C/C++.
Priority Scheduling.pptx
Priority Scheduling.pptxSarupyaDatta1 Sarupya Datta Sub discusses two CPU scheduling algorithms: Shortest Remaining Time First (SRTF) and First Come First Serve (FCFS). SRTF is a preemptive algorithm that selects the process with the shortest remaining burst time to execute next, aiming to minimize average waiting and turnaround times. FCFS is a non-preemptive algorithm that executes processes in the order of their arrival, without considering process length or priority. Sarupya provides examples calculating waiting times, turnaround times, and CPU idle time for sample processes under each scheduling algorithm. They conclude that scheduling algorithms aim to maximize throughput by determining the next process to receive CPU time.
RTOS implementation
RTOS implementationRajan Kumar The document discusses real-time operating systems for embedded systems. It describes that RTOS are necessary for systems with scheduling of multiple processes and devices. An RTOS kernel manages tasks, inter-task communication, memory allocation, timers and I/O devices. The document provides examples of creating tasks to blink an LED and print to USART ports, using a semaphore for synchronization between tasks. The tasks are run and output is seen on a Minicom terminal.

Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.
