WARNING +========== + + Fiddling with these settings can result in an unpredictable or even unstable + system behavior. As for -rt (group) scheduling, it is assumed that root users + know what they're doing. + + +1. Overview +=========== + + The SCHED_DEADLINE policy contained inside the sched_dl scheduling class is + basically an implementation of the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling + algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) + that makes it possible to isolate the behavior of tasks between each other. + + +2. Scheduling algorithm +================== + + SCHED_DEADLINE uses three parameters, named "runtime", "period", and + "deadline" to schedule tasks. A SCHED_DEADLINE task is guaranteed to receive + "runtime" microseconds of execution time every "period" microseconds, and + these "runtime" microseconds are available within "deadline" microseconds + from the beginning of the period. In order to implement this behaviour, + every time the task wakes up, the scheduler computes a "scheduling deadline" + consistent with the guarantee (using the CBS[2,3] algorithm). Tasks are then + scheduled using EDF[1] on these scheduling deadlines (the task with the + smallest scheduling deadline is selected for execution). Notice that this + guaranteed is respected if a proper "admission control" strategy (see Section + "4. Bandwidth management") is used. + + Summing up, the CBS[2,3] algorithms assigns scheduling deadlines to tasks so + that each task runs for at most its runtime every period, avoiding any + interference between different tasks (bandwidth isolation), while the EDF[1] + algorithm selects the task with the smallest scheduling deadline as the one + to be executed first. Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not + strictly comply with the "traditional" real-time task model (see Section 3) + can effectively use the new policy. + + In more details, the CBS algorithm assigns scheduling deadlines to + tasks in the following way: + + - Each SCHED_DEADLINE task is characterised by the "runtime", + "deadline", and "period" parameters; + + - The state of the task is described by a "scheduling deadline", and + a "current runtime". These two parameters are initially set to 0; + + - When a SCHED_DEADLINE task wakes up (becomes ready for execution), + the scheduler checks if + + current runtime runtime + ---------------------------------- > ---------------- + scheduling deadline - current time period + + then, if the scheduling deadline is smaller than the current time, or + this condition is verified, the scheduling deadline and the + current budget are re-initialised as + + scheduling deadline = current time + deadline + current runtime = runtime + + otherwise, the scheduling deadline and the current runtime are + left unchanged; + + - When a SCHED_DEADLINE task executes for an amount of time t, its + current runtime is decreased as + + current runtime = current runtime - t + + (technically, the runtime is decreased at every tick, or when the + task is descheduled / preempted); + + - When the current runtime becomes less or equal than 0, the task is + said to be "throttled" (also known as "depleted" in real-time literature) + and cannot be scheduled until its scheduling deadline.

Scheduling Real-Time Tasks +============================= + + * BIG FAT WARNING ****************************************************** + * + * This section contains a (not-thorough) summary on classical deadline + * scheduling theory, and how it applies to SCHED_DEADLINE. + * The reader can "safely" skip to Section 4 if only interested in seeing + * how the scheduling policy can be used. Anyway, we strongly recommend + * to come back here and continue reading (once the urge for testing is + * satisfied :P) to be sure of fully understanding all technical details. + ************************************************************************ + + There are no limitations on what kind of task can exploit this new + scheduling discipline, even if it must be said that it is particularly + suited for periodic or sporadic real-time tasks that need guarantees on their + timing behavior, e.g., multimedia, streaming, control applications, etc. + + A typical real-time task is composed of a repetition of computation phases + (task instances, or jobs) which are activated on a periodic or sporadic + fashion. + Each job J_j (where J_j is the j^th job of the task) is characterised by an + arrival time r_j (the time when the job starts), an amount of computation + time c_j needed to finish the job, and a job absolute deadline d_j, which + is the time within which the job should be finished. The maximum execution + time max_j{c_j} is called "Worst Case Execution Time" (WCET) for the task. + A real-time task can be periodic with period P if r_{j+1} = r_j + P, or + sporadic with minimum inter-arrival time P is r_{j+1} >= r_j + P. Finally, + d_j = r_j + D, where D is the task's relative deadline. + + SCHED_DEADLINE can be used to schedule real-time tasks guaranteeing that + the jobs' deadlines of a task are respected. In order to do this, a task + must be scheduled by setting: + + - runtime >= WCET + - deadline = D + - period <= P + + IOW, if runtime >= WCET and if period is >= P, then the scheduling deadlines + and the absolute deadlines (d_j) coincide, so a proper admission control + allows to respect the jobs' absolute deadlines for this task (this is what is + called "hard schedulability property" and is an extension of Lemma 1 of [2]). + + References: + 1 - C.

Bandwidth management +======================= + + In order for the -deadline scheduling to be effective and useful, it is + important to have some method to keep the allocation of the available CPU + bandwidth to the tasks under control. + This is usually called "admission control" and if it is not performed at all, + no guarantee can be given on the actual scheduling of the -deadline tasks. + + Since when RT-throttling has been introduced each task group has a bandwidth + associated, calculated as a certain amount of runtime over a period. + Moreover, to make it possible to manipulate such bandwidth, readable/writable + controls have been added to both procfs (for system wide settings) and cgroupfs + (for per-group settings). + Therefore, the same interface is being used for controlling the bandwidth + distrubution to -deadline tasks. + + However, more discussion is needed in order to figure out how we want to manage + SCHED_DEADLINE bandwidth at the task group level. Therefore, SCHED_DEADLINE + uses (for now) a less sophisticated, but actually very sensible, mechanism to + ensure that a certain utilization cap is not overcome per each root_domain. + + Another main difference between deadline bandwidth management and RT-throttling + is that -deadline tasks have bandwidth on their own (while -rt ones don't!), + and thus we don't need an higher level throttling mechanism to enforce the + desired bandwidth. + +4.1 System wide settings +------------------------ + + The system wide settings are configured under the /proc virtual file system. + + For now the -rt knobs are used for dl admission control and the -deadline + runtime is accounted against the -rt runtime. We realise that this isn't + entirely desirable; however, it is better to have a small interface for now, + and be able to change it easily later. The ideal situation (see 5.) is to run + -rt tasks from a -deadline server; in which case the -rt bandwidth is a direct + subset of dl_bw. + + This means that, for a root_domain comprising M CPUs, -deadline tasks + can be created while the sum of their bandwidths stays below: + + M * (sched_rt_runtime_us / sched_rt_period_us) + + It is also possible to disable this bandwidth management logic, and + be thus free of oversubscribing the system up to any arbitrary level. + This is done by writing -1 in /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us. + + +4.2 Task interface +------------------ + + Specifying a periodic/sporadic task that executes for a given amount of + runtime at each instance, and that is scheduled according to the urgency of + its own timing constraints needs, in general, a way of declaring: + - a (maximum/typical) instance execution time, + - a minimum interval between consecutive instances, + - a time constraint by which each instance must be completed. + + Therefore: + * a new struct sched_attr, containing all the necessary fields is + provided; + * the new scheduling related syscalls that manipulate it, i.e., + sched_setattr() and sched_getattr() are implemented. + + +4.3 Default behavior +--------------------- + + The default value for SCHED_DEADLINE bandwidth is to have rt_runtime equal to + 950000. With rt_period equal to 1000000, by default, it means that -deadline + tasks can use at most 95%, multiplied by the number of CPUs that compose the + root_domain, for each root_domain. + + A -deadline task cannot fork. + +5. Tasks CPU affinity +===================== + + -deadline tasks cannot have an affinity mask smaller that the entire + root_domain they are created on. However, affinities can be specified + through the cpuset facility (Documentation/cgroups/cpusets.txt). + +5.1 SCHED_DEADLINE and cpusets HOWTO +------------------------------------ + + An example of a simple configuration (pin a -deadline task to CPU0) + follows (rt-app is used to create a -deadline task). + + mkdir /dev/cpuset + mount -t cgroup -o cpuset cpuset /dev/cpuset + cd /dev/cpuset + mkdir cpu0 + echo 0 > cpu0/cpuset.cpus + echo 0 > cpu0/cpuset.mems + echo 1 > cpuset.cpu_exclusive + echo 0 > cpuset.sched_load_balance + echo 1 > cpu0/cpuset.cpu_exclusive + echo 1 > cpu0/cpuset.mem_exclusive + echo $$ > cpu0/tasks + rt-app -t 100000:10000:d:0 -D5 (it is now actually superfluous to specify + task affinity) + +6.

It has been -designed to run properly on SMP systems as well. - -The latest version of the SN9C1xx driver can be found at the following URL: -http://www.linux-projects.org/ - -Some of the features of the driver are: - -- full compliance with the Video4Linux2 API (see also "Notes for V4L2 - application developers" paragraph); -- available mmap or read/poll methods for video streaming through isochronous - data transfers; -- automatic detection of image sensor; -- support for built-in microphone interface; -- support for any window resolutions and optional panning within the maximum - pixel area of image sensor; -- image downscaling with arbitrary scaling factors from 1, 2 and 4 in both - directions (see "Notes for V4L2 application developers" paragraph); -- two different video formats for uncompressed or compressed data in low or - high compression quality (see also "Notes for V4L2 application developers" - and "Video frame formats" paragraphs); -- full support for the capabilities of many of the possible image sensors that - can be connected to the SN9C1xx bridges, including, for instance, red, green, - blue and global gain adjustments and exposure (see "Supported devices" - paragraph for details); -- use of default color settings for sunlight conditions; -- dynamic I/O interface for both SN9C1xx and image sensor control and - monitoring (see "Optional device control through 'sysfs'" paragraph); -- dynamic driver control thanks to various module parameters (see "Module - parameters" paragraph); -- up to 64 cameras can be handled at the same time; they can be connected and - disconnected from the host many times without turning off the computer, if - the system supports hotplugging; -- no known bugs. - - -5. Module dependencies -====================== -For it to work properly, the driver needs kernel support for Video4Linux and -USB. - -The following options of the kernel configuration file must be enabled and -corresponding modules must be compiled: - - # Multimedia devices - # - CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=m - -To enable advanced debugging functionality on the device through /sysfs: - - # Multimedia devices - # - CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG=y - - # USB support - # - CONFIG_USB=m - -In addition, depending on the hardware being used, the modules below are -necessary: - - # USB Host Controller Drivers - # - CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD=m - CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD=m - CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD=m - -The SN9C103, SN9c105 and SN9C120 controllers also provide a built-in microphone -interface. It is supported by the USB Audio driver thanks to the ALSA API: - - # Sound - # - CONFIG_SOUND=y - - # Advanced Linux Sound Architecture - # - CONFIG_SND=m - - # USB devices - # - CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=m - -And finally: - - # USB Multimedia devices - # - CONFIG_USB_SN9C102=m - - -6. Module loading -================= -To use the driver, it is necessary to load the "sn9c102" module into memory -after every other module required: "videodev", "v4l2_common", "compat_ioctl32", -"usbcore" and, depending on the USB host controller you have, "ehci-hcd", -"uhci-hcd" or "ohci-hcd". - -Loading can be done as shown below: - - [root@localhost home]# modprobe sn9c102 - -Note that the module is called "sn9c102" for historic reasons, although it -does not just support the SN9C102. - -At this point all the devices supported by the driver and connected to the USB -ports should be recognized. You can invoke "dmesg" to analyze kernel messages -and verify that the loading process has gone well: - - [user@localhost home]$ dmesg - -or, to isolate all the kernel messages generated by the driver: - - [user@localhost home]$ dmesg | grep sn9c102 - - -7. Module parameters -==================== -Module parameters are listed below: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Name: video_nr -Type: short array (min = 0, max = 64) -Syntax: <-1|n[,...]> -Description: Specify V4L2 minor mode number: - -1 = use next available - n = use minor number n - You can specify up to 64 cameras this way. - For example: - video_nr=-1,2,-1 would assign minor number 2 to the second - recognized camera and use auto for the first one and for every - other camera. -Default: -1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Name: force_munmap -Type: bool array (min = 0, max = 64) -Syntax: <0|1[,...]> -Description: Force the application to unmap previously mapped buffer memory - before calling any VIDIOC_S_CROP or VIDIOC_S_FMT ioctl's. Not - all the applications support this feature. This parameter is - specific for each detected camera. - 0 = do not force memory unmapping - 1 = force memory unmapping (save memory) -Default: 0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Name: frame_timeout -Type: uint array (min = 0, max = 64) -Syntax: <0|n[,...]> -Description: Timeout for a video frame in seconds before returning an I/O - error; 0 for infinity. This parameter is specific for each - detected camera and can be changed at runtime thanks to the - /sys filesystem interface. -Default: 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Name: debug -Type: ushort -Syntax: <n> -Description: Debugging information level, from 0 to 3: - 0 = none (use carefully) - 1 = critical errors - 2 = significant information - 3 = more verbose messages - Level 3 is useful for testing only. It also shows some more - information about the hardware being detected. - This parameter can be changed at runtime thanks to the /sys - filesystem interface. -Default: 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - - -8. Optional device control through "sysfs" [1] -========================================== -If the kernel has been compiled with the CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG option enabled, -it is possible to read and write both the SN9C1xx and the image sensor -registers by using the "sysfs" filesystem interface. - -Every time a supported device is recognized, a write-only file named "green" is -created in the /sys/class/video4linux/videoX directory. You can set the green -channel's gain by writing the desired value to it. The value may range from 0 -to 15 for the SN9C101 or SN9C102 bridges, from 0 to 127 for the SN9C103, -SN9C105 and SN9C120 bridges. -Similarly, only for the SN9C103, SN9C105 and SN9C120 controllers, blue and red -gain control files are available in the same directory, for which accepted -values may range from 0 to 127. - -There are other four entries in the directory above for each registered camera: -"reg", "val", "i2c_reg" and "i2c_val". The first two files control the -SN9C1xx bridge, while the other two control the sensor chip. "reg" and -"i2c_reg" hold the values of the current register index where the following -reading/writing operations are addressed at through "val" and "i2c_val". Their -use is not intended for end-users. Note that "i2c_reg" and "i2c_val" will not -be created if the sensor does not actually support the standard I2C protocol or -its registers are not 8-bit long. Also, remember that you must be logged in as -root before writing to them. - -As an example, suppose we were to want to read the value contained in the -register number 1 of the sensor register table - which is usually the product -identifier - of the camera registered as "/dev/video0": - - [root@localhost #] cd /sys/class/video4linux/video0 - [root@localhost #] echo 1 > i2c_reg - [root@localhost #] cat i2c_val - -Note that "cat" will fail if sensor registers cannot be read. - -Now let's set the green gain's register of the SN9C101 or SN9C102 chips to 2: - - [root@localhost #] echo 0x11 > reg - [root@localhost #] echo 2 > val - -Note that the SN9C1xx always returns 0 when some of its registers are read. -To avoid race conditions, all the I/O accesses to the above files are -serialized. -The sysfs interface also provides the "frame_header" entry, which exports the -frame header of the most recent requested and captured video frame. The header -is always 18-bytes long and is appended to every video frame by the SN9C1xx -controllers. As an example, this additional information can be used by the user -application for implementing auto-exposure features via software. - -The following table describes the frame header exported by the SN9C101 and -SN9C102: - -Byte # Value or bits Description ------- ------------- ----------- -0x00 0xFF Frame synchronisation pattern -0x01 0xFF Frame synchronisation pattern -0x02 0x00 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x03 0xC4 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x04 0xC4 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x05 0x96 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x06 [3:0] Read channel gain control = (1+R_GAIN/8) - [7:4] Blue channel gain control = (1+B_GAIN/8) -0x07 [ 0 ] Compression mode. 0=No compression, 1=Compression enabled - [2:1] Maximum scale factor for compression - [ 3 ] 1 = USB fifo(2K bytes) is full - [ 4 ] 1 = Digital gain is finish - [ 5 ] 1 = Exposure is finish - [7:6] Frame index -0x08 [7:0] Y sum inside Auto-Exposure area (low-byte) -0x09 [7:0] Y sum inside Auto-Exposure area (high-byte) - where Y sum = (R/4 + 5G/16 + B/8) / 32 -0x0A [7:0] Y sum outside Auto-Exposure area (low-byte) -0x0B [7:0] Y sum outside Auto-Exposure area (high-byte) - where Y sum = (R/4 + 5G/16 + B/8) / 128 -0x0C 0xXX Not used -0x0D 0xXX Not used -0x0E 0xXX Not used -0x0F 0xXX Not used -0x10 0xXX Not used -0x11 0xXX Not used - -The following table describes the frame header exported by the SN9C103: - -Byte # Value or bits Description ------- ------------- ----------- -0x00 0xFF Frame synchronisation pattern -0x01 0xFF Frame synchronisation pattern -0x02 0x00 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x03 0xC4 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x04 0xC4 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x05 0x96 Frame synchronisation pattern -0x06 [6:0] Read channel gain control = (1/2+R_GAIN/64) -0x07 [6:0] Blue channel gain control = (1/2+B_GAIN/64) - [7:4] -0x08 [ 0 ] Compression mode. 0=No compression, 1=Compression enabled - [2:1] Maximum scale factor for compression - [ 3 ] 1 = USB fifo(2K bytes) is full - [ 4 ] 1 = Digital gain is finish - [ 5 ] 1 = Exposure is finish - [7:6] Frame index -0x09 [7:0] Y sum inside Auto-Exposure area (low-byte) -0x0A [7:0] Y sum inside Auto-Exposure area (high-byte) - where Y sum = (R/4 + 5G/16 + B/8) / 32 -0x0B [7:0] Y sum outside Auto-Exposure area (low-byte) -0x0C [7:0] Y sum outside Auto-Exposure area (high-byte) - where Y sum = (R/4 + 5G/16 + B/8) / 128 -0x0D [1:0] Audio frame number - [ 2 ] 1 = Audio is recording -0x0E [7:0] Audio summation (low-byte) -0x0F [7:0] Audio summation (high-byte) -0x10 [7:0] Audio sample count -0x11 [7:0] Audio peak data in audio frame - -The AE area (sx, sy, ex, ey) in the active window can be set by programming the -registers 0x1c, 0x1d, 0x1e and 0x1f of the SN9C1xx controllers, where one unit -corresponds to 32 pixels. - -[1] The frame headers exported by the SN9C105 and SN9C120 are not described. - - -9.

Non-available hardware will not be supported by the author of this -driver. - - -10. Notes for V4L2 application developers -========================================= -This driver follows the V4L2 API specifications. In particular, it enforces two -rules: - -- exactly one I/O method, either "mmap" or "read", is associated with each -file descriptor. Once it is selected, the application must close and reopen the -device to switch to the other I/O method; - -- although it is not mandatory, previously mapped buffer memory should always -be unmapped before calling any "VIDIOC_S_CROP" or "VIDIOC_S_FMT" ioctl's. -The same number of buffers as before will be allocated again to match the size -of the new video frames, so you have to map the buffers again before any I/O -attempts on them. - -Consistently with the hardware limits, this driver also supports image -downscaling with arbitrary scaling factors from 1, 2 and 4 in both directions. -However, the V4L2 API specifications don't correctly define how the scaling -factor can be chosen arbitrarily by the "negotiation" of the "source" and -"target" rectangles. To work around this flaw, we have added the convention -that, during the negotiation, whenever the "VIDIOC_S_CROP" ioctl is issued, the -scaling factor is restored to 1. - -This driver supports two different video formats: the first one is the "8-bit -Sequential Bayer" format and can be used to obtain uncompressed video data -from the device through the current I/O method, while the second one provides -either "raw" compressed video data (without frame headers not related to the -compressed data) or standard JPEG (with frame headers). The compression quality -may vary from 0 to 1 and can be selected or queried thanks to the -VIDIOC_S_JPEGCOMP and VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP V4L2 ioctl's. For maximum flexibility, -both the default active video format and the default compression quality -depend on how the image sensor being used is initialized. - - -11. Video frame formats [1] -======================= -The SN9C1xx PC Camera Controllers can send images in two possible video -formats over the USB: either native "Sequential RGB Bayer" or compressed. -The compression is used to achieve high frame rates. With regard to the -SN9C101, SN9C102 and SN9C103, the compression is based on the Huffman encoding -algorithm described below, while with regard to the SN9C105 and SN9C120 the -compression is based on the JPEG standard. -The current video format may be selected or queried from the user application -by calling the VIDIOC_S_FMT or VIDIOC_G_FMT ioctl's, as described in the V4L2 -API specifications. - -The name "Sequential Bayer" indicates the organization of the red, green and -blue pixels in one video frame. Each pixel is associated with a 8-bit long -value and is disposed in memory according to the pattern shown below: - -B[0] G[1] B[2] G[3] ... B[m-2] G[m-1] -G[m] R[m+1] G[m+2] R[m+2] ... G[2m-2] R[2m-1] -... -... B[(n-1)(m-2)] G[(n-1)(m-1)] -... G[n(m-2)] R[n(m-1)] - -The above matrix also represents the sequential or progressive read-out mode of -the (n, m) Bayer color filter array used in many CCD or CMOS image sensors. - -The Huffman compressed video frame consists of a bitstream that encodes for -every R, G, or B pixel the difference between the value of the pixel itself and -some reference pixel value. Pixels are organised in the Bayer pattern and the -Bayer sub-pixels are tracked individually and alternatingly. For example, in -the first line values for the B and G1 pixels are alternatingly encoded, while -in the second line values for the G2 and R pixels are alternatingly encoded. - -The pixel reference value is calculated as follows: -- the 4 top left pixels are encoded in raw uncompressed 8-bit format; -- the value in the top two rows is the value of the pixel left of the current - pixel; -- the value in the left column is the value of the pixel above the current - pixel; -- for all other pixels, the reference value is the average of the value of the - pixel on the left and the value of the pixel above the current pixel; -- there is one code in the bitstream that specifies the value of a pixel - directly (in 4-bit resolution); -- pixel values need to be clamped inside the range [0..255] for proper - decoding. - -The algorithm purely describes the conversion from compressed Bayer code used -in the SN9C101, SN9C102 and SN9C103 chips to uncompressed Bayer. Additional -steps are required to convert this to a color image (i.e. a color interpolation -algorithm). - -The following Huffman codes have been found: -0: +0 (relative to reference pixel value) -100: +4 -101: -4? -1110xxxx: set absolute value to xxxx.0000 -1101: +11 -1111: -11 -11001: +20 -110000: -20 -110001: ??? - these codes are apparently not used - -[1] The Huffman compression algorithm has been reverse-engineered and - documented by Bertrik Sikken. - - -12.
