Real-time applications may have design flaws causing them to have unexpected latency. For example, the applications may raise page faults, or may be blocked trying to take a mutex without priority inheritance.
However, while attempting to implement DA monitors for these real-time rules, deterministic automaton is found to be inappropriate as the specification language. The automaton is complicated, hard to understand, and error-prone. For these cases, linear temporal logic is found to be more suitable. The LTL is more concise and intuitive. This series adds support for LTL RV monitor, and use it to implement two monitors for reporting problems with real-time tasks. Patch 1-12 cleanup and prepare the RV code for the integration of LTL monitors. Patch 13 adds support for LTL monitors. Patch 14 adds the container monitor "rtapp". This encapsulates the sub-monitors for real-time. Patch 15-18 prepares the pagefault tracepoints, so that patch 19 can add the monitor which watches real-time tasks doing page faults. Patch 20 adds the "sleep" monitor: it detects potential undesirable latency with real-time threads. Patch 21 adds documentation on the new monitors. Patch 22 allows the number of per-task monitors to be configurable, so that the two new monitors can be enabled simultaneously. v6->v7 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1745999587.git.nam...@linutronix.de/ - Add missing parameter description for vpanic() - Remove the now-redundant CFLAGS_fault.o for x86 - Change #if to #ifdef to resolve a build warning - rtapp/sleep monitor: + Handle the case where an RT task "aborts" the sleep by setting state to TASK_RUNNING. This case previously caused a false positive. Fix it by adding "ABORT_SLEEP" as an RT-safe wake. + Also allow CLOCK_TAI for real-time tasks. v5->v6 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1745926331.git.nam...@linutronix.de - sleep monitor: Drop the block_on_rt_mutex tracepoints. The contention tracepoints are sufficient. v4->v5 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1745390829.git.nam...@linutronix.de - sleep monitor: Fix a false positive due to a race with waking and scheduling. - sleep monitor: Add block_on_rt_mutex tracepoints and use them for BLOCK_ON_RT_MUTEX, instead of trace_sched_pi_setprio - sleep monitor: tighten the rule on nanosleep: only clock_nanosleep() with TIMER_ABSTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC is allowed - add comments explaining why it is correct to treat PI-boosted tasks as real-time tasks. It should be noted that due to the changes in v5, 'perf' does not work as well as before, because sometimes the errors happen out of the real-time tasks' contexts. Fixing this is left for future work. stress-ng is also far noisier in v5, because the rule on nanosleep is tightened. v3->v4 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1744785335.git.nam...@linutronix.de - support deadline tasks - rtapp_sleep: use sched_pi_setprio tracepoint instead of contention tracepoints for BLOCK_ON_RT_MUTEX, so that proxy lock is covered. - fix the scripts generating an "slightly" incorrect verification automaton - makes rtapp monitor depends on RV_PER_TASK_MONITORS >= 2 - make the event tracepoint output a bit more readable - some documentation's format fixes v2->v3 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1744355018.git.nam...@linutronix.de/ - fix a problem with sleep monitor's specification (around KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP) - merge the patches that move the dot2k/rvgen scripts around - pull panic/printk changes into separate patches - fixup some build errors - fixup monitor's init function return code - fix some flake8 warnings with the scripts - add some references to LTL documentation - fixup some mistakes with rtapp documentation - fixup capitalization mistake with monitor_synthesis.rst - remove the now-redundant macro RV_PER_TASK_MONITORS v1->v2 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1741708239.git.nam...@linutronix.de/ - Integrate the LTL scripts into the existing dot2k tool, taking advantage of the existing monitor generation scripts. - Switch the struct ltl_monitor to use bitmap instead of an array, to optimize memory usage. - Correct the generated code to be non-deterministic state machine, instead of deterministic state machine - Put common code for all LTL monitors into a single file (include/rv/ltl_monitor.h), reducing code duplication - Change the LTL monitors to make user of container.
