Hello,

I am working on the globaledf scheduler and need to lock the ready queue.
I've implemented the locking using CPU_SMP_lock_Control data structure in
i386.

Since we currently have only the Giant lock it is unnecessary to use other locking mechanisms. The introduction of fine grained locking will be a major task.

For a G-EDF scheduler please have a look at:

http://git.rtems.org/rtems/tree/cpukit/score/include/rtems/score/schedulersmpimpl.h

http://git.rtems.org/rtems/tree/cpukit/score/include/rtems/score/schedulerprioritysmp.h

If you use this framework it should be pretty easy to implement a G-EDF scheduler. You only have to replace the priority queue with the red-black tree operations.

I just want to make sure that locking in such way will ensure mutual
exclusion to operations of the ready queue.

Thanks,
Sree
