Driver Basics¶

Driver Entry and Exit points¶

module_init¶

module_init (x)

driver initialization entry point

Parameters

x: function to be run at kernel boot time or module insertion

Description

module_init() will either be called during do_initcalls() (if builtin) or at module insertion time (if a module). There can only be one per module.

module_exit¶

module_exit (x)

driver exit entry point

Parameters

x: function to be run when driver is removed

Description

module_exit() will wrap the driver clean-up code with cleanup_module() when used with rmmod when the driver is a module. If the driver is statically compiled into the kernel, module_exit() has no effect. There can only be one per module.

struct klp_modinfo¶: ELF information preserved from the livepatch module

Definition:

struct klp_modinfo {
    Elf_Ehdr hdr;
    Elf_Shdr *sechdrs;
    char *secstrings;
    unsigned int symndx;
};

Members

hdr: ELF header
sechdrs: Section header table
secstrings: String table for the section headers
symndx: The symbol table section index

bool try_module_get(struct module *module)¶: take module refcount unless module is being removed

Parameters

struct module *module: the module we should check for

Description

Only try to get a module reference count if the module is not being removed. This call will fail if the module is in the process of being removed.

Care must also be taken to ensure the module exists and is alive prior to usage of this call. This can be gauranteed through two means:

Direct protection: you know an earlier caller must have increased the module reference through __module_get(). This can typically be achieved by having another entity other than the module itself increment the module reference count.
Implied protection: there is an implied protection against module removal. An example of this is the implied protection used by kernfs / sysfs. The sysfs store / read file operations are guaranteed to exist through the use of kernfs’s active reference (see kernfs_active()) and a sysfs / kernfs file removal cannot happen unless the same file is not active. Therefore, if a sysfs file is being read or written to the module which created it must still exist. It is therefore safe to use try_module_get() on module sysfs store / read ops.

One of the real values to try_module_get() is the module_is_live() check which ensures that the caller of try_module_get() can yield to userspace module removal requests and gracefully fail if the module is on its way out.

Returns true if the reference count was successfully incremented.

void module_put(struct module *module)¶: release a reference count to a module

Parameters

struct module *module: the module we should release a reference count for

Description

If you successfully bump a reference count to a module with try_module_get(), when you are finished you must call module_put() to release that reference count.

Driver device table¶

struct usb_device_id¶: identifies USB devices for probing and hotplugging

Definition:

struct usb_device_id {
    __u16 match_flags;
    __u16 idVendor;
    __u16 idProduct;
    __u16 bcdDevice_lo;
    __u16 bcdDevice_hi;
    __u8 bDeviceClass;
    __u8 bDeviceSubClass;
    __u8 bDeviceProtocol;
    __u8 bInterfaceClass;
    __u8 bInterfaceSubClass;
    __u8 bInterfaceProtocol;
    __u8 bInterfaceNumber;
    kernel_ulong_t driver_info ;
};

Members

match_flags: Bit mask controlling which of the other fields are used to match against new devices. Any field except for driver_info may be used, although some only make sense in conjunction with other fields. This is usually set by a USB_DEVICE_*() macro, which sets all other fields in this structure except for driver_info.
idVendor: USB vendor ID for a device; numbers are assigned by the USB forum to its members.
idProduct: Vendor-assigned product ID.
bcdDevice_lo: Low end of range of vendor-assigned product version numbers. This is also used to identify individual product versions, for a range consisting of a single device.
bcdDevice_hi: High end of version number range. The range of product versions is inclusive.
bDeviceClass: Class of device; numbers are assigned by the USB forum. Products may choose to implement classes, or be vendor-specific. Device classes specify behavior of all the interfaces on a device.
bDeviceSubClass: Subclass of device; associated with bDeviceClass.
bDeviceProtocol: Protocol of device; associated with bDeviceClass.
bInterfaceClass: Class of interface; numbers are assigned by the USB forum. Products may choose to implement classes, or be vendor-specific. Interface classes specify behavior only of a given interface; other interfaces may support other classes.
bInterfaceSubClass: Subclass of interface; associated with bInterfaceClass.
bInterfaceProtocol: Protocol of interface; associated with bInterfaceClass.
bInterfaceNumber: Number of interface; composite devices may use fixed interface numbers to differentiate between vendor-specific interfaces.
driver_info: Holds information used by the driver. Usually it holds a pointer to a descriptor understood by the driver, or perhaps device flags.

Description

In most cases, drivers will create a table of device IDs by using USB_DEVICE(), or similar macros designed for that purpose. They will then export it to userspace using MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(), and provide it to the USB core through their usb_driver structure.

See the usb_match_id() function for information about how matches are performed. Briefly, you will normally use one of several macros to help construct these entries. Each entry you provide will either identify one or more specific products, or will identify a class of products which have agreed to behave the same. You should put the more specific matches towards the beginning of your table, so that driver_info can record quirks of specific products.

Return

zero if successful, or a negative error code

int task_nice(const struct task_struct *p)¶: return the nice value of a given task.

Parameters

const struct task_struct *p: the task in question.

Return

The nice value [ -20 ... 0 ... 19 ].

bool is_idle_task(const struct task_struct *p)¶: is the specified task an idle task?

Parameters

const struct task_struct *p: the task in question.

Return

Description

Attempt to wake up the nominated process and move it to the set of runnable processes.

void preempt_notifier_register(struct preempt_notifier *notifier)¶: tell me when current is being preempted & rescheduled

Parameters

void preempt_notifier_unregister(struct preempt_notifier *notifier)¶: no longer interested in preemption notifications

Parameters

struct preempt_notifier *notifier: notifier struct to unregister

Description

This is not safe to call from within a preemption notifier.

__visible void notrace preempt_schedule_notrace(void)¶: preempt_schedule called by tracing

Parameters

void: no arguments

Description

The tracing infrastructure uses preempt_enable_notrace to prevent recursion and tracing preempt enabling caused by the tracing infrastructure itself. But as tracing can happen in areas coming from userspace or just about to enter userspace, a preempt enable can occur before user_exit() is called. This will cause the scheduler to be called when the system is still in usermode.

To prevent this, the preempt_enable_notrace will use this function instead of preempt_schedule() to exit user context if needed before calling the scheduler.

int cpupri_find_fitness(struct cpupri *cp, struct task_struct *p, struct cpumask *lowest_mask, bool (*fitness_fn)(struct task_struct *p, int cpu))¶: find the best (lowest-pri) CPU in the system

Parameters

struct cpupri *cp: The cpupri context
struct task_struct *p: The task
struct cpumask *lowest_mask: A mask to fill in with selected CPUs (or NULL)
bool (*fitness_fn)(struct task_struct *p, int cpu): A pointer to a function to do custom checks whether the CPU fits a specific criteria so that we only return those CPUs.

Note

This function returns the recommended CPUs as calculated during the current invocation. By the time the call returns, the CPUs may have in fact changed priorities any number of times. While not ideal, it is not an issue of correctness since the normal rebalancer logic will correct any discrepancies created by racing against the uncertainty of the current priority configuration.

Return

(int)bool - CPUs were found

void cpupri_set(struct cpupri *cp, int cpu, int newpri)¶: update the CPU priority setting

Parameters

struct cpupri *cp: The cpupri context
int cpu: The target CPU
int newpri: The priority (INVALID,NORMAL,RT1-RT99,HIGHER) to assign to this CPU

Note

Assumes cpu_rq(cpu)->lock is locked

Return

(void)

void update_tg_load_avg(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq)¶: update the tg’s load avg

Parameters

struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq: the cfs_rq whose avg changed

Description

This function ‘ensures’: tg->load_avg := Sum tg->cfs_rq[]->avg.load. However, because tg->load_avg is a global value there are performance considerations.

In order to avoid having to look at the other cfs_rq’s, we use a differential update where we store the last value we propagated. This in turn allows skipping updates if the differential is ‘small’.

Updating tg’s load_avg is necessary before update_cfs_share().

int update_cfs_rq_load_avg(u64 now, struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq)¶: update the cfs_rq’s load/util averages

Parameters

u64 now: current time, as per cfs_rq_clock_pelt()
struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq: cfs_rq to update

Description

The cfs_rq avg is the direct sum of all its entities (blocked and runnable) avg. The immediate corollary is that all (fair) tasks must be attached.

cfs_rq->avg is used for task_h_load() and update_cfs_share() for example.

Since both these conditions indicate a changed cfs_rq->avg.load we should call update_tg_load_avg() when this function returns true.

Return

true if the load decayed or we removed load.

void attach_entity_load_avg(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se)¶: attach this entity to its cfs_rq load avg

Parameters

struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq: cfs_rq to attach to
struct sched_entity *se: sched_entity to attach

Description

Must call update_cfs_rq_load_avg() before this, since we rely on cfs_rq->avg.last_update_time being current.

void detach_entity_load_avg(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se)¶: detach this entity from its cfs_rq load avg

Parameters

struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq: cfs_rq to detach from
struct sched_entity *se: sched_entity to detach

Description

Must call update_cfs_rq_load_avg() before this, since we rely on cfs_rq->avg.last_update_time being current.

unsigned long cpu_util(int cpu, struct task_struct *p, int dst_cpu, int boost)¶: Estimates the amount of CPU capacity used by CFS tasks.

Parameters

int cpu: the CPU to get the utilization for
struct task_struct *p: task for which the CPU utilization should be predicted or NULL
int dst_cpu: CPU p migrates to, -1 if p moves from cpu or p == NULL
int boost: 1 to enable boosting, otherwise 0

Description

The unit of the return value must be the same as the one of CPU capacity so that CPU utilization can be compared with CPU capacity.

CPU utilization is the sum of running time of runnable tasks plus the recent utilization of currently non-runnable tasks on that CPU. It represents the amount of CPU capacity currently used by CFS tasks in the range [0..max CPU capacity] with max CPU capacity being the CPU capacity at f_max.

The estimated CPU utilization is defined as the maximum between CPU utilization and sum of the estimated utilization of the currently runnable tasks on that CPU. It preserves a utilization “snapshot” of previously-executed tasks, which helps better deduce how busy a CPU will be when a long-sleeping task wakes up. The contribution to CPU utilization of such a task would be significantly decayed at this point of time.

Boosted CPU utilization is defined as max(CPU runnable, CPU utilization). CPU contention for CFS tasks can be detected by CPU runnable > CPU utilization. Boosting is implemented in cpu_util() so that internal users (e.g. EAS) can use it next to external users (e.g. schedutil), latter via cpu_util_cfs_boost().

CPU utilization can be higher than the current CPU capacity (f_curr/f_max * max CPU capacity) or even the max CPU capacity because of rounding errors as well as task migrations or wakeups of new tasks. CPU utilization has to be capped to fit into the [0..max CPU capacity] range. Otherwise a group of CPUs (CPU0 util = 121% + CPU1 util = 80%) could be seen as over-utilized even though CPU1 has 20% of spare CPU capacity. CPU utilization is allowed to overshoot current CPU capacity though since this is useful for predicting the CPU capacity required after task migrations (scheduler-driven DVFS).

Return

(Boosted) (estimated) utilization for the specified CPU.

bool sched_use_asym_prio(struct sched_domain *sd, int cpu)¶: Check whether asym_packing priority must be used

Parameters

struct sched_domain *sd: The scheduling domain of the load balancing
int cpu: A CPU

bool sched_group_asym(struct lb_env *env, struct sg_lb_stats *sgs, struct sched_group *group)¶: Check if the destination CPU can do asym_packing balance

u64 jiffies_to_nsecs(const unsigned long j)¶: Convert jiffies to nanoseconds

Parameters

const unsigned long j: jiffies value

Return

nanoseconds value

unsigned long msecs_to_jiffies(const unsigned int m)¶

convert milliseconds to jiffies

Parameters

const unsigned int m: time in milliseconds

Description

conversion is done as follows:

negative values mean ‘infinite timeout’ (MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)
‘too large’ values [that would result in larger than MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET values] mean ‘infinite timeout’ too.
all other values are converted to jiffies by either multiplying the input value by a factor or dividing it with a factor and handling any 32-bit overflows. for the details see __msecs_to_jiffies()

msecs_to_jiffies() checks for the passed in value being a constant via __builtin_constant_p() allowing gcc to eliminate most of the code. __msecs_to_jiffies() is called if the value passed does not allow constant folding and the actual conversion must be done at runtime. The HZ range specific helpers _msecs_to_jiffies() are called both directly here and from __msecs_to_jiffies() in the case where constant folding is not possible.

Return

jiffies value

unsigned long usecs_to_jiffies(const unsigned int u)¶

convert microseconds to jiffies

Parameters

const unsigned int u: time in microseconds

Description

conversion is done as follows:

‘too large’ values [that would result in larger than MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET values] mean ‘infinite timeout’ too.
all other values are converted to jiffies by either multiplying the input value by a factor or dividing it with a factor and handling any 32-bit overflows as for msecs_to_jiffies.

usecs_to_jiffies() checks for the passed in value being a constant via __builtin_constant_p() allowing gcc to eliminate most of the code. __usecs_to_jiffies() is called if the value passed does not allow constant folding and the actual conversion must be done at runtime. The HZ range specific helpers _usecs_to_jiffies() are called both directly here and from __msecs_to_jiffies() in the case where constant folding is not possible.

Return

jiffies value

unsigned int jiffies_to_msecs(const unsigned long j)¶: Convert jiffies to milliseconds

Parameters

const unsigned long j: jiffies value

Description

Avoid unnecessary multiplications/divisions in the two most common HZ cases.

time64_t mktime64(const unsigned int year0, const unsigned int mon0, const unsigned int day, const unsigned int hour, const unsigned int min, const unsigned int sec)¶: Converts date to seconds.

Parameters

const unsigned int year0: year to convert
const unsigned int mon0: month to convert
const unsigned int day: day to convert
const unsigned int hour: hour to convert
const unsigned int min: minute to convert
const unsigned int sec: second to convert

Description

Converts Gregorian date to seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00. Assumes input in normal date format, i.e. 1980-12-31 23:59:59 => year=1980, mon=12, day=31, hour=23, min=59, sec=59.

[For the Julian calendar (which was used in Russia before 1917, Britain & colonies before 1752, anywhere else before 1582, and is still in use by some communities) leave out the -year/100+year/400 terms, and add 10.]

This algorithm was first published by Gauss (I think).

A leap second can be indicated by calling this function with sec as 60 (allowable under ISO 8601). The leap second is treated the same as the following second since they don’t exist in UNIX time.

An encoding of midnight at the end of the day as 24:00:00 - ie. midnight tomorrow - (allowable under ISO 8601) is supported.

Return

seconds since the epoch time for the given input date

void set_normalized_timespec64(struct timespec64 *ts, time64_t sec, s64 nsec)¶: set timespec sec and nsec parts and normalize

Parameters

struct timespec64 *ts: pointer to timespec variable to be set
time64_t sec: seconds to set
s64 nsec: nanoseconds to set

Description

Set seconds and nanoseconds field of a timespec variable and normalize to the timespec storage format

Note

The tv_nsec part is always in the range of 0 <= tv_nsec < NSEC_PER_SEC. For negative values only the tv_sec field is negative !

struct timespec64 ns_to_timespec64(s64 nsec)¶: Convert nanoseconds to timespec64

Parameters

s64 nsec: the nanoseconds value to be converted

Return

the timespec64 representation of the nsec parameter.

unsigned long __msecs_to_jiffies(const unsigned int m)¶

convert milliseconds to jiffies

Parameters

const unsigned int m: time in milliseconds

Description

conversion is done as follows:

negative values mean ‘infinite timeout’ (MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)
‘too large’ values [that would result in larger than MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET values] mean ‘infinite timeout’ too.
all other values are converted to jiffies by either multiplying the input value by a factor or dividing it with a factor and handling any 32-bit overflows. for the details see __msecs_to_jiffies()

__msecs_to_jiffies() checks for the passed in value being a constant via __builtin_constant_p() allowing gcc to eliminate most of the code, __msecs_to_jiffies() is called if the value passed does not allow constant folding and the actual conversion must be done at runtime. The _msecs_to_jiffies helpers are the HZ dependent conversion routines found in include/linux/jiffies.h

Return

jiffies value

unsigned long __usecs_to_jiffies(const unsigned int u)¶

convert microseconds to jiffies

Parameters

const unsigned int u: time in milliseconds

Return

jiffies value

unsigned long timespec64_to_jiffies(const struct timespec64 *value)¶: convert a timespec64 value to jiffies

Parameters

const struct timespec64 *value: pointer to struct timespec64

Description

The TICK_NSEC - 1 rounds up the value to the next resolution. Note that a remainder subtract here would not do the right thing as the resolution values don’t fall on second boundaries. I.e. the line: nsec -= nsec % TICK_NSEC; is NOT a correct resolution rounding. Note that due to the small error in the multiplier here, this rounding is incorrect for sufficiently large values of tv_nsec, but well formed timespecs should have tv_nsec < NSEC_PER_SEC, so we’re OK.

Rather, we just shift the bits off the right.

The >> (NSEC_JIFFIE_SC - SEC_JIFFIE_SC) converts the scaled nsec value to a scaled second value.

Return

jiffies value

void jiffies_to_timespec64(const unsigned long jiffies, struct timespec64 *value)¶: convert jiffies value to struct timespec64

u64 nsecs_to_jiffies64(u64 n)¶: Convert nsecs in u64 to jiffies64

Parameters

u64 n: nsecs in u64

Description

Unlike {m,u}secs_to_jiffies, type of input is not unsigned int but u64. And this doesn’t return MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET since this function is designed for scheduler, not for use in device drivers to calculate timeout value.

note

NSEC_PER_SEC = 10^9 = (5^9 * 2^9) = (1953125 * 512) ULLONG_MAX ns = 18446744073.709551615 secs = about 584 years

Return

nsecs converted to jiffies64 value

Parameters

u64 n: nsecs in u64

Description

Unlike {m,u}secs_to_jiffies, type of input is not unsigned int but u64. And this doesn’t return MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET since this function is designed for scheduler, not for use in device drivers to calculate timeout value.

note

NSEC_PER_SEC = 10^9 = (5^9 * 2^9) = (1953125 * 512) ULLONG_MAX ns = 18446744073.709551615 secs = about 584 years

Return

unsigned long __round_jiffies(unsigned long j, int cpu)¶: function to round jiffies to a full second

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (absolute) jiffies that should be rounded
int cpu: the processor number on which the timeout will happen

Description

__round_jiffies() rounds an absolute time in the future (in jiffies) up or down to (approximately) full seconds. This is useful for timers for which the exact time they fire does not matter too much, as long as they fire approximately every X seconds.

By rounding these timers to whole seconds, all such timers will fire at the same time, rather than at various times spread out. The goal of this is to have the CPU wake up less, which saves power.

The exact rounding is skewed for each processor to avoid all processors firing at the exact same time, which could lead to lock contention or spurious cache line bouncing.

The return value is the rounded version of the j parameter.

unsigned long __round_jiffies_relative(unsigned long j, int cpu)¶: function to round jiffies to a full second

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (relative) jiffies that should be rounded
int cpu: the processor number on which the timeout will happen

Description

__round_jiffies_relative() rounds a time delta in the future (in jiffies) up or down to (approximately) full seconds. This is useful for timers for which the exact time they fire does not matter too much, as long as they fire approximately every X seconds.

By rounding these timers to whole seconds, all such timers will fire at the same time, rather than at various times spread out. The goal of this is to have the CPU wake up less, which saves power.

The exact rounding is skewed for each processor to avoid all processors firing at the exact same time, which could lead to lock contention or spurious cache line bouncing.

unsigned long round_jiffies(unsigned long j)¶: function to round jiffies to a full second

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (absolute) jiffies that should be rounded

Description

round_jiffies() rounds an absolute time in the future (in jiffies) up or down to (approximately) full seconds. This is useful for timers for which the exact time they fire does not matter too much, as long as they fire approximately every X seconds.

By rounding these timers to whole seconds, all such timers will fire at the same time, rather than at various times spread out. The goal of this is to have the CPU wake up less, which saves power.

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (relative) jiffies that should be rounded

Description

round_jiffies_relative() rounds a time delta in the future (in jiffies) up or down to (approximately) full seconds. This is useful for timers for which the exact time they fire does not matter too much, as long as they fire approximately every X seconds.

By rounding these timers to whole seconds, all such timers will fire at the same time, rather than at various times spread out. The goal of this is to have the CPU wake up less, which saves power.

The return value is the rounded version of the j parameter.

unsigned long __round_jiffies_up(unsigned long j, int cpu)¶: function to round jiffies up to a full second

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (absolute) jiffies that should be rounded
int cpu: the processor number on which the timeout will happen

Description

This is the same as __round_jiffies() except that it will never round down. This is useful for timeouts for which the exact time of firing does not matter too much, as long as they don’t fire too early.

unsigned long __round_jiffies_up_relative(unsigned long j, int cpu)¶: function to round jiffies up to a full second

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (relative) jiffies that should be rounded
int cpu: the processor number on which the timeout will happen

Description

This is the same as __round_jiffies_relative() except that it will never round down. This is useful for timeouts for which the exact time of firing does not matter too much, as long as they don’t fire too early.

unsigned long round_jiffies_up(unsigned long j)¶: function to round jiffies up to a full second

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (absolute) jiffies that should be rounded

Description

This is the same as round_jiffies() except that it will never round down. This is useful for timeouts for which the exact time of firing does not matter too much, as long as they don’t fire too early.

unsigned long round_jiffies_up_relative(unsigned long j)¶: function to round jiffies up to a full second

Parameters

unsigned long j: the time in (relative) jiffies that should be rounded

Description

This is the same as round_jiffies_relative() except that it will never round down. This is useful for timeouts for which the exact time of firing does not matter too much, as long as they don’t fire too early.

void init_timer_key(struct timer_list *timer, void (*func)(struct timer_list*), unsigned int flags, const char *name, struct lock_class_key *key)¶: initialize a timer

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: the timer to be initialized
void (*func)(struct timer_list *): timer callback function
unsigned int flags: timer flags
const char *name: name of the timer
struct lock_class_key *key: lockdep class key of the fake lock used for tracking timer sync lock dependencies

Description

init_timer_key() must be done to a timer prior to calling any of the other timer functions.

int mod_timer_pending(struct timer_list *timer, unsigned long expires)¶: Modify a pending timer’s timeout

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The pending timer to be modified
unsigned long expires: New absolute timeout in jiffies

Description

mod_timer_pending() is the same for pending timers as mod_timer(), but will not activate inactive timers.

If timer->function == NULL then the start operation is silently discarded.

Return

0 - The timer was inactive and not modified or was in
shutdown state and the operation was discarded
1 - The timer was active and requeued to expire at expires

int mod_timer(struct timer_list *timer, unsigned long expires)¶: Modify a timer’s timeout

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be modified
unsigned long expires: New absolute timeout in jiffies

Description

mod_timer(timer, expires) is equivalent to:

del_timer(timer); timer->expires = expires; add_timer(timer);

mod_timer() is more efficient than the above open coded sequence. In case that the timer is inactive, the del_timer() part is a NOP. The timer is in any case activated with the new expiry time expires.

Note that if there are multiple unserialized concurrent users of the same timer, then mod_timer() is the only safe way to modify the timeout, since add_timer() cannot modify an already running timer.

If timer->function == NULL then the start operation is silently discarded. In this case the return value is 0 and meaningless.

Return

0 - The timer was inactive and started or was in shutdown
state and the operation was discarded
1 - The timer was active and requeued to expire at expires or
the timer was active and not modified because expires did not change the effective expiry time

int timer_reduce(struct timer_list *timer, unsigned long expires)¶: Modify a timer’s timeout if it would reduce the timeout

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be modified
unsigned long expires: New absolute timeout in jiffies

Description

timer_reduce() is very similar to mod_timer(), except that it will only modify an enqueued timer if that would reduce the expiration time. If timer is not enqueued it starts the timer.

If timer->function == NULL then the start operation is silently discarded.

Return

0 - The timer was inactive and started or was in shutdown
state and the operation was discarded
1 - The timer was active and requeued to expire at expires or
the timer was active and not modified because expires did not change the effective expiry time such that the timer would expire earlier than already scheduled

void add_timer(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Start a timer

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be started

Description

Start timer to expire at timer->expires in the future. timer->expires is the absolute expiry time measured in ‘jiffies’. When the timer expires timer->function(timer) will be invoked from soft interrupt context.

The timer->expires and timer->function fields must be set prior to calling this function.

If timer->function == NULL then the start operation is silently discarded.

If timer->expires is already in the past timer will be queued to expire at the next timer tick.

This can only operate on an inactive timer. Attempts to invoke this on an active timer are rejected with a warning.

void add_timer_local(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Start a timer on the local CPU

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be started

Description

Same as add_timer() except that the timer flag TIMER_PINNED is set.

See add_timer() for further details.

void add_timer_global(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Start a timer without TIMER_PINNED flag set

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be started

Description

Same as add_timer() except that the timer flag TIMER_PINNED is unset.

See add_timer() for further details.

void add_timer_on(struct timer_list *timer, int cpu)¶: Start a timer on a particular CPU

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be started
int cpu: The CPU to start it on

Description

Same as add_timer() except that it starts the timer on the given CPU and the TIMER_PINNED flag is set. When timer shouldn’t be a pinned timer in the next round, add_timer_global() should be used instead as it unsets the TIMER_PINNED flag.

See add_timer() for further details.

int timer_delete(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Deactivate a timer

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be deactivated

Description

The function only deactivates a pending timer, but contrary to timer_delete_sync() it does not take into account whether the timer’s callback function is concurrently executed on a different CPU or not. It neither prevents rearming of the timer. If timer can be rearmed concurrently then the return value of this function is meaningless.

Return

0 - The timer was not pending
1 - The timer was pending and deactivated

int timer_shutdown(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Deactivate a timer and prevent rearming

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be deactivated

Description

The function does not wait for an eventually running timer callback on a different CPU but it prevents rearming of the timer. Any attempt to arm timer after this function returns will be silently ignored.

This function is useful for teardown code and should only be used when timer_shutdown_sync() cannot be invoked due to locking or context constraints.

Return

0 - The timer was not pending
1 - The timer was pending

int try_to_del_timer_sync(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Try to deactivate a timer

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: Timer to deactivate

Description

This function tries to deactivate a timer. On success the timer is not queued and the timer callback function is not running on any CPU.

This function does not guarantee that the timer cannot be rearmed right after dropping the base lock. That needs to be prevented by the calling code if necessary.

Return

0 - The timer was not pending
1 - The timer was pending and deactivated
-1 - The timer callback function is running on a different CPU

int timer_delete_sync(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Deactivate a timer and wait for the handler to finish.

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be deactivated

Description

Synchronization rules: Callers must prevent restarting of the timer, otherwise this function is meaningless. It must not be called from interrupt contexts unless the timer is an irqsafe one. The caller must not hold locks which would prevent completion of the timer’s callback function. The timer’s handler must not call add_timer_on(). Upon exit the timer is not queued and the handler is not running on any CPU.

For !irqsafe timers, the caller must not hold locks that are held in interrupt context. Even if the lock has nothing to do with the timer in question. Here’s why:

CPU0                             CPU1
----                             ----
                                 <SOFTIRQ>
                                   call_timer_fn();
                                   base->running_timer = mytimer;
spin_lock_irq(somelock);
                                 <IRQ>
                                    spin_lock(somelock);
timer_delete_sync(mytimer);
while (base->running_timer == mytimer);

Now timer_delete_sync() will never return and never release somelock. The interrupt on the other CPU is waiting to grab somelock but it has interrupted the softirq that CPU0 is waiting to finish.

This function cannot guarantee that the timer is not rearmed again by some concurrent or preempting code, right after it dropped the base lock. If there is the possibility of a concurrent rearm then the return value of the function is meaningless.

If such a guarantee is needed, e.g. for teardown situations then use timer_shutdown_sync() instead.

Return

0 - The timer was not pending
1 - The timer was pending and deactivated

int timer_shutdown_sync(struct timer_list *timer)¶: Shutdown a timer and prevent rearming

Parameters

struct timer_list *timer: The timer to be shutdown

Description

When the function returns it is guaranteed that:

timer is not queued
The callback function of timer is not running
timer cannot be enqueued again. Any attempt to rearm timer is silently ignored.

See timer_delete_sync() for synchronization rules.

This function is useful for final teardown of an infrastructure where the timer is subject to a circular dependency problem.

A common pattern for this is a timer and a workqueue where the timer can schedule work and work can arm the timer. On shutdown the workqueue must be destroyed and the timer must be prevented from rearming. Unless the code has conditionals like ‘if (mything->in_shutdown)’ to prevent that there is no way to get this correct with timer_delete_sync().

timer_shutdown_sync() is solving the problem. The correct ordering of calls in this case is:

timer_shutdown_sync(mything->timer); workqueue_destroy(mything->workqueue);

After this ‘mything’ can be safely freed.

This obviously implies that the timer is not required to be functional for the rest of the shutdown operation.

Return

0 - The timer was not pending
1 - The timer was pending

signed long schedule_timeout(signed long timeout)¶: sleep until timeout

Parameters

signed long timeout: timeout value in jiffies

Description

Make the current task sleep until timeout jiffies have elapsed. The function behavior depends on the current task state (see also set_current_state() description):

TASK_RUNNING - the scheduler is called, but the task does not sleep at all. That happens because sched_submit_work() does nothing for tasks in TASK_RUNNING state.

TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE - at least timeout jiffies are guaranteed to pass before the routine returns unless the current task is explicitly woken up, (e.g. by wake_up_process()).

TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE - the routine may return early if a signal is delivered to the current task or the current task is explicitly woken up.

The current task state is guaranteed to be TASK_RUNNING when this routine returns.

Specifying a timeout value of MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT will schedule the CPU away without a bound on the timeout. In this case the return value will be MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT.

Returns 0 when the timer has expired otherwise the remaining time in jiffies will be returned. In all cases the return value is guaranteed to be non-negative.

void msleep(unsigned int msecs)¶: sleep safely even with waitqueue interruptions

Parameters

unsigned int msecs: Time in milliseconds to sleep for

unsigned long msleep_interruptible(unsigned int msecs)¶: sleep waiting for signals

Parameters

unsigned int msecs: Time in milliseconds to sleep for

void usleep_range_state(unsigned long min, unsigned long max, unsigned int state)¶: Sleep for an approximate time in a given state

Parameters

unsigned long min: Minimum time in usecs to sleep
unsigned long max: Maximum time in usecs to sleep
unsigned int state: State of the current task that will be while sleeping

Description

In non-atomic context where the exact wakeup time is flexible, use usleep_range_state() instead of udelay(). The sleep improves responsiveness by avoiding the CPU-hogging busy-wait of udelay(), and the range reduces power usage by allowing hrtimers to take advantage of an already- scheduled interrupt instead of scheduling a new one just for this sleep.

Parameters

struct hrtimer *timer: the timer to be added
ktime_t tim: expiry time
const enum hrtimer_mode mode: timer mode: absolute (HRTIMER_MODE_ABS) or relative (HRTIMER_MODE_REL), and pinned (HRTIMER_MODE_PINNED); softirq based mode is considered for debug purpose only!

True if the timer is queued, false otherwise

Description

The function can be used lockless, but it gives only a current snapshot.

u64 hrtimer_forward_now(struct hrtimer *timer, ktime_t interval)¶: forward the timer expiry so it expires after now

Parameters

struct hrtimer *timer: hrtimer to forward
ktime_t interval: the interval to forward

Description

It is a variant of hrtimer_forward(). The timer will expire after the current time of the hrtimer clock base. See hrtimer_forward() for details.

Note

This only updates the timer expiry value and does not requeue the timer.

There is also a variant of the function hrtimer_forward_now().

Context

Can be safely called from the callback function of timer. If called from other contexts timer must neither be enqueued nor running the callback and the caller needs to take care of serialization.

int schedule_hrtimeout_range(ktime_t *expires, u64 delta, const enum hrtimer_mode mode)¶: sleep until timeout

Parameters

ktime_t *expires: timeout value (ktime_t)
u64 delta: slack in expires timeout (ktime_t) for SCHED_OTHER tasks
const enum hrtimer_mode mode: timer mode

Description

Make the current task sleep until the given expiry time has elapsed. The routine will return immediately unless the current task state has been set (see set_current_state()).

The delta argument gives the kernel the freedom to schedule the actual wakeup to a time that is both power and performance friendly for regular (non RT/DL) tasks. The kernel give the normal best effort behavior for “expires**+**delta”, but may decide to fire the timer earlier, but no earlier than expires.

You can set the task state as follows -

TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE - at least timeout time is guaranteed to pass before the routine returns unless the current task is explicitly woken up, (e.g. by wake_up_process()).

TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE - the routine may return early if a signal is delivered to the current task or the current task is explicitly woken up.

The current task state is guaranteed to be TASK_RUNNING when this routine returns.

Returns 0 when the timer has expired. If the task was woken before the timer expired by a signal (only possible in state TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) or by an explicit wakeup, it returns -EINTR.

int schedule_hrtimeout(ktime_t *expires, const enum hrtimer_mode mode)¶: sleep until timeout

Parameters

ktime_t *expires: timeout value (ktime_t)
const enum hrtimer_mode mode: timer mode

Description

Make the current task sleep until the given expiry time has elapsed. The routine will return immediately unless the current task state has been set (see set_current_state()).

You can set the task state as follows -

TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE - at least timeout time is guaranteed to pass before the routine returns unless the current task is explicitly woken up, (e.g. by wake_up_process()).

TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE - the routine may return early if a signal is delivered to the current task or the current task is explicitly woken up.

The current task state is guaranteed to be TASK_RUNNING when this routine returns.

Returns 0 when the timer has expired. If the task was woken before the timer expired by a signal (only possible in state TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) or by an explicit wakeup, it returns -EINTR.

Wait queues and Wake events¶

int waitqueue_active(struct wait_queue_head *wq_head)¶

locklessly test for waiters on the queue

Parameters

struct wait_queue_head *wq_head: the waitqueue to test for waiters

Description

returns true if the wait list is not empty

Use either while holding wait_queue_head::lock or when used for wakeups with an extra smp_mb() like:

CPU0 - waker                    CPU1 - waiter

                                for (;;) {
@cond = true;                     prepare_to_wait(&wq_head, &wait, state);
smp_mb();                         // smp_mb() from set_current_state()
if (waitqueue_active(wq_head))         if (@cond)
  wake_up(wq_head);                      break;
                                  schedule();
                                }
                                finish_wait(&wq_head, &wait);

Because without the explicit smp_mb() it’s possible for the waitqueue_active() load to get hoisted over the cond store such that we’ll observe an empty wait list while the waiter might not observe cond.

Also note that this ‘optimization’ trades a spin_lock() for an smp_mb(), which (when the lock is uncontended) are of roughly equal cost.

NOTE

this function is lockless and requires care, incorrect usage _will_ lead to sporadic and non-obvious failure.

wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq (wq_head, condition, lock)

sleep until a condition gets true. The condition is checked under the lock. This is expected to be called with the lock taken.

Parameters

wq_head: the waitqueue to wait on
condition: a C expression for the event to wait for
lock: a locked spinlock_t, which will be released before schedule() and reacquired afterwards.

Description

The process is put to sleep (TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) until the condition evaluates to true or signal is received. The condition is checked each time the waitqueue wq_head is woken up.

wake_up() has to be called after changing any variable that could change the result of the wait condition.

This is supposed to be called while holding the lock. The lock is dropped before going to sleep and is reacquired afterwards.

The macro will return -ERESTARTSYS if it was interrupted by a signal and 0 if condition evaluated to true.

wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout¶

wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout (wq_head, condition, lock, timeout)

sleep until a condition gets true or a timeout elapses. The condition is checked under the lock. This is expected to be called with the lock taken.

Parameters

wq_head: the waitqueue to wait on
condition: a C expression for the event to wait for
lock: a locked spinlock_t, which will be released before schedule() and reacquired afterwards.
timeout: timeout, in jiffies

Description

The process is put to sleep (TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) until the condition evaluates to true or signal is received. The condition is checked each time the waitqueue wq_head is woken up.

wake_up() has to be called after changing any variable that could change the result of the wait condition.

This is supposed to be called while holding the lock. The lock is dropped before going to sleep and is reacquired afterwards.

The function returns 0 if the timeout elapsed, -ERESTARTSYS if it was interrupted by a signal, and the remaining jiffies otherwise if the condition evaluated to true before the timeout elapsed.

int __wake_up(struct wait_queue_head *wq_head, unsigned int mode, int nr_exclusive, void *key)¶: wake up threads blocked on a waitqueue.

Parameters

struct wait_queue_head *wq_head: the waitqueue
unsigned int mode: which threads
int nr_exclusive: how many wake-one or wake-many threads to wake up
void *key: is directly passed to the wakeup function

Description

If this function wakes up a task, it executes a full memory barrier before accessing the task state. Returns the number of exclusive tasks that were awaken.

void __wake_up_sync_key(struct wait_queue_head *wq_head, unsigned int mode, void *key)¶: wake up threads blocked on a waitqueue.

Parameters

struct wait_queue_head *wq_head: the waitqueue
unsigned int mode: which threads
void *key: opaque value to be passed to wakeup targets

Description

The sync wakeup differs that the waker knows that it will schedule away soon, so while the target thread will be woken up, it will not be migrated to another CPU - ie. the two threads are ‘synchronized’ with each other. This can prevent needless bouncing between CPUs.

On UP it can prevent extra preemption.

If this function wakes up a task, it executes a full memory barrier before accessing the task state.

void __wake_up_locked_sync_key(struct wait_queue_head *wq_head, unsigned int mode, void *key)¶: wake up a thread blocked on a locked waitqueue.

Parameters

struct wait_queue_head *wq_head: the waitqueue
unsigned int mode: which threads
void *key: opaque value to be passed to wakeup targets

Description

The sync wakeup differs in that the waker knows that it will schedule away soon, so while the target thread will be woken up, it will not be migrated to another CPU - ie. the two threads are ‘synchronized’ with each other. This can prevent needless bouncing between CPUs.

On UP it can prevent extra preemption.

If this function wakes up a task, it executes a full memory barrier before accessing the task state.

void finish_wait(struct wait_queue_head *wq_head, struct wait_queue_entry *wq_entry)¶: clean up after waiting in a queue

Parameters

struct wait_queue_head *wq_head: waitqueue waited on
struct wait_queue_entry *wq_entry: wait descriptor

Description

Sets current thread back to running state and removes the wait descriptor from the given waitqueue if still queued.

Internal Functions¶

int wait_task_stopped(struct wait_opts *wo, int ptrace, struct task_struct *p)¶: Wait for TASK_STOPPED or TASK_TRACED

Parameters

struct wait_opts *wo: wait options
int ptrace: is the wait for ptrace
struct task_struct *p: task to wait for

Description

Handle sys_wait4() work for p in state TASK_STOPPED or TASK_TRACED.

Context

read_lock(tasklist_lock), which is released if return value is non-zero. Also, grabs and releases p->sighand->siglock.

Return

0 if wait condition didn’t exist and search for other wait conditions should continue. Non-zero return, -errno on failure and p’s pid on success, implies that tasklist_lock is released and wait condition search should terminate.

bool task_set_jobctl_pending(struct task_struct *task, unsigned long mask)¶: set jobctl pending bits

Parameters

struct task_struct *task: target task
unsigned long mask: pending bits to set

Description

Clear mask from task->jobctl. mask must be subset of JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK | JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME | JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK | JOBCTL_TRAPPING. If stop signo is being set, the existing signo is cleared. If task is already being killed or exiting, this function becomes noop.

Context

Must be called with task->sighand->siglock held.

Return

true if mask is set, false if made noop because task was dying.

void task_clear_jobctl_trapping(struct task_struct *task)¶: clear jobctl trapping bit

Parameters

struct task_struct *task: target task

Description

If JOBCTL_TRAPPING is set, a ptracer is waiting for us to enter TRACED. Clear it and wake up the ptracer. Note that we don’t need any further locking. task->siglock guarantees that task->parent points to the ptracer.

Context

Must be called with task->sighand->siglock held.

void task_clear_jobctl_pending(struct task_struct *task, unsigned long mask)¶: clear jobctl pending bits

Parameters

struct task_struct *task: target task
unsigned long mask: pending bits to clear

Description

Clear mask from task->jobctl. mask must be subset of JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK. If JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING is being cleared, other STOP bits are cleared together.

If clearing of mask leaves no stop or trap pending, this function calls task_clear_jobctl_trapping().

Context

Must be called with task->sighand->siglock held.

bool task_participate_group_stop(struct task_struct *task)¶: participate in a group stop

Parameters

struct task_struct *task: task participating in a group stop

Description

task has JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING set and is participating in a group stop. Group stop states are cleared and the group stop count is consumed if JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME was set. If the consumption completes the group stop, the appropriate SIGNAL_* flags are set.

Context

Must be called with task->sighand->siglock held.

Return

true if group stop completion should be notified to the parent, false otherwise.

void ptrace_trap_notify(struct task_struct *t)¶: schedule trap to notify ptracer

Parameters

struct task_struct *t: tracee wanting to notify tracer

Description

This function schedules sticky ptrace trap which is cleared on the next TRAP_STOP to notify ptracer of an event. t must have been seized by ptracer.

If t is running, STOP trap will be taken. If trapped for STOP and ptracer is listening for events, tracee is woken up so that it can re-trap for the new event. If trapped otherwise, STOP trap will be eventually taken without returning to userland after the existing traps are finished by PTRACE_CONT.

Context

Must be called with task->sighand->siglock held.

int force_sig_seccomp(int syscall, int reason, bool force_coredump)¶: signals the task to allow in-process syscall emulation

Parameters

int syscall: syscall number to send to userland
int reason: filter-supplied reason code to send to userland (via si_errno)
bool force_coredump: true to trigger a coredump

Description

Forces a SIGSYS with a code of SYS_SECCOMP and related sigsys info.

void do_notify_parent_cldstop(struct task_struct *tsk, bool for_ptracer, int why)¶: notify parent of stopped/continued state change

Parameters

struct task_struct *tsk: task reporting the state change
bool for_ptracer: the notification is for ptracer
int why: CLD_{CONTINUED|STOPPED|TRAPPED} to report

Description

Notify tsk’s parent that the stopped/continued state has changed. If for_ptracer is false, tsk’s group leader notifies to its real parent. If true, tsk reports to tsk->parent which should be the ptracer.

Context

Must be called with tasklist_lock at least read locked.

bool do_signal_stop(int signr)¶: handle group stop for SIGSTOP and other stop signals

Parameters

int signr: signr causing group stop if initiating

Description

If JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING is not set yet, initiate group stop with signr and participate in it. If already set, participate in the existing group stop. If participated in a group stop (and thus slept), true is returned with siglock released.

If ptraced, this function doesn’t handle stop itself. Instead, JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP is scheduled and false is returned with siglock untouched. The caller must ensure that INTERRUPT trap handling takes places afterwards.

Context

Must be called with current->sighand->siglock held, which is released on true return.

Return

false if group stop is already cancelled or ptrace trap is scheduled. true if participated in group stop.

void do_jobctl_trap(void)¶: take care of ptrace jobctl traps

Parameters

void: no arguments

Description

When PT_SEIZED, it’s used for both group stop and explicit SEIZE/INTERRUPT traps. Both generate PTRACE_EVENT_STOP trap with accompanying siginfo. If stopped, lower eight bits of exit_code contain the stop signal; otherwise, SIGTRAP.

When !PT_SEIZED, it’s used only for group stop trap with stop signal number as exit_code and no siginfo.

Context

Must be called with current->sighand->siglock held, which may be released and re-acquired before returning with intervening sleep.

void do_freezer_trap(void)¶: handle the freezer jobctl trap

Parameters

void: no arguments

Description

Puts the task into frozen state, if only the task is not about to quit. In this case it drops JOBCTL_TRAP_FREEZE.

Context

Must be called with current->sighand->siglock held, which is always released before returning.

void signal_delivered(struct ksignal *ksig, int stepping)¶: called after signal delivery to update blocked signals

Parameters

struct ksignal *ksig: kernel signal struct
int stepping: nonzero if debugger single-step or block-step in use

Description

This function should be called when a signal has successfully been delivered. It updates the blocked signals accordingly (ksig->ka.sa.sa_mask is always blocked), and the signal itself is blocked unless SA_NODEFER is set in ksig->ka.sa.sa_flags. Tracing is notified.

long sys_restart_syscall(void)¶: restart a system call

Parameters

void: no arguments

void set_current_blocked(sigset_t *newset)¶: change current->blocked mask

Parameters

sigset_t *newset: new mask

Description

It is wrong to change ->blocked directly, this helper should be used to ensure the process can’t miss a shared signal we are going to block.

long sys_rt_sigprocmask(int how, sigset_t __user *nset, sigset_t __user *oset, size_t sigsetsize)¶: change the list of currently blocked signals

Parameters

int how: whether to add, remove, or set signals
sigset_t __user * nset: stores pending signals
sigset_t __user * oset: previous value of signal mask if non-null
size_t sigsetsize: size of sigset_t type

long sys_rt_sigpending(sigset_t __user *uset, size_t sigsetsize)¶: examine a pending signal that has been raised while blocked

Parameters

sigset_t __user * uset: stores pending signals
size_t sigsetsize: size of sigset_t type or larger

void copy_siginfo_to_external32(struct compat_siginfo *to, const struct kernel_siginfo *from)¶: copy a kernel siginfo into a compat user siginfo

Parameters

struct compat_siginfo *to: compat siginfo destination
const struct kernel_siginfo *from: kernel siginfo source

Note

This function does not work properly for the SIGCHLD on x32, but fortunately it doesn’t have to. The only valid callers for this function are copy_siginfo_to_user32, which is overriden for x32 and the coredump code. The latter does not care because SIGCHLD will never cause a coredump.

int do_sigtimedwait(const sigset_t *which, kernel_siginfo_t *info, const struct timespec64 *ts)¶: wait for queued signals specified in which

Parameters

const sigset_t *which: queued signals to wait for
kernel_siginfo_t *info: if non-null, the signal’s siginfo is returned here
const struct timespec64 *ts: upper bound on process time suspension

long sys_rt_sigtimedwait(const sigset_t __user *uthese, siginfo_t __user *uinfo, const struct __kernel_timespec __user *uts, size_t sigsetsize)¶: synchronously wait for queued signals specified in uthese

Parameters

const sigset_t __user * uthese: queued signals to wait for
siginfo_t __user * uinfo: if non-null, the signal’s siginfo is returned here
const struct __kernel_timespec __user * uts: upper bound on process time suspension

int sig: signal to be sent

long sys_pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t __user *info, unsigned int flags)¶: Signal a process through a pidfd

Parameters

int pidfd: file descriptor of the process
int sig: signal to send
siginfo_t __user * info: signal info
unsigned int flags: future flags

Description

Send the signal to the thread group or to the individual thread depending on PIDFD_THREAD. In the future extension to flags may be used to override the default scope of pidfd.

Return

0 on success, negative errno on failure

long sys_tgkill(pid_t tgid, pid_t pid, int sig)¶: send signal to one specific thread

Parameters

pid_t tgid

the thread group ID of the thread

pid_t pid

the PID of the thread

int sig

signal to be sent

This syscall also checks the tgid and returns -ESRCH even if the PID exists but it’s not belonging to the target process anymore. This method solves the problem of threads exiting and PIDs getting reused.

long sys_tkill(pid_t pid, int sig)¶: send signal to one specific task

Parameters

pid_t pid

the PID of the task

int sig

signal to be sent

Send a signal to only one task, even if it’s a CLONE_THREAD task.

old_sigset_t __user * nset: signals to add or remove (if non-null)
old_sigset_t __user * oset: previous value of signal mask if non-null

Description

Some platforms have their own version with special arguments; others support only sys_rt_sigprocmask.

Parameters

int sig: signal to be sent
const struct sigaction __user * act: new sigaction

size_t sigsetsize: size of sigset_t type

kthread_create¶

kthread_create (threadfn, data, namefmt, arg...)

create a kthread on the current node

Parameters

threadfn: the function to run in the thread
data: data pointer for threadfn()
namefmt: printf-style format string for the thread name
arg...: arguments for namefmt.

Description

This macro will create a kthread on the current node, leaving it in the stopped state. This is just a helper for kthread_create_on_node(); see the documentation there for more details.

kthread_run¶

kthread_run (threadfn, data, namefmt, ...)

create and wake a thread.

Parameters

threadfn: the function to run until signal_pending(current).
data: data ptr for threadfn.
namefmt: printf-style name for the thread.
...: variable arguments

Description

Convenient wrapper for kthread_create() followed by wake_up_process(). Returns the kthread or ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM).

struct task_struct *kthread_run_on_cpu(int (*threadfn)(void *data), void *data, unsigned int cpu, const char *namefmt)¶: create and wake a cpu bound thread.

Parameters

int (*threadfn)(void *data): the function to run until signal_pending(current).
void *data: data ptr for threadfn.
unsigned int cpu: The cpu on which the thread should be bound,
const char *namefmt: printf-style name for the thread. Format is restricted to “name.*``u``”. Code fills in cpu number.

Description

Convenient wrapper for kthread_create_on_cpu() followed by wake_up_process(). Returns the kthread or ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM).

bool kthread_should_stop(void)¶: should this kthread return now?

Parameters

void: no arguments

Description

When someone calls kthread_stop() on your kthread, it will be woken and this will return true. You should then return, and your return value will be passed through to kthread_stop().

bool kthread_should_park(void)¶: should this kthread park now?

Parameters

void: no arguments

Description

When someone calls kthread_park() on your kthread, it will be woken and this will return true. You should then do the necessary cleanup and call kthread_parkme()

Similar to kthread_should_stop(), but this keeps the thread alive and in a park position. kthread_unpark() “restarts” the thread and calls the thread function again.

bool kthread_freezable_should_stop(bool *was_frozen)¶: should this freezable kthread return now?

Parameters

bool *was_frozen: optional out parameter, indicates whether current was frozen

Description

kthread_should_stop() for freezable kthreads, which will enter refrigerator if necessary. This function is safe from kthread_stop() / freezer deadlock and freezable kthreads should use this function instead of calling try_to_freeze() directly.

void *kthread_func(struct task_struct *task)¶: return the function specified on kthread creation

Parameters

struct task_struct *task: kthread task in question

Description

Returns NULL if the task is not a kthread.

void *kthread_data(struct task_struct *task)¶: return data value specified on kthread creation

Parameters

struct task_struct *task: kthread task in question

Description

Return the data value specified when kthread task was created. The caller is responsible for ensuring the validity of task when calling this function.

void __noreturn kthread_exit(long result)¶: Cause the current kthread return result to kthread_stop().

Parameters

long result: The integer value to return to kthread_stop().

Description

While kthread_exit can be called directly, it exists so that functions which do some additional work in non-modular code such as module_put_and_kthread_exit can be implemented.

Does not return.

void __noreturn kthread_complete_and_exit(struct completion *comp, long code)¶: Exit the current kthread.

Parameters

struct completion *comp: Completion to complete
long code: The integer value to return to kthread_stop().

Description

If present, complete comp and then return code to kthread_stop().

A kernel thread whose module may be removed after the completion of comp can use this function to exit safely.

Does not return.

struct task_struct *kthread_create_on_node(int (*threadfn)(void *data), void *data, int node, const char namefmt[], ...)¶: create a kthread.

Parameters

int (*threadfn)(void *data): the function to run until signal_pending(current).
void *data: data ptr for threadfn.
int node: task and thread structures for the thread are allocated on this node
const char namefmt[]: printf-style name for the thread.
...: variable arguments

Description

This helper function creates and names a kernel thread. The thread will be stopped: use wake_up_process() to start it. See also kthread_run(). The new thread has SCHED_NORMAL policy and is affine to all CPUs.

If thread is going to be bound on a particular cpu, give its node in node, to get NUMA affinity for kthread stack, or else give NUMA_NO_NODE. When woken, the thread will run threadfn() with data as its argument. threadfn() can either return directly if it is a standalone thread for which no one will call kthread_stop(), or return when ‘kthread_should_stop()’ is true (which means kthread_stop() has been called). The return value should be zero or a negative error number; it will be passed to kthread_stop().

Returns a task_struct or ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) or ERR_PTR(-EINTR).

void kthread_bind(struct task_struct *p, unsigned int cpu)¶: bind a just-created kthread to a cpu.

Parameters

struct task_struct *p: thread created by kthread_create().
unsigned int cpu: cpu (might not be online, must be possible) for k to run on.

Description

This function is equivalent to set_cpus_allowed(), except that cpu doesn’t need to be online, and the thread must be stopped (i.e., just returned from kthread_create()).

struct task_struct *kthread_create_on_cpu(int (*threadfn)(void *data), void *data, unsigned int cpu, const char *namefmt)¶: Create a cpu bound kthread

Parameters

int (*threadfn)(void *data): the function to run until signal_pending(current).
void *data: data ptr for threadfn.
unsigned int cpu: The cpu on which the thread should be bound,
const char *namefmt: printf-style name for the thread. Format is restricted to “name.*``u``”. Code fills in cpu number.

Description

This helper function creates and names a kernel thread

void kthread_unpark(struct task_struct *k)¶: unpark a thread created by kthread_create().

Parameters

struct task_struct *k: thread created by kthread_create().

Description

Sets kthread_should_park() for k to return false, wakes it, and waits for it to return. If the thread is marked percpu then its bound to the cpu again.

int kthread_park(struct task_struct *k)¶: park a thread created by kthread_create().

Parameters

struct task_struct *k: thread created by kthread_create().

Description

Sets kthread_should_park() for k to return true, wakes it, and waits for it to return. This can also be called after kthread_create() instead of calling wake_up_process(): the thread will park without calling threadfn().

Returns 0 if the thread is parked, -ENOSYS if the thread exited. If called by the kthread itself just the park bit is set.

int kthread_stop(struct task_struct *k)¶: stop a thread created by kthread_create().

Parameters

struct task_struct *k: thread created by kthread_create().

Description

Sets kthread_should_stop() for k to return true, wakes it, and waits for it to exit. This can also be called after kthread_create() instead of calling wake_up_process(): the thread will exit without calling threadfn().

If threadfn() may call kthread_exit() itself, the caller must ensure task_struct can’t go away.

Returns the result of threadfn(), or -EINTR if wake_up_process() was never called.

int kthread_stop_put(struct task_struct *k)¶: stop a thread and put its task struct

Parameters

struct task_struct *k: thread created by kthread_create().

Description

Stops a thread created by kthread_create() and put its task_struct. Only use when holding an extra task struct reference obtained by calling get_task_struct().

int kthread_worker_fn(void *worker_ptr)¶: kthread function to process kthread_worker

Parameters

void *worker_ptr: pointer to initialized kthread_worker

Description

This function implements the main cycle of kthread worker. It processes work_list until it is stopped with kthread_stop(). It sleeps when the queue is empty.

The works are not allowed to keep any locks, disable preemption or interrupts when they finish. There is defined a safe point for freezing when one work finishes and before a new one is started.

Also the works must not be handled by more than one worker at the same time, see also kthread_queue_work().

struct kthread_worker *kthread_create_worker(unsigned int flags, const char namefmt[], ...)¶: create a kthread worker

Parameters

unsigned int flags: flags modifying the default behavior of the worker
const char namefmt[]: printf-style name for the kthread worker (task).
...: variable arguments

Description

Returns a pointer to the allocated worker on success, ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) when the needed structures could not get allocated, and ERR_PTR(-EINTR) when the caller was killed by a fatal signal.

struct kthread_worker *kthread_create_worker_on_cpu(int cpu, unsigned int flags, const char namefmt[], ...)¶: create a kthread worker and bind it to a given CPU and the associated NUMA node.

Parameters

int cpu: CPU number
unsigned int flags: flags modifying the default behavior of the worker
const char namefmt[]: printf-style name for the kthread worker (task).
...: variable arguments

Description

Use a valid CPU number if you want to bind the kthread worker to the given CPU and the associated NUMA node.

A good practice is to add the cpu number also into the worker name. For example, use kthread_create_worker_on_cpu(cpu, “helper/d”, cpu).

CPU hotplug: The kthread worker API is simple and generic. It just provides a way to create, use, and destroy workers.

It is up to the API user how to handle CPU hotplug. They have to decide how to handle pending work items, prevent queuing new ones, and restore the functionality when the CPU goes off and on. There are a few catches:

CPU affinity gets lost when it is scheduled on an offline CPU.

The worker might not exist when the CPU was off when the user created the workers.

Good practice is to implement two CPU hotplug callbacks and to destroy/create the worker when the CPU goes down/up.

Return

The pointer to the allocated worker on success, ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) when the needed structures could not get allocated, and ERR_PTR(-EINTR) when the caller was killed by a fatal signal.

bool kthread_queue_work(struct kthread_worker *worker, struct kthread_work *work)¶: queue a kthread_work

Parameters

struct kthread_worker *worker: target kthread_worker
struct kthread_work *work: kthread_work to queue

Description

Queue work to work processor task for async execution. task must have been created with kthread_worker_create(). Returns true if work was successfully queued, false if it was already pending.

Reinitialize the work if it needs to be used by another worker. For example, when the worker was stopped and started again.

void kthread_delayed_work_timer_fn(struct timer_list *t)¶: callback that queues the associated kthread delayed work when the timer expires.

Parameters

struct timer_list *t: pointer to the expired timer

Description

The format of the function is defined by struct timer_list. It should have been called from irqsafe timer with irq already off.

bool kthread_queue_delayed_work(struct kthread_worker *worker, struct kthread_delayed_work *dwork, unsigned long delay)¶: queue the associated kthread work after a delay.

Parameters

struct kthread_worker *worker: target kthread_worker
struct kthread_delayed_work *dwork: kthread_delayed_work to queue
unsigned long delay: number of jiffies to wait before queuing

Description

If the work has not been pending it starts a timer that will queue the work after the given delay. If delay is zero, it queues the work immediately.

Return

false if the work has already been pending. It means that either the timer was running or the work was queued. It returns true otherwise.

void kthread_flush_work(struct kthread_work *work)¶: flush a kthread_work

Parameters

struct kthread_work *work: work to flush

Description

If work is queued or executing, wait for it to finish execution.

bool kthread_mod_delayed_work(struct kthread_worker *worker, struct kthread_delayed_work *dwork, unsigned long delay)¶: modify delay of or queue a kthread delayed work

Parameters

struct kthread_worker *worker: kthread worker to use
struct kthread_delayed_work *dwork: kthread delayed work to queue
unsigned long delay: number of jiffies to wait before queuing

Description

If dwork is idle, equivalent to kthread_queue_delayed_work(). Otherwise, modify dwork’s timer so that it expires after delay. If delay is zero, work is guaranteed to be queued immediately.

A special case is when the work is being canceled in parallel. It might be caused either by the real kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() or yet another kthread_mod_delayed_work() call. We let the other command win and return true here. The return value can be used for reference counting and the number of queued works stays the same. Anyway, the caller is supposed to synchronize these operations a reasonable way.

This function is safe to call from any context including IRQ handler. See __kthread_cancel_work() and kthread_delayed_work_timer_fn() for details.

Return

false if dwork was idle and queued, true otherwise.

bool kthread_cancel_work_sync(struct kthread_work *work)¶: cancel a kthread work and wait for it to finish

Parameters

struct kthread_work *work: the kthread work to cancel

Description

Cancel work and wait for its execution to finish. This function can be used even if the work re-queues itself. On return from this function, work is guaranteed to be not pending or executing on any CPU.

kthread_cancel_work_sync(delayed_work->work) must not be used for delayed_work’s. Use kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() instead.

The caller must ensure that the worker on which work was last queued can’t be destroyed before this function returns.

Return

true if work was pending, false otherwise.

bool kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync(struct kthread_delayed_work *dwork)¶: cancel a kthread delayed work and wait for it to finish.

void kthread_destroy_worker(struct kthread_worker *worker)¶: destroy a kthread worker

Parameters

struct kthread_worker *worker: worker to be destroyed

Description

Flush and destroy worker. The simple flush is enough because the kthread worker API is used only in trivial scenarios. There are no multi-step state machines needed.

Reference counting¶

void refcount_set(refcount_t *r, int n)¶: set a refcount’s value

Parameters

Parameters

int i: the value to add to the refcount
refcount_t *r: the refcount

Description

Will saturate at REFCOUNT_SATURATED and WARN.

Provides no memory ordering, it is assumed the caller has guaranteed the object memory to be stable (RCU, etc.). It does provide a control dependency and thereby orders future stores. See the comment on top.

Use of this function is not recommended for the normal reference counting use case in which references are taken and released one at a time. In these cases, refcount_inc(), or one of its variants, should instead be used to increment a reference count.

Return

false if the passed refcount is 0, true otherwise

void refcount_add(int i, refcount_t *r)¶: add a value to a refcount

Parameters

int i: the value to add to the refcount

void refcount_inc(refcount_t *r)¶: increment a refcount

Parameters

refcount_t *r: the refcount to increment

Description

Similar to atomic_inc(), but will saturate at REFCOUNT_SATURATED and WARN.

Provides release memory ordering, such that prior loads and stores are done before, and provides an acquire ordering on success such that free() must come after.

Use of this function is not recommended for the normal reference counting use case in which references are taken and released one at a time. In these cases, refcount_dec(), or one of its variants, should instead be used to decrement a reference count.

bool refcount_dec_if_one(refcount_t *r)¶: decrement a refcount if it is 1

Parameters

refcount_t *r: the refcount

Description

No atomic_t counterpart, it attempts a 1 -> 0 transition and returns the success thereof.

Like all decrement operations, it provides release memory order and provides a control dependency.

It can be used like a try-delete operator; this explicit case is provided and not cmpxchg in generic, because that would allow implementing unsafe operations.

Return

true if the resulting refcount is 0, false otherwise

bool refcount_dec_not_one(refcount_t *r)¶: decrement a refcount if it is not 1

Parameters

Kernel objects manipulation¶

char *kobject_get_path(const struct kobject *kobj, gfp_t gfp_mask)¶: Allocate memory and fill in the path for kobj.

Parameters

const struct kobject *kobj: kobject in question, with which to build the path
gfp_t gfp_mask: the allocation type used to allocate the path

Return

The newly allocated memory, caller must free with kfree().

int kobject_set_name(struct kobject *kobj, const char *fmt, ...)¶: Set the name of a kobject.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: struct kobject to set the name of
const char *fmt: format string used to build the name
...: variable arguments

Description

This sets the name of the kobject. If you have already added the kobject to the system, you must call kobject_rename() in order to change the name of the kobject.

void kobject_init(struct kobject *kobj, const struct kobj_type *ktype)¶: Initialize a kobject structure.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: pointer to the kobject to initialize
const struct kobj_type *ktype: pointer to the ktype for this kobject.

Description

This function will properly initialize a kobject such that it can then be passed to the kobject_add() call.

After this function is called, the kobject MUST be cleaned up by a call to kobject_put(), not by a call to kfree directly to ensure that all of the memory is cleaned up properly.

int kobject_add(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobject *parent, const char *fmt, ...)¶: The main kobject add function.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: the kobject to add
struct kobject *parent: pointer to the parent of the kobject.
const char *fmt: format to name the kobject with.
...: variable arguments

Description

The kobject name is set and added to the kobject hierarchy in this function.

If parent is set, then the parent of the kobj will be set to it. If parent is NULL, then the parent of the kobj will be set to the kobject associated with the kset assigned to this kobject. If no kset is assigned to the kobject, then the kobject will be located in the root of the sysfs tree.

Note, no “add” uevent will be created with this call, the caller should set up all of the necessary sysfs files for the object and then call kobject_uevent() with the UEVENT_ADD parameter to ensure that userspace is properly notified of this kobject’s creation.

Return

If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be

called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Under no instance should the kobject that is passed to this function be directly freed with a call to kfree(), that can leak memory.

If this function returns success, kobject_put() must also be called in order to properly clean up the memory associated with the object.

In short, once this function is called, kobject_put() MUST be called when the use of the object is finished in order to properly free everything.

int kobject_init_and_add(struct kobject *kobj, const struct kobj_type *ktype, struct kobject *parent, const char *fmt, ...)¶: Initialize a kobject structure and add it to the kobject hierarchy.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: pointer to the kobject to initialize
const struct kobj_type *ktype: pointer to the ktype for this kobject.
struct kobject *parent: pointer to the parent of this kobject.
const char *fmt: the name of the kobject.
...: variable arguments

Description

This function combines the call to kobject_init() and kobject_add().

If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. This is the same type of error handling after a call to kobject_add() and kobject lifetime rules are the same here.

int kobject_rename(struct kobject *kobj, const char *new_name)¶: Change the name of an object.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: object in question.
const char *new_name: object’s new name

Description

It is the responsibility of the caller to provide mutual exclusion between two different calls of kobject_rename on the same kobject and to ensure that new_name is valid and won’t conflict with other kobjects.

int kobject_move(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobject *new_parent)¶: Move object to another parent.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: object in question.
struct kobject *new_parent: object’s new parent (can be NULL)

void kobject_del(struct kobject *kobj)¶: Unlink kobject from hierarchy.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: object.

Description

This is the function that should be called to delete an object successfully added via kobject_add().

struct kobject *kobject_get(struct kobject *kobj)¶: Increment refcount for object.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: object.

void kobject_put(struct kobject *kobj)¶: Decrement refcount for object.

Parameters

struct kobject *kobj: object.

Description

Decrement the refcount, and if 0, call kobject_cleanup().

struct kobject *kobject_create_and_add(const char *name, struct kobject *parent)¶: Create a struct kobject dynamically and register it with sysfs.

Parameters

const char *name: the name for the kobject
struct kobject *parent: the parent kobject of this kobject, if any.

Description

This function creates a kobject structure dynamically and registers it with sysfs. When you are finished with this structure, call kobject_put() and the structure will be dynamically freed when it is no longer being used.

If the kobject was not able to be created, NULL will be returned.

int kset_register(struct kset *k)¶: Initialize and add a kset.

Parameters

struct kset *k: kset.

NOTE

On error, the kset.kobj.name allocated by() kobj_set_name() is freed, it can not be used any more.

void kset_unregister(struct kset *k)¶: Remove a kset.

Parameters

struct kset *k: kset.

struct kobject *kset_find_obj(struct kset *kset, const char *name)¶: Search for object in kset.

Parameters

struct kset *kset: kset we’re looking in.
const char *name: object’s name.

Description

Lock kset via kset->subsys, and iterate over kset->list, looking for a matching kobject. If matching object is found take a reference and return the object.

struct kset *kset_create_and_add(const char *name, const struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops, struct kobject *parent_kobj)¶: Create a struct kset dynamically and add it to sysfs.

Parameters

const char *name: the name for the kset
const struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops: a struct kset_uevent_ops for the kset
struct kobject *parent_kobj: the parent kobject of this kset, if any.

Description

This function creates a kset structure dynamically and registers it with sysfs. When you are finished with this structure, call kset_unregister() and the structure will be dynamically freed when it is no longer being used.

If the kset was not able to be created, NULL will be returned.

Kernel utility functions¶

might_sleep¶

might_sleep ()

annotation for functions that can sleep

Parameters

Description

this macro will print a stack trace if it is executed in an atomic context (spinlock, irq-handler, ...). Additional sections where blocking is not allowed can be annotated with non_block_start() and non_block_end() pairs.

This is a useful debugging help to be able to catch problems early and not be bitten later when the calling function happens to sleep when it is not supposed to.

cant_sleep¶

cant_sleep ()

annotation for functions that cannot sleep

Parameters

Description

this macro will print a stack trace if it is executed with preemption enabled

cant_migrate¶

cant_migrate ()

annotation for functions that cannot migrate

Parameters

Description

Will print a stack trace if executed in code which is migratable

non_block_start¶

non_block_start ()

annotate the start of section where sleeping is prohibited

Parameters

Description

This is on behalf of the oom reaper, specifically when it is calling the mmu notifiers. The problem is that if the notifier were to block on, for example, mutex_lock() and if the process which holds that mutex were to perform a sleeping memory allocation, the oom reaper is now blocked on completion of that memory allocation. Other blocking calls like wait_event() pose similar issues.

non_block_end¶

non_block_end ()

annotate the end of section where sleeping is prohibited

Parameters

Description

Closes a section opened by non_block_start().

trace_printk¶

trace_printk (fmt, ...)

printf formatting in the ftrace buffer

Parameters

fmt: the printf format for printing
...: variable arguments

Note

__trace_printk is an internal function for trace_printk() and: the ip is passed in via the trace_printk() macro.

Description

This function allows a kernel developer to debug fast path sections that printk is not appropriate for. By scattering in various printk like tracing in the code, a developer can quickly see where problems are occurring.

This is intended as a debugging tool for the developer only. Please refrain from leaving trace_printks scattered around in your code. (Extra memory is used for special buffers that are allocated when trace_printk() is used.)

A little optimization trick is done here. If there’s only one argument, there’s no need to scan the string for printf formats. The trace_puts() will suffice. But how can we take advantage of using trace_puts() when trace_printk() has only one argument? By stringifying the args and checking the size we can tell whether or not there are args. __stringify((__VA_ARGS__)) will turn into “()0” with a size of 3 when there are no args, anything else will be bigger. All we need to do is define a string to this, and then take its size and compare to 3. If it’s bigger, use do_trace_printk() otherwise, optimize it to trace_puts(). Then just let gcc optimize the rest.

trace_puts¶

trace_puts (str)

write a string into the ftrace buffer

Parameters

str: the string to record

Note

__trace_bputs is an internal function for trace_puts and: the ip is passed in via the trace_puts macro.

Description

This is similar to trace_printk() but is made for those really fast paths that a developer wants the least amount of “Heisenbug” effects, where the processing of the print format is still too much.

This function allows a kernel developer to debug fast path sections that printk is not appropriate for. By scattering in various printk like tracing in the code, a developer can quickly see where problems are occurring.

This is intended as a debugging tool for the developer only. Please refrain from leaving trace_puts scattered around in your code. (Extra memory is used for special buffers that are allocated when trace_puts() is used.)

Return

0 if nothing was written, positive # if string was.: (1 when __trace_bputs is used, strlen(str) when __trace_puts is used)

int match_devname_and_update_preferred_console(const char *devname, const char *name, const short idx)¶: Update a preferred console when matching devname is found.

Parameters

const char *devname: DEVNAME:0.0 style device name
const char *name: Name of the corresponding console driver, e.g. “ttyS”
const short idx: Console index, e.g. port number.

Description

The function checks whether a device with the given devname is preferred via the console=DEVNAME:0.0 command line option. It fills the missing console driver name and console index so that a later register_console() call could find (match) and enable this device.

It might be used when a driver subsystem initializes particular devices with already known DEVNAME:0.0 style names. And it could predict which console driver name and index this device would later get associated with.

Return

0 on success, negative error code on failure.

Description

Managed krealloc(). Resizes the memory chunk allocated with devm_kmalloc(). Behaves similarly to regular krealloc(): if ptr is NULL or ZERO_SIZE_PTR, it’s the equivalent of devm_kmalloc(). If new_size is zero, it frees the previously allocated memory and returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR. This function doesn’t change the order in which the release callback for the re-alloc’ed devres will be called (except when falling back to devm_kmalloc() or when freeing resources when new_size is zero). The contents of the memory are preserved up to the lesser of new and old sizes.
