Typical examples Industrial process control Transportation Medicine (pacemakers, etc.) Real Time in Embedded Linux Systems © Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Opdenacker Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license http://free-electrons.com Nov 25, 2005 6 Soft Real Time A system is considered as soft real time if it is built to react to stimuli as quickly as it can. ªBest effortº However, if the system loses events or fails to process them in time, there is no catastrophic consequence on its operation. There is just a degradation in quality. Typical examples Audio, video Airline reservation systems Real Time in Embedded Linux Systems © Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Opdenacker Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license http://free-electrons.com Nov 25, 2005 7 Linux and Real Time Linux cannot be considered as a hard real time system There are long sections of code where all interrupts are masked Kernel code (system calls) not preemptible until they complete or decide to release the processor by calling the scheduler. Real Time in Embedded Linux Systems © Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Opdenacker Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license http://free-electrons.com Nov 25, 2005 8 Typical response time A Linux system can be considered as soft real time if it can react within a few hundreds of µs in most cases. A Linux system can be considered as hard real time if it can react within a few tens of µs in all cases. Real Time in Embedded Linux Systems © Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Opdenacker Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license http://free-electrons.com Nov 25, 2005 9 Linux 2.6 improvements Linux 2.6 improves this by offering a preemptible option (CONFIG_PREEMPT) Kernel code can be interrupted at almost any time (except when spinlocks are held) This reduces latency for high priority processes Implications for driver writers Anything can happen between 2 instructions Uniprocessor machines behave like SMP ones. No issue for clean drivers written with SMP in mind. Caution with per-CPU variables Real Time in Embedded Linux Systems © Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Opdenacker Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license http://free-electrons.com Nov 25, 2005 10 Other Linux 2.6 improvements Much more efficient scheduler Can be built with no virtual memory support. Note: lots of RTOS systems don©t use an MMU, even if one is available in the CPU. MMU management can add too much overhead. Improved POSIX threads (now available in mainstream) POSIX signals can©t be lost Make it easier to set task priorities and schedule periodic tasks with precision (useful for polling resources) Real Time in Embedded Linux Systems © Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Opdenacker Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license http://free-electrons.com Nov 25, 2005 11 Low latency patches Linux 2.4 approach: add more scheduler calls throughout the code. Addressed by the preemptible option in 2.6. Voluntary preemption patch (Ingo Molnar) http://people.redhat.com/mingo/voluntary-preempt/ Reduces latency by calling cond_reschedule() in the might_sleep() calls (used for debugging). However, Andrew Morton argued that it©s redundant with the preemptible option. See http://lwn.net/Articles/92806/ for details. August 2004: Some audio users still complain that Linux 2.6 latency is still not sufficient, even with the low latency patches.

Licenseº: 2 conditions for royalty-free use of this license Either using only GNU GPL software. No room for proprietary software or even other free software (BSD, Apache...) Or using an unmodified version of RTLinux. See http://www.fsmlabs.com/openpatentlicense.html FSF: RTLinux and distributing RTLinux violates the GPL license Real Time in Embedded Linux Systems © Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Opdenacker Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license http://free-electrons.com Nov 25, 2005 14 Other RTLinux issues Community unfriendly. Example: http://www.rtlinux.org/ and http://www.realtimelinux.org/ now redirect to http://www.fsmlabs.com/ The patent issue and uncertainty drew many developers away and frightened users. Linux RTAI attracts much more attention, developers and users. Offers 2 products RTLinuxPro: much more advertised. In particular, includes major rewrites to the original common code base. RTLinuxFree: doesn©t include the RTLinuxPro improvements... See http://www.fsmlabs.com/rtlinuxfree.html If you need commercial RT distributions, better use the other ones (Real Free Software with no patent burden).

  • How Free Become Open and Everything Else Under the Sun
    This article was published as the featured article in the Journal Media/Culture here: http://journal.media-culture.org.au/0406/02_Coleman-Hill.php How Free Become Open and Everything Else Under the Sun Biella Coleman and Benjamin Mako Hill Abstract: Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) has been adopted as a political tool by leftist activists. At the same time, it has been embraced by large corporations to extend profits and has been criticized as an integral force in late capitalism. It has been adopted by members of the growing Commons movement as a model for limiting the power of capitalism. This essay attempts to confront the variability of these relationships through a cursory analysis of each field and through an look at FOSS philosophy and practice. It argues that Free Software exists as a politically agnostic field of practice--built on and through a broadly defined philosophy. It analyzes the way that this philosophy is well suited for the spread of FOSS technologies and its translation into the terms of radically different, even oppositional, social and political movements. Author Bios and Contact Information Benjamin "Mako" Hill is a Free and Open Source Software developer and advocate. He is a director of Software in the Public Interest and a member of the Debian project -- by most accounts the single largest Free Software project. In addition to volunteer and professional Free Software work, Hill writes and speaks extensively on issues of free software, intellectual property, collaboration, and technology. email: [email protected] Biella Coleman is a cultural anthropologist from the University of Chicago currently writing her dissertation on the ethical dynamics and political implications of the Free and Open Source movement.

  • Introduction to Linux
    Presentation to U3A - Linux Introduction 8 June 2019 – Terry Schuster - [email protected] What is Linux? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux https://www.iotforall.com/linux-operating-system-iot-devices/ In simple terms, Linux is an operating system which was developed to be a home-built version of UNIX, one of the first operating systems which could be run on different brands of mainframe computers with quite different types of hardware. Linux has developed to the extent that it is the leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers, and the only OS used on TOP500 supercomputers (since November 2017, having gradually eliminated all competitors). It is used by around 2.3 percent of desktop computers. The Chromebook, which runs the Linux kernel-based Chrome OS, dominates the US K–12 education market. In the mid 2000’s, Linux was quickly seen as a good building block for smartphones, as it provided an out- of-the-box modern, full-featured Operating System with very good device driver support, and that was considered both scalable for the new generation of devices and had the added benefit of being royalty free. It is now becoming very common in IoT devices, such as smart watches/refrigerators, home controllers, etc. etc. BTW, Tux is a penguin character and the official brand character of the Linux kernel. Originally created as an entry to a Linux logo competition, Tux is the most commonly used icon for Linux, although different Linux distributions depict Tux in various styles. The character is used in many other Linux programs and as a general symbol of Linux.

  • Cucumber Linux Distribution Scott Court February 16, 2018 Who Am I?
    An Overview of How I Created the Cucumber Linux Distribution Scott Court February 16, 2018 Who am I? What is Cucumber Linux? ● A Linux distribution built entirely from source, from scratch ● An independent distribution: it’s not based on any other Linux distribution. ● Inspired by: a mixture of Slackware and Linux from Scratch. ● Architectures: i686 and x86_64 ● Package manager: pkgtools (borrowed from Slackware; uses tar archives as packages like Pacman). ● License: MIT ● Mission: provide a Linux distribution that follows the Unix Philosophy with a focus on simplicity, stability and security, and is usable as an every day, general purpose operating system. What can it Do? ● It’s functional as both a server and desktop operating system. ● Server Operating System: – Contains a fully functional LAMP stack as well as SSH, mail, DNS, FTP and Rsync servers. – Runs the web server and mail server for cucumberlinux.com. – Runs the primary mirror for Cucumber Linux (http and rsync). ● Desktop Operating System: – Comes with the XFCE desktop environment, a web browser, a mail client and an office suite. – It’s running this presentation right now. May 2016 – How it Began ● I had just completed my freshman year of college. ● I was looking for a project to work on that Summer. ● I had grown unhappy with the direction most every other Linux distribution was going in (namely the exodus from Sysvinit to Systemd). ● I had always had an interest in operating system development. ● So I set out to make my own Linux distribution, without Systemd. May 2016 – July 2016 ● May, June and July of 2016 were spent doing research and trying out different techniques for building a Linux system from scratch.
