VMM CPU Scheduling in Xen

（有时间我会给原版打个patch，让其更完整：）

 

文件：xen-3.4.2/xen/common/schedule.c

 

 

0、Per-CPU schedule data

struct schedule_data {
spinlock_tschedule_lock;/* spinlock protecting curr */
struct vcpu *curr;/* current task */
struct vcpu*idle;/* idle task for this cpu */
void *sched_priv;
struct timers_timer;/* scheduling timer */
} __cacheline_aligned; （和cache line对齐）

 

DECLARE_PER_CPU(struct schedule_data, schedule_data);

 

1、SCHEDULE_SOFTIRQ
这个软中断用于触发调度器的执行。在调度器初始化的时候初始化，中断服务例程是调度函数schedule。
代码：
/* Initialise the data structures. */
void __init scheduler_init(void)
{
....................................
     open_softirq(SCHEDULE_SOFTIRQ, schedule);
....................................
使用：
raise_softirq(SCHEDULE_SOFTIRQ);   执行该代码之后会导致所在cpu执行调度

2、schedule
选择下一个待执行的vcpu，执行vcpu切换
/*
 * The main function
 * - deschedule the current domain (scheduler independent).
 * - pick a new domain (scheduler dependent).
 */
static void schedule(void)
{
     struct vcpu          *prev = current, *next = NULL;
     s_time_t              now = NOW();
     struct schedule_data *sd;
     struct task_slice     next_slice;
....................................
     /* get policy-specific decision on scheduling... */
     next_slice = ops.do_schedule(now);         //对于credit调度算法，会执行credit调度器中注册的csched_schedule函数

     next = next_slice.task;

     sd->curr = next;

     if ( next_slice.time >= 0 ) /* -ve means no limit */
         set_timer(&sd->s_timer, now + next_slice.time);       //设置next需要运行的时间

     if ( unlikely(prev == next) )
     {
         spin_unlock_irq(&sd->schedule_lock);
         trace_continue_running(next);
         return continue_running(prev);             //直接执行schedule_tail函数，跳过vcpu切换
     }

..................................
if (test_bit(_VPF_blocked, &prev->pause_flags)) { // 原来那句太难懂啦，我弄个易懂的：）
vcpu_runstate_change(prev, RUNSTATE_blocked, now);
} else {
if (vcpu_runnable(prev))
vcpu_runstate_change(prev, RUNSTATE_runnable, now);
else
vcpu_runstate_change(prev, RUNSTATE_offline, now);
}
     prev->last_run_time = now;

     ASSERT(next->runstate.state != RUNSTATE_running);
     vcpu_runstate_change(next, RUNSTATE_running, now);

     ASSERT(!next->is_running);
     next->is_running = 1;              //设置正在运行标志位
.........................

     context_switch(prev, next);  //执行vcpu切换
}

3、block
/* Block the currently-executing domain until a pertinent event occurs. */
static long do_block(void)
{
     struct vcpu *v = current;

     local_event_delivery_enable();
     set_bit(_VPF_blocked, &v->pause_flags);     //设置block标志位 _VPF_blocked

     /* Check for events /after/ blocking: avoids wakeup waiting race. */
     if ( local_events_need_delivery() ) { //检测current vcpu的pending位是否被设置以及event delivery是否被允许
         clear_bit(_VPF_blocked, &v->pause_flags);  
     } else {
         raise_softirq(SCHEDULE_SOFTIRQ);        //current vcpu被标识为block状态，调度其他vcpu运行
     }

     return 0;
}


4、wake
唤醒指定的vcpu，使其从block状态却换到可运行状态
void vcpu_wake(struct vcpu *v)
{
     unsigned long flags;

     vcpu_schedule_lock_irqsave(v, flags);

     if ( likely(vcpu_runnable(v)) ) {
         if ( v->runstate.state >= RUNSTATE_blocked )
             vcpu_runstate_change(v, RUNSTATE_runnable, NOW());
         SCHED_OP(wake, v);   //执行调度器中的wake函数
     } else if ( !test_bit(_VPF_blocked, &v->pause_flags) ) {
         if ( v->runstate.state == RUNSTATE_blocked )
             vcpu_runstate_change(v, RUNSTATE_offline, NOW());
     }
     vcpu_schedule_unlock_irqrestore(v, flags);
}



重要函数记录：
struct domain *d; 
struct vcpu *v;
for_each_vcpu ( d, v )     遍历domain中的vcpu
{
if ( v != current )
vcpu_pause(v);
}


struct domain *rd;
domid_t dom;
rd = rcu_lock_domain_by_id(dom);  根据domid获取相应的数据结构
