Hi to all.
I'm Paolo Minazzi and we use a port of xenomai on our arm Marvel mv78100 
board.
We use kernel 2.6.31.8 and xenomai 2.5.6.
All works well.
We have developed an application that use the xenomai features.
We can debug it with gdb, native or gdb client/server ver 6.8a.

I have tried also other gdb version, also the new 7.5.1.

Sometimes *** during debugging ***  we can generate a very strange problem.
When the realtime tasks execute the rt_task_sleep(), the rt_task_sleep() 
does not return anymore !
When we enter in this strange condition, the system is usable, linux 
works normally, but the realtime features do not works.

The problem is not easily reproducible.
I have tried in a lot of way to write a simple program for generating 
the problem, but I am not able to do it.

When I can reach the bug conditionm, If I run a simple xenomai test 
program with
- 20 realtime tasks
- 1 irq external line (generated every 2ms from a Fujitsu microcontroller)

     #include <...>

     #define N 20

     void tsk(void *arg)
     {
         struct data_task_struct *p = arg;
         while (1)
         {
             rt_task_sleep(p->delay);
             cnt++;
         }
     }

     int main(int argc, char* argv[])
     {
         mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE);

         rt_timer_set_mode ( 0 );
         rt_task_set_mode(0, 0, NULL);

         MapRegistersARM();

         InitIrq();
         enable_irq_fujitsu();

         for (i=0; i<N; i++)
         {
             char s[1024];
             sprintf(s,"demo%d",i);
             data_task[i].cnt = 0;
             data_task[i].delay = 1000000 * (1+i);
             rt_task_create(&data_task[i].tsk, s, 0, i, T_JOINABLE);
             rt_task_start(&data_task[i].tsk, &tsk, &data_task[i]);
         }

         while(1)
         {
             int i;
             printf("[ %4d ]    ",cnt2ms);
             for (i=0; i<N; i++)
                 printf("%3d ",data_task[i].cnt);
             usleep(10000);
             printf("\n");
         }
     }

I can get the following information :

I can generate the problem only debugging with gdb, otherwise there is 
no problem.

Can you help me to undertand what happen ?
Have you got an idea ? do you need other information ?

Thanks for your time.

In case it is something which was fixed since Xenomai 2.5.6, could you
try Xenomai 2.6.2.1?

The issue is not the compiler, the issue is with the linux kernel you
use. Could you put me a source tarball on some ftp site?

Please try adding:
#define ARM(x...)	x
#define	THUMB(x...)

At the top of switch.S

Right, normally this file should only be included in
src/skins/common/bind.c, but it happens to be included in all skins.
Will fix.

Hi Gill,
2.6.2.1 seems work ok with a normal xenomai application.
But testing our complex application (to seach the gdb bug 
/rt_task_sleep) I found an other small problem.
Today I have studied this new problem that can be shown and produced 
with a simple example.

#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <native/task.h>
#include <native/timer.h>
#include <native/mutex.h>
#include <native/sem.h>
#include <pthread.h>

// PRIO=0 make a fault ! Other values are good
#define PRIO 0

RT_TASK tsk;

void fn(void *arg)
{

Indeed, I can reproduce that. The problem seems to be calling
rt_task_delete before the task has been started. If you start the task,
this will not happen.

Debugging xenomai thread causes the timers to be stopped, and they are
supposed to be restarted when the thread blocked on the breakpoint,
maybe this is what goes wrong: the timers are not restarted.

Another possibility is the hardware timer being programmed for a too
short delay.

Please no private mails.

Time ago I have already tried to change a parameter

I have tried bigger and smaller value than 250ms without luck.
If you have got some ideas I can make tests as you want.

As the comment says, and the code shows, the timer will elapse again and
check if the timebase is unlocked, if the timebase is locked, it will go
to sleep again.

> If you have got some ideas I can make tests as you want.


Provide us with an example allowing to reproduce the issue. Or
alternatively, you can do the debug yourself following the leads I
already gave you.

Unfortunately it is not easy make a small program that produce the problem.
I have tried making the debugging with gdb an automatic process, but I 
cannot see the problem.
I can uderstand that timer stops because a problem in programming the 
timer interval.
But I do not understand why if I use CTRL-C to stop the application (in 
a moment that rt_task_sleep are blocked) I have still the same problem 
(rt_task_sleep blocked). The only solution to use a realtime process is 
to reset my arm processor. Why xenomai does not reset all when I start a 
xenomai application ?

Well, there is a bug. If the code did the right thing, there would be no
bug, right? Now your job is to find it. We can not find it for you if
you do not provide us with a way to reproduce it.
