2025-07-28rv: Add opid per-cpu monitorGabriele Monaco1-0/+55
Add a per-cpu monitor as part of the sched model: * opid: operations with preemption and irq disabled Monitor to ensure wakeup and need_resched occur with irq and preemption disabled or in irq handlers.

2025-07-28rv: Replace tss and sncid monitors with more complete stsGabriele Monaco1-39/+48
The tss monitor currently guarantees task switches can happen only while scheduling, whereas the sncid monitor enforces scheduling occurs with interrupt disabled. Replace the monitors with a more comprehensive specification which implies both but also ensures that: * each scheduler call disable interrupts to switch * each task switch happens with interrupts disabled Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Nam Cao <namcao@linutronix.de> Cc: Tomas Glozar <tglozar@redhat.com> Cc: Juri Lelli <jlelli@redhat.com> Cc: Clark Williams <williams@redhat.com> Cc: John Kacur <jkacur@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250728135022.255578-8-gmonaco@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Gabriele Monaco <gmonaco@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2025-07-24verification/rvgen: Support the 'next' operatorNam Cao1-0/+1
The 'next' operator is a unary operator. It is defined as: "next time, the operand must be true". Support this operator. For RV monitors, "next time" means the next invocation of ltl_validate().

2025-07-24Documentation/rv: Prepare monitor synthesis document for LTL inclusionNam Cao2-11/+11
Monitor synthesis from deterministic automaton and linear temporal logic have a lot in common. Therefore a single document should describe both. Change da_monitor_synthesis.rst to monitor_synthesis.rst. LTL monitor synthesis will be added to this file by a follow-up commit. This makes the diff far easier to read. If renaming and adding LTL info is done in a single commit, git wouldn't recognize it as a rename, but a file removal and a file addition. While at it, correct the old dot2k commands to the new rvgen commands.

2022-07-30rv/monitor: Add the wwnr monitorDaniel Bristot de Oliveira2-0/+46
Per task wakeup while not running (wwnr) monitor. This model is broken, the reason is that a task can be running in the processor without being set as RUNNABLE. Think about a task about to sleep: 1: set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE); 2: schedule(); And then imagine an IRQ happening in between the lines one and two, waking the task up. BOOM, the wakeup will happen while the task is running. Q: Why do we need this model, so? A: To test the reactors.

2022-07-30rv/monitor: Add the wip monitorDaniel Bristot de Oliveira2-0/+56
The wakeup in preemptive (wip) monitor verifies if the wakeup events always take place with preemption disabled: | | v #==================# H preemptive H <+ #==================# | | | | preempt_disable | preempt_enable v | sched_waking +------------------+ | +--------------- | | | | | non_preemptive | | +--------------> | | -+ +------------------+ The wakeup event always takes place with preemption disabled because of the scheduler synchronization. However, because the preempt_count and its trace event are not atomic with regard to interrupts, some inconsistencies might happen. The documentation illustrates one of these cases.
