[PATCH v3 0/8] Add support for cyclic function execution infrastruture

This patchset adds the basic infrastructure to periodically execute code, e.g. all 100ms. Examples for such functions might be LED blinking etc. The functions that are hooked into this cyclic list should be small timewise as otherwise the execution of the other code that relies on a high frequent polling (e.g. UART rx char ready check) might be delayed too much. This patch also adds the Kconfig option CONFIG_CYCLIC_MAX_CPU_TIME_US, which configures the max allowed time for such a cyclic function. If it's execution time exceeds this time, this cyclic function will get removed from the cyclic list.
How is this cyclic functionality executed? This patchset integrates the main function responsible for calling all registered cyclic functions cyclic_run() into the common WATCHDOG_RESET macro. This guarantees that cyclic_run() is executed very often, which is necessary for the cyclic functions to get scheduled and executed at their configured periods.
This cyclic infrastructure will be used by a board specific function on the NIC23 MIPS Octeon board, which needs to check periodically, if a PCIe FLR has occurred.
Ideas how to continue: One idea is to rename WATCHDOG_RESET to something like SCHEDULE and move the watchdog_reset call into this cyclic infrastructure as well. Or to perhaps move the shell UART RX ready polling to a cyclic function.
It's also possible to extend the "cyclic" command, to support the creation of periodically executed shell commands (for testing etc).
Here the Azure build, without any issues: https://dev.azure.com/sr0718/u-boot/_build/results?buildId=225&view=resu...
v2->v3: - Added documentation

Can you document cyclic_struct - and perhaps 'struct cyclic_info' for 'struct cyclic' would be better so we don't have 'struct' in a struct?
I still do see a lot of commonality with events.

Agreed. My word choice was definitely not optimal. Will change in the next version.

If CONFIG_WATCHDOG is not enabled, only cyclic_run() without calling watchdog_reset(). This guarantees that the cyclic functionality does not rely on CONFIG_WATCHDOG being enabled.

Good point. Even though the world build did not trigger any new problems with oversized images.
I suggest creating a new function like check_watchdog() which you can define (in the C file) with IS_ENABLED() as either empty, calling watchdog_reset() and/or calling cyclic_run(). LTO should help here.
I tried a bit to get clean up this ugly #ifdef construct. And move this as you suggested into a C file. Just now I noticed, that we don't have a matching C file, which is compiled in all cases. wdt-uclass.c and cyclic.c are both only compiled when actually enabled in Kconfig.
So do you have some other / better idea on how to improve this?
BTW: Moving the watchdog integration into the cyclic infrastructure in some follow-up patches will make all this much cleaner AFAICT.
Thanks, Stefan

Doesn't this create two function calls from every reset site? I worry about code size.
Good point. Even though the world build did not trigger any new problems with oversized images.
I suggest creating a new function like check_watchdog() which you can define (in the C file) with IS_ENABLED() as either empty, calling watchdog_reset() and/or calling cyclic_run(). LTO should help here.
I tried a bit to get clean up this ugly #ifdef construct. And move this as you suggested into a C file. Just now I noticed, that we don't have a matching C file, which is compiled in all cases. wdt-uclass.c and cyclic.c are both only compiled when actually enabled in Kconfig.
So do you have some other / better idea on how to improve this?
BTW: Moving the watchdog integration into the cyclic infrastructure in some follow-up patches will make all this much cleaner AFAICT.
If you are going to do this soon, then I suggest not working about it too much.
But you could create wdt_common.c or similar. It should be OK to always compile it since the code will be dropped if nothing calls it.

Yes, this would be one potential intermediate "solution". I'll try to work on the WDT migration to cyclic IF soon and will keep the code in this header as-is for now.

This patch adds a call to cyclic_init() to board_f/r.c, enabling the common cyclic infrastructure. After this it's possible to add cyclic functions via cyclic_register().

This patch adds the cyclic command, which currently only supports the 'list' subcommand, to list all currently registered cyclic functions. Here an example:
=> cyclic list function: cyclic_demo, cpu-time: 7010 us, frequency: 99.80 times/s function: cyclic_demo2, cpu-time: 1 us, frequency: 1.13 times/s
As you can see, the cpu-time is accounted, so that cyclic functions that take too long might be discovered. Additionally the frequency is logged.

This should have a test in test/common - e.g. using timer_test_add_offset()
Ok. I'll add a small test for the cyclic IF this in the next patchset version.
Thanks, Stefan

From: Aaron Williams awilliams@marvell.com
This patch adds a fixup function related to a PCIe FLR (Function Level Reset) problem on the NIC23 PCIe board. This function is imported from the Marvell Octeon 2013 U-Boot version as a (nearly) verbatim copy. It uses the newly introduced cyclic infrastructure, so that this function gets called every 100us, which is needed to detect this FLR issue.
