Linus Torvalds 4ff261e725 Runtime verification changes for 6.17
- Added Linear temporal logic monitors for RT application
 
   Real-time applications may have design flaws causing them to have
   unexpected latency. For example, the applications may raise page faults, or
   may be blocked trying to take a mutex without priority inheritance.
 
   However, while attempting to implement DA monitors for these real-time
   rules, deterministic automaton is found to be inappropriate as the
   specification language. The automaton is complicated, hard to understand,
   and error-prone.
 
   For these cases, linear temporal logic is found to be more suitable. The
   LTL is more concise and intuitive.
 
 - Make printk_deferred() public
 
   The new monitors needed access to printk_deferred(). Make them visible for
   the entire kernel.
 
 - Add a vpanic() to allow for va_list to be passed to panic.
 
 - Add rtapp container monitor.
 
   A collection of monitors that check for common problems with real-time
   applications that cause unexpected latency.
 
 - Add page fault tracepoints to risc-v
 
   These tracepoints are necessary to for the RV monitor to run on risc-v.
 
 - Fix the behaviour of the rv tool with -s and idle tasks.
 
 - Allow the rv tool to gracefully terminate with SIGTERM
 
 - Adjusts dot2c not to create lines over 100 columns
 
 - Properly order nested monitors in the RV Kconfig file
 
 - Return the registration error in all DA monitor instead of 0
 
 - Update and add new sched collection monitors
 
   Replace tss and sncid monitors with more complete sts:
   Not only prove that switches occur in scheduling context and scheduling
   needs interrupt disabled but also that each call to the scheduler
   disables interrupts to (optionally) switch.
 
   New monitor: nrp
    Preemption requires need resched which is cleared by any switch
    (includes a non optimal workaround for /nested/ preemptions)
 
   New monitor: sssw
    suspension requires setting the task to sleepable and, after the
    switch occurs, the task requires a wakeup to come back to runnable
 
   New monitor: opid
    waking and need-resched operations occur with interrupts and
    preemption disabled or in IRQ without explicitly disabling preemption

 - Added Linear temporal logic monitors for RT application

   Real-time applications may have design flaws causing them to have
   unexpected latency. For example, the applications may raise page
   faults, or may be blocked trying to take a mutex without priority
   inheritance.

   However, while attempting to implement DA monitors for these
   real-time rules, deterministic automaton is found to be inappropriate
   as the specification language. The automaton is complicated, hard to
   understand, and error-prone.

   For these cases, linear temporal logic is found to be more suitable.
   The LTL is more concise and intuitive.

 - Make printk_deferred() public

   The new monitors needed access to printk_deferred(). Make them
   visible for the entire kernel.

 - Add a vpanic() to allow for va_list to be passed to panic.

 - Add rtapp container monitor.

   A collection of monitors that check for common problems with
   real-time applications that cause unexpected latency.

 - Add page fault tracepoints to risc-v

   These tracepoints are necessary to for the RV monitor to run on
   risc-v.

 - Allow the rv tool to gracefully terminate with SIGTERM

 - Adjusts dot2c not to create lines over 100 columns

   Not only prove that switches occur in scheduling context and scheduling
   needs interrupt disabled but also that each call to the scheduler
   disables interrupts to (optionally) switch.
