238 -- is a global lock (Single_RTS_Lock, Global_Task_Lock).
240 -- Note that Write_Lock for RTS_Lock does not have an out-parameter.
241 -- RTS_Locks are used in situations where we have not made provision for
242 -- recovery from ceiling violations. We do not expect them to occur inside
243 -- the runtime system, because all RTS locks have ceiling Priority'Last.
245 -- There is one way there can be a ceiling violation. That is if the
246 -- runtime system is called from a task that is executing in the
247 -- Interrupt_Priority range.
249 -- It is not clear what to do about ceiling violations due to RTS calls
250 -- done at interrupt priority. In general, it is not acceptable to give
251 -- all RTS locks interrupt priority, since that would give terrible
252 -- performance on systems where this has the effect of masking hardware
253 -- interrupts, though we could get away allowing Interrupt_Priority'last
254 -- where we are layered on an OS that does not allow us to mask interrupts.
255 -- Ideally, we would like to raise Program_Error back at the original point
256 -- of the RTS call, but this would require a lot of detailed analysis and
257 -- recoding, with almost certain performance penalties.
259 -- For POSIX systems, we considered just skipping setting priority ceiling
260 -- on RTS locks. This would mean there is no ceiling violation, but we
261 -- would end up with priority inversions inside the runtime system,
262 -- resulting in failure to satisfy the Ada priority rules, and possible
263 -- missed validation tests. This could be compensated-for by explicit
264 -- priority-change calls to raise the caller to Priority'Last whenever it
265 -- first enters the runtime system, but the expected overhead seems high,
266 -- though it might be lower than using locks with ceilings if the
267 -- underlying implementation of ceiling locks is an inefficient one.
269 -- This issue should be reconsidered whenever we get around to checking
270 -- for calls to potentially blocking operations from within protected
271 -- operations. If we check for such calls and catch them on entry to the
272 -- OS, it may be that we can eliminate the possibility of ceiling
273 -- violations inside the RTS. For this to work, we would have to forbid
274 -- explicitly setting the priority of a task to anything in the
275 -- Interrupt_Priority range, at least. We would also have to check that
276 -- there are no RTS-lock operations done inside any operations that are
277 -- not treated as potentially blocking.
279 -- The latter approach seems to be the best, i.e. to check on entry to RTS
280 -- calls that may need to use locks that the priority is not in the
281 -- interrupt range. If there are RTS operations that NEED to be called
282 -- from interrupt handlers, those few RTS locks should then be converted
283 -- to PO-type locks, with ceiling Interrupt_Priority'Last.

425 -- Stack Checking --

428 -- Stack checking in GNAT is done using the concept of stack probes. A
429 -- stack probe is an operation that will generate a storage error if
430 -- an insufficient amount of stack space remains in the current task.
432 -- The exact mechanism for a stack probe is target dependent. Typical
433 -- possibilities are to use a load from a non-existent page, a store to a
434 -- read-only page, or a comparison with some stack limit constant. Where
435 -- possible we prefer to use a trap on a bad page access, since this has
436 -- less overhead. The generation of stack probes is either automatic if
437 -- the ABI requires it (as on for example DEC Unix), or is controlled by
438 -- the gcc parameter -fstack-check.
440 -- When we are using bad-page accesses, we need a bad page, called guard
441 -- page, at the end of each task stack. On some systems, this is provided
442 -- automatically, but on other systems, we need to create the guard page
443 -- ourselves, and the procedure Stack_Guard is provided for this purpose.
445 procedure Stack_Guard (T : ST.Task_Id; On : Boolean);
446 -- Ensure guard page is set if one is needed and the underlying thread
447 -- system does not provide it. The procedure is as follows:
449 -- 1. When we create a task adjust its size so a guard page can
450 -- safely be set at the bottom of the stack.
452 -- 2. When the thread is created (and its stack allocated by the
453 -- underlying thread system), get the stack base (and size, depending
454 -- how the stack is growing), and create the guard page taking care
455 -- of page boundaries issues.
457 -- 3. When the task is destroyed, remove the guard page.
459 -- If On is true then protect the stack bottom (i.e make it read only)
460 -- else unprotect it (i.e. On is True for the call when creating a task,
461 -- and False when a task is destroyed).
463 -- The call to Stack_Guard has no effect if guard pages are not used on
464 -- the target, or if guard pages are automatically provided by the system.
