The documentation grew one page at a time, so the tree follows the
history of who wrote what and not the shape of NuttX. Scheduling is
spread over three places, a driver page can sit above the subsystem
that owns it, and the front page lists everything at the same level.
That is a lot to face when all you want to know is where the scheduler
lives.
This change files every page under the code it describes. It is a move,
not a rewrite: outside the ten pages named below, every page keeps the
text that is already in master, and no page's text is deleted.
What it does:
* Groups the table of contents into nine chapters.
* Moves the OS subsystems under os/: scheduling, memory, drivers,
filesystem, networking, IPC, interrupts, libs, time.
* Renames the platform pages to the names the source tree uses, and
derives their tags from the tree instead of by hand.
* Splits guides/ by subject.
* Adds Documentation/redirects.py, with a rule for every page that left
its old path, so old URLs keep working. The redirect page also carries
a link's #anchor across to the new page.
Ten pages have text that is new or rewritten. Nine of them are the
landing page of a chapter, which has to exist for the new structure:
index the front page
os/index OS Design
os/scheduling/index Scheduling
os/interrupts/index Interrupts
os/ipc/index IPC
os/time/index Time and timers
about/index About
developing/index Developing NuttX
ReleaseNotes/index Release notes
The tenth is os/libs/libbuiltin, the only page here with technical
content: libs/libbuiltin/ had no page at all. Five SVG diagrams come
with these pages, hand-written XML with no editor metadata.
Nothing outside Documentation/ is touched.
How it was checked:
* Sphinx builds with -W: no warnings, and no document left outside a
toctree.
* A script, offered in the PR, proves the narrow claim this rests on.
For every page outside the ten named above it erases what a move
touches -- link target, path, tag line, toctree block, table border --
from the whole old text and the whole new text, and requires the two
to be byte for byte identical. It also requires every sentence of a
deleted page to turn up somewhere, and every page that left its old
path to have a redirect, from a URL that existed, to where its content
went. It exits non-zero and names the page if any of that is not true,
and it tests added pages too, so forgetting to declare one cannot make
it pass.
* An independent audit checked 133 factual claims on these ten pages
against the tree, one shell command per claim: 130 confirmed, 1
refuted and fixed here, 2 not checkable.
* tools/checkpatch.sh is clean over the range.
The diff is large because moving a page changes every link that points
to it. Most of it is pure renames, and board pages that gained one tag
line.

``rexecd`` Remote Execution Server
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
``rexecd`` is the daemon that serves remote execution requests from the
|
|
``rexec`` client. For the IP families it listens on the rexec port
|
|
(``REXECD_PORT``, 512); for ``AF_RPMSG`` it listens on a corresponding
|
|
RPMsg socket name. It authenticates the request and runs the requested
|
|
command, piping its output back to the client.
|
|
|
|
By default ``rexecd`` spawns a detached worker thread per accepted
|
|
connection so that multiple sessions can run concurrently.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
rexecd [-4|-6|-r] [-t]
|
|
|
|
Options
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
``-4``
|
|
Specify the address family as ``AF_INET`` (IPv4). This is the default.
|
|
|
|
``-6``
|
|
Specify the address family as ``AF_INET6`` (IPv6).
|
|
|
|
``-r``
|
|
Specify the address family as ``AF_RPMSG``. This serves the daemon over
|
|
an RPMsg link instead of TCP/IP, allowing a remote processor in an AMP
|
|
system to execute commands. See :doc:`/os/drivers/special/rpmsg/concepts`
|
|
for details on RPMsg.
|
|
|
|
``-t``
|
|
Serve each connection inline in the main task instead of spawning a
|
|
per-connection worker thread. This avoids allocating the worker stack
|
|
(``CONFIG_NETUTILS_REXECD_STACKSIZE``) from the heap, which helps on
|
|
low-memory targets. With this option connections are served strictly
|
|
one at a time: a long-running or interactive command blocks the accept
|
|
loop until it finishes.
