Allowing Shared Libraries While Supporting Hardware Isolation in Multicore Real-Time Systems

The desire to support real-time applications on multicore platforms has led to intense recent interest in techniques for reducing memory-related hardware interference. These techniques typically rely on mechanisms that ensure per-task isolation properties with respect to cache and memory accesses. In most prior work on such techniques, any sharing of memory pages by different tasks is defined away, as sharing breaks isolation. In reality, however, sharing is common. In this paper, one source of sharing is considered, namely, the usage of shared libraries. Such sharing can be obviated by statically linking libraries, but this solution can degrade schedulability by exhausting memory capacity. An alternative approach is proposed herein that allows library pages to be shared while preserving isolation properties. This approach is presented in the context of the MC2 framework and a schedulability-based evaluation of it is presented. Such an evaluation must necessarily consider memory-capacity limits. As a secondary contribution, this paper considers such limits for the first time in the context of MC2.
