Hi, Imran,

I think a "unmonitored list" is better than "monitor list", because we want khungtaskd can find out the "unexpected" hung task, but not few in a list.
Then, for the fg tasks, which can put it in the "unmonitored list", for the bg tasks, I think we can tweak the timeout to control the duration.

Thanks!

BR, Shile

Subject: [PATCH] RFC: hung task: Check specific tasks for long uninterruptible sleep state

khungtask by default monitors either all tasks or no tasks at all
for long unterruptible sleeps.
For Android like environments this arrangement is not optimal because
on one hand it may be permissible to have some background(bg) task
in uninterruptible sleep state for long duration while on the other
hand it may not be permissible to have some foreground(fg) task like
surfaceflinger in uninterruptible sleep state for long duration.
So it would be good to have some arrangement so that few specified tasks
can be monitored by khungtaskd, on a need basis.
This change introduces a sysctl option, /proc/sys/kernel/
hung_task_check_selected, to enable monitoring of selected tasks using
khungtask daemon. If this sysctl option is enabled then only the tasks
specified in /proc/hung_task_monitor_list are monitored otherwise all
tasks are monitored, just like the default case.

Here fg and bg tasks were just an example and may not be applicable for all environments (non-android). But main intention here is to have
some mechanism that would allow to monitor only specific tasks. As we have a sysctl option to enable/disable this mechanism we can at any time
fall back to default mechanism of monitoring all tasks.

Alternatively this can be done on task priority basis also, where we have a minimum priority and only tasks with priorities higher than
this min priority would be monitored and if we keep this min priority to the least priority , all tasks would be monitored like the 
default case. Please let me know your feedback regarding this approach.

Thanks and Regards,
Imran

Hi, Imran,

Seems the alternatively approach is better than former.

But sorry, I still think, like this kind of "monitoring", its better/easy to mark some "privileged task" not be monitored, but not list the one should be monitored.
Because It's easy to know which task should NOT be monitored (for some special purpose), but it's hard to which one should be monitored, right? Likes some task created runtime.

Just for your info.

BR, Shile
