Rik van Riel e78c349679 time, signal: Protect resource use statistics with seqlock
Both times() and clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID) have scalability
issues on large systems, due to both functions being serialized with a
lock.

The lock protects against reporting a wrong value, due to a thread in the
task group exiting, its statistics reporting up to the signal struct, and
that exited task's statistics being counted twice (or not at all).

Protecting that with a lock results in times() and clock_gettime() being
completely serialized on large systems.

This can be fixed by using a seqlock around the events that gather and
propagate statistics. As an additional benefit, the protection code can
be moved into thread_group_cputime(), slightly simplifying the calling
functions.

In the case of posix_cpu_clock_get_task() things can be simplified a
lot, because the calling function already ensures that the task sticks
around, and the rest is now taken care of in thread_group_cputime().

This way the statistics reporting code can run lockless.

xiaofeng.yan 177ef2a631 sched/deadline: Fix a precision problem in the microseconds range
An overrun could happen in function start_hrtick_dl()
when a task with SCHED_DEADLINE runs in the microseconds
range.

For example, if a task with SCHED_DEADLINE has the following parameters:

  Task  runtime  deadline  period
   P1   200us     500us    500us

The deadline and period from task P1 are less than 1ms.

In order to achieve microsecond precision, we need to enable HRTICK feature
by the next command:

  PC#echo "HRTICK" > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
  PC#trace-cmd record -e sched_switch &
  PC#./schedtool -E -t 200000:500000:500000 -e ./test

The binary test is in an endless while(1) loop here.
Some pieces of trace.dat are as follows:

  <idle>-0   157.603157: sched_switch: :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test
  test-2481  157.603203: sched_switch:  2481:R ==> 0:120: swapper/2
  <idle>-0   157.605657: sched_switch:  :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test
  test-2481  157.608183: sched_switch:  2481:R ==> 2483:120: trace-cmd
  trace-cmd-2483 157.609656: sched_switch:2483:R==>2481:4294967295: test

We can get the runtime of P1 from the information above:

  runtime = 157.608183 - 157.605657
  runtime = 0.002526(2.526ms)

The correct runtime should be less than or equal to 200us at some point.

The problem is caused by a conditional judgment "delta > 10000"
in function start_hrtick_dl().

Because no hrtimer start up to control the rest of runtime
when the reset of runtime is less than 10us.

So the process will continue to run until tick-period is coming.

Move the code with the limit of the least time slice
from hrtick_start_fair() to hrtick_start() because the
EDF schedule class also needs this function in start_hrtick_dl().

To fix this problem, we call hrtimer_start() unconditionally in
start_hrtick_dl(), and make sure the scheduling slice won't be smaller
than 10us in hrtimer_start().

The use of "rcu_assign_pointer()" is NULLing out the pointer.
According to RCU_INIT_POINTER()'s block comment:

  "1.   This use of RCU_INIT_POINTER() is NULLing out the pointer"

it is better to use it instead of rcu_assign_pointer() because it has a
smaller overhead.

Christoph Lameter 4ba2968420 percpu: Resolve ambiguities in __get_cpu_var/cpumask_var_t
__get_cpu_var can paper over differences in the definitions of
cpumask_var_t and either use the address of the cpumask variable
directly or perform a fetch of the address of the struct cpumask
allocated elsewhere. This is important particularly when using per cpu
cpumask_var_t declarations because in one case we have an offset into
a per cpu area to handle and in the other case we need to fetch a
pointer from the offset.

This patch introduces a new macro

this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr()

that is defined where cpumask_var_t is defined and performs the proper
actions. All use cases where __get_cpu_var is used with cpumask_var_t
are converted to the use of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

This function will help an async task processing batched jobs from
workqueue decide if it wants to keep processing on more chunks of batched
work that can be delayed, or to accumulate more work for more efficient
batched processing later.

If no other tasks are running on the cpu, the batching process can take
advantgae of the available cpu cycles to a make decision to continue
processing the existing accumulated work to minimize delay,
otherwise it will yield.

Kirill Tkhai 163122b7fc sched/fair: Remove double_lock_balance() from load_balance()
Avoid double_rq_lock() and use TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING for
load_balance(). The advantage is (obviously) not holding two
rq->lock's at the same time and thereby increasing parallelism.

Further note that if there was no task to migrate we will not
have acquired the second rq->lock at all.

The important point to note is that because we acquire dst->lock
immediately after releasing src->lock the potential wait time of
task_rq_lock() callers on TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING is not longer
than it would have been in the double rq lock scenario.

Kirill Tkhai cca26e8009 sched: Teach scheduler to understand TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING state
This is a new p->on_rq state which will be used to indicate that a task
is in a process of migrating between two RQs. It allows to get
rid of double_rq_lock(), which we used to use to change a rq of
a queued task before.

Let's consider an example. To move a task between src_rq and
dst_rq we will do the following:

	raw_spin_lock(&src_rq->lock);
	/* p is a task which is queued on src_rq */
	p = ...;

	dequeue_task(src_rq, p, 0);
	p->on_rq = TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING;
	set_task_cpu(p, dst_cpu);
	raw_spin_unlock(&src_rq->lock);

    	/*
    	 * Both RQs are unlocked here.
    	 * Task p is dequeued from src_rq
    	 * but its on_rq value is not zero.
    	 */

	raw_spin_lock(&dst_rq->lock);
	p->on_rq = TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED;
	enqueue_task(dst_rq, p, 0);
	raw_spin_unlock(&dst_rq->lock);

While p->on_rq is TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING, task is considered as
"migrating", and other parallel scheduler actions with it are
not available to parallel callers. The parallel caller is
spining till migration is completed.

The unavailable actions are changing of cpu affinity, changing
of priority etc, in other words all the functionality which used
to require task_rq(p)->lock before (and related to the task).

To implement TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING support we primarily are using
the following fact. Most of scheduler users (from which we are
protecting a migrating task) use task_rq_lock() and
__task_rq_lock() to get the lock of task_rq(p). These primitives
know that task's cpu may change, and they are spining while the
lock of the right RQ is not held. We add one more condition into
them, so they will be also spinning until the migration is
finished.

Rik van Riel b932c03c34 sched/numa: Fix off-by-one in capacity check
Commit a43455a1d5 ensures that
task_numa_migrate will call task_numa_compare on the preferred
node all the time, even when the preferred node has no free capacity.

This could lead to a performance regression if nr_running == capacity
on both the source and the destination node. This can be avoided by
also checking for nr_running == capacity on the source node, which is
one stricter than checking .has_free_capacity.

Rik van Riel caeb178c60 sched/fair: Make update_sd_pick_busiest() return 'true' on a busier sd
Currently update_sd_pick_busiest only identifies the busiest sd
that is either overloaded, or has a group imbalance. When no
sd is imbalanced or overloaded, the load balancer fails to find
the busiest domain.

This breaks load balancing between domains that are not overloaded,
in the !SD_ASYM_PACKING case. This patch makes update_sd_pick_busiest
return true when the busiest sd yet is encountered.

Groups are ranked in the order overloaded > imbalanced > other,
with higher ranked groups getting priority even when their load
is lower. This is necessary due to the possibility of unequal
capacities and cpumasks between domains within a sched group.

Behaviour for SD_ASYM_PACKING does not seem to match the comment,
but I have no hardware to test that so I have left the behaviour
of that code unchanged.

Enum for group classification suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Again, ACPICA leads the pack (47 commits), followed by cpufreq (18
  commits) and system suspend/hibernation (9 commits).

  From the new code perspective, the ACPICA update brings ACPI 5.1 to
  the table, including a new device configuration object called _DSD
  (Device Specific Data) that will hopefully help us to operate device
  properties like Device Trees do (at least to some extent) and changes
  related to supporting ACPI on ARM.

  Apart from that we have hibernation changes making it use radix trees
  to store memory bitmaps which should speed up some operations carried
  out by it quite significantly.  We also have some power management
  changes related to suspend-to-idle (the "freeze" sleep state) support
  and more preliminary changes needed to support ACPI on ARM (outside of
  ACPICA).

  The rest is fixes and cleanups pretty much everywhere.

 "Mostly changes to get the v2 interface ready.  The core features are
  mostly ready now and I think it's reasonable to expect to drop the

  controllers.

   - cgroup added a controller dependency mechanism so that block cgroup
     can depend on memory cgroup.  This will be used to finally support
     IO provisioning on the writeback traffic, which is currently being
     implemented.

   - The v2 interface now uses a separate table so that the interface
     files for the new interface are explicitly declared in one place.
     Each controller will explicitly review and add the files for the
     new interface.

   - cpuset is getting ready for the hierarchical behavior which is in
     the similar style with other controllers so that an ancestor's
     configuration change doesn't change the descendants' configurations
     irreversibly and processes aren't silently migrated when a CPU or
     node goes down.

  All the changes are to the new interface and no behavior changed for

Daniel Bristot de Oliveira d8d28c8f00 sched: Fix sched_setparam() policy == -1 logic
The scheduler uses policy == -1 to preserve the current policy state to
implement sched_setparam(). But, as (int) -1 is equals to 0xffffffff,
it's matching the if (policy & SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK) on
_sched_setscheduler(). This match changes the policy value to an
invalid value, breaking the sched_setparam() syscall.

This patch checks policy == -1 before check the SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag.

The following program shows the bug:

int main(void)
{
	struct sched_param param = {
		.sched_priority = 5,
	};

	sched_setscheduler(0, SCHED_FIFO, &param);
	param.sched_priority = 1;
	sched_setparam(0, &param);
	param.sched_priority = 0;
	sched_getparam(0, &param);
	if (param.sched_priority != 1)
		printf("failed priority setting (found %d instead of 1)\n",
			param.sched_priority);
	else
		printf("priority setting fine\n");

NeilBrown c1221321b7 sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout
It is currently not possible for various wait_on_bit functions
to implement a timeout.

While the "action" function that is called to do the waiting
could certainly use schedule_timeout(), there is no way to carry
forward the remaining timeout after a false wake-up.
As false-wakeups a clearly possible at least due to possible
hash collisions in bit_waitqueue(), this is a real problem.

The 'action' function is currently passed a pointer to the word
containing the bit being waited on.  No current action functions
use this pointer.  So changing it to something else will be a
little noisy but will have no immediate effect.

This patch changes the 'action' function to take a pointer to
the "struct wait_bit_key", which contains a pointer to the word
containing the bit so nothing is really lost.

It also adds a 'private' field to "struct wait_bit_key", which
is initialized to zero.

An action function can now implement a timeout with something
like

static int timed_out_waiter(struct wait_bit_key *key)
{
	unsigned long waited;
	if (key->private == 0) {
		key->private = jiffies;
		if (key->private == 0)
			key->private -= 1;
	}
	waited = jiffies - key->private;
	if (waited > 10 * HZ)
		return -EAGAIN;
	schedule_timeout(waited - 10 * HZ);
	return 0;
}

If any other need for context in a waiter were found it would be
easy to use ->private for some other purpose, or even extend
"struct wait_bit_key".

My particular need is to support timeouts in nfs_release_page()
to avoid deadlocks with loopback mounted NFS.

While wait_on_bit_timeout() would be a cleaner interface, it
will not meet my need.  I need the timeout to be sensitive to
the state of the connection with the server, which could change.
 So I need to use an 'action' interface.

NeilBrown 743162013d sched: Remove proliferation of wait_on_bit() action functions
The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().

So:
 Rename wait_on_bit and        wait_on_bit_lock to
        wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
 to make it explicit that they need an action function.

 Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
 which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
 a standard one.
 The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
 based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
 function.

 All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
 can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
 action functions have been discarded.
 wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
 event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
 interpolate their own error code as appropriate.

The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"

The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.

A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack.  So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).

Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS.  CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.

Jason Baron 5cd08fbfdb sched: Fix static_key race with sched_feat()
As pointed out by Andi Kleen, the usage of static keys can be racy in
sched_feat_disable() vs. sched_feat_enable(). Currently, we first check the
value of keys->enabled, and subsequently update the branch direction. This,
can be racy and can potentially leave the keys in an inconsistent state.

Take the i_mutex around these calls to resolve the race.

Kirill Tkhai 8875125efe sched: Transform resched_task() into resched_curr()
We always use resched_task() with rq->curr argument.
It's not possible to reschedule any task but rq's current.

The patch introduces resched_curr(struct rq *) to
replace all of the repeating patterns. The main aim
is cleanup, but there is a little size profit too:

  (before)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155274	  16445	   7042	 178761	  2ba49	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	7411490	1178376	 991232	9581098	 92322a	vmlinux

  (after)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155130	  16445	   7042	 178617	  2b9b9	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	$ size vmlinux

	7411362	1178376	 991232	9580970	 9231aa	vmlinux

	I was choosing between resched_curr() and resched_rq(),
	and the first name looks better for me.

A little lie in Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt. I have not
actually collected the tracing again. With a hope the patch
won't make execution times much worse :)

nr_switches is unsigned long and do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which
means it can test non-zero on e.g. x86-64 and be truncated to zero for
division.

Fix the problem by using div64_ul() instead.

As a side effect calculations of avg_atom for big nr_switches are now correct.

Tejun Heo 5577964e64 cgroup: rename cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes to ->legacy_cftypes
Currently, cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes is used for both the unified
default hierarchy and legacy ones and subsystems can mark each file
with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE if it has to appear
only on one of them.  This is quite hairy and error-prone.  Also, we
may end up exposing interface files to the default hierarchy without
thinking it through.

cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype arrays and apply each only
on the hierarchies of the matching type.  This will allow organizing
cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems to scrutinize
the interface which is being exposed in the new default hierarchy.

In preparation, this patch renames cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes to
cgroup_subsys->legacy_cftypes.  This patch is pure rename.

Kirill Tkhai 0e59bdaea7 sched/fair: Disable runtime_enabled on dying rq
We kill rq->rd on the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage:

	cpuset_cpu_inactive -> cpuset_update_active_cpus -> partition_sched_domains ->
	-> cpu_attach_domain -> rq_attach_root -> set_rq_offline

This unthrottles all throttled cfs_rqs.

But the cpu is still able to call schedule() till

	take_cpu_down->__cpu_disable()

is called from stop_machine.

This case the tasks from just unthrottled cfs_rqs are pickable
in a standard scheduler way, and they are picked by dying cpu.
The cfs_rqs becomes throttled again, and migrate_tasks()
in migration_call skips their tasks (one more unthrottle
in migrate_tasks()->CPU_DYING does not happen, because rq->rd
is already NULL).

Patch sets runtime_enabled to zero. This guarantees, the runtime
is not accounted, and the cfs_rqs won't exceed given
cfs_rq->runtime_remaining = 1, and tasks will be pickable
in migrate_tasks(). runtime_enabled is recalculated again
when rq becomes online again.

Ben Segall also noticed, we always enable runtime in
tg_set_cfs_bandwidth(). Actually, we should do that for online
cpus only. To prevent races with unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs()
we take get_online_cpus() lock.

Rik van Riel a22b4b0123 sched/numa: Change scan period code to match intent
Reading through the scan period code and comment, it appears the
intent was to slow down NUMA scanning when a majority of accesses
are on the local node, specifically a local:remote ratio of 3:1.

However, the code actually tests local / (local + remote), and
the actual cut-off point was around 30% local accesses, well before
a task has actually converged on a node.

Changing the threshold to 7 means scanning slows down when a task
has around 70% of its accesses local, which appears to match the
intent of the code more closely.

Running "perf bench numa mem -0 -m -P 1000 -p 8 -t 20" on a 4
node system results in 160 runnable threads on a system with 80
CPU threads.

Once a process has nearly converged, with 39 threads on one node
and 1 thread on another node, the remaining thread will be unable
to migrate to its preferred node through a task swap.

However, a simple task move would make the workload converge,
witout causing an imbalance.

Test for this unlikely occurrence, and attempt a task move to
the preferred nid when it happens.

Without this patch, this same perf bench numa mem run had to
rely on the scheduler load balancer to first balance out the
load (moving a random task), before a task swap could complete
the NUMA convergence.

The load balancer does not normally take action unless the load

difference exceeds 25%. Convergence times of over half an hour
have been observed without this patch.

With this patch, the NUMA balancing code will simply migrate the
task, if that does not cause an imbalance.

Also skip examining a CPU in detail if the improvement on that CPU
is no more than the best we already have.

Rik van Riel 6dc1a672ab sched/numa: Use effective_load() to balance NUMA loads
When CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is enabled, the load that a task places
on a CPU is determined by the group the task is in. The active groups
on the source and destination CPU can be different, resulting in a
different load contribution by the same task at its source and at its
destination. As a result, the load needs to be calculated separately
for each CPU, instead of estimated once with task_h_load().

Getting this calculation right allows some workloads to converge,
where previously the last thread could get stuck on another node,
without being able to migrate to its final destination.

Rik van Riel 28a2174519 sched/numa: Move power adjustment into load_too_imbalanced()
Currently the NUMA code scales the load on each node with the
amount of CPU power available on that node, but it does not
apply any adjustment to the load of the task that is being
moved over.

On systems with SMT/HT, this results in a task being weighed
much more heavily than a CPU core, and a task move that would
even out the load between nodes being disallowed.

The correct thing is to apply the power correction to the
numbers after we have first applied the move of the tasks'
loads to them.

This also allows us to do the power correction with a multiplication,
rather than a division.

Also drop two function arguments for load_too_unbalanced, since it
takes various factors from env already.

Rik van Riel f0b8a4afd6 sched/numa: Use group's max nid as task's preferred nid
From task_numa_placement, always try to consolidate the tasks
in a group on the group's top nid.

In case this task is part of a group that is interleaved over
multiple nodes, task_numa_migrate will set the task's preferred
nid to the best node it could find for the task, so this patch
will cause at most one run through task_numa_migrate.

Tim Chen 4486edd12b sched/fair: Implement fast idling of CPUs when the system is partially loaded
When a system is lightly loaded (i.e. no more than 1 job per cpu),
attempt to pull job to a cpu before putting it to idle is unnecessary and
can be skipped.  This patch adds an indicator so the scheduler can know
when there's no more than 1 active job is on any CPU in the system to
skip needless job pulls.

On a 4 socket machine with a request/response kind of workload from
clients, we saw about 0.13 msec delay when we go through a full load
balance to try pull job from all the other cpus.  While 0.1 msec was
spent on processing the request and generating a response, the 0.13 msec
load balance overhead was actually more than the actual work being done.
This overhead can be skipped much of the time for lightly loaded systems.

With this patch, we tested with a netperf request/response workload that
has the server busy with half the cpus in a 4 socket system.  We found
the patch eliminated 75% of the load balance attempts before idling a cpu.

The overhead of setting/clearing the indicator is low as we already gather
the necessary info while we call add_nr_running() and update_sd_lb_stats.()
We switch to full load balance load immediately if any cpu got more than
one job on its run queue in add_nr_running.  We'll clear the indicator
to avoid load balance when we detect no cpu's have more than one job
when we scan the work queues in update_sg_lb_stats().  We are aggressive
in turning on the load balance and opportunistic in skipping the load
balance.

Ben Segall c06f04c704 sched: Fix potential near-infinite distribute_cfs_runtime() loop
distribute_cfs_runtime() intentionally only hands out enough runtime to
bring each cfs_rq to 1 ns of runtime, expecting the cfs_rqs to then take
the runtime they need only once they actually get to run. However, if
they get to run sufficiently quickly, the period timer is still in
distribute_cfs_runtime() and no runtime is available, causing them to
throttle. Then distribute has to handle them again, and this can go on
until distribute has handed out all of the runtime 1ns at a time, which
takes far too long.

Instead allow access to the same runtime that distribute is handing out,
accepting that corner cases with very low quota may be able to spend the
entire cfs_b->runtime during distribute_cfs_runtime, meaning that the
runtime directly handed out by distribute_cfs_runtime was over quota. In
addition, if a cfs_rq does manage to throttle like this, make sure the
existing distribute_cfs_runtime no longer loops over it again.

Paul E. McKenney 4a81e8328d rcu: Reduce overhead of cond_resched() checks for RCU
Commit ac1bea8578 (Make cond_resched() report RCU quiescent states)
fixed a problem where a CPU looping in the kernel with but one runnable
task would give RCU CPU stall warnings, even if the in-kernel loop
contained cond_resched() calls.  Unfortunately, in so doing, it introduced
performance regressions in Anton Blanchard's will-it-scale "open1" test.
The problem appears to be not so much the increased cond_resched() path
length as an increase in the rate at which grace periods complete, which
increased per-update grace-period overhead.

This commit takes a different approach to fixing this bug, mainly by
moving the RCU-visible quiescent state from cond_resched() to
rcu_note_context_switch(), and by further reducing the check to a
simple non-zero test of a single per-CPU variable.  However, this
approach requires that the force-quiescent-state processing send
resched IPIs to the offending CPUs.  These will be sent only once
the grace period has reached an age specified by the boot/sysfs
parameter rcutree.jiffies_till_sched_qs, or once the grace period
reaches an age halfway to the point at which RCU CPU stall warnings
will be emitted, whichever comes first.

Rik van Riel a43455a1d5 sched/numa: Ensure task_numa_migrate() checks the preferred node
The first thing task_numa_migrate() does is check to see if there is
CPU capacity available on the preferred node, in order to move the
task there.

However, if the preferred node is all busy, we would skip considering
that node for tasks swaps in the subsequent loop. This prevents NUMA
convergence of tasks on busy systems.

However, swapping locations with a task on our preferred nid, when
the preferred nid is busy, is perfectly fine.

The fix is to also look for a CPU on our preferred nid when it is
totally busy.

This changes "perf bench numa mem -p 4 -t 20 -m -0 -P 1000" from
not converging in 15 minutes on my 4 node system, to converging in
10-20 seconds.

Frederic Weisbecker 3882ec6439 nohz: Use IPI implicit full barrier against rq->nr_running r/w
A full dynticks CPU is allowed to stop its tick when a single task runs.
Meanwhile when a new task gets enqueued, the CPU must be notified so that
it can restart its tick to maintain local fairness and other accounting
details.

This notification is performed by way of an IPI. Then when the target
receives the IPI, we expect it to see the new value of rq->nr_running.

Hence the following ordering scenario:

   CPU 0                   CPU 1

   write rq->running       get IPI
   smp_wmb()               smp_rmb()
   send IPI                read rq->nr_running

But Paul Mckenney says that nowadays IPIs imply a full barrier on
all architectures. So we can safely remove this pair and rely on the
implicit barriers that come along IPI send/receive. Lets
just comment on this new assumption.

Frederic Weisbecker 53c5fa16b4 nohz: Switch to nohz full remote kick on timer enqueue
When a new timer is enqueued on a full dynticks target, that CPU must
re-evaluate the next tick to handle the timer correctly.

This is currently performed through the scheduler IPI. Meanwhile this
happens at the cost of off-topic workarounds in that fast path to make
it call irq_exit().

As we plan to remove this hack off the scheduler IPI, lets use
the nohz full kick instead. Pretty much any IPI fits for that job
as long at it calls irq_exit(). The nohz full kick just happens to be
handy and readily available here.

If it happens to be too much an overkill in the future, we can still
turn that timer kick into an empty IPI.

Paul Gortmaker f602d06327 sched/deadline: Delete extraneous extern for to_ratio()
There was a prototype for it added to kernel/sched/sched.h
at the same time the extern was added, so the extern in
the C file was never really ever needed.

See commit 332ac17ef5
("sched/deadline: Add bandwidth management for SCHED_DEADLINE
tasks") for details.

Peter Zijlstra e3baac47f0 sched/idle: Optimize try-to-wake-up IPI
[ This series reduces the number of IPIs on Andy's workload by something like
  99%. It's down from many hundreds per second to very few.

  The basic idea behind this series is to make TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG be a
  reliable indication that the idle task is polling.  Once that's done,
  the rest is reasonably straightforward. ]

When enqueueing tasks on remote LLC domains, we send an IPI to do the
work 'locally' and avoid bouncing all the cachelines over.

However, when the remote CPU is idle (and polling, say x86 mwait), we
don't need to send an IPI, we can simply kick the TIF word to wake it
up and have the 'idle' loop do the work.

So when _TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is set, but _TIF_NEED_RESCHED is not (yet)
set, set _TIF_NEED_RESCHED and avoid sending the IPI.

Andy Lutomirski 82c65d60d6 sched/idle: Clear polling before descheduling the idle thread
Currently, the only real guarantee provided by the polling bit is
that, if you hold rq->lock and the polling bit is set, then you can
set need_resched to force a reschedule.

The only reason the lock is needed is that the idle thread might not
be running at all when setting its need_resched bit, and rq->lock
keeps it pinned.

This is easy to fix: just clear the polling bit before scheduling.
Now the idle thread's polling bit is only ever set when
rq->curr == rq->idle.

Nicolas Pitre ca8ce3d0b1 sched: Final power vs. capacity cleanups
It is better not to think about compute capacity as being equivalent
to "CPU power".  The upcoming "power aware" scheduler work may create
confusion with the notion of energy consumption if "power" is used too
liberally.

This contains the architecture visible changes.  Incidentally, only ARM
takes advantage of the available pow^H^H^Hcapacity scaling hooks and
therefore those changes outside kernel/sched/ are confined to one ARM
specific file.  The default arch_scale_smt_power() hook is not overridden
by anyone.

Replacements are as follows:

	arch_scale_freq_power  --> arch_scale_freq_capacity
	arch_scale_smt_power   --> arch_scale_smt_capacity
	SCHED_POWER_SCALE      --> SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
	SCHED_POWER_SHIFT      --> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT

The local usage of "power" in arch/arm/kernel/topology.c is also changed
to "capacity" as appropriate.

Tim Chen ed61bbc69c sched/balancing: Reduce the rate of needless idle load balancing
The current no_hz idle load balancer do load balancing for *all* idle cpus,
even though the time due to load balance for a particular
idle cpu could be still a while in the future.  This introduces a much
higher load balancing rate than what is necessary.  The patch
changes the behavior by only doing idle load balancing on
behalf of an idle cpu only when it is due for load balancing.

On SGI's systems with over 3000 cores, the cpu responsible for idle balancing
got overwhelmed with idle balancing, and introduces a lot of OS noise
to workloads.  This patch fixes the issue.

Ben Segall 51f2176d74 sched/fair: Fix unlocked reads of some cfs_b->quota/period
sched_cfs_period_timer() reads cfs_b->period without locks before calling
do_sched_cfs_period_timer(), and similarly unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs()
would read cfs_b->period without the right lock. Thus a simultaneous
change of bandwidth could cause corruption on any platform where ktime_t
or u64 writes/reads are not atomic.

Extend cfs_b->lock from do_sched_cfs_period_timer() to include the read of
cfs_b->period to solve that issue; unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs() can just
use 1 rather than the exact quota, much like distribute_cfs_runtime()
does.

There is also an unlocked read of cfs_b->runtime_expires, but a race
there would only delay runtime expiry by a tick. Still, the comparison
should just be != anyway, which clarifies even that problem.

Roman Gushchin 09dc4ab039 sched/fair: Fix tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() deadlock on rq->lock
tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() sets cfs_b->timer_active to 0 to
force the period timer restart. It's not safe, because
can lead to deadlock, described in commit 927b54fccbf0:
"__start_cfs_bandwidth calls hrtimer_cancel while holding rq->lock,
waiting for the hrtimer to finish. However, if sched_cfs_period_timer
runs for another loop iteration, the hrtimer can attempt to take
rq->lock, resulting in deadlock."

Three CPUs must be involved:

  CPU0               CPU1                         CPU2
  take rq->lock      period timer fired
  ...                take cfs_b lock
  ...                ...                          tg_set_cfs_bandwidth()
  throttle_cfs_rq()  release cfs_b lock           take cfs_b lock
  ...                distribute_cfs_runtime()     timer_active = 0
  take cfs_b->lock   wait for rq->lock            ...
  __start_cfs_bandwidth()
  {wait for timer callback
   break if timer_active == 1}

So, CPU0 and CPU1 are deadlocked.

Instead of resetting cfs_b->timer_active, tg_set_cfs_bandwidth can
wait for period timer callbacks (ignoring cfs_b->timer_active) and
restart the timer explicitly.

Kirill Tkhai 0f397f2c90 sched/dl: Fix race in dl_task_timer()
Throttled task is still on rq, and it may be moved to other cpu
if user is playing with sched_setaffinity(). Therefore, unlocked
task_rq() access makes the race.

Juri Lelli reports he got this race when dl_bandwidth_enabled()
was not set.

Other thing, pointed by Peter Zijlstra:

   "Now I suppose the problem can still actually happen when
    you change the root domain and trigger a effective affinity
    change that way".

To fix that we do the same as made in __task_rq_lock(). We do not
use __task_rq_lock() itself, because it has a useful lockdep check,
which is not correct in case of dl_task_timer(). We do not need
pi_lock locked here. This case is an exception (PeterZ):

   "The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
    we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
    thus free of ttwu races".

attr.sched_policy is u32, therefore a comparison against < 0 is never true.
Fix this by casting sched_policy to int.

Steven Rostedt e9dd685ce8 sched/numa: Fix use of spin_{un}lock_irq() when interrupts are disabled
As Peter Zijlstra told me, we have the following path:

do_exit()
  exit_itimers()
    itimer_delete()
      spin_lock_irqsave(&timer->it_lock, &flags);
      timer_delete_hook(timer);
        kc->timer_del(timer) := posix_cpu_timer_del()
          put_task_struct()
            __put_task_struct()
              task_numa_free()
                spin_lock(&grp->lock);

Which means that task_numa_free() can be called with interrupts
disabled, which means that we should not be using spin_lock_irq() but
spin_lock_irqsave() instead. Otherwise we are enabling interrupts while
holding an interrupt unsafe lock!

Rik van Riel 096aa33863 sched/numa: Decay ->wakee_flips instead of zeroing
Affine wakeups have the potential to interfere with NUMA placement.
If a task wakes up too many other tasks, affine wakeups will get
disabled.

However, regardless of how many other tasks it wakes up, it gets
re-enabled once a second, potentially interfering with NUMA
placement of other tasks.

By decaying wakee_wakes in half instead of zeroing it, we can avoid
that problem for some workloads.

Rik van Riel b1ad065e65 sched/numa: Update migrate_improves/degrades_locality()
Update the migrate_improves/degrades_locality() functions with
knowledge of pseudo-interleaving.

Do not consider moving tasks around within the set of group's active
nodes as improving or degrading locality. Instead, leave the load
balancer free to balance the load between a numa_group's active nodes.

Also, switch from the group/task_weight functions to the group/task_fault
functions. The "weight" functions involve a division, but both calls use
the same divisor, so there's no point in doing that from these functions.

On a 4 node (x10 core) system, performance of SPECjbb2005 seems
unaffected, though the number of migrations with 2 8-warehouse wide
instances seems to have almost halved, due to the scheduler running
each instance on a single node.

Rik van Riel e63da03639 sched/numa: Allow task switch if load imbalance improves
Currently the NUMA balancing code only allows moving tasks between NUMA
nodes when the load on both nodes is in balance. This breaks down when
the load was imbalanced to begin with.

Allow tasks to be moved between NUMA nodes if the imbalance is small,
or if the new imbalance is be smaller than the original one.

Corey Minyard a803f0261b sched: Initialize rq->age_stamp on processor start
If the sched_clock time starts at a large value, the kernel will spin
in sched_avg_update for a long time while rq->age_stamp catches up
with rq->clock.

The comment in kernel/sched/clock.c says that there is no strict promise
that it starts at zero.  So initialize rq->age_stamp when a cpu starts up
to avoid this.

I was seeing long delays on a simulator that didn't start the clock at
zero.  This might also be an issue on reboots on processors that don't
re-initialize the timer to zero on reset, and when using kexec.

Jason Low 52a08ef1f1 sched: Fix the rq->next_balance logic in rebalance_domains() and idle_balance()
Currently, in idle_balance(), we update rq->next_balance when we pull_tasks.
However, it is also important to update this in the !pulled_tasks case too.

When the CPU is "busy" (the CPU isn't idle), rq->next_balance gets computed
using sd->busy_factor (so we increase the balance interval when the CPU is
busy). However, when the CPU goes idle, rq->next_balance could still be set
to a large value that was computed with the sd->busy_factor.

Thus, we need to also update rq->next_balance in idle_balance() in the cases
where !pulled_tasks too, so that rq->next_balance gets updated without taking
the busy_factor into account when the CPU is about to go idle.

This patch makes rq->next_balance get updated independently of whether or
not we pulled_task. Also, we add logic to ensure that we always traverse
at least 1 of the sched domains to get a proper next_balance value for
updating rq->next_balance.

Additionally, since load_balance() modifies the sd->balance_interval, we
need to re-obtain the sched domain's interval after the call to
load_balance() in rebalance_domains() before we update rq->next_balance.

This patch adds and uses 2 new helper functions, update_next_balance() and
get_sd_balance_interval() to update next_balance and obtain the sched
domain's balance_interval.

Vincent Guittot c515db8cd3 sched/numa: Fix initialization of sched_domain_topology for NUMA
Jet Chen has reported a kernel panics when booting qemu-system-x86_64 with
kvm64 cpu. A panic occured while building the sched_domain.

In sched_init_numa, we create a new topology table in which both default
levels and numa levels are copied. The last row of the table must have a null
pointer in the mask field.

The current implementation doesn't add this last row in the computation of the
table size. So we add 1 row in the allocation size that will be used as the
last row of the table. The kzalloc will ensure that the mask field is NULL.

Rik van Riel 8bf21433f3 sched: Call select_idle_sibling() when not affine_sd
On smaller systems, the top level sched domain will be an affine
domain, and select_idle_sibling is invoked for every SD_WAKE_AFFINE
wakeup. This seems to be working well.

On larger systems, with the node distance between far away NUMA nodes
being > RECLAIM_DISTANCE, select_idle_sibling is only called if the
waker and the wakee are on nodes less than RECLAIM_DISTANCE apart.

This patch leaves in place the policy of not pulling the task across
nodes on such systems, while fixing the issue that select_idle_sibling
is not called at all in certain circumstances.

The code will look for an idle CPU in the same CPU package as the
CPU where the task ran previously.

Michael Kerrisk e78c7bca56 sched: Simplify return logic in sched_copy_attr()
The logic in this function is a little contorted, clean it up:

  * Rather than having chained gotos for the -EFBIG case, just
    return -EFBIG directly.

  * Now, the label 'out' is no longer needed, and 'ret' must be zero
    zero by the time we fall through to this point, so just return 0.

Ben Segall 3944a9274e sched: Fix exec_start/task_hot on migrated tasks
task_hot checks exec_start on any runnable task, but if it has been
migrated since the it last ran, then exec_start is a clock_task from
another cpu. If the old cpu's clock_task was sufficiently far ahead of
this cpu's then the task will not be considered for another migration
until it has run. Instead reset exec_start whenever a task is migrated,
since it is presumably no longer hot anyway.

Juri Lelli b0827819b0 sched/deadline: Restrict user params max value to 2^63 ns
Michael Kerrisk noticed that creating SCHED_DEADLINE reservations
with certain parameters (e.g, a runtime of something near 2^64 ns)
can cause a system freeze for some amount of time.

The problem is that in the interface we have

 u64 sched_runtime;

while internally we need to have a signed runtime (to cope with
budget overruns)

 s64 runtime;

At the time we setup a new dl_entity we copy the first value in
the second. The cast turns out with negative values when
sched_runtime is too big, and this causes the scheduler to go crazy
right from the start.

Moreover, considering how we deal with deadlines wraparound

 (s64)(a - b) < 0

we also have to restrict acceptable values for sched_{deadline,period}.

This patch fixes the thing checking that user parameters are always
below 2^63 ns (still large enough for everyone).

It also rewrites other conditions that we check, since in
__checkparam_dl we don't have to deal with deadline wraparounds
and what we have now erroneously fails when the difference between
values is too big.

Michael Kerrisk 143cf23df2 sched: Make sched_setattr() correctly return -EFBIG
The documented[1] behavior of sched_attr() in the proposed man page text is:

    sched_attr::size must be set to the size of the structure, as in
    sizeof(struct sched_attr), if the provided structure is smaller
    than the kernel structure, any additional fields are assumed
    '0'. If the provided structure is larger than the kernel structure,
    the kernel verifies all additional fields are '0' if not the
    syscall will fail with -E2BIG.

As currently implemented, sched_copy_attr() returns -EFBIG for
for this case, but the logic in sys_sched_setattr() converts that
error to -EFAULT. This patch fixes the behavior.

fundamental structural component and css_parent() was introduced to
convert from using cgroup->parent to css->parent.  It was quite some

This patch drops the trivial wrapper css_parent() and let the users
dereference css->parent.  While at it, explicitly mark fields of css
which are public and immutable.

Paul E. McKenney ac1bea8578 sched,rcu: Make cond_resched() report RCU quiescent states
Given a CPU running a loop containing cond_resched(), with no
other tasks runnable on that CPU, RCU will eventually report RCU
CPU stall warnings due to lack of quiescent states.  Fortunately,
every call to cond_resched() is a perfectly good quiescent state.
Unfortunately, invoking rcu_note_context_switch() is a bit heavyweight
for cond_resched(), especially given the need to disable preemption,
and, for RCU-preempt, interrupts as well.

This commit therefore maintains a per-CPU counter that causes
cond_resched(), cond_resched_lock(), and cond_resched_softirq() to call
rcu_note_context_switch(), but only about once per 256 invocations.
This ratio was chosen in keeping with the relative time constants of
RCU grace periods.

Peter Zijlstra fd99f91aa0 sched/idle: Avoid spurious wakeup IPIs
Because mwait_idle_with_hints() gets called from !idle context it must
call current_clr_polling(). This however means that resched_task() is
very likely to send an IPI even when we were polling:

  CPU0					CPU1

  if (current_set_polling_and_test())
    goto out;

  __monitor(&ti->flags);
  if (!need_resched())
    __mwait(eax, ecx);
					set_tsk_need_resched(p);
					smp_mb();
out:
  current_clr_polling();
					if (!tsk_is_polling(p))
					  smp_send_reschedule(cpu);

So while it is correct (extra IPIs aren't a problem, whereas a missed
IPI would be) it is a performance problem (for some).

Avoid this issue by using fetch_or() to atomically set NEED_RESCHED
and test if POLLING_NRFLAG is set.

Since a CPU stuck in mwait is unlikely to modify the flags word,
contention on the cmpxchg is unlikely and thus we should mostly
succeed in a single go.

Jason Low 39a4d9ca77 sched/fair: Stop searching for tasks in newidle balance if there are runnable tasks
It was found that when running some workloads (such as AIM7) on large
systems with many cores, CPUs do not remain idle for long. Thus, tasks
can wake/get enqueued while doing idle balancing.

In this patch, while traversing the domains in idle balance, in
addition to checking for pulled_task, we add an extra check for
this_rq->nr_running for determining if we should stop searching for
tasks to pull. If there are runnable tasks on this rq, then we will
stop traversing the domains. This reduces the chance that idle balance
delays a task from running.

This patch resulted in approximately a 6% performance improvement when
running a Java Server workload on an 8 socket machine.

Vincent Guittot 143e1e28cb sched: Rework sched_domain topology definition
We replace the old way to configure the scheduler topology with a new method
which enables a platform to declare additionnal level (if needed).

We still have a default topology table definition that can be used by platform
that don't want more level than the SMT, MC, CPU and NUMA ones. This table can
be overwritten by an arch which either wants to add new level where a load
balance make sense like BOOK or powergating level or wants to change the flags
configuration of some levels.

For each level, we need a function pointer that returns cpumask for each cpu,
a function pointer that returns the flags for the level and a name. Only flags
that describe topology, can be set by an architecture. The current topology
flags are:

 SD_SHARE_CPUPOWER
 SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES
 SD_NUMA
 SD_ASYM_PACKING

Then, each level must be a subset on the next one. The build sequence of the
sched_domain will take care of removing useless levels like those with 1 CPU
and those with the same CPU span and no more relevant information for
load balancing than its children.

Rik van Riel 68d1b02a58 sched/numa: Do not set preferred_node on migration to a second choice node
Setting the numa_preferred_node for a task in task_numa_migrate
does nothing on a 2-node system. Either we migrate to the node
that already was our preferred node, or we stay where we were.

On a 4-node system, it can slightly decrease overhead, by not
calling the NUMA code as much. Since every node tends to be
directly connected to every other node, running on the wrong
node for a while does not do much damage.

However, on an 8 node system, there are far more bad nodes
than there are good ones, and pretending that a second choice
is actually the preferred node can greatly delay, or even
prevent, a workload from converging.

The only time we can safely pretend that a second choice
node is the preferred node is when the task is part of a
workload that spans multiple NUMA nodes.

Rik van Riel 5085e2a328 sched/numa: Retry placement more frequently when misplaced
When tasks have not converged on their preferred nodes yet, we want
to retry fairly often, to make sure we do not migrate a task's memory
to an undesirable location, only to have to move it again later.

This patch reduces the interval at which migration is retried,
when the task's numa_scan_period is small.

Rik van Riel 792568ec6a sched/numa: Count pages on active node as local
The NUMA code is smart enough to distribute the memory of workloads
that span multiple NUMA nodes across those NUMA nodes.

However, it still has a pretty high scan rate for such workloads,
because any memory that is left on a node other than the node of
the CPU that faulted on the memory is counted as non-local, which
causes the scan rate to go up.

Counting the memory on any node where the task's numa group is
actively running as local, allows the scan rate to slow down
once the application is settled in.

This should reduce the overhead of the automatic NUMA placement
code, when a workload spans multiple NUMA nodes.

Jason Low 0e5b5337f0 sched: Fix updating rq->max_idle_balance_cost and rq->next_balance in idle_balance()
The following commit:

  e5fc66119e ("sched: Fix race in idle_balance()")

can potentially cause rq->max_idle_balance_cost to not be updated,
even when load_balance(NEWLY_IDLE) is attempted and the per-sd
max cost value is updated.

Preeti noticed a similar issue with updating rq->next_balance.

In this patch, we fix this by making sure we still check/update those values
even if a task gets enqueued while browsing the domains.

Peter Zijlstra 6ccdc84b81 sched: Skip double execution of pick_next_task_fair()
Tim wrote:

 "The current code will call pick_next_task_fair a second time in the
  slow path if we did not pull any task in our first try.  This is
  really unnecessary as we already know no task can be pulled and it
  doubles the delay for the cpu to enter idle.

  We instrumented some network workloads and that saw that
  pick_next_task_fair is frequently called twice before a cpu enters
  idle.  The call to pick_next_task_fair can add non trivial latency as
  it calls load_balance which runs find_busiest_group on an hierarchy of
  sched domains spanning the cpus for a large system.  For some 4 socket
  systems, we saw almost 0.25 msec spent per call of pick_next_task_fair
  before a cpu can be idled."

Optimize the second call away for the common case and document the
dependency.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 6227cb00cc sched: Use CPUPRI_NR_PRIORITIES instead of MAX_RT_PRIO in cpupri check
The check at the beginning of cpupri_find() makes sure that the task_pri
variable does not exceed the cp->pri_to_cpu array length. But that length
is CPUPRI_NR_PRIORITIES not MAX_RT_PRIO, where it will miss the last two
priorities in that array.

As task_pri is computed from convert_prio() which should never be bigger
than CPUPRI_NR_PRIORITIES, if the check should cause a panic if it is

Juri Lelli 5bfd126e80 sched/deadline: Fix sched_yield() behavior
yield_task_dl() is broken:

 o it forces current to be throttled setting its runtime to zero;
 o it sets current's dl_se->dl_new to one, expecting that dl_task_timer()
   will queue it back with proper parameters at replenish time.

Unfortunately, dl_task_timer() has this check at the very beginning:

	if (!dl_task(p) || dl_se->dl_new)
		goto unlock;

So, it just bails out and the task is never replenished. It actually
yielded forever.

To fix this, introduce a new flag indicating that the task properly yielded
the CPU before its current runtime expired. While this is a little overdoing
at the moment, the flag would be useful in the future to discriminate between
"good" jobs (of which remaining runtime could be reclaimed, i.e. recycled)
and "bad" jobs (for which dl_throttled task has been set) that needed to be
stopped.

Thomas Gleixner 2d513868e2 sched: Sanitize irq accounting madness
Russell reported, that irqtime_account_idle_ticks() takes ages due to:

       for (i = 0; i < ticks; i++)
               irqtime_account_process_tick(current, 0, rq);

It's sad, that this code was written way _AFTER_ the NOHZ idle
functionality was available. I charge myself guitly for not paying
attention when that crap got merged with commit abb74cefa ("sched:
Export ns irqtimes through /proc/stat")

So instead of looping nr_ticks times just apply the whole thing at
once.

As a side note: The whole cputime_t vs. u64 business in that context
wants to be cleaned up as well. There is no point in having all these
back and forth conversions. Lets standardise on u64 nsec for all
kernel internal accounting and be done with it. Everything else does
not make sense at all for fine grained accounting. Frederic, can you
please take care of that?

Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro which builds a kprobes
blacklist at kernel build time.

The usage of this macro is similar to EXPORT_SYMBOL(),
placed after the function definition:

  NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(function);

Since this macro will inhibit inlining of static/inline
functions, this patch also introduces a nokprobe_inline macro
for static/inline functions. In this case, we must use
NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() for the inline function caller.

When CONFIG_KPROBES=y, the macro stores the given function
address in the "_kprobe_blacklist" section.

Since the data structures are not fully initialized by the
macro (because there is no "size" information),  those
are re-initialized at boot time by using kallsyms.

Peter Zijlstra febdbfe8a9 arch: Prepare for smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic()
Since the smp_mb__{before,after}*() ops are fundamentally dependent on
how an arch can implement atomics it doesn't make sense to have 3
variants of them. They must all be the same.

Furthermore, the 3 variants suggest they're only valid for those 3
atomic ops, while we have many more where they could be applied.

So move away from
smp_mb__{before,after}_{atomic,clear}_{dec,inc,bit}() and reduce the
interface to just the two: smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic().

This patch prepares the way by introducing default implementations in
asm-generic/barrier.h that default to a full barrier and providing
__deprecated inlines for the previous 6 barriers if they're not
provided by the arch.

This should allow for a mostly painless transition (lots of deprecated
warns in the interim).

  156654f491 ("sched/numa: Move task_numa_free() to __put_task_struct()")

While I don't see how that could be, given the commit in question moved
task_numa_free() from one irq enabled region to another, the below does
make both gripes and lockups upon gripe with numa=fake=4 go away.

Gideon Israel Dsouza 52f5684c8e kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))
To increase compiler portability there is <linux/compiler.h> which
provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs.  Eg: __weak for
__attribute__((weak)).  I've replaced all instances of gcc attributes
with the right macro in the kernel subsystem.

Arnd Bergmann b8780c363d sched: remove sleep_on() and friends
This is the final piece in the puzzle, as all patches to remove the
last users of \(interruptible_\|\)sleep_on\(_timeout\|\) have made it
into the 3.15 merge window. The work was long overdue, and this
interface in particular should not have survived the BKL removal
that was done a couple of years ago.

Citing Jon Corbet from http://lwn.net/2001/0201/kernel.php3":

 "[...] it was suggested that the janitors look for and fix all code
  that calls sleep_on() [...] since (1) almost all such code is
  incorrect, and (2) Linus has agreed that those functions should
  be removed in the 2.5 development series".

We haven't quite made it for 2.5, but maybe we can merge this for 3.15.

Paul Gortmaker c96d6660dc kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of module_init in core code
Code that is obj-y (always built-in) or dependent on a bool Kconfig
(built-in or absent) can never be modular.  So using module_init as an
alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading.

Fix these up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into
module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h
to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing.

The audit targets the following module_init users for change:
 kernel/user.c                  obj-y
 kernel/kexec.c                 bool KEXEC (one instance per arch)
 kernel/profile.c               bool PROFILING
 kernel/hung_task.c             bool DETECT_HUNG_TASK
 kernel/sched/stats.c           bool SCHEDSTATS
 kernel/user_namespace.c        bool USER_NS

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs.  one of the
priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these
files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level
4-subsys (i.e.  slightly earlier).  However no observable impact of that
difference has been observed during testing.

Also, two instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed in kexec.

Linus Torvalds 32d01dc7be Merge branch 'for-3.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot updates for cgroup:

   - The biggest one is cgroup's conversion to kernfs.  cgroup took
     after the long abandoned vfs-entangled sysfs implementation and
     made it even more convoluted over time.  cgroup's internal objects
     were fused with vfs objects which also brought in vfs locking and
     object lifetime rules.  Naturally, there are places where vfs rules
     don't fit and nasty hacks, such as credential switching or lock
     dance interleaving inode mutex and cgroup_mutex with object serial
     number comparison thrown in to decide whether the operation is
     actually necessary, needed to be employed.

     After conversion to kernfs, internal object lifetime and locking
     rules are mostly isolated from vfs interactions allowing shedding
     of several nasty hacks and overall simplification.  This will also
     allow implmentation of operations which may affect multiple cgroups
     which weren't possible before as it would have required nesting
     i_mutexes.

   - Various simplifications including dropping of module support,
     easier cgroup name/path handling, simplified cgroup file type
     handling and task_cg_lists optimization.

   - Prepatory changes for the planned unified hierarchy, which is still
     a patchset away from being actually operational.  The dummy
     hierarchy is updated to serve as the default unified hierarchy.
     Controllers which aren't claimed by other hierarchies are
     associated with it, which BTW was what the dummy hierarchy was for
     anyway.

   - Various fixes from Li and others.  This pull request includes some
     patches to add missing slab.h to various subsystems.  This was
     triggered xattr.h include removal from cgroup.h.  cgroup.h
     indirectly got included a lot of files which brought in xattr.h
     which brought in slab.h.

  There are several merge commits - one to pull in kernfs updates
  necessary for converting cgroup (already in upstream through
  driver-core), others for interfering changes in the fixes branch"

Viresh Kumar 6201b4d61f timer: Remove code redundancy while calling get_nohz_timer_target()
There are only two users of get_nohz_timer_target(): timer and hrtimer. Both
call it under same circumstances, i.e.

	#ifdef CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON
	       if (!pinned && get_sysctl_timer_migration() && idle_cpu(this_cpu))
	               return get_nohz_timer_target();
	#endif

So, it makes more sense to get all this as part of get_nohz_timer_target()
instead of duplicating code at two places. For this another parameter is
required to be passed to this routine, pinned.

Frederic Weisbecker 300a9d887e sched: Remove needless round trip nsecs <-> tick conversion of steal time
When update_rq_clock_task() accounts the pending steal time for a task,
it converts the steal delta from nsecs to tick then from tick to nsecs.

There is no apparent good reason for doing that though because both
the task clock and the prev steal delta are u64 and store values
in nsecs.

So lets remove the needless conversion.

Frederic Weisbecker dee08a72de cputime: Fix jiffies based cputime assumption on steal accounting
The steal guest time accounting code assumes that cputime_t is based on
jiffies. So when CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, which implies that cputime_t
is based on nsecs, steal_account_process_tick() passes the delta in
jiffies to account_steal_time() which then accounts it as if it's a
value in nsecs.

As a result, accounting 1 second of steal time (with HZ=100 that would
be 100 jiffies) is spuriously accounted as 100 nsecs.

As such /proc/stat may report 0 values of steal time even when two
guests have run concurrently for a few seconds on the same host and
same CPU.

In order to fix this, lets convert the nsecs based steal delta to
cputime instead of jiffies by using the right conversion API.

Given that the steal time is stored in cputime_t and this type can have
a smaller granularity than nsecs, we only account the rounded converted
value and leave the remaining nsecs for the next deltas.

Steven Rostedt 383afd0971 sched: Fix broken setscheduler()
I decided to run my tests on linux-next, and my wakeup_rt tracer was
broken. After running a bisect, I found that the problem commit was:

   linux-next commit c365c292d0
   "sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()"

And the reason the wake_rt tracer test was failing, was because it had
no RT task to trace. I first noticed this when running with
sched_switch event and saw that my RT task still had normal SCHED_OTHER
priority. Looking at the problem commit, I found:

 -       p->normal_prio = normal_prio(p);
 -       p->prio = rt_mutex_getprio(p);

With no

 +       p->normal_prio = normal_prio(p);
 +       p->prio = rt_mutex_getprio(p);

Reading what the commit is suppose to do, I realize that the p->prio
can't be set if the task is boosted with a higher prio, but the
p->normal_prio still needs to be set regardless, otherwise, when the
task is deboosted, it wont get the new priority.

The p->prio has to be set before "check_class_changed()" is called,
otherwise the class wont be changed.

Also added fix to newprio to include a check for deadline policy that
was missing. This change was suggested by Juri Lelli.

Kirill Tkhai 4c6c4e38c4 sched/core: Fix endless loop in pick_next_task()
1) Single cpu machine case.

When rq has only RT tasks, but no one of them can be picked
because of throttling, we enter in endless loop.

pick_next_task_{dl,rt} return NULL.

In pick_next_task_fair() we permanently go to retry

	if (rq->nr_running != rq->cfs.h_nr_running)
		return RETRY_TASK;

(rq->nr_running is not being decremented when rt_rq becomes
throttled).

No chances to unthrottle any rt_rq or to wake fair here,
because of rq is locked permanently and interrupts are
disabled.

2) In case of SMP this can cause a hang too. Although we unlock
   rq in idle_balance(), interrupts are still disabled.

The solution is to check for available tasks in DL and RT
classes instead of checking for sum.

Kirill Tkhai 734ff2a71f sched/rt: Fix picking RT and DL tasks from empty queue
The problems:

1) We check for rt_nr_running before call of put_prev_task().
   If previous task is RT, its rt_rq may become throttled
   and dequeued after this call.

In case of p is from rt->rq this just causes picking a task
from throttled queue, but in case of its rt_rq is child
we are guaranteed catch BUG_ON.

2) The same with deadline class. The only difference we operate
   on only dl_rq.

This patch fixes all the above problems and it adds a small skip in the
DL update like we've already done for RT class:

	if (unlikely((s64)delta_exec <= 0))
		return;

This will optimize sequential update_curr_dl() calls a little.

Peter Zijlstra 37e117c07b sched: Guarantee task priority in pick_next_task()
Michael spotted that the idle_balance() push down created a task
priority problem.

Previously, when we called idle_balance() before pick_next_task() it
wasn't a problem when -- because of the rq->lock droppage -- an rt/dl
task slipped in.

Similarly for pre_schedule(), rt pre-schedule could have a dl task
slip in.

But by pulling it into the pick_next_task() loop, we'll not try a
higher task priority again.

Cure this by creating a re-start condition in pick_next_task(); and
triggering this from pick_next_task_{rt,fair}().

It also fixes a live-lock where we get stuck in pick_next_task_fair()
due to idle_balance() seeing !0 nr_running but there not actually
being any fair tasks about.

Dietmar Eggemann f5f9739d7a sched: Put rq's sched_avg under CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED
The struct sched_avg of struct rq is only used in case group
scheduling is enabled inside __update_tg_runnable_avg() to update
per-cpu representation of a task group.  I.e. that there is no need to
maintain the runnable avg of a rq in the !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED case.

This patch guards struct sched_avg of struct rq and
update_rq_runnable_avg() with CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.

There is an extra empty definition for update_rq_runnable_avg()
necessary for the !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED && CONFIG_SMP case.

The function print_cfs_group_stats() which prints out struct sched_avg
of struct rq is already guarded with CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.

Juri Lelli faa5993736 sched/deadline: Prevent rt_time growth to infinity
Kirill Tkhai noted:

  Since deadline tasks share rt bandwidth, we must care about
  bandwidth timer set. Otherwise rt_time may grow up to infinity
  in update_curr_dl(), if there are no other available RT tasks
  on top level bandwidth.

RT task were in fact throttled right after they got enqueued,
and never executed again (rt_time never again went below rt_runtime).

Peter then proposed to accrue DL execution on rt_time only when
rt timer is active, and proposed a patch (this patch is a slight
modification of that) to implement that behavior. While this
solves Kirill problem, it has a drawback.

Indeed, Kirill noted again:

  It looks we may get into a situation, when all CPU time is shared
  between RT and DL tasks:

  rt_runtime = n
  rt_period  = 2n

  | RT working, DL sleeping  | DL working, RT sleeping      |
  -----------------------------------------------------------
  | (1)     duration = n     | (2)     duration = n         | (repeat)
  |--------------------------|------------------------------|
  | (rt_bw timer is running) | (rt_bw timer is not running) |

  No time for fair tasks at all.

While this can happen during the first period, if rq is always backlogged,
RT tasks won't have the opportunity to execute anymore: rt_time reached
rt_runtime during (1), suppose after (2) RT is enqueued back, it gets
throttled since rt timer didn't fire, replenishment is from now on eaten up
by DL tasks that accrue their execution on rt_time (while rt timer is
active - we have an RT task waiting for replenishment). FAIR tasks are
not touched after this first period. Ok, this is not ideal, and the situation
is even worse!

What above (the nice case), practically never happens in reality, where
your rt timer is not aligned to tasks periods, tasks are in general not
periodic, etc.. Long story short, you always risk to overload your system.

This patch is based on Peter's idea, but exploits an additional fact:
if you don't have RT tasks enqueued, it makes little sense to continue
incrementing rt_time once you reached the upper limit (DL tasks have their
own mechanism for throttling).

This cures both problems:

 - no matter how many DL instances in the past, you'll have an rt_time
   slightly above rt_runtime when an RT task is enqueued, and from that
   point on (after the first replenishment), the task will normally execute;

 - you can still eat up all bandwidth during the first period, but not
   anymore after that, remember that DL execution will increment rt_time
   till the upper limit is reached.

The situation is still not perfect! But, we have a simple solution for now,
that limits how much you can jeopardize your system, as we keep working
towards the right answer: RT groups scheduled using deadline servers.

which appears to guarentee that the !se->on_rq condition is met.

In certain cases this can result in the task's vruntime never increasing

CPU time.

This patch changes switched_from_fair() to use !p->on_rq instead of
!se->on_rq.

Frederic Weisbecker c46fff2a3b smp: Rename __smp_call_function_single() to smp_call_function_single_async()
The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().

The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.

As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.

Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

Frederic Weisbecker fce8ad1568 smp: Remove wait argument from __smp_call_function_single()
The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.

This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.

This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.

Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:

1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
   in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
   sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.

   But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
   can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
   and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.

   Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
   because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
   for this csd.

2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
   is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
   can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
   stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.

Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.

There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.

Thomas Gleixner c365c292d0 sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()
If a PI boosted task policy/priority is modified by a setscheduler()
call we unconditionally dequeue and requeue the task if it is on the
runqueue even if the new priority is lower than the current effective
boosted priority. This can result in undesired reordering of the
priority bucket list.

If the new priority is less or equal than the current effective we
just store the new parameters in the task struct and leave the
scheduler class and the runqueue untouched. This is handled when the
task deboosts itself. Only if the new priority is higher than the
effective boosted priority we apply the change immediately.

Thomas Gleixner 81a44c5441 sched: Queue RT tasks to head when prio drops
The following scenario does not work correctly:

Runqueue of CPUx contains two runnable and pinned tasks:

 T1: SCHED_FIFO, prio 80
 T2: SCHED_FIFO, prio 80

T1 is on the cpu and executes the following syscalls (classic priority
ceiling scenario):

 sys_sched_setscheduler(pid(T1), SCHED_FIFO, .prio = 90);
 ...
 sys_sched_setscheduler(pid(T1), SCHED_FIFO, .prio = 80);
 ...

Now T1 gets preempted by T3 (SCHED_FIFO, prio 95). After T3 goes back
to sleep the scheduler picks T2. Surprise!

The same happens w/o actual preemption when T1 is forced into the
scheduler due to a sporadic NEED_RESCHED event. The scheduler invokes
pick_next_task() which returns T2. So T1 gets preempted and scheduled
out.

This happens because sched_setscheduler() dequeues T1 from the prio 90
list and then enqueues it on the tail of the prio 80 list behind T2.
This violates the POSIX spec and surprises user space which relies on
the guarantee that SCHED_FIFO tasks are not scheduled out unless they
give the CPU up voluntarily or are preempted by a higher priority
task. In the latter case the preempted task must get back on the CPU
after the preempting task schedules out again.

We fixed a similar issue already in commit 60db48c (sched: Queue a
deboosted task to the head of the RT prio queue). The same treatment
is necessary for sched_setscheduler(). So enqueue to head of the prio
bucket list if the priority of the task is lowered.

It might be possible that existing user space relies on the current
behaviour, but it can be considered highly unlikely due to the corner
case nature of the application scenario.

Thomas Gleixner 77177856e3 sched: Init idle->on_rq in init_idle()
We stumbled in RT over a SMP bringup issue on ARM where the
idle->on_rq == 0 was causing try_to_wakeup() on the other cpu to run
into nada land.

After adding that idle->on_rq = 1; I was able to find the root cause
of the lockup: the idle task on the newly woken up cpu was fiddling
with a sleeping spinlock, which is a nono.

I kept the init of idle->on_rq to keep the state consistent and to
avoid another long lasting debug session.

As a side note, the whole debug mess could have been avoided if
might_sleep() would have yelled when called from the idle task. That's
fixed with patch 2/6 - and that one actually has a changelog :)

Peter Zijlstra 3f1d2a3181 sched: Fix hotplug task migration
Dan Carpenter reported:

> kernel/sched/deadline.c:1011 pick_next_task_dl() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'prev' (see line 1005)

Kirill also spotted that migrate_tasks() will have an instant NULL
deref because pick_next_task() will immediately deref prev.

Instead of fixing all the corner cases because migrate_tasks() can
pass in a NULL prev task in the unlikely case of hot-un-plug, provide
a fake task such that we can remove all the NULL checks from the far
more common paths.

A further problem; not previously spotted; is that because we pushed
pre_schedule() and idle_balance() into pick_next_task() we now need to
avoid those getting called and pulling more tasks on our dying CPU.

We avoid pull_{dl,rt}_task() by setting fake_task.prio to MAX_PRIO+1.
We also note that since we call pick_next_task() exactly the amount of
times we have runnable tasks present, we should never land in
idle_balance().

Steven Rostedt 4df1638cfa sched/deadline: Fix overflow to handle period==0 and deadline!=0
While debugging the crash with the bad nr_running accounting, I hit
another bug where, after running my sched deadline test, I was getting
failures to take a CPU offline. It was giving me a -EBUSY error.

Adding a bunch of trace_printk()s around, I found that the cpu
notifier that called sched_cpu_inactive() was returning a failure. The
overflow value was coming up negative?

Talking this over with Juri, the problem is that the total_bw update was
suppose to be made by dl_overflow() which, during my tests, seemed to
not be called. Adding more trace_printk()s, it wasn't that it wasn't
called, but it exited out right away with the check of new_bw being
equal to p->dl.dl_bw. The new_bw calculates the ratio between period and
runtime. The bug is that if you set a deadline, you do not need to set
a period if you plan on the period being equal to the deadline. That
is, if period is zero and deadline is not, then the system call should
set the period to be equal to the deadline. This is done elsewhere in
the code.

The fix is easy, check if period is set, and if it is not, then use the
deadline.

Juri Lelli 3d5f35bdfd sched/deadline: Fix bad accounting of nr_running
Rostedt writes:

My test suite was locking up hard when enabling mmiotracer. This was due
to the mmiotracer placing all but one CPU offline. I found this out
when I was able to reproduce the bug with just my stress-cpu-hotplug
test. This bug baffled me because it would not always trigger, and
would only trigger on the first run after boot up. The
stress-cpu-hotplug test would crash hard the first run, or never crash
at all. But a new reboot may cause it to crash on the first run again.

I spent all week bisecting this, as I couldn't find a consistent
reproducer. I finally narrowed it down to the sched deadline patches,
and even more peculiar, to the commit that added the sched
deadline boot up self test to the latency tracer. Then it dawned on me
to what the bug was.

All it took was to run a task under sched deadline to screw up the CPU
hot plugging. This explained why it would lock up only on the first run
of the stress-cpu-hotplug test. The bug happened when the boot up self
test of the schedule latency tracer would test a deadline task. The
deadline task would corrupt something that would cause CPU hotplug to
fail. If it didn't corrupt it, the stress test would always work
(there's no other sched deadline tasks that would run to cause
problems). If it did corrupt on boot up, the first test would lockup
hard.

I proved this theory by running my deadline test program on another box,
and then run the stress-cpu-hotplug test, and it would now consistently
lock up. I could run stress-cpu-hotplug over and over with no problem,
but once I ran the deadline test, the next run of the
stress-cpu-hotplug would lock hard.

After adding lots of tracing to the code, I found the cause. The
function tracer showed that migrate_tasks() was stuck in an infinite
loop, where rq->nr_running never equaled 1 to break out of it. When I
added a trace_printk() to see what that number was, it was 335 and
never decrementing!

Looking at the deadline code I found:

static void __dequeue_task_dl(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p, int flags) {
	dequeue_dl_entity(&p->dl);
	dequeue_pushable_dl_task(rq, p);
}

static void dequeue_task_dl(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p, int flags) {
	update_curr_dl(rq);
	__dequeue_task_dl(rq, p, flags);

	dec_nr_running(rq);
}

And this:

	if (dl_runtime_exceeded(rq, dl_se)) {
		__dequeue_task_dl(rq, curr, 0);
		if (likely(start_dl_timer(dl_se, curr->dl.dl_boosted)))
			dl_se->dl_throttled = 1;
		else
			enqueue_task_dl(rq, curr, ENQUEUE_REPLENISH);

		if (!is_leftmost(curr, &rq->dl))
			resched_task(curr);
	}

Notice how we call __dequeue_task_dl() and in the else case we
call enqueue_task_dl()? Also notice that dequeue_task_dl() has
underscores where enqueue_task_dl() does not. The enqueue_task_dl()
calls inc_nr_running(rq), but __dequeue_task_dl() does not. This is
where we get nr_running out of sync.

[snip]

Another point where nr_running can get out of sync is when the dl_timer
fires:

	dl_se->dl_throttled = 0;

		if (task_has_dl_policy(rq->curr))
			check_preempt_curr_dl(rq, p, 0);
		else
			resched_task(rq->curr);

This patch does two things:

 - correctly accounts for throttled tasks (that are now considered
   !running);

 - fixes the bug, updating nr_running from {inc,dec}_dl_tasks(),
   since we risk to update it twice in some situations (e.g., a
   task is dequeued while it has exceeded its budget).

Martin Schwidefsky a53efe5ff8 sched/mm: call finish_arch_post_lock_switch in idle_task_exit and use_mm
The finish_arch_post_lock_switch is called at the end of the task
switch after all locks have been released. In concept it is paired
with the switch_mm function, but the current code only does the
call in finish_task_switch. Add the call to idle_task_exit and
use_mm. One use case for the additional calls is s390 which will
use finish_arch_post_lock_switch to wait for the completion of
TLB flush operations.

Tejun Heo 924f0d9a20 cgroup: drop @skip_css from cgroup_taskset_for_each()
If !NULL, @skip_css makes cgroup_taskset_for_each() skip the matching
css.  The intention of the interface is to make it easy to skip css's
(cgroup_subsys_states) which already match the migration target;
however, this is entirely unnecessary as migration taskset doesn't
include tasks which are already in the target cgroup.  Drop @skip_css
from cgroup_taskset_for_each().

Tejun Heo e61734c55c cgroup: remove cgroup->name
cgroup->name handling became quite complicated over time involving
dedicated struct cgroup_name for RCU protection.  Now that cgroup is
on kernfs, we can drop all of it and simply use kernfs_name/path() and
friends.  Replace cgroup->name and all related code with kernfs
name/path constructs.

* Reimplement cgroup_name() and cgroup_path() as thin wrappers on top
  of kernfs counterparts, which involves semantic changes.
  pr_cont_cgroup_name() and pr_cont_cgroup_path() added.

* cgroup->name handling dropped from cgroup_rename().

* All users of cgroup_name/path() updated to the new semantics.  Users
  which were formatting the string just to printk them are converted
  to use pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() instead, which simplifies things
  quite a bit.  As cgroup_name() no longer requires RCU read lock
  around it, RCU lockings which were protecting only cgroup_name() are
  removed.

v2: Comment above oom_info_lock updated as suggested by Michal.

v3: dummy_top doesn't have a kn associated and
    pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() ended up calling the matching kernfs
    functions with NULL kn leading to oops.  Test for NULL kn and
    print "/" if so.  This issue was reported by Fengguang Wu.

v4: Rebased on top of 0ab02ca8f8 ("cgroup: protect modifications to
    cgroup_idr with cgroup_mutex").

Peter Zijlstra 38033c37fa sched: Push down pre_schedule() and idle_balance()
This patch both merged idle_balance() and pre_schedule() and pushes
both of them into pick_next_task().

Conceptually pre_schedule() and idle_balance() are rather similar,
both are used to pull more work onto the current CPU.

We cannot however first move idle_balance() into pre_schedule_fair()
since there is no guarantee the last runnable task is a fair task, and
thus we would miss newidle balances.

Similarly, the dl and rt pre_schedule calls must be ran before
idle_balance() since their respective tasks have higher priority and
it would not do to delay their execution searching for less important
tasks first.

However, by noticing that pick_next_tasks() already traverses the
sched_class hierarchy in the right order, we can get the right
behaviour and do away with both calls.

We must however change the special case optimization to also require
that prev is of sched_class_fair, otherwise we can miss doing a dl or
rt pull where we needed one.

Since commit 2f36825b1 ("sched: Next buddy hint on sleep and preempt
path") it is likely we pick a new task from the same cgroup, doing a put
and then set on all intermediate entities is a waste of time, so try to
avoid this.

Measured using:

  mount nodev /cgroup -t cgroup -o cpu
  cd /cgroup
  mkdir a; cd a
  mkdir b; cd b
  mkdir c; cd c
  echo $$ > tasks
  perf stat --repeat 10 -- taskset 1 perf bench sched pipe

Daniel Lezcano 3c4017c13f sched: Move rq->idle_stamp up to the core
idle_balance() modifies the rq->idle_stamp field, making this information
shared across core.c and fair.c.

As we know if the cpu is going to idle or not with the previous patch, let's
encapsulate the rq->idle_stamp information in core.c by moving it up to the
caller.

The idle_balance() function returns true in case a balancing occured and the
cpu won't be idle, false if no balance happened and the cpu is going idle.

Daniel Lezcano e5fc66119e sched: Fix race in idle_balance()
The scheduler main function 'schedule()' checks if there are no more tasks
on the runqueue. Then it checks if a task should be pulled in the current
runqueue in idle_balance() assuming it will go to idle otherwise.

But idle_balance() releases the rq->lock in order to look up the sched
domains and takes the lock again right after. That opens a window where
another cpu may put a task in our runqueue, so we won't go to idle but
we have filled the idle_stamp, thinking we will.

This patch closes the window by checking if the runqueue has been modified
but without pulling a task after taking the lock again, so we won't go to idle
right after in the __schedule() function.
