Peter Zijlstra 0e2d2aaaae sched/fair: Rewrite PELT migration propagation
When an entity migrates in (or out) of a runqueue, we need to add (or
remove) its contribution from the entire PELT hierarchy, because even
non-runnable entities are included in the load average sums.

In order to do this we have some propagation logic that updates the
PELT tree, however the way it 'propagates' the runnable (or load)
change is (more or less):

                     tg->weight * grq->avg.load_avg
  ge->avg.load_avg = ------------------------------
                               tg->load_avg

But that is the expression for ge->weight, and per the definition of
load_avg:

  ge->avg.load_avg := ge->weight * ge->avg.runnable_avg

That destroys the runnable_avg (by setting it to 1) we wanted to
propagate.

Instead directly propagate runnable_sum.

Peter Zijlstra 2a2f5d4e44 sched/fair: Rewrite cfs_rq->removed_*avg
Since on wakeup migration we don't hold the rq->lock for the old CPU
we cannot update its state. Instead we add the removed 'load' to an
atomic variable and have the next update on that CPU collect and
process it.

Currently we have 2 atomic variables; which already have the issue
that they can be read out-of-sync. Also, two atomic ops on a single
cacheline is already more expensive than an uncontended lock.

Since we want to add more, convert the thing over to an explicit
cacheline with a lock in.

Vincent Guittot 9059393e4e sched/fair: Use reweight_entity() for set_user_nice()
Now that we directly change load_avg and propagate that change into
the sums, sys_nice() and co should do the same, otherwise its possible
to confuse load accounting when we migrate near the weight change.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This time (again) cpufreq gets the majority of changes which mostly
  are driver updates (including a major consolidation of intel_pstate),
  some schedutil governor modifications and core cleanups.

  There also are some changes in the system suspend area, mostly related
  to diagnostics and debug messages plus some renames of things related
  to suspend-to-idle. One major change here is that suspend-to-idle is
  now going to be preferred over S3 on systems where the ACPI tables
  indicate to do so and provide requsite support (the Low Power Idle S0
  _DSM in particular). The system sleep documentation and the tools
  related to it are updated too.

  The rest is a few cpuidle changes (nothing major), devfreq updates,
  generic power domains (genpd) framework updates and a few assorted
  modifications elsewhere.

  Specifics:

   - Drop the P-state selection algorithm based on a PID controller from
     intel_pstate and make it use the same P-state selection method

Ying Huang 966a967116 smp: Avoid using two cache lines for struct call_single_data
struct call_single_data is used in IPIs to transfer information between
CPUs.  Its size is bigger than sizeof(unsigned long) and less than
cache line size.  Currently it is not allocated with any explicit alignment
requirements.  This makes it possible for allocated call_single_data to
cross two cache lines, which results in double the number of the cache lines
that need to be transferred among CPUs.

This can be fixed by requiring call_single_data to be aligned with the
size of call_single_data. Currently the size of call_single_data is the
power of 2.  If we add new fields to call_single_data, we may need to
add padding to make sure the size of new definition is the power of 2
as well.

Fortunately, this is enforced by GCC, which will report bad sizes.

To set alignment requirements of call_single_data to the size of
call_single_data, a struct definition and a typedef is used.

To test the effect of the patch, I used the vm-scalability multiple
thread swap test case (swap-w-seq-mt).  The test will create multiple
threads and each thread will eat memory until all RAM and part of swap
is used, so that huge number of IPIs are triggered when unmapping
memory.  In the test, the throughput of memory writing improves ~5%
compared with misaligned call_single_data, because of faster IPIs.

Peter Zijlstra bbdacdfed2 sched/debug: Optimize sched_domain sysctl generation
Currently we unconditionally destroy all sysctl bits and regenerate
them after we've rebuild the domains (even if that rebuild is a
no-op).

And since we unconditionally (re)build the sysctl for all possible
CPUs, onlining all CPUs gets us O(n^2) time. Instead change this to
only rebuild the bits for CPUs we've actually installed new domains
on.

Viresh Kumar 674e75411f sched: cpufreq: Allow remote cpufreq callbacks
With Android UI and benchmarks the latency of cpufreq response to
certain scheduling events can become very critical. Currently, callbacks
into cpufreq governors are only made from the scheduler if the target
CPU of the event is the same as the current CPU. This means there are
certain situations where a target CPU may not run the cpufreq governor
for some time.

One testcase to show this behavior is where a task starts running on
CPU0, then a new task is also spawned on CPU0 by a task on CPU1. If the
system is configured such that the new tasks should receive maximum
demand initially, this should result in CPU0 increasing frequency
immediately. But because of the above mentioned limitation though, this
does not occur.

This patch updates the scheduler core to call the cpufreq callbacks for
remote CPUs as well.

The schedutil, ondemand and conservative governors are updated to
process cpufreq utilization update hooks called for remote CPUs where
the remote CPU is managed by the cpufreq policy of the local CPU.

The intel_pstate driver is updated to always reject remote callbacks.

This is tested with couple of usecases (Android: hackbench, recentfling,
galleryfling, vellamo, Ubuntu: hackbench) on ARM hikey board (64 bit
octa-core, single policy). Only galleryfling showed minor improvements,
while others didn't had much deviation.

The reason being that this patch only targets a corner case, where
following are required to be true to improve performance and that
doesn't happen too often with these tests:

- Task is migrated to another CPU.
- The task has high demand, and should take the target CPU to higher
  OPPs.
- And the target CPU doesn't call into the cpufreq governor until the
  next tick.

Based on initial work from Steve Muckle.

 #define SCHED_WARN_ON(x)        ((void)(x))

is not fully compatible with the 'real' WARN_ON_ONCE() primitive, as it
has no return value, so it cannot be used in conditionals.

Fix it.

Luca Abeni daec579836 sched/deadline: Reclaim bandwidth not used by dl tasks
This commit introduces a per-runqueue "extra utilization" that can be
reclaimed by deadline tasks. In this way, the maximum fraction of CPU
time that can reclaimed by deadline tasks is fixed (and configurable)
and does not depend on the total deadline utilization.
The GRUB accounting rule is modified to add this "extra utilization"
to the inactive utilization of the runqueue, and to avoid reclaiming
more than a maximum fraction of the CPU time.

Luca Abeni 4da3abcefe sched/deadline: Do not reclaim the whole CPU bandwidth
Original GRUB tends to reclaim 100% of the CPU time... And this
allows a CPU hog to starve non-deadline tasks.
To address this issue, allow the scheduler to reclaim only a
specified fraction of CPU time, stored in the new "bw_ratio"
field of the dl runqueue structure.

According to the GRUB (Greedy Reclaimation of Unused Bandwidth)
reclaiming algorithm, the runtime is not decreased as "dq = -dt",
but as "dq = -Uact dt" (where Uact is the per-runqueue active

Hence, this commit modifies the runtime accounting rule in

This patch implements a more theoretically sound algorithm for
tracking active utilization: instead of decreasing it when a
task blocks, use a timer (the "inactive timer", named after the
"Inactive" task state of the GRUB algorithm) to decrease the
active utilization at the so called "0-lag time".

Luca Abeni e36d8677bf sched/deadline: Track the active utilization
Active utilization is defined as the total utilization of active
(TASK_RUNNING) tasks queued on a runqueue. Hence, it is increased
when a task wakes up and is decreased when a task blocks.

When a task is migrated from CPUi to CPUj, immediately subtract the
task's utilization from CPUi and add it to CPUj. This mechanism is
implemented by modifying the pull and push functions.
Note: this is not fully correct from the theoretical point of view
(the utilization should be removed from CPUi only at the 0 lag
time), a more theoretically sound solution is presented in the
next patches.

Peter Zijlstra 005f874dd2 sched/topology: Add sched_group_capacity debugging
Add sgc::id to easier spot domain construction issues.

Take the opportunity to slightly rework the group printing, because
adding more "(id: %d)" strings makes the entire thing very hard to
read. Also the individual groups are very hard to separate, so add
explicit visual grouping, which allows replacing all the "(%s: %d)"
format things with shorter "%s=%d" variants.

Then fix up some inconsistencies in surrounding prints for domains.

The end result looks like:

  [] CPU0 attaching sched-domain(s):
  []  domain-0: span=0,4 level=DIE
  []   groups: 0:{ span=0 }, 4:{ span=4 }
  []   domain-1: span=0-1,3-5,7 level=NUMA
  []    groups: 0:{ span=0,4 mask=0,4 cap=2048 }, 1:{ span=1,5 mask=1,5 cap=2048 }, 3:{ span=3,7 mask=3,7 cap=2048 }

Steven Rostedt (VMware) 8663effb24 sched/core: Call __schedule() from do_idle() without enabling preemption
I finally got around to creating trampolines for dynamically allocated
ftrace_ops with using synchronize_rcu_tasks(). For users of the ftrace
function hook callbacks, like perf, that allocate the ftrace_ops
descriptor via kmalloc() and friends, ftrace was not able to optimize
the functions being traced to use a trampoline because they would also
need to be allocated dynamically. The problem is that they cannot be
freed when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set, as there's no way to tell if a task
was preempted on the trampoline. That was before Paul McKenney
implemented synchronize_rcu_tasks() that would make sure all tasks
(except idle) have scheduled out or have entered user space.

While testing this, I triggered this bug:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa0230077
 ...
 RIP: 0010:0xffffffffa0230077
 ...
 Call Trace:
  schedule+0x5/0xe0
  schedule_preempt_disabled+0x18/0x30
  do_idle+0x172/0x220

What happened was that the idle task was preempted on the trampoline.
As synchronize_rcu_tasks() ignores the idle thread, there's nothing
that lets ftrace know that the idle task was preempted on a trampoline.

The idle task shouldn't need to ever enable preemption. The idle task
is simply a loop that calls schedule or places the cpu into idle mode.
In fact, having preemption enabled is inefficient, because it can
happen when idle is just about to call schedule anyway, which would
cause schedule to be called twice. Once for when the interrupt came in
and was returning back to normal context, and then again in the normal
path that the idle loop is running in, which would be pointless, as it
had already scheduled.

The only reason schedule_preempt_disable() enables preemption is to be
able to call sched_submit_work(), which requires preemption enabled. As
this is a nop when the task is in the RUNNING state, and idle is always
in the running state, there's no reason that idle needs to enable
preemption. But that means it cannot use schedule_preempt_disable() as
other callers of that function require calling sched_submit_work().

Adding a new function local to kernel/sched/ that allows idle to call
the scheduler without enabling preemption, fixes the
synchronize_rcu_tasks() issue, as well as removes the pointless spurious
schedule calls caused by interrupts happening in the brief window where
preemption is enabled just before it calls schedule.

Frederic Weisbecker 25e2d8c1b9 sched/cputime: Fix ksoftirqd cputime accounting regression
irq_time_read() returns the irqtime minus the ksoftirqd time. This
is necessary because irq_time_read() is used to substract the IRQ time
from the sum_exec_runtime of a task. If we were to include the softirq
time of ksoftirqd, this task would substract its own CPU time everytime
it updates ksoftirqd->sum_exec_runtime which would therefore never
progress.

But this behaviour got broken by:

  a499a5a14d ("sched/cputime: Increment kcpustat directly on irqtime account")

... which now includes ksoftirqd softirq time in the time returned by
irq_time_read().

This has resulted in wrong ksoftirqd cputime reported to userspace
through /proc/stat and thus "top" not showing ksoftirqd when it should
after intense networking load.

ksoftirqd->stime happens to be correct but it gets scaled down by
sum_exec_runtime through task_cputime_adjusted().

To fix this, just account the strict IRQ time in a separate counter and
use it to report the IRQ time.

Frederic Weisbecker a499a5a14d sched/cputime: Increment kcpustat directly on irqtime account
The irqtime is accounted is nsecs and stored in
cpu_irq_time.hardirq_time and cpu_irq_time.softirq_time. Once the
accumulated amount reaches a new jiffy, this one gets accounted to the
kcpustat.

This was necessary when kcpustat was stored in cputime_t, which could at
worst have jiffies granularity. But now kcpustat is stored in nsecs
so this whole discretization game with temporary irqtime storage has
become unnecessary.

We can now directly account the irqtime to the kcpustat.

Matt Fleming cb42c9a3eb sched/core: Add debugging code to catch missing update_rq_clock() calls
There's no diagnostic checks for figuring out when we've accidentally
missed update_rq_clock() calls. Let's add some by piggybacking on the
rq_*pin_lock() wrappers.

The idea behind the diagnostic checks is that upon pining rq lock the
rq clock should be updated, via update_rq_clock(), before anybody
reads the clock with rq_clock() or rq_clock_task().

The exception to this rule is when updates have explicitly been
disabled with the rq_clock_skip_update() optimisation.

There are some functions that only unpin the rq lock in order to grab
some other lock and avoid deadlock. In that case we don't need to
update the clock again and the previous diagnostic state can be
carried over in rq_repin_lock() by saving the state in the rq_flags
context.

Since this patch adds a new clock update flag and some already exist
in rq::clock_skip_update, that field has now been renamed. An attempt
has been made to keep the flag manipulation code small and fast since
it's used in the heart of the __schedule() fast path.

For the !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG case the only object code change (other
than addresses) is the following change to reset RQCF_ACT_SKIP inside
of __schedule(),

  -       c7 83 38 09 00 00 00    movl   $0x0,0x938(%rbx)
  -       00 00 00
  +       83 a3 38 09 00 00 fc    andl   $0xfffffffc,0x938(%rbx)

Tim Chen afe06efdf0 sched: Extend scheduler's asym packing
We generalize the scheduler's asym packing to provide an ordering
of the cpu beyond just the cpu number.  This allows the use of the
ASYM_PACKING scheduler machinery to move loads to preferred CPU in a
sched domain. The preference is defined with the cpu priority
given by arch_asym_cpu_priority(cpu).

We also record the most preferred cpu in a sched group when
we build the cpu's capacity for fast lookup of preferred cpu
during load balancing.

Vincent Guittot 09a43ace1f sched/fair: Propagate load during synchronous attach/detach
When a task moves from/to a cfs_rq, we set a flag which is then used to
propagate the change at parent level (sched_entity and cfs_rq) during
next update. If the cfs_rq is throttled, the flag will stay pending until
the cfs_rq is unthrottled.

For propagating the utilization, we copy the utilization of group cfs_rq to
the sched_entity.

For propagating the load, we have to take into account the load of the
whole task group in order to evaluate the load of the sched_entity.
Similarly to what was done before the rewrite of PELT, we add a correction
factor in case the task group's load is greater than its share so it will
contribute the same load of a task of equal weight.

Vincent Guittot 9c2791f936 sched/fair: Fix hierarchical order in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list
Fix the insertion of cfs_rq in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list to ensure that a
child will always be called before its parent.

The hierarchical order in shares update list has been introduced by
commit:

  67e86250f8 ("sched: Introduce hierarchal order on shares update list")

With the current implementation a child can be still put after its
parent.

Lets take the example of:

       root
        \
         b
         /\
         c d*
           |
           e*

with root -> b -> c already enqueued but not d -> e so the
leaf_cfs_rq_list looks like: head -> c -> b -> root -> tail

The branch d -> e will be added the first time that they are enqueued,
starting with e then d.

When e is added, its parents is not already on the list so e is put at
the tail : head -> c -> b -> root -> e -> tail

Then, d is added at the head because its parent is already on the
list: head -> d -> c -> b -> root -> e -> tail

e is not placed at the right position and will be called the last
whereas it should be called at the beginning.

Because it follows the bottom-up enqueue sequence, we are sure that we
will finished to add either a cfs_rq without parent or a cfs_rq with a
parent that is already on the list. We can use this event to detect
when we have finished to add a new branch. For the others, whose
parents are not already added, we have to ensure that they will be
added after their children that have just been inserted the steps
before, and after any potential parents that are already in the list.
The easiest way is to put the cfs_rq just after the last inserted one
and to keep track of it untl the branch is fully added.

Morten Rasmussen bf475ce0a3 sched/fair: Add per-CPU min capacity to sched_group_capacity
struct sched_group_capacity currently represents the compute capacity
sum of all CPUs in the sched_group.

Unless it is divided by the group_weight to get the average capacity
per CPU, it hides differences in CPU capacity for mixed capacity systems
(e.g. high RT/IRQ utilization or ARM big.LITTLE).

But even the average may not be sufficient if the group covers CPUs of
different capacities.

Instead, by extending struct sched_group_capacity to indicate min per-CPU
capacity in the group a suitable group for a given task utilization can
more easily be found such that CPUs with reduced capacity can be avoided
for tasks with high utilization (not implemented by this patch).

Peter Zijlstra 10e2f1acd0 sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings()
select_idle_siblings() is a known pain point for a number of
workloads; it either does too much or not enough and sometimes just
does plain wrong.

This rewrite attempts to address a number of issues (but sadly not
all).

The current code does an unconditional sched_domain iteration; with
the intent of finding an idle core (on SMT hardware). The problems
which this patch tries to address are:

 - its pointless to look for idle cores if the machine is real busy;
   at which point you're just wasting cycles.

 - it's behaviour is inconsistent between SMT and !SMT hardware in
   that !SMT hardware ends up doing a scan for any idle CPU in the LLC
   domain, while SMT hardware does a scan for idle cores and if that
   fails, falls back to a scan for idle threads on the 'target' core.

The new code replaces the sched_domain scan with 3 explicit scans:

 1) search for an idle core in the LLC
 2) search for an idle CPU in the LLC
 3) search for an idle thread in the 'target' core

where 1 and 3 are conditional on SMT support and 1 and 2 have runtime
heuristics to skip the step.

Step 1) is conditional on sd_llc_shared->has_idle_cores; when a cpu
goes idle and sd_llc_shared->has_idle_cores is false, we scan all SMT
siblings of the CPU going idle. Similarly, we clear
sd_llc_shared->has_idle_cores when we fail to find an idle core.

Step 2) tracks the average cost of the scan and compares this to the
average idle time guestimate for the CPU doing the wakeup. There is a
significant fudge factor involved to deal with the variability of the
averages. Esp. hackbench was sensitive to this.

Step 3) is unconditional; we assume (also per step 1) that scanning
all SMT siblings in a core is 'cheap'.

With this; SMT systems gain step 2, which cures a few benchmarks --
notably one from Facebook.

One 'feature' of the sched_domain iteration, which we preserve in the
new code, is that it would start scanning from the 'target' CPU,
instead of scanning the cpumask in cpu id order. This avoids multiple
CPUs in the LLC scanning for idle to gang up and find the same CPU
quite as much. The down side is that tasks can end up hopping across
the LLC for no apparent reason.

Andy Lutomirski c65eacbe29 sched/core: Allow putting thread_info into task_struct
If an arch opts in by setting CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK_STRUCT,
then thread_info is defined as a single 'u32 flags' and is the first
entry of task_struct.  thread_info::task is removed (it serves no
purpose if thread_info is embedded in task_struct), and
thread_info::cpu gets its own slot in task_struct.

This is heavily based on a patch written by Linus.

Dietmar Eggemann cd92bfd3b8 sched/core: Store maximum per-CPU capacity in root domain
To be able to compare the capacity of the target CPU with the highest
available CPU capacity, store the maximum per-CPU capacity in the root
domain.

The max per-CPU capacity should be 1024 for all systems except SMT,
where the capacity is currently based on smt_gain and the number of
hardware threads and is <1024. If SMT can be brought to work with a
per-thread capacity of 1024, this patch can be dropped and replaced by a
hard-coded max capacity of 1024 (=SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE).

Rafael J. Wysocki 12bde33dbb cpufreq / sched: Pass runqueue pointer to cpufreq_update_util()
All of the callers of cpufreq_update_util() pass rq_clock(rq) to it
as the time argument and some of them check whether or not cpu_of(rq)
is equal to smp_processor_id() before calling it, so rework it to
take a runqueue pointer as the argument and move the rq_clock(rq)
evaluation into it.

Additionally, provide a wrapper checking cpu_of(rq) against
smp_processor_id() for the cpufreq_update_util() callers that
need it.

Rafael J. Wysocki 58919e83c8 cpufreq / sched: Pass flags to cpufreq_update_util()
It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just
been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util()
and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data.  However,
doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they
already take would be clumsy, so avoid it.

Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part
of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly.
This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced
with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow.

Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization
information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags
instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track
updates from the RT and DL sched classes.  Make it non-modular
too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at
large.

Next, update all of the other users of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data accordingly.

The move of calc_load_migrate() from CPU_DEAD to CPU_DYING did not take into
account that the function is now called from a thread running on the outgoing

accounting mechanism.

Fix it by adjusting for the currently running thread which calls
calc_load_migrate().

Vincent Guittot ea86cb4b76 sched/cgroup: Fix cpu_cgroup_fork() handling
A new fair task is detached and attached from/to task_group with:

  cgroup_post_fork()
    ss->fork(child) := cpu_cgroup_fork()
      sched_move_task()
        task_move_group_fair()

Which is wrong, because at this point in fork() the task isn't fully
initialized and it cannot 'move' to another group, because its not
attached to any group as yet.

In fact, cpu_cgroup_fork() needs a small part of sched_move_task() so we
can just call this small part directly instead sched_move_task(). And
the task doesn't really migrate because it is not yet attached so we
need the following sequence:

  do_fork()
    sched_fork()
      __set_task_cpu()

    cgroup_post_fork()
      set_task_rq() # set task group and runqueue

    wake_up_new_task()
      select_task_rq() can select a new cpu
      __set_task_cpu
      post_init_entity_util_avg
        attach_task_cfs_rq()
      activate_task
        enqueue_task

This patch makes that happen.

Konstantin Khlebnikov 094f469172 sched/fair: Initialize throttle_count for new task-groups lazily
Cgroup created inside throttled group must inherit current throttle_count.
Broken throttle_count allows to nominate throttled entries as a next buddy,
later this leads to null pointer dereference in pick_next_task_fair().

This patch initialize cfs_rq->throttle_count at first enqueue: laziness
allows to skip locking all rq at group creation. Lazy approach also allows
to skip full sub-tree scan at throttling hierarchy (not in this patch).

Peter Zijlstra 1f03e8d291 locking/barriers: Replace smp_cond_acquire() with smp_cond_load_acquire()
This new form allows using hardware assisted waiting.

Some hardware (ARM64 and x86) allow monitoring an address for changes,
so by providing a pointer we can use this to replace the cpu_relax()
with hardware optimized methods in the future.

Wanpeng Li 3d89e5478b sched/cputime: Fix prev steal time accouting during CPU hotplug
Commit:

  e9532e69b8 ("sched/cputime: Fix steal time accounting vs. CPU hotplug")

... set rq->prev_* to 0 after a CPU hotplug comes back, in order to
fix the case where (after CPU hotplug) steal time is smaller than
rq->prev_steal_time.

However, this should never happen. Steal time was only smaller because of the
KVM-specific bug fixed by the previous patch.  Worse, the previous patch
triggers a bug on CPU hot-unplug/plug operation: because
rq->prev_steal_time is cleared, all of the CPU's past steal time will be
accounted again on hot-plug.

Since the root cause has been fixed, we can just revert commit e9532e69b8.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem this time.

  To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil"
  governor.  Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor
  since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree
  ones).

  There are two main differences between it and the existing governors.
  First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for
  making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself.
  Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU
  performance right away without having to spawn work items to be
  executed in process context or similar.  Currently, the acpi-cpufreq
  driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it
  is used on a large number of systems.

  The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly
  regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the
  scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in
  progress on top of it already).  Nevertheless it works and the
  preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging.

  There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM
  platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev
  driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform
  device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform
  code any more.  Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this
  generic mechanism.

  In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect
  CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and
  provided via the ACPI _PPC object.

  The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs
  subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage
  rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated.

  The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in
  intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in
  a number of places.

  Specifics:

   - New cpufreq "schedutil" governor (making decisions based on CPU
     utilization information provided by the scheduler and capable of
     switching CPU frequencies right away if the underlying driver
     supports that) and support for fast frequency switching in the
     acpi-cpufreq driver (Rafael Wysocki)

     them to get rid of some platform-specific boilerplate code if they

 - Replace SCHED_LOAD_SCALE use with SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE and remove SCHED_LOAD_SCALE.

Yuyang Du 6ecdd74962 sched/fair: Generalize the load/util averages resolution definition
Integer metric needs fixed point arithmetic. In sched/fair, a few
metrics, e.g., weight, load, load_avg, util_avg, freq, and capacity,
may have different fixed point ranges, which makes their update and
usage error-prone.

In order to avoid the errors relating to the fixed point range, we
definie a basic fixed point range, and then formalize all metrics to
base on the basic range.

The basic range is 1024 or (1 << 10). Further, one can recursively
apply the basic range to have larger range.

Pointed out by Ben Segall, weight (visible to user, e.g., NICE-0 has
1024) and load (e.g., NICE_0_LOAD) have independent ranges, but they
must be well calibrated.

The problem with the existing lock pinning is that each pin is of
value 1; this mean you can simply unpin if you know its pinned,
without having any extra information.

This scheme generates a random (16 bit) cookie for each pin and
requires this same cookie to unpin. This means you have to keep the
cookie in context.

Frederic Weisbecker 9fd81dd5ce sched/fair: Optimize !CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON CPU load updates
Some code in CPU load update only concern NO_HZ configs but it is
built on all configurations. When NO_HZ isn't built, that code is harmless
but just happens to take some useless ressources in CPU and memory:

1) one useless field in struct rq
2) jiffies record on every tick that is never used (cpu_load_update_periodic)
3) decay_load_missed is called two times on every tick to eventually
   return immediately with no action taken. And that function is dead
   code.

For pure optimization purposes, lets conditionally build the NO_HZ
related code.

Frederic Weisbecker cee1afce30 sched/fair: Gather CPU load functions under a more conventional namespace
The CPU load update related functions have a weak naming convention
currently, starting with update_cpu_load_*() which isn't ideal as
"update" is a very generic concept.

Since two of these functions are public already (and a third is to come)
that's enough to introduce a more conventional naming scheme. So let's
do the following rename instead:

	update_cpu_load_*() -> cpu_load_update_*()

Rafael J. Wysocki 9bdcb44e39 cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data
Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses
scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making
its decisions.

Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3 (cpufreq: Add
mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that
introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on
utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates.
In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on
the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS.

The new governor is relatively simple.

The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not
the utilization is frequency-invariant.  In the frequency-invariant
case the new CPU frequency is given by

	next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max

where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util().
In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in
the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU:

	next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max

The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at
(util / max) = 0.8.

All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update
handlers provided by the new governor.  One of those handlers is
used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other
one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need
to use any extra synchronization means).

The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported
by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy.
In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take
place in its utilization update handlers.  If fast switching cannot
be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the
help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target()
(under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already
computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers).

Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as
"unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed
maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes.  That
heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more
subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks.

The governor shares some tunables management code with the
"ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common
definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it
is stand-alone.

Yuyang Du 2b8c41daba sched/fair: Initiate a new task's util avg to a bounded value
A new task's util_avg is set to full utilization of a CPU (100% time
running). This accelerates a new task's utilization ramp-up, useful to
boost its execution in early time. However, it may result in
(insanely) high utilization for a transient time period when a flood
of tasks are spawned. Importantly, it violates the "fundamentally
bounded" CPU utilization, and its side effect is negative if we don't
take any measure to bound it.

This patch proposes an algorithm to address this issue. It has
two methods to approach a sensible initial util_avg:

(1) An expected (or average) util_avg based on its cfs_rq's util_avg:

  util_avg = cfs_rq->util_avg / (cfs_rq->load_avg + 1) * se.load.weight

(2) A trajectory of how successive new tasks' util develops, which
gives 1/2 of the left utilization budget to a new task such that
the additional util is noticeably large (when overall util is low) or
unnoticeably small (when overall util is high enough). In the meantime,
the aggregate utilization is well bounded:

  util_avg_cap = (1024 - cfs_rq->avg.util_avg) / 2^n

where n denotes the nth task.

If util_avg is larger than util_avg_cap, then the effective util is
clamped to the util_avg_cap.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This time the majority of changes go into cpufreq and they are
  significant.

  First off, the way CPU frequency updates are triggered is different
  now.  Instead of having to set up and manage a deferrable timer for
  each CPU in the system to evaluate and possibly change its frequency
  periodically, cpufreq governors set up callbacks to be invoked by the
  scheduler on a regular basis (basically on utilization updates).  The
  "old" governors, "ondemand" and "conservative", still do all of their
  work in process context (although that is triggered by the scheduler
  now), but intel_pstate does it all in the callback invoked by the
  scheduler with no need for any additional asynchronous processing.

  Of course, this eliminates the overhead related to the management of
  all those timers, but also it allows the cpufreq governor code to be
  simplified quite a bit.  On top of that, the common code and data
  structures used by the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors are
  cleaned up and made more straightforward and some long-standing and
  quite annoying problems are addressed.  In particular, the handling of
  governor sysfs attributes is modified and the related locking becomes
  more fine grained which allows some concurrency problems to be avoided
  (particularly deadlocks with the core cpufreq code).

  In principle, the new mechanism for triggering frequency updates
  allows utilization information to be passed from the scheduler to
  cpufreq.  Although the current code doesn't make use of it, in the
  works is a new cpufreq governor that will make decisions based on the
  scheduler's utilization data.  That should allow the scheduler and
  cpufreq to work more closely together in the long run.

  In addition to the core and governor changes, cpufreq drivers are
  updated too.  Fixes and optimizations go into intel_pstate, the
  cpufreq-dt driver is updated on top of some modification in the
  Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework and there are fixes and
  other updates in the powernv cpufreq driver.

  Apart from the cpufreq updates there is some new ACPICA material,
  including a fix for a problem introduced by previous ACPICA updates,
  and some less significant changes in the ACPI code, like CPPC code
  optimizations, ACPI processor driver cleanups and support for loading
  ACPI tables from initrd.

  Also updated are the generic power domains framework, the Intel RAPL
  power capping driver and the turbostat utility and we have a bunch of
  traditional assorted fixes and cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Redesign of cpufreq governors and the intel_pstate driver to make
     them use callbacks invoked by the scheduler to trigger CPU

and do all of the computations they need and frequency/voltage
adjustments in the update_load_avg() code path, among other things.

Thomas Gleixner e9532e69b8 sched/cputime: Fix steal time accounting vs. CPU hotplug
On CPU hotplug the steal time accounting can keep a stale rq->prev_steal_time
value over CPU down and up. So after the CPU comes up again the delta
calculation in steal_account_process_tick() wreckages itself due to the
unsigned math:

	 u64 steal = paravirt_steal_clock(smp_processor_id());

	 steal -= this_rq()->prev_steal_time;

So if steal is smaller than rq->prev_steal_time we end up with an insane large
value which then gets added to rq->prev_steal_time, resulting in a permanent
wreckage of the accounting. As a consequence the per CPU stats in /proc/stat
become stale.

Nice trick to tell the world how idle the system is (100%) while the CPU is
100% busy running tasks. Though we prefer realistic numbers.

None of the accounting values which use a previous value to account for
fractions is reset at CPU hotplug time. update_rq_clock_task() has a sanity
check for prev_irq_time and prev_steal_time_rq, but that sanity check solely
deals with clock warps and limits the /proc/stat visible wreckage. The
prev_time values are still wrong.

Solution is simple: Reset rq->prev_*_time when the CPU is plugged in again.

Frederic Weisbecker 76d92ac305 sched: Migrate sched to use new tick dependency mask model
Instead of providing asynchronous checks for the nohz subsystem to verify
sched tick dependency, migrate sched to the new mask.

Everytime a task is enqueued or dequeued, we evaluate the state of the
tick dependency on top of the policy of the tasks in the runqueue, by
order of priority:

SCHED_DEADLINE: Need the tick in order to periodically check for runtime
SCHED_FIFO    : Don't need the tick (no round-robin)
SCHED_RR      : Need the tick if more than 1 task of the same priority
                for round robin (simplified with checking if more than
                one SCHED_RR task no matter what priority).
SCHED_NORMAL  : Need the tick if more than 1 task for round-robin.

We could optimize that further with one flag per sched policy on the tick
dependency mask and perform only the checks relevant to the policy
concerned by an enqueue/dequeue operation.

Since the checks aren't based on the current task anymore, we could get
rid of the task switch hook but it's still needed for posix cpu
timers.

In order to evaluate the scheduler tick dependency without probing
context switches, we need to know how much SCHED_RR and SCHED_FIFO tasks
are enqueued as those policies don't have the same preemption
requirements.

To prepare for that, let's account SCHED_RR tasks, we'll be able to
deduce SCHED_FIFO tasks as well from it and the total RT tasks in the
runqueue.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 3866e845ed sched/debug: Move sched_domain_sysctl to debug.c
The sched_domain_sysctl setup is only enabled when SCHED_DEBUG is
configured. As debug.c is only compiled when SCHED_DEBUG is configured as
well, move the setup of sched_domain_sysctl into that file.

Note, the (un)register_sched_domain_sysctl() functions had to be changed
from static to allow access to them from core.c.

So normally we dequeue/enqueue tasks in sched_setscheduler(), which
would ensure the accounting stays correct. However in the early PI path
we fail to do so.

So this was introduced at around v3.14, by:

  c365c292d0 ("sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()")

which fixed another problem exactly because that dequeue/enqueue, joy.

Fix this by teaching rt about DEQUEUE_SAVE/ENQUEUE_RESTORE and have it
preserve runqueue location with that option. This requires decoupling
the on_rt_rq() state from being on the list.

In order to allow for explicit movement during the SAVE/RESTORE,
introduce {DE,EN}QUEUE_MOVE. We still must use SAVE/RESTORE in these
cases to preserve other invariants.

Respecting the SAVE/RESTORE flags also has the (nice) side-effect that
things like sys_nice()/sys_sched_setaffinity() also do not reorder
FIFO tasks (whereas they used to before this patch).

Peter Zijlstra 6fe1f348b3 sched/cgroup: Fix cgroup entity load tracking tear-down
When a cgroup's CPU runqueue is destroyed, it should remove its
remaining load accounting from its parent cgroup.

The current site for doing so it unsuited because its far too late and
unordered against other cgroup removal (->css_free() will be, but we're also
in an RCU callback).

Put it in the ->css_offline() callback, which is the start of cgroup
destruction, right after the group has been made unavailable to
userspace. The ->css_offline() callbacks are called in hierarchical order
after the following v4.4 commit:

  aa226ff4a1 ("cgroup: make sure a parent css isn't offlined before its children")

Mel Gorman cb2517653f sched/debug: Make schedstats a runtime tunable that is disabled by default
schedstats is very useful during debugging and performance tuning but it
incurs overhead to calculate the stats. As such, even though it can be
disabled at build time, it is often enabled as the information is useful.

This patch adds a kernel command-line and sysctl tunable to enable or
disable schedstats on demand (when it's built in). It is disabled
by default as someone who knows they need it can also learn to enable
it when necessary.

The benefits are dependent on how scheduler-intensive the workload is.
If it is then the patch reduces the number of cycles spent calculating
the stats with a small benefit from reducing the cache footprint of the
scheduler.

These measurements were taken from a 48-core 2-socket
machine with Xeon(R) E5-2670 v3 cpus although they were also tested on a
single socket machine 8-core machine with Intel i7-3770 processors.

not a surprise that the result will depend on the CPU used.

Small improvement and similar gains were seen on the UMA machine.

The gain is small but it stands to reason that doing less work in the
scheduler is a good thing. The downside is that the lack of schedstats and
tracepoints may be surprising to experts doing performance analysis until
they find the existence of the schedstats= parameter or schedstats sysctl.
It will be automatically activated for latencytop and sleep profiling to
alleviate the problem. For tracepoints, there is a simple warning as it's
not safe to activate schedstats in the context when it's known the tracepoint
may be wanted but is unavailable.

Waiman Long b0367629ac sched/fair: Move the cache-hot 'load_avg' variable into its own cacheline
If a system with large number of sockets was driven to full
utilization, it was found that the clock tick handling occupied a
rather significant proportion of CPU time when fair group scheduling
and autogroup were enabled.

Running a java benchmark on a 16-socket IvyBridge-EX system, the perf
profile looked like:

  10.52%   0.00%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] smp_apic_timer_interrupt
   9.66%   0.05%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] hrtimer_interrupt
   8.65%   0.03%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] tick_sched_timer
   8.56%   0.00%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] update_process_times
   8.07%   0.03%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] scheduler_tick
   6.91%   1.78%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] task_tick_fair
   5.24%   5.04%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] update_cfs_shares

In particular, the high CPU time consumed by update_cfs_shares()
was mostly due to contention on the cacheline that contained the
task_group's load_avg statistical counter. This cacheline may also
contains variables like shares, cfs_rq & se which are accessed rather
frequently during clock tick processing.

This patch moves the load_avg variable into another cacheline
separated from the other frequently accessed variables. It also
creates a cacheline aligned kmemcache for task_group to make sure
that all the allocated task_group's are cacheline aligned.

By doing so, the perf profile became:

   9.44%   0.00%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] smp_apic_timer_interrupt
   8.74%   0.01%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] hrtimer_interrupt

   4.15%   3.92%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] update_cfs_shares

The %cpu time is still pretty high, but it is better than before. The

Andi Kleen ed82b8a1ff sched/core: Move the sched_to_prio[] arrays out of line
When building a kernel with a gcc 6 snapshot the compiler complains
about unused const static variables for prio_to_weight and prio_to_mult
for multiple scheduler files (all but core.c and autogroup.c)

The way the array is currently declared it will be duplicated in
every scheduler file that includes sched.h, which seems rather wasteful.

Move the array out of line into core.c. I also added a sched_ prefix
to avoid any potential name space collisions.

Byungchul Park ad936d8658 sched/fair: Make it possible to account fair load avg consistently
The current code accounts for the time a task was absent from the fair
class (per ATTACH_AGE_LOAD). However it does not work correctly when a
task got migrated or moved to another cgroup while outside of the fair
class.

This patch tries to address that by aging on migration. We locklessly
read the 'last_update_time' stamp from both the old and new cfs_rq,
ages the load upto the old time, and sets it to the new time.

These timestamps should in general not be more than 1 tick apart from
one another, so there is a definite bound on things.

This alternative patch solves the problem by not calling
sched_info_{de,}queued() in {de,en}queue_task(). Therefore the
sched_info state is preserved and things work as expected.

By inlining the {de,en}queue_task() functions the new condition
becomes (mostly) a compile-time constant and we'll not emit any new
branch instructions.

It even shrinks the code (due to inlining {en,de}queue_task()):

Peter Zijlstra 95913d9791 sched/core: Fix TASK_DEAD race in finish_task_switch()
So the problem this patch is trying to address is as follows:

        CPU0                            CPU1

        context_switch(A, B)
                                        ttwu(A)
                                          LOCK A->pi_lock
                                          A->on_cpu == 0
        finish_task_switch(A)
          prev_state = A->state  <-.
          WMB                      |
          A->on_cpu = 0;           |
          UNLOCK rq0->lock         |
                                   |    context_switch(C, A)
                                   `--  A->state = TASK_DEAD
          prev_state == TASK_DEAD
            put_task_struct(A)
                                        context_switch(A, C)
                                        finish_task_switch(A)
                                          A->state == TASK_DEAD
                                            put_task_struct(A)

The argument being that the WMB will allow the load of A->state on CPU0
to cross over and observe CPU1's store of A->state, which will then
result in a double-drop and use-after-free.

Now the comment states (and this was true once upon a long time ago)
that we need to observe A->state while holding rq->lock because that
will order us against the wakeup; however the wakeup will not in fact
acquire (that) rq->lock; it takes A->pi_lock these days.

We can obviously fix this by upgrading the WMB to an MB, but that is
expensive, so we'd rather avoid that.

The alternative this patch takes is: smp_store_release(&A->on_cpu, 0),
which avoids the MB on some archs, but not important ones like ARM.

Dietmar Eggemann e3279a2e6d sched/fair: Make utilization tracking CPU scale-invariant
Besides the existing frequency scale-invariance correction factor, apply
CPU scale-invariance correction factor to utilization tracking to
compensate for any differences in compute capacity. This could be due to
micro-architectural differences (i.e. instructions per seconds) between
cpus in HMP systems (e.g. big.LITTLE), and/or differences in the current
maximum frequency supported by individual cpus in SMP systems. In the
existing implementation utilization isn't comparable between cpus as it
is relative to the capacity of each individual CPU.

Each segment of the sched_avg.util_sum geometric series is now scaled
by the CPU performance factor too so the sched_avg.util_avg of each
sched entity will be invariant from the particular CPU of the HMP/SMP
system on which the sched entity is scheduled.

With this patch, the utilization of a CPU stays relative to the max CPU
performance of the fastest CPU in the system.

In contrast to utilization (sched_avg.util_sum), load
(sched_avg.load_sum) should not be scaled by compute capacity. The
utilization metric is based on running time which only makes sense when
cpus are _not_ fully utilized (utilization cannot go beyond 100% even if
more tasks are added), where load is runnable time which isn't limited
by the capacity of the CPU and therefore is a better metric for
overloaded scenarios. If we run two nice-0 busy loops on two cpus with
different compute capacity their load should be similar since their
compute demands are the same. We have to assume that the compute demand
of any task running on a fully utilized CPU (no spare cycles = 100%
utilization) is high and the same no matter of the compute capacity of
its current CPU, hence we shouldn't scale load by CPU capacity.

Morten Rasmussen 8cd5601c50 sched/fair: Convert arch_scale_cpu_capacity() from weak function to #define
Bring arch_scale_cpu_capacity() in line with the recent change of its
arch_scale_freq_capacity() sibling in commit dfbca41f34 ("sched:
Optimize freq invariant accounting") from weak function to #define to
allow inlining of the function.

While at it, remove the ARCH_CAPACITY sched_feature as well. With the
change to #define there isn't a straightforward way to allow runtime
switch between an arch implementation and the default implementation of
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() using sched_feature. The default was to use
the arch-specific implementation, but only the arm architecture provides
one and that is essentially equivalent to the default implementation.

This commit ensures that NUMA hinting faults occur only on a NUMA system
by setting/resetting sched_numa_balancing.

This commit:

  - Makes sched_numa_balancing common to CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG and
    !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG. Earlier it was only in !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG.

  - Checks for sched_numa_balancing instead of sched_feat(NUMA).

Yuyang Du 139622343e sched/fair: Provide runnable_load_avg back to cfs_rq
The cfs_rq's load_avg is composed of runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg.
Before this series, sometimes the runnable_load_avg is used, and sometimes
the load_avg is used. Completely replacing all uses of runnable_load_avg
with load_avg may be too big a leap, i.e., the blocked_load_avg is concerned
to result in overrated load. Therefore, we get runnable_load_avg back.

The new cfs_rq's runnable_load_avg is improved to be updated with all of the
runnable sched_eneities at the same time, so the one sched_entity updated and
the others stale problem is solved.

Yuyang Du 9d89c257df sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking
The idea of runnable load average (let runnable time contribute to weight)
was proposed by Paul Turner and Ben Segall, and it is still followed by
this rewrite. This rewrite aims to solve the following issues:

1. cfs_rq's load average (namely runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg) is
   updated at the granularity of an entity at a time, which results in the
   cfs_rq's load average is stale or partially updated: at any time, only
   one entity is up to date, all other entities are effectively lagging
   behind. This is undesirable.

   To illustrate, if we have n runnable entities in the cfs_rq, as time
   elapses, they certainly become outdated:

     t0: cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_old, ..., en_old }

   and when we update:

     t1: update e1, then we have cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_old, ..., en_old }

     t2: update e2, then we have cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_new, ..., en_old }

     ...

   We solve this by combining all runnable entities' load averages together
   in cfs_rq's avg, and update the cfs_rq's avg as a whole. This is based
   on the fact that if we regard the update as a function, then:

   w * update(e) = update(w * e) and

   update(e1) + update(e2) = update(e1 + e2), then

   w1 * update(e1) + w2 * update(e2) = update(w1 * e1 + w2 * e2)

   therefore, by this rewrite, we have an entirely updated cfs_rq at the
   time we update it:

     t1: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }

     t2: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }

     ...

2. cfs_rq's load average is different between top rq->cfs_rq and other
   task_group's per CPU cfs_rqs in whether or not blocked_load_average
   contributes to the load.

   The basic idea behind runnable load average (the same for utilization)
   is that the blocked state is taken into account as opposed to only
   accounting for the currently runnable state. Therefore, the average
   should include both the runnable/running and blocked load averages.
   This rewrite does that.

   In addition, we also combine runnable/running and blocked averages
   of all entities into the cfs_rq's average, and update it together at
   once. This is based on the fact that:

     update(runnable) + update(blocked) = update(runnable + blocked)

   This significantly reduces the code as we don't need to separately
   maintain/update runnable/running load and blocked load.

3. How task_group entities' share is calculated is complex and imprecise.

   We reduce the complexity in this rewrite to allow a very simple rule:
   the task_group's load_avg is aggregated from its per CPU cfs_rqs's
   load_avgs. Then group entity's weight is simply proportional to its
   own cfs_rq's load_avg / task_group's load_avg. To illustrate,

   if a task_group has { cfs_rq1, cfs_rq2, ..., cfs_rqn }, then,

   task_group_avg = cfs_rq1_avg + cfs_rq2_avg + ... + cfs_rqn_avg, then

   cfs_rqx's entity's share = cfs_rqx_avg / task_group_avg * task_group's share

To sum up, this rewrite in principle is equivalent to the current one, but
fixes the issues described above. Turns out, it significantly reduces the
code complexity and hence increases clarity and efficiency. In addition,
the new averages are more smooth/continuous (no spurious spikes and valleys)
and updated more consistently and quickly to reflect the load dynamics.

As a result, we have less load tracking overhead, better performance,
and especially better power efficiency due to more balanced load.

Srikar Dronamraju 397f2378f1 sched/numa: Fix numa balancing stats in /proc/pid/sched
Commit 44dba3d5d6 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use
numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way
tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted.

However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed
in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched
don't match the actual numbers.

Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task
fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too.

Also couple of more modifications are added here:

1. Format changes:

  - Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private
    and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry.

  - Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are
    displayed separately.

  - Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and
    group faults.

2. Unit changes:

  - p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of
    /proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since
    differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily
    calculated.

Peter Zijlstra 4cfafd3082 sched,perf: Fix periodic timers
In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can
stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be
(re)-started when their idle condition changes.

Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do
the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns,
and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided
to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we
end up with a 'lost' timer.

The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before
the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the
callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer.

Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd
by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course,
that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time.

Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then
everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that
is undesired.

The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active
variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface
for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas.

Peter Zijlstra 3289bdb429 sched: Move the loadavg code to a more obvious location
I could not find the loadavg code.. turns out it was hidden in a file
called proc.c. It further got mingled up with the cruft per rq load
indexes (which we really want to get rid of).

Move the per rq load indexes into the fair.c load-balance code (that's

Peter Zijlstra 77a4d1a1b9 sched: Cleanup bandwidth timers
Roman reported a 3 cpu lockup scenario involving __start_cfs_bandwidth().

The more I look at that code the more I'm convinced its crack, that
entire __start_cfs_bandwidth() thing is brain melting, we don't need to
cancel a timer before starting it, *hrtimer_start*() will happily remove
the timer for you if its still enqueued.

Removing that, removes a big part of the problem, no more ugly cancel
loop to get stuck in.

So now, if I understand things right, the entire reason you have this
cfs_b->lock guarded ->timer_active nonsense is to make sure we don't
accidentally lose the timer.

It appears to me that it should be possible to guarantee that same by
unconditionally (re)starting the timer when !queued. Because regardless
what hrtimer::function will return, if we beat it to (re)enqueue the
timer, it doesn't matter.

Now, because hrtimers don't come with any serialization guarantees we
must ensure both handler and (re)start loop serialize their access to
the hrtimer to avoid both trying to forward the timer at the same
time.

Update the rt bandwidth timer to match.

This effectively reverts: 09dc4ab039 ("sched/fair: Fix
tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() deadlock on rq->lock").

Peter Zijlstra dfbca41f34 sched: Optimize freq invariant accounting
Currently the freq invariant accounting (in
__update_entity_runnable_avg() and sched_rt_avg_update()) get the
scale factor from a weak function call, this means that even for archs
that default on their implementation the compiler cannot see into this
function and optimize the extra scaling math away.

This is sad, esp. since its a 64-bit multiplication which can be quite
costly on some platforms.

So replace the weak function with #ifdef and __always_inline goo. This
is not quite as nice from an arch support PoV but should at least
result in compile time errors if done wrong.

This new field 'cpu_capacity_orig' reflects the original capacity of a CPU
before being altered by rt tasks and/or IRQ

The cpu_capacity_orig will be used:

  - to detect when the capacity of a CPU has been noticeably reduced so we can
    trig load balance to look for a CPU with better capacity. As an example, we
    can detect when a CPU handles a significant amount of irq
    (with CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING) but this CPU is seen as an idle CPU by
    scheduler whereas CPUs, which are really idle, are available.

  - evaluate the available capacity for CFS tasks

Vincent Guittot b5b4860d1d sched: Make scale_rt invariant with frequency
The average running time of RT tasks is used to estimate the remaining compute
capacity for CFS tasks. This remaining capacity is the original capacity scaled
down by a factor (aka scale_rt_capacity). This estimation of available capacity
must also be invariant with frequency scaling.

A frequency scaling factor is applied on the running time of the RT tasks for
computing scale_rt_capacity.

In sched_rt_avg_update(), we now scale the RT execution time like below:

  rq->rt_avg += rt_delta * arch_scale_freq_capacity() >> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT

Then, scale_rt_capacity can be summarized by:

  scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE * available / total

with available = total - rq->rt_avg

This has been been optimized in current code by:

  scale_rt_capacity = available / (total >> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT)

But we can also developed the equation like below:

  scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - ((rq->rt_avg << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT) / total)

and we can optimize the equation by removing SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT shift in
the computation of rq->rt_avg and scale_rt_capacity().

so rq->rt_avg += rt_delta * arch_scale_freq_capacity()
and
scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - (rq->rt_avg / total)

arch_scale_frequency_capacity() will be called in the hot path of the scheduler
which implies to have a short and efficient function.

As an example, arch_scale_frequency_capacity() should return a cached value that
is updated periodically outside of the hot path.

This patch is based on the usage metric that was proposed in the 1st
versions of the per-entity load tracking patchset by Paul Turner
<pjt@google.com> but that has be removed afterwards. This version differs from
the original one in the sense that it's not linked to task_group.

The rq's utilization_load_avg will be used to check if a rq is overloaded or
not instead of trying to compute how many tasks a group of CPUs can handle.

Rename runnable_avg_period into avg_period as it is now used with both
runnable_avg_sum and running_avg_sum.

Add some descriptions of the variables to explain their differences.

Steven Rostedt b6366f048e sched/rt: Use IPI to trigger RT task push migration instead of pulling
When debugging the latencies on a 40 core box, where we hit 300 to
500 microsecond latencies, I found there was a huge contention on the
runqueue locks.

Investigating it further, running ftrace, I found that it was due to
the pulling of RT tasks.

The test that was run was the following:

 cyclictest --numa -p95 -m -d0 -i100

This created a thread on each CPU, that would set its wakeup in iterations
of 100 microseconds. The -d0 means that all the threads had the same
interval (100us). Each thread sleeps for 100us and wakes up and measures
its latencies.

cyclictest is maintained at:
 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clrkwllms/rt-tests.git

What happened was another RT task would be scheduled on one of the CPUs
that was running our test, when the other CPU tests went to sleep and
scheduled idle. This caused the "pull" operation to execute on all
these CPUs. Each one of these saw the RT task that was overloaded on
the CPU of the test that was still running, and each one tried
to grab that task in a thundering herd way.

To grab the task, each thread would do a double rq lock grab, grabbing
its own lock as well as the rq of the overloaded CPU. As the sched
domains on this box was rather flat for its size, I saw up to 12 CPUs
block on this lock at once. This caused a ripple affect with the
rq locks especially since the taking was done via a double rq lock, which
means that several of the CPUs had their own rq locks held while trying
to take this rq lock. As these locks were blocked, any wakeups or load
balanceing on these CPUs would also block on these locks, and the wait
time escalated.

I've tried various methods to lessen the load, but things like an
atomic counter to only let one CPU grab the task wont work, because
the task may have a limited affinity, and we may pick the wrong
CPU to take that lock and do the pull, to only find out that the
CPU we picked isn't in the task's affinity.

Instead of doing the PULL, I now have the CPUs that want the pull to
send over an IPI to the overloaded CPU, and let that CPU pick what
CPU to push the task to. No more need to grab the rq lock, and the
push/pull algorithm still works fine.

With this patch, the latency dropped to just 150us over a 20 hour run.
Without the patch, the huge latencies would trigger in seconds.

I've created a new sched feature called RT_PUSH_IPI, which is enabled
by default.

When RT_PUSH_IPI is not enabled, the old method of grabbing the rq locks
and having the pulling CPU do the work is implemented. When RT_PUSH_IPI
is enabled, the IPI is sent to the overloaded CPU to do a push.

To enabled or disable this at run time:

 # mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
 # echo RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
or
 # echo NO_RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features

Update: This original patch would send an IPI to all CPUs in the RT overload
list. But that could theoretically cause the reverse issue. That is, there
could be lots of overloaded RT queues and one CPU lowers its priority. It would
then send an IPI to all the overloaded RT queues and they could then all try
to grab the rq lock of the CPU lowering its priority, and then we have the
same problem.

The latest design sends out only one IPI to the first overloaded CPU. It tries to
push any tasks that it can, and then looks for the next overloaded CPU that can
push to the source CPU. The IPIs stop when all overloaded CPUs that have pushable
tasks that have priorities greater than the source CPU are covered. In case the
source CPU lowers its priority again, a flag is set to tell the IPI traversal to
restart with the first RT overloaded CPU after the source CPU.

Peter Zijlstra 3960c8c0c7 sched: Make dl_task_time() use task_rq_lock()
Kirill reported that a dl task can be throttled and dequeued at the
same time. This happens, when it becomes throttled in schedule(),
which is called to go to sleep:

current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
schedule()
    deactivate_task()
        dequeue_task_dl()
            update_curr_dl()
                start_dl_timer()
            __dequeue_task_dl()
    prev->on_rq = 0;

This invalidates the assumption from commit 0f397f2c90 ("sched/dl:
Fix race in dl_task_timer()"):

  "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".

And therefore we have to use the full task_rq_lock() here.

This further amends the fact that we forgot to update the rq lock loop
for TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATE, from commit cca26e8009 ("sched: Teach
scheduler to understand TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING state").

Peter Zijlstra 9edfbfed3f sched/core: Rework rq->clock update skips
The original purpose of rq::skip_clock_update was to avoid 'costly' clock
updates for back to back wakeup-preempt pairs. The big problem with it
has always been that the rq variable is unaware of the context and
causes indiscrimiate clock skips.

Rework the entire thing and create a sense of context by only allowing
schedule() to skip clock updates. (XXX can we measure the cost of the
added store?)

By ensuring only schedule can ever skip an update, we guarantee we're
never more than 1 tick behind on the update.

Stanislaw Gruszka 6e998916df sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency
Commit d670ec1317 "posix-cpu-timers: Cure SMP wobbles" fixes one glibc
test case in cost of breaking another one. After that commit, calling
clock_nanosleep(TIMER_ABSTIME, X) and then clock_gettime(&Y) can result
of Y time being smaller than X time.

Reproducer/tester can be found further below, it can be compiled and ran by:

	gcc -o tst-cpuclock2 tst-cpuclock2.c -pthread
	while ./tst-cpuclock2 ; do : ; done

This reproducer, when running on a buggy kernel, will complain
about "clock_gettime difference too small".

Issue happens because on start in thread_group_cputimer() we initialize
sum_exec_runtime of cputimer with threads runtime not yet accounted and
then add the threads runtime to running cputimer again on scheduler
tick, making it's sum_exec_runtime bigger than actual threads runtime.

KOSAKI Motohiro posted a fix for this problem, but that patch was never
applied: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/26/191 .

This patch takes different approach to cure the problem. It calls
update_curr() when cputimer starts, that assure we will have updated
stats of running threads and on the next schedule tick we will account
only the runtime that elapsed from cputimer start. That also assure we
have consistent state between cpu times of individual threads and cpu
time of the process consisted by those threads.

Iulia Manda 44dba3d5d6 sched: Refactor task_struct to use numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers
This patch simplifies task_struct by removing the four numa_* pointers
in the same array and replacing them with the array pointer. By doing this,
on x86_64, the size of task_struct is reduced by 3 ulong pointers (24 bytes on
x86_64).

A new parameter is added to the task_faults_idx function so that it can return
an index to the correct offset, corresponding with the old precalculated
pointers.

All of the code in sched/ that depended on task_faults_idx and numa_* was
changed in order to match the new logic.

      ...                         ...                        ...
      raw_spin_unlock(&rq->lock)  ...                        raw_spin_lock(&rq->lock)
      ...                         ...                        (asquired)
      put_task_struct()           ...                        ...
          free_task_struct()      ...                        ...
      ...                         ...                        raw_spin_unlock(&rq->lock)
...                               (asquired)                 ...
...                               ...                        ...
...                               (use after free)           ...

So, let's implement 100% guaranteed way to cancel the timer and let's
be sure we are safe even in very unlikely situations.

rq unlocking does not limit the area of switched_from_dl() use, because
this has already been possible in pull_dl_task() below.

Let's consider the safety of of this unlocking. New code in the patch
is working when hrtimer_try_to_cancel() fails. This means the callback
is running. In this case hrtimer_cancel() is just waiting till the
callback is finished. Two

1) Since we are in switched_from_dl(), new class is not dl_sched_class and
new prio is not less MAX_DL_PRIO. So, the callback returns early; it's
right after !dl_task() check. After that hrtimer_cancel() returns back too.

The above is:

raw_spin_lock(rq->lock);                  ...
...                                       dl_task_timer()
...                                          raw_spin_lock(rq->lock);
   switched_from_dl()                        ...
       hrtimer_try_to_cancel()               ...
          raw_spin_unlock(rq->lock);         ...
          hrtimer_cancel()                   ...
          ...                                raw_spin_unlock(rq->lock);
          ...                                return HRTIMER_NORESTART;
          ...                             ...
          raw_spin_lock(rq->lock);        ...

2) But the below is also possible:
                                   dl_task_timer()
                                      raw_spin_lock(rq->lock);
                                      ...
                                      raw_spin_unlock(rq->lock);
raw_spin_lock(rq->lock);              ...
   switched_from_dl()                 ...
       hrtimer_try_to_cancel()        ...
       ...                            return HRTIMER_NORESTART;
       raw_spin_unlock(rq->lock);  ...
       hrtimer_cancel();           ...
       raw_spin_lock(rq->lock);    ...

In this case hrtimer_cancel() returns immediately. Very unlikely case,
just to mention.

Nobody can manipulate the task, because check_class_changed() is
always called with pi_lock locked. Nobody can force the task to
participate in (concurrent) priority inheritance schemes (the same reason).

All concurrent task operations require pi_lock, which is held by us.
No deadlocks with dl_task_timer() are possible, because it returns
right after !dl_task() check (it does nothing).

If we receive a new dl_task during the time of unlocked rq, we just
don't have to do pull_dl_task() in switched_from_dl() further.

Juri Lelli 7f51412a41 sched/deadline: Fix bandwidth check/update when migrating tasks between exclusive cpusets
Exclusive cpusets are the only way users can restrict SCHED_DEADLINE tasks
affinity (performing what is commonly called clustered scheduling).
Unfortunately, such thing is currently broken for two reasons:

 - No check is performed when the user tries to attach a task to
   an exlusive cpuset (recall that exclusive cpusets have an
   associated maximum allowed bandwidth).

 - Bandwidths of source and destination cpusets are not correctly
   updated after a task is migrated between them.

This patch fixes both things at once, as they are opposite faces
of the same coin.

The check is performed in cpuset_can_attach(), as there aren't any
points of failure after that function. The updated is split in two
halves. We first reserve bandwidth in the destination cpuset, after
we pass the check in cpuset_can_attach(). And we then release
bandwidth from the source cpuset when the task's affinity is
actually changed. Even if there can be time windows when sched_setattr()
may erroneously fail in the source cpuset, we are fine with it, as
we can't perfom an atomic update of both cpusets at once.

Rik van Riel e3fe70b1f7 sched/numa: Classify the NUMA topology of a system
Smaller NUMA systems tend to have all NUMA nodes directly connected
to each other. This includes the degenerate case of a system with just
one node, ie. a non-NUMA system.

Larger systems can have two kinds of NUMA topology, which affects how
tasks and memory should be placed on the system.

On glueless mesh systems, nodes that are not directly connected to
each other will bounce traffic through intermediary nodes. Task groups
can be run closer to each other by moving tasks from a node to an
intermediary node between it and the task's preferred node.

On NUMA systems with backplane controllers, the intermediary hops
are incapable of running programs. This creates "islands" of nodes
that are at an equal distance to anywhere else in the system.

Each kind of topology requires a slightly different placement
algorithm; this patch provides the mechanism to detect the kind
of NUMA topology of a system.

Linus Torvalds 0429fbc0bd Merge branch 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
  and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
  and had their own accessors.  The distinction has been gone for many
  years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
  with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
  operations over time.  During the process, we also accumulated other
  inconsistent operations.

  This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
  duplicate accessor situation.  __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
  with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().

  Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
  messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
  a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
  this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

  This converts most of the uses but not all.  Christoph will follow up
  with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
  remove the obsolete accessors"

Daniel Lezcano 442bf3aaf5 sched: Let the scheduler see CPU idle states
When the cpu enters idle, it stores the cpuidle state pointer in its
struct rq instance which in turn could be used to make a better decision
when balancing tasks.

As soon as the cpu exits its idle state, the struct rq reference is
cleared.

There are a couple of situations where the idle state pointer could be changed
while it is being consulted:

1. For x86/acpi with dynamic c-states, when a laptop switches from battery
   to AC that could result on removing the deeper idle state. The acpi driver
   triggers:
	'acpi_processor_cst_has_changed'
		'cpuidle_pause_and_lock'
			'cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler'
				'kick_all_cpus_sync'.

All cpus will exit their idle state and the pointed object will be set to
NULL.

2. The cpuidle driver is unloaded. Logically that could happen but not
in practice because the drivers are always compiled in and 95% of them are
not coded to unregister themselves.  In any case, the unloading code must
call 'cpuidle_unregister_device', that calls 'cpuidle_pause_and_lock'
leading to 'kick_all_cpus_sync' as mentioned above.

A race can happen if we use the pointer and then one of these two scenarios
occurs at the same moment.

In order to be safe, the idle state pointer stored in the rq must be
used inside a rcu_read_lock section where we are protected with the
'rcu_barrier' in the 'cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler' function. The
idle_get_state() and idle_put_state() accessors should be used to that
effect.

Juri Lelli a5e7be3b28 sched/deadline: Clear dl_entity params when setscheduling to different class
When a task is using SCHED_DEADLINE and the user setschedules it to a
different class its sched_dl_entity static parameters are not cleaned
up. This causes a bug if the user sets it back to SCHED_DEADLINE with
the same parameters again.  The problem resides in the check we
perform at the very beginning of dl_overflow():

	if (new_bw == p->dl.dl_bw)
		return 0;

This condition is met in the case depicted above, so the function
returns and dl_b->total_bw is not updated (the p->dl.dl_bw is not
added to it). After this, admission control is broken.

This patch fixes the thing, properly clearing static parameters for a
task that ceases to use SCHED_DEADLINE.

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.

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

	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 :)

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.

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.

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.

Since struct sched_group_power is really about compute capacity of sched

becomes sgc. Related variables and functions dealing with groups are also
adjusted accordingly.

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 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.

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.

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

> kernel/sched/rt.c:1347 pick_next_task_rt() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'prev' (see line 1338)
> 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().
