Ensure the stopper thread is active 'early', because the load balancer
pretty much assumes that its available. And when 'online && active' the
load-balancer is fully available.
Not only the numa balancing stop_two_cpus() caller relies on it, but
also the self migration stuff does, and at CPU_ONLINE time the cpu
really is 'free' to run anything.

Commit:
9d51426242 ("sched/deadline: Reduce rq lock contention by eliminating locking of non-feasible target")
broke select_task_rq_dl() and find_lock_later_rq(), because it introduced
a comparison between the local task's deadline and dl.earliest_dl.curr of
the remote queue.
However, if the remote runqueue does not contain any SCHED_DEADLINE
task its earliest_dl.curr is 0 (always smaller than the deadline of
the local task) and the remote runqueue is not selected for pushing.
As a result, if an application creates multiple SCHED_DEADLINE
threads, they will never be pushed to runqueues that do not already
contain SCHED_DEADLINE tasks.
This patch fixes the issue by checking if dl.dl_nr_running == 0.

This reverts:
8cb9764fc8 ("nohz: Set isolcpus when nohz_full is set")
We assumed that full-nohz users always want scheduler isolation on full
dynticks CPUs, therefore we included full-nohz CPUs on cpu_isolated_map.
This means that tasks run by default on CPUs outside the nohz_full range
unless their affinity is explicity overwritten.
This suits pure isolation workloads but when the machine is needed to
run common workloads, the available sets of CPUs to run common tasks
becomes reduced.
We reach an extreme case when CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL is enabled as it
leaves only CPU 0 for non-isolation tasks, which makes people think that
their supercomputer regressed to 90's UP - which is true in a sense.
Some full-nohz users appear to be interested in running normal workloads
either before or after an isolation workload. Full-nohz isn't optimized
toward normal workloads but it's still better than UP performance.
We are reaching a limitation in kernel presets here. Lets revert this
cpu_isolated_map inclusion and let userspace do its own scheduler
isolation using cpusets or explicit affinity settings.

When cfs_rq has cfs_rq->removed_load_avg set (when a task migrates from
this cfs_rq), we need to update its contribution to the group's load_avg.
This should not increase tg's update too much, because in most cases, the
cfs_rq has already decayed its load_avg.

Commit:
9d89c257df ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")
led to an overly small weight for interactive group entities. The bad case
can be easily reproduced when a number of CPU hogs compete for the CPUs
at the same time (thanks to Mike). This is largly because the task group's
load average tracking cross CPUs lags behind the real changes.
To fix this we accelerate the group share distribution process by using
the load.weight of the cfs_rq. This may increase the entire group's
share, but we have to do so to protect the (fragile) interactive
tasks, especially from CPU hogs.

When using idle=poll, the preemptoff tracer is always showing
the idle task as the culprit for long latencies. That happens
because critical timings are not stopped before idle loop. This
patch stops critical timings before entering the idle loop,
starting it again after the idle loop.
This problem does not affect the irqsoff tracer because
interruptions are enabled before entering the idle loop.

The new locktorture rtmutex_lock tests exercise priority boosting, which
means that they need to set some tasks to real-time priority. To do this,
they use sched_setscheduler_nocheck(). However, this is not exported to
modules, which results in the following error when building locktorture
as a module:
ERROR: "sched_setscheduler_nocheck" [kernel/locking/locktorture.ko] undefined!
This commit therefore adds an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() to allow this function
to be invoked from locktorture when built as a module.

(1) For !CONFIG_BUG cases, the bug call is a no-op, so we couldn't care
less and the change is ok.
(2) PPC and MIPS, which HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON, do not rely on branch predictions
as it seems to be pointless [1] and thus callers should not be trying to
push an optimization in the first place.
(3) For CONFIG_BUG and !HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON cases, BUG_ON() contains an
unlikely compiler flag already.
Hence, we can drop unlikely behind BUG_ON().

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()):

preempt_schedule_common() is marked notrace, but it does not use
_notrace() preempt_count functions and __schedule() is also not marked
notrace, which means that its perfectly possible to end up in the
tracer from preempt_schedule_common().
Steve says:
| Yep, there's some history to this. This was originally the issue that
| caused function tracing to go into infinite recursion. But now we have
| preempt_schedule_notrace(), which is used by the function tracer, and
| that function must not be traced till preemption is disabled.
|
| Now if function tracing is running and we take an interrupt when
| NEED_RESCHED is set, it calls
|
| preempt_schedule_common() (not traced)
|
| But then that calls preempt_disable() (traced)
|
| function tracer calls preempt_disable_notrace() followed by
| preempt_enable_notrace() which will see NEED_RESCHED set, and it will
| call preempt_schedule_notrace(), which stops the recursion, but
| still calls __schedule() here, and that means when we return, we call
| the __schedule() from preempt_schedule_common().
|
| That said, I prefer this patch. Preemption is disabled before calling
| __schedule(), and we get rid of a one round recursion with the
| scheduler.

When we warn about a preempt_count leak; reset the preempt_count to
the known good value such that the problem does not ripple forward.
This is most important on x86 which has a per cpu preempt_count that is
not saved/restored (after this series). So if you schedule with an
invalid (!2*PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET) preempt_count the next task is
messed up too.
Enforcing this invariant limits the borkage to just the one task.

Assuming units of PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET for preempt_count() numbers.
Now that TASK_DEAD no longer results in preempt_count() == 3 during
scheduling, we will always call context_switch() with preempt_count()
== 2.
However, we don't always end up with preempt_count() == 2 in
finish_task_switch() because new tasks get created with
preempt_count() == 1.
Create FORK_PREEMPT_COUNT and set it to 2 and use that in the right
places. Note that we cannot use INIT_PREEMPT_COUNT as that serves
another purpose (boot).
After this, preempt_count() is invariant across the context switch,
with exception of PREEMPT_ACTIVE.

TASK_DEAD is special in that the final schedule call from do_exit()
must be done with preemption disabled.
This means we end up scheduling with a preempt_count() higher than
usual (3 instead of the 'expected' 2).
Since future patches will want to rely on an invariant
preempt_count() value during schedule, fix this up.

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.

This reverts commit 51360155ec and adapts
fs/userfaultfd.c to use the old version of that function.
It didn't look robust to call __wake_up_common with "nr == 1" when we
absolutely require wakeall semantics, but we've full control of what we
insert in the two waitqueue heads of the blocked userfaults. No
exclusive waitqueue risks to be inserted into those two waitqueue heads
so we can as well stick to "nr == 1" of the old code and we can rely
purely on the fact no waitqueue inserted in one of the two waitqueue
heads we must enforce as wakeall, has wait->flags WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE set.

Commit 2ee507c472 ("sched: Add function single_task_running to let a task
check if it is the only task running on a cpu") referenced the current
runqueue with the smp_processor_id. When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled,
that is only allowed if preemption is disabled or the currrent task is
bound to the local cpu (e.g. kernel worker).
With commit f781951299 ("kvm: add halt_poll_ns module parameter") KVM
calls single_task_running. If CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled that
generates a lot of kernel messages.
To avoid adding preemption in that cases, as it would limit the usefulness,
we change single_task_running to access directly the cpu local runqueue.

Currently task_numa_work() scans up to numa_balancing_scan_size_mb worth
of memory per invocation, but only counts memory areas that have at
least one PTE that is still present and not marked for numa hint faulting.
It will skip over arbitarily large amounts of memory that are either
unused, full of swap ptes, or full of PTEs that were already marked
for NUMA hint faults but have not been faulted on yet.
This can cause excessive amounts of CPU use, due to there being
essentially no upper limit on the scan rate of very large processes
that are not yet in a phase where they are actively accessing old
memory pages (eg. they are still initializing their data).
Avoid that problem by placing an upper limit on the amount of virtual
memory that task_numa_work() scans in each invocation. This can be a
higher limit than "pages", to ensure the task still skips over unused
areas fairly quickly.
While we are here, also fix the "nr_pte_updates" logic, so it only
counts page ranges with ptes in them.

Sasha reports that his virtual machine tries to schedule the idle
thread since commit 6c37067e27 ("sched: Change the
sched_class::set_cpus_allowed() calling context").
Hit trace shows this happening from idle_thread_get()->init_idle(),
which is the _second_ init_idle() invocation on that task_struct, the
first being done through idle_init()->fork_idle(). (this code is
insane...)
Because we call init_idle() twice in a row, its ->sched_class ==
&idle_sched_class and ->on_rq = TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED. This means
do_set_cpus_allowed() think we're queued and will call dequeue_task(),
which is implemented with BUG() for the idle class, seeing how
dequeueing the idle task is a daft thing.
Aside of the whole insanity of calling init_idle() _twice_, change the
code to call set_cpus_allowed_common() instead as this is 'obviously'
before the idle task gets ran etc..

Currently the load_{sum,avg} and util_{sum,avg} tracking is asymmetric
in that load tracking gets a 2^10 unit from the weight, but util gets
no such factor.
This results in more lost bits for util scaling and asymmetric scaling
rules.
Fix this by removing shifts, such that we gain the 2^10 factor from
scaling. There is no risk of overflowing the u32 as the max value is
now LOAD_AVG_MAX << 10, which is still well below UINT_MAX.
This further entangles the assumption that both LOAD and CAPACITY
shifts are the same (and 10) so put in an assertion for that.
This fixes the math for the LOAD_RESOLUTION != 0 case.

Prior to this patch; the line:
scaled_delta_w = (delta_w * 1024) >> 10;
which is the result of the default arch_scale_freq_capacity()
function, turns into:
1b03: 49 89 d1 mov %rdx,%r9
1b06: 49 c1 e1 0a shl $0xa,%r9
1b0a: 49 c1 e9 0a shr $0xa,%r9
Which is silly; when made unsigned int, GCC recognises this as
pointless ops and fails to emit them (confirmed on 4.9.3 and 5.1.1).
Furthermore, afaict unsigned is actually the correct type for these
fields anyway, as we've explicitly ruled out negative delta's earlier
in this function.

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.
