Tao suggested a two-pass task selection to avoid the retry loop.
Not only does it avoid the retry loop, it results in *much* simpler
code.
This also fixes an issue spotted by Josh Don where, for SMT3+, we can
forget to update max on the first pass and get to do an extra round.

With PREEMPT_RT enabled all hrtimers callbacks will be invoked in
softirq mode unless they are explicitly marked as HRTIMER_MODE_HARD.
During boot kthread_bind() is used for the creation of per-CPU threads
and then hangs in wait_task_inactive() if the ksoftirqd is not
yet up and running.
The hang disappeared since commit
26c7295be0 ("kthread: Do not preempt current task if it is going to call schedule()")
but enabling function trace on boot reliably leads to the freeze on boot
behaviour again.
The timer in wait_task_inactive() can not be directly used by a user
interface to abuse it and create a mass wake up of several tasks at the
same time leading to long sections with disabled interrupts.
Therefore it is safe to make the timer HRTIMER_MODE_REL_HARD.
Switch the timer to HRTIMER_MODE_REL_HARD.

For !RT kernels RCU nest depth in __might_resched() is always expected to
be 0, but on RT kernels it can be non zero while the preempt count is
expected to be always 0.
Instead of playing magic games in interpreting the 'preempt_offset'
argument, rename it to 'offsets' and use the lower 8 bits for the expected
preempt count, allow to hand in the expected RCU nest depth in the upper
bits and adopt the __might_resched() code and related checks and printks.
The affected call sites are updated in subsequent steps.

might_sleep() output is pretty informative, but can be confusing at times
especially with PREEMPT_RCU when the check triggers due to a voluntary
sleep inside a RCU read side critical section:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:110
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
Preemption disabled at: migrate_disable+0x33/0xa0
in_atomic() is 0, but it still tells that preemption was disabled at
migrate_disable(), which is completely useless because preemption is not
disabled. But the interesting information to decode the above, i.e. the RCU
nesting depth, is not printed.
That becomes even more confusing when might_sleep() is invoked from
cond_resched_lock() within a RCU read side critical section. Here the
expected preemption count is 1 and not 0.
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:131
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
Preemption disabled at: test_cond_lock+0xf3/0x1c0
So in_atomic() is set, which is expected as the caller holds a spinlock,
but it's unclear why this is broken and the preempt disable IP is just
pointing at the correct place, i.e. spin_lock(), which is obviously not
helpful either.
Make that more useful in general:
- Print preempt_count() and the expected value
and for the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU case:
- Print the RCU read side critical section nesting depth
- Print the preempt disable IP only when preempt count
does not have the expected value.
So the might_sleep() dump from a within a preemptible RCU read side
critical section becomes:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:110
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
preempt_count: 0, expected: 0
RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0
and the cond_resched_lock() case becomes:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:141
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
preempt_count: 1, expected: 1
RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0
which makes is pretty obvious what's going on. For all other cases the
preempt disable IP is still printed as before:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c: 156
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: swapper/0
preempt_count: 1, expected: 0
RCU nest depth: 0, expected: 0
Preemption disabled at:
[<ffffffff82b48326>] test_might_sleep+0xbe/0xf8
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c: 163
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: swapper/0
preempt_count: 1, expected: 0
RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0
Preemption disabled at:
[<ffffffff82b48326>] test_might_sleep+0x1e4/0x280

__might_sleep() vs. ___might_sleep() is hard to distinguish. Aside of that
the three underscore variant is exposed to provide a checkpoint for
rescheduling points which are distinct from blocking points.
They are semantically a preemption point which means that scheduling is
state preserving. A real blocking operation, e.g. mutex_lock(), wait*(),
which cannot preserve a task state which is not equal to RUNNING.
While technically blocking on a "sleeping" spinlock in RT enabled kernels
falls into the voluntary scheduling category because it has to wait until
the contended spin/rw lock becomes available, the RT lock substitution code
can semantically be mapped to a voluntary preemption because the RT lock
substitution code and the scheduler are providing mechanisms to preserve
the task state and to take regular non-lock related wakeups into account.
Rename ___might_sleep() to __might_resched() to make the distinction of
these functions clear.

sched: Prevent balance_push() on remote runqueues
sched/idle: Make the idle timer expire in hard interrupt context
sched_setscheduler() and rt_mutex_setprio() invoke the run-queue balance
callback after changing priorities or the scheduling class of a task. The
run-queue for which the callback is invoked can be local or remote.
That's not a problem for the regular rq::push_work which is serialized with
a busy flag in the run-queue struct, but for the balance_push() work which
is only valid to be invoked on the outgoing CPU that's wrong. It not only
triggers the debug warning, but also leaves the per CPU variable push_work
unprotected, which can result in double enqueues on the stop machine list.
Remove the warning and validate that the function is invoked on the
outgoing CPU.

The regular pile:
- A few improvements to the mutex code
- Documentation updates for atomics to clarify the difference between
cmpxchg() and try_cmpxchg() and to explain the forward progress
expectations.
- Simplification of the atomics fallback generator
- The addition of arch_atomic_long*() variants and generic arch_*()
bitops based on them.
- Add the missing might_sleep() invocations to the down*() operations of
semaphores.
The PREEMPT_RT locking core:
- Scheduler updates to support the state preserving mechanism for
'sleeping' spin- and rwlocks on RT. This mechanism is carefully
preserving the state of the task when blocking on a 'sleeping' spin- or
rwlock and takes regular wake-ups targeted at the same task into
account. The preserved or updated (via a regular wakeup) state is
restored when the lock has been acquired.
- Restructuring of the rtmutex code so it can be utilized and extended
for the RT specific lock variants.
- Restructuring of the ww_mutex code to allow sharing of the ww_mutex
specific functionality for rtmutex based ww_mutexes.
- Header file disentangling to allow substitution of the regular lock
implementations with the PREEMPT_RT variants without creating an
unmaintainable #ifdef mess.
- Shared base code for the PREEMPT_RT specific rw_semaphore and rwlock
implementations. Contrary to the regular rw_semaphores and rwlocks the
PREEMPT_RT implementation is writer unfair because it is infeasible to
do priority inheritance on multiple readers. Experience over the years
has shown that real-time workloads are not the typical workloads which
are sensitive to writer starvation. The alternative solution would be
to allow only a single reader which has been tried and discarded as it
is a major bottleneck especially for mmap_sem. Aside of that many of
the writer starvation critical usage sites have been converted to a
writer side mutex/spinlock and RCU read side protections in the past
decade so that the issue is less prominent than it used to be.
- The actual rtmutex based lock substitutions for PREEMPT_RT enabled
kernels which affect mutex, ww_mutex, rw_semaphore, spinlock_t and
rwlock_t. The spin/rw_lock*() functions disable migration across the
critical section to preserve the existing semantics vs. per CPU
variables.
- Rework of the futex REQUEUE_PI mechanism to handle the case of early
wake-ups which interleave with a re-queue operation to prevent the
situation that a task would be blocked on both the rtmutex associated
to the outer futex and the rtmutex based hash bucket spinlock.
While this situation cannot happen on !RT enabled kernels the changes
make the underlying concurrency problems easier to understand in
general. As a result the difference between !RT and RT kernels is
reduced to the handling of waiting for the critical section. !RT
kernels simply spin-wait as before and RT kernels utilize rcu_wait().
- The substitution of local_lock for PREEMPT_RT with a spinlock which
protects the critical section while staying preemptible. The CPU
locality is established by disabling migration.
The underlying concepts of this code have been in use in PREEMPT_RT for
way more than a decade. The code has been refactored several times over
the years and this final incarnation has been optimized once again to be
as non-intrusive as possible, i.e. the RT specific parts are mostly
isolated.
It has been extensively tested in the 5.14-rt patch series and it has
been verified that !RT kernels are not affected by these changes.

Asymmetric systems may not offer the same level of userspace ISA support
across all CPUs, meaning that some applications cannot be executed by
some CPUs. As a concrete example, upcoming arm64 big.LITTLE designs do
not feature support for 32-bit applications on both clusters.
Although userspace can carefully manage the affinity masks for such
tasks, one place where it is particularly problematic is execve()
because the CPU on which the execve() is occurring may be incompatible
with the new application image. In such a situation, it is desirable to
restrict the affinity mask of the task and ensure that the new image is
entered on a compatible CPU. From userspace's point of view, this looks
the same as if the incompatible CPUs have been hotplugged off in the
task's affinity mask. Similarly, if a subsequent execve() reverts to
a compatible image, then the old affinity is restored if it is still
valid.
In preparation for restricting the affinity mask for compat tasks on
arm64 systems without uniform support for 32-bit applications, introduce
{force,relax}_compatible_cpus_allowed_ptr(), which respectively restrict
and restore the affinity mask for a task based on the compatible CPUs.

Asymmetric systems may not offer the same level of userspace ISA support
across all CPUs, meaning that some applications cannot be executed by
some CPUs. As a concrete example, upcoming arm64 big.LITTLE designs do
not feature support for 32-bit applications on both clusters.
On such a system, we must take care not to migrate a task to an
unsupported CPU when forcefully moving tasks in select_fallback_rq()
in response to a CPU hot-unplug operation.
Introduce a task_cpu_possible_mask() hook which, given a task argument,
allows an architecture to return a cpumask of CPUs that are capable of
executing that task. The default implementation returns the
cpu_possible_mask, since sane machines do not suffer from per-cpu ISA
limitations that affect scheduling. The new mask is used when selecting
the fallback runqueue as a last resort before forcing a migration to the
first active CPU.

This extends SCHED_IDLE to cgroups.
Interface: cgroup/cpu.idle.
0: default behavior
1: SCHED_IDLE
Extending SCHED_IDLE to cgroups means that we incorporate the existing
aspects of SCHED_IDLE; a SCHED_IDLE cgroup will count all of its
descendant threads towards the idle_h_nr_running count of all of its
ancestor cgroups. Thus, sched_idle_rq() will work properly.
Additionally, SCHED_IDLE cgroups are configured with minimum weight.
There are two key differences between the per-task and per-cgroup
SCHED_IDLE interface:
- The cgroup interface allows tasks within a SCHED_IDLE hierarchy to
maintain their relative weights. The entity that is "idle" is the
cgroup, not the tasks themselves.
- Since the idle entity is the cgroup, our SCHED_IDLE wakeup preemption
decision is not made by comparing the current task with the woken
task, but rather by comparing their matching sched_entity.
A typical use-case for this is a user that creates an idle and a
non-idle subtree. The non-idle subtree will dominate competition vs
the idle subtree, but the idle subtree will still be high priority vs
other users on the system. The latter is accomplished via comparing
matching sched_entity in the waken preemption path (this could also be
improved by making the sched_idle_rq() decision dependent on the
perspective of a specific task).
For now, we maintain the existing SCHED_IDLE semantics. Future patches
may make improvements that extend how we treat SCHED_IDLE entities.
The per-task_group idle field is an integer that currently only holds
either a 0 or a 1. This is explicitly typed as an integer to allow for
further extensions to this API. For example, a negative value may
indicate a highly latency-sensitive cgroup that should be preferred
for preemption/placement/etc.

RT enabled kernels substitute spin/rwlocks with 'sleeping' variants based
on rtmutexes. Blocking on such a lock is similar to preemption versus:
- I/O scheduling and worker handling, because these functions might block
on another substituted lock, or come from a lock contention within these
functions.
- RCU considers this like a preemption, because the task might be in a read
side critical section.
Add a separate scheduling point for this, and hand a new scheduling mode
argument to __schedule() which allows, along with separate mode masks, to
handle this gracefully from within the scheduler, without proliferating that
to other subsystems like RCU.

PREEMPT_RT needs to hand a special state into __schedule() when a task
blocks on a 'sleeping' spin/rwlock. This is required to handle
rcu_note_context_switch() correctly without having special casing in the
RCU code. From an RCU point of view the blocking on the sleeping spinlock
is equivalent to preemption, because the task might be in a read side
critical section.
schedule_debug() also has a check which would trigger with the !preempt
case, but that could be handled differently.
To avoid adding another argument and extra checks which cannot be optimized
out by the compiler, the following solution has been chosen:
- Replace the boolean 'preempt' argument with an unsigned integer
'sched_mode' argument and define constants to hand in:
(0 == no preemption, 1 = preemption).
- Add two masks to apply on that mode: one for the debug/rcu invocations,
and one for the actual scheduling decision.
For a non RT kernel these masks are UINT_MAX, i.e. all bits are set,
which allows the compiler to optimize the AND operation out, because it is
not masking out anything. IOW, it's not different from the boolean.
RT enabled kernels will define these masks separately.

Waiting for spinlocks and rwlocks on non RT enabled kernels is task::state
preserving. Any wakeup which matches the state is valid.
RT enabled kernels substitutes them with 'sleeping' spinlocks. This creates
an issue vs. task::__state.
In order to block on the lock, the task has to overwrite task::__state and a
consecutive wakeup issued by the unlocker sets the state back to
TASK_RUNNING. As a consequence the task loses the state which was set
before the lock acquire and also any regular wakeup targeted at the task
while it is blocked on the lock.
To handle this gracefully, add a 'saved_state' member to task_struct which
is used in the following way:
1) When a task blocks on a 'sleeping' spinlock, the current state is saved
in task::saved_state before it is set to TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT.
2) When the task unblocks and after acquiring the lock, it restores the saved
state.
3) When a regular wakeup happens for a task while it is blocked then the
state change of that wakeup is redirected to operate on task::saved_state.
This is also required when the task state is running because the task
might have been woken up from the lock wait and has not yet restored
the saved state.
To make it complete, provide the necessary helpers to save and restore the
saved state along with the necessary documentation how the RT lock blocking
is supposed to work.
For non-RT kernels there is no functional change.

RT kernels have a slightly more complicated handling of wakeups due to
'sleeping' spin/rwlocks. If a task is blocked on such a lock then the
original state of the task is preserved over the blocking period, and
any regular (non lock related) wakeup has to be targeted at the
saved state to ensure that these wakeups are not lost.
Once the task acquires the lock it restores the task state from the saved state.
To avoid cluttering try_to_wake_up() with that logic, split the wakeup
state check out into an inline helper and use it at both places where
task::__state is checked against the state argument of try_to_wake_up().

SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS can be passed to sched_setattr to specify that
the call must not touch scheduling parameters (nice or priority). This
is particularly handy for uclamp when used in conjunction with
SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY as that allows to issue a syscall that only
impacts uclamp values.
However, sched_setattr always checks whether the priorities and nice
values passed in sched_attr are valid first, even if those never get
used down the line. This is useless at best since userspace can
trivially bypass this check to set the uclamp values by specifying low
priorities. However, it is cumbersome to do so as there is no single
expression of this that skips both RT and CFS checks at once. As such,
userspace needs to query the task policy first with e.g. sched_getattr
and then set sched_attr.sched_priority accordingly. This is racy and
slower than a single call.
As the priority and nice checks are useless when SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS
is specified, simply inherit them in this case to match the policy
inheritance of SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY.

The UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE flag is set on a runqueue when dequeueing the last
uclamp active task (that is, when buckets.tasks reaches 0 for all
buckets) to maintain the last uclamp.max and prevent blocked util from
suddenly becoming visible.
However, there is an asymmetry in how the flag is set and cleared which
can lead to having the flag set whilst there are active tasks on the rq.
Specifically, the flag is cleared in the uclamp_rq_inc() path, which is
called at enqueue time, but set in uclamp_rq_dec_id() which is called
both when dequeueing a task _and_ in the update_uclamp_active() path. As
a result, when both uclamp_rq_{dec,ind}_id() are called from
update_uclamp_active(), the flag ends up being set but not cleared,
hence leaving the runqueue in a broken state.
Fix this by clearing the flag in update_uclamp_active() as well.

__sched_setscheduler() uses rt_effective_prio() to handle proper queuing
of priority boosted tasks that are setscheduled while being boosted.
rt_effective_prio() is however called twice per each
__sched_setscheduler() call: first directly by __sched_setscheduler()
before dequeuing the task and then by __setscheduler() to actually do
the priority change. If the priority of the pi_top_task is concurrently
being changed however, it might happen that the two calls return
different results. If, for example, the first call returned the same rt
priority the task was running at and the second one a fair priority, the
task won't be removed by the rt list (on_list still set) and then
enqueued in the fair runqueue. When eventually setscheduled back to rt
it will be seen as enqueued already and the WARNING/BUG be issued.
Fix this by calling rt_effective_prio() only once and then reusing the
return value. While at it refactor code as well for clarity. Concurrent
priority inheritance handling is still safe and will eventually converge
to a new state by following the inheritance chain(s).

The Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) is providing a frequency scaling
correction factor that helps achieve more accurate load-tracking.
Normally, this scaling factor can be obtained directly with the help of
the cpufreq drivers as they know the exact frequency the hardware is
running at. But that isn't the case for CPPC cpufreq driver.
Another way of obtaining that is using the arch specific counter
support, which is already present in kernel, but that hardware is
optional for platforms.
This patch updates the CPPC driver to register itself with the topology
core to provide its own implementation (cppc_scale_freq_tick()) of
topology_scale_freq_tick() which gets called by the scheduler on every
tick. Note that the arch specific counters have higher priority than
CPPC counters, if available, though the CPPC driver doesn't need to have
any special handling for that.
On an invocation of cppc_scale_freq_tick(), we schedule an irq work
(since we reach here from hard-irq context), which then schedules a
normal work item and cppc_scale_freq_workfn() updates the per_cpu
arch_freq_scale variable based on the counter updates since the last
tick.
To allow platforms to disable this CPPC counter-based frequency
invariance support, this is all done under CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE,
which is enabled by default.
This also exports sched_setattr_nocheck() as the CPPC driver can be
built as a module.

Merge tag 'sched-core-2021-06-28' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler udpates from Ingo Molnar:
- Changes to core scheduling facilities:
- Add "Core Scheduling" via CONFIG_SCHED_CORE=y, which enables
coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow the
flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing untrusted
domains to information leaks & side channels, plus to ensure more
deterministic computing performance on SMT systems used by
heterogenous workloads.
There are new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which allows
more flexible management of workloads that can share siblings.
- Fix task->state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
wakeups and rename it to ->__state in the process to catch new
abuses.
- Load-balancing changes:
- Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve 'memcache'-like
workloads.
- "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track & improve
workloads such as 'tbench'.
- Fix & improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic & metrics.
- Fix & improve the uclamp metrics.
- Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.
- Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes
- Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
quota to improve overall latencies & batching. Can be tweaked via
/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/<X>/cpu.cfs_burst_us.
- Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection & handling.
- Scheduler statistics & tooling:
- Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable it at
runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and other
optimizations to make it more palatable.
- Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().
- Misc cleanups and fixes.

On a 128 cores AMD machine, there are 8 cores in nohz_full mode, and
the others are used for housekeeping. When many housekeeping cpus are
in idle state, we can observe huge time burn in the loop for searching
nearest busy housekeeper cpu by ftrace.
9) | get_nohz_timer_target() {
9) | housekeeping_test_cpu() {
9) 0.390 us | housekeeping_get_mask.part.1();
9) 0.561 us | }
9) 0.090 us | __rcu_read_lock();
9) 0.090 us | housekeeping_cpumask();
9) 0.521 us | housekeeping_cpumask();
9) 0.140 us | housekeeping_cpumask();

9) 0.090 us | housekeeping_get_mask.part.1();
9) 0.100 us | sched_numa_find_closest();
9) 0.491 us | }
9) 0.100 us | __rcu_read_unlock();
9) + 76.163 us | }
for_each_cpu_and() is a micro function, so in get_nohz_timer_target()
function the
for_each_cpu_and(i, sched_domain_span(sd),
housekeeping_cpumask(HK_FLAG_TIMER))
equals to below:
for (i = -1; i = cpumask_next_and(i, sched_domain_span(sd),
housekeeping_cpumask(HK_FLAG_TIMER)), i < nr_cpu_ids;)
That will cause that housekeeping_cpumask() will be invoked many times.
The housekeeping_cpumask() function returns a const value, so it is
unnecessary to invoke it every time. This patch can minimize the worst
searching time from ~76us to ~16us in my testing.
Similarly, the find_new_ilb() function has the same problem.

The CFS bandwidth controller limits CPU requests of a task group to
quota during each period. However, parallel workloads might be bursty
so that they get throttled even when their average utilization is under
quota. And they are latency sensitive at the same time so that
throttling them is undesired.
We borrow time now against our future underrun, at the cost of increased
interference against the other system users. All nicely bounded.
Traditional (UP-EDF) bandwidth control is something like:
(U = \Sum u_i) <= 1
This guaranteeds both that every deadline is met and that the system is
stable. After all, if U were > 1, then for every second of walltime,
we'd have to run more than a second of program time, and obviously miss
our deadline, but the next deadline will be further out still, there is
never time to catch up, unbounded fail.
This work observes that a workload doesn't always executes the full
quota; this enables one to describe u_i as a statistical distribution.
For example, have u_i = {x,e}_i, where x is the p(95) and x+e p(100)
(the traditional WCET). This effectively allows u to be smaller,
increasing the efficiency (we can pack more tasks in the system), but at
the cost of missing deadlines when all the odds line up. However, it
does maintain stability, since every overrun must be paired with an
underrun as long as our x is above the average.
That is, suppose we have 2 tasks, both specify a p(95) value, then we
have a p(95)*p(95) = 90.25% chance both tasks are within their quota and
everything is good. At the same time we have a p(5)p(5) = 0.25% chance
both tasks will exceed their quota at the same time (guaranteed deadline
fail). Somewhere in between there's a threshold where one exceeds and
the other doesn't underrun enough to compensate; this depends on the
specific CDFs.
At the same time, we can say that the worst case deadline miss, will be
\Sum e_i; that is, there is a bounded tardiness (under the assumption
that x+e is indeed WCET).
The benefit of burst is seen when testing with schbench. Default value of
kernel.sched_cfs_bandwidth_slice_us(5ms) and CONFIG_HZ(1000) is used.
mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cgroup.procs

echo 100000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cpu.cfs_burst_us
./schbench -m 1 -t 3 -r 20 -c 80000 -R 10
The average CPU usage is at 80%. I run this for 10 times, and got long tail
latency for 6 times and got throttled for 8 times.
Tail latencies are shown below, and it wasn't the worst case.
Latency percentiles (usec)

The interferenece when using burst is valued by the possibilities for
missing the deadline and the average WCET. Test results showed that when
there many cgroups or CPU is under utilized, the interference is
limited. More details are shown in:

Now cpu.uclamp.min acts as a protection, we need to make sure that the
uclamp request of the task is within the allowed range of the cgroup,
that is it is clamp()'ed correctly by tg->uclamp[UCLAMP_MIN] and
tg->uclamp[UCLAMP_MAX].
As reported by Xuewen [1] we can have some corner cases where there's
inversion between uclamp requested by task (p) and the uclamp values of
the taskgroup it's attached to (tg). Following table demonstrates
2 corner cases:
| p | tg | effective
-----------+-----+------+-----------
CASE 1
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_min | 60% | 0% | 60%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_max | 80% | 50% | 50%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
CASE 2
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_min | 0% | 30% | 30%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_max | 20% | 50% | 20%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
With this fix we get:
| p | tg | effective
-----------+-----+------+-----------
CASE 1
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_min | 60% | 0% | 50%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_max | 80% | 50% | 50%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
CASE 2
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_min | 0% | 30% | 30%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
uclamp_max | 20% | 50% | 30%
-----------+-----+------+-----------
Additionally uclamp_update_active_tasks() must now unconditionally
update both UCLAMP_MIN/MAX because changing the tg's UCLAMP_MAX for
instance could have an impact on the effective UCLAMP_MIN of the tasks.

This is a partial forward-port of Peter Ziljstra's work first posted
at:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180530142236.667774973@infradead.org/
Currently select_idle_cpu()'s proportional scheme uses the average idle
time *for when we are idle*, that is temporally challenged. When a CPU
is not at all idle, we'll happily continue using whatever value we did
see when the CPU goes idle. To fix this, introduce a separate average
idle and age it (the existing value still makes sense for things like
new-idle balancing, which happens when we do go idle).
The overall goal is to not spend more time scanning for idle CPUs than
we're idle for. Otherwise we're inhibiting work. This means that we need to
consider the cost over all the wake-ups between consecutive idle periods.
To track this, the scan cost is subtracted from the estimated average
idle time.
The impact of this patch is related to workloads that have domains that
are fully busy or overloaded. Without the patch, the scan depth may be
too high because a CPU is not reaching idle.
Due to the nature of the patch, this is a regression magnet. It
potentially wins when domains are almost fully busy or overloaded --
at that point searches are likely to fail but idle is not being aged
as CPUs are active so search depth is too large and useless. It will
potentially show regressions when there are idle CPUs and a deep search is
beneficial. This tbench result on a 2-socket broadwell machine partially
illustates the problem

Again, higher thread counts benefit and the standard deviation
shows that results are also a lot more stable when the idle
time is aged.
The patch potentially matters when a socket was multiple LLCs as the
maximum search depth is lower. However, some of the test results were
suspiciously good (e.g. specjbb2005 gaining 50% on a Zen1 machine) and
other results were not dramatically different to other mcahines.
Given the nature of the patch, Peter's full series is not being forward
ported as each part should stand on its own. Preferably they would be
merged at different times to reduce the risk of false bisections.

Will reported that the 'XXX __migrate_task() can fail' in migration_cpu_stop()
can happen, and it *is* sort of a big deal. Looking at it some more, one
will note there is a glaring hole in the deferred CPU selection:
(w/ CONFIG_CPUSET=n, so that the affinity mask passed via taskset doesn't
get AND'd with cpu_online_mask)
$ taskset -pc 0-2 $PID
# offline CPUs 3-4
$ taskset -pc 3-5 $PID
`\
$PID may stay on 0-2 due to the cpumask_any_distribute() picking an
offline CPU and __migrate_task() refusing to do anything due to
cpu_is_allowed().
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() goes to some length to pick a dest_cpu that matches
the right constraints vs affinity and the online/active state of the
CPUs. Reuse that instead of discarding it in the affine_move_task() case.

cpu.uclamp.min is a protection as described in cgroup-v2 Resource
Distribution Model
Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst
which means we try our best to preserve the minimum performance point of
tasks in this group. See full description of cpu.uclamp.min in the
cgroup-v2.rst.
But the current implementation makes it a limit, which is not what was
intended.
For example:
tg->cpu.uclamp.min = 20%
p0->uclamp[UCLAMP_MIN] = 0
p1->uclamp[UCLAMP_MIN] = 50%
Previous Behavior (limit):
p0->effective_uclamp = 0
p1->effective_uclamp = 20%
New Behavior (Protection):
p0->effective_uclamp = 20%
p1->effective_uclamp = 50%
Which is inline with how protections should work.
With this change the cgroup and per-task behaviors are the same, as
expected.
Additionally, we remove the confusing relationship between cgroup and
!user_defined flag.
We don't want for example RT tasks that are boosted by default to max to
change their boost value when they attach to a cgroup. If a cgroup wants
to limit the max performance point of tasks attached to it, then
cpu.uclamp.max must be set accordingly.
Or if they want to set different boost value based on cgroup, then
sysctl_sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default must be used to NOT boost to max
and set the right cpu.uclamp.min for each group to let the RT tasks
obtain the desired boost value when attached to that group.
As it stands the dependency on !user_defined flag adds an extra layer of
complexity that is not required now cpu.uclamp.min behaves properly as
a protection.
The propagation model of effective cpu.uclamp.min in child cgroups as
implemented by cpu_util_update_eff() is still correct. The parent
protection sets an upper limit of what the child cgroups will
effectively get.

For all intents and purposes, the idle task is a per-CPU kthread. It isn't
created via the same route as other pcpu kthreads however, and as a result
it is missing a few bells and whistles: it fails kthread_is_per_cpu() and
it doesn't have PF_NO_SETAFFINITY set.
Fix the former by giving the idle task a kthread struct along with the
KTHREAD_IS_PER_CPU flag. This requires some extra iffery as init_idle()
call be called more than once on the same idle task.

When the tick dependency of a task is updated, we want it to aknowledge
the new state and restart the tick if needed. If the task is not
running, we don't need to kick it because it will observe the new
dependency upon scheduling in. But if the task is running, we may need
to send an IPI to it so that it gets notified.
Unfortunately we don't have the means to check if a task is running
in a race free way. Checking p->on_cpu in a synchronized way against
p->tick_dep_mask would imply adding a full barrier between
prepare_task_switch() and tick_nohz_task_switch(), which we want to
avoid in this fast-path.
Therefore we blindly fire an IPI to the task's CPU.
Meanwhile we can check if the task is queued on the CPU rq because
p->on_rq is always set to TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED _before_ schedule() and its
full barrier that precedes tick_nohz_task_switch(). And if the task is
queued on a nohz_full CPU, it also has fair chances to be running as the
isolation constraints prescribe running single tasks on full dynticks
CPUs.
So use this as a trick to check if we can spare an IPI toward a
non-running task.
NOTE: For the ordering to be correct, it is assumed that we never
deactivate a task while it is running, the only exception being the task
deactivating itself while scheduling out.

As pointed out by commit
de9b8f5dcb ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")
init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.
As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().
Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -> idle_init().
Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().
Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

During force-idle, we end up doing cross-cpu comparison of vruntimes
during pick_next_task. If we simply compare (vruntime-min_vruntime)
across CPUs, and if the CPUs only have 1 task each, we will always
end up comparing 0 with 0 and pick just one of the tasks all the time.
This starves the task that was not picked. To fix this, take a snapshot
of the min_vruntime when entering force idle and use it for comparison.
This min_vruntime snapshot will only be used for cross-CPU vruntime
comparison, and nothing else.
A note about the min_vruntime snapshot and force idling:
During selection:
When we're not fi, we need to update snapshot.
when we're fi and we were not fi, we must update snapshot.
When we're fi and we were already fi, we must not update snapshot.
Which gives:
fib fi update
0 0 1
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 0
Where:
fi: force-idled now
fib: force-idled before
So the min_vruntime snapshot needs to be updated when: !(fib && fi).
Also, the cfs_prio_less() function needs to be aware of whether the
core is in force idle or not, since it will be use this information to
know whether to advance a cfs_rq's min_vruntime_fi in the hierarchy.
So pass this information along via pick_task() -> prio_less().

The rationale is as follows. In the core-wide pick logic, even if
need_sync == false, we need to go look at other CPUs (non-local CPUs)
to see if they could be running RT.
Say the RQs in a particular core look like this:
Let CFS1 and CFS2 be 2 tagged CFS tags.
Let RT1 be an untagged RT task.
rq0 rq1
CFS1 (tagged) RT1 (no tag)
CFS2 (tagged)
Say schedule() runs on rq0. Now, it will enter the above loop and
pick_task(RT) will return NULL for 'p'. It will enter the above if()
block and see that need_sync == false and will skip RT entirely.
The end result of the selection will be (say prio(CFS1) > prio(CFS2)):
rq0 rq1
CFS1 IDLE
When it should have selected:
rq0 rq1
IDLE RT

If there is only one long running local task and the sibling is
forced idle, it might not get a chance to run until a schedule
event happens on any cpu in the core.
So we check for this condition during a tick to see if a sibling
is starved and then give it a chance to schedule.

Introduce task_struct::core_cookie as an opaque identifier for core
scheduling. When enabled; core scheduling will only allow matching
task to be on the core; where idle matches everything.
When task_struct::core_cookie is set (and core scheduling is enabled)
these tasks are indexed in a second RB-tree, first on cookie value
then on scheduling function, such that matching task selection always
finds the most elegible match.
NOTE: *shudder* at the overhead...
NOTE: *sigh*, a 3rd copy of the scheduling function; the alternative
is per class tracking of cookies and that just duplicates a lot of
stuff for no raisin (the 2nd copy lives in the rt-mutex PI code).

This relies on the rq->__lock order being in increasing CPU number

When switching on core-sched, CPUs need to agree which lock to use for
their RQ.
The new rule will be that rq->core_enabled will be toggled while
holding all rq->__locks that belong to a core. This means we need to
double check the rq->core_enabled value after each lock acquire and
retry if it changed.
This also has implications for those sites that take multiple RQ
locks, they need to be careful that the second lock doesn't end up
being the first lock.
Verify the lock pointer after acquiring the first lock, because if
they're on the same core, holding any of the rq->__lock instances will
pin the core state.
While there, change the rq->__lock order to CPU number, instead of rq
address, this greatly simplifies the next patch.

Util-clamp places tasks in different buckets based on their clamp values
for performance reasons. However, the size of buckets is currently
computed using a rounding division, which can lead to an off-by-one
error in some configurations.
For instance, with 20 buckets, the bucket size will be 1024/20=51. A
task with a clamp of 1024 will be mapped to bucket id 1024/51=20. Sadly,
correct indexes are in range [0,19], hence leading to an out of bound
memory access.
Clamp the bucket id to fix the issue.

The kthread_is_per_cpu() construct relies on only being called on
PF_KTHREAD tasks (per the WARN in to_kthread). This gives rise to the
following usage pattern:
if ((p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) && kthread_is_per_cpu(p))
However, as reported by syzcaller, this is broken. The scenario is:
CPU0 CPU1 (running p)
(p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) // true
begin_new_exec()
me->flags &= ~(PF_KTHREAD|...);
kthread_is_per_cpu(p)
to_kthread(p)
WARN(!(p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) <-- *SPLAT*
Introduce __to_kthread() that omits the WARN and is sure to check both
values.
Use this to remove the problematic pattern for kthread_is_per_cpu()
and fix a number of other kthread_*() functions that have similar
issues but are currently not used in ways that would expose the
problem.
Notably kthread_func() is only ever called on 'current', while
kthread_probe_data() is only used for PF_WQ_WORKER, which implies the
task is from kthread_create*().

CPU scheduler marks need_resched flag to signal a schedule() on a
particular CPU. But, schedule() may not happen immediately in cases
where the current task is executing in the kernel mode (no
preemption state) for extended periods of time.
This patch adds a warn_on if need_resched is pending for more than the
time specified in sysctl resched_latency_warn_ms. If it goes off, it is
likely that there is a missing cond_resched() somewhere. Monitoring is
done via the tick and the accuracy is hence limited to jiffy scale. This
also means that we won't trigger the warning if the tick is disabled.
This feature (LATENCY_WARN) is default disabled.

Use the new cpu_dying() state to simplify and fix the balance_push()
vs CPU hotplug rollback state.
Specifically, we currently rely on notifiers sched_cpu_dying() /
sched_cpu_activate() to terminate balance_push, however if the
cpu_down() fails when we're past sched_cpu_deactivate(), it should
terminate balance_push at that point and not wait until we hit
sched_cpu_activate().
Similarly, when cpu_up() fails and we're going back down, balance_push
should be active, where it currently is not.
So instead, make sure balance_push is enabled below SCHED_AP_ACTIVE
(when !cpu_active()), and gate it's utility with cpu_dying().

The Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) is providing a frequency scaling
correction factor that helps achieve more accurate load-tracking.
Normally, this scaling factor can be obtained directly with the help of
the cpufreq drivers as they know the exact frequency the hardware is
running at. But that isn't the case for CPPC cpufreq driver.
Another way of obtaining that is using the arch specific counter
support, which is already present in kernel, but that hardware is
optional for platforms.
This patch updates the CPPC driver to register itself with the topology
core to provide its own implementation (cppc_scale_freq_tick()) of
topology_scale_freq_tick() which gets called by the scheduler on every
tick. Note that the arch specific counters have higher priority than
CPPC counters, if available, though the CPPC driver doesn't need to have
any special handling for that.
On an invocation of cppc_scale_freq_tick(), we schedule an irq work
(since we reach here from hard-irq context), which then schedules a
normal work item and cppc_scale_freq_workfn() updates the per_cpu
arch_freq_scale variable based on the counter updates since the last
tick.
To allow platforms to disable this CPPC counter-based frequency
invariance support, this is all done under CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE,
which is enabled by default.
This also exports sched_setattr_nocheck() as the CPPC driver can be
built as a module.

Move the reclaim detection from the timer tick to the task state
tracking machinery using the recently added ONCPU state. And we
also add task psi_flags changes checking in the psi_task_switch()
optimization to update the parents properly.
In terms of performance and cost, this ONCPU task state tracking
is not cheaper than previous timer tick in aggregate. But the code is
simpler and shorter this way, so it's a maintainability win. And
Johannes did some testing with perf bench, the performace and cost
changes would be acceptable for real workloads.
Thanks to Johannes Weiner for pointing out the psi_task_switch()
optimization things and the clearer changelog.

When affine_move_task(p) is called on a running task @p, which is not
otherwise already changing affinity, we'll first set
p->migration_pending and then do:
stop_one_cpu(cpu_of_rq(rq), migration_cpu_stop, &arg);
This then gets us to migration_cpu_stop() running on the CPU that was
previously running our victim task @p.
If we find that our task is no longer on that runqueue (this can
happen because of a concurrent migration due to load-balance etc.),
then we'll end up at the:
} else if (dest_cpu < 1 || pending) {
branch. Which we'll take because we set pending earlier. Here we first
check if the task @p has already satisfied the affinity constraints,
if so we bail early [A]. Otherwise we'll reissue migration_cpu_stop()
onto the CPU that is now hosting our task @p:
stop_one_cpu_nowait(cpu_of(rq), migration_cpu_stop,
&pending->arg, &pending->stop_work);
Except, we've never initialized pending->arg, which will be all 0s.
This then results in running migration_cpu_stop() on the next CPU with
arg->p == NULL, which gives the by now obvious result of fireworks.
The cure is to change affine_move_task() to always use pending->arg,
furthermore we can use the exact same pattern as the
SCA_MIGRATE_ENABLE case, since we'll block on the pending->done
completion anyway, no point in adding yet another completion in
stop_one_cpu().
This then gives a clear distinction between the two
migration_cpu_stop() use cases:
- sched_exec() / migrate_task_to() : arg->pending == NULL
- affine_move_task() : arg->pending != NULL;
And we can have it ignore p->migration_pending when !arg->pending. Any
stop work from sched_exec() / migrate_task_to() is in addition to stop
works from affine_move_task(), which will be sufficient to issue the
completion.

- Core scheduler updates:
- Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the
preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full),

for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the
preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime
overhead even with the code patching. )

of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected.
- Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that
was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that
rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after
the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it
by chance but many others don't.
In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch
scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address
the underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the
initial fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug.

total-order; cmp() based:
- rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree
- rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found
- rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry
- rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first()

The HRTICK feature has traditionally been servicing configurations that
need precise preemptions point for NORMAL tasks. More recently, the
feature has been extended to also service DEADLINE tasks with stringent
runtime enforcement needs (e.g., runtime < 1ms with HZ=1000).
Enabling HRTICK sched feature currently enables the additional timer and
task tick for both classes, which might introduced undesired overhead
for no additional benefit if one needed it only for one of the cases.
Separate HRTICK sched feature in two (and leave the traditional case
name unmodified) so that it can be selectively enabled when needed.
With:
$ echo HRTICK > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
the NORMAL/fair hrtick gets enabled.
With:
$ echo HRTICK_DL > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
the DEADLINE hrtick gets enabled.

Hung tasks and RCU stall cases were reported on systems which were not
100% busy. Investigation of such unexpected cases (no sign of potential
starvation caused by tasks hogging the system) pointed out that the
periodic sched tick timer wasn't serviced anymore after a certain point
and that caused all machinery that depends on it (timers, RCU, etc.) to
stop working as well. This issues was however only reproducible if
HRTICK was enabled.
Looking at core dumps it was found that the rbtree of the hrtimer base
used also for the hrtick was corrupted (i.e. next as seen from the base
root and actual leftmost obtained by traversing the tree are different).
Same base is also used for periodic tick hrtimer, which might get "lost"
if the rbtree gets corrupted.
Much alike what described in commit 1f71addd34 ("tick/sched: Do not
mess with an enqueued hrtimer") there is a race window between
hrtimer_set_expires() in hrtick_start and hrtimer_start_expires() in
__hrtick_restart() in which the former might be operating on an already
queued hrtick hrtimer, which might lead to corruption of the base.
Use hrtick_start() (which removes the timer before enqueuing it back) to
ensure hrtick hrtimer reprogramming is entirely guarded by the base
lock, so that no race conditions can occur.

Now that we have KTHREAD_IS_PER_CPU to denote the critical per-cpu
tasks to retain during CPU offline, we can relax the warning in
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Any spurious kthread that wants to get on at
the last minute will get pushed off before it can run.
While during CPU online there is no harm, and actual benefit, to
allowing kthreads back on early, it simplifies hotplug code and fixes
a number of outstanding races.

Prior to commit 1cf12e08bc ("sched/hotplug: Consolidate task
migration on CPU unplug") we'd leave any task on the dying CPU and
break affinity and force them off at the very end.
This scheme had to change in order to enable migrate_disable(). One
cannot wait for migrate_disable() to complete while stuck in
stop_machine(). Furthermore, since we need at the very least: idle,
hotplug and stop threads at any point before stop_machine, we can't
break affinity and/or push those away.
Under the assumption that all per-cpu kthreads are sanely handled by
CPU hotplug, the new code no long breaks affinity or migrates any of
them (which then includes the critical ones above).
However, there's an important difference between per-cpu kthreads and
kthreads that happen to have a single CPU affinity which is lost. The
latter class very much relies on the forced affinity breaking and
migration semantics previously provided.
Use the new kthread_is_per_cpu() infrastructure to tighten
is_per_cpu_kthread() and fix the hot-unplug problems stemming from the
change.

In preparation of using the balance_push state in ttwu() we need it to
provide a reliable and consistent state.
The immediate problem is that rq->balance_callback gets cleared every
schedule() and then re-set in the balance_push_callback() itself. This
is not a reliable signal, so add a variable that stays set during the
entire time.
Also move setting it before the synchronize_rcu() in

Since commit
1cf12e08bc ("sched/hotplug: Consolidate task migration on CPU unplug")
tasks are expected to move themselves out of a out-going CPU. For most
tasks this will be done automagically via BALANCE_PUSH, but percpu kthreads
will have to cooperate and move themselves away one way or another.
Currently, some percpu kthreads (workqueues being a notable exemple) do not
cooperate nicely and can end up on an out-going CPU at the time
sched_cpu_dying() is invoked.

SCHED_SOFTIRQ is raised to trigger periodic load balancing. When CPU is not
active, CPU should not participate in load balancing.
The scheduler uses nohz.idle_cpus_mask to keep track of the CPUs which can
do idle load balancing. When bringing a CPU up the CPU is added to the mask
when it reaches the active state, but on teardown the CPU stays in the mask
until it goes offline and invokes sched_cpu_dying().
When SCHED_SOFTIRQ is raised on a !active CPU, there might be a pending
softirq when stopping the tick which triggers a warning in NOHZ code. The
SCHED_SOFTIRQ can also be raised by the scheduler tick which has the same
issue.
Therefore remove the CPU from nohz.idle_cpus_mask when it is marked
inactive and also prevent the scheduler_tick() from raising SCHED_SOFTIRQ
after this point.

- Consolidate all kmap_atomic() internals into a generic implementation
which builds the base for the kmap_local() API and make the
kmap_atomic() interface wrappers which handle the disabling/enabling of
preemption and pagefaults.
- Switch the storage from per-CPU to per task and provide scheduler
support for clearing mapping when scheduling out and restoring them
when scheduling back in.
- Merge the migrate_disable/enable() code, which is also part of the
scheduler pull request. This was required to make the kmap_local()
interface available which does not disable preemption when a mapping
is established. It has to disable migration instead to guarantee that
the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same accross preemption.
- Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced utilization
of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the architecture allows
it.
- Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup the
kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage sites
do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and pagefaults so
the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is removed and quite
some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale conversion is not
possible because some usage depends on the implicit side effects and
some need to be cleaned up because they work around these side effects.
The migrate disable side effect is only effective on highmem systems
and when enforced debugging is enabled. On 64bit and 32bit non-highmem
systems the overhead is completely avoided.

Pull kmap updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The new preemtible kmap_local() implementation:
- Consolidate all kmap_atomic() internals into a generic
implementation which builds the base for the kmap_local() API and
make the kmap_atomic() interface wrappers which handle the
disabling/enabling of preemption and pagefaults.
- Switch the storage from per-CPU to per task and provide scheduler
support for clearing mapping when scheduling out and restoring them
when scheduling back in.
- Merge the migrate_disable/enable() code, which is also part of the
scheduler pull request. This was required to make the kmap_local()
interface available which does not disable preemption when a
mapping is established. It has to disable migration instead to
guarantee that the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same
across preemption.
- Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced
utilization of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the
architecture allows it.
- Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup
the kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage
sites do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and
pagefaults so the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is
removed and quite some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale
conversion is not possible because some usage depends on the
implicit side effects and some need to be cleaned up because they
work around these side effects.
The migrate disable side effect is only effective on highmem
systems and when enforced debugging is enabled. On 64bit and 32bit
non-highmem systems the overhead is completely avoided"

Instead of storing the map per CPU provide and use per task storage. That
prepares for local kmaps which are preemptible.
The context switch code is preparatory and not yet in use because
kmap_atomic() runs with preemption disabled. Will be made usable in the
next step.
The context switch logic is safe even when an interrupt happens after
clearing or before restoring the kmaps. The kmap index in task struct is
not modified so any nesting kmap in an interrupt will use unused indices
and on return the counter is the same as before.
Also add an assert into the return to user space code. Going back to user
space with an active kmap local is a nono.

Now that the scheduler can deal with migrate disable properly, there is no
real compelling reason to make it only available for RT.
There are quite some code pathes which needlessly disable preemption in
order to prevent migration and some constructs like kmap_atomic() enforce
it implicitly.
Making it available independent of RT allows to provide a preemptible
variant of kmap_atomic() and makes the code more consistent in general.

In case the user wants to stop controlling a uclamp constraint value
for a task, use the magic value -1 in sched_util_{min,max} with the
appropriate sched_flags (SCHED_FLAG_UTIL_CLAMP_{MIN,MAX}) to indicate
the reset.
The advantage over the 'additional flag' approach (i.e. introducing
SCHED_FLAG_UTIL_CLAMP_RESET) is that no additional flag has to be
exported via uapi. This avoids the need to document how this new flag
has be used in conjunction with the existing uclamp related flags.
The following subtle issue is fixed as well. When a uclamp constraint
value is set on a !user_defined uclamp_se it is currently first reset
and then set.
Fix this by AND'ing !user_defined with !SCHED_FLAG_UTIL_CLAMP which
stands for the 'sched class change' case.
The related condition 'if (uc_se->user_defined)' moved from
__setscheduler_uclamp() into uclamp_reset().

Qian reported that some fuzzer issuing sched_setaffinity() ends up stuck on
a wait_for_completion(). The problematic pattern seems to be:
affine_move_task()
// task_running() case
stop_one_cpu();
wait_for_completion(&pending->done);
Combined with, on the stopper side:
migration_cpu_stop()
// Task moved between unlocks and scheduling the stopper
task_rq(p) != rq &&
// task_running() case
dest_cpu >= 0
=> no complete_all()
This can happen with both PREEMPT and !PREEMPT, although !PREEMPT should
be more likely to see this given the targeted task has a much bigger window
to block and be woken up elsewhere before the stopper runs.
Make migration_cpu_stop() always look at pending affinity requests; signal
their completion if the stopper hits a rq mismatch but the task is
still within its allowed mask. When Migrate-Disable isn't involved, this
matches the previous set_cpus_allowed_ptr() vs migration_cpu_stop()
behaviour.

schedule_user() was traditionally used by the entry code's tail to
preempt userspace after the call to user_enter(). Indeed the call to
user_enter() used to be performed upon syscall exit slow path which was
right before the last opportunity to schedule() while resuming to
userspace. The context tracking state had to be saved on the task stack
and set back to CONTEXT_KERNEL temporarily in order to safely switch to
another task.
Only a few archs use it now (namely sparc64 and powerpc64) and those
implementing HAVE_CONTEXT_TRACKING_OFFSTACK definetly can't rely on it.

He also provided a simple reproducer creating the situation below:
So the execution order of locking steps are the following
(N1 and N2 are non-deadline tasks. D1 is a deadline task. M1 and M2
are mutexes that are enabled * with priority inheritance.)
Time moves forward as this timeline goes down:
N1 N2 D1

Lock(M1) | |
| | |
| Lock(M2) |
| | |
| | Lock(M2)

| Lock(M1) |
| (!!bug triggered!) |
Daniel reported a similar situation as well, by just letting ksoftirqd
run with DEADLINE (and eventually block on a mutex).
Problem is that boosted entities (Priority Inheritance) use static
DEADLINE parameters of the top priority waiter. However, there might be
cases where top waiter could be a non-DEADLINE entity that is currently
boosted by a DEADLINE entity from a different lock chain (i.e., nested
priority chains involving entities of non-DEADLINE classes). In this
case, top waiter static DEADLINE parameters could be null (initialized
to 0 at fork()) and replenish_dl_entity() would hit a BUG().
Fix this by keeping track of the original donor and using its parameters
when a task is boosted.

Only select_task_rq_fair() uses that parameter to do an actual domain
search, other classes only care about what kind of wakeup is happening
(fork, exec, or "regular") and thus just translate the flag into a wakeup

WF_TTWU and WF_EXEC have just been added, use these along with WF_FORK to

In order to minimize the interference of migrate_disable() on lower
priority tasks, which can be deprived of runtime due to being stuck
below a higher priority task. Teach the RT/DL balancers to push away
these higher priority tasks when a lower priority task gets selected
to run on a freshly demoted CPU (pull).
This adds migration interference to the higher priority task, but
restores bandwidth to system that would otherwise be irrevocably lost.
Without this it would be possible to have all tasks on the system
stuck on a single CPU, each task preempted in a migrate_disable()
section with a single high priority task running.
This way we can still approximate running the M highest priority tasks
on the system.
Migrating the top task away is (ofcourse) still subject to
migrate_disable() too, which means the lower task is subject to an
interference equivalent to the worst case migrate_disable() section.

Concurrent migrate_disable() and set_cpus_allowed_ptr() has
interesting features. We rely on set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to not return
until the task runs inside the provided mask. This expectation is
exported to userspace.
This means that any set_cpus_allowed_ptr() caller must wait until
migrate_enable() allows migrations.
At the same time, we don't want migrate_enable() to schedule, due to
patterns like:
preempt_disable();
migrate_disable();
...
migrate_enable();
preempt_enable();
And:
raw_spin_lock(&B);
spin_unlock(&A);
this means that when migrate_enable() must restore the affinity
mask, it cannot wait for completion thereof. Luck will have it that
that is exactly the case where there is a pending
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), so let that provide storage for the async stop
machine.
Much thanks to Valentin who used TLA+ most effective and found lots of
'interesting' cases.

Add the base migrate_disable() support (under protest).
While migrate_disable() is (currently) required for PREEMPT_RT, it is
also one of the biggest flaws in the system.
Notably this is just the base implementation, it is broken vs
sched_setaffinity() and hotplug, both solved in additional patches for

Since we now migrate tasks away before DYING, we should also move
bandwidth unthrottle, otherwise we can gain tasks from unthrottle
after we expect all tasks to be gone already.
Also; it looks like the RT balancers don't respect cpu_active() and
instead rely on rq->online in part, complete this. This too requires
we do set_rq_offline() earlier to match the cpu_active() semantics.
(The bigger patch is to convert RT to cpu_active() entirely)
Since set_rq_online() is called from sched_cpu_activate(), place
set_rq_offline() in sched_cpu_deactivate().

With the new mechanism which kicks tasks off the outgoing CPU at the end of
schedule() the situation on an outgoing CPU right before the stopper thread
brings it down completely is:
- All user tasks and all unbound kernel threads have either been migrated
away or are not running and the next wakeup will move them to a online CPU.
- All per CPU kernel threads, except cpu hotplug thread and the stopper
thread have either been unbound or parked by the responsible CPU hotplug
callback.
That means that at the last step before the stopper thread is invoked the
cpu hotplug thread is the last legitimate running task on the outgoing
CPU.
Add a final wait step right before the stopper thread is kicked which
ensures that any still running tasks on the way to park or on the way to
kick themself of the CPU are either sleeping or gone.
This allows to remove the migrate_tasks() crutch in sched_cpu_dying(). If
sched_cpu_dying() detects that there is still another running task aside of
the stopper thread then it will explode with the appropriate fireworks.

RT kernels need to ensure that all tasks which are not per CPU kthreads
have left the outgoing CPU to guarantee that no tasks are force migrated
within a migrate disabled section.
There is also some desire to (ab)use fine grained CPU hotplug control to
clear a CPU from active state to force migrate tasks which are not per CPU
kthreads away for power control purposes.
Add a mechanism which waits until all tasks which should leave the CPU
after the CPU active flag is cleared have moved to a different online CPU.

In preparation for migrate_disable(), make sure only per-cpu kthreads
are allowed to run on !active CPUs.
This is ran (as one of the very first steps) from the cpu-hotplug
task which is a per-cpu kthread and completion of the hotplug
operation only requires such tasks.
This constraint enables the migrate_disable() implementation to wait
for completion of all migrate_disable regions on this CPU at hotplug
time without fear of any new ones starting.
This replaces the unlikely(rq->balance_callbacks) test at the tail of
context_switch with an unlikely(rq->balance_work), the fast path is
not affected.

The intent of balance_callback() has always been to delay executing
balancing operations until the end of the current rq->lock section.
This is because balance operations must often drop rq->lock, and that
isn't safe in general.
However, as noted by Scott, there were a few holes in that scheme;
balance_callback() was called after rq->lock was dropped, which means
another CPU can interleave and touch the callback list.
Rework code to call the balance callbacks before dropping rq->lock
where possible, and otherwise splice the balance list onto a local
stack.
This guarantees that the balance list must be empty when we take
rq->lock. IOW, we'll only ever run our own balance callbacks.

765cc3a4b2 ("sched/core: Optimize sched_feat() for !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG builds")
made sched features static for !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG configurations, but
overlooked the CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y and !CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL cases.
For the latter echoing changes to /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features has
the nasty effect of effectively changing what sched_features reports,
but without actually changing the scheduler behaviour (since different
translation units get different sysctl_sched_features).
Fix CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y and !CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL configurations by properly
restructuring ifdefs.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path
- Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for
better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices.
(The default is to maximize performance & reduce RT latencies.)
- Improve utime and stime tracking accuracy, which had a fixed boundary
of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the
values become larger. This is now replaced with more precise
arithmetics, using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.
- Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware
- Improve frequency-invariant scheduling
- Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling
- Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running
- Documentation additions and updates
- Misc cleanups and smaller fixes

RT tasks by default run at the highest capacity/performance level. When
uclamp is selected this default behavior is retained by enforcing the
requested uclamp.min (p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) of the RT tasks to be
uclamp_none(UCLAMP_MAX), which is SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE; the maximum
value.
This is also referred to as 'the default boost value of RT tasks'.
See commit 1a00d99997 ("sched/uclamp: Set default clamps for RT tasks").
On battery powered devices, it is desired to control this default
(currently hardcoded) behavior at runtime to reduce energy consumed by
RT tasks.
For example, a mobile device manufacturer where big.LITTLE architecture
is dominant, the performance of the little cores varies across SoCs, and
on high end ones the big cores could be too power hungry.
Given the diversity of SoCs, the new knob allows manufactures to tune
the best performance/power for RT tasks for the particular hardware they
run on.
They could opt to further tune the value when the user selects
a different power saving mode or when the device is actively charging.
The runtime aspect of it further helps in creating a single kernel image
that can be run on multiple devices that require different tuning.
Keep in mind that a lot of RT tasks in the system are created by the
kernel. On Android for instance I can see over 50 RT tasks, only
a handful of which created by the Android framework.
To control the default behavior globally by system admins and device
integrator, introduce the new sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_min_rt_default
to change the default boost value of the RT tasks.
I anticipate this to be mostly in the form of modifying the init script
of a particular device.
To avoid polluting the fast path with unnecessary code, the approach
taken is to synchronously do the update by traversing all the existing
tasks in the system. This could race with a concurrent fork(), which is
dealt with by introducing sched_post_fork() function which will ensure
the racy fork will get the right update applied.
Tested on Juno-r2 in combination with the RT capacity awareness [1].
By default an RT task will go to the highest capacity CPU and run at the
maximum frequency, which is particularly energy inefficient on high end
mobile devices because the biggest core[s] are 'huge' and power hungry.
With this patch the RT task can be controlled to run anywhere by
default, and doesn't cause the frequency to be maximum all the time.
Yet any task that really needs to be boosted can easily escape this
default behavior by modifying its requested uclamp.min value
(p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) via sched_setattr() syscall.

try_to_wake_up(), warn if those flags collide with internal values.
Given that the supplied flags are garbage, no repair can be done but at
least alert the user to the damage they are causing.
In the belief that these errors should be picked up during testing, the

The following commit:
14533a16c4 ("thermal/cpu-cooling, sched/core: Move the arch_set_thermal_pressure() API to generic scheduler code")
moved the definition of arch_set_thermal_pressure() to sched/core.c, but
kept its declaration in linux/arch_topology.h. When building e.g. an x86
kernel with CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=y, cpufreq_cooling.c ends up
getting the declaration of arch_set_thermal_pressure() from
include/linux/arch_topology.h, which is somewhat awkward.
On top of this, sched/core.c unconditionally defines
o The thermal_pressure percpu variable
o arch_set_thermal_pressure()
while arch_scale_thermal_pressure() does nothing unless redefined by the
architecture.
arch_*() functions are meant to be defined by architectures, so revert the
aforementioned commit and re-implement it in a way that keeps
arch_set_thermal_pressure() architecture-definable, and doesn't define the
thermal pressure percpu variable for kernels that don't need
it (CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=n).

There is apparently one site that violates the rule that only current
and ttwu() will modify task->state, namely ptrace_{,un}freeze_traced()
will change task->state for a remote task.
Oleg explains:
"TASK_TRACED/TASK_STOPPED was always protected by siglock. In
particular, ttwu(__TASK_TRACED) must be always called with siglock
held. That is why ptrace_freeze_traced() assumes it can safely do
s/TASK_TRACED/__TASK_TRACED/ under spin_lock(siglock)."
This breaks the ordering scheme introduced by commit:
dbfb089d36 ("sched: Fix loadavg accounting race")
Specifically, the reload not matching no longer implies we don't have
to block.
Simply things by noting that what we need is a LOAD->STORE ordering
and this can be provided by a control dependency.
So replace:
prev_state = prev->state;
raw_spin_lock(&rq->lock);
smp_mb__after_spinlock(); /* SMP-MB */
if (... && prev_state && prev_state == prev->state)
deactivate_task();
with:
prev_state = prev->state;
if (... && prev_state) /* CTRL-DEP */
deactivate_task();
Since that already implies the 'prev->state' load must be complete
before allowing the 'prev->on_rq = 0' store to become visible.

Add a bare tracepoint trace_sched_update_nr_running_tp which tracks
->nr_running CPU's rq. This is used to accurately trace this data and
provide a visualization of scheduler imbalances in, for example, the
form of a heat map. The tracepoint is accessed by loading an external
kernel module. An example module (forked from Qais' module and including
the pelt related tracepoints) can be found at:
https://github.com/auldp/tracepoints-helpers.git
A script to turn the trace-cmd report output into a heatmap plot can be
found at:
https://github.com/jirvoz/plot-nr-running
The tracepoints are added to add_nr_running() and sub_nr_running() which
are in kernel/sched/sched.h. In order to avoid CREATE_TRACE_POINTS in
the header a wrapper call is used and the trace/events/sched.h include
is moved before sched.h in kernel/sched/core.

There is a report that when uclamp is enabled, a netperf UDP test

code is doing anything particularly expensive but could suffer from bad

To reduce the pressure on the fast path anyway, add a static key that is
by default will skip executing uclamp logic in the
enqueue/dequeue_task() fast path until it's needed.
As soon as the user start using util clamp by:
1. Changing uclamp value of a task with sched_setattr()
2. Modifying the default sysctl_sched_util_clamp_{min, max}
3. Modifying the default cpu.uclamp.{min, max} value in cgroup
We flip the static key now that the user has opted to use util clamp.
Effectively re-introducing uclamp logic in the enqueue/dequeue_task()
fast path. It stays on from that point forward until the next reboot.
This should help minimize the effect of util clamp on workloads that
don't need it but still allow distros to ship their kernels with uclamp
compiled in by default.
SCHED_WARN_ON() in uclamp_rq_dec_id() was removed since now we can end
up with unbalanced call to uclamp_rq_dec_id() if we flip the key while
a task is running in the rq. Since we know it is harmless we just
quietly return if we attempt a uclamp_rq_dec_id() when
rq->uclamp[].bucket[].tasks is 0.
In schedutil, we introduce a new uclamp_is_enabled() helper which takes
the static key into account to ensure RT boosting behavior is retained.
The following results demonstrates how this helps on 2 Sockets Xeon E5
2x10-Cores system.

struct uclamp_rq was zeroed out entirely in assumption that in the first
call to uclamp_rq_inc() they'd be initialized correctly in accordance to
default settings.
But when next patch introduces a static key to skip
uclamp_rq_{inc,dec}() until userspace opts in to use uclamp, schedutil
will fail to perform any frequency changes because the
rq->uclamp[UCLAMP_MAX].value is zeroed at init and stays as such. Which
means all rqs are capped to 0 by default.
Fix it by making sure we do proper initialization at init without
relying on uclamp_rq_inc() doing it later.

While integrating rseq into glibc and replacing glibc's sched_getcpu
implementation with rseq, glibc's tests discovered an issue with
incorrect __rseq_abi.cpu_id field value right after the first time
a newly created process issues sched_setaffinity.
For the records, it triggers after building glibc and running tests, and
then issuing:
for x in {1..2000} ; do posix/tst-affinity-static & done
and shows up as:
error: Unexpected CPU 2, expected 0
error: Unexpected CPU 2, expected 0
error: Unexpected CPU 2, expected 0
error: Unexpected CPU 2, expected 0
error: Unexpected CPU 138, expected 0
error: Unexpected CPU 138, expected 0
error: Unexpected CPU 138, expected 0
error: Unexpected CPU 138, expected 0
This is caused by the scheduler invoking __set_task_cpu() directly from
sched_fork() and wake_up_new_task(), thus bypassing rseq_migrate() which
is done by set_task_cpu().
Add the missing rseq_migrate() to both functions. The only other direct
use of __set_task_cpu() is done by init_idle(), which does not involve a
user-space task.
Based on my testing with the glibc test-case, just adding rseq_migrate()
to wake_up_new_task() is sufficient to fix the observed issue. Also add
it to sched_fork() to keep things consistent.
The reason why this never triggered so far with the rseq/basic_test
selftest is unclear.
The current use of sched_getcpu(3) does not typically require it to be
always accurate. However, use of the __rseq_abi.cpu_id field within rseq
critical sections requires it to be accurate. If it is not accurate, it
can cause corruption in the per-cpu data targeted by rseq critical
sections in user-space.

The recent commit:
c6e7bd7afa ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
moved these lines in ttwu():
p->sched_contributes_to_load = !!task_contributes_to_load(p);
p->state = TASK_WAKING;
up before:
smp_cond_load_acquire(&p->on_cpu, !VAL);
into the 'p->on_rq == 0' block, with the thinking that once we hit
schedule() the current task cannot change it's ->state anymore. And
while this is true, it is both incorrect and flawed.
It is incorrect in that we need at least an ACQUIRE on 'p->on_rq == 0'
to avoid weak hardware from re-ordering things for us. This can fairly
easily be achieved by relying on the control-dependency already in
place.
The second problem, which makes the flaw in the original argument, is
that while schedule() will not change prev->state, it will read it a
number of times (arguably too many times since it's marked volatile).
The previous condition 'p->on_cpu == 0' was sufficient because that
indicates schedule() has completed, and will no longer read
prev->state. So now the trick is to make this same true for the (much)
earlier 'prev->on_rq == 0' case.
Furthermore, in order to make the ordering stick, the 'prev->on_rq = 0'
assignment needs to he a RELEASE, but adding additional ordering to
schedule() is an unwelcome proposition at the best of times, doubly so
for mere accounting.
Luckily we can push the prev->state load up before rq->lock, with the
only caveat that we then have to re-read the state after. However, we
know that if it changed, we no longer have to worry about the blocking
path. This gives us the required ordering, if we block, we did the
prev->state load before an (effective) smp_mb() and the p->on_rq store
needs not change.
With this we end up with the effective ordering:
LOAD p->state LOAD-ACQUIRE p->on_rq == 0
MB
STORE p->on_rq, 0 STORE p->state, TASK_WAKING
which ensures the TASK_WAKING store happens after the prev->state
load, and all is well again.

Paul reported rcutorture occasionally hitting a NULL deref:
sched_ttwu_pending()
ttwu_do_wakeup()
check_preempt_curr() := check_preempt_wakeup()
find_matching_se()
is_same_group()
if (se->cfs_rq == pse->cfs_rq) <-- *BOOM*
Debugging showed that this only appears to happen when we take the new
code-path from commit:
2ebb177175 ("sched/core: Offload wakee task activation if it the wakee is descheduling")
and only when @cpu == smp_processor_id(). Something which should not
be possible, because p->on_cpu can only be true for remote tasks.
Similarly, without the new code-path from commit:
c6e7bd7afa ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
this would've unconditionally hit:
smp_cond_load_acquire(&p->on_cpu, !VAL);
and if: 'cpu == smp_processor_id() && p->on_cpu' is possible, this
would result in an instant live-lock (with IRQs disabled), something
that hasn't been reported.
The NULL deref can be explained however if the task_cpu(p) load at the
beginning of try_to_wake_up() returns an old value, and this old value
happens to be smp_processor_id(). Further assume that the p->on_cpu
load accurately returns 1, it really is still running, just not here.
Then, when we enqueue the task locally, we can crash in exactly the
observed manner because p->se.cfs_rq != rq->cfs_rq, because p's cfs_rq
is from the wrong CPU, therefore we'll iterate into the non-existant
parents and NULL deref.
The closest semi-plausible scenario I've managed to contrive is
somewhat elaborate (then again, actual reproduction takes many CPU
hours of rcutorture, so it can't be anything obvious):
X->cpu = 1
rq(1)->curr = X
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
// switch away from X
LOCK rq(1)->lock
smp_mb__after_spinlock
dequeue_task(X)
X->on_rq = 9
switch_to(Z)
X->on_cpu = 0
UNLOCK rq(1)->lock
// migrate X to cpu 0
LOCK rq(1)->lock
dequeue_task(X)
set_task_cpu(X, 0)
X->cpu = 0
UNLOCK rq(1)->lock
LOCK rq(0)->lock
enqueue_task(X)
X->on_rq = 1
UNLOCK rq(0)->lock
// switch to X
LOCK rq(0)->lock
smp_mb__after_spinlock
switch_to(X)
X->on_cpu = 1
UNLOCK rq(0)->lock
// X goes sleep
X->state = TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
smp_mb(); // wake X
ttwu()
LOCK X->pi_lock
smp_mb__after_spinlock
if (p->state)
cpu = X->cpu; // =? 1
smp_rmb()
// X calls schedule()
LOCK rq(0)->lock
smp_mb__after_spinlock
dequeue_task(X)
X->on_rq = 0
if (p->on_rq)
smp_rmb();
if (p->on_cpu && ttwu_queue_wakelist(..)) [*]
smp_cond_load_acquire(&p->on_cpu, !VAL)
cpu = select_task_rq(X, X->wake_cpu, ...)
if (X->cpu != cpu)
switch_to(Y)
X->on_cpu = 0
UNLOCK rq(0)->lock
However I'm having trouble convincing myself that's actually possible
on x86_64 -- after all, every LOCK implies an smp_mb() there, so if ttwu
observes ->state != RUNNING, it must also observe ->cpu != 1.
(Most of the previous ttwu() races were found on very large PowerPC)
Nevertheless, this fully explains the observed failure case.
Fix it by ordering the task_cpu(p) load after the p->on_cpu load,
which is easy since nothing actually uses @cpu before this.

At deadline.c:628 we have:
623 static inline void setup_new_dl_entity(struct sched_dl_entity *dl_se)
624 {
625 struct dl_rq *dl_rq = dl_rq_of_se(dl_se);
626 struct rq *rq = rq_of_dl_rq(dl_rq);
627
628 WARN_ON(dl_se->dl_boosted);
629 WARN_ON(dl_time_before(rq_clock(rq), dl_se->deadline));
[...]
}
Which means that setup_new_dl_entity() has been called on a task
currently boosted. This shouldn't happen though, as setup_new_dl_entity()
is only called when the 'dynamic' deadline of the new entity
is in the past w.r.t. rq_clock and boosted tasks shouldn't verify this
condition.
Digging through the PI code I noticed that what above might in fact happen
if an RT tasks blocks on an rt_mutex hold by a DEADLINE task. In the
first branch of boosting conditions we check only if a pi_task 'dynamic'
deadline is earlier than mutex holder's and in this case we set mutex
holder to be dl_boosted. However, since RT 'dynamic' deadlines are only
initialized if such tasks get boosted at some point (or if they become
DEADLINE of course), in general RT 'dynamic' deadlines are usually equal
to 0 and this verifies the aforementioned condition.
Fix it by checking that the potential donor task is actually (even if
temporary because in turn boosted) running at DEADLINE priority before
using its 'dynamic' deadline value.
Fixes: 2d3d891d33 ("sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE inheritance logic")

This function is concerned with the long-term CPU mask, not the
transitory mask the task might have while migrate disabled. Before
this patch, if a task was migrate-disabled at the time
__set_cpus_allowed_ptr() was called, and the new mask happened to be
equal to the CPU that the task was running on, then the mask update
would be lost.

This introduces an optimization based on xxx_sched_class addresses
in two hot scheduler functions: pick_next_task() and check_preempt_curr().
It is possible to compare pointers to sched classes to check, which
of them has a higher priority, instead of current iterations using
for_each_class().
One more result of the patch is that size of object file becomes a little
less (excluding added BUG_ON(), which goes in __init section):

Now that the sched_class descriptors are defined by the linker script, and
this needs to be aware of the existance of stop_sched_class when SMP is
enabled or not, as it is used as the "highest" priority when defined. Move
the declaration of sched_class_highest to the same location in the linker
script that inserts stop_sched_class, and this will also make it easier to
see what should be defined as the highest class, as this linker script
location defines the priorities as well.

Now that nothing (modular) still uses sched_setscheduler(), remove the

SCHED_FIFO (or any static priority scheduler) is a broken scheduler
model; it is fundamentally incapable of resource management, the one
thing an OS is actually supposed to do.
It is impossible to compose static priority workloads. One cannot take
two well designed and functional static priority workloads and mash
them together and still expect them to work.
Therefore it doesn't make sense to expose the priority field; the
kernel is fundamentally incapable of setting a sensible value, it
needs systems knowledge that it doesn't have.
Take away sched_setschedule() / sched_setattr() from modules and
replace them with:
- sched_set_fifo(p); create a FIFO task (at prio 50)
- sched_set_fifo_low(p); create a task higher than NORMAL,
which ends up being a FIFO task at prio 1.
- sched_set_normal(p, nice); (re)set the task to normal
This stops the proliferation of randomly chosen, and irrelevant, FIFO
priorities that dont't really mean anything anyway.
The system administrator/integrator, whoever has insight into the
actual system design and requirements (userspace) can set-up
appropriate priorities if and when needed.

Patch series "Add log level to show_stack()", v3.
Add log level argument to show_stack().
Done in three stages:
1. Introducing show_stack_loglvl() for every architecture
2. Migrating old users with an explicit log level
3. Renaming show_stack_loglvl() into show_stack()
Justification:
- It's a design mistake to move a business-logic decision into platform
realization detail.
- I have currently two patches sets that would benefit from this work:
Removing console_loglevel jumps in sysrq driver [1] Hung task warning
before panic [2] - suggested by Tetsuo (but he probably didn't realise
what it would involve).
- While doing (1), (2) the backtraces were adjusted to headers and other
messages for each situation - so there won't be a situation when the
backtrace is printed, but the headers are missing because they have
lesser log level (or the reverse).
- As the result in (2) plays with console_loglevel for kdb are removed.
The least important for upstream, but maybe still worth to note that every
company I've worked in so far had an off-list patch to print backtrace
with the needed log level (but only for the architecture they cared
about). If you have other ideas how you will benefit from show_stack()
with a log level - please, reply to this cover letter.
See also discussion on v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20191106083538.z5nlpuf64cigxigh@pathway.suse.cz/
This patch (of 50):
print_ip_sym() needs to have a log level parameter to comply with other
parts being printed. Otherwise, half of the expected backtrace would be
printed and other may be missing with some logging level.
The following callee(s) are using now the adjusted log level:
- microblaze/unwind: the same level as headers & userspace unwind.
Note that pr_debug()'s there are for debugging the unwinder itself.
- nds32/traps: symbol addresses are printed with the same log level
as backtrace headers.
- lockdep: ip for locking issues is printed with the same log level
as other part of the warning.
- sched: ip where preemption was disabled is printed as error like
the rest part of the message.
- ftrace: bug reports are now consistent in the log level being used.

- Branch Target Identification (BTI)
* Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This
allows branch targets to limit the types of branch from which
they can be called and additionally prevents branching to
arbitrary code, although kernel support requires a very recent
toolchain.
* Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly
functions are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad"
instructions.
* BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.
* Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to
userspace via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader
support for the BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.
* Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
trampoline.
- Shadow Call Stack (SCS)
* Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each
task that holds only return addresses. This protects function
return control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.
* Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).
* Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
too.
* SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.
- CPU feature detection
* Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a
concern for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on
such a system.
* Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
been extended.
- Perf and PMU drivers
* Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.
- Hardware errata
* Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.
* Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.
- Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC)
* Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).
* Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.
- Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)
* Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.
* Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.
- Pointer authentication
* Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so
that the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.
* Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.
- BPF backend
* Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub
instructions.
- vDSO
- Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.
- Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.
- ACPI
- Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating
to the "num_ids" field.
- Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only
PCIe root complexes.
- Minor other IORT-related fixes.
- Miscellaneous
* Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing

Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.
Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target
Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently
arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could
easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support
Branch Target Identification (BTI):
- Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows
branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be
called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code,
although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain.
- Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions
are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions.
- BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.
- Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace
via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the
BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.
- Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
trampoline.
Shadow Call Stack (SCS):
- Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task
that holds only return addresses. This protects function return
control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.
- Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).
- Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
too.
- SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.
CPU feature detection:
- Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.
- Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
been extended.
Perf and PMU drivers:
- Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.
Hardware errata:
- Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.
- Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.
Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC):
- Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).
- Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.
Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI):
- Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.
- Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.
Pointer authentication:
- Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.
- Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.
BPF backend:
- Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.
vDSO:
- Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.
- Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.
ACPI:
- Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
the "num_ids" field.
- Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
root complexes.
- Minor other IORT-related fixes.
Miscellaneous:
- Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
deadlock.
- Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).
- Refactoring and cleanup"

The recent commit: 90b5363acd ("sched: Clean up scheduler_ipi()")
got smp_call_function_single_async() subtly wrong. Even though it will
return -EBUSY when trying to re-use a csd, that condition is not
atomic and still requires external serialization.
The change in ttwu_queue_remote() got this wrong.
While on first reading ttwu_queue_remote() has an atomic test-and-set
that appears to serialize the use, the matching 'release' is not in
the right place to actually guarantee this serialization.
The actual race is vs the sched_ttwu_pending() call in the idle loop;
that can run the wakeup-list without consuming the CSD.

We are going to rely on the loosening of RCU callback semantics,
introduced by this commit:
806f04e9fd: ("rcu: Allow for smp_call_function() running callbacks from idle")
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
The previous commit:
c6e7bd7afa: ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
avoids spinning on p->on_rq when the task is descheduling, but only if the
wakee is on a CPU that does not share cache with the waker.
This patch offloads the activation of the wakee to the CPU that is about to
go idle if the task is the only one on the runqueue. This potentially allows
the waker task to continue making progress when the wakeup is not strictly
synchronous.
This is very obvious with netperf UDP_STREAM running on localhost. The
waker is sending packets as quickly as possible without waiting for any
reply. It frequently wakes the server for the processing of packets and
when netserver is using local memory, it quickly completes the processing
and goes back to idle. The waker often observes that netserver is on_rq
and spins excessively leading to a drop in throughput.
This is a comparison of 5.7-rc6 against "sched: Optimize ttwu() spinning
on p->on_cpu" and against this patch labeled vanilla, optttwu-v1r1 and
localwakelist-v1r2 respectively.
5.7.0-rc6 5.7.0-rc6 5.7.0-rc6

Note that this benefit is not universal to all wakeups, it only applies
to the case where the waker often spins on p->on_rq.
The impact can be seen from a "perf sched latency" report generated from
a single iteration of one packet size:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Task | Runtime ms | Switches | Average delay ms | Maximum delay ms | Maximum delay at |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
vanilla
netperf:4337 | 21709.193 ms | 2932 | avg: 0.002 ms | max: 0.041 ms | max at: 112.154512 s
netserver:4338 | 14629.459 ms | 5146990 | avg: 0.001 ms | max: 1615.864 ms | max at: 140.134496 s
localwakelist-v1r2
netperf:4339 | 29789.717 ms | 2460 | avg: 0.002 ms | max: 0.059 ms | max at: 138.205389 s
netserver:4340 | 18858.767 ms | 7279005 | avg: 0.001 ms | max: 0.362 ms | max at: 135.709683 s
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that the average wakeup delay is quite small on both the vanilla
kernel and with the two patches applied. However, there are significant
outliers with the vanilla kernel with the maximum one measured as 1615
milliseconds with a vanilla kernel but never worse than 0.362 ms with
both patches applied and a much higher rate of context switching.
Similarly a separate profile of cycles showed that 2.83% of all cycles
were spent in try_to_wake_up() with almost half of the cycles spent
on spinning on p->on_rq. With the two patches, the percentage of cycles
spent in try_to_wake_up() drops to 1.13%

Both Rik and Mel reported seeing ttwu() spend significant time on:
smp_cond_load_acquire(&p->on_cpu, !VAL);
Attempt to avoid this by queueing the wakeup on the CPU that owns the
p->on_cpu value. This will then allow the ttwu() to complete without
further waiting.
Since we run schedule() with interrupts disabled, the IPI is
guaranteed to happen after p->on_cpu is cleared, this is what makes it
safe to queue early.

When users write some huge number into cpu.cfs_quota_us or
cpu.rt_runtime_us, overflow might happen during to_ratio() shifts of
schedulable checks.
to_ratio() could be altered to avoid unnecessary internal overflow, but
min_cfs_quota_period is less than 1 << BW_SHIFT, so a cutoff would still
be needed. Set a cap MAX_BW for cfs_quota_us and rt_runtime_us to
prevent overflow.

There is nothing architecture-specific about scs_overflow_check() as
it's just a trivial wrapper around scs_corrupted().
For parity with task_stack_end_corrupted(), rename scs_corrupted() to
task_scs_end_corrupted() and call it from schedule_debug() when
CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK_is enabled, which better reflects its
purpose as a debug feature to catch inadvertent overflow of the SCS.
Finally, remove the unused scs_overflow_check() function entirely.
This has absolutely no impact on architectures that do not support SCS
(currently arm64 only).

This change adds generic support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack,
which uses a shadow stack to protect return addresses from being
overwritten by an attacker. Details are available here:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ShadowCallStack.html
Note that security guarantees in the kernel differ from the ones
documented for user space. The kernel must store addresses of
shadow stacks in memory, which means an attacker capable reading
and writing arbitrary memory may be able to locate them and hijack
control flow by modifying the stacks.

The scheduler IPI has grown weird and wonderful over the years, time
for spring cleaning.
Move all the non-trivial stuff out of it and into a regular smp function
call IPI. This then reduces the schedule_ipi() to most of it's former NOP
glory and ensures to keep the interrupt vector lean and mean.
Aside of that avoiding the full irq_enter() in the x86 IPI implementation
is incorrect as scheduler_ipi() can be instrumented. To work around that
scheduler_ipi() had an irq_enter/exit() hack when heavy work was
pending. This is gone now.

In the CPU-offline process, it calls mmdrop() after idle entry and the
subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead(). Once execution passes the
call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring the CPU, which results in
lockdep complaining when mmdrop() uses RCU from either memcg or
debugobjects below.
Fix it by cleaning up the active_mm state from BP instead. Every arch
which has CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU should have already called idle_task_exit()
from AP. The only exception is parisc because it switches them to
&init_mm unconditionally (see smp_boot_one_cpu() and smp_cpu_init()),
but the patch will still work there because it calls mmgrab(&init_mm) in
smp_cpu_init() and then should call mmdrop(&init_mm) in finish_cpu().

A running task's state can be sampled in a consistent manner (for example,
for diagnostic purposes) simply by invoking smp_call_function_single()
on its CPU, which may be obtained using task_cpu(), then having the
IPI handler verify that the desired task is in fact still running.
However, if the task is not running, this sampling can in theory be done
immediately and directly. In practice, the task might start running at
any time, including during the sampling period. Gaining a consistent
sample of a not-running task therefore requires that something be done
to lock down the target task's state.
This commit therefore adds a try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function
that invokes a specified function if the specified task can be locked
down, returning true if successful and if the specified function returns
true. Otherwise this function simply returns false. Given that the
function passed to try_invoke_on_nonrunning_task() might be invoked with
a runqueue lock held, that function had better be quite lightweight.
The function is passed the target task's task_struct pointer and the
argument passed to try_invoke_on_locked_down_task(), allowing easy access
to task state and to a location for further variables to be passed in
and out.
Note that the specified function will be called even if the specified
task is currently running. The function can use ->on_rq and task_curr()
to quickly and easily determine the task's state, and can return false
if this state is not to the function's liking. The caller of the
try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() would then see the false return value,
and could take appropriate action, for example, trying again later or
sending an IPI if matters are more urgent.
It is expected that use cases such as the RCU CPU stall warning code will
simply return false if the task is currently running. However, there are
use cases involving nohz_full CPUs where the specified function might
instead fall back to an alternative sampling scheme that relies on heavier
synchronization (such as memory barriers) in the target task.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and

always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.
As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers

uclamp_fork() resets the uclamp values to their default when the
reset-on-fork flag is set. It also checks whether the task has a RT
policy, and sets its uclamp.min to 1024 accordingly. However, during
reset-on-fork, the task's policy is lowered to SCHED_NORMAL right after,
hence leading to an erroneous uclamp.min setting for the new task if it
was forked from RT.
Fix this by removing the unnecessary check on rt_task() in
uclamp_fork() as this doesn't make sense if the reset-on-fork flag is
set.

The kernel test robot triggered a warning with the following race:

worker

-> ->sleeping = 0;
-> sched_update_worker()
-> wq_worker_running()
if (!->sleeping) return
In this context the warning is pointless everything is fine.
An interrupt before wq_worker_sleeping() will perform the ->sleeping
assignment (0 -> 1 > 0) twice.
An interrupt after wq_worker_sleeping() will trigger the warning and
nr_running will be decremented (by A) and incremented once (only by B, A
will skip it). This is the case until the ->sleeping is zeroed again in
wq_worker_running().
Remove the WARN statement because this condition may happen. Document
that preemption around wq_worker_sleeping() needs to be disabled to
protect ->sleeping and not just as an optimisation.

sched/core.c uses update_avg() for rq->avg_idle and sched/fair.c uses an
open-coded version (with the exact same decay factor) for
rq->avg_scan_cost. On top of that, select_idle_cpu() expects to be able to
compare these two fields.
The only difference between the two is that rq->avg_scan_cost is computed
using a pure division rather than a shift. Turns out it actually matters,
first of all because the shifted value can be negative, and the standard
has this to say about it:
"""
The result of E1 >> E2 is E1 right-shifted E2 bit positions. [...] If E1
has a signed type and a negative value, the resulting value is
implementation-defined.
"""
Not only this, but (arithmetic) right shifting a negative value (using 2's
complement) is *not* equivalent to dividing it by the corresponding power
of 2. Let's look at a few examples:
-4 -> 0xF..FC
-4 >> 3 -> 0xF..FF == -1 != -4 / 8
-8 -> 0xF..F8
-8 >> 3 -> 0xF..FF == -1 == -8 / 8
-9 -> 0xF..F7
-9 >> 3 -> 0xF..FE == -2 != -9 / 8
Make update_avg() use a division, and export it to the private scheduler
header to reuse it where relevant. Note that this still lets compilers use
a shift here, but should prevent any unwanted surprise. The disassembly of
select_idle_cpu() remains unchanged on arm64, and ttwu_do_wakeup() gains 2
instructions; the diff sort of looks like this:
- sub x1, x1, x0
+ subs x1, x1, x0 // set condition codes
+ add x0, x1, #0x7
+ csel x0, x0, x1, mi // x0 = x1 < 0 ? x0 : x1
add x0, x3, x0, asr #3
which does the right thing (i.e. gives us the expected result while still
using an arithmetic shift)

For simplicity, cpu pressure is defined as having more than one
runnable task on a given CPU. This works on the system-level, but it
has limitations in a cgrouped reality: When cpu.max is in use, it
doesn't capture the time in which a task is not executing on the CPU
due to throttling. Likewise, it doesn't capture the time in which a
competing cgroup is occupying the CPU - meaning it only reflects
cgroup-internal competitive pressure, not outside pressure.
Enable tracking of currently executing tasks, and then change the
definition of cpu pressure in a cgroup from
NR_RUNNING > 1
to
NR_RUNNING > ON_CPU
which will capture the effects of cpu.max as well as competition from
outside the cgroup.
After this patch, a cgroup running `stress -c 1` with a cpu.max
setting of 5000 10000 shows ~50% continuous CPU pressure.

Currently, when updating the affinity of tasks via either cpusets.cpus,
or, sched_setaffinity(); tasks not currently running within the newly
specified mask will be arbitrarily assigned to the first CPU within the
mask.
This (particularly in the case that we are restricting masks) can
result in many tasks being assigned to the first CPUs of their new
masks.
This:
1) Can induce scheduling delays while the load-balancer has a chance to
spread them between their new CPUs.
2) Can antogonize a poor load-balancer behavior where it has a
difficult time recognizing that a cross-socket imbalance has been
forced by an affinity mask.
This change adds a new cpumask interface to allow iterated calls to
distribute within the intersection of the provided masks.
The cases that this mainly affects are:
- modifying cpuset.cpus
- when tasks join a cpuset
- when modifying a task's affinity via sched_setaffinity(2)

Thermal pressure follows pelt signals which means the decay period for
thermal pressure is the default pelt decay period. Depending on SoC
characteristics and thermal activity, it might be beneficial to decay
thermal pressure slower, but still in-tune with the pelt signals. One way
to achieve this is to provide a command line parameter to set a decay
shift parameter to an integer between 0 and 10.

The following XFS commit:
8ab39f11d9 ("xfs: prevent CIL push holdoff in log recovery")
changed the logic from using bound workqueues to using unbound
workqueues. Functionally this makes sense but it was observed at the
time that the dbench performance dropped quite a lot and CPU migrations
were increased.
The current pattern of the task migration is straight-forward. With XFS,
an IO issuer delegates work to xlog_cil_push_work ()on an unbound kworker.
This runs on a nearby CPU and on completion, dbench wakes up on its old CPU
as it is still idle and no migration occurs. dbench then queues the real
IO on the blk_mq_requeue_work() work item which runs on a bound kworker
which is forced to run on the same CPU as dbench. When IO completes,
the bound kworker wakes dbench but as the kworker is a bound but,
real task, the CPU is not considered idle and dbench gets migrated by
select_idle_sibling() to a new CPU. dbench may ping-pong between two CPUs
for a while but ultimately it starts a round-robin of all CPUs sharing
the same LLC. High-frequency migration on each IO completion has poor
performance overall. It has negative implications both in commication
costs and power management. mpstat confirmed that at low thread counts
that all CPUs sharing an LLC has low level of activity.
Note that even if the CIL patch was reverted, there still would
be migrations but the impact is less noticeable. It turns out that
individually the scheduler, XFS, blk-mq and workqueues all made sensible
decisions but in combination, the overall effect was sub-optimal.
This patch special cases the IO issue/completion pattern and allows
a bound kworker waker and a task wakee to stack on the same CPU if
there is a strong chance they are directly related. The expectation
is that the kworker is likely going back to sleep shortly. This is not
guaranteed as the IO could be queued asynchronously but there is a very
strong relationship between the task and kworker in this case that would
justify stacking on the same CPU instead of migrating. There should be
few concerns about kworker starvation given that the special casing is
only when the kworker is the waker.

Dbench has been modified to report the time to complete a single "load

metric as the benchmark makes many different system calls that are not
throughput-related
Patch shows a 9.23% and 48.53% reduction in the time to process a load
file with the difference partially explained by the number of CPUs sharing
a LLC. In a separate run, task migrations were almost eliminated by the
patch for low client counts. In case people have issue with the metric

Implement arch_scale_freq_capacity() for 'modern' x86. This function
is used by the scheduler to correctly account usage in the face of
DVFS.
The present patch addresses Intel processors specifically and has positive
performance and performance-per-watt implications for the schedutil cpufreq
governor, bringing it closer to, if not on-par with, the powersave governor
from the intel_pstate driver/framework.
Large performance gains are obtained when the machine is lightly loaded and
no regression are observed at saturation. The benchmarks with the largest
gains are kernel compilation, tbench (the networking version of dbench) and
shell-intensive workloads.

2. PECULIARITIES OF X86

3. EFFECTS ON THE SCHEDUTIL FREQUENCY GOVERNOR

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 1. FREQUENCY INVARIANCE: MOTIVATION
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
For example; suppose a CPU has two frequencies: 500 and 1000 Mhz. When
running a task that would consume 1/3rd of a CPU at 1000 MHz, it would
appear to consume 2/3rd (or 66.6%) when running at 500 MHz, giving the
false impression this CPU is almost at capacity, even though it can go
faster [*]. In a nutshell, without frequency scale-invariance tasks look
larger just because the CPU is running slower.
[*] (footnote: this assumes a linear frequency/performance relation; which
everybody knows to be false, but given realities its the best approximation
we can make.)
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 2. PECULIARITIES OF X86
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Accounting for frequency changes in PELT signals requires the computation of
the ratio freq_curr / freq_max. On x86 neither of those terms is readily
available.
2.1 CURRENT FREQUENCY
====================
Since modern x86 has hardware control over the actual frequency we run
at (because amongst other things, Turbo-Mode), we cannot simply use
the frequency as requested through cpufreq.
Instead we use the APERF/MPERF MSRs to compute the effective frequency
over the recent past. Also, because reading MSRs is expensive, don't
do so every time we need the value, but amortize the cost by doing it
every tick.
2.2 MAX FREQUENCY
=================
Obtaining freq_max is also non-trivial because at any time the hardware can
provide a frequency boost to a selected subset of cores if the package has
enough power to spare (eg: Turbo Boost). This means that the maximum frequency
available to a given core changes with time.
The approach taken in this change is to arbitrarily set freq_max to a constant
value at boot. The value chosen is the "4-cores (4C) turbo frequency" on most
microarchitectures, after evaluating the following candidates:
* 1-core (1C) turbo frequency (the fastest turbo state available)
* around base frequency (a.k.a. max P-state)
* something in between, such as 4C turbo
To interpret these options, consider that this is the denominator in
freq_curr/freq_max, and that ratio will be used to scale PELT signals such as
util_avg and load_avg. A large denominator will undershoot (util_avg looks a
bit smaller than it really is), viceversa with a smaller denominator PELT
signals will tend to overshoot. Given that PELT drives frequency selection
in the schedutil governor, we will have:
freq_max set to | effect on DVFS
--------------------+------------------
1C turbo | power efficiency (lower freq choices)
base freq | performance (higher util_avg, higher freq requests)
4C turbo | a bit of both
4C turbo proves to be a good compromise in a number of benchmarks (see below).
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 3. EFFECTS ON THE SCHEDUTIL FREQUENCY GOVERNOR
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Once an architecture implements a frequency scale-invariant utilization (the
PELT signal util_avg), schedutil switches its frequency selection formula from
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_curr * util [non-invariant util signal]
to
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * util [invariant util signal]
where, in the second formula, freq_max is set to the 1C turbo frequency (max
turbo). The advantage of the second formula, whose usage we unlock with this
patch, is that freq_next doesn't depend on the current frequency in an
iterative fashion, but can jump to any frequency in a single update. This
absence of feedback in the formula makes it quicker to react to utilization
changes and more robust against pathological instabilities.
Compare it to the update formula of intel_pstate/powersave:
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * Busy%
where again freq_max is 1C turbo and Busy% is the percentage of time not spent
idling (calculated with delta_MPERF / delta_TSC); essentially the same as
invariant schedutil, and largely responsible for intel_pstate/powersave good
reputation. The non-invariant schedutil formula is derived from the invariant
one by approximating util_inv with util_raw * freq_curr / freq_max, but this
has limitations.
Testing shows improved performances due to better frequency selections when
the machine is lightly loaded, and essentially no change in behaviour at
saturation / overutilization.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 4. KNOWN LIMITATIONS
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
It's been shown that it is possible to create pathological scenarios where a
CPU-bound task cannot reach max utilization, if the normalizing factor
freq_max is fixed to a constant value (see [Lelli-2018]).
If freq_max is set to 4C turbo as we do here, one needs to peg at least 5
cores in a package doing some busywork, and observe that none of those task
will ever reach max util (1024) because they're all running at less than the
4C turbo frequency.
While this concern still applies, we believe the performance benefit of
frequency scale-invariant PELT signals outweights the cost of this limitation.

5.2 SETUP
=========
* The baseline is Linux v5.2 with schedutil (non-invariant) and the intel_pstate
driver in passive mode.
* The rationale for choosing the various freq_max values to test have been to
try all the 1-2-3-4C turbo levels (note that 1C and 2C turbo are identical
on all machines), plus one more value closer to base_freq but still in the
turbo range (8C turbo for both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA).
* In addition we've run all tests with intel_pstate/powersave for comparison.
* The filesystem is always XFS, the userspace is openSUSE Leap 15.1.
* 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA is capable of HWP (Hardware-Managed P-States), so the runs
with active intel_pstate on this machine use that.
This gives, in terms of combinations tested on each machine:
* 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA
* Baseline: Linux v5.2, non-invariant schedutil, intel_pstate passive
* intel_pstate active + powersave + HWP
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 1C turbo
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 3C turbo
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 4C turbo
* both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA
* [same as 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA, but no HWP capable]
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 8C turbo
(which on 48x-HASWELL-NUMA is the same as 12C turbo, or "all cores turbo")
5.3 BENCHMARK RESULTS
=====================
5.3.1 NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS
------------------------
Tests that didn't show any measurable difference in performance on any of the
test machines between non-invariant schedutil and our patch are:
* NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) using either MPI or openMP for IPC, any
computational kernel
* flexible I/O (FIO)
* hackbench (using threads or processes, and using pipes or sockets)
5.3.2 NON-NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS
----------------------------
What follow are summary tables where each benchmark result is given a score.
* A tilde (~) means a neutral result, i.e. no difference from baseline.
* Scores are computed with the ratio result_new / result_baseline, so a tilde
means a score of 1.00.
* The results in the score ratio are the geometric means of results running
the benchmark with different parameters (eg: for kernbench: using 1, 2, 4,
... number of processes; for pgbench: varying the number of clients, and so
on).
* The first three tables show higher-is-better kind of tests (i.e. measured in
operations/second), the subsequent three show lower-is-better kind of tests
(i.e. the workload is fixed and we measure elapsed time, think kernbench).
* "gitsource" is a name we made up for the test consisting in running the
entire unit tests suite of the Git SCM and measuring how long it takes. We
take it as a typical example of shell-intensive serialized workload.
* In the "I_PSTATE" column we have the results for intel_pstate/powersave. Other
columns show invariant schedutil for different values of freq_max. 4C turbo
is circled as it's the value we've chosen for the final implementation.

+------+
In the table above we see that active intel_pstate is slightly better than our
4C-turbo patch (both in reference to the baseline non-invariant schedutil) on
read-only pgbench and much better on tbench. Both cases are notable in which
it shows that lowering our freq_max (to 8C-turbo and 12C-turbo on
80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA respectively) helps invariant
schedutil to get closer.
If we ignore active intel_pstate and focus on the comparison with baseline
alone, there are several instances of double-digit performance improvement.

gitsource 0.97 0.69 0.69 | 0.69 | 0.69
+------+
dbench is not very remarkable here, unless we notice how poorly active
intel_pstate is performing on 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA: 23% regression versus
non-invariant schedutil. We repeated that run getting consistent results. Out
of scope for the patch at hand, but deserving future investigation. Other than
that, we previously ran this campaign with Linux v5.0 and saw the patch doing
better on dbench a the time. We haven't checked closely and can only speculate
at this point.
On the NUMA boxes kernbench gets 10-15% improvements on average; we'll see in
the detailed tables that the gains concentrate on low process counts (lightly
loaded machines).
The test we call "gitsource" (running the git unit test suite, a long-running
single-threaded shell script) appears rather spectacular in this table (gains
of 30-50% depending on the machine). It is to be noted, however, that
gitsource has no adjustable parameters (such as the number of jobs in
kernbench, which we average over in order to get a single-number summary
score) and is exactly the kind of low-parallelism workload that benefits the
most from this patch. When looking at the detailed tables of kernbench or
tbench4, at low process or client counts one can see similar numbers.

This is one of the cases where the patch still can't surpass active
intel_pstate, not even when freq_max is as low as 12C-turbo. Otherwise, gains are
visible up to 16 clients and the saturated scenario is the same as baseline.
The scores in the summary table from the previous sections are ratios of
geometric means of the results over different clients, as seen in this table.

The patch outperform active intel_pstate (and baseline) by a considerable
margin; the summary table from the previous section says 4C turbo and active
intel_pstate are 0.83 and 0.93 against baseline respectively, so 4C turbo is
0.83/0.93=0.89 against intel_pstate (~10% better on average). There is no
noticeable difference with regard to the value of freq_max.

In this test, which is of interest as representing shell-intensive

intel_pstate/powersave by a whopping 40% margin.
5.3.4 POWER CONSUMPTION, PERFORMANCE-PER-WATT
---------------------------------------------
The following table shows average power consumption in watt for each
benchmark. Data comes from turbostat (package average), which in turn is read
from the RAPL interface on CPUs. We know the patch affects CPU frequencies so
it's reasonable to ignore other power consumers (such as memory or I/O). Also,
we don't have a power meter available in the lab so RAPL is the best we have.
turbostat sampled average power every 10 seconds for the entire duration of
each benchmark. We took all those values and averaged them (i.e. with don't
have detail on a per-parameter granularity, only on whole benchmarks).

with that energy. Here are tables with the ratio of performance-per-watt on

These results are overall pleasing: in plenty of cases we observe
performance-per-watt improvements. The few regressions (read/write pgbench and
dbench on the Broadwell machine) are of small magnitude. kernbench loses a few
percentage points (it has a 10-15% performance improvement, but apparently the
increase in power consumption is larger than that). tbench4 and gitsource, which
benefit the most from the patch, keep a positive score in this table which is
a welcome surprise; that suggests that in those particular workloads the
non-invariant schedutil (and active intel_pstate, too) makes some rather
suboptimal frequency selections.

When a running task is moved on a throttled task group and there is no
other task enqueued on the CPU, the task can keep running using 100% CPU
whatever the allocated bandwidth for the group and although its cfs rq is
throttled. Furthermore, the group entity of the cfs_rq and its parents are
not enqueued but only set as curr on their respective cfs_rqs.
We have the following sequence:
sched_move_task
-dequeue_task: dequeue task and group_entities.
-put_prev_task: put task and group entities.
-sched_change_group: move task to new group.
-enqueue_task: enqueue only task but not group entities because cfs_rq is
throttled.
-set_next_task : set task and group_entities as current sched_entity of
their cfs_rq.
Another impact is that the root cfs_rq runnable_load_avg at root rq stays
null because the group_entities are not enqueued. This situation will stay
the same until an "external" event triggers a reschedule. Let trigger it
immediately instead.

On a machine, CPU 0 is used for housekeeping, the other 39 CPUs in the
same socket are in nohz_full mode. We can observe huge time burn in the
loop for seaching nearest busy housekeeper cpu by ftrace.
2) | get_nohz_timer_target() {
2) 0.240 us | housekeeping_test_cpu();
2) 0.458 us | housekeeping_test_cpu();
...
2) 0.292 us | housekeeping_test_cpu();
2) 0.240 us | housekeeping_test_cpu();
2) 0.227 us | housekeeping_any_cpu();
2) + 43.460 us | }
This patch optimizes the searching logic by finding a nearest housekeeper
CPU in the housekeeping cpumask, it can minimize the worst searching time
from ~44us to < 10us in my testing. In addition, the last iterated busy
housekeeper can become a random candidate while current CPU is a better
fallback if it is a housekeeper.

upon entering nohz. This can be particularly noticeable if full nohz is

When a new cgroup is created, the effective uclamp value wasn't updated
with a call to cpu_util_update_eff() that looks at the hierarchy and
update to the most restrictive values.
Fix it by ensuring to call cpu_util_update_eff() when a new cgroup
becomes online.
Without this change, the newly created cgroup uses the default
root_task_group uclamp values, which is 1024 for both uclamp_{min, max},
which will cause the rq to to be clamped to max, hence cause the
system to run at max frequency.
The problem was observed on Ubuntu server and was reproduced on Debian
and Buildroot rootfs.
By default, Ubuntu and Debian create a cpu controller cgroup hierarchy
and add all tasks to it - which creates enough noise to keep the rq
uclamp value at max most of the time. Imitating this behavior makes the
problem visible in Buildroot too which otherwise looks fine since it's a
minimal userspace.

Vincent pointed out recently that the canonical type for utilization
values is 'unsigned long'. Internally uclamp uses 'unsigned int' values for
cache optimization, but this doesn't have to be exported to its users.
Make the uclamp helpers that deal with utilization use and return unsigned

to fix various exit races. (Thomas Gleixner et al)
- Rework the generic REFCOUNT_FULL implementation using

With these performance improvements the generic implementation of

The load-balancing rework is the most intrusive change: it replaces
the old heuristics that have become less meaningful after the
introduction of the PELT metrics, with a grounds-up load-balancing
algorithm.
As such it's not really an iterative series, but replaces the old
load-balancing logic with the new one. We hope there are no
performance regressions left - but statistically it's highly probable
that there *is* going to be some workload that is hurting from these
chnages. If so then we'd prefer to have a look at that workload and

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
"A lot of stuff has been going on this cycle, with improving the
support for networked IO (and hence unbounded request completion
times) being one of the major themes. There's been a set of fixes done
this week, I'll send those out as well once we're certain we're fully
happy with them.
This contains:
- Unification of the "normal" submit path and the SQPOLL path (Pavel)
- Support for sparse (and bigger) file sets, and updating of those
file sets without needing to unregister/register again.
- Independently sized CQ ring, instead of just making it always 2x
the SQ ring size. This makes it more flexible for networked
applications.
- Support for overflowed CQ ring, never dropping events but providing
backpressure on submits.
- Add support for absolute timeouts, not just relative ones.
- Support for generic cancellations. This divorces io_uring from
workqueues as well, which additionally gets us one step closer to
generic async system call support.
- With cancellations, we can support grabbing the process file table
as well, just like we do mm context. This allows support for system
calls that create file descriptors, like accept4() support that's
built on top of that.
- Support for io_uring tracing (Dmitrii)
- Support for linked timeouts. These abort an operation if it isn't
completed by the time noted in the linke timeout.
- Speedup tracking of poll requests
- Various cleanups making the coder easier to follow (Jackie, Pavel,
Bob, YueHaibing, me)
- Update MAINTAINERS with new io_uring list"

Some uclamp helpers had their return type changed from 'unsigned int' to
'enum uclamp_id' by commit
0413d7f33e ("sched/uclamp: Always use 'enum uclamp_id' for clamp_id values")
but it happens that some do return a value in the [0, SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE]
range, which should really be unsigned int. The affected helpers are
uclamp_none(), uclamp_rq_max_value() and uclamp_eff_value(). Fix those up.
Note that this doesn't lead to any obj diff using a relatively recent
aarch64 compiler (8.3-2019.03). The current code of e.g. uclamp_eff_value()
properly returns an 11 bit value (bits_per(1024)) and doesn't seem to do
anything funny. I'm still marking this as fixing the above commit to be on
the safe side.

While seemingly harmless, __sched_fork() does hrtimer_init(), which,
when DEBUG_OBJETS, can end up doing allocations.
This then results in the following lock order:
rq->lock
zone->lock.rlock
batched_entropy_u64.lock
Which in turn causes deadlocks when we do wakeups while holding that
batched_entropy lock -- as the random code does.
Solve this by moving __sched_fork() out from under rq->lock. This is
safe because nothing there relies on rq->lock, as also evident from the
other __sched_fork() callsite.
