2016-08-18sched/fair: Let asymmetric CPU configurations balance at wake-upMorten Rasmussen
Currently, SD_WAKE_AFFINE always takes priority over wakeup balancing if SD_BALANCE_WAKE is set on the sched_domains. For asymmetric configurations SD_WAKE_AFFINE is only desirable if the waking task's compute demand (utilization) is suitable for the waking CPU and the previous CPU, and all CPUs within their respective SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES domains (sd_llc). If not, let wakeup balancing take over (find_idlest_{group, cpu}()). This patch makes affine wake-ups conditional on whether both the waker CPU and the previous CPU has sufficient capacity for the waking task, or not, assuming that the CPU capacities within an SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES domain (sd_llc) are homogeneous.

2016-08-16cpufreq / sched: Pass runqueue pointer to cpufreq_update_util()Rafael J. Wysocki
All of the callers of cpufreq_update_util() pass rq_clock(rq) to it as the time argument and some of them check whether or not cpu_of(rq) is equal to smp_processor_id() before calling it, so rework it to take a runqueue pointer as the argument and move the rq_clock(rq) evaluation into it. Additionally, provide a wrapper checking cpu_of(rq) against smp_processor_id() for the cpufreq_update_util() callers that need it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2016-08-16cpufreq / sched: Pass flags to cpufreq_update_util()Rafael J. Wysocki
It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util() and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data. However, doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they already take would be clumsy, so avoid it. Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly. This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util() and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow. Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track updates from the RT and DL sched classes. Make it non-modular too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at large. Next, update all of the other users of cpufreq_update_util() and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data accordingly.

2016-08-10sched/fair: Optimize find_idlest_cpu() when there is no choiceMorten Rasmussen
In the current find_idlest_group()/find_idlest_cpu() search we end up calling find_idlest_cpu() in a sched_group containing only one CPU in the end.

2016-08-10sched/fair: Make the use of prev_cpu consistent in the wakeup pathMorten Rasmussen
In commit: ac66f5477239 ("sched/numa: Introduce migrate_swap()") select_task_rq() got a 'cpu' argument to enable overriding of prev_cpu in special cases (NUMA task swapping). However, the select_task_rq_fair() helper functions: wake_affine() and select_idle_sibling(), still use task_cpu(p) directly to work out prev_cpu, which leads to inconsistencies. This patch passes prev_cpu (potentially overridden by NUMA code) into the helper functions to ensure prev_cpu is indeed the same CPU everywhere in the wakeup path. cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: dietmar.eggemann@arm.com Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: mgalbraith@suse.de Cc: vincent.guittot@linaro.org Cc: yuyang.du@intel.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1466615004-3503-3-git-send-email-morten.rasmussen@arm.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Vincent noted that the update_tg_load_avg() usage in commit: 3d30544f0212 ("sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixes") isn't entirely sufficient. We need to call this function every time cfs_rq->avg.load changes, this includes when update_cfs_rq_load_avg() returns true, but {attach,detach}_entity_load_avg() themselves also change it. This means we need to unconditionally call update_tg_load_avg(). Also, add more comments.

2016-06-27sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixesPeter Zijlstra
One additional 'rule' for using update_cfs_rq_load_avg() is that one should call update_tg_load_avg() if it returns true. Add a bunch of comments to hopefully clarify some of the rules: o You need to update cfs_rq _before_ any entity attach/detach, this is important, because while for mathmatical consisency this isn't strictly needed, it is required for the physical interpretation of the model, you attach/detach _now_. o When you modify the cfs_rq avg, you have to then call update_tg_load_avg() in order to propagate changes upwards. o (Fair) entities are always attached, switched_{to,from}_fair() deal with !fair. This directly follows from the definition of the cfs_rq averages, namely that they are a direct sum of all (runnable or blocked) entities on that rq. It is the second rule that this patch enforces, but it adds comments pertaining to all of them.

2016-06-27sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new tasksPeter Zijlstra
Vincent and Yuyang found another few scenarios in which entity tracking goes wobbly. The scenarios are basically due to the fact that new tasks are not immediately attached and thereby differ from the normal situation -- a task is always attached to a cfs_rq load average (such that it includes its blocked contribution) and are explicitly detached/attached on migration to another cfs_rq. Scenario 1: switch to fair class p->sched_class = fair_class; if (queued) enqueue_task(p); ... enqueue_entity() enqueue_entity_load_avg() migrated = !sa->last_update_time (true) if (migrated) attach_entity_load_avg() check_class_changed() switched_from() (!fair) switched_to() (fair) switched_to_fair() attach_entity_load_avg() If @p is a new task that hasn't been fair before, it will have !last_update_time and, per the above, end up in attach_entity_load_avg() _twice_. Scenario 2: change between cgroups sched_move_group(p) if (queued) dequeue_task() task_move_group_fair() detach_task_cfs_rq() detach_entity_load_avg() set_task_rq() attach_task_cfs_rq() attach_entity_load_avg() if (queued) enqueue_task(); ... enqueue_entity() enqueue_entity_load_avg() migrated = !sa->last_update_time (true) if (migrated) attach_entity_load_avg() Similar as with scenario 1, if @p is a new task, it will have !load_update_time and we'll end up in attach_entity_load_avg() _twice_. Furthermore, notice how we do a detach_entity_load_avg() on something that wasn't attached to begin with. As stated above; the problem is that the new task isn't yet attached to the load tracking and thereby violates the invariant assumption. This patch remedies this by ensuring a new task is indeed properly attached to the load tracking on creation, through post_init_entity_util_avg(). Of course, this isn't entirely as straightforward as one might think, since the task is hashed before we call wake_up_new_task() and thus can be poked at. We avoid this by adding TASK_NEW and teaching cpu_cgroup_can_attach() to refuse such tasks.

2016-06-27sched/cgroup: Fix cpu_cgroup_fork() handlingVincent Guittot
A new fair task is detached and attached from/to task_group with: cgroup_post_fork() ss->fork(child) := cpu_cgroup_fork() sched_move_task() task_move_group_fair() Which is wrong, because at this point in fork() the task isn't fully initialized and it cannot 'move' to another group, because its not attached to any group as yet. In fact, cpu_cgroup_fork() needs a small part of sched_move_task() so we can just call this small part directly instead sched_move_task(). And the task doesn't really migrate because it is not yet attached so we need the following sequence: do_fork() sched_fork() __set_task_cpu() cgroup_post_fork() set_task_rq() # set task group and runqueue wake_up_new_task() select_task_rq() can select a new cpu __set_task_cpu post_init_entity_util_avg attach_task_cfs_rq() activate_task enqueue_task This patch makes that happen.

2016-06-27sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new groupsPeter Zijlstra
Vincent reported that when a new task is moved into a new cgroup it gets attached twice to the load tracking: sched_move_task() task_move_group_fair() detach_task_cfs_rq() set_task_rq() attach_task_cfs_rq() attach_entity_load_avg() se->avg.last_load_update = cfs_rq->avg.last_load_update // == 0 enqueue_entity() enqueue_entity_load_avg() update_cfs_rq_load_avg() now = clock() __update_load_avg(&cfs_rq->avg) cfs_rq->avg.last_load_update = now // ages load/util for: now - 0, load/util -> 0 if (migrated) attach_entity_load_avg() se->avg.last_load_update = cfs_rq->avg.last_load_update; // now != 0 The problem is that we don't update cfs_rq load_avg before all entity attach/detach operations. Only enqueue_task() and migrate_task() do this. By fixing this, the above will not happen, because the sched_move_task() attach will have updated cfs_rq's last_load_update time before attach, and in turn the attach will have set the entity's last_load_update stamp. Note that there is a further problem with sched_move_task() calling detach on a task that hasn't yet been attached; this will be taken care of in a subsequent patch.

2016-06-27sched/fair: Fix and optimize the fork() pathPeter Zijlstra
The task_fork_fair() callback already calls __set_task_cpu() and takes rq->lock. If we move the sched_class::task_fork callback in sched_fork() under the existing p->pi_lock, right after its set_task_cpu() call, we can avoid doing two such calls and omit the IRQ disabling on the rq->lock. Change to __set_task_cpu() to skip the migration bits, this is a new task, not a migration. Similarly, make wake_up_new_task() use __set_task_cpu() for the same reason, the task hasn't actually migrated as it hasn't ever ran. This cures the problem of calling migrate_task_rq_fair(), which does remove_entity_from_load_avg() on tasks that have never been added to the load avg to begin with. This bug would result in transiently messed up load_avg values, averaged out after a few dozen milliseconds. This is probably the reason why this bug was not found for such a long time.

Commit: fde7d22e01aa ("sched/fair: Fix overly small weight for interactive group entities") did something non-obvious but also did it buggy yet latent. The problem was exposed for real by a later commit in the v4.7 merge window: 2159197d6677 ("sched/core: Enable increased load resolution on 64-bit kernels") ... after which tg->load_avg and cfs_rq->load.weight had different units (10 bit fixed point and 20 bit fixed point resp.). Add a comment to explain the use of cfs_rq->load.weight over the 'natural' cfs_rq->avg.load_avg and add scale_load_down() to correct for the difference in unit.

2016-06-27sched/fair: Fix effective_load() to consistently use smoothed loadPeter Zijlstra
Starting with the following commit: fde7d22e01aa ("sched/fair: Fix overly small weight for interactive group entities") calc_tg_weight() doesn't compute the right value as expected by effective_load(). The difference is in the 'correction' term. In order to ensure \Sum rw_j >= rw_i we cannot use tg->load_avg directly, since that might be lagging a correction on the current cfs_rq->avg.load_avg value. Therefore we use tg->load_avg - cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib + cfs_rq->avg.load_avg. Now, per the referenced commit, calc_tg_weight() doesn't use cfs_rq->avg.load_avg, as is later used in @w, but uses cfs_rq->load.weight instead. So stop using calc_tg_weight() and do it explicitly. The effects of this bug are wake_affine() making randomly poor choices in cgroup-intense workloads.

So I _should_ have looked at other unserialized users of ->load_avg, but alas. Luckily nikbor reported a similar /0 from task_h_load() which instantly triggered recollection of this here problem. Aside from the intermediate value hitting memory and causing problems, there's another problem: the underflow detection relies on the signed bit. This reduces the effective width of the variables, IOW its effectively the same as having these variables be of signed type. This patch changes to a different means of unsigned underflow detection to not rely on the signed bit. This allows the variables to use the 'full' unsigned range. And it does so with explicit LOAD - STORE to ensure any intermediate value will never be visible in memory, allowing these unserialized loads. Note: GCC generates crap code for this, might warrant a look later. Note2: I say 'full' above, if we end up at U*_MAX we'll still explode; maybe we should do clamping on add too.

2016-05-12sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migrationPeter Zijlstra
Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups) the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues. The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past). This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we might be placing the current task. The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment in time, and not in the past. This commit re-introduces the previously reverted commit: 3a47d5124a95 ("sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration") ... which is now safe to do, after we've also fixed another underlying bug first, in: sched/fair: Prepare to fix fairness problems on migration and cleaned up other details in the migration code: sched/core: Kill sched_class::task_waking Reported-by: Pavan Kondeti <pkondeti@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

2016-05-12sched/fair: Prepare to fix fairness problems on migrationPeter Zijlstra
Mike reported that our recent attempt to fix migration problems: 3a47d5124a95 ("sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration") broke interactivity and the signal starve test. We reverted that commit and now let's try it again more carefully, with some other underlying problems fixed first. One problem is that I assumed ENQUEUE_WAKING was only set when we do a cross-cpu wakeup (migration), which isn't true. This means we now destroy the vruntime history of tasks and wakeup-preemption suffers. Cure this by making my assumption true, only call sched_class::task_waking() when we do a cross-cpu wakeup. This avoids the indirect call in the case we do a local wakeup.

The following commit: 34e2c555f3e1 ("cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks") overlooked the fact that update_load_avg(), where CFS invokes cpufreq utilization update callbacks, becomes an empty stub on UP kernels. In consequence, if !CONFIG_SMP, cpufreq governors are never invoked from CFS and they do not have a chance to evaluate CPU performace levels and update them often enough. Needless to say, things don't work as expected then. Fix the problem by making the !CONFIG_SMP stub of update_load_avg() invoke cpufreq update callbacks too.

Integer metric needs fixed point arithmetic. In sched/fair, a few metrics, e.g., weight, load, load_avg, util_avg, freq, and capacity, may have different fixed point ranges, which makes their update and usage error-prone. In order to avoid the errors relating to the fixed point range, we definie a basic fixed point range, and then formalize all metrics to base on the basic range. The basic range is 1024 or (1 << 10). Further, one can recursively apply the basic range to have larger range. Pointed out by Ben Segall, weight (visible to user, e.g., NICE-0 has 1024) and load (e.g., NICE_0_LOAD) have independent ranges, but they must be well calibrated.

2016-05-05locking/lockdep, sched/core: Implement a better lock pinning schemePeter Zijlstra
The problem with the existing lock pinning is that each pin is of value 1; this mean you can simply unpin if you know its pinned, without having any extra information. This scheme generates a random (16 bit) cookie for each pin and requires this same cookie to unpin. This means you have to keep the cookie in context. No objsize difference for !LOCKDEP kernels.

2016-04-23sched/fair: Optimize !CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON CPU load updatesFrederic Weisbecker
Some code in CPU load update only concern NO_HZ configs but it is built on all configurations. When NO_HZ isn't built, that code is harmless but just happens to take some useless ressources in CPU and memory: 1) one useless field in struct rq 2) jiffies record on every tick that is never used (cpu_load_update_periodic) 3) decay_load_missed is called two times on every tick to eventually return immediately with no action taken. And that function is dead code. For pure optimization purposes, lets conditionally build the NO_HZ related code.

2016-04-23sched/fair: Correctly handle nohz ticks CPU load accountingFrederic Weisbecker
Ticks can happen while the CPU is in dynticks-idle or dynticks-singletask mode. In fact "nohz" or "dynticks" only mean that we exit the periodic mode and we try to minimize the ticks as much as possible. The nohz subsystem uses a confusing terminology with the internal state "ts->tick_stopped" which is also available through its public interface with tick_nohz_tick_stopped(). This is a misnomer as the tick is instead reduced with the best effort rather than stopped. In the best case the tick can indeed be actually stopped but there is no guarantee about that. If a timer needs to fire one second later, a tick will fire while the CPU is in nohz mode and this is a very common scenario. Now this confusion happens to be a problem with CPU load updates: cpu_load_update_active() doesn't handle nohz ticks correctly because it assumes that ticks are completely stopped in nohz mode and that cpu_load_update_active() can't be called in dynticks mode. When that happens, the whole previous tickless load is ignored and the function just records the load for the current tick, ignoring potentially long idle periods behind. In order to solve this, we could account the current load for the previous nohz time but there is a risk that we account the load of a task that got freshly enqueued for the whole nohz period. So instead, lets record the dynticks load on nohz frame entry so we know what to record in case of nohz ticks, then use this record to account the tickless load on nohz ticks and nohz frame end.

2016-04-23sched/fair: Gather CPU load functions under a more conventional namespaceFrederic Weisbecker
The CPU load update related functions have a weak naming convention currently, starting with update_cpu_load_*() which isn't ideal as "update" is a very generic concept. Since two of these functions are public already (and a third is to come) that's enough to introduce a more conventional naming scheme. So let's do the following rename instead: update_cpu_load_*() -> cpu_load_update_*() Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Byungchul Park <byungchul.park@lge.com> Cc: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul E .

2016-04-23sched/fair: Call cpufreq hook in additional pathsSteve Muckle
The cpufreq hook should be called any time the root CFS rq utilization changes. This can occur when a task is switched to or from the fair class, or a task moves between groups or CPUs, but these paths currently do not call the cpufreq hook. Fix this by adding the hook to attach_entity_load_avg() and detach_entity_load_avg().

2016-04-23sched/fair: Move cpufreq hook to update_cfs_rq_load_avg()Steve Muckle
The cpufreq hook should be called whenever the root cfs_rq utilization changes so update_cfs_rq_load_avg() is a better place for it.
