2024-12-09sched/fair: Use the new cfs_rq.h_nr_runnableVincent Guittot
Use the new h_nr_runnable that tracks only queued and runnable tasks in the statistics that are used to balance the system: - PELT runnable_avg - deciding if a group is overloaded or has spare capacity - numa stats - reduced capacity management - load balance - nohz kick It should be noticed that the rq->nr_running still counts the delayed dequeued tasks as delayed dequeue is a fair feature that is meaningless at core level.

2024-12-02sched/deadline: Correctly account for allocated bandwidth during hotplugJuri Lelli
For hotplug operations, DEADLINE needs to check that there is still enough bandwidth left after removing the CPU that is going offline. We however fail to do so currently. Restore the correct behavior by restructuring dl_bw_manage() a bit, so that overflow conditions (not enough bandwidth left) are properly checked. Also account for dl_server bandwidth, i.e. discount such bandwidth in the calculation since NORMAL tasks will be anyway moved away from the CPU as a result of the hotplug operation.

balance_scx() sched_ext dispatches tasks from the BPF scheduler from balance_scx() and thus every pick_task_scx() call must be preceded by balance_scx(). While this usually holds, due to a bug, there are cases where the fair class's balance() returns true indicating that it has tasks to run on the CPU and thus terminating balance() calls but fails to actually find the next task to run when pick_task() is called. In such cases, pick_task_scx() can be called without preceding balance_scx(). Detect this condition using SCX_RQ_BAL_PENDING flags. If detected, keep running the previous task if possible and avoid stalling from entering idle without balancing.

2024-11-05sched: Add Lazy preemption modelPeter Zijlstra
Change fair to use resched_curr_lazy(), which, when the lazy preemption model is selected, will set TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY. This LAZY bit will be promoted to the full NEED_RESCHED bit on tick. As such, the average delay between setting LAZY and actually rescheduling will be TICK_NSEC/2. In short, Lazy preemption will delay preemption for fair class but will function as Full preemption for all the other classes, most notably the realtime (RR/FIFO/DEADLINE) classes. The goal is to bridge the performance gap with Voluntary, such that we might eventually remove that option entirely.

2024-10-26sched: psi: pass enqueue/dequeue flags to psi callbacks directlyJohannes Weiner
What psi needs to do on each enqueue and dequeue has gotten more subtle, and the generic sched code trying to distill this into a bool for the callbacks is awkward. Pass the flags directly and let psi parse them. For that to work, the #include "stats.h" (which has the psi callback implementations) needs to be below the flag definitions in "sched.h". Move that section further down, next to some of the other accounting stuff. This also puts the ENQUEUE_SAVE/RESTORE branch behind the psi jump label, slightly reducing overhead when PSI=y but runtime disabled.

2024-10-23sched: Fix pick_next_task_fair() vs try_to_wake_up() racePeter Zijlstra
Syzkaller robot reported KCSAN tripping over the ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_WRITER(p->on_rq) in __block_task(). The report noted that both pick_next_task_fair() and try_to_wake_up() were concurrently trying to write to the same p->on_rq, violating the assertion -- even though both paths hold rq->__lock. The logical consequence is that both code paths end up holding a different rq->__lock. And looking through ttwu(), this is possible when the __block_task() 'p->on_rq = 0' store is visible to the ttwu() 'p->on_rq' load, which then assumes the task is not queued and continues to migrate it. Rearrange things such that __block_task() releases @p with the store and no code thereafter will use @p again.

2024-10-14sched: Split scheduler and execution contextsPeter Zijlstra
Let's define the "scheduling context" as all the scheduler state in task_struct for the task chosen to run, which we'll call the donor task, and the "execution context" as all state required to actually run the task. Currently both are intertwined in task_struct. We want to logically split these such that we can use the scheduling context of the donor task selected to be scheduled, but use the execution context of a different task to actually be run. To this purpose, introduce rq->donor field to point to the task_struct chosen from the runqueue by the scheduler, and will be used for scheduler state, and preserve rq->curr to indicate the execution context of the task that will actually be run. This patch introduces the donor field as a union with curr, so it doesn't cause the contexts to be split yet, but adds the logic to handle everything separately.

2024-10-14sched: Improve cache locality of RSEQ concurrency IDs for intermittent workloadsMathieu Desnoyers
commit 223baf9d17f25 ("sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid") introduced a per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid), which keeps a reference to the concurrency id allocated for each CPU. This reference expires shortly after a 100ms delay. These per-CPU references keep the per-mm-cid data cache-local in situations where threads are running at least once on each CPU within each 100ms window, thus keeping the per-cpu reference alive. However, intermittent workloads behaving in bursts spaced by more than 100ms on each CPU exhibit bad cache locality and degraded performance compared to purely per-cpu data indexing, because concurrency IDs are allocated over various CPUs and cores, therefore losing cache locality of the associated data. Introduce the following changes to improve per-mm-cid cache locality: - Add a "recent_cid" field to the per-mm/cpu mm_cid structure to keep track of which mm_cid value was last used, and use it as a hint to attempt re-allocating the same concurrency ID the next time this mm/cpu needs to allocate a concurrency ID, - Add a per-mm CPUs allowed mask, which keeps track of the union of CPUs allowed for all threads belonging to this mm. This cpumask is only set during the lifetime of the mm, never cleared, so it represents the union of all the CPUs allowed since the beginning of the mm lifetime (note that the mm_cpumask() is really arch-specific and tailored to the TLB flush needs, and is thus _not_ a viable approach for this), - Add a per-mm nr_cpus_allowed to keep track of the weight of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask (for fast access), - Add a per-mm max_nr_cid to keep track of the highest number of concurrency IDs allocated for the mm. This is used for expanding the concurrency ID allocation within the upper bound defined by: min(mm->nr_cpus_allowed, mm->mm_users) When the next unused CID value reaches this threshold, stop trying to expand the cid allocation and use the first available cid value instead. Spreading allocation to use all the cid values within the range [ 0, min(mm->nr_cpus_allowed, mm->mm_users) - 1 ] improves cache locality while preserving mm_cid compactness within the expected user limits, - In __mm_cid_try_get, only return cid values within the range [ 0, mm->nr_cpus_allowed ] rather than [ 0, nr_cpu_ids ]. This prevents allocating cids above the number of allowed cpus in rare scenarios where cid allocation races with a concurrent remote-clear of the per-mm/cpu cid. This improvement is made possible by the addition of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask, - In sched_mm_cid_migrate_to, use mm->nr_cpus_allowed rather than t->nr_cpus_allowed. This criterion was really meant to compare the number of mm->mm_users to the number of CPUs allowed for the entire mm. Therefore, the prior comparison worked fine when all threads shared the same CPUs allowed mask, but not so much in scenarios where those threads have different masks (e.g. each thread pinned to a single CPU). This improvement is made possible by the addition of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask. * Benchmarks Each thread increments 16kB worth of 8-bit integers in bursts, with a configurable delay between each thread's execution. Each thread run one after the other (no threads run concurrently). The order of thread execution in the sequence is random. The thread execution sequence begins again after all threads have executed. The 16kB areas are allocated with rseq_mempool and indexed by either cpu_id, mm_cid (not cache-local), or cache-local mm_cid. Each thread is pinned to its own core. Testing configurations: 8-core/1-L3: Use 8 cores within a single L3 24-core/24-L3: Use 24 cores, 1 core per L3 192-core/24-L3: Use 192 cores (all cores in the system) 384-thread/24-L3: Use 384 HW threads (all HW threads in the system) Intermittent workload delays between threads: 200ms, 10ms.

Commit 2e0199df252a ("sched/fair: Prepare exit/cleanup paths for delayed_dequeue") and its follow up fixes try to deal with a rather unfortunate situation where is task is enqueued in a new class, even though it shouldn't have been.

This all led to Paul being able to trigger failures at something like once per 10k CPU hours of RCU torture.

2024-09-10sched_ext: Synchronize bypass state changes with rq lockTejun Heo
While the BPF scheduler is being unloaded, the following warning messages trigger sometimes: NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #80!!! This is caused by the CPU entering idle while there are pending softirqs. The main culprit is the bypassing state assertion not being synchronized with rq operations. As the BPF scheduler cannot be trusted in the disable path, the first step is entering the bypass mode where the BPF scheduler is ignored and scheduling becomes global FIFO. This is implemented by turning scx_ops_bypassing() true. However, the transition isn't synchronized against anything and it's possible for enqueue and dispatch paths to have different ideas on whether bypass mode is on. Make each rq track its own bypass state with SCX_RQ_BYPASSING which is modified while rq is locked. This removes most of the NOHZ tick-stop messages but not completely. I believe the stragglers are from the sched core bug where pick_task_scx() can be called without preceding balance_scx(). Once that bug is fixed, we should verify that all occurrences of this error message are gone too. v2: scx_enabled() test moved inside the for_each_possible_cpu() loop so that the per-cpu states are always synchronized with the global state.

2024-09-04sched_ext: Add cgroup supportTejun Heo
Add sched_ext_ops operations to init/exit cgroups, and track task migrations and config changes. A BPF scheduler may not implement or implement only subset of cgroup features. The implemented features can be indicated using %SCX_OPS_HAS_CGOUP_* flags. If cgroup configuration makes use of features that are not implemented, a warning is triggered. While a BPF scheduler is being enabled and disabled, relevant cgroup operations are locked out using scx_cgroup_rwsem. This avoids situations like task prep taking place while the task is being moved across cgroups, making things easier for BPF schedulers. v7: - cgroup interface file visibility toggling is dropped in favor just warning messages. Dynamically changing interface visiblity caused more confusion than helping. v6: - Updated to reflect the removal of SCX_KF_SLEEPABLE. - Updated to use CONFIG_GROUP_SCHED_WEIGHT and fixes for !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED && CONFIG_EXT_GROUP_SCHED. v5: - Flipped the locking order between scx_cgroup_rwsem and cpus_read_lock() to avoid locking order conflict w/ cpuset. Better documentation around locking. - sched_move_task() takes an early exit if the source and destination are identical. This triggered the warning in scx_cgroup_can_attach() as it left p->scx.cgrp_moving_from uncleared. Updated the cgroup migration path so that ops.cgroup_prep_move() is skipped for identity migrations so that its invocations always match ops.cgroup_move() one-to-one. v4: - Example schedulers moved into their own patches. - Fix build failure when !CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED, reported by Andrea Righi. v3: - Make scx_example_pair switch all tasks by default. - Convert to BPF inline iterators. - scx_bpf_task_cgroup() is added to determine the current cgroup from CPU controller's POV. This allows BPF schedulers to accurately track CPU cgroup membership. - scx_example_flatcg added. This demonstrates flattened hierarchy implementation of CPU cgroup control and shows significant performance improvement when cgroups which are nested multiple levels are under competition. v2: - Build fixes for different CONFIG combinations.

2024-09-04sched: Introduce CONFIG_GROUP_SCHED_WEIGHTTejun Heo
sched_ext will soon add cgroup cpu.weigh support. The cgroup interface code is currently gated behind CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED. As the fair class and/or SCX may implement the feature, put the interface code behind the new CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED_WEIGHT which is selected by CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED. This allows either sched class to enable the itnerface code without ading more complex CONFIG tests. When !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED, a dummy version of sched_group_set_shares() is added to support later CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED_WEIGHT && !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED builds. No functional changes.

2024-09-03sched: Rework dl_serverPeter Zijlstra
When a task is selected through a dl_server, it will have p->dl_server set, such that it can account runtime to the dl_server, see update_curr_task(). Currently p->dl_server is set in pick*task() whenever it goes through the dl_server, clearing it is a bit of a mess though. The trivial solution is clearing it on the final put (now that we have this location). However, this gives a problem when: p = pick_task(rq); if (p) put_prev_set_next_task(rq, prev, next); picks the same task but through a different path, notably when it goes from picking through the dl_server to a direct pick or vice-versa. In that case we cannot readily determine wether we should clear or preserve p->dl_server. An additional complication is pick_*task() setting p->dl_server for a remote pick, it might still need to update runtime before it schedules the core_pick. Close all these holes and remove all the random clearing of p->dl_server by: - having pick_*task() manage rq->dl_server - having the final put_prev_task() clear p->dl_server - having the first set_next_task() set p->dl_server = rq->dl_server - complicate the core_sched code to save/restore rq->dl_server where appropriate.

2024-09-03sched: Rework pick_next_task()Peter Zijlstra
The current rule is that: pick_next_task() := pick_task() + set_next_task(.first = true) And many classes implement it directly as such. Change things around to make pick_next_task() optional while also changing the definition to: pick_next_task(prev) := pick_task() + put_prev_task() + set_next_task(.first = true) The reason is that sched_ext would like to have a 'final' call that knows the next task. By placing put_prev_task() right next to set_next_task() (as it already is for sched_core) this becomes trivial. As a bonus, this is a nice cleanup on its own.

task_can_run_on_remote_rq() is similar to is_cpu_allowed() but there are subtle differences. It currently open codes all the tests. This is cumbersome to understand and error-prone in case the intersecting tests need to be updated. Factor out the common part - testing whether the task is allowed on the CPU at all regardless of the CPU state - into task_allowed_on_cpu() and make both is_cpu_allowed() and SCX's task_can_run_on_remote_rq() use it. As the code is now linked between the two and each contains only the extra tests that differ between them, it's less error-prone when the conditions need to be updated. Also, improve the comment to explain why they are different. v2: Replace accidental "extern inline" with "static inline" (Peter).
