commit 50caf9c14b1498c90cf808dbba2ca29bd32ccba4 upstream.
Now that we have set_affinity_pending::stop_pending to indicate if a
stopper is in progress, and we have the guarantee that if that stopper
exists, it will (eventually) complete our @pending we can simplify the
refcount scheme by no longer counting the stopper thread.

commit 9e81889c7648d48dd5fe13f41cbc99f3c362484a upstream.
Consider:
sched_setaffinity(p, X); sched_setaffinity(p, Y);
Then the first will install p->migration_pending = &my_pending; and
issue stop_one_cpu_nowait(pending); and the second one will read
p->migration_pending and _also_ issue: stop_one_cpu_nowait(pending),
the _SAME_ @pending.
This causes stopper list corruption.
Add set_affinity_pending::stop_pending, to indicate if a stopper is in
progress.

commit c20cf065d4a619d394d23290093b1002e27dff86 upstream.
When affine_move_task() issues a migration_cpu_stop(), the purpose of
that function is to complete that @pending, not any random other
p->migration_pending that might have gotten installed since.
This realization much simplifies migration_cpu_stop() and allows
further necessary steps to fix all this as it provides the guarantee
that @pending's stopper will complete @pending (and not some random
other @pending).

commit ce29ddc47b91f97e7f69a0fb7cbb5845f52a9825 upstream.
The function sync_runqueues_membarrier_state() should copy the
membarrier state from the @mm received as parameter to each runqueue
currently running tasks using that mm.
However, the use of smp_call_function_many() skips the current runqueue,
which is unintended. Replace by a call to on_each_cpu_mask().

commit 8a6edb5257e2a84720fe78cb179eca58ba76126f upstream.
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.

[ Upstream commit 156ec6f42b8d300dbbf382738ff35c8bad8f4c3a ]
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 1f71addd34f4c ("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.

commit 1b7af295541d75535374325fd617944534853919 upstream.
The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function currently requires
that interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts
disabled from rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not
enabled as expected" diagnostic. This commit therefore updates
try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to use raw_spin_lock_irqsave() instead
of raw_spin_lock_irq(), thus allowing use from either context.

commit 43789ef3f7d61aa7bed0cb2764e588fc990c30ef upstream.
Entering RCU idle mode may cause a deferred wake up of an RCU NOCB_GP
kthread (rcuog) to be serviced.
Usually a local wake up happening while running the idle task is handled
in one of the need_resched() checks carefully placed within the idle
loop that can break to the scheduler.
Unfortunately the call to rcu_idle_enter() is already beyond the last
generic need_resched() check and we may halt the CPU with a resched
request unhandled, leaving the task hanging.
Fix this with splitting the rcuog wakeup handling from rcu_idle_enter()
and place it before the last generic need_resched() check in the idle
loop. It is then assumed that no call to call_rcu() will be performed
after that in the idle loop until the CPU is put in low power mode.

[ Upstream commit 0ae78eec8aa64e645866e75005162603a77a0f49 ]
If the task is pinned to a cpu, setting the misfit status means that
we'll unnecessarily continuously attempt to migrate the task but fail.
This continuous failure will cause the balance_interval to increase to
a high value, and eventually cause unnecessary significant delays in
balancing the system when real imbalance happens.
Caught while testing uclamp where rt-app calibration loop was pinned to
cpu 0, shortly after which we spawn another task with high util_clamp
value. The task was failing to migrate after over 40ms of runtime due to
balance_interval unnecessary expanded to a very high value from the
calibration loop.
Not done here, but it could be useful to extend the check for pinning to
verify that the affinity of the task has a cpu that fits. We could end
up in a similar situation otherwise.

[ Upstream commit 8c1f560c1ea3f19e22ba356f62680d9d449c9ec2 ]
CPU (root cfs_rq) estimated utilization (util_est) is currently used in
dequeue_task_fair() to drive frequency selection before it is updated.
with:
CPU_util : rq->cfs.avg.util_avg
CPU_util_est : rq->cfs.avg.util_est
CPU_utilization : max(CPU_util, CPU_util_est)
task_util : p->se.avg.util_avg

/* (1) CPU_util and task_util update + inform schedutil about
CPU_utilization changes */

-> cpufreq_update_util() ->...-> sugov_update_[shared\|single]
-> sugov_get_util() -> cpu_util_cfs()
/* (2) CPU_util_est and task_util_est update */
util_est_dequeue()
cpu_util_cfs() uses CPU_utilization which could lead to a false (too
high) utilization value for schedutil in task ramp-down or ramp-up
scenarios during task dequeue.
To mitigate the issue split the util_est update (2) into:
(A) CPU_util_est update in util_est_dequeue()
(B) task_util_est update in util_est_update()
Place (A) before (1) and keep (B) where (2) is. The latter is necessary
since (B) relies on task_util update in (1).

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 1cf12e08bc4d ("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
sched_cpu_deactivate(), such that we get guaranteed visibility to
ttwu(), which is a preempt-disable region.

Since commit
1cf12e08bc4d ("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.
Print the dying rq's tasks to shed some light on the stragglers.

First off, some cpufreq drivers (eg. intel_pstate) can pass hints
beyond the current target frequency to the hardware and there are no
provisions for doing that in the cpufreq framework. In particular,
today the driver has to assume that it should not allow the frequency
to fall below the one requested by the governor (or the required
capacity may not be provided) which may not be the case and which may
lead to excessive energy usage in some scenarios.
Second, the hints passed by these drivers to the hardware need not be
in terms of the frequency, so representing the utilization numbers
coming from the scheduler as frequency before passing them to those
drivers is not really useful.
Address the two points above by adding a special-purpose replacement
for the ->fast_switch callback, called ->adjust_perf, allowing the
governor to pass abstract performance level (rather than frequency)
values for the minimum (required) and target (desired) performance
along with the CPU capacity to compare them to.
Also update the schedutil governor to use the new callback instead
of ->fast_switch if present and if the utilization mertics are
frequency-invariant (that is requisite for the direct mapping
between the utilization and the CPU performance levels to be a
reasonable approximation).

Instead of passing util and max between functions while computing the
utilization and capacity, store the former in struct sg_cpu (along
with the latter and bw_dl).
This will allow the current utilization value to be compared with the
one obtained previously (which is requisite for some code changes to
follow this one), but also it causes the code to look slightly more
consistent and cleaner.

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"

membarrier()'s MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_SYNC_CORE is documented as
syncing the core on all sibling threads but not necessarily the calling
thread. This behavior is fundamentally buggy and cannot be used safely.
Suppose a user program has two threads. Thread A is on CPU 0 and thread B
is on CPU 1. Thread A modifies some text and calls
membarrier(MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_SYNC_CORE).
Then thread B executes the modified code. If, at any point after
membarrier() decides which CPUs to target, thread A could be preempted and
replaced by thread B on CPU 0. This could even happen on exit from the
membarrier() syscall. If this happens, thread B will end up running on CPU
0 without having synced.
In principle, this could be fixed by arranging for the scheduler to issue
sync_core_before_usermode() whenever switching between two threads in the
same mm if there is any possibility of a concurrent membarrier() call, but
this would have considerable overhead. Instead, make membarrier() sync the
calling CPU as well.
As an optimization, this avoids an extra smp_mb() in the default
barrier-only mode and an extra rseq preempt on the caller.

membarrier() does not explicitly sync_core() remote CPUs; instead, it
relies on the assumption that an IPI will result in a core sync. On x86,
this may be true in practice, but it's not architecturally reliable. In
particular, the SDM and APM do not appear to guarantee that interrupt
delivery is serializing. While IRET does serialize, IPI return can
schedule, thereby switching to another task in the same mm that was
sleeping in a syscall. The new task could then SYSRET back to usermode
without ever executing IRET.
Make this more robust by explicitly calling sync_core_before_usermode()
on remote cores. (This also helps people who search the kernel tree for
instances of sync_core() and sync_core_before_usermode() -- one might be
surprised that the core membarrier code doesn't currently show up in a
such a search.)

It seems that most RSEQ membarrier users will expect any stores done before
the membarrier() syscall to be visible to the target task(s). While this
is extremely likely to be true in practice, nothing actually guarantees it
by a strict reading of the x86 manuals. Rather than providing this
guarantee by accident and potentially causing a problem down the road, just
add an explicit barrier.

IRQ time entry is currently accounted before HARDIRQ_OFFSET or
SOFTIRQ_OFFSET are incremented. This is convenient to decide to which
index the cputime to account is dispatched.
Unfortunately it prevents tick_irq_enter() from being called under
HARDIRQ_OFFSET because tick_irq_enter() has to be called before the IRQ
entry accounting due to the necessary clock catch up. As a result we
don't benefit from appropriate lockdep coverage on tick_irq_enter().
To prepare for fixing this, move the IRQ entry cputime accounting after
the preempt offset is incremented. This requires the cputime dispatch
code to handle the extra offset.

At fork time currently, a local node can be allowed to fill completely
and allow the periodic load balancer to fix the problem. This can be
problematic in cases where a task creates lots of threads that idle until
woken as part of a worker poll causing a memory bandwidth problem.
However, a "real" workload suffers badly from this behaviour. The workload
in question is mostly NUMA aware but spawns large numbers of threads
that act as a worker pool that can be called from anywhere. These need
to spread early to get reasonable behaviour.
This patch limits how much a local node can fill before spilling over
to another node and it will not be a universal win. Specifically,
very short-lived workloads that fit within a NUMA node would prefer
the memory bandwidth.
As I cannot describe the "real" workload, the best proxy measure I found
for illustration was a page fault microbenchmark. It's not representative
of the workload but demonstrates the hazard of the current behaviour.

This is showing the time to fault regions belonging to threads. The target
machine has 80 logical CPUs and two nodes. Note the ~30% gain when the
machine is approximately the point where one node becomes fully utilised.
The slower results are borderline noise.
Kernel building shows similar benefits around the same balance point.
Generally performance was either neutral or better in the tests conducted.
The main consideration with this patch is the point where fork stops
spreading a task so some workloads may benefit from different balance
points but it would be a risky tuning parameter.

Currently, an imbalance is only allowed when a destination node
is almost completely idle. This solved one basic class of problems
and was the cautious approach.
This patch revisits the possibility that NUMA nodes can be imbalanced
until 25% of the CPUs are occupied. The reasoning behind 25% is somewhat
superficial -- it's half the cores when HT is enabled. At higher
utilisations, balancing should continue as normal and keep things even
until scheduler domains are fully busy or over utilised.
Note that this is not expected to be a universal win. Any benchmark
that prefers spreading as wide as possible with limited communication
will favour the old behaviour as there is more memory bandwidth.
Workloads that communicate heavily in pairs such as netperf or tbench
benefit. For the tests I ran, the vast majority of workloads saw
a benefit so it seems to be a worthwhile trade-off.

In find_idlest_group(), the load imbalance is only relevant when the group
is either overloaded or fully busy but it is calculated unconditionally.
This patch moves the imbalance calculation to the context it is required.
Technically, it is a micro-optimisation but really the benefit is avoiding
confusing one type of imbalance with another depending on the group_type
in the next patch.
