2022-02-16sched/isolation: Fix housekeeping_mask memory leakFrederic Weisbecker
If "nohz_full=" or "isolcpus=nohz" are called with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=n, housekeeping_mask doesn't get freed despite it being unused if housekeeping_setup() is called for the first time. Check this scenario first to fix this, so that no useless allocation is performed.

2022-02-16psi: fix possible trigger missing in the windowZhaoyang Huang
When a new threshold breaching stall happens after a psi event was generated and within the window duration, the new event is not generated because the events are rate-limited to one per window. If after that no new stall is recorded then the event will not be generated even after rate-limiting duration has passed. This is happening because with no new stall, window_update will not be called even though threshold was previously breached. To fix this, record threshold breaching occurrence and generate the event once window duration is passed.

2022-02-16sched/numa: Avoid migrating task to CPU-less nodeHuang Ying
In a typical memory tiering system, there's no CPU in slow (PMEM) NUMA nodes. But if the number of the hint page faults on a PMEM node is the max for a task, The current NUMA balancing policy may try to place the task on the PMEM node instead of DRAM node. This is unreasonable, because there's no CPU in PMEM NUMA nodes. To fix this, CPU-less nodes are ignored when searching the migration target node for a task in this patch. To test the patch, we run a workload that accesses more memory in PMEM node than memory in DRAM node. Without the patch, the PMEM node will be chosen as preferred node in task_numa_placement(). While the DRAM node will be chosen instead with the patch.

2022-02-16sched/numa: Fix NUMA topology for systems with CPU-less nodesHuang Ying
The NUMA topology parameters (sched_numa_topology_type, sched_domains_numa_levels, and sched_max_numa_distance, etc.) identified by scheduler may be wrong for systems with CPU-less nodes. For example, the ACPI SLIT of a system with CPU-less persistent memory (Intel Optane DCPMM) nodes is as follows, [000h 0000 4] Signature : "SLIT" [System Locality Information Table] [004h 0004 4] Table Length : 0000042C [008h 0008 1] Revision : 01 [009h 0009 1] Checksum : 59 [00Ah 0010 6] Oem ID : "XXXX" [010h 0016 8] Oem Table ID : "XXXXXXX" [018h 0024 4] Oem Revision : 00000001 [01Ch 0028 4] Asl Compiler ID : "INTL" [020h 0032 4] Asl Compiler Revision : 20091013 [024h 0036 8] Localities : 0000000000000004 [02Ch 0044 4] Locality 0 : 0A 15 11 1C [030h 0048 4] Locality 1 : 15 0A 1C 11 [034h 0052 4] Locality 2 : 11 1C 0A 1C [038h 0056 4] Locality 3 : 1C 11 1C 0A While the `numactl -H` output is as follows, available: 4 nodes (0-3) node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 node 0 size: 64136 MB node 0 free: 5981 MB node 1 cpus: 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 node 1 size: 64466 MB node 1 free: 10415 MB node 2 cpus: node 2 size: 253952 MB node 2 free: 253920 MB node 3 cpus: node 3 size: 253952 MB node 3 free: 253951 MB node distances: node 0 1 2 3 0: 10 21 17 28 1: 21 10 28 17 2: 17 28 10 28 3: 28 17 28 10 In this system, there are only 2 sockets. In each memory controller, both DRAM and PMEM DIMMs are installed. Although the physical NUMA topology is simple, the logical NUMA topology becomes a little complex. Because both the distance(0, 1) and distance (1, 3) are less than the distance (0, 3), it appears that node 1 sits between node 0 and node 3. And the whole system appears to be a glueless mesh NUMA topology type. But it's definitely not, there is even no CPU in node 3. This isn't a practical problem now yet. Because the PMEM nodes (node 2 and node 3 in example system) are offlined by default during system boot. So init_numa_topology_type() called during system boot will ignore them and set sched_numa_topology_type to NUMA_DIRECT. And init_numa_topology_type() is only called at runtime when a CPU of a never-onlined-before node gets plugged in. And there's no CPU in the PMEM nodes. But it appears better to fix this to make the code more robust. To test the potential problem. We have used a debug patch to call init_numa_topology_type() when the PMEM node is onlined (in __set_migration_target_nodes()). With that, the NUMA parameters identified by scheduler is as follows, sched_numa_topology_type: NUMA_GLUELESS_MESH sched_domains_numa_levels: 4 sched_max_numa_distance: 28 To fix the issue, the CPU-less nodes are ignored when the NUMA topology parameters are identified. Because a node may become CPU-less or not at run time because of CPU hotplug, the NUMA topology parameters need to be re-initialized at runtime for CPU hotplug too. With the patch, the NUMA parameters identified for the example system above is as follows, sched_numa_topology_type: NUMA_DIRECT sched_domains_numa_levels: 2 sched_max_numa_distance: 21 Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: "Huang, Ying" <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220214121553.582248-1-ying.huang@intel.com
2022-02-16sched: replace cpumask_weight with cpumask_empty where appropriateYury Norov
In some places, kernel/sched code calls cpumask_weight() to check if any bit of a given cpumask is set. We can do it more efficiently with cpumask_empty() because cpumask_empty() stops traversing the cpumask as soon as it finds first set bit, while cpumask_weight() counts all bits unconditionally.

2022-02-11sched/fair: Adjust the allowed NUMA imbalance when SD_NUMA spans multiple LLCsMel Gorman
Commit 7d2b5dd0bcc4 ("sched/numa: Allow a floating imbalance between NUMA nodes") allowed an imbalance between NUMA nodes such that communicating tasks would not be pulled apart by the load balancer. This works fine when there is a 1:1 relationship between LLC and node but can be suboptimal for multiple LLCs if independent tasks prematurely use CPUs sharing cache. Zen* has multiple LLCs per node with local memory channels and due to the allowed imbalance, it's far harder to tune some workloads to run optimally than it is on hardware that has 1 LLC per node. This patch allows an imbalance to exist up to the point where LLCs should be balanced between nodes. On a Zen3 machine running STREAM parallelised with OMP to have on instance per LLC the results and without binding, the results are 5.17.0-rc0 5.17.0-rc0 vanilla sched-numaimb-v6 MB/sec copy-16 162596.94 ( 0.00%) 580559.74 ( 257.05%) MB/sec scale-16 136901.28 ( 0.00%) 374450.52 ( 173.52%) MB/sec add-16 157300.70 ( 0.00%) 564113.76 ( 258.62%) MB/sec triad-16 151446.88 ( 0.00%) 564304.24 ( 272.61%) STREAM can use directives to force the spread if the OpenMP is new enough but that doesn't help if an application uses threads and it's not known in advance how many threads will be created. Coremark is a CPU and cache intensive benchmark parallelised with threads. When running with 1 thread per core, the vanilla kernel allows threads to contend on cache.

2022-02-06sched/fair: Fix fault in reweight_entityTadeusz Struk
Syzbot found a GPF in reweight_entity. This has been bisected to commit 4ef0c5c6b5ba ("kernel/sched: Fix sched_fork() access an invalid sched_task_group") There is a race between sched_post_fork() and setpriority(PRIO_PGRP) within a thread group that causes a null-ptr-deref in reweight_entity() in CFS. The scenario is that the main process spawns number of new threads, which then call setpriority(PRIO_PGRP, 0, -20), wait, and exit. For each of the new threads the copy_process() gets invoked, which adds the new task_struct and calls sched_post_fork() for it. In the above scenario there is a possibility that setpriority(PRIO_PGRP) and set_one_prio() will be called for a thread in the group that is just being created by copy_process(), and for which the sched_post_fork() has not been executed yet. This will trigger a null pointer dereference in reweight_entity(), as it will try to access the run queue pointer, which hasn't been set. Before the mentioned change the cfs_rq pointer for the task has been set in sched_fork(), which is called much earlier in copy_process(), before the new task is added to the thread_group. Now it is done in the sched_post_fork(), which is called after that. To fix the issue the remove the update_load param from the update_load param() function and call reweight_task() only if the task flag doesn't have the TASK_NEW flag set.

An io heavy task that is capped by uclamp_max could still request higher frequency because sugov_iowait_apply() doesn't clamp the boost via uclamp_rq_util_with() like effective_cpu_util() does. Make sure that iowait_boost honours uclamp requests by calling uclamp_rq_util_with() when applying the boost.

2022-01-27sched/sugov: Ignore 'busy' filter when rq is capped by uclamp_maxQais Yousef
sugov_update_single_{freq, perf}() contains a 'busy' filter that ensures we don't bring the frqeuency down if there's no idle time (CPU is busy). The problem is that with uclamp_max we will have scenarios where a busy task is capped to run at a lower frequency and this filter prevents applying the capping when this task starts running. We handle this by skipping the filter when uclamp is enabled and the rq is being capped by uclamp_max. We introduce a new function uclamp_rq_is_capped() to help detecting when this capping is taking effect. Some code shuffling was required to allow using cpu_util_{cfs, rt}() in this new function. On 2 Core SMT2 Intel laptop I see: Without this patch: uclampset -M 0 sysbench --test=cpu --threads = 4 run produces a score of ~3200 consistently. Which is the highest possible. Compiling the kernel also results in frequency running at max 3.1GHz all the time - running uclampset -M 400 to cap it has no effect without this patch. With this patch: uclampset -M 0 sysbench --test=cpu --threads = 4 run produces a score of ~1100 with some outliers in ~1700. Uclamp max aggregates the performance requirements, so having high values sometimes is expected if some other task happens to require that frequency starts running at the same time. When compiling the kernel with uclampset -M 400 I can see the frequencies mostly in the ~2GHz region. Helpful to conserve power and prevent heating when not plugged in.

2022-01-25sched/membarrier: Fix membarrier-rseq fence command missing from query bitmaskMathieu Desnoyers
The membarrier command MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY allows querying the available membarrier commands. When the membarrier-rseq fence commands were added, a new MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK was introduced with the intent to expose them with the MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY command, the but it was never added to MEMBARRIER_CMD_BITMASK. The membarrier-rseq fence commands are therefore not wired up with the query command. Rename MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK to MEMBARRIER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK (the bitmask is not a command per-se), and change the erroneous MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK (which does not actually exist) to MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ. Wire up MEMBARRIER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK in MEMBARRIER_CMD_BITMASK. Fixing this allows discovering availability of the membarrier-rseq fence feature.

2022-01-18sched/core: Accounting forceidle time for all tasks except idle taskCruz Zhao
There are two types of forced idle time: forced idle time from cookie'd task and forced idle time form uncookie'd task. The forced idle time from uncookie'd task is actually caused by the cookie'd task in runqueue indirectly, and it's more accurate to measure the capacity loss with the sum of both. Assuming cpu x and cpu y are a pair of SMT siblings, consider the following scenarios: 1.There's a cookie'd task running on cpu x, and there're 4 uncookie'd tasks running on cpu y. For cpu x, there will be 80% forced idle time (from uncookie'd task); for cpu y, there will be 20% forced idle time (from cookie'd task). 2.There's a uncookie'd task running on cpu x, and there're 4 cookie'd tasks running on cpu y. For cpu x, there will be 80% forced idle time (from cookie'd task); for cpu y, there will be 20% forced idle time (from uncookie'd task). The scenario1 can recurrent by stress-ng(scenario2 can recurrent similary): (cookie'd)taskset -c x stress-ng -c 1 -l 100 (uncookie'd)taskset -c y stress-ng -c 4 -l 100 In the above two scenarios, the total capacity loss is 1 cpu, but in scenario1, the cookie'd forced idle time tells us 20% cpu capacity loss, in scenario2, the cookie'd forced idle time tells us 80% cpu capacity loss, which are not accurate. It'll be more accurate to measure with cookie'd forced idle time and uncookie'd forced idle time.

2022-01-18psi: Fix uaf issue when psi trigger is destroyed while being polledSuren Baghdasaryan
With write operation on psi files replacing old trigger with a new one, the lifetime of its waitqueue is totally arbitrary. Overwriting an existing trigger causes its waitqueue to be freed and pending poll() will stumble on trigger->event_wait which was destroyed. Fix this by disallowing to redefine an existing psi trigger. If a write operation is used on a file descriptor with an already existing psi trigger, the operation will fail with EBUSY error. Also bypass a check for psi_disabled in the psi_trigger_destroy as the flag can be flipped after the trigger is created, leading to a memory leak.

Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task are the big successes for dead code removal this round. A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes they were fixing. There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some rebasing. Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed.

2022-01-08kthread: Generalize pf_io_worker so it can point to struct kthreadEric W. Biederman
The point of using set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer was that it already did what is necessary. There are now restrictions on when set_child_tid can be initialized and when set_child_tid can be used in schedule_tail. Which indicates that continuing to use set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer is a bad idea. Instead of continuing to use the set_child_tid field of task_struct generalize the pf_io_worker field of task_struct and use it to hold the kthread pointer. Rename pf_io_worker (which is a void * pointer) to worker_private so it can be used to store kthreads struct kthread pointer. Update the kthread code to store the kthread pointer in the worker_private field. Remove the places where set_child_tid had to be dealt with carefully because kthreads also used it.

2021-12-22kthread: Never put_user the set_child_tid addressEric W. Biederman
Kernel threads abuse set_child_tid. Historically that has been fine as set_child_tid was initialized after the kernel thread had been forked. Unfortunately storing struct kthread in set_child_tid after the thread is running makes struct kthread being unusable for storing result codes of the thread. When set_child_tid is set to struct kthread during fork that results in schedule_tail writing the thread id to the beggining of struct kthread (if put_user does not realize it is a kernel address). Solve this by skipping the put_user for all kthreads. Reported-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/YcNsG0Lp94V13whH@archlinux-ax161 Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2021-12-13kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for all kthreadsEric W. Biederman
Today the rules are a bit iffy and arbitrary about which kernel threads have struct kthread present. Both idle threads and thread started with create_kthread want struct kthread present so that is effectively all kernel threads. Make the rule that if PF_KTHREAD and the task is running then struct kthread is present. This will allow the kernel thread code to using tsk->exit_code with different semantics from ordinary processes. To make ensure that struct kthread is present for all kernel threads move it's allocation into copy_process. Add a deallocation of struct kthread in exec for processes that were kernel threads. Move the allocation of struct kthread for the initial thread earlier so that it is not repeated for each additional idle thread. Move the initialization of struct kthread into set_kthread_struct so that the structure is always and reliably initailized. Clear set_child_tid in free_kthread_struct to ensure the kthread struct is reliably freed during exec. The function free_kthread_struct does not need to clear vfork_done during exec as exec_mm_release called from exec_mmap has already cleared vfork_done. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2021-12-11sched/fair: Replace CFS internal cpu_util() with cpu_util_cfs()Dietmar Eggemann
cpu_util_cfs() was created by commit d4edd662ac16 ("sched/cpufreq: Use the DEADLINE utilization signal") to enable the access to CPU utilization from the Schedutil CPUfreq governor. Commit a07630b8b2c1 ("sched/cpufreq/schedutil: Use util_est for OPP selection") added util_est support later. The only thing cpu_util() is doing on top of what cpu_util_cfs() already does is to clamp the return value to the [0..capacity_orig] capacity range of the CPU. Integrating this into cpu_util_cfs() is not harming the existing users (Schedutil and CPUfreq cooling (latter via sched_cpu_util() wrapper)). For straightforwardness, prefer to keep using `int cpu` as the function parameter over using `struct rq *rq` which might avoid some calls to cpu_rq(cpu) -> per_cpu(runqueues, cpu) -> RELOC_HIDE(). Update cfs_util()'s documentation and reuse it for cpu_util_cfs(). Remove cpu_util().

2021-12-09sched, kcsan: Enable memory barrier instrumentationMarco Elver
There's no fundamental reason to disable KCSAN for scheduler code, except for excessive noise and performance concerns (instrumenting scheduler code is usually a good way to stress test KCSAN itself). However, several core sched functions imply memory barriers that are invisible to KCSAN without instrumentation, but are required to avoid false positives. Therefore, unconditionally enable instrumentation of memory barriers in scheduler code. Also update the comment to reflect this and be a bit more brief.

2021-12-09wait: add wake_up_pollfree()Eric Biggers
Several ->poll() implementations are special in that they use a waitqueue whose lifetime is the current task, rather than the struct file as is normally the case. This is okay for blocking polls, since a blocking poll occurs within one task; however, non-blocking polls require another solution. This solution is for the queue to be cleared before it is freed, using 'wake_up_poll(wq, EPOLLHUP | POLLFREE);'. However, that has a bug: wake_up_poll() calls __wake_up() with nr_exclusive=1. Therefore, if there are multiple "exclusive" waiters, and the wakeup function for the first one returns a positive value, only that one will be called. That's *not* what's needed for POLLFREE; POLLFREE is special in that it really needs to wake up everyone. Considering the three non-blocking poll systems: - io_uring poll doesn't handle POLLFREE at all, so it is broken anyway. - aio poll is unaffected, since it doesn't support exclusive waits. However, that's fragile, as someone could add this feature later. - epoll doesn't appear to be broken by this, since its wakeup function returns 0 when it sees POLLFREE. But this is fragile. Although there is a workaround (see epoll), it's better to define a function which always sends POLLFREE to all waiters. Add such a function. Also make it verify that the queue really becomes empty after all waiters have been woken up.

2021-12-07sched/rt: Try to restart rt period timer when rt runtime exceededLi Hua
When rt_runtime is modified from -1 to a valid control value, it may cause the task to be throttled all the time. Operations like the following will trigger the bug. E.g: 1. echo -1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us 2. Run a FIFO task named A that executes while(1) 3. echo 950000 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us When rt_runtime is -1, The rt period timer will not be activated when task A enqueued. And then the task will be throttled after setting rt_runtime to 950,000. The task will always be throttled because the rt period timer is not activated.

All People I know including myself took a long time to figure out that typical wakeup will always go to fast path and never go to slow path except WF_FORK and WF_EXEC. Vincent reminded me once in a linaro meeting and made me understand slow path won't happen for WF_TTWU. But my other friends repeatedly wasted a lot of time on testing this path like me before I reminded them. So obviously the code needs some document.
