      sched/deadline: Remove the sysctl_sched_dl knobs · 1724813d
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Remove the deadline specific sysctls for now. The problem with them is
      that the interaction with the exisiting rt knobs is nearly impossible
      to get right.
      
      The current (as per before this patch) situation is that the rt and dl
      bandwidth is completely separate and we enforce rt+dl < 100%. This is
      undesirable because this means that the rt default of 95% leaves us
      hardly any room, even though dl tasks are saver than rt tasks.
      
      Another proposed solution was (a discarted patch) to have the dl
      bandwidth be a fraction of the rt bandwidth. This is highly
      confusing imo.
      
      Furthermore neither proposal is consistent with the situation we
      actually want; which is rt tasks ran from a dl server. In which case
      the rt bandwidth is a direct subset of dl.
      
      So whichever way we go, the introduction of dl controls at this point
      is painful. Therefore remove them and instead share the rt budget.
      
      This means that for now the rt knobs are used for dl admission control
      and the dl runtime is accounted against the rt runtime. I realise that
      this isn't entirely desirable either; but whatever we do we appear to
      need to change the interface later, so better have a small interface
      for now.

      sched/deadline: Fix up the smp-affinity mask tests · e4099a5e
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      For now deadline tasks are not allowed to set smp affinity; however
      the current tests are wrong, cure this.
      
      The test in __sched_setscheduler() also uses an on-stack cpumask_t
      which is a no-no.
      
      Change both tests to use cpumask_subset() such that we test the root
      domain span to be a subset of the cpus_allowed mask. This way we're
      sure the tasks can always run on all CPUs they can be balanced over,
      and have no effective affinity constraints.

      sched/deadline: speed up SCHED_DEADLINE pushes with a push-heap · 6bfd6d72
      Juri Lelli authored
      Data from tests confirmed that the original active load balancing
      logic didn't scale neither in the number of CPU nor in the number of
      tasks (as sched_rt does).
      
      Here we provide a global data structure to keep track of deadlines
      of the running tasks in the system. The structure is composed by
      a bitmask showing the free CPUs and a max-heap, needed when the system
      is heavily loaded.
      
      The implementation and concurrent access scheme are kept simple by
      design. However, our measurements show that we can compete with sched_rt
      on large multi-CPUs machines [1].
      
      Only the push path is addressed, the extension to use this structure
      also for pull decisions is straightforward. However, we are currently
      evaluating different (in order to decrease/avoid contention) data
      structures to solve possibly both problems. We are also going to re-run
      tests considering recent changes inside cpupri [2].

      sched/deadline: Add bandwidth management for SCHED_DEADLINE tasks · 332ac17e
      Dario Faggioli authored
      In order of deadline scheduling to be effective and useful, it is
      important that some method of having the allocation of the available
      CPU bandwidth to tasks and task groups under control.
      This is usually called "admission control" and if it is not performed
      at all, no guarantee can be given on the actual scheduling of the
      -deadline tasks.
      
      Since when RT-throttling has been introduced each task group have a
      bandwidth associated to itself, calculated as a certain amount of
      runtime over a period. Moreover, to make it possible to manipulate
      such bandwidth, readable/writable controls have been added to both
      procfs (for system wide settings) and cgroupfs (for per-group
      settings).
      
      Therefore, the same interface is being used for controlling the
      bandwidth distrubution to -deadline tasks and task groups, i.e.,
      new controls but with similar names, equivalent meaning and with
      the same usage paradigm are added.
      
      However, more discussion is needed in order to figure out how
      we want to manage SCHED_DEADLINE bandwidth at the task group level.
      Therefore, this patch adds a less sophisticated, but actually
      very sensible, mechanism to ensure that a certain utilization
      cap is not overcome per each root_domain (the single rq for !SMP
      configurations).
      
      Another main difference between deadline bandwidth management and
      RT-throttling is that -deadline tasks have bandwidth on their own
      (while -rt ones doesn't!), and thus we don't need an higher level
      throttling mechanism to enforce the desired bandwidth.
      
      This patch, therefore:
      
       - adds system wide deadline bandwidth management by means of:
          * /proc/sys/kernel/sched_dl_runtime_us,
          * /proc/sys/kernel/sched_dl_period_us,
         that determine (i.e., runtime / period) the total bandwidth
         available on each CPU of each root_domain for -deadline tasks;
      
       - couples the RT and deadline bandwidth management, i.e., enforces
         that the sum of how much bandwidth is being devoted to -rt
         -deadline tasks to stay below 100%.
      
      This means that, for a root_domain comprising M CPUs, -deadline tasks
      can be created until the sum of their bandwidths stay below:
      
          M * (sched_dl_runtime_us / sched_dl_period_us)
      
      It is also possible to disable this bandwidth management logic, and
      be thus free of oversubscribing the system up to any arbitrary level.

      sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE inheritance logic · 2d3d891d
      Dario Faggioli authored
      Some method to deal with rt-mutexes and make sched_dl interact with
      the current PI-coded is needed, raising all but trivial issues, that
      needs (according to us) to be solved with some restructuring of
      the pi-code (i.e., going toward a proxy execution-ish implementation).
      
      This is under development, in the meanwhile, as a temporary solution,
      what this commits does is:
      
       - ensure a pi-lock owner with waiters is never throttled down. Instead,
         when it runs out of runtime, it immediately gets replenished and it's
         deadline is postponed;
      
       - the scheduling parameters (relative deadline and default runtime)
         used for that replenishments --during the whole period it holds the
         pi-lock-- are the ones of the waiting task with earliest deadline.
      
      Acting this way, we provide some kind of boosting to the lock-owner,
      still by using the existing (actually, slightly modified by the previous
      commit) pi-architecture.
      
      We would stress the fact that this is only a surely needed, all but
      clean solution to the problem. In the end it's only a way to re-start
      discussion within the community. So, as always, comments, ideas, rants,
      etc.. are welcome! :-)

      rtmutex: Turn the plist into an rb-tree · fb00aca4
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Turn the pi-chains from plist to rb-tree, in the rt_mutex code,
      and provide a proper comparison function for -deadline and
      -priority tasks.
      
      This is done mainly because:
       - classical prio field of the plist is just an int, which might
         not be enough for representing a deadline;
       - manipulating such a list would become O(nr_deadline_tasks),
         which might be to much, as the number of -deadline task increases.
      
      Therefore, an rb-tree is used, and tasks are queued in it according
      to the following logic:
       - among two -priority (i.e., SCHED_BATCH/OTHER/RR/FIFO) tasks, the
         one with the higher (lower, actually!) prio wins;
       - among a -priority and a -deadline task, the latter always wins;
       - among two -deadline tasks, the one with the earliest deadline
         wins.
      
      Queueing and dequeueing functions are changed accordingly, for both
      the list of a task's pi-waiters and the list of tasks blocked on
      a pi-lock.

      sched/deadline: Add latency tracing for SCHED_DEADLINE tasks · af6ace76
      Dario Faggioli authored
      It is very likely that systems that wants/needs to use the new
      SCHED_DEADLINE policy also want to have the scheduling latency of
      the -deadline tasks under control.
      
      For this reason a new version of the scheduling wakeup latency,
      called "wakeup_dl", is introduced.
      
      As a consequence of applying this patch there will be three wakeup
      latency tracer:
      
       * "wakeup", that deals with all tasks in the system;
       * "wakeup_rt", that deals with -rt and -deadline tasks only;
       * "wakeup_dl", that deals with -deadline tasks only.

      sched/deadline: Add period support for SCHED_DEADLINE tasks · 755378a4
      Harald Gustafsson authored
      Make it possible to specify a period (different or equal than
      deadline) for -deadline tasks. Relative deadlines (D_i) are used on
      task arrivals to generate new scheduling (absolute) deadlines as "d =
      t + D_i", and periods (P_i) to postpone the scheduling deadlines as "d
      = d + P_i" when the budget is zero.
      
      This is in general useful to model (and schedule) tasks that have slow
      activation rates (long periods), but have to be scheduled soon once
      activated (short deadlines).

      sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE SMP-related data structures & logic · 1baca4ce
      Juri Lelli authored
      Introduces data structures relevant for implementing dynamic
      migration of -deadline tasks and the logic for checking if
      runqueues are overloaded with -deadline tasks and for choosing
      where a task should migrate, when it is the case.
      
      Adds also dynamic migrations to SCHED_DEADLINE, so that tasks can
      be moved among CPUs when necessary. It is also possible to bind a
      task to a (set of) CPU(s), thus restricting its capability of
      migrating, or forbidding migrations at all.
      
      The very same approach used in sched_rt is utilised:
       - -deadline tasks are kept into CPU-specific runqueues,
       - -deadline tasks are migrated among runqueues to achieve the
         following:
          * on an M-CPU system the M earliest deadline ready tasks
            are always running;
          * affinity/cpusets settings of all the -deadline tasks is
            always respected.
      
      Therefore, this very special form of "load balancing" is done with
      an active method, i.e., the scheduler pushes or pulls tasks between
      runqueues when they are woken up and/or (de)scheduled.
      IOW, every time a preemption occurs, the descheduled task might be sent
      to some other CPU (depending on its deadline) to continue executing
      (push). On the other hand, every time a CPU becomes idle, it might pull
      the second earliest deadline ready task from some other CPU.
      
      To enforce this, a pull operation is always attempted before taking any
      scheduling decision (pre_schedule()), as well as a push one after each
      scheduling decision (post_schedule()). In addition, when a task arrives
      or wakes up, the best CPU where to resume it is selected taking into
      account its affinity mask, the system topology, but also its deadline.
      E.g., from the scheduling point of view, the best CPU where to wake
      up (and also where to push) a task is the one which is running the task
      with the latest deadline among the M executing ones.
      
      In order to facilitate these decisions, per-runqueue "caching" of the
      deadlines of the currently running and of the first ready task is used.
      Queued but not running tasks are also parked in another rb-tree to
      speed-up pushes.

      sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE structures & implementation · aab03e05
      Dario Faggioli authored
      Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for
      SCHED_DEADLINE implementation.
      
      Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their
      initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy
      are also added where they are needed.
      
      Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called
      SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline
      First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called
      Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate
      the behaviour of tasks between each other.
      
      The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase
      (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The
      expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's
      runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed
      is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline
      is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an
      instance) activates plus the relative deadline.
      
      The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute
      deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each
      task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline
      length time interval, avoiding any interference between different
      tasks (bandwidth isolation).
      Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with
      the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new
      policy.
      
      To summarize, this patch:
       - introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed;
       - implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new
         scheduling class file;
       - provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and
         the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl
         and the other existing scheduling classes.

      sched: Add new scheduler syscalls to support an extended scheduling parameters ABI · d50dde5a
      Dario Faggioli authored
      Add the syscalls needed for supporting scheduling algorithms
      with extended scheduling parameters (e.g., SCHED_DEADLINE).
      
      In general, it makes possible to specify a periodic/sporadic task,
      that executes for a given amount of runtime at each instance, and is
      scheduled according to the urgency of their own timing constraints,
      i.e.:
      
       - a (maximum/typical) instance execution time,
       - a minimum interval between consecutive instances,
       - a time constraint by which each instance must be completed.
      
      Thus, both the data structure that holds the scheduling parameters of
      the tasks and the system calls dealing with it must be extended.
      Unfortunately, modifying the existing struct sched_param would break
      the ABI and result in potentially serious compatibility issues with
      legacy binaries.
      
      For these reasons, this patch:
      
       - defines the new struct sched_attr, containing all the fields
         that are necessary for specifying a task in the computational
         model described above;
      
       - defines and implements the new scheduling related syscalls that
         manipulate it, i.e., sched_setattr() and sched_getattr().
      
      Syscalls are introduced for x86 (32 and 64 bits) and ARM only, as a
      proof of concept and for developing and testing purposes. Making them
      available on other architectures is straightforward.
      
      Since no "user" for these new parameters is introduced in this patch,
      the implementation of the new system calls is just identical to their
      already existing counterpart. Future patches that implement scheduling
      policies able to exploit the new data structure must also take care of
      modifying the sched_*attr() calls accordingly with their own purposes.

      sched: Calculate effective load even if local weight is 0 · 9722c2da
      Rik van Riel authored
      Thomas Hellstrom bisected a regression where erratic 3D performance is
      experienced on virtual machines as measured by glxgears. It identified
      commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA
      node") as the problem which had modified the behaviour of effective_load.
      
      Effective load calculates the difference to the system-wide load if a
      scheduling entity was moved to another CPU. The task group is not heavier
      as a result of the move but overall system load can increase/decrease as a
      result of the change. Commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs
      on a preferred NUMA node") changed effective_load to make it suitable for
      calculating if a particular NUMA node was compute overloaded. To reduce
      the cost of the function, it assumed that a current sched entity weight
      of 0 was uninteresting but that is not the case.
      
      wake_affine() uses a weight of 0 for sync wakeups on the grounds that it
      is assuming the waking task will sleep and not contribute to load in the
      near future. In this case, we still want to calculate the effective load
      of the sched entity hierarchy. As effective_load is no longer used by
      task_numa_compare since commit fb13c7ee (sched/numa: Use a system-wide
      search to find swap/migration candidates), this patch simply restores the
      historical behaviour.

        I'm sending this because Jason Wang's fixes are pretty important
      
         1) Add missing per-cpu stats initialization to ip6_vti.  Otherwise
            lockdep spits out a call trace.  From Li RongQing.

            Daniel Borkmann
      
         5) Fix lifetime of ipv6 loopback and SIT tunnel addresses, otherwise
            they basically timeout immediately.  From Hannes Frederic Sowa
      
         6) Fix DMA unmapping of TSO packets in bnx2x driver, from Michal
            Schmidt
      
         7) Do not allow L2 forwarding offload via macvtap device, the way
            things are now it will not end up being forwaded at all.  From
            Jason Wang
      
         8) Fix transmit queue selection via ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(), fixing
            things like applying NETIF_F_LLTX to the wrong device (!!) and
            eliding the proper transmit watchdog handling

      It can be a problem when a pattern is loaded via the firmware interface.
      LP55xx common driver has already locked the mutex in 'lp55xx_firmware_loaded()'.
      So it should be deleted.
      
      On the other hand, locks are required in store_engine_load()
      on updating program memory.

      net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwarding · f663dd9a
      Jason Wang authored
      Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
      will cause several issues:
      
      - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
        instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
        lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
        control path.
      - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
        watchdog.
      - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
        when tso is disabled for lower device.
      
      Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
      selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
      extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
      forwarding transmission.
      
      With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
      to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
      a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
      dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.
      
      In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
      provides a necessary synchronization method.

      macvlan: forbid L2 fowarding offload for macvtap · b13ba1b8
      Jason Wang authored
      L2 fowarding offload will bypass the rx handler of real device. This will make

      bnx2x: fix DMA unmapping of TSO split BDs · 95e92fd4
      Michal Schmidt authored
      bnx2x triggers warnings with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y:
      
        WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2253 at lib/dma-debug.c:887 check_unmap+0xf8/0x920()
        bnx2x 0000:28:00.0: DMA-API: device driver frees DMA memory with

        [unmap size=66 bytes]
      
      The reason is that bnx2x splits a TSO BD into two BDs (headers + data)
      using one DMA mapping for both, but it uses only the length of the first
      BD when unmapping.
      
      This patch fixes the bug by unmapping the whole length of the two BDs.

      Hannes Frederic Sowa authored
      In the past the IFA_PERMANENT flag indicated, that the valid and preferred
      lifetime where ignored. Since change fad8da3e ("ipv6 addrconf: fix
      preferred lifetime state-changing behavior while valid_lft is infinity")
      we honour at least the preferred lifetime on those addresses. As such
      the valid lifetime gets recalculated and updated to 0.
      
      If loopback address is added manually this problem does not occur.
      Also if NetworkManager manages IPv6, those addresses will get added via
      inet6_rtm_newaddr and thus will have a correct lifetime, too.

      bnx2x: prevent WARN during driver unload · 9a2620c8
      Yuval Mintz authored
      Starting with commit 80c33ddd "net: add might_sleep() call to napi_disable"
      bnx2x fails the might_sleep tests causing a stack trace to appear whenever
      the driver is unloaded, as local_bh_disable() is being called before
      napi_disable().
      
      This changes the locking schematics related to CONFIG_NET_RX_BUSY_POLL,
      preventing the need for calling local_bh_disable() and thus eliminating
      the issue.

      parisc: Ensure full cache coherency for kmap/kunmap · f8dae006
      John David Anglin authored
      Helge Deller noted a few weeks ago problems with the AIO support on
      parisc. This change is the result of numerous iterations on how best to
      deal with this problem.
      
      The solution adopted here is to provide full cache coherency in a
      uniform manner on all parisc systems. This involves calling
      flush_dcache_page() on kmap operations and flush_kernel_dcache_page() on
      kunmap operations. As a result, the copy_user_page() and
      clear_user_page() functions can be removed and the overall code is
      simpler.
      
      The change ensures that both userspace and kernel aliases to a mapped
      page are invalidated and flushed. This is necessary for the correct
      operation of PA8800 and PA8900 based systems which do not support
      inequivalent aliases.
      
      With this change, I have observed no cache related issues on c8000 and
      rp3440. It is now possible for example to do kernel builds with "-j64"
      on four way systems.
      
      On systems using XFS file systems, the patch recently posted by Mikulas
      Patocka to "fix crash using XFS on loopback" is needed to avoid a hang
      caused by an uninitialized lock passed to flush_dcache_page() in the
      page struct.
