This patch implements a more theoretically sound algorithm for tracking active utilization: instead of decreasing it when a task blocks, use a timer (the "inactive timer", named after the "Inactive" task state of the GRUB algorithm) to decrease the active utilization at the so called "0-lag time".

Luca Abeni authored
Active utilization is defined as the total utilization of active (TASK_RUNNING) tasks queued on a runqueue. Hence, it is increased when a task wakes up and is decreased when a task blocks. When a task is migrated from CPUi to CPUj, immediately subtract the task's utilization from CPUi and add it to CPUj. This mechanism is implemented by modifying the pull and push functions. Note: this is not fully correct from the theoretical point of view (the utilization should be removed from CPUi only at the 0 lag time), a more theoretically sound solution is presented in the next patches.

Hackbench recently suffered a bunch of pain, first by commit: 4c77b18c ("sched/fair: Make select_idle_cpu() more aggressive") and then by commit: c743f0a5 ("sched/fair, cpumask: Export for_each_cpu_wrap()") which fixed a bug in the initial for_each_cpu_wrap() implementation that made select_idle_cpu() even more expensive. The bug was that it would skip over CPUs when bits were consequtive in the bitmask. This however gave me an idea to fix select_idle_cpu(); where the old scheme was a cliff-edge throttle on idle scanning, this introduces a more gradual approach. Instead of stopping to scan entirely, we limit how many CPUs we scan. Initial benchmarks show that it mostly recovers hackbench while not hurting anything else, except Mason's schbench, but not as bad as the old thing. It also appears to recover the tbench high-end, which also suffered like hackbench.

The newly introduced wrapper function only has one caller, and this one is conditional, causing a harmless warning when CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is disabled: arch/x86/kernel/tsc.c:189:13: error: 'set_cyc2ns_scale' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] My first idea was to move the wrapper inside of that #ifdef, but on second thought it seemed nicer to remove it completely again and rename __set_cyc2ns_scale back to set_cyc2ns_scale, but leaving the extra argument.

might_sleep() and smp_processor_id() checks are enabled after the boot process is done. That hides bugs in the SMP bringup and driver initialization code. Enable it right when the scheduler starts working, i.e. when init task and kthreadd have been created and right before the idle task enables preemption.

might_sleep() debugging and smp_processor_id() debugging should be active right after the scheduler starts working. The init task can invoke smp_processor_id() from preemptible context as it is pinned on the boot cpu until sched_smp_init() removes the pinning and lets it schedule on all non isolated cpus. Add a new state which allows to enable those checks earlier and add it to the xen do_poweroff() function. No functional change.

Some of the boot code in init_kernel_freeable() which runs before SMP bringup assumes (rightfully) that it runs on the boot CPU and therefore can use smp_processor_id() in preemptible context. That works so far because the smp_processor_id() check starts to be effective after smp bringup. That's just wrong. Starting with SMP bringup and the ability to move threads around, smp_processor_id() in preemptible context is broken. Aside of that it does not make sense to allow init to run on all CPUs before sched_smp_init() has been run. Pin the init to the boot CPU so the existing code can continue to use smp_processor_id() without triggering the checks when the enabling of those checks starts earlier.

A customer has reported a soft-lockup when running an intensive memory stress test, where the trace on multiple CPU's looks like this: RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810c53fe>] [<ffffffff810c53fe>] native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x10e/0x190 ...

The task_numa_work() function makes sure that only one thread is let to perform the work in a single scan period (via cmpxchg), but if there's a thread with mmap_sem locked for writing for several periods, multiple threads in task_numa_work() can build up a convoy waiting for mmap_sem for read and then all get unblocked at once. This patch changes the down_read() to the trylock version, which prevents the build up. For a workload experiencing mmap_sem contention, it's probably better to postpone the NUMA balancing work anyway. This seems to have fixed the soft lockups involving pmd_lock(), which is in line with the convoy theory.

With CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=y, do_sched_rt_period_timer() sequentially takes each CPU's rq->lock. On a large, busy system, the cumulative time it takes to acquire each lock can be excessive, even triggering a watchdog timeout. If rt_rq->rt_time and rt_rq->rt_nr_running are both zero, this function does nothing while holding the lock, so don't bother taking it at all.

When priority inheritance was added back in 2.6.18 to sched_setscheduler(), it added a path to taking an rt-mutex wait_lock, which is not IRQ safe. As PI is not a common occurrence, lockdep will likely never trigger if sched_setscheduler was called from interrupt context. A BUG_ON() was added to trigger if __sched_setscheduler() was ever called from interrupt context because there was a possibility to take the wait_lock. Today the wait_lock is irq safe, but the path to taking it in sched_setscheduler() is the same as the path to taking it from normal context. The wait_lock is taken with raw_spin_lock_irq() and released with raw_spin_unlock_irq() which will indiscriminately enable interrupts, which would be bad in interrupt context. The problem is that normalize_rt_tasks, which is called by triggering the sysrq nice-all-RT-tasks was changed to call __sched_setscheduler(), and this is done from interrupt context! Now __sched_setscheduler() takes a "pi" parameter that is used to know if the priority inheritance should be called or not. As the BUG_ON() only cares about calling the PI code, it should only bug if called from interrupt context with the "pi" parameter set to true.

pick_next_pushable_dl_task(rq) has BUG_ON(rq->cpu != task_cpu(task)) when it returns a task other than NULL, which means that task_cpu(task) must be rq->cpu. So if task == next_task, then task_cpu(next_task) must be rq->cpu as well. Remove the redundant condition and make the code simpler. This way one unnecessary branch and two LOAD operations can be avoided.

Inter-Processor-Interrupt(IPI) is needed when a page is unmapped and the process' mm_cpumask() shows the process has ever run on other CPUs. page migration, page reclaim all need IPIs. The number of IPI needed to send to different CPUs is especially large for multi-threaded workload since mm_cpumask() is per process. For smp_call_function_many(), whenever a CPU queues a CSD to a target CPU, it will send an IPI to let the target CPU to handle the work. This isn't necessary - we need only send IPI when queueing a CSD to an empty call_single_queue. The reason: flush_smp_call_function_queue() that is called upon a CPU receiving an IPI will empty the queue and then handle all of the CSDs there. So if the target CPU's call_single_queue is not empty, we know that: i. An IPI for the target CPU has already been sent by 'previous queuers'; ii. flush_smp_call_function_queue() hasn't emptied that CPU's queue yet. Thus, it's safe for us to just queue our CSD there without sending an addtional IPI. And for the 'previous queuers', we can limit it to the first queuer. To demonstrate the effect of this patch, a multi-thread workload that spawns 80 threads to equally consume 100G memory is used. This is tested on a 2 node broadwell-EP which has 44cores/88threads and 32G memory. So after 32G memory is used up, page reclaiming starts to happen a lot. With this patch, IPI number dropped 88% and throughput increased about 15% for the above workload.

Prior to the pstore interface refactoring, the "id" generated during a backend pstore_write() was only retained by the internal pstore inode tracking list. Additionally the "part" was ignored, so EFI would encode this in the id. This corrects the misunderstandings and correctly sets "id" during pstore_write(), and uses "part" directly during pstore_erase().
