The ttwu_post_activation() code does the core wakeup, it sets TASK_RUNNING and performs wakeup-preemption, so give is a more descriptive name. Reviewed-by:

In order to call ttwu_stat() without holding rq->lock we must remove its rq argument. Since we need to change rq stats, account to the local rq instead of the task rq, this is safe since we have IRQs disabled. Reviewed-by:

Peter Zijlstra authored
Currently ttwu() does two rq->lock acquisitions, once on the task's old rq, holding it over the p->state fiddling and load-balance pass. Then it drops the old rq->lock to acquire the new rq->lock. By having serialized ttwu(), p->sched_class, p->cpus_allowed with p->pi_lock, we can now drop the whole first rq->lock acquisition. The p->pi_lock serializing concurrent ttwu() calls protects p->state, which we will set to TASK_WAKING to bridge possible p->pi_lock to rq->lock gaps and serialize set_task_cpu() calls against task_rq_lock(). The p->pi_lock serialization of p->sched_class allows us to call scheduling class methods without holding the rq->lock, and the serialization of p->cpus_allowed allows us to do the load-balancing bits without races.

Since we can now call select_task_rq() and set_task_cpu() with only p->pi_lock held, and sched_exec() load-balancing has always been optimistic, drop all rq->lock usage. Oleg also noted that need_migrate_task() will always be true for current, so don't bother calling that at all. Reviewed-by:

Since p->pi_lock now protects all things needed to call select_task_rq() avoid the double remote rq->lock acquisition and rely on p->pi_lock. Reviewed-by:

Peter Zijlstra authored
In order to be able to call set_task_cpu() while either holding p->pi_lock or task_rq(p)->lock we need to hold both locks in order to stabilize task_rq(). This makes task_rq_lock() acquire both locks, and have __task_rq_lock() validate that p->pi_lock is held. This increases the locking overhead for most scheduler syscalls but allows reduction of rq->lock contention for some scheduler hot paths (ttwu). Reviewed-by:

Since we now serialize ttwu() using p->pi_lock, we also need to serialize ttwu_local() using that, otherwise, once we drop the rq->lock from ttwu() it can race with ttwu_local(). Reviewed-by:

In prepratation of having to call task_contributes_to_load() without holding rq->lock, we need to store the result until we do and can update the rq accounting accordingly. Reviewed-by:

Peter Zijlstra authored
Currently p->pi_lock already serializes p->sched_class, also put p->cpus_allowed and try_to_wake_up() under it, this prepares the way to do the first part of ttwu() without holding rq->lock. By having p->sched_class and p->cpus_allowed serialized by p->pi_lock, we prepare the way to call select_task_rq() without holding rq->lock. Reviewed-by:

Provide a generic p->on_rq because the p->se.on_rq semantics are unfavourable for lockless wakeups but needed for sched_fair. In particular, p->on_rq is only cleared when we actually dequeue the task in schedule() and not on any random dequeue as done by things like __migrate_task() and __sched_setscheduler(). This also allows us to remove p->se usage from !sched_fair code. Reviewed-by:

Collect all ttwu() stat code into a single function and ensure its always called for an actual wakeup (changing p->state to TASK_RUNNING). Reviewed-by:
-
Peter Zijlstra authored
try_to_wake_up() would only return a success when it would have to place a task on a rq, change that to every time we change p->state to TASK_RUNNING, because that's the real measure of wakeups. This results in that success is always true for the tracepoints. Reviewed-by:

Always provide p->on_cpu so that we can determine if its on a cpu without having to lock the rq. Reviewed-by:
-
Peter Zijlstra authored
For future rework of try_to_wake_up() we'd like to push part of that function onto the CPU the task is actually going to run on. In order to do so we need a generic callback from the existing scheduler IPI. This patch introduces such a generic callback: scheduler_ipi() and implements it as a NOP. BenH notes: PowerPC might use this IPI on offline CPUs under rare conditions! Acked-by:

We really only want to unplug the pending IO when the process actually goes to sleep. So move the test for flushing the plug up to the place where we actually deactivate the task - where we have properly checked for preemption and for the process really sleeping. Acked-by:

Commit 982134ba ("mm: avoid wrapping vm_pgoff in mremap()") fixed the case of a expanding mapping causing vm_pgoff wrapping when you used mremap. But there was another case where we expand mappings hiding in plain sight: the automatic stack expansion. This fixes that case too. This one also found by Robert Święcki, using his nasty system call fuzzer tool. Good job. Reported-and-tested-by:

The ATAG_BOARDINFO is intended to hand over the information bd->bi_board_number from u-boot to the kernel. This piece of information can be used to implement some kind of board identification while booting the kernel. Therefore it is placed in .initdata section and can be accessed via the new symbol board_number only while initializing the kernel. Signed-off-by:

platform_get_irq returns -ENXIO on failure, so !int_irq was probably always true. Better use (int)int_irq <= 0. Note that a return value of zero is still handled as error even though this could mean irq0. This is a followup to 305b3228 that changed the return value of platform_get_irq from 0 to -ENXIO on error. Acked-by:

We can delete the code that checks to see if we're sending an ignored signal to init because force_sig_info() already handles this case. force_sig_info() will kill init even if the signal handler is SIG_DFL and the scenario described in the comment where init might "generate the same exception over and over again" cannot occur (force_sig_info() clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE to ensure that init will die). Also, the use of is_global_init() is not correct in the multhreaded case, as Oleg Nesterov explains, "is_global_init() is not right in theory, /sbin/init can be multithreaded. And, this doesn't cover the sub-namespace inits... I'd suggest to check SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, but looking closer I think you can simply remove this code." It seems this code was copied from arch/powerpc in March 2007 in commit 623b0355 "[AVR32] Clean up exception handling code" but the code was deleted from arch/powerpc in November 2009 in commit a0592d42 "powerpc: kill the obsolete code under is_global_init()" So catch up with powerpc and delete the bogus code.
