The RCU iterators used 'rcu_dereference()' on an already-fetched RCU pointer value, which defeats the whole point of the exercise. When we dereference a pointer protected by RCU, we need to make sure that we only fetch the value _once_, because if the compiler ends up re-loading it due to register pressure, the newly reloaded value could be different from the previously fetched one, and you get inconsistent results. Cleaned-up, fixed, and the pointless list_for_each_safe_rcu #define deleted by Paul Kenney. Acked-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Peter Zijlstra authored
In order to level the hierarchy, we need to calculate load based on the root view. That is, each task's load is in the same unit. A / \ B 1 / \ 2 3 To compute 1's load we do: weight(1) -------------- rq_weight(A) To compute 2's load we do: weight(2) weight(B) ------------ * ----------- rq_weight(B) rw_weight(A) This yields load fractions in comparable units. The consequence is that it changes virtual time. We used to have: time_{i} vtime_{i} = ------------ weight_{i} vtime = \Sum vtime_{i} = time / rq_weight. But with the new way of load calculation we get that vtime equals time. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Implement SMP nice support for the full group hierarchy. On each load-balance action, compile a sched_domain wide view of the full task_group tree. We compute the domain wide view when walking down the hierarchy, and readjust the weights when walking back up. After collecting and readjusting the domain wide view, we try to balance the tasks within the task_groups. The current approach is a naively balance each task group until we've moved the targeted amount of load. Inspired by Srivatsa Vaddsgiri's previous code and Abhishek Chandra's H-SMP paper. XXX: there will be some numerical issues due to the limited nature of SCHED_LOAD_SCALE wrt to representing a task_groups influence on the total weight. When the tree is deep enough, or the task weight small enough, we'll run out of bits.

[rebased for sched-devel/latest] - Add a new cpuset file, having levels: sched_relax_domain_level - Modify partition_sched_domains() and build_sched_domains() to take attributes parameter passed from cpuset. - Fill newidle_idx for node domains which currently unused but might be required if sched_relax_domain_level become higher. - We can change the default level by boot option 'relax_domain_level='.

This patch introduces new feature of cpuset - sched domain customization. This version provides a per-cpuset file 'sched_relax_domain_level' that enable us to change the searching range of scheduler, which used to limit how many cpus the scheduler searches at some schedule events, such as wakening task and running out of runqueue.

This patch allows tasks and groups to exist in the same cfs_rq.

Add a new function that accepts a pointer to the "newly allowed cpus" cpumask argument. int set_cpus_allowed_ptr(struct task_struct *p, const cpumask_t *new_mask) The current set_cpus_allowed() function is modified to use the above but this does not result in an ABI change. And with some compiler optimization help, it may not introduce any additional overhead. Additionally, to enforce the read only nature of the new_mask arg, the "const" property is migrated to sub-functions called by set_cpus_allowed. This silences compiler warnings.

Move the setting of nr_cpu_ids from sched_init() to start_kernel() so that it's available as early as possible. Note that an arch has the option of setting it even earlier if need be, but it should not result in a different value than the setup_nr_cpu_ids() function.

* Here is a simple patch to use an allocated array of cpumasks to represent cpumask_of_cpu() instead of constructing one on the stack. It's based on the Kconfig option "HAVE_CPUMASK_OF_CPU_MAP" which is currently only set for x86_64 SMP. Otherwise the the existing cpumask_of_cpu() is used but has been changed to produce an lvalue so a pointer to it can be used. Cc: H.
