      sched/topology: Make sched_init_numa() use a set for the deduplicating sort · 620a6dc4
      Valentin Schneider authored
      The deduplicating sort in sched_init_numa() assumes that the first line in
      the distance table contains all unique values in the entire table. I've
      been trying to pen what this exactly means for the topology, but it's not
      straightforward. For instance, topology.c uses this example:
      
        node   0   1   2   3
          0:  10  20  20  30
          1:  20  10  20  20
          2:  20  20  10  20
          3:  30  20  20  10
      
        0 ----- 1
        |     / |
        |   /   |
        | /     |
        2 ----- 3
      
      Which works out just fine. However, if we swap nodes 0 and 1:
      
        1 ----- 0
        |     / |
        |   /   |
        | /     |
        2 ----- 3
      
      we get this distance table:
      
        node   0  1  2  3
          0:  10 20 20 20
          1:  20 10 20 30
          2:  20 20 10 20
          3:  20 30 20 10
      
      Which breaks the deduplicating sort (non-representative first line). In
      this case this would just be a renumbering exercise, but it so happens that
      we can have a deduplicating sort that goes through the whole table in O(n²)
      at the extra cost of a temporary memory allocation (i.e. any form of set).
      
      The ACPI spec (SLIT) mentions distances are encoded on 8 bits. Following
      this, implement the set as a 256-bits bitmap. Should this not be
      satisfactory (i.e. we want to support 32-bit values), then we'll have to go
      for some other sparse set implementation.
      
      This has the added benefit of letting us allocate just the right amount of
      memory for sched_domains_numa_distance[], rather than an arbitrary
      (nr_node_ids + 1).
      
      Note: DT binding equivalent (distance-map) decodes distances as 32-bit
      values.

      sched/eas: Don't update misfit status if the task is pinned · 0ae78eec
      Qais Yousef authored
      If the task is pinned to a cpu, setting the misfit status means that
      we'll unnecessarily continuously attempt to migrate the task but fail.
      
      This continuous failure will cause the balance_interval to increase to
      a high value, and eventually cause unnecessary significant delays in
      balancing the system when real imbalance happens.
      
      Caught while testing uclamp where rt-app calibration loop was pinned to
      cpu 0, shortly after which we spawn another task with high util_clamp
      value. The task was failing to migrate after over 40ms of runtime due to
      balance_interval unnecessary expanded to a very high value from the
      calibration loop.
      
      Not done here, but it could be useful to extend the check for pinning to
      verify that the affinity of the task has a cpu that fits. We could end
      up in a similar situation otherwise.

      Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley:
       "This is a load of driver fixes (12 ufs, 1 mpt3sas, 1 cxgbi).
      
        The big core two fixes are for power management ("block: Do not accept
        any requests while suspended" and "block: Fix a race in the runtime
        power management code") which finally sorts out the resume problems
        we've occasionally been having.
      
        To make the resume fix, there are seven necessary precursors which
        effectively renames REQ_PREEMPT to REQ_PM, so every "special" request
        in block is automatically a power management exempt one.
      
        All of the non-PM preempt cases are removed except for the one in the
        SCSI Parallel Interface (spi) domain validation which is a genuine
        case where we have to run requests at high priority to validate the
        bus so this becomes an autopm get/put protected request"

      depmod: handle the case of /sbin/depmod without /sbin in PATH · cedd1862
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Commit 436e980e ("kbuild: don't hardcode depmod path") stopped
      hard-coding the path of depmod, but in the process caused trouble for
      distributions that had that /sbin location, but didn't have it in the
      PATH (generally because /sbin is limited to the super-user path).
      
      Work around it for now by just adding /sbin to the end of PATH in the
      depmod.sh script.
