      sched: Allow newidle balancing to bail out of load_balance · 792b9f65
      Josh Don authored 
      While doing newidle load balancing, it is possible for new tasks to
arrive, such as with pending wakeups. newidle_balance() already accounts
for this by exiting the sched_domain load_balance() iteration if it
detects these cases. This is very important for minimizing wakeup
latency.

However, if we are already in load_balance(), we may stay there for a
while before returning back to newidle_balance(). This is most
exacerbated if we enter a 'goto redo' loop in the LBF_ALL_PINNED case. A
very straightforward workaround to this is to adjust should_we_balance()
to bail out if we're doing a CPU_NEWLY_IDLE balance and new tasks are
detected.

This was tested with the following reproduction:
- two threads that take turns sleeping and waking each other up are
  affined to two cores
- a large number of threads with 100% utilization are pinned to all
  other cores

Without this patch, wakeup latency was ~120us for the pair of threads,
almost entirely spent in load_balance(). With this patch, wakeup latency
is ~6us.

      sched/deadline: Use proc_douintvec_minmax() limit minimum value · 2ed81e76
      Yajun Deng authored 
      sysctl_sched_dl_period_max and sysctl_sched_dl_period_min are unsigned
integer, but proc_dointvec() wouldn't return error even if we set a
negative number.

Use proc_douintvec_minmax() instead of proc_dointvec(). Add extra1 for
sysctl_sched_dl_period_max and extra2 for sysctl_sched_dl_period_min.

It's just an optimization for match data and proc_handler in struct
ctl_table. The 'if (period < min || period > max)' in __checkparam_dl()
will work fine even if there hasn't this patch.

      sched/fair: Optimize and simplify rq leaf_cfs_rq_list · 51bf903b
      Chengming Zhou authored 
      We notice the rq leaf_cfs_rq_list has two problems when do bugfix
backports and some test profiling.

1. cfs_rqs under throttled subtree could be added to the list, and
   make their fully decayed ancestors on the list, even though not needed.

2. #1 also make the leaf_cfs_rq_list management complex and error prone,
   this is the list of related bugfix so far:

   commit 31bc6aea ("sched/fair: Optimize update_blocked_averages()")
   commit fe61468b ("sched/fair: Fix enqueue_task_fair warning")
   commit b34cb07d ("sched/fair: Fix enqueue_task_fair() warning some more")
   commit 39f23ce0 ("sched/fair: Fix unthrottle_cfs_rq() for leaf_cfs_rq list")
   commit 0258bdfa ("sched/fair: Fix unfairness caused by missing load decay")
   commit a7b359fc ("sched/fair: Correctly insert cfs_rq's to list on unthrottle")
   commit fdaba61e ("sched/fair: Ensure that the CFS parent is added after unthrottling")
   commit 2630cde2 ("sched/fair: Add ancestors of unthrottled undecayed cfs_rq")

commit 31bc6aea ("sched/fair: Optimize update_blocked_averages()")
delete every cfs_rq under throttled subtree from rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list,
and delete the throttled_hierarchy() test in update_blocked_averages(),
which optimized update_blocked_averages().

But those later bugfix add cfs_rqs under throttled subtree back to
rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list again, with their fully decayed ancestors, for
the integrity of rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list.

This patch takes another method, skip all cfs_rqs under throttled
hierarchy when list_add_leaf_cfs_rq(), to completely make cfs_rqs
under throttled subtree off the leaf_cfs_rq_list.

So we don't need to consider throttled related things in
enqueue_entity(), unthrottle_cfs_rq() and enqueue_task_fair(),
which simplify the code a lot. Also optimize update_blocked_averages()
since cfs_rqs under throttled hierarchy and their ancestors
won't be on the leaf_cfs_rq_list.

      sched/fair: Consider CPU affinity when allowing NUMA imbalance in find_idlest_group() · f5b2eeb4
      K Prateek Nayak authored 
      In the case of systems containing multiple LLCs per socket, like
AMD Zen systems, users want to spread bandwidth hungry applications
across multiple LLCs. Stream is one such representative workload where
the best performance is obtained by limiting one stream thread per LLC.
To ensure this, users are known to pin the tasks to a specify a subset
of the CPUs consisting of one CPU per LLC while running such bandwidth
hungry tasks.

Suppose we kickstart a multi-threaded task like stream with 8 threads
using taskset or numactl to run on a subset of CPUs on a 2 socket Zen3
server where each socket contains 128 CPUs
(0-63,128-191 in one socket, 64-127,192-255 in another socket)

Eg: numactl -C 0,16,32,48,64,80,96,112 ./stream8

Here each CPU in the list is from a different LLC and 4 of those LLCs
are on one socket, while the other 4 are on another socket.

Ideally we would prefer that each stream thread runs on a different
CPU from the allowed list of CPUs. However, the current heuristics in
find_idlest_group() do not allow this during the initial placement.

Suppose the first socket (0-63,128-191) is our local group from which
we are kickstarting the stream tasks. The first four stream threads
will be placed in this socket. When it comes to placing the 5th
thread, all the allowed CPUs are from the local group (0,16,32,48)
would have been taken.

However, the current scheduler code simply checks if the number of
tasks in the local group is fewer than the allowed numa-imbalance
threshold. This threshold was previously 25% of the NUMA domain span
(in this case threshold = 32) but after the v6 of Mel's patchset
"Adjust NUMA imbalance for multiple LLCs", got merged in sched-tip,
Commit: e496132e ("sched/fair: Adjust the allowed NUMA imbalance
when SD_NUMA spans multiple LLCs") it is now equal to number of LLCs
in the NUMA domain, for processors with multiple LLCs.
(in this case threshold = 8).

For this example, the number of tasks will always be within threshold
and thus all the 8 stream threads will be woken up on the first socket
thereby resulting in sub-optimal performance.

The following sched_wakeup_new tracepoint output shows the initial
placement of tasks in the current tip/sched/core on the Zen3 machine:

stream-5313    [016] d..2.   627.005036: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=5315 prio=120 target_cpu=032
stream-5313    [016] d..2.   627.005086: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=5316 prio=120 target_cpu=048
stream-5313    [016] d..2.   627.005141: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=5317 prio=120 target_cpu=000
stream-5313    [016] d..2.   627.005183: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=5318 prio=120 target_cpu=016
stream-5313    [016] d..2.   627.005218: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=5319 prio=120 target_cpu=016
stream-5313    [016] d..2.   627.005256: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=5320 prio=120 target_cpu=016
stream-5313    [016] d..2.   627.005295: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=5321 prio=120 target_cpu=016

Once the first four threads are distributed among the allowed CPUs of
socket one, the rest of the treads start piling on these same CPUs
when clearly there are CPUs on the second socket that can be used.

Following the initial pile up on a small number of CPUs, though the
load-balancer eventually kicks in, it takes a while to get to {4}{4}
and even {4}{4} isn't stable as we observe a bunch of ping ponging
between {4}{4} to {5}{3} and back before a stable state is reached
much later (1 Stream thread per allowed CPU) and no more migration is
required.

We can detect this piling and avoid it by checking if the number of
allowed CPUs in the local group are fewer than the number of tasks
running in the local group and use this information to spread the
5th task out into the next socket (after all, the goal in this
slowpath is to find the idlest group and the idlest CPU during the
initial placement!).

The following sched_wakeup_new tracepoint output shows the initial
placement of tasks after adding this fix on the Zen3 machine:

stream-4485    [016] d..2.   230.784046: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=4487 prio=120 target_cpu=032
stream-4485    [016] d..2.   230.784123: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=4488 prio=120 target_cpu=048
stream-4485    [016] d..2.   230.784167: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=4489 prio=120 target_cpu=000
stream-4485    [016] d..2.   230.784222: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=4490 prio=120 target_cpu=112
stream-4485    [016] d..2.   230.784271: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=4491 prio=120 target_cpu=096
stream-4485    [016] d..2.   230.784322: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=4492 prio=120 target_cpu=080
stream-4485    [016] d..2.   230.784368: sched_wakeup_new: comm=stream pid=4493 prio=120 target_cpu=064

We see that threads are using all of the allowed CPUs and there is
no pileup.

No output is generated for tracepoint sched_migrate_task with this
patch due to a perfect initial placement which removes the need
for balancing later on - both across NUMA boundaries and within
NUMA boundaries for stream.

Following are the results from running 8 Stream threads with and
without pinning on a dual socket Zen3 Machine (2 x 64C/128T):

Pinning currently hurts the performance compared to unbound case on
tip/sched/core. With the addition of this patch, we are able to
outperform tip/sched/core by a good margin with pinning.

In case of Icelake machine, with single LLC per socket, pinning across
the two sockets reduces cache contention, thus showing great
improvement in pinned case which is further benefited by this patch.

      sched/numa: Adjust imb_numa_nr to a better approximation of memory channels · 026b98a9
      Mel Gorman authored 
      For a single LLC per node, a NUMA imbalance is allowed up until 25%
of CPUs sharing a node could be active. One intent of the cut-off is
to avoid an imbalance of memory channels but there is no topological
information based on active memory channels. Furthermore, there can
be differences between nodes depending on the number of populated
DIMMs.

A cut-off of 25% was arbitrary but generally worked. It does have a severe
corner cases though when an parallel workload is using 25% of all available
CPUs over-saturates memory channels. This can happen due to the initial
forking of tasks that get pulled more to one node after early wakeups
(e.g. a barrier synchronisation) that is not quickly corrected by the
load balancer. The LB may fail to act quickly as the parallel tasks are
considered to be poor migrate candidates due to locality or cache hotness.

On a range of modern Intel CPUs, 12.5% appears to be a better cut-off
assuming all memory channels are populated and is used as the new cut-off
point. A minimum of 1 is specified to allow a communicating pair to
remain local even for CPUs with low numbers of cores. For modern AMDs,
there are multiple LLCs and are not affected.

      sched/numa: Apply imbalance limitations consistently · cb29a5c1
      Mel Gorman authored 
      The imbalance limitations are applied inconsistently at fork time
and at runtime. At fork, a new task can remain local until there are
too many running tasks even if the degree of imbalance is larger than
NUMA_IMBALANCE_MIN which is different to runtime. Secondly, the imbalance
figure used during load balancing is different to the one used at NUMA
placement. Load balancing uses the number of tasks that must move to
restore imbalance where as NUMA balancing uses the total imbalance.

In combination, it is possible for a parallel workload that uses a small
number of CPUs without applying scheduler policies to have very variable
run-to-run performance.

      If a destination node has spare capacity but there is an imbalance then
two tasks are selected for swapping. If the tasks have no numa group

without having any impact on the compute imbalance. Instead, it's just
punishing one task to help another.

      iov_iter: fix build issue due to possible type mis-match · 1c27f1fc
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Commit 6c776766 ("iov_iter: Fix iter_xarray_get_pages{,_alloc}()")
introduced a problem on some 32-bit architectures (at least arm, xtensa,
csky,sparc and mips), that have a 'size_t' that is 'unsigned int'.

The reason is that we now do

    min(nr * PAGE_SIZE - offset, maxsize);

where 'nr' and 'offset' and both 'unsigned int', and PAGE_SIZE is
'unsigned long'.  As a result, the normal C type rules means that the
first argument to 'min()' ends up being 'unsigned long'.

In contrast, 'maxsize' is of type 'size_t'.

Now, 'size_t' and 'unsigned long' are always the same physical type in
the kernel, so you'd think this doesn't matter, and from an actual
arithmetic standpoint it doesn't.

But on 32-bit architectures 'size_t' is commonly 'unsigned int', even if
it could also be 'unsigned long'.  In that situation, both are unsigned
32-bit types, but they are not the *same* type.

And as a result 'min()' will complain about the distinct types (ignore
the "pointer types" part of the error message: that's an artifact of the
way we have made 'min()' check types for being the same):

  lib/iov_iter.c: In function 'iter_xarray_get_pages':
  include/linux/minmax.h:20:35: error: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast [-Werror]
     20 |         (!!(sizeof((typeof(x) *)1 == (typeof(y) *)1)))
        |                                   ^~
  lib/iov_iter.c:1464:16: note: in expansion of macro 'min'
   1464 |         return min(nr * PAGE_SIZE - offset, maxsize);
        |                ^~~

This was not visible on 64-bit architectures (where we always define
'size_t' to be 'unsigned long').

Force these cases to use 'min_t(size_t, x, y)' to make the type explicit
and avoid the issue.

[ Nit-picky note: technically 'size_t' doesn't have to match 'unsigned
  long' arithmetically. We've certainly historically seen environments
  with 16-bit address spaces and 32-bit 'unsigned long'.

  Similarly, even in 64-bit modern environments, 'size_t' could be its
  own type distinct from 'unsigned long', even if it were arithmetically
  identical.

  So the above type commentary is only really descriptive of the kernel
  environment, not some kind of universal truth for the kinds of wild
  and crazy situations that are allowed by the C standard ]

      wireguard: selftests: use maximum cpu features and allow rng seeding · 17b0128a
      Jason A. Donenfeld authored 
      By forcing the maximum CPU that QEMU has available, we expose additional
capabilities, such as the RNDR instruction, which increases test
coverage. This then allows the CI to skip the fake seeding step in some
cases. Also enable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX to catch issues related to early
jump labels when the RNG is initialized at boot.

      scripts/gdb: change kernel config dumping method · 1f7a6cf6
      Kuan-Ying Lee authored 
      MAGIC_START("IKCFG_ST") and MAGIC_END("IKCFG_ED") are moved out
from the kernel_config_data variable.

Thus, we parse kernel_config_data directly instead of considering
offset of MAGIC_START and MAGIC_END.

      um: virt-pci: set device ready in probe() · eacea844
      Vincent Whitchurch authored 
      Call virtio_device_ready() to make this driver work after commit
b4ec69d7e09 ("virtio: harden vring IRQ"), since the driver uses the
virtqueues in the probe function.  (The virtio core sets the device
ready when probe returns.)
