sched_nr_migrate_break is set to a fix value and never changes so we can replace it by a define SCHED_NR_MIGRATE_BREAK. Also, we adjust SCHED_NR_MIGRATE_BREAK to be aligned with the init value of sysctl_sched_nr_migrate which can be init to different values. Then, use SCHED_NR_MIGRATE_BREAK to init sysctl_sched_nr_migrate. The behavior stays unchanged unless you modify sysctl_sched_nr_migrate trough debugfs.

During load balance, we try at most env->loop_max time to move a task. But it can happen that the loop_max LRU tasks (ie tail of the cfs_tasks list) can't be moved to dst_cpu because of affinity. In this case, loop in the list until we found at least one. The maximum of detached tasks remained the same as before.

Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler in general. By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake up early, as is currently possible. As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up two PF_flags (yay!). Specifically; the current scheme works a little like: freezer_do_not_count(); schedule(); freezer_count(); And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer() through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer considers it frozen and continues. However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count() stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run before its time. That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back. This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9) where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run. As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add the following state transitions: TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL (IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is lost). The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since their canonical state is in ->jobctl. With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

It's uncertain whether idle cores exist or not if shared sched- domains are not ready, so returning "no idle cores" usually makes sense. While __update_idle_core() is an exception, it checks status of this core and set hint to shared sched-domain if necessary. So the whole logic of this function depends on the existence of shared sched-domain, and can certainly bail out early if it is not available. It's somehow a little tricky, and as Josh suggested that it should be transient while the domain isn't ready. So remove the self-defined default value to make things more clearer.

When wake_up_new_task(), we use post_init_entity_util_avg() to init util_avg/runnable_avg based on cpu's util_avg at that time, and attach task sched_avg to cfs_rq. Since enqueue_task_fair() -> enqueue_entity() -> update_load_avg() loop will do attach, we can move this work to update_load_avg(). wake_up_new_task(p) post_init_entity_util_avg(p) attach_entity_cfs_rq() --> (1) activate_task(rq, p) enqueue_task() := enqueue_task_fair() enqueue_entity() loop update_load_avg(cfs_rq, se, UPDATE_TG | DO_ATTACH) if (!se->avg.last_update_time && (flags & DO_ATTACH)) attach_entity_load_avg() --> (2) This patch move attach from (1) to (2), update related comments too.

commit 7dc603c9 ("sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new tasks") introduce a TASK_NEW state and an unnessary limitation that would fail when changing cgroup of new forked task. Because at that time, we can't handle task_change_group_fair() for new forked fair task which hasn't been woken up by wake_up_new_task(), which will cause detach on an unattached task sched_avg problem. This patch delete this unnessary limitation by adding check before do detach or attach in task_change_group_fair(). So cpu_cgrp_subsys.can_attach() has nothing to do for fair tasks, only define it in #ifdef CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED.

commit 7dc603c9 ("sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new tasks") fixed two load tracking problems for new task, including detach on unattached new task problem. There still left another detach on unattached task problem for the task which has been woken up by try_to_wake_up() and waiting for actually being woken up by sched_ttwu_pending(). try_to_wake_up(p) cpu = select_task_rq(p) if (task_cpu(p) != cpu) set_task_cpu(p, cpu) migrate_task_rq_fair() remove_entity_load_avg() --> unattached se->avg.last_update_time = 0; __set_task_cpu() ttwu_queue(p, cpu) ttwu_queue_wakelist() __ttwu_queue_wakelist() task_change_group_fair() detach_task_cfs_rq() detach_entity_cfs_rq() detach_entity_load_avg() --> detach on unattached task set_task_rq() attach_task_cfs_rq() attach_entity_cfs_rq() attach_entity_load_avg() The reason of this problem is similar, we should check in detach_entity_cfs_rq() that se->avg.last_update_time != 0, before do detach_entity_load_avg().

When we are migrating task out of the CPU, we can combine detach and propagation into dequeue_entity() to save the detach_entity_cfs_rq() in migrate_task_rq_fair(). This optimization is like combining DO_ATTACH in the enqueue_entity() when migrating task to the CPU. So we don't have to traverse the CFS tree extra time to do the detach_entity_cfs_rq() -> propagate_entity_cfs_rq(), which wouldn't be called anymore with this patch's change. detach_task() deactivate_task() dequeue_task_fair() for_each_sched_entity(se) dequeue_entity() update_load_avg() /* (1) */ detach_entity_load_avg() set_task_cpu() migrate_task_rq_fair() detach_entity_cfs_rq() /* (2) */ update_load_avg(); detach_entity_load_avg(); propagate_entity_cfs_rq(); for_each_sched_entity() update_load_avg() This patch save the detach_entity_cfs_rq() called in (2) by doing the detach_entity_load_avg() for a CPU migrating task inside (1) (the task being the first se in the loop) Signed-off-by: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@bytedance.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220818124805.601-6-zhouchengming@bytedance.com

There's no good reason to crash a user's system with a BUG_ON(), chances are high that they'll never even see the crash message on Xorg, and it won't make it into the syslog either. By using a WARN_ON_ONCE() we at least give the user a chance to report any bugs triggered here - instead of getting silent hangs. None of these WARN_ON_ONCE()s are supposed to trigger, ever - so we ignore cases where a NULL check is done via a BUG_ON() and we let a NULL pointer through after a WARN_ON_ONCE(). There's one exception: WARN_ON_ONCE() arguments with side-effects, such as locking - in this case we use the return value of the WARN_ON_ONCE(), such as in: - BUG_ON(!lock_task_sighand(p, &flags)); + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!lock_task_sighand(p, &flags))) + return; Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/YvSsKcAXISmshtHo@gmail.com

It turns out that gcc-12.1 has some nasty problems with register allocation on a 32-bit x86 build for the 64-bit values used in the generic blake2b implementation, where the pattern of 64-bit rotates and xor operations ends up making gcc generate horrible code. As a result it ends up with a ridiculously large stack frame for all the spills it generates, resulting in the following build problem: crypto/blake2b_generic.c: In function ‘blake2b_compress_one_generic’: crypto/blake2b_generic.c:109:1: error: the frame size of 2640 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] on the same test-case, clang ends up generating a stack frame that is just 296 bytes (and older gcc versions generate a slightly bigger one at 428 bytes - still nowhere near that almost 3kB monster stack frame of gcc-12.1). The issue is fixed both in mainline and the GCC 12 release branch [1], but current release compilers end up failing the i386 allmodconfig build due to this issue. Disable the warning for now by simply raising the frame size for this one file, just to keep this issue from having people turn off WERROR.
