2020-10-03sched/debug: Add new tracepoint to track cpu_capacityVincent Donnefort
rq->cpu_capacity is a key element in several scheduler parts, such as EAS task placement and load balancing. Tracking this value enables testing and/or debugging by a toolkit.

Currently, pick_next_entity(...) has the following structure (simplified): [...] if (last_buddy_ok()) result = last_buddy; if (next_buddy_ok()) result = next_buddy; [...] The intended behavior is to prefer next buddy over last buddy; the current code somewhat obfuscates this, and also wastes cycles checking the last buddy when eventually the next buddy is picked up.

2020-09-25sched/fair: Use dst group while checking imbalance for NUMA balancerBarry Song
Barry Song noted the following Something is wrong. In find_busiest_group(), we are checking if src has higher load, however, in task_numa_find_cpu(), we are checking if dst will have higher load after balancing. It seems it is not sensible to check src. It maybe cause wrong imbalance value, for example, if dst_running = env->dst_stats.nr_running + 1 results in 3 or above, and src_running = env->src_stats.nr_running - 1 results in 1; The current code is thinking imbalance as 0 since src_running is smaller than 2. This is inconsistent with load balancer. Basically, in find_busiest_group(), the NUMA imbalance is ignored if moving a task "from an almost idle domain" to a "domain with spare capacity". This patch forbids movement "from a misplaced domain" to "an almost idle domain" as that is closer to what the CPU load balancer expects. This patch is not a universal win. The old behaviour was intended to allow a task from an almost idle NUMA node to migrate to its preferred node if the destination had capacity but there are corner cases. For example, a NAS compute load could be parallelised to use 1/3rd of available CPUs but not all those potential tasks are active at all times allowing this logic to trigger. An obvious example is specjbb 2005 running various numbers of warehouses on a 2 socket box with 80 cpus. specjbb 5.9.0-rc4 5.9.0-rc4 vanilla dstbalance-v1r1 Hmean tput-1 46425.00 ( 0.00%) 43394.00 * -6.53%* Hmean tput-2 98416.00 ( 0.00%) 96031.00 * -2.42%* Hmean tput-3 150184.00 ( 0.00%) 148783.00 * -0.93%* Hmean tput-4 200683.00 ( 0.00%) 197906.00 * -1.38%* Hmean tput-5 236305.00 ( 0.00%) 245549.00 * 3.91%* Hmean tput-6 281559.00 ( 0.00%) 285692.00 * 1.47%* Hmean tput-7 338558.00 ( 0.00%) 334467.00 * -1.21%* Hmean tput-8 340745.00 ( 0.00%) 372501.00 * 9.32%* Hmean tput-9 424343.00 ( 0.00%) 413006.00 * -2.67%* Hmean tput-10 421854.00 ( 0.00%) 434261.00 * 2.94%* Hmean tput-11 493256.00 ( 0.00%) 485330.00 * -1.61%* Hmean tput-12 549573.00 ( 0.00%) 529959.00 * -3.57%* Hmean tput-13 593183.00 ( 0.00%) 555010.00 * -6.44%* Hmean tput-14 588252.00 ( 0.00%) 599166.00 * 1.86%* Hmean tput-15 623065.00 ( 0.00%) 642713.00 * 3.15%* Hmean tput-16 703924.00 ( 0.00%) 660758.00 * -6.13%* Hmean tput-17 666023.00 ( 0.00%) 697675.00 * 4.75%* Hmean tput-18 761502.00 ( 0.00%) 758360.00 * -0.41%* Hmean tput-19 796088.00 ( 0.00%) 798368.00 * 0.29%* Hmean tput-20 733564.00 ( 0.00%) 823086.00 * 12.20%* Hmean tput-21 840980.00 ( 0.00%) 856711.00 * 1.87%* Hmean tput-22 804285.00 ( 0.00%) 872238.00 * 8.45%* Hmean tput-23 795208.00 ( 0.00%) 889374.00 * 11.84%* Hmean tput-24 848619.00 ( 0.00%) 966783.00 * 13.92%* Hmean tput-25 750848.00 ( 0.00%) 903790.00 * 20.37%* Hmean tput-26 780523.00 ( 0.00%) 962254.00 * 23.28%* Hmean tput-27 1042245.00 ( 0.00%) 991544.00 * -4.86%* Hmean tput-28 1090580.00 ( 0.00%) 1035926.00 * -5.01%* Hmean tput-29 999483.00 ( 0.00%) 1082948.00 * 8.35%* Hmean tput-30 1098663.00 ( 0.00%) 1113427.00 * 1.34%* Hmean tput-31 1125671.00 ( 0.00%) 1134175.00 * 0.76%* Hmean tput-32 968167.00 ( 0.00%) 1250286.00 * 29.14%* Hmean tput-33 1077676.00 ( 0.00%) 1060893.00 * -1.56%* Hmean tput-34 1090538.00 ( 0.00%) 1090933.00 * 0.04%* Hmean tput-35 967058.00 ( 0.00%) 1107421.00 * 14.51%* Hmean tput-36 1051745.00 ( 0.00%) 1210663.00 * 15.11%* Hmean tput-37 1019465.00 ( 0.00%) 1351446.00 * 32.56%* Hmean tput-38 1083102.00 ( 0.00%) 1064541.00 * -1.71%* Hmean tput-39 1232990.00 ( 0.00%) 1303623.00 * 5.73%* Hmean tput-40 1175542.00 ( 0.00%) 1340943.00 * 14.07%* Hmean tput-41 1127826.00 ( 0.00%) 1339492.00 * 18.77%* Hmean tput-42 1198313.00 ( 0.00%) 1411023.00 * 17.75%* Hmean tput-43 1163733.00 ( 0.00%) 1228253.00 * 5.54%* Hmean tput-44 1305562.00 ( 0.00%) 1357886.00 * 4.01%* Hmean tput-45 1326752.00 ( 0.00%) 1406061.00 * 5.98%* Hmean tput-46 1339424.00 ( 0.00%) 1418451.00 * 5.90%* Hmean tput-47 1415057.00 ( 0.00%) 1381570.00 * -2.37%* Hmean tput-48 1392003.00 ( 0.00%) 1421167.00 * 2.10%* Hmean tput-49 1408374.00 ( 0.00%) 1418659.00 * 0.73%* Hmean tput-50 1359822.00 ( 0.00%) 1391070.00 * 2.30%* Hmean tput-51 1414246.00 ( 0.00%) 1392679.00 * -1.52%* Hmean tput-52 1432352.00 ( 0.00%) 1354020.00 * -5.47%* Hmean tput-53 1387563.00 ( 0.00%) 1409563.00 * 1.59%* Hmean tput-54 1406420.00 ( 0.00%) 1388711.00 * -1.26%* Hmean tput-55 1438804.00 ( 0.00%) 1387472.00 * -3.57%* Hmean tput-56 1399465.00 ( 0.00%) 1400296.00 * 0.06%* Hmean tput-57 1428132.00 ( 0.00%) 1396399.00 * -2.22%* Hmean tput-58 1432385.00 ( 0.00%) 1386253.00 * -3.22%* Hmean tput-59 1421612.00 ( 0.00%) 1371416.00 * -3.53%* Hmean tput-60 1429423.00 ( 0.00%) 1389412.00 * -2.80%* Hmean tput-61 1396230.00 ( 0.00%) 1351122.00 * -3.23%* Hmean tput-62 1418396.00 ( 0.00%) 1383098.00 * -2.49%* Hmean tput-63 1409918.00 ( 0.00%) 1374662.00 * -2.50%* Hmean tput-64 1410236.00 ( 0.00%) 1376216.00 * -2.41%* Hmean tput-65 1396405.00 ( 0.00%) 1364418.00 * -2.29%* Hmean tput-66 1395975.00 ( 0.00%) 1357326.00 * -2.77%* Hmean tput-67 1392986.00 ( 0.00%) 1349642.00 * -3.11%* Hmean tput-68 1386541.00 ( 0.00%) 1343261.00 * -3.12%* Hmean tput-69 1374407.00 ( 0.00%) 1342588.00 * -2.32%* Hmean tput-70 1377513.00 ( 0.00%) 1334654.00 * -3.11%* Hmean tput-71 1369319.00 ( 0.00%) 1334952.00 * -2.51%* Hmean tput-72 1354635.00 ( 0.00%) 1329005.00 * -1.89%* Hmean tput-73 1350933.00 ( 0.00%) 1318942.00 * -2.37%* Hmean tput-74 1351714.00 ( 0.00%) 1316347.00 * -2.62%* Hmean tput-75 1352198.00 ( 0.00%) 1309974.00 * -3.12%* Hmean tput-76 1349490.00 ( 0.00%) 1286064.00 * -4.70%* Hmean tput-77 1336131.00 ( 0.00%) 1303684.00 * -2.43%* Hmean tput-78 1308896.00 ( 0.00%) 1271024.00 * -2.89%* Hmean tput-79 1326703.00 ( 0.00%) 1290862.00 * -2.70%* Hmean tput-80 1336199.00 ( 0.00%) 1291629.00 * -3.34%* The performance at the mid-point is better but not universally better. The patch is a mixed bag depending on the workload, machine and overall levels of utilisation. Sometimes it's better (sometimes much better), other times it is worse (sometimes much worse). Given that there isn't a universally good decision in this section and more people seem to prefer the patch then it may be best to keep the LB decisions consistent and revisit imbalance handling when the load balancer code changes settle down. Jirka Hladky added the following observation. Our results are mostly in line with what you see. We observe big gains (20-50%) when the system is loaded to 1/3 of the maximum capacity and mixed results at the full load - some workloads benefit from the patch at the full load, others not, but performance changes at the full load are mostly within the noise of results (+/-5%). Overall, we think this patch is helpful.

2020-09-25sched/fair: Minimize concurrent LBs between domain levelVincent Guittot
sched domains tend to trigger simultaneously the load balance loop but the larger domains often need more time to collect statistics. This slowness makes the larger domain trying to detach tasks from a rq whereas tasks already migrated somewhere else at a sub-domain level. This is not a real problem for idle LB because the period of smaller domains will increase with its CPUs being busy and this will let time for higher ones to pulled tasks. But this becomes a problem when all CPUs are already busy because all domains stay synced when they trigger their LB. A simple way to minimize simultaneous LB of all domains is to decrement the the busy interval by 1 jiffies. Because of the busy_factor, the interval of larger domain will not be a multiple of smaller ones anymore.

2020-09-25sched/fair: Relax constraint on task's load during load balanceVincent Guittot
Some UCs like 9 always running tasks on 8 CPUs can't be balanced and the load balancer currently migrates the waiting task between the CPUs in an almost random manner. The success of a rq pulling a task depends of the value of nr_balance_failed of its domains and its ability to be faster than others to detach it. This behavior results in an unfair distribution of the running time between tasks because some CPUs will run most of the time, if not always, the same task whereas others will share their time between several tasks. Instead of using nr_balance_failed as a boolean to relax the condition for detaching task, the LB will use nr_balanced_failed to relax the threshold between the tasks'load and the imbalance. This mecanism prevents the same rq or domain to always win the load balance fight.

2020-09-25sched/fair: Fix wrong cpu selecting from isolated domainXunlei Pang
We've met problems that occasionally tasks with full cpumask (e.g. by putting it into a cpuset or setting to full affinity) were migrated to our isolated cpus in production environment. After some analysis, we found that it is due to the current select_idle_smt() not considering the sched_domain mask. Steps to reproduce on my 31-CPU hyperthreads machine: 1. with boot parameter: "isolcpus=domain,2-31" (thread lists: 0,16 and 1,17) 2. cgcreate -g cpu:test; cgexec -g cpu:test "test_threads" 3. some threads will be migrated to the isolated cpu16~17. Fix it by checking the valid domain mask in select_idle_smt().

The code in reweight_entity() can be simplified. For a sched entity on the rq, the entity accounting can be replaced by cfs_rq instantaneous load updates currently called from within the entity accounting. Even though an entity on the rq can't represent a task in reweight_entity() (a task is always dequeued before calling this function) and so the numa task accounting and the rq->cfs_tasks list management of the entity accounting are never called, the redundant cfs_rq->nr_running decrement/increment will be avoided.

In find_energy_efficient_cpu() 'cpu_cap' could be less that 'util'. It might be because of RT, DL (so higher sched class than CFS), irq or thermal pressure signal, which reduce the capacity value. In such situation the result of 'cpu_cap - util' might be negative but stored in the unsigned long. Then it might be compared with other unsigned long when uclamp_rq_util_with() reduced the 'util' such that is passes the fits_capacity() check.

2020-07-22sched/fair: update_pick_idlest() Select group with lowest group_util when ↵Peter Puhov
idle_cpus are equal In slow path, when selecting idlest group, if both groups have type group_has_spare, only idle_cpus count gets compared. As a result, if multiple tasks are created in a tight loop, and go back to sleep immediately (while waiting for all tasks to be created), they may be scheduled on the same core, because CPU is back to idle when the new fork happen. For example: sudo perf record -e sched:sched_wakeup_new -- \ sysbench threads --threads=4 run ... total number of events: 61582 ... sudo perf script sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.633466: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129380 [120] success=1 CPU:007 sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.634718: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129381 [120] success=1 CPU:007 sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.635957: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129382 [120] success=1 CPU:007 sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.637183: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129383 [120] success=1 CPU:007 This may have negative impact on performance for workloads with frequent creation of multiple threads. In this patch we are using group_util to select idlest group if both groups have equal number of idle_cpus. Comparing the number of idle cpu is not enough in this case, because the newly forked thread sleeps immediately and before we select the cpu for the next one. This is shown in the trace where the same CPU7 is selected for all wakeup_new events. That's why, looking at utilization when there is the same number of CPU is a good way to see where the previous task was placed. Using nr_running doesn't solve the problem because the newly forked task is not running and the cpu would not have been idle in this case and an idle CPU would have been selected instead. With this patch newly created tasks would be better distributed. With this patch: sudo perf record -e sched:sched_wakeup_new -- \ sysbench threads --threads=4 run ... total number of events: 74401 ... sudo perf script sysbench 129455 [006] 75232.853257: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129457 [120] success=1 CPU:008 sysbench 129455 [006] 75232.854489: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129458 [120] success=1 CPU:009 sysbench 129455 [006] 75232.855732: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129459 [120] success=1 CPU:010 sysbench 129455 [006] 75232.856980: sched:sched_wakeup_new: sysbench:129460 [120] success=1 CPU:011 We tested this patch with following benchmarks: master: 'commit b3a9e3b9622a ("Linux 5.8-rc1")' 100 iterations of: perf bench -f simple futex wake -s -t 128 -w 1 Lower result is better | | BASELINE | +PATCH | DELTA (%) | |---------|------------|----------|-------------| | mean | 0.33 | 0.313 | +5.152 | | std (%) | 10.433 | 7.563 | | 100 iterations of: sysbench threads --threads=8 run Higher result is better | | BASELINE | +PATCH | DELTA (%) | |---------|------------|----------|-------------| | mean | 5235.02 | 5863.73 | +12.01 | | std (%) | 8.166 | 10.265 | | 100 iterations of: sysbench mutex --mutex-num=1 --threads=8 run Lower result is better | | BASELINE | +PATCH | DELTA (%) | |---------|------------|----------|-------------| | mean | 0.413 | 0.404 | +2.179 | | std (%) | 3.791 | 1.816 | | Signed-off-by: Peter Puhov <peter.puhov@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200714125941.4174-1-peter.puhov@linaro.org

2020-07-16sched/fair: handle case of task_h_load() returning 0Vincent Guittot
task_h_load() can return 0 in some situations like running stress-ng mmapfork, which forks thousands of threads, in a sched group on a 224 cores system. The load balance doesn't handle this correctly because env->imbalance never decreases and it will stop pulling tasks only after reaching loop_max, which can be equal to the number of running tasks of the cfs. Make sure that imbalance will be decreased by at least 1. misfit task is the other feature that doesn't handle correctly such situation although it's probably more difficult to face the problem because of the smaller number of CPUs and running tasks on heterogenous system. We can't simply ensure that task_h_load() returns at least one because it would imply to handle underflow in other places.

Add a bare tracepoint trace_sched_update_nr_running_tp which tracks ->nr_running CPU's rq. This is used to accurately trace this data and provide a visualization of scheduler imbalances in, for example, the form of a heat map. The tracepoint is accessed by loading an external kernel module.

Some performance regression on reaim benchmark have been raised with commit 070f5e860ee2 ("sched/fair: Take into account runnable_avg to classify group") The problem comes from the init value of runnable_avg which is initialized with max value. This can be a problem if the newly forked task is finally a short task because the group of CPUs is wrongly set to overloaded and tasks are pulled less agressively. Set initial value of runnable_avg equals to util_avg to reflect that there is no waiting time so far.

The task work is queued by task_tick_numa(), which checks if current->mm is NULL at the time of the call. But this state isn't necessarily persistent, if the kthread is using use_mm() to temporarily adopt the mm of a task. Change the task_tick_numa() check to exclude kernel threads in general, as it doesn't make sense to attempt ot balance for kthreads anyway.

2020-05-19sched/fair: Replace zero-length array with flexible-arrayGustavo A. R. Silva
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues. This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

2020-05-19sched/pelt: Sync util/runnable_sum with PELT window when propagatingVincent Guittot
update_tg_cfs_*() propagate the impact of the attach/detach of an entity down into the cfs_rq hierarchy and must keep the sync with the current pelt window. Even if we can't sync child cfs_rq and its group se, we can sync the group se and its parent cfs_rq with current position in the PELT window. In fact, we must keep them sync in order to stay also synced with others entities and group entities that are already attached to the cfs_rq.

Futhermore, the latter can be removed because se is always NULL when reaching this point.

2020-05-19sched/fair: Fix unthrottle_cfs_rq() for leaf_cfs_rq listVincent Guittot
Although not exactly identical, unthrottle_cfs_rq() and enqueue_task_fair() are quite close and follow the same sequence for enqueuing an entity in the cfs hierarchy. Modify unthrottle_cfs_rq() to use the same pattern as enqueue_task_fair(). This fixes a problem already faced with the latter and add an optimization in the last for_each_sched_entity loop.

2020-05-19sched/fair: Fix enqueue_task_fair() warning some morePhil Auld
sched/fair: Fix enqueue_task_fair warning some more The recent patch, fe61468b2cb (sched/fair: Fix enqueue_task_fair warning) did not fully resolve the issues with the rq->tmp_alone_branch != &rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list warning in enqueue_task_fair. There is a case where the first for_each_sched_entity loop exits due to on_rq, having incompletely updated the list. In this case the second for_each_sched_entity loop can further modify se. The later code to fix up the list management fails to do what is needed because se does not point to the sched_entity which broke out of the first loop. The list is not fixed up because the throttled parent was already added back to the list by a task enqueue in a parallel child hierarchy. Address this by calling list_add_leaf_cfs_rq if there are throttled parents while doing the second for_each_sched_entity loop.

2020-05-12sched: Clean up scheduler_ipi()Peter Zijlstra (Intel)
The scheduler IPI has grown weird and wonderful over the years, time for spring cleaning. Move all the non-trivial stuff out of it and into a regular smp function call IPI. This then reduces the schedule_ipi() to most of it's former NOP glory and ensures to keep the interrupt vector lean and mean. Aside of that avoiding the full irq_enter() in the x86 IPI implementation is incorrect as scheduler_ipi() can be instrumented. To work around that scheduler_ipi() had an irq_enter/exit() hack when heavy work was pending. This is gone now.

2020-04-30sched/fair: Refill bandwidth before scalingHuaixin Chang
In order to prevent possible hardlockup of sched_cfs_period_timer() loop, loop count is introduced to denote whether to scale quota and period or not. However, scale is done between forwarding period timer and refilling cfs bandwidth runtime, which means that period timer is forwarded with old "period" while runtime is refilled with scaled "quota". Move do_sched_cfs_period_timer() before scaling to solve this.

2020-04-30sched: Remove checks against SD_LOAD_BALANCEValentin Schneider
The SD_LOAD_BALANCE flag is set unconditionally for all domains in sd_init(). By making the sched_domain->flags syctl interface read-only, we have removed the last piece of code that could clear that flag - as such, it will now be always present. Rather than to keep carrying it along, we can work towards getting rid of it entirely. cpusets don't need it because they can make CPUs be attached to the NULL domain (e.g. cpuset with sched_load_balance=0), or to a partitioned root_domain, i.e. a sched_domain hierarchy that doesn't span the entire system (e.g. root cpuset with sched_load_balance=0 and sibling cpusets with sched_load_balance=1). isolcpus apply the same "trick": isolated CPUs are explicitly taken out of the sched_domain rebuild (using housekeeping_cpumask()), so they get the NULL domain treatment as well.
