2017-09-14sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bitTim Chen
Now that we have added breaks in the wait queue scan and allow bookmark on scan position, we put this logic in the wake_up_page_bit function. We can have very long page wait list in large system where multiple pages share the same wait list. We break the wake up walk here to allow other cpus a chance to access the list, and not to disable the interrupts when traversing the list for too long. This reduces the interrupt and rescheduling latency, and excessive page wait queue lock hold time.

2017-09-14sched/wait: Break up long wake list walkTim Chen
We encountered workloads that have very long wake up list on large systems. A waker takes a long time to traverse the entire wake list and execute all the wake functions. We saw page wait list that are up to 3700+ entries long in tests of large 4 and 8 socket systems. It took 0.8 sec to traverse such list during wake up. Any other CPU that contends for the list spin lock will spin for a long time. It is a result of the numa balancing migration of hot pages that are shared by many threads. Multiple CPUs waking are queued up behind the lock, and the last one queued has to wait until all CPUs did all the wakeups. The page wait list is traversed with interrupt disabled, which caused various problems. This was the original cause that triggered the NMI watch dog timer in: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9800303/ . Only extending the NMI watch dog timer there helped. This patch bookmarks the waker's scan position in wake list and break the wake up walk, to allow access to the list before the waker resume its walk down the rest of the wait list. It lowers the interrupt and rescheduling latency. This patch also provides a performance boost when combined with the next patch to break up page wakeup list walk. We saw 22% improvement in the will-it-scale file pread2 test on a Xeon Phi system running 256 threads.

2017-09-12sched/fair: Plug hole between hotplug and active_load_balance()Peter Zijlstra
The load balancer applies cpu_active_mask to whatever sched_domains it finds, however in the case of active_balance there is a hole between setting rq->{active_balance,push_cpu} and running the stop_machine work doing the actual migration. The @push_cpu can go offline in this window, which would result in us moving a task onto a dead cpu, which is a fairly bad thing. Double check the active mask before the stop work does the migration.

2017-09-12sched/fair: Avoid newidle balance for !active CPUsPeter Zijlstra
On CPU hot unplug, when parking the last kthread we'll try and schedule into idle to kill the CPU. This last schedule can (and does) trigger newidle balance because at this point the sched domains are still up because of commit: 77d1dfda0e79 ("sched/topology, cpuset: Avoid spurious/wrong domain rebuilds") Obviously pulling tasks to an already offline CPU is a bad idea, and all balancing operations _should_ be subject to cpu_active_mask, make it so.

2017-09-08treewide: make "nr_cpu_ids" unsignedAlexey Dobriyan
First, number of CPUs can't be negative number. Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following cases: 1) kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X)); "int" has to be sign extended to size_t. 2) while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids) MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV. Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".

2017-09-07sched/cpuset/pm: Fix cpuset vs. suspend-resume bugsPeter Zijlstra
Cpusets vs. suspend-resume is _completely_ broken. And it got noticed because it now resulted in non-cpuset usage breaking too. On suspend cpuset_cpu_inactive() doesn't call into cpuset_update_active_cpus() because it doesn't want to move tasks about, there is no need, all tasks are frozen and won't run again until after we've resumed everything. But this means that when we finally do call into cpuset_update_active_cpus() after resuming the last frozen cpu in cpuset_cpu_active(), the top_cpuset will not have any difference with the cpu_active_mask and this it will not in fact do _anything_. So the cpuset configuration will not be restored. This was largely hidden because we would unconditionally create identity domains and mobile users would not in fact use cpusets much. And servers what do use cpusets tend to not suspend-resume much. An addition problem is that we'd not in fact wait for the cpuset work to finish before resuming the tasks, allowing spurious migrations outside of the specified domains. Fix the rebuild by introducing cpuset_force_rebuild() and fix the ordering with cpuset_wait_for_hotplug().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "This time (again) cpufreq gets the majority of changes which mostly are driver updates (including a major consolidation of intel_pstate), some schedutil governor modifications and core cleanups. There also are some changes in the system suspend area, mostly related to diagnostics and debug messages plus some renames of things related to suspend-to-idle. One major change here is that suspend-to-idle is now going to be preferred over S3 on systems where the ACPI tables indicate to do so and provide requsite support (the Low Power Idle S0 _DSM in particular). The system sleep documentation and the tools related to it are updated too. The rest is a few cpuidle changes (nothing major), devfreq updates, generic power domains (genpd) framework updates and a few assorted modifications elsewhere. Specifics: - Drop the P-state selection algorithm based on a PID controller from intel_pstate and make it use the same P-state selection method (based on the CPU load) for all types of systems in the active mode (Rafael Wysocki, Srinivas Pandruvada). - Rework the cpufreq core and governors to make it possible to take cross-CPU utilization updates into account and modify the schedutil governor to actually do so (Viresh Kumar). - Clean up the handling of transition latency information in the cpufreq core and untangle it from the information on which drivers cannot do dynamic frequency switching (Viresh Kumar). - Add support for new SoCs (MT2701/MT7623 and MT7622) to the mediatek cpufreq driver and update its DT bindings (Sean Wang). - Modify the cpufreq dt-platdev driver to autimatically create cpufreq devices for the new (v2) Operating Performance Points (OPP) DT bindings and update its whitelist of supported systems (Viresh Kumar, Shubhrajyoti Datta, Marc Gonzalez, Khiem Nguyen, Finley Xiao). - Add support for Ux500 to the cpufreq-dt driver and drop the obsolete dbx500 cpufreq driver (Linus Walleij, Arnd Bergmann). - Add new SoC (R8A7795) support to the cpufreq rcar driver (Khiem Nguyen). - Fix and clean up assorted issues in the cpufreq drivers and core (Arvind Yadav, Christophe Jaillet, Colin Ian King, Gustavo Silva, Julia Lawall, Leonard Crestez, Rob Herring, Sudeep Holla). - Update the IO-wait boost handling in the schedutil governor to make it less aggressive (Joel Fernandes). - Rework system suspend diagnostics to make it print fewer messages to the kernel log by default, add a sysfs knob to allow more suspend-related messages to be printed and add Low Power S0 Idle constraints checks to the ACPI suspend-to-idle code (Rafael Wysocki, Srinivas Pandruvada). - Prefer suspend-to-idle over S3 on ACPI-based systems with the ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0 flag set and the Low Power Idle S0 _DSM interface present in the ACPI tables (Rafael Wysocki). - Update documentation related to system sleep and rename a number of items in the code to make it cleare that they are related to suspend-to-idle (Rafael Wysocki). - Export a variable allowing device drivers to check the target system sleep state from the core system suspend code (Florian Fainelli). - Clean up the cpuidle subsystem to handle the polling state on x86 in a more straightforward way and to use %pOF instead of full_name (Rafael Wysocki, Rob Herring). - Update the devfreq framework to fix and clean up a few minor issues (Chanwoo Choi, Rob Herring). - Extend diagnostics in the generic power domains (genpd) framework and clean it up slightly (Thara Gopinath, Rob Herring). - Fix and clean up a couple of issues in the operating performance points (OPP) framework (Viresh Kumar, Waldemar Rymarkiewicz). - Add support for RV1108 to the rockchip-io Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) driver (David Wu). - Fix the usage of notifiers in CPU power management on some platforms (Alex Shi). - Update the pm-graph system suspend/hibernation and boot profiling utility (Todd Brandt). - Make it possible to run the cpupower utility without CPU0 (Prarit Bhargava)" * tag 'pm-4.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (87 commits) cpuidle: Make drivers initialize polling state cpuidle: Move polling state initialization code to separate file cpuidle: Eliminate the CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START symbol cpufreq: imx6q: Fix imx6sx low frequency support cpufreq: speedstep-lib: make several arrays static, makes code smaller PM: docs: Delete the obsolete states.txt document PM: docs: Describe high-level PM strategies and sleep states PM / devfreq: Fix memory leak when fail to register device PM / devfreq: Add dependency on PM_OPP PM / devfreq: Move private devfreq_update_stats() into devfreq PM / devfreq: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name PM / AVS: rockchip-io: add io selectors and supplies for RV1108 cpufreq: ti: Fix 'of_node_put' being called twice in error handling path cpufreq: dt-platdev: Drop few entries from whitelist cpufreq: dt-platdev: Automatically create cpufreq device with OPP v2 ARM: ux500: don't select CPUFREQ_DT cpuidle: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name cpufreq: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name PM / Domains: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name cpufreq: Cap the default transition delay value to 10 ms ...

Currently it is not allocated with any explicit alignment requirements. This makes it possible for allocated call_single_data to cross two cache lines, which results in double the number of the cache lines that need to be transferred among CPUs. This can be fixed by requiring call_single_data to be aligned with the size of call_single_data. Currently the size of call_single_data is the power of 2. If we add new fields to call_single_data, we may need to add padding to make sure the size of new definition is the power of 2 as well. Fortunately, this is enforced by GCC, which will report bad sizes. To set alignment requirements of call_single_data to the size of call_single_data, a struct definition and a typedef is used. To test the effect of the patch, I used the vm-scalability multiple thread swap test case (swap-w-seq-mt). The test will create multiple threads and each thread will eat memory until all RAM and part of swap is used, so that huge number of IPIs are triggered when unmapping memory. In the test, the throughput of memory writing improves ~5% compared with misaligned call_single_data, because of faster IPIs.

2017-08-27Minor page waitqueue cleanupsLinus Torvalds
Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows extremely long page wakeup lists. The cause seems to be constant NUMA migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found. Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes. That is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue specific parts of it. In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less expensive, and failing miserably. If you have thousands of threads waiting for the same page, it will be painful. We'll need to try to figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding the excessive spinlock hold times. That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular: (a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of the patterns of the bad load). That makes no progress and just causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers. (b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back. Not only is that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway. Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members. It so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first member in struct page.

2017-08-18cpufreq: schedutil: Always process remote callback with slow switchingViresh Kumar
The frequency update from the utilization update handlers can be divided into two parts: (A) Finding the next frequency (B) Updating the frequency While any CPU can do (A), (B) can be restricted to a group of CPUs only, depending on the current platform. For platforms where fast cpufreq switching is possible, both (A) and (B) are always done from the same CPU and that CPU should be capable of changing the frequency of the target CPU. But for platforms where fast cpufreq switching isn't possible, after doing (A) we wake up a kthread which will eventually do (B). This kthread is already bound to the right set of CPUs, i.e. only those which can change the frequency of CPUs of a cpufreq policy. And so any CPU can actually do (A) in this case, as the frequency is updated from the right set of CPUs only. Check cpufreq_can_do_remote_dvfs() only for the fast switching case.

Utilization update callbacks are now processed remotely, even on the CPUs that don't share cpufreq policy with the target CPU (if dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu flag is set). But in non-fast switch paths, the frequency is changed only from one of policy->related_cpus. This happens because the kthread which does the actual update is bound to a subset of CPUs (i.e. related_cpus).

2017-08-17membarrier: Provide expedited private commandMathieu Desnoyers
Implement MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED with IPIs using cpumask built from all runqueues for which current thread's mm is the same as the thread calling sys_membarrier. It executes faster than the non-expedited variant (no blocking). It also works on NOHZ_FULL configurations. Scheduler-wise, it requires a memory barrier before and after context switching between processes (which have different mm). The memory barrier before context switch is already present. For the barrier after context switch: * Our TSO archs can do RELEASE without being a full barrier. Look at x86 spin_unlock() being a regular STORE for example. But for those archs, all atomics imply smp_mb and all of them have atomic ops in switch_mm() for mm_cpumask(), and on x86 the CR3 load acts as a full barrier. * From all weakly ordered machines, only ARM64 and PPC can do RELEASE, the rest does indeed do smp_mb(), so there the spin_unlock() is a full barrier and we're good. * ARM64 has a very heavy barrier in switch_to(), which suffices. * PPC just removed its barrier from switch_to(), but appears to be talking about adding something to switch_mm(). So add a smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() for now, until this is settled on the PPC side. Changes since v3: - Properly document the memory barriers provided by each architecture. Changes since v2: - Address comments from Peter Zijlstra, - Add smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() after finish_lock_switch() in finish_task_switch() to add the memory barrier we need after storing to rq->curr. This is much simpler than the previous approach relying on atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop(), which actually added a memory barrier in the common case of switching between userspace processes. - Return -EINVAL when MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED is used on a nohz_full kernel, rather than having the whole membarrier system call returning -ENOSYS. Indeed, CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED is compatible with nohz_full. Adapt the CMD_QUERY mask accordingly. Changes since v1: - move membarrier code under kernel/sched/ because it uses the scheduler runqueue, - only add the barrier when we switch from a kernel thread. The case where we switch from a user-space thread is already handled by the atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop(). - add a comment to mmdrop() documenting the requirement on the implicit memory barrier.

2017-08-10sched/fair: Fix wake_affine() for !NUMA_BALANCINGPeter Zijlstra
In commit: 3fed382b46ba ("sched/numa: Implement NUMA node level wake_affine()") Rik changed wake_affine to consider NUMA information when balancing between LLC domains. There are a number of problems here which this patch tries to address: - LLC < NODE; in this case we'd use the wrong information to balance - !NUMA_BALANCING: in this case, the new code doesn't do any balancing at all - re-computes the NUMA data for every wakeup, this can mean iterating up to 64 CPUs for every wakeup. - default affine wakeups inside a cache We address these by saving the load/capacity values for each sched_domain during regular load-balance and using these values in wake_affine_llc(). The obvious down-side to using cached values is that they can be too old and poorly reflect reality. But this way we can use LLC wide information and thus not rely on assuming LLC matches NODE. We also don't rely on NUMA_BALANCING nor do we have to aggegate two nodes (or even cache domains) worth of CPUs for each wakeup.

2017-08-10locking: Introduce smp_mb__after_spinlock()Peter Zijlstra
Since its inception, our understanding of ACQUIRE, esp. as applied to spinlocks, has changed somewhat. Also, I wonder if, with a simple change, we cannot make it provide more. The problem with the comment is that the STORE done by spin_lock isn't itself ordered by the ACQUIRE, and therefore a later LOAD can pass over it and cross with any prior STORE, rendering the default WMB insufficient (pointed out by Alan). Now, this is only really a problem on PowerPC and ARM64, both of which already defined smp_mb__before_spinlock() as a smp_mb(). At the same time, we can get a much stronger construct if we place that same barrier _inside_ the spin_lock(). In that case we upgrade the RCpc spinlock to an RCsc. That would make all schedule() calls fully transitive against one another.

2017-08-10sched/wait: Remove the lockless swait_active() check in swake_up*()Boqun Feng
Steven Rostedt reported a potential race in RCU core because of swake_up(): CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- __call_rcu_core() { spin_lock(rnp_root) need_wake = __rcu_start_gp() { rcu_start_gp_advanced() { gp_flags = FLAG_INIT } } rcu_gp_kthread() { swait_event_interruptible(wq, gp_flags & FLAG_INIT) { spin_lock(q->lock) *fetch wq->task_list here! * list_add(wq->task_list, q->task_list) spin_unlock(q->lock); *fetch old value of gp_flags here * spin_unlock(rnp_root) rcu_gp_kthread_wake() { swake_up(wq) { swait_active(wq) { list_empty(wq->task_list) } * return false * if (condition) * false * schedule(); In this case, a wakeup is missed, which could cause the rcu_gp_kthread waits for a long time. The reason of this is that we do a lockless swait_active() check in swake_up(). To fix this, we can either 1) add a smp_mb() in swake_up() before swait_active() to provide the proper order or 2) simply remove the swait_active() in swake_up(). The solution 2 not only fixes this problem but also keeps the swait and wait API as close as possible, as wake_up() doesn't provide a full barrier and doesn't do a lockless check of the wait queue either. Moreover, there are users already using swait_active() to do their quick checks for the wait queues, so it make less sense that swake_up() and swake_up_all() do this on their own. This patch then removes the lockless swait_active() check in swake_up() and swake_up_all().

2017-08-10sched/debug: Show task state in /proc/sched_debugXie XiuQi
Currently we print the runnable task in /proc/sched_debug, but there is no task state information. We don't know which task is in the runqueue and which task is sleeping. Add task state in the runnable task list, like this: runnable tasks: S task PID tree-key switches prio wait-time sum-exec sum-sleep ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- S watchdog/239 1452 -11.917445 2811 0 0.000000 8.949306 0.000000 7 0 / S migration/239 1453 20686.367740 8 0 0.000000 16215.720897 0.000000 7 0 / S ksoftirqd/239 1454 115383.841071 12 120 0.000000 0.200683 0.000000 7 0 / >R test 21287 4872.190970 407 120 0.000000 4874.911790 0.000000 7 0 /autogroup-150 R test 21288 4868.385454 401 120 0.000000 3672.341489 0.000000 7 0 /autogroup-150 R test 21289 4868.326776 384 120 0.000000 3424.934159 0.000000 7 0 /autogroup-150 Signed-off-by: Xie XiuQi <xiexiuqi@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: <cj.chengjian@huawei.com> Cc: <huawei.libin@huawei.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1502095463-160172-2-git-send-email-xiexiuqi@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2017-08-10sched/debug: Use task_pid_nr_ns in /proc/$pid/schedAleksa Sarai
It appears as though the addition of the PID namespace did not update the output code for /proc/*/sched, which resulted in it providing PIDs that were not self-consistent with the /proc mount. This additionally made it trivial to detect whether a process was inside &init_pid_ns from userspace, making container detection trivial: https://github.com/jessfraz/amicontained This leads to situations such as: % unshare -pmf % mount -t proc proc /proc % head -n1 /proc/1/sched head (10047, #threads: 1) Fix this by just using task_pid_nr_ns for the output of /proc/*/sched. All of the other uses of task_pid_nr in kernel/sched/debug.c are from a sysctl context and thus don't need to be namespaced.

2017-08-10sched/core: Remove unnecessary initialization init_idle_bootup_task()Cheng Jian
init_idle_bootup_task( ) is called in rest_init( ) to switch the scheduling class of the boot thread to the idle class. the function only sets: idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class; which has been set in init_idle() called by sched_init(): /* * The idle tasks have their own, simple scheduling class: */ idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class; We've already set the boot thread to idle class in start_kernel()->sched_init()->init_idle() so it's unnecessary to set it again in start_kernel()->rest_init()->init_idle_bootup_task() Signed-off-by: Cheng Jian <cj.chengjian@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Xie XiuQi <xiexiuqi@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: <huawei.libin@huawei.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1501838377-109720-1-git-send-email-cj.chengjian@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2017-08-10sched/deadline: Change return value of cpudl_find()Byungchul Park
cpudl_find() users are only interested in knowing if suitable CPU(s) were found or not (and then they look at later_mask to know which). Change cpudl_find() return type accordingly. Aligns with rt code.
