find_energy_efficient_cpu() integrates a margin to protect tasks from
bouncing back and forth from a CPU to another. This margin is set as being
6% of the total current energy estimated on the system. This however does
not work for two reasons:
1. The energy estimation is not a good absolute value:
compute_energy() used in feec() is a good estimation for task placement as
it allows to compare the energy with and without a task. The computed
delta will give a good overview of the cost for a certain task placement.
It, however, doesn't work as an absolute estimation for the total energy
of the system. First it adds the contribution to idle CPUs into the
energy, second it mixes util_avg with util_est values. util_avg contains
the near history for a CPU usage, it doesn't tell at all what the current
utilization is. A system that has been quite busy in the near past will
hold a very high energy and then a high margin preventing any task
migration to a lower capacity CPU, wasting energy. It even creates a
negative feedback loop: by holding the tasks on a less efficient CPU, the
margin contributes in keeping the energy high.
2. The margin handicaps small tasks:
On a system where the workload is composed mostly of small tasks (which is
often the case on Android), the overall energy will be high enough to
create a margin none of those tasks can cross. On a Pixel4, a small
utilization of 5% on all the CPUs creates a global estimated energy of 140
joules, as per the Energy Model declaration of that same device. This
means, after applying the 6% margin that any migration must save more than
8 joules to happen. No task with a utilization lower than 40 would then be
able to migrate away from the biggest CPU of the system.
The 6% of the overall system energy was brought by the following patch:
(eb92692b25 sched/fair: Speed-up energy-aware wake-ups)
It was previously 6% of the prev_cpu energy. Also, the following one
made this margin value conditional on the clusters where the task fits:
(8d4c97c105 sched/fair: Only compute base_energy_pd if necessary)
We could simply revert that margin change to what it was, but the original
version didn't have strong grounds neither and as demonstrated in (1.) the
estimated energy isn't a good absolute value. Instead, removing it
completely. It is indeed, made possible by recent changes that improved
energy estimation comparison fairness (sched/fair: Remove task_util from
effective utilization in feec()) (PM: EM: Increase energy calculation
precision) and task utilization stabilization (sched/fair: Decay task
util_avg during migration)
Without a margin, we could have feared bouncing between CPUs. But running
LISA's eas_behaviour test coverage on three different platforms (Hikey960,
RB-5 and DB-845) showed no issue.
Removing the energy margin enables more energy-optimized placements for a
more energy efficient system.

The energy estimation in find_energy_efficient_cpu() (feec()) relies on
the computation of the effective utilization for each CPU of a perf domain
(PD). This effective utilization is then used as an estimation of the busy
time for this pd. The function effective_cpu_util() which gives this value,
scales the utilization relative to IRQ pressure on the CPU to take into
account that the IRQ time is hidden from the task clock. The IRQ scaling is
as follow:
effective_cpu_util = irq + (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * util
Where util is the sum of CFS/RT/DL utilization, cpu_cap the capacity of
the CPU and irq the IRQ avg time.
If now we take as an example a task placement which doesn't raise the OPP
on the candidate CPU, we can write the energy delta as:
delta = OPPcost/cpu_cap * (effective_cpu_util(cpu_util + task_util) -
effective_cpu_util(cpu_util))
= OPPcost/cpu_cap * (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * task_util
We end-up with an energy delta depending on the IRQ avg time, which is a
problem: first the time spent on IRQs by a CPU has no effect on the
additional energy that would be consumed by a task. Second, we don't want
to favour a CPU with a higher IRQ avg time value.
Nonetheless, we need to take the IRQ avg time into account. If a task
placement raises the PD's frequency, it will increase the energy cost for
the entire time where the CPU is busy. A solution is to only use
effective_cpu_util() with the CPU contribution part. The task contribution
is added separately and scaled according to prev_cpu's IRQ time.
No change for the FREQUENCY_UTIL component of the energy estimation. We
still want to get the actual frequency that would be selected after the
task placement.

The Perf Domain (PD) cpumask (struct em_perf_domain.cpus) stays
invariant after Energy Model creation, i.e. it is not updated after
CPU hotplug operations.
That's why the PD mask is used in conjunction with the cpu_online_mask
(or Sched Domain cpumask). Thereby the cpu_online_mask is fetched
multiple times (in compute_energy()) during a run-queue selection
for a task.
cpu_online_mask may change during this time which can lead to wrong
energy calculations.
To be able to avoid this, use the select_rq_mask per-cpu cpumask to
create a cpumask out of PD cpumask and cpu_online_mask and pass it
through the function calls of the EAS run-queue selection path.
The PD cpumask for max_spare_cap_cpu/compute_prev_delta selection
(find_energy_efficient_cpu()) is now ANDed not only with the SD mask
but also with the cpu_online_mask. This is fine since this cpumask
has to be in syc with the one used for energy computation
(compute_energy()).
An exclusive cpuset setup with at least one asymmetric CPU capacity
island (hence the additional AND with the SD cpumask) is the obvious
exception here.

effective_cpu_util() already has a `int cpu' parameter which allows to
retrieve the CPU capacity scale factor (or maximum CPU capacity) inside
this function via an arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu).
A lot of code calling effective_cpu_util() (or the shim
sched_cpu_util()) needs the maximum CPU capacity, i.e. it will call
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() already.
But not having to pass it into effective_cpu_util() will make the EAS
wake-up code easier, especially when the maximum CPU capacity reduced
by the thermal pressure is passed through the EAS wake-up functions.
Due to the asymmetric CPU capacity support of arm/arm64 architectures,
arch_scale_cpu_capacity(int cpu) is a per-CPU variable read access via
per_cpu(cpu_scale, cpu) on such a system.
On all other architectures it is a a compile-time constant
(SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE).

Before being migrated to a new CPU, a task sees its PELT values
synchronized with rq last_update_time. Once done, that same task will also
have its sched_avg last_update_time reset. This means the time between
the migration and the last clock update will not be accounted for in
util_avg and a discontinuity will appear. This issue is amplified by the
PELT clock scaling. It takes currently one tick after the CPU being idle
to let clock_pelt catching up clock_task.
This is especially problematic for asymmetric CPU capacity systems which
need stable util_avg signals for task placement and energy estimation.
Ideally, this problem would be solved by updating the runqueue clocks
before the migration. But that would require taking the runqueue lock
which is quite expensive [1]. Instead estimate the missing time and update
the task util_avg with that value.
To that end, we need sched_clock_cpu() but it is a costly function. Limit
the usage to the case where the source CPU is idle as we know this is when
the clock is having the biggest risk of being outdated.
See comment in migrate_se_pelt_lag() for more details about how the PELT
value is estimated. Notice though this estimation doesn't take into account
IRQ and Paravirt time.

Users are for now cfs_rq.min_vruntime and sched_avg.last_update_time. To
accommodate the later where the copy lies outside of the structure
(cfs_rq.last_udpate_time_copy instead of sched_avg.last_update_time_copy),
use the _copy() version of those helpers.
Those new helpers encapsulate smp_rmb() and smp_wmb() synchronization and

The time spent in select_idle_cpu() is visible to netperf and might have a negative
impact.
[Symptom analysis]
The patch [1] from Mel Gorman has been applied to track the efficiency
of select_idle_sibling. Copy the indicators here:
SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%):
A ratio expressed as a percentage of runqueues scanned versus
idle CPUs found. A 100% efficiency indicates that the target,
prev or recent CPU of a task was idle at wakeup. The lower the
efficiency, the more runqueues were scanned before an idle CPU
was found.
SIS Domain Search Efficiency(dom_eff%):
Similar, except only for the slower SIS
patch.
SIS Fast Success Rate(fast_rate%):
Percentage of SIS that used target, prev or
recent CPUs.
SIS Success rate(success_rate%):
Percentage of scans that found an idle CPU.
The test is based on Aubrey's schedtests tool, including netperf, hackbench,
schbench and tbench.

According to the test above, if the system becomes busy, the
SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%) drops significantly. Although some
benchmarks would finally find an idle CPU(success_rate% = 100%), it is
doubtful whether it is worth it to search the whole LLC domain.
[Proposal]
It would be ideal to have a crystal ball to answer this question:
How many CPUs must a wakeup path walk down, before it can find an idle
CPU? Many potential metrics could be used to predict the number.
One candidate is the sum of util_avg in this LLC domain. The benefit
of choosing util_avg is that it is a metric of accumulated historic
activity, which seems to be smoother than instantaneous metrics
(such as rq->nr_running). Besides, choosing the sum of util_avg
would help predict the load of the LLC domain more precisely, because
SIS_PROP uses one CPU's idle time to estimate the total LLC domain idle
time.
In summary, the lower the util_avg is, the more select_idle_cpu()
should scan for idle CPU, and vice versa. When the sum of util_avg
in this LLC domain hits 85% or above, the scan stops. The reason to
choose 85% as the threshold is that this is the imbalance_pct(117)
when a LLC sched group is overloaded.
Introduce the quadratic function:
y = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - p * x^2
and y'= y / SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
x is the ratio of sum_util compared to the CPU capacity:
x = sum_util / (llc_weight * SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE)
y' is the ratio of CPUs to be scanned in the LLC domain,
and the number of CPUs to scan is calculated by:
nr_scan = llc_weight * y'
Choosing quadratic function is because:
[1] Compared to the linear function, it scans more aggressively when the
sum_util is low.
[2] Compared to the exponential function, it is easier to calculate.
[3] It seems that there is no accurate mapping between the sum of util_avg
and the number of CPUs to be scanned. Use heuristic scan for now.
For a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util% 0 5 15 25 35 45 55 65 75 85 86 ...
scan_nr 112 111 108 102 93 81 65 47 25 1 0 ...
For a platform with 16 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util% 0 5 15 25 35 45 55 65 75 85 86 ...
scan_nr 16 15 15 14 13 11 9 6 3 0 0 ...
Furthermore, to minimize the overhead of calculating the metrics in
select_idle_cpu(), borrow the statistics from periodic load balance.
As mentioned by Abel, on a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the
sum_util calculated by periodic load balance after 112 ms would
decay to about 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.7 = 8.75%, thus bringing a delay
in reflecting the latest utilization. But it is a trade-off.
Checking the util_avg in newidle load balance would be more frequent,
but it brings overhead - multiple CPUs write/read the per-LLC shared
variable and introduces cache contention. Tim also mentioned that,
it is allowed to be non-optimal in terms of scheduling for the
short-term variations, but if there is a long-term trend in the load
behavior, the scheduler can adjust for that.
When SIS_UTIL is enabled, the select_idle_cpu() uses the nr_scan
calculated by SIS_UTIL instead of the one from SIS_PROP. As Peter and
Mel suggested, SIS_UTIL should be enabled by default.
This patch is based on the util_avg, which is very sensitive to the
CPU frequency invariance. There is an issue that, when the max frequency
has been clamp, the util_avg would decay insanely fast when
the CPU is idle. Commit addca28512 ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Handle no_turbo
in frequency invariance") could be used to mitigate this symptom, by adjusting
the arch_max_freq_ratio when turbo is disabled. But this issue is still
not thoroughly fixed, because the current code is unaware of the user-specified
max CPU frequency.

5842896 +162.7% 15347978 sched_debug.cpu.sis_search.avg
There is -87.9% less CPU scans after patched, which indicates lower overhead.
Besides, with this patch applied, there is -13% less rq lock contention
in perf-profile.calltrace.cycles-pp._raw_spin_lock.raw_spin_rq_lock_nested
.try_to_wake_up.default_wake_function.woken_wake_function.
This might help explain the performance improvement - Because this patch allows
the waking task to remain on the previous CPU, rather than grabbing other CPUs'
lock.

*Consider the Standard Deviation, this -7.36% regression might not be valid.
Also, a OLTP workload with a commercial RDBMS has been tested, and there
is no significant change.
There were concerns that unbalanced tasks among CPUs would cause problems.
For example, suppose the LLC domain is composed of 8 CPUs, and 7 tasks are
bound to CPU0~CPU6, while CPU7 is idle:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3 CPU4 CPU5 CPU6 CPU7
util_avg 1024 1024 1024 1024 1024 1024 1024 0
Since the util_avg ratio is 87.5%( = 7/8 ), which is higher than 85%,
select_idle_cpu() will not scan, thus CPU7 is undetected during scan.
But according to Mel, it is unlikely the CPU7 will be idle all the time
because CPU7 could pull some tasks via CPU_NEWLY_IDLE.
lkp(kernel test robot) has reported a regression on stress-ng.sock on a
very busy system. According to the sched_debug statistics, it might be caused
by SIS_UTIL terminates the scan and chooses a previous CPU earlier, and this
might introduce more context switch, especially involuntary preemption, which
impacts a busy stress-ng. This regression has shown that, not all benchmarks
in every scenario benefit from idle CPU scan limit, and it needs further
investigation.
Besides, there is slight regression in hackbench's 16 groups case when the
LLC domain has 16 CPUs. Prateek mentioned that we should scan aggressively
in an LLC domain with 16 CPUs. Because the cost to search for an idle one
among 16 CPUs is negligible. The current patch aims to propose a generic
solution and only considers the util_avg. Something like the below could
be applied on top of the current patch to fulfill the requirement:
if (llc_weight <= 16)
nr_scan = nr_scan * 32 / llc_weight;
For LLC domain with 16 CPUs, the nr_scan will be expanded to 2 times large.
The smaller the CPU number this LLC domain has, the larger nr_scan will be
expanded. This needs further investigation.
There is also ongoing work[2] from Abel to filter out the busy CPUs during
wakeup, to further speed up the idle CPU scan. And it could be a following-up
optimization on top of this change.

sched_setattr(2) issues via kernel/sched/core.c:__sched_setscheduler()
a CAP_SYS_NICE audit event unconditionally, even when the requested
operation does not require that capability / is unprivileged, i.e. for
reducing niceness.
This is relevant in connection with SELinux, where a capability check
results in a policy decision and by default a denial message on
insufficient permission is issued.
It can lead to three undesired cases:
1. A denial message is generated, even in case the operation was an
unprivileged one and thus the syscall succeeded, creating noise.
2. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to ignore
those denial messages, hiding future syscalls, where the task
performs an actual privileged operation, leading to hidden limited
functionality of that task.
3. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to allow
the task the capability CAP_SYS_NICE, while it does not need it,
violating the principle of least privilege.
Conduct privilged/unprivileged categorization first and perform a
capable test (and at most once) only if needed.

Currently, the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period kthread IPIs each online CPU
using smp_call_function_single() in order to track any tasks currently in
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections during which the corresponding
task has neither blocked nor been preempted. These IPIs are annoying
and are also not strictly necessary because any task that blocks or is
preempted within its current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section
will be tracked on one of the per-CPU rcu_tasks_percpu structure's
->rtp_blkd_tasks list. So the only time that this is a problem is if
one of the CPUs runs through a long-duration RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section without a context switch.
Note that the task_call_func() function cannot help here because there is
no safe way to identify the target task. Of course, the task_call_func()
function will be very useful later, when processing the list of tasks,
but it needs to know the task.
This commit therefore creates a cpu_curr_snapshot() function that returns
a pointer the task_struct structure of some task that happened to be
running on the specified CPU more or less during the time that the
cpu_curr_snapshot() function was executing. If there was no context
switch during this time, this function will return a pointer to the
task_struct structure of the task that was running throughout. If there
was a context switch, then the outgoing task will be taken care of by
RCU's context-switch hook, and the incoming task was either already taken
care during some previous context switch, or it is not currently within an
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section. And in this latter case, the
grace period already started, so there is no need to wait on this task.
This new cpu_curr_snapshot() function is invoked on each CPU early in
the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period processing, and the resulting tasks
are queued for later quiescent-state inspection.

Wakelist can help avoid cache bouncing and offload the overhead of waker
cpu. So far, using wakelist within the same llc only happens on
WF_ON_CPU, and this limitation could be removed to further improve
wakeup performance.
The commit 518cd62341 ("sched: Only queue remote wakeups when
crossing cache boundaries") disabled queuing tasks on wakelist when
the cpus share llc. This is because, at that time, the scheduler must
send IPIs to do ttwu_queue_wakelist. Nowadays, ttwu_queue_wakelist also
supports TIF_POLLING, so this is not a problem now when the wakee cpu is
in idle polling.
Benefits:
Queuing the task on idle cpu can help improving performance on waker cpu
and utilization on wakee cpu, and further improve locality because
the wakee cpu can handle its own rq. This patch helps improving rt on
our real java workloads where wakeup happens frequently.
Consider the normal condition (CPU0 and CPU1 share same llc)
Before this patch:
CPU0 CPU1
select_task_rq() idle
rq_lock(CPU1->rq)
enqueue_task(CPU1->rq)
notify CPU1 (by sending IPI or CPU1 polling)
resched()
After this patch:
CPU0 CPU1
select_task_rq() idle
add to wakelist of CPU1
notify CPU1 (by sending IPI or CPU1 polling)
rq_lock(CPU1->rq)
enqueue_task(CPU1->rq)
resched()
We see CPU0 can finish its work earlier. It only needs to put task to
wakelist and return.
While CPU1 is idle, so let itself handle its own runqueue data.
This patch brings no difference about IPI.
This patch only takes effect when the wakee cpu is:
1) idle polling
2) idle not polling
For 1), there will be no IPI with or without this patch.
For 2), there will always be an IPI before or after this patch.
Before this patch: waker cpu will enqueue task and check preempt. Since
"idle" will be sure to be preempted, waker cpu must send a resched IPI.
After this patch: waker cpu will put the task to the wakelist of wakee
cpu, and send an IPI.

The commit 2ebb177175 ("sched/core: Offload wakee task activation if it
the wakee is descheduling") checked rq->nr_running <= 1 to avoid task
stacking when WF_ON_CPU.
Per the ordering of writes to p->on_rq and p->on_cpu, observing p->on_cpu
(WF_ON_CPU) in ttwu_queue_cond() implies !p->on_rq, IOW p has gone through
the deactivate_task() in __schedule(), thus p has been accounted out of
rq->nr_running. As such, the task being the only runnable task on the rq
implies reading rq->nr_running == 0 at that point.
The benchmark result is in [1].

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.

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

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

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 31bc6aeaab ("sched/fair: Optimize update_blocked_averages()")
commit fe61468b2c ("sched/fair: Fix enqueue_task_fair warning")
commit b34cb07dde ("sched/fair: Fix enqueue_task_fair() warning some more")
commit 39f23ce07b ("sched/fair: Fix unthrottle_cfs_rq() for leaf_cfs_rq list")

commit a7b359fc6a ("sched/fair: Correctly insert cfs_rq's to list on unthrottle")
commit fdaba61ef8 ("sched/fair: Ensure that the CFS parent is added after unthrottling")
commit 2630cde267 ("sched/fair: Add ancestors of unthrottled undecayed cfs_rq")
commit 31bc6aeaab ("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.

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: e496132ebe ("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:

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. 230.784222: 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.

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.

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.

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
or are within the same NUMA group, it's simply shuffling tasks around
without having any impact on the compute imbalance. Instead, it's just
punishing one task to help another.

On clone, numa_migrate_retry is inherited from the parent which means
that the first NUMA placement of a task is non-deterministic. This
affects when load balancing recognises numa tasks and whether to
migrate "regular", "remote" or "all" tasks between NUMA scheduler

The purpose of balance_push() is to act as a filter on task selection
in the case of CPU hotplug, specifically when taking the CPU out.
It does this by (ab)using the balance callback infrastructure, with
the express purpose of keeping all the unlikely/odd cases in a single
place.
In order to serve its purpose, the balance_push_callback needs to be
(exclusively) on the callback list at all times (noting that the
callback always places itself back on the list the moment it runs,
also noting that when the CPU goes down, regular balancing concerns
are moot, so ignoring them is fine).
And here-in lies the problem, __sched_setscheduler()'s use of
splice_balance_callbacks() takes the callbacks off the list across a
lock-break, making it possible for, an interleaving, __schedule() to
see an empty list and not get filtered.

Pull scheduler fix from Thomas Gleixner:
"Fix the fallout of sysctl code move which placed the init function
wrong"
* tag 'sched-urgent-2022-06-05' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
sched/autogroup: Fix sysctl move
of Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite
I identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own
and move make resolving the other problems much simpler.
The biggest issue is the habbit of the ptrace code to change task->__state
from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up the tracee. No
other code in the kernel does that and it is straight forward to update
signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary.
Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and
then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying
on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can
tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state.
The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in
task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for
the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as
serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that
direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake
ups and become an ordinary stop state.
The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers for
a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped in
the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved
register values of a task.
There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found
while looking at these issues.
One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit 57b6de08b5
("ptrace: Admit ptrace_stop can generate spuriuos SIGTRAPs"). This
makes a change that is technically user space visible, in the handling
of what happens to a tracee when a tracer dies unexpectedly.
According to our testing and our understanding of userspace nothing
cares that spurious SIGTRAPs can be generated in that case.

In commit 40966e316f ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for
all kthreads") caused init and the user mode helper threads that call
kernel_execve to have struct kthread allocated for them. This struct
kthread going away during execve in turned made a use after free of
struct kthread possible.
The commit 343f4c49f2 ("kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for
init and umh") is enough to fix the use after free and is simple enough
to be backportable.
The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things
up and cause the code to make sense.
In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks
I ran into two complications. The function task_tick_numa was
detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of
PF_KTHREAD. The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using
flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors
was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace thread.
I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review
I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code sitting
in linux-next.

Merge tag 'kthread-cleanups-for-v5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull kthread updates from Eric Biederman:
"This updates init and user mode helper tasks to be ordinary user mode
tasks.
Commit 40966e316f ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for
all kthreads") caused init and the user mode helper threads that call
kernel_execve to have struct kthread allocated for them. This struct
kthread going away during execve in turned made a use after free of
struct kthread possible.
Here, commit 343f4c49f2 ("kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for
init and umh") is enough to fix the use after free and is simple
enough to be backportable.
The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things
up and cause the code to make sense.
In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks
I ran into two complications. The function task_tick_numa was
detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of
PF_KTHREAD. The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using
flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors
was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace
thread.
I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review
I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code
sitting in linux-next"

For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and
all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups
going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request,
just cleanups.
I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a
pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes
have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while.
The last change was merged May 4th.
Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed.
To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request
I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which
moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.

Because GCC-12 is fully stupid about array bounds and it's just really
hard to get a solid array definition from a linker script, flip the

Commit fa2c3254d7 (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting
sched_switch event, 2022-01-20) added a new prev_state argument to the
sched_switch tracepoint, before the prev task_struct pointer.
This reordering of arguments broke BPF programs that use the raw
tracepoint (e.g. tp_btf programs). The type of the second argument has
changed and existing programs that assume a task_struct* argument
(e.g. for bpf_task_storage access) will now fail to verify.
If we instead append the new argument to the end, all existing programs
would continue to work and can conditionally extract the prev_state
argument on supported kernel versions.

Stop playing with tsk->__state to remove TASK_WAKEKILL while a ptrace
command is executing.
Instead remove TASK_WAKEKILL from the definition of TASK_TRACED, and
implement a new jobctl flag TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN. This new flag is set
in jobctl_freeze_task and cleared when ptrace_stop is awoken or in
jobctl_unfreeze_task (when ptrace_stop remains asleep).
In signal_wake_up add __TASK_TRACED to state along with TASK_WAKEKILL
when the wake up is for a fatal signal. Skip adding __TASK_TRACED
when TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN is not set. This has the same effect as
changing TASK_TRACED to __TASK_TRACED as all of the wake_ups that use
TASK_KILLABLE go through signal_wake_up.
Handle a ptrace_stop being called with a pending fatal signal.
Previously it would have been handled by schedule simply failing to
sleep. As TASK_WAKEKILL is no longer part of TASK_TRACED schedule
will sleep with a fatal_signal_pending. The code in signal_wake_up
guarantees that the code will be awaked by any fatal signal that
codes after TASK_TRACED is set.
Previously the __state value of __TASK_TRACED was changed to
TASK_RUNNING when woken up or back to TASK_TRACED when the code was
left in ptrace_stop. Now when woken up ptrace_stop now clears
JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN and when left sleeping ptrace_unfreezed_traced
clears JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN.

With the change to init and the user mode helper processes to not have
PF_KTHREAD set before they call kernel_execve the PF_KTHREAD test in
task_tick_numa became insufficient to detect all tasks that have
"->mm == NULL". Correct that by testing for "->mm == NULL" directly.

When we use raw_spin_rq_lock() to acquire the rq lock and have to
update the rq clock while holding the lock, the kernel may issue
a WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.
Since we directly use raw_spin_rq_lock() to acquire rq lock instead of
rq_lock(), there is no corresponding change to rq->clock_update_flags.
In particular, we have obtained the rq lock of other CPUs, the
rq->clock_update_flags of this CPU may be RQCF_UPDATED at this time, and
then calling update_rq_clock() will trigger the WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.
So we need to clear RQCF_UPDATED of rq->clock_update_flags to avoid
the WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.
For the sched_rt_period_timer() and migrate_task_rq_dl() cases
we simply replace raw_spin_rq_lock()/raw_spin_rq_unlock() with
rq_lock()/rq_unlock().
For the {pull,push}_{rt,dl}_task() cases, we add the
double_rq_clock_clear_update() function to clear RQCF_UPDATED of
rq->clock_update_flags, and call double_rq_clock_clear_update()
before double_lock_balance()/double_rq_lock() returns to avoid the
WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.

We no longer need them as we can use DWARF debug info or BTF + pahole to
re-generate the required structs to compile against them for a given
kernel.
This moves the burden of maintaining these helper functions to the
module.
https://github.com/qais-yousef/sched_tp
Note that pahole v1.15 is required at least for using DWARF. And for BTF
v1.23 which is not yet released will be required. There's alignment
problem that will lead to crashes in earlier versions when used with
BTF.
We should have enough infrastructure to make these helper functions now
obsolete, so remove them.

Except the 'task has no contribution or is new' condition at the
beginning of cpu_util_without(), which it shares with the load and
runnable counterpart functions, a cpu_util_next(..., dst_cpu = -1)

The UTIL_EST specific check that task util_est has to be subtracted
from the CPU one in case of an enqueued (or current (to cater for the
wakeup - lb race)) task has to be moved to cpu_util_next().
This was initially introduced by commit c469933e77

Martin find it confusing when look at the /proc/pressure/cpu output,
and found no hint about that CPU "full" line in psi Documentation.
% cat /proc/pressure/cpu
some avg10=0.92 avg60=0.91 avg300=0.73 total=933490489
full avg10=0.22 avg60=0.23 avg300=0.16 total=358783277
The PSI_CPU_FULL state is introduced by commit e7fcd76228
("psi: Add PSI_CPU_FULL state"), which mainly for cgroup level,
but also counted at the system level as a side effect.
Naturally, the FULL state doesn't exist for the CPU resource at
the system level. These "full" numbers can come from CPU idle
schedule latency. For example, t1 is the time when task wakeup
on an idle CPU, t2 is the time when CPU pick and switch to it.
The delta of (t2 - t1) will be in CPU_FULL state.
Another case all processes can be stalled is when all cgroups
have been throttled at the same time, which unlikely to happen.
Anyway, CPU_FULL metric is meaningless and confusing at the
system level. So this patch will report zeroes for CPU full
at the system level, and update psi Documentation accordingly.

The warning in cfs_rq_is_decayed() triggered:
SCHED_WARN_ON(cfs_rq->avg.load_avg ||
cfs_rq->avg.util_avg ||
cfs_rq->avg.runnable_avg)
There exists a corner case in attach_entity_load_avg() which will
cause load_sum to be zero while load_avg will not be.
Consider se_weight is 88761 as per the sched_prio_to_weight[] table.
Further assume the get_pelt_divider() is 47742, this gives:
se->avg.load_avg is 1.
However, calculating load_sum:
se->avg.load_sum = div_u64(se->avg.load_avg * se->avg.load_sum, se_weight(se));
se->avg.load_sum = 1*47742/88761 = 0.
Then enqueue_load_avg() adds this to the cfs_rq totals:
cfs_rq->avg.load_avg += se->avg.load_avg;
cfs_rq->avg.load_sum += se_weight(se) * se->avg.load_sum;
Resulting in load_avg being 1 with load_sum is 0, which will trigger
the WARN.

a migration disabled section while not on the CPU. In this case the task

Steve reported that ChromeOS encounters the forceidle balancer being
ran from rt_mutex_setprio()'s balance_callback() invocation and
explodes.
Now, the forceidle balancer gets queued every time the idle task gets
selected, set_next_task(), which is strictly too often.
rt_mutex_setprio() also uses set_next_task() in the 'change' pattern:
queued = task_on_rq_queued(p); /* p->on_rq == TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED */
running = task_current(rq, p); /* rq->curr == p */
if (queued)
dequeue_task(...);
if (running)
put_prev_task(...);
/* change task properties */
if (queued)
enqueue_task(...);
if (running)
set_next_task(...);
However, rt_mutex_setprio() will explicitly not run this pattern on
the idle task (since priority boosting the idle task is quite insane).
Most other 'change' pattern users are pidhash based and would also not
apply to idle.
Also, the change pattern doesn't contain a __balance_callback()
invocation and hence we could have an out-of-band balance-callback,
which *should* trigger the WARN in rq_pin_lock() (which guards against
this exact anti-pattern).
So while none of that explains how this happens, it does indicate that
having it in set_next_task() might not be the most robust option.
Instead, explicitly queue the forceidle balancer from pick_next_task()
when it does indeed result in forceidle selection. Having it here,
ensures it can only be triggered under the __schedule() rq->lock
instance, and hence must be ran from that context.
This also happens to clean up the code a little, so win-win.

This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of
the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing
permission check to ptrace.c
The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major
source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was
around task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled
making the semantics clearer).
For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to
implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and
was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many
years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little
bit at a time. To the point where now anything left in tracehook.h is
some weird strange thing that is difficult to understand.

Pull ptrace cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of
the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing
permission check to ptrace.c
The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major
source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was around
task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the
semantics clearer).
For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to
implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and
was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many
years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little
bit at a time. To the point where anything left in tracehook.h was
some weird strange thing that was difficult to understand"

With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have
multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The
memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system,
because the performance of the different types of memory are usually
different.
In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc,
some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this
patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page
placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold
dynamically.
In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow
memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be
put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory
will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node).
That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is
regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in
the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the
existing NUMA balancing mechanism.
The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the
free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This
is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes
the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize
page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows.
It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is
larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's
unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always
no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot
pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory
node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows,
a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages
from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will
create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger
the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory
node will be demoted to the slow memory node.
b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than
wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach
such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote
hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free
pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake
up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and
free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we
might have a chance of doing so.
The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node.
If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure
may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload
is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered.
The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory
pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop
earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the
normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented.
A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the
high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor.
In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets,
the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page
placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the
sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward
compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these
functionality individually.
The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The
definition of the flags is,
- 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED
- 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL
- 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING
We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark
with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address
distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent
Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can
improve up to 95.9%.
Thanks Andrew Morton to help fix the document format error.

Qian Cai reported a boot crash on arm64 systems, caused by:
0fb3978b0a ("sched/numa: Fix NUMA topology for systems with CPU-less nodes")
The bug is that node_state() must be supplied a valid node_states[] array index,
but in task_numa_placement() the max_nid search can fail with NUMA_NO_NODE,
which is not a valid index.
Fix it by checking that max_nid is a valid index.

While investigating the sparse warning reported by the LKP bot [1],
observed that we have a redundant variable "top" in the function
build_sched_domains that was introduced in the recent commit
e496132ebe ("sched/fair: Adjust the allowed NUMA imbalance when
SD_NUMA spans multiple LLCs")
The existing variable "sd" suffices which allows us to remove the
redundant variable "top" while annotating the other variable "top_p"
with the "__rcu" annotation to silence the sparse warning.

Both functions are doing almost the same, that is checking if admission
control is still respected.
With exclusive cpusets, dl_task_can_attach() checks if the destination
cpuset (i.e. its root domain) has enough CPU capacity to accommodate the
task.
dl_cpu_busy() checks if there is enough CPU capacity in the cpuset in
case the CPU is hot-plugged out.
dl_task_can_attach() is used to check if a task can be admitted while
dl_cpu_busy() is used to check if a CPU can be hotplugged out.
Make dl_cpu_busy() able to deal with a task and use it instead of
dl_task_can_attach() in task_can_attach().

As of commit
c6e7bd7afa ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
the following sequence becomes possible:
p->__state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
__schedule()
deactivate_task(p);
ttwu()
READ !p->on_rq
p->__state=TASK_WAKING
trace_sched_switch()
__trace_sched_switch_state()
task_state_index()
return 0;
TASK_WAKING isn't in TASK_REPORT, so the task appears as TASK_RUNNING in
the trace event.
Prevent this by pushing the value read from __schedule() down the trace
event.

John reported that push_rt_task() can end up invoking
find_lowest_rq(rq->curr) when curr is not an RT task (in this case a CFS
one), which causes mayhem down convert_prio().
This can happen when current gets demoted to e.g. CFS when releasing an
rt_mutex, and the local CPU gets hit with an rto_push_work irqwork before
getting the chance to reschedule. Exactly who triggers this work isn't
entirely clear to me - switched_from_rt() only invokes rt_queue_pull_task()
if there are no RT tasks on the local RQ, which means the local CPU can't
be in the rto_mask.
My current suspected sequence is something along the lines of the below,
with the demoted task being current.
mark_wakeup_next_waiter()
rt_mutex_adjust_prio()
rt_mutex_setprio() // deboost originally-CFS task
check_class_changed()
switched_from_rt() // Only rt_queue_pull_task() if !rq->rt.rt_nr_running
switched_to_fair() // Sets need_resched
__balance_callbacks() // if pull_rt_task(), tell_cpu_to_push() can't select local CPU per the above
raw_spin_rq_unlock(rq)
// need_resched is set, so task_woken_rt() can't
// invoke push_rt_tasks(). Best I can come up with is
// local CPU has rt_nr_migratory >= 2 after the demotion, so stays
// in the rto_mask, and then:
<some other CPU running rto_push_irq_work_func() queues rto_push_work on this CPU>
push_rt_task()
// breakage follows here as rq->curr is CFS
Move an existing check to check rq->curr vs the next pushable task's
priority before getting anywhere near find_lowest_rq(). While at it, add an
explicit sched_class of rq->curr check prior to invoking
find_lowest_rq(rq->curr). Align the DL logic to also reschedule regardless
of next_task's migratability.

The cpuacct_account_field() is always called by the current task
itself, so it's ok to use __this_cpu_add() to charge the tick time.
But cpuacct_charge() maybe called by update_curr() in load_balance()
on a random CPU, different from the CPU on which the task is running.
So __this_cpu_add() will charge that cputime to a random incorrect CPU.

kernel/sched/sched.h is a weird mix of ad-hoc headers included

Two of them rely on being included in the middle of kernel/sched/sched.h,
due to definitions they require:
- "stat.h" needs the rq definitions.
- "autogroup.h" needs the task_group definition.

Where an architecture selects HAVE_STATIC_CALL but not
HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, each static call has an out-of-line trampoline
which will either branch to a callee or return to the caller.
On such architectures, a number of constraints can conspire to make
those trampolines more complicated and potentially less useful than we'd
like. For example:
* Hardware and software control flow integrity schemes can require the
addition of "landing pad" instructions (e.g. `BTI` for arm64), which
will also be present at the "real" callee.
* Limited branch ranges can require that trampolines generate or load an
address into a register and perform an indirect branch (or at least
have a slow path that does so). This loses some of the benefits of
having a direct branch.
* Interaction with SW CFI schemes can be complicated and fragile, e.g.
requiring that we can recognise idiomatic codegen and remove
indirections understand, at least until clang proves more helpful
mechanisms for dealing with this.
For PREEMPT_DYNAMIC, we don't need the full power of static calls, as we
really only need to enable/disable specific preemption functions. We can
achieve the same effect without a number of the pain points above by
using static keys to fold early returns into the preemption functions
themselves rather than in an out-of-line trampoline, effectively
inlining the trampoline into the start of the function.
For arm64, this results in good code generation. For example, the
dynamic_cond_resched() wrapper looks as follows when enabled. When
disabled, the first `B` is replaced with a `NOP`, resulting in an early
return.
| <dynamic_cond_resched>:
| bti c
| b <dynamic_cond_resched+0x10> // or `nop`
| mov w0, #0x0
| ret
| mrs x0, sp_el0
| ldr x0, [x0, #8]
| cbnz x0, <dynamic_cond_resched+0x8>
| paciasp
| stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
| mov x29, sp
| bl <preempt_schedule_common>
| mov w0, #0x1
| ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16
| autiasp
| ret
... compared to the regular form of the function:
| <__cond_resched>:
| bti c
| mrs x0, sp_el0
| ldr x1, [x0, #8]
| cbz x1, <__cond_resched+0x18>

Any architecture which implements static keys should be able to use this
to implement PREEMPT_DYNAMIC with similar cost to non-inlined static
calls. Since this is likely to have greater overhead than (inlined)
static calls, PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is only defaulted to enabled when
HAVE_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC_CALL is selected.

Currently sched_dynamic_update needs to open-code the enabled/disabled
function names for each preemption model it supports, when in practice
this is a boolean enabled/disabled state for each function.
Make this clearer and avoid repetition by defining the enabled/disabled
states at the function definition, and using helper macros to perform the
static_call_update(). Where x86 currently overrides the enabled
function, it is made to provide both the enabled and disabled states for
consistency, with defaults provided by the core code otherwise.
In subsequent patches this will allow us to support PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
without static calls.

The PREEMPT_DYNAMIC logic in kernel/sched/core.c patches static calls
for a bunch of preemption functions. While most are defined prior to
this, the definition of cond_resched() is later in the file, and so we
only have its declarations from include/linux/sched.h.
In subsequent patches we'd like to define some macros alongside the
definition of each of the preemption functions, which we can use within
sched_dynamic_update(). For this to be possible, the PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
logic needs to be placed after the various preemption functions.
As a preparatory step, this patch moves the PREEMPT_DYNAMIC logic after
the various preemption functions, with no other changes -- this is
purely a move.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

When a new threshold breaching stall happens after a psi event was
generated and within the window duration, the new event is not
generated because the events are rate-limited to one per window. If
after that no new stall is recorded then the event will not be
generated even after rate-limiting duration has passed. This is
happening because with no new stall, window_update will not be called
even though threshold was previously breached. To fix this, record
threshold breaching occurrence and generate the event once window
duration is passed.

In a typical memory tiering system, there's no CPU in slow (PMEM) NUMA
nodes. But if the number of the hint page faults on a PMEM node is
the max for a task, The current NUMA balancing policy may try to place
the task on the PMEM node instead of DRAM node. This is unreasonable,
because there's no CPU in PMEM NUMA nodes. To fix this, CPU-less
nodes are ignored when searching the migration target node for a task
in this patch.
To test the patch, we run a workload that accesses more memory in PMEM
node than memory in DRAM node. Without the patch, the PMEM node will
be chosen as preferred node in task_numa_placement(). While the DRAM
node will be chosen instead with the patch.

3: 28 17 28 10
In this system, there are only 2 sockets. In each memory controller,
both DRAM and PMEM DIMMs are installed. Although the physical NUMA
topology is simple, the logical NUMA topology becomes a little
complex. Because both the distance(0, 1) and distance (1, 3) are less
than the distance (0, 3), it appears that node 1 sits between node 0
and node 3. And the whole system appears to be a glueless mesh NUMA
topology type. But it's definitely not, there is even no CPU in node 3.
This isn't a practical problem now yet. Because the PMEM nodes (node
2 and node 3 in example system) are offlined by default during system
boot. So init_numa_topology_type() called during system boot will
ignore them and set sched_numa_topology_type to NUMA_DIRECT. And
init_numa_topology_type() is only called at runtime when a CPU of a
never-onlined-before node gets plugged in. And there's no CPU in the
PMEM nodes. But it appears better to fix this to make the code more
robust.
To test the potential problem. We have used a debug patch to call
init_numa_topology_type() when the PMEM node is onlined (in
__set_migration_target_nodes()). With that, the NUMA parameters
identified by scheduler is as follows,
sched_numa_topology_type: NUMA_GLUELESS_MESH
sched_domains_numa_levels: 4
sched_max_numa_distance: 28
To fix the issue, the CPU-less nodes are ignored when the NUMA topology
parameters are identified. Because a node may become CPU-less or not
at run time because of CPU hotplug, the NUMA topology parameters need
to be re-initialized at runtime for CPU hotplug too.
With the patch, the NUMA parameters identified for the example system
above is as follows,
sched_numa_topology_type: NUMA_DIRECT
sched_domains_numa_levels: 2
sched_max_numa_distance: 21

In some places, kernel/sched code calls cpumask_weight() to check if
any bit of a given cpumask is set. We can do it more efficiently with

soon as it finds first set bit, while cpumask_weight() counts all bits

Commit 7d2b5dd0bc ("sched/numa: Allow a floating imbalance between NUMA
nodes") allowed an imbalance between NUMA nodes such that communicating
tasks would not be pulled apart by the load balancer. This works fine when
there is a 1:1 relationship between LLC and node but can be suboptimal
for multiple LLCs if independent tasks prematurely use CPUs sharing cache.
Zen* has multiple LLCs per node with local memory channels and due to
the allowed imbalance, it's far harder to tune some workloads to run
optimally than it is on hardware that has 1 LLC per node. This patch
allows an imbalance to exist up to the point where LLCs should be balanced
between nodes.
On a Zen3 machine running STREAM parallelised with OMP to have on instance
per LLC the results and without binding, the results are

There are inconsistencies when determining if a NUMA imbalance is allowed
that should be corrected.
o allow_numa_imbalance changes types and is not always examining
the destination group so both the type should be corrected as
well as the naming.
o find_idlest_group uses the sched_domain's weight instead of the
group weight which is different to find_busiest_group
o find_busiest_group uses the source group instead of the destination
which is different to task_numa_find_cpu
o Both find_idlest_group and find_busiest_group should account
for the number of running tasks if a move was allowed to be
consistent with task_numa_find_cpu

Syzbot found a GPF in reweight_entity. This has been bisected to
commit 4ef0c5c6b5 ("kernel/sched: Fix sched_fork() access an invalid
sched_task_group")
There is a race between sched_post_fork() and setpriority(PRIO_PGRP)
within a thread group that causes a null-ptr-deref in
reweight_entity() in CFS. The scenario is that the main process spawns
number of new threads, which then call setpriority(PRIO_PGRP, 0, -20),
wait, and exit. For each of the new threads the copy_process() gets
invoked, which adds the new task_struct and calls sched_post_fork()
for it.
In the above scenario there is a possibility that
setpriority(PRIO_PGRP) and set_one_prio() will be called for a thread
in the group that is just being created by copy_process(), and for
which the sched_post_fork() has not been executed yet. This will
trigger a null pointer dereference in reweight_entity(), as it will
try to access the run queue pointer, which hasn't been set.
Before the mentioned change the cfs_rq pointer for the task has been
set in sched_fork(), which is called much earlier in copy_process(),
before the new task is added to the thread_group. Now it is done in
the sched_post_fork(), which is called after that. To fix the issue
the remove the update_load param from the update_load param() function
and call reweight_task() only if the task flag doesn't have the
TASK_NEW flag set.
Fixes: 4ef0c5c6b5 ("kernel/sched: Fix sched_fork() access an invalid sched_task_group")

iowait_boost signal is applied independently of util and doesn't take
into account uclamp settings of the rq. An io heavy task that is capped
by uclamp_max could still request higher frequency because
sugov_iowait_apply() doesn't clamp the boost via uclamp_rq_util_with()
like effective_cpu_util() does.
Make sure that iowait_boost honours uclamp requests by calling
uclamp_rq_util_with() when applying the boost.

sugov_update_single_{freq, perf}() contains a 'busy' filter that ensures
we don't bring the frqeuency down if there's no idle time (CPU is busy).
The problem is that with uclamp_max we will have scenarios where a busy
task is capped to run at a lower frequency and this filter prevents
applying the capping when this task starts running.
We handle this by skipping the filter when uclamp is enabled and the rq
is being capped by uclamp_max.
We introduce a new function uclamp_rq_is_capped() to help detecting when
this capping is taking effect. Some code shuffling was required to allow
using cpu_util_{cfs, rt}() in this new function.
On 2 Core SMT2 Intel laptop I see:
Without this patch:
uclampset -M 0 sysbench --test=cpu --threads = 4 run
produces a score of ~3200 consistently. Which is the highest possible.
Compiling the kernel also results in frequency running at max 3.1GHz all
the time - running uclampset -M 400 to cap it has no effect without this
patch.
With this patch:
uclampset -M 0 sysbench --test=cpu --threads = 4 run
produces a score of ~1100 with some outliers in ~1700. Uclamp max
aggregates the performance requirements, so having high values sometimes
is expected if some other task happens to require that frequency starts
running at the same time.
When compiling the kernel with uclampset -M 400 I can see the
frequencies mostly in the ~2GHz region. Helpful to conserve power and
prevent heating when not plugged in.

The membarrier command MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY allows querying the
available membarrier commands. When the membarrier-rseq fence commands
were added, a new MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK was
introduced with the intent to expose them with the MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY
command, the but it was never added to MEMBARRIER_CMD_BITMASK.
The membarrier-rseq fence commands are therefore not wired up with the
query command.
Rename MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK to
MEMBARRIER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK (the bitmask is not a command
per-se), and change the erroneous
MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK (which does not
actually exist) to MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ.
Wire up MEMBARRIER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ_BITMASK in

There are two types of forced idle time: forced idle time from cookie'd
task and forced idle time form uncookie'd task. The forced idle time from
uncookie'd task is actually caused by the cookie'd task in runqueue
indirectly, and it's more accurate to measure the capacity loss with the
sum of both.
Assuming cpu x and cpu y are a pair of SMT siblings, consider the
following scenarios:
1.There's a cookie'd task running on cpu x, and there're 4 uncookie'd
tasks running on cpu y. For cpu x, there will be 80% forced idle time
(from uncookie'd task); for cpu y, there will be 20% forced idle time
(from cookie'd task).
2.There's a uncookie'd task running on cpu x, and there're 4 cookie'd
tasks running on cpu y. For cpu x, there will be 80% forced idle time
(from cookie'd task); for cpu y, there will be 20% forced idle time
(from uncookie'd task).
The scenario1 can recurrent by stress-ng(scenario2 can recurrent similary):
(cookie'd)taskset -c x stress-ng -c 1 -l 100
(uncookie'd)taskset -c y stress-ng -c 4 -l 100
In the above two scenarios, the total capacity loss is 1 cpu, but in
scenario1, the cookie'd forced idle time tells us 20% cpu capacity loss, in
scenario2, the cookie'd forced idle time tells us 80% cpu capacity loss,
which are not accurate. It'll be more accurate to measure with cookie'd
forced idle time and uncookie'd forced idle time.

Rick reported performance regressions in bugzilla because of cpu frequency
being lower than before:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215045
He bisected the problem to:
commit 1c35b07e6d ("sched/fair: Ensure _sum and _avg values stay consistent")
This commit forces util_sum to be synced with the new util_avg after
removing the contribution of a task and before the next periodic sync. By
doing so util_sum is rounded to its lower bound and might lost up to
LOAD_AVG_MAX-1 of accumulated contribution which has not yet been
reflected in util_avg.
update_tg_cfs_util() is not the only place where we round util_sum and
lost some accumulated contributions that are not already reflected in
util_avg. Modify update_tg_cfs_util() and detach_entity_load_avg() to not
sync util_sum with the new util_avg. Instead of always setting util_sum to
the low bound of util_avg, which can significantly lower the utilization,
we propagate the difference. In addition, we also check that cfs's util_sum
always stays above the lower bound for a given util_avg as it has been
observed that sched_entity's util_sum is sometimes above cfs one.

With write operation on psi files replacing old trigger with a new one,
the lifetime of its waitqueue is totally arbitrary. Overwriting an
existing trigger causes its waitqueue to be freed and pending poll()
will stumble on trigger->event_wait which was destroyed.
Fix this by disallowing to redefine an existing psi trigger. If a write
operation is used on a file descriptor with an already existing psi
trigger, the operation will fail with EBUSY error.
Also bypass a check for psi_disabled in the psi_trigger_destroy as the
flag can be flipped after the trigger is created, leading to a memory
leak.

Pull signal/exit/ptrace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes deletes some dead code, makes a lot of cleanups
which hopefully make the code easier to follow, and fixes bugs found
along the way.
The end-game which I have not yet reached yet is for fatal signals
that generate coredumps to be short-circuit deliverable from
complete_signal, for force_siginfo_to_task not to require changing
userspace configured signal delivery state, and for the ptrace stops
to always happen in locations where we can guarantee on all
architectures that the all of the registers are saved and available on
the stack.
Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task
are the big successes for dead code removal this round.
A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues
reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I
simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes
they were fixing.
There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I
dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with
something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some
rebasing.
Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls
to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of
struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the
pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The
flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed. The field group_exit_task is
removed. Issues where task->exit_code was examined with
signal->group_exit_code should been examined were fixed.
There are several loosely related changes included because I am
cleaning up and if I don't include them they will probably get lost.

The point of using set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer was that
it already did what is necessary. There are now restrictions on when
set_child_tid can be initialized and when set_child_tid can be used in
schedule_tail. Which indicates that continuing to use set_child_tid
to hold the kthread pointer is a bad idea.
Instead of continuing to use the set_child_tid field of task_struct
generalize the pf_io_worker field of task_struct and use it to hold
the kthread pointer.
Rename pf_io_worker (which is a void * pointer) to worker_private so
it can be used to store kthreads struct kthread pointer. Update the
kthread code to store the kthread pointer in the worker_private field.
Remove the places where set_child_tid had to be dealt with carefully
because kthreads also used it.

Kernel threads abuse set_child_tid. Historically that has been fine
as set_child_tid was initialized after the kernel thread had been
forked. Unfortunately storing struct kthread in set_child_tid after
the thread is running makes struct kthread being unusable for storing
result codes of the thread.
When set_child_tid is set to struct kthread during fork that results
in schedule_tail writing the thread id to the beggining of struct
kthread (if put_user does not realize it is a kernel address).
Solve this by skipping the put_user for all kthreads.

Today the rules are a bit iffy and arbitrary about which kernel
threads have struct kthread present. Both idle threads and thread
started with create_kthread want struct kthread present so that is
effectively all kernel threads. Make the rule that if PF_KTHREAD
and the task is running then struct kthread is present.
This will allow the kernel thread code to using tsk->exit_code
with different semantics from ordinary processes.
To make ensure that struct kthread is present for all
kernel threads move it's allocation into copy_process.
Add a deallocation of struct kthread in exec for processes
that were kernel threads.
Move the allocation of struct kthread for the initial thread

cpu_util_cfs() was created by commit d4edd662ac ("sched/cpufreq: Use
the DEADLINE utilization signal") to enable the access to CPU
utilization from the Schedutil CPUfreq governor.
Commit a07630b8b2 ("sched/cpufreq/schedutil: Use util_est for OPP
selection") added util_est support later.
The only thing cpu_util() is doing on top of what cpu_util_cfs() already
does is to clamp the return value to the [0..capacity_orig] capacity
range of the CPU. Integrating this into cpu_util_cfs() is not harming
the existing users (Schedutil and CPUfreq cooling (latter via
sched_cpu_util() wrapper)).
For straightforwardness, prefer to keep using `int cpu` as the function
parameter over using `struct rq *rq` which might avoid some calls to
cpu_rq(cpu) -> per_cpu(runqueues, cpu) -> RELOC_HIDE().
Update cfs_util()'s documentation and reuse it for cpu_util_cfs().
Remove cpu_util().

There's no fundamental reason to disable KCSAN for scheduler code,
except for excessive noise and performance concerns (instrumenting
scheduler code is usually a good way to stress test KCSAN itself).
However, several core sched functions imply memory barriers that are
invisible to KCSAN without instrumentation, but are required to avoid
false positives. Therefore, unconditionally enable instrumentation of
memory barriers in scheduler code. Also update the comment to reflect
this and be a bit more brief.

Several ->poll() implementations are special in that they use a
waitqueue whose lifetime is the current task, rather than the struct
file as is normally the case. This is okay for blocking polls, since a
blocking poll occurs within one task; however, non-blocking polls
require another solution. This solution is for the queue to be cleared
before it is freed, using 'wake_up_poll(wq, EPOLLHUP | POLLFREE);'.
However, that has a bug: wake_up_poll() calls __wake_up() with
nr_exclusive=1. Therefore, if there are multiple "exclusive" waiters,
and the wakeup function for the first one returns a positive value, only
that one will be called. That's *not* what's needed for POLLFREE;
POLLFREE is special in that it really needs to wake up everyone.
Considering the three non-blocking poll systems:
- io_uring poll doesn't handle POLLFREE at all, so it is broken anyway.
- aio poll is unaffected, since it doesn't support exclusive waits.
However, that's fragile, as someone could add this feature later.
- epoll doesn't appear to be broken by this, since its wakeup function
returns 0 when it sees POLLFREE. But this is fragile.
Although there is a workaround (see epoll), it's better to define a
function which always sends POLLFREE to all waiters. Add such a
function. Also make it verify that the queue really becomes empty after
all waiters have been woken up.

Commit d81ae8aac8 ("sched/uclamp: Fix initialization of struct
uclamp_rq") introduced a bug where uclamp_max of the rq is not reset to
match the woken up task's uclamp_max when the rq is idle.
The code was relying on rq->uclamp_max initialized to zero, so on first
enqueue
static inline void uclamp_rq_inc_id(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p,
enum uclamp_id clamp_id)
{
...
if (uc_se->value > READ_ONCE(uc_rq->value))
WRITE_ONCE(uc_rq->value, uc_se->value);
}
was actually resetting it. But since commit d81ae8aac8 changed the
default to 1024, this no longer works. And since rq->uclamp_flags is
also initialized to 0, neither above code path nor uclamp_idle_reset()
update the rq->uclamp_max on first wake up from idle.
This is only visible from first wake up(s) until the first dequeue to
idle after enabling the static key. And it only matters if the
uclamp_max of this task is < 1024 since only then its uclamp_max will be
effectively ignored.
Fix it by properly initializing rq->uclamp_flags = UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE to
ensure uclamp_idle_reset() is called which then will update the rq
uclamp_max value as expected.

Some thread flags can be set remotely, and so even when IRQs are disabled,

To avoid such issues, a snapshot of the flags has to be taken prior to
using them. Some places already use READ_ONCE() for that, others do not.

To hot unplug a CPU, the idle task on that CPU calls a few layers of C
code before finally leaving the kernel. When KASAN is in use, poisoned
shadow is left around for each of the active stack frames, and when
shadow call stacks are in use. When shadow call stacks (SCS) are in use
the task's saved SCS SP is left pointing at an arbitrary point within
the task's shadow call stack.
When a CPU is offlined than onlined back into the kernel, this stale
state can adversely affect execution. Stale KASAN shadow can alias new
stackframes and result in bogus KASAN warnings. A stale SCS SP is
effectively a memory leak, and prevents a portion of the shadow call
stack being used. Across a number of hotplug cycles the idle task's
entire shadow call stack can become unusable.
We previously fixed the KASAN issue in commit:
e1b77c9298 ("sched/kasan: remove stale KASAN poison after hotplug")
... by removing any stale KASAN stack poison immediately prior to
onlining a CPU.
Subsequently in commit:
f1a0a376ca ("sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled")
... the refactoring left the KASAN and SCS cleanup in one-time idle
thread initialization code rather than something invoked prior to each
CPU being onlined, breaking both as above.
We fixed SCS (but not KASAN) in commit:
63acd42c0d ("sched/scs: Reset the shadow stack when idle_task_exit")
... but as this runs in the context of the idle task being offlined it's
potentially fragile.
To fix these consistently and more robustly, reset the SCS SP and KASAN
shadow of a CPU's idle task immediately before we online that CPU in
bringup_cpu(). This ensures the idle task always has a consistent state
when it is running, and removes the need to so so when exiting an idle
task.
Whenever any thread is created, dup_task_struct() will give the task a
stack which is free of KASAN shadow, and initialize the task's SCS SP,
so there's no need to specially initialize either for idle thread within
init_idle(), as this was only necessary to handle hotplug cycles.
I've tested this on arm64 with:
* gcc 11.1.0, defconfig +KASAN_INLINE, KASAN_STACK
* clang 12.0.0, defconfig +KASAN_INLINE, KASAN_STACK, SHADOW_CALL_STACK
... offlining and onlining CPUS with:
| while true; do
| for C in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online; do
| echo 0 > $C;
| echo 1 > $C;
| done
| done

The first one uses cpuacct_account_field() to account times

The second one is uses cpuacct_charge() function for accounting and

guest the cpuacct_charge() accounts most of the guest time as

We've noticed cases where tasks in a cgroup are stalled on memory but
there is little memory FULL pressure since tasks stay on the runqueue
in reclaim.
A simple example involves a single threaded program that keeps leaking
and touching large amounts of memory. It runs in a cgroup with swap
enabled, memory.high set at 10M and cpu.max ratio set at 5%. Though
there is significant CPU pressure and memory SOME, there is barely any
memory FULL since the task enters reclaim and stays on the runqueue.
However, this memory-bound task is effectively stalled on memory and
we expect memory FULL to match memory SOME in this scenario.
The code is confused about memstall && running, thinking there is a
stalled task and a productive task when there's only one task: a
reclaimer that's counted as both. To fix this, we redefine the
condition for PSI_MEM_FULL to check that all running tasks are in an
active memstall instead of checking that there are no running tasks.
case PSI_MEM_FULL:
- return unlikely(tasks[NR_MEMSTALL] && !tasks[NR_RUNNING]);
+ return unlikely(tasks[NR_MEMSTALL] &&
+ tasks[NR_RUNNING] == tasks[NR_MEMSTALL_RUNNING]);
This will capture reclaimers. It will also capture tasks that called
psi_memstall_enter() and are about to sleep, but this should be
negligible noise.

Adds accounting for "forced idle" time, which is time where a cookie'd
task forces its SMT sibling to idle, despite the presence of runnable
tasks.
Forced idle time is one means to measure the cost of enabling core
scheduling (ie. the capacity lost due to the need to force idle).
Forced idle time is attributed to the thread responsible for causing
the forced idle.
A few details:
- Forced idle time is displayed via /proc/PID/sched. It also requires
that schedstats is enabled.
- Forced idle is only accounted when a sibling hyperthread is held
idle despite the presence of runnable tasks. No time is charged if
a sibling is idle but has no runnable tasks.
- Tasks with 0 cookie are never charged forced idle.
- For SMT > 2, we scale the amount of forced idle charged based on the
number of forced idle siblings. Additionally, we split the time up and
evenly charge it to all running tasks, as each is equally responsible
for the forced idle.

Commit c597bfddc9 ("sched: Provide Kconfig support for default dynamic
preempt mode") changed the selectable config names for the preemption
model. This means a config file must now select
CONFIG_PREEMPT_BEHAVIOUR=y
rather than
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
to get a preemptible kernel. This means all arch config files would need to
be updated - right now they'll all end up with the default
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE_BEHAVIOUR.
Rather than touch a good hundred of config files, restore usage of
CONFIG_PREEMPT{_NONE, _VOLUNTARY}. Make them configure:
o The build-time preemption model when !PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
o The default boot-time preemption model when PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
Add siblings of those configs with the _BUILD suffix to unconditionally
designate the build-time preemption model (PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is built with
the "highest" preemption model it supports, aka PREEMPT). Downstream
configs should by now all be depending / selected by CONFIG_PREEMPTION
rather than CONFIG_PREEMPT, so only a few sites need patching up.

Kevin is reporting crashes which point to a use-after-free of a cfs_rq
in update_blocked_averages(). Initial debugging revealed that we've
live cfs_rq's (on_list=1) in an about to be kfree()'d task group in
free_fair_sched_group(). However, it was unclear how that can happen.
His kernel config happened to lead to a layout of struct sched_entity
that put the 'my_q' member directly into the middle of the object
which makes it incidentally overlap with SLUB's freelist pointer.
That, in combination with SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED's freelist pointer
mangling, leads to a reliable access violation in form of a #GP which
made the UAF fail fast.
Michal seems to have run into the same issue[1]. He already correctly
diagnosed that commit a7b359fc6a ("sched/fair: Correctly insert
cfs_rq's to list on unthrottle") is causing the preconditions for the
UAF to happen by re-adding cfs_rq's also to task groups that have no
more running tasks, i.e. also to dead ones. His analysis, however,
misses the real root cause and it cannot be seen from the crash
backtrace only, as the real offender is tg_unthrottle_up() getting
called via sched_cfs_period_timer() via the timer interrupt at an
inconvenient time.
When unregister_fair_sched_group() unlinks all cfs_rq's from the dying
task group, it doesn't protect itself from getting interrupted. If the
timer interrupt triggers while we iterate over all CPUs or after
unregister_fair_sched_group() has finished but prior to unlinking the
task group, sched_cfs_period_timer() will execute and walk the list of
task groups, trying to unthrottle cfs_rq's, i.e. re-add them to the
dying task group. These will later -- in free_fair_sched_group() -- be
kfree()'ed while still being linked, leading to the fireworks Kevin
and Michal are seeing.
To fix this race, ensure the dying task group gets unlinked first.
However, simply switching the order of unregistering and unlinking the
task group isn't sufficient, as concurrent RCU walkers might still see
it, as can be seen below:

CPU 2 walks the task group list in parallel to sched_offline_group(),
specifically, it'll read the soon to be unlinked task group entry at
(1). Unlinking it on CPU 1 at (2) therefore won't prevent CPU 2 from
still passing it on to tg_unthrottle_up(). CPU 1 now tries to unlink
all cfs_rq's via list_del_leaf_cfs_rq() in
unregister_fair_sched_group(). Meanwhile CPU 2 will re-add some of
these at (3), which is the cause of the UAF later on.
To prevent this additional race from happening, we need to wait until
walk_tg_tree_from() has finished traversing the task groups, i.e.
after the RCU read critical section ends in (4). Afterwards we're safe
to call unregister_fair_sched_group(), as each new walk won't see the
dying task group any more.
On top of that, we need to wait yet another RCU grace period after
unregister_fair_sched_group() to ensure print_cfs_stats(), which might
run concurrently, always sees valid objects, i.e. not already free'd
ones.
This patch survives Michal's reproducer[2] for 8h+ now, which used to
trigger within minutes before.

Nothing protects the access to the per_cpu variable sd_llc_id. When testing
the same CPU (i.e. this_cpu == that_cpu), a race condition exists with
update_top_cache_domain(). One scenario being:
CPU1 CPU2
==================================================================
per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => 0
partition_sched_domains_locked()
detach_destroy_domains()
cpus_share_cache(CPUX, CPUX) update_top_cache_domain(CPUX)
per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => 0
per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) = CPUX
per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => CPUX
return false
ttwu_queue_cond() wouldn't catch smp_processor_id() == cpu and the result
is a warning triggered from ttwu_queue_wakelist().
Avoid a such race in cpus_share_cache() by always returning true when
this_cpu == that_cpu.

Pull prctl updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the missing prctl uapi pieces for PR_SCHED_CORE.
In order to activate core scheduling the caller is expected to specify
the scope of the new core scheduling domain.
For example, passing 2 in the 4th argument of
prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_CREATE, <pid>, 2, 0);
would indicate that the new core scheduling domain encompasses all
tasks in the process group of <pid>. Specifying 0 would only create a
core scheduling domain for the thread identified by <pid> and 2 would
encompass the whole thread-group of <pid>.
Note, the values 0, 1, and 2 correspond to PIDTYPE_PID, PIDTYPE_TGID,
and PIDTYPE_PGID. A first version tried to expose those values
directly to which I objected because:
- PIDTYPE_* is an enum that is kernel internal which we should not
expose to userspace directly.
- PIDTYPE_* indicates what a given struct pid is used for it doesn't
express a scope.
But what the 4th argument of PR_SCHED_CORE prctl() expresses is the
scope of the operation, i.e. the scope of the core scheduling domain
at creation time. So Eugene's patch now simply introduces three new
defines PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_THREAD, PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_THREAD_GROUP,
and PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_PROCESS_GROUP. They simply express what
happens.
This has been on the mailing list for quite a while with all relevant
scheduler folks Cced. I announced multiple times that I'd pick this up
if I don't see or her anyone else doing it. None of this touches
proper scheduler code but only concerns uapi so I think this is fine.
With core scheduling being quite common now for vm managers (e.g.
moving individual vcpu threads into their own core scheduling domain)
and container managers (e.g. moving the init process into its own core
scheduling domain and letting all created children inherit it) having
to rely on raw numbers passed as the 4th argument in prctl() is a bit
annoying and everyone is starting to come up with their own defines"

Patch series "Fix NUMA without SMP".
SuperH is the only architecture which still supports NUMA without SMP,
for good reasons (various memories scattered around the address space,
each with varying latencies).
This series fixes two build errors due to variables and functions used
by the NUMA code being provided by SMP-only source files or sections.
This patch (of 2):
If CONFIG_NUMA=y, but CONFIG_SMP=n (e.g. sh/migor_defconfig):
sh4-linux-gnu-ld: mm/page_alloc.o: in function `get_page_from_freelist':
page_alloc.c:(.text+0x2c24): undefined reference to `node_reclaim_distance'
Fix this by moving the declaration of node_reclaim_distance from an
SMP-only to a generic file.

Cross-architecture update to move task_struct::cpu back into thread_info
on arm64, x86, s390, powerpc, and riscv. All Acked by arch maintainers.
Quoting Ard Biesheuvel:
"Move task_struct::cpu back into thread_info
Keeping CPU in task_struct is problematic for architectures that define
raw_smp_processor_id() in terms of this field, as it requires
linux/sched.h to be included, which causes a lot of pain in terms of
circular dependencies (aka 'header soup')
This series moves it back into thread_info (where it came from) for all

update_next_balance() uses sd->last_balance which is not modified by
load_balance() so we can merge the 2 calls in one place.

In newidle_balance(), the scheduler skips load balance to the new idle cpu
when the 1st sd of this_rq is:
this_rq->avg_idle < sd->max_newidle_lb_cost
Doing a costly call to update_blocked_averages() will not be useful and
simply adds overhead when this condition is true.
Check the condition early in newidle_balance() to skip
update_blocked_averages() when possible.

Commit f1a0a376ca ("sched/core: Initialize the idle task with
preemption disabled") removed the init_idle() call from
idle_thread_get(). This was the sole call-path on hotplug that resets
the Shadow Call Stack (scs) Stack Pointer (sp).
Not resetting the scs-sp leads to scs overflow after enough hotplug
cycles. Therefore add an explicit scs_task_reset() to the hotplug code
to make sure the scs-sp does get reset on hotplug.

There is a small race between copy_process() and sched_fork()

cgroup at <2>;
(3) the sched_task_group and cfs_rq that belong to the old cgroup

When deciding to pull tasks in ASYM_PACKING, it is necessary not only to
check for the idle state of the destination CPU, dst_cpu, but also of
its SMT siblings.
If dst_cpu is idle but its SMT siblings are busy, performance suffers
if it pulls tasks from a medium priority CPU that does not have SMT
siblings.

siblings of both dst_cpu and the CPUs in the candidate busiest group.

After we make the struct sched_statistics and the helpers of it
independent of fair sched class, we can easily use the schedstats
facility for deadline sched class.
The schedstat usage in DL sched class is similar with fair sched class,
for example,
fair deadline
enqueue update_stats_enqueue_fair update_stats_enqueue_dl
dequeue update_stats_dequeue_fair update_stats_dequeue_dl
put_prev_task update_stats_wait_start update_stats_wait_start_dl
set_next_task update_stats_wait_end update_stats_wait_end_dl
The user can get the schedstats information in the same way in fair sched
class. For example,
fair deadline
/proc/[pid]/sched /proc/[pid]/sched

The runtime of a DL task has already been there, so we only need to
add a tracepoint.
One difference between fair task and DL task is that there is no vruntime
in dl task. To reuse the sched_stat_runtime tracepoint, '0' is passed as
vruntime for DL task.
The output of this tracepoint for DL task as follows,

We want to measure the latency of RT tasks in our production
environment with schedstats facility, but currently schedstats is only
supported for fair sched class. This patch enable it for RT sched class
as well.
After we make the struct sched_statistics and the helpers of it
independent of fair sched class, we can easily use the schedstats
facility for RT sched class.
The schedstat usage in RT sched class is similar with fair sched class,
for example,
fair RT
enqueue update_stats_enqueue_fair update_stats_enqueue_rt
dequeue update_stats_dequeue_fair update_stats_dequeue_rt
put_prev_task update_stats_wait_start update_stats_wait_start_rt
set_next_task update_stats_wait_end update_stats_wait_end_rt
The user can get the schedstats information in the same way in fair sched
class. For example,
fair RT
/proc/[pid]/sched /proc/[pid]/sched
schedstats is not supported for RT group.
The output of a RT task's schedstats as follows,
$ cat /proc/10349/sched

Currently in schedstats we have sum_sleep_runtime and iowait_sum, but
there's no metric to show how long the task is in D state. Once a task in
D state, it means the task is blocked in the kernel, for example the
task may be waiting for a mutex. The D state is more frequent than
iowait, and it is more critital than S state. So it is worth to add a
metric to measure it.

The original prototype of the schedstats helpers are
update_stats_wait_*(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se)
The cfs_rq in these helpers is used to get the rq_clock, and the se is
used to get the struct sched_statistics and the struct task_struct. In
order to make these helpers available by all sched classes, we can pass
the rq, sched_statistics and task_struct directly.
Then the new helpers are
update_stats_wait_*(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p,
struct sched_statistics *stats)
which are independent of fair sched class.
To avoid vmlinux growing too large or introducing ovehead when
!schedstat_enabled(), some new helpers after schedstat_enabled() are also
introduced, Suggested by Mel. These helpers are in sched/stats.c,
__update_stats_wait_*(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p,
struct sched_statistics *stats)
The size of vmlinux as follows,
Before After
Size of vmlinux 826308552 826304640
The size is a litte smaller as some functions are not inlined again after
the change.
I also compared the sched performance with 'perf bench sched pipe',
suggested by Mel. The result as followsi (in usecs/op),
Before After
kernel.sched_schedstats=0 5.2~5.4 5.2~5.4
kernel.sched_schedstats=1 5.3~5.5 5.3~5.5
[These data is a little difference with the prev version, that is
because my old test machine is destroyed so I have to use a new

If we want to use the schedstats facility to trace other sched classes, we
should make it independent of fair sched class. The struct sched_statistics
is the schedular statistics of a task_struct or a task_group. So we can
move it into struct task_struct and struct task_group to achieve the goal.
After the patch, schestats are orgnized as follows,
struct task_struct {
...
struct sched_entity se;
struct sched_rt_entity rt;
struct sched_dl_entity dl;
...
struct sched_statistics stats;
...
};
Regarding the task group, schedstats is only supported for fair group
sched, and a new struct sched_entity_stats is introduced, suggested by
Peter -
struct sched_entity_stats {
struct sched_entity se;
struct sched_statistics stats;
} __no_randomize_layout;
Then with the se in a task_group, we can easily get the stats.
The sched_statistics members may be frequently modified when schedstats is
enabled, in order to avoid impacting on random data which may in the same
cacheline with them, the struct sched_statistics is defined as cacheline
aligned.
As this patch changes the core struct of scheduler, so I verified the
performance it may impact on the scheduler with 'perf bench sched
pipe', suggested by Mel. Below is the result, in which all the values
are in usecs/op.
Before After
kernel.sched_schedstats=0 5.2~5.4 5.2~5.4
kernel.sched_schedstats=1 5.3~5.5 5.3~5.5
[These data is a little difference with the earlier version, that is

Give reduced sleeper credit to SCHED_IDLE entities. As a result, woken
SCHED_IDLE entities will take longer to preempt normal entities.
The benefit of this change is to make it less likely that a newly woken
SCHED_IDLE entity will preempt a short-running normal entity before it
blocks.
We still give a small sleeper credit to SCHED_IDLE entities, so that
idle<->idle competition retains some fairness.
Example: With HZ=1000, spawned four threads affined to one cpu, one of
which was set to SCHED_IDLE. Without this patch, wakeup latency for the
SCHED_IDLE thread was ~1-2ms, with the patch the wakeup latency was
~5ms.

Use a small, non-scaled min granularity for SCHED_IDLE entities, when
competing with normal entities. This reduces the latency of getting
a normal entity back on cpu, at the expense of increased context
switch frequency of SCHED_IDLE entities.
The benefit of this change is to reduce the round-robin latency for
normal entities when competing with a SCHED_IDLE entity.
Example: on a machine with HZ=1000, spawned two threads, one of which is
SCHED_IDLE, and affined to one cpu. Without this patch, the SCHED_IDLE
thread runs for 4ms then waits for 1.4s. With this patch, it runs for
1ms and waits 340ms (as it round-robins with the other thread).

With PREEMPT_RT enabled all hrtimers callbacks will be invoked in
softirq mode unless they are explicitly marked as HRTIMER_MODE_HARD.
During boot kthread_bind() is used for the creation of per-CPU threads
and then hangs in wait_task_inactive() if the ksoftirqd is not
yet up and running.
The hang disappeared since commit
26c7295be0 ("kthread: Do not preempt current task if it is going to call schedule()")
but enabling function trace on boot reliably leads to the freeze on boot
behaviour again.
The timer in wait_task_inactive() can not be directly used by a user
interface to abuse it and create a mass wake up of several tasks at the
same time leading to long sections with disabled interrupts.
Therefore it is safe to make the timer HRTIMER_MODE_REL_HARD.
Switch the timer to HRTIMER_MODE_REL_HARD.

Consider a system with some NOHZ-idle CPUs, such that
nohz.idle_cpus_mask = S
nohz.next_balance = T
When a new CPU k goes NOHZ idle (nohz_balance_enter_idle()), we end up
with:
nohz.idle_cpus_mask = S \U {k}
nohz.next_balance = T
Note that the nohz.next_balance hasn't changed - it won't be updated until
a NOHZ balance is triggered. This is problematic if the newly NOHZ idle CPU
has an earlier rq.next_balance than the other NOHZ idle CPUs, IOW if:
cpu_rq(k).next_balance < nohz.next_balance
In such scenarios, the existing nohz.next_balance will prevent any NOHZ
balance from happening, which itself will prevent nohz.next_balance from
being updated to this new cpu_rq(k).next_balance. Unnecessary load balance
delays of over 12ms caused by this were observed on an arm64 RB5 board.
Use the new nohz.needs_update flag to mark the presence of newly-idle CPUs
that need their rq->next_balance to be collated into
nohz.next_balance. Trigger a NOHZ_NEXT_KICK when the flag is set.

Since commit a7b359fc6a ("sched/fair: Correctly insert cfs_rq's to
list on unthrottle") we add cfs_rqs with no runnable tasks but not fully
decayed into the load (leaf) list. We may ignore adding some ancestors
and therefore breaking tmp_alone_branch invariant. This broke LTP test
cfs_bandwidth01 and it was partially fixed in commit fdaba61ef8
("sched/fair: Ensure that the CFS parent is added after unthrottling").
I noticed the named test still fails even with the fix (but with low
probability, 1 in ~1000 executions of the test). The reason is when
bailing out of unthrottle_cfs_rq early, we may miss adding ancestors of
the unthrottled cfs_rq, thus, not joining tmp_alone_branch properly.
Fix this by adding ancestors if we notice the unthrottled cfs_rq was
added to the load list.

might_sleep() output is pretty informative, but can be confusing at times
especially with PREEMPT_RCU when the check triggers due to a voluntary
sleep inside a RCU read side critical section:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:110
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
Preemption disabled at: migrate_disable+0x33/0xa0
in_atomic() is 0, but it still tells that preemption was disabled at
migrate_disable(), which is completely useless because preemption is not
disabled. But the interesting information to decode the above, i.e. the RCU
nesting depth, is not printed.
That becomes even more confusing when might_sleep() is invoked from
cond_resched_lock() within a RCU read side critical section. Here the
expected preemption count is 1 and not 0.
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:131
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
Preemption disabled at: test_cond_lock+0xf3/0x1c0
So in_atomic() is set, which is expected as the caller holds a spinlock,
but it's unclear why this is broken and the preempt disable IP is just
pointing at the correct place, i.e. spin_lock(), which is obviously not
helpful either.
Make that more useful in general:
- Print preempt_count() and the expected value
and for the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU case:
- Print the RCU read side critical section nesting depth
- Print the preempt disable IP only when preempt count
does not have the expected value.
So the might_sleep() dump from a within a preemptible RCU read side
critical section becomes:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:110
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
preempt_count: 0, expected: 0
RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0
and the cond_resched_lock() case becomes:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c:141
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 415, name: kworker/u112:52
preempt_count: 1, expected: 1
RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0
which makes is pretty obvious what's going on. For all other cases the
preempt disable IP is still printed as before:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/test.c: 156
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: swapper/0
preempt_count: 1, expected: 0

__might_sleep() vs. ___might_sleep() is hard to distinguish. Aside of that
the three underscore variant is exposed to provide a checkpoint for
rescheduling points which are distinct from blocking points.
They are semantically a preemption point which means that scheduling is
state preserving. A real blocking operation, e.g. mutex_lock(), wait*(),
which cannot preserve a task state which is not equal to RUNNING.
While technically blocking on a "sleeping" spinlock in RT enabled kernels
falls into the voluntary scheduling category because it has to wait until
the contended spin/rw lock becomes available, the RT lock substitution code
can semantically be mapped to a voluntary preemption because the RT lock
substitution code and the scheduler are providing mechanisms to preserve
the task state and to take regular non-lock related wakeups into account.
Rename ___might_sleep() to __might_resched() to make the distinction of
these functions clear.

THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK moved the CPU field out of thread_info, but this
causes some issues on architectures that define raw_smp_processor_id()
in terms of this field, due to the fact that #include'ing linux/sched.h
to get at struct task_struct is problematic in terms of circular
dependencies.
Given that thread_info and task_struct are the same data structure
anyway when THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, let's move it back so that having
access to the type definition of struct thread_info is sufficient to
reference the CPU number of the current task.
Note that this requires THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK's definition of the
task_thread_info() helper to be updated, as task_cpu() takes a
pointer-to-const, whereas task_thread_info() (which is used to generate
lvalues as well), needs a non-const pointer. So make it a macro instead.

sched: Prevent balance_push() on remote runqueues
sched/idle: Make the idle timer expire in hard interrupt context
sched_setscheduler() and rt_mutex_setprio() invoke the run-queue balance
callback after changing priorities or the scheduling class of a task. The
run-queue for which the callback is invoked can be local or remote.
That's not a problem for the regular rq::push_work which is serialized with
a busy flag in the run-queue struct, but for the balance_push() work which
is only valid to be invoked on the outgoing CPU that's wrong. It not only
triggers the debug warning, but also leaves the per CPU variable push_work
unprotected, which can result in double enqueues on the stop machine list.
Remove the warning and validate that the function is invoked on the
outgoing CPU.

The intel powerclamp driver will setup a per-CPU worker with RT
priority. The worker will then invoke play_idle() in which it remains in
the idle poll loop until it is stopped by the timer it started earlier.
That timer needs to expire in hard interrupt context on PREEMPT_RT.
Otherwise the timer will expire in ksoftirqd as a SOFT timer but that task
won't be scheduled on the CPU because its priority is lower than the
priority of the worker which is in the idle loop.
Always expire the idle timer in hard interrupt context.

- Documentation updates for atomics to clarify the difference between
cmpxchg() and try_cmpxchg() and to explain the forward progress
expectations.
- Simplification of the atomics fallback generator
- The addition of arch_atomic_long*() variants and generic arch_*()
bitops based on them.
- Add the missing might_sleep() invocations to the down*() operations of
semaphores.
The PREEMPT_RT locking core:
- Scheduler updates to support the state preserving mechanism for
'sleeping' spin- and rwlocks on RT. This mechanism is carefully
preserving the state of the task when blocking on a 'sleeping' spin- or
rwlock and takes regular wake-ups targeted at the same task into
account. The preserved or updated (via a regular wakeup) state is
restored when the lock has been acquired.
- Restructuring of the rtmutex code so it can be utilized and extended
for the RT specific lock variants.
- Restructuring of the ww_mutex code to allow sharing of the ww_mutex
specific functionality for rtmutex based ww_mutexes.
- Header file disentangling to allow substitution of the regular lock
implementations with the PREEMPT_RT variants without creating an
unmaintainable #ifdef mess.
- Shared base code for the PREEMPT_RT specific rw_semaphore and rwlock
implementations. Contrary to the regular rw_semaphores and rwlocks the
PREEMPT_RT implementation is writer unfair because it is infeasible to
do priority inheritance on multiple readers. Experience over the years
has shown that real-time workloads are not the typical workloads which
are sensitive to writer starvation. The alternative solution would be
to allow only a single reader which has been tried and discarded as it
is a major bottleneck especially for mmap_sem. Aside of that many of
the writer starvation critical usage sites have been converted to a
writer side mutex/spinlock and RCU read side protections in the past
decade so that the issue is less prominent than it used to be.
- The actual rtmutex based lock substitutions for PREEMPT_RT enabled
kernels which affect mutex, ww_mutex, rw_semaphore, spinlock_t and
rwlock_t. The spin/rw_lock*() functions disable migration across the
critical section to preserve the existing semantics vs. per CPU
variables.
- Rework of the futex REQUEUE_PI mechanism to handle the case of early
wake-ups which interleave with a re-queue operation to prevent the
situation that a task would be blocked on both the rtmutex associated
to the outer futex and the rtmutex based hash bucket spinlock.
While this situation cannot happen on !RT enabled kernels the changes
make the underlying concurrency problems easier to understand in
general. As a result the difference between !RT and RT kernels is
reduced to the handling of waiting for the critical section. !RT
kernels simply spin-wait as before and RT kernels utilize rcu_wait().
- The substitution of local_lock for PREEMPT_RT with a spinlock which
protects the critical section while staying preemptible. The CPU
locality is established by disabling migration.
The underlying concepts of this code have been in use in PREEMPT_RT for
way more than a decade. The code has been refactored several times over
the years and this final incarnation has been optimized once again to be
as non-intrusive as possible, i.e. the RT specific parts are mostly
isolated.
It has been extensively tested in the 5.14-rt patch series and it has
been verified that !RT kernels are not affected by these changes.

push_rt_task() attempts to move the currently running task away if the
next runnable task has migration disabled and therefore is pinned on the
current CPU.
The current task is retrieved via get_push_task() which only checks for
nr_cpus_allowed == 1, but does not check whether the task has migration
disabled and therefore cannot be moved either. The consequence is a
pointless invocation of the migration thread which correctly observes
that the task cannot be moved.
Return NULL if the task has migration disabled and cannot be moved to
another CPU.
