Implement a new scheduler class sched_ext (SCX), which allows scheduling
policies to be implemented as BPF programs to achieve the following:
1. Ease of experimentation and exploration: Enabling rapid iteration of new
scheduling policies.
2. Customization: Building application-specific schedulers which implement
policies that are not applicable to general-purpose schedulers.
3. Rapid scheduler deployments: Non-disruptive swap outs of scheduling
policies in production environments.
sched_ext leverages BPF’s struct_ops feature to define a structure which
exports function callbacks and flags to BPF programs that wish to implement
scheduling policies. The struct_ops structure exported by sched_ext is
struct sched_ext_ops, and is conceptually similar to struct sched_class. The
role of sched_ext is to map the complex sched_class callbacks to the more
simple and ergonomic struct sched_ext_ops callbacks.
For more detailed discussion on the motivations and overview, please refer
to the cover letter.
Later patches will also add several example schedulers and documentation.
This patch implements the minimum core framework to enable implementation of
BPF schedulers. Subsequent patches will gradually add functionalities
including safety guarantee mechanisms, nohz and cgroup support.
include/linux/sched/ext.h defines struct sched_ext_ops. With the comment on
top, each operation should be self-explanatory. The followings are worth
noting:
* Both "sched_ext" and its shorthand "scx" are used. If the identifier
already has "sched" in it, "ext" is used; otherwise, "scx".
* In sched_ext_ops, only .name is mandatory. Every operation is optional and
if omitted a simple but functional default behavior is provided.
* A new policy constant SCHED_EXT is added and a task can select sched_ext
by invoking sched_setscheduler(2) with the new policy constant. However,
if the BPF scheduler is not loaded, SCHED_EXT is the same as SCHED_NORMAL
and the task is scheduled by CFS. When the BPF scheduler is loaded, all
tasks which have the SCHED_EXT policy are switched to sched_ext.
* To bridge the workflow imbalance between the scheduler core and
sched_ext_ops callbacks, sched_ext uses simple FIFOs called dispatch
queues (dsq's). By default, there is one global dsq (SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL), and
one local per-CPU dsq (SCX_DSQ_LOCAL). SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL is provided for
convenience and need not be used by a scheduler that doesn't require it.
SCX_DSQ_LOCAL is the per-CPU FIFO that sched_ext pulls from when putting
the next task on the CPU. The BPF scheduler can manage an arbitrary number
of dsq's using scx_bpf_create_dsq() and scx_bpf_destroy_dsq().
* sched_ext guarantees system integrity no matter what the BPF scheduler
does. To enable this, each task's ownership is tracked through
p->scx.ops_state and all tasks are put on scx_tasks list. The disable path
can always recover and revert all tasks back to CFS. See p->scx.ops_state
and scx_tasks.
* A task is not tied to its rq while enqueued. This decouples CPU selection
from queueing and allows sharing a scheduling queue across an arbitrary
subset of CPUs. This adds some complexities as a task may need to be
bounced between rq's right before it starts executing. See
dispatch_to_local_dsq() and move_task_to_local_dsq().
* One complication that arises from the above weak association between task
and rq is that synchronizing with dequeue() gets complicated as dequeue()
may happen anytime while the task is enqueued and the dispatch path might
need to release the rq lock to transfer the task. Solving this requires a
bit of complexity. See the logic around p->scx.sticky_cpu and
p->scx.ops_qseq.
* Both enable and disable paths are a bit complicated. The enable path
switches all tasks without blocking to avoid issues which can arise from
partially switched states (e.g. the switching task itself being starved).
The disable path can't trust the BPF scheduler at all, so it also has to
guarantee forward progress without blocking. See scx_ops_enable() and
scx_ops_disable_workfn().
* When sched_ext is disabled, static_branches are used to shut down the
entry points from hot paths.
v5: * To accommodate 32bit configs, p->scx.ops_state is now atomic_long_t
instead of atomic64_t and scx_dsp_buf_ent.qseq which uses
load_acquire/store_release is now unsigned long instead of u64.
* Fix the bug where bpf_scx_btf_struct_access() was allowing write
access to arbitrary fields.
* Distinguish kfuncs which can be called from any sched_ext ops and from
anywhere. e.g. scx_bpf_pick_idle_cpu() can now be called only from
sched_ext ops.
* Rename "type" to "kind" in scx_exit_info to make it easier to use on
languages in which "type" is a reserved keyword.
* Since cff9b2332a ("kernel/sched: Modify initial boot task idle
setup"), PF_IDLE is not set on idle tasks which haven't been online
yet which made scx_task_iter_next_filtered() include those idle tasks
in iterations leading to oopses. Update scx_task_iter_next_filtered()
to directly test p->sched_class against idle_sched_class instead of
using is_idle_task() which tests PF_IDLE.
* Other updates to match upstream changes such as adding const to
set_cpumask() param and renaming check_preempt_curr() to
wakeup_preempt().
v4: * SCHED_CHANGE_BLOCK replaced with the previous
sched_deq_and_put_task()/sched_enq_and_set_tsak() pair. This is
because upstream is adaopting a different generic cleanup mechanism.
Once that lands, the code will be adapted accordingly.
* task_on_scx() used to test whether a task should be switched into SCX,
which is confusing. Renamed to task_should_scx(). task_on_scx() now
tests whether a task is currently on SCX.
* scx_has_idle_cpus is barely used anymore and replaced with direct
check on the idle cpumask.
* SCX_PICK_IDLE_CORE added and scx_pick_idle_cpu() improved to prefer
fully idle cores.
* ops.enable() now sees up-to-date p->scx.weight value.
* ttwu_queue path is disabled for tasks on SCX to avoid confusing BPF
schedulers expecting ->select_cpu() call.
* Use cpu_smt_mask() instead of topology_sibling_cpumask() like the rest
of the scheduler.
v3: * ops.set_weight() added to allow BPF schedulers to track weight changes
without polling p->scx.weight.
* move_task_to_local_dsq() was losing SCX-specific enq_flags when
enqueueing the task on the target dsq because it goes through
activate_task() which loses the upper 32bit of the flags. Carry the
flags through rq->scx.extra_enq_flags.
* scx_bpf_dispatch(), scx_bpf_pick_idle_cpu(), scx_bpf_task_running()
and scx_bpf_task_cpu() now use the new KF_RCU instead of
KF_TRUSTED_ARGS to make it easier for BPF schedulers to call them.
* The kfunc helper access control mechanism implemented through
sched_ext_entity.kf_mask is improved. Now SCX_CALL_OP*() is always
used when invoking scx_ops operations.
v2: * balance_scx_on_up() is dropped. Instead, on UP, balance_scx() is
called from put_prev_taks_scx() and pick_next_task_scx() as necessary.
To determine whether balance_scx() should be called from
put_prev_task_scx(), SCX_TASK_DEQD_FOR_SLEEP flag is added. See the
comment in put_prev_task_scx() for details.
* sched_deq_and_put_task() / sched_enq_and_set_task() sequences replaced
with SCHED_CHANGE_BLOCK().
* Unused all_dsqs list removed. This was a left-over from previous
iterations.
* p->scx.kf_mask is added to track and enforce which kfunc helpers are
allowed. Also, init/exit sequences are updated to make some kfuncs
always safe to call regardless of the current BPF scheduler state.
Combined, this should make all the kfuncs safe.
* BPF now supports sleepable struct_ops operations. Hacky workaround
removed and operations and kfunc helpers are tagged appropriately.
* BPF now supports bitmask / cpumask helpers. scx_bpf_get_idle_cpumask()
and friends are added so that BPF schedulers can use the idle masks
with the generic helpers. This replaces the hacky kfunc helpers added
by a separate patch in V1.
* CONFIG_SCHED_CLASS_EXT can no longer be enabled if SCHED_CORE is
enabled. This restriction will be removed by a later patch which adds
core-sched support.
* Add MAINTAINERS entries and other misc changes.

Using CentOS 8's kABI as reference, check if we need to padding more
struct, and here is the result.
We still don't have any reservation for things like ucount, x86
register, that may come later.
Following reservations are adjusted:
sched_avg is strictly cacheline aligned, adding any padding will make
compiler pad another whole cacheline.
cfs_rq is embedded in many structs and rarely change, just reserve two
item.
hr_timer is embedded in many structs and rarely change, just reserve one
item.
dentry_operations was like: `size: 192, cachelines: 3, members: 17`, it
have 56 byte available on last cacheline, so just use all of that and
reserve 3 only.
inode_operations: try to align to 32 byte.
irq_desc: align with cacehline.
kobject: it's never changed since 3.10, and embedded in many places,
just drop the reservation.
zone: reserve a bit more since it's already on a new cacheline.

task_state_index() ignores uninteresting state flags (such as
TASK_FREEZABLE) for most states, but for TASK_IDLE and TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT
it does not.
So if a task is waiting TASK_IDLE|TASK_FREEZABLE it gets incorrectly
reported as TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE or "D". (it is planned for nfsd to
change to use this state).
Fix this by only testing the interesting bits and not the irrelevant
bits in __task_state_index()

Where CFS is currently a WFQ based scheduler with only a single knob,
the weight. The addition of a second, latency oriented parameter,
makes something like WF2Q or EEVDF based a much better fit.
Specifically, EEVDF does EDF like scheduling in the left half of the
tree -- those entities that are owed service. Except because this is a
virtual time scheduler, the deadlines are in virtual time as well,
which is what allows over-subscription.
EEVDF has two parameters:
- weight, or time-slope: which is mapped to nice just as before
- request size, or slice length: which is used to compute
the virtual deadline as: vd_i = ve_i + r_i/w_i
Basically, by setting a smaller slice, the deadline will be earlier
and the task will be more eligible and ran earlier.
Tick driven preemption is driven by request/slice completion; while
wakeup preemption is driven by the deadline.
Because the tree is now effectively an interval tree, and the
selection is no longer 'leftmost', over-scheduling is less of a
problem.

With the introduction of avg_vruntime, it is possible to approximate
lag (the entire purpose of introducing it in fact). Use this to do lag
based placement over sleep+wake.
Specifically, the FAIR_SLEEPERS thing places things too far to the

As core scheduling introduced, a new state of idle is defined as
force idle, running idle task but nr_running greater than zero.
If a cpu is in force idle state, idle_cpu() will return zero. This
result makes sense in some scenarios, e.g., load balance,
showacpu when dumping, and judge the RCU boost kthread is starving.
But this will cause error in other scenarios, e.g., tick_irq_exit():
When force idle, rq->curr == rq->idle but rq->nr_running > 0, results
that idle_cpu() returns 0. In function tick_irq_exit(), if idle_cpu()
is 0, tick_nohz_irq_exit() will not be called, and ts->idle_active will
not become 1, which became 0 in tick_nohz_irq_enter().
ts->idle_sleeptime won't update in function update_ts_time_stats(), if
ts->idle_active is 0, which should be 1. And this bug will result that
ts->idle_sleeptime is less than the actual value, and finally will
result that the idle time in /proc/stat is less than the actual value.
To solve this problem, we introduce sched_core_idle_cpu(), which
returns 1 when force idle. We audit all users of idle_cpu(), and
change idle_cpu() into sched_core_idle_cpu() in function
tick_irq_exit().
v2-->v3: Only replace idle_cpu() with sched_core_idle_cpu() in
function tick_irq_exit(). And modify the corresponding commit log.

It looks like the UP implementation is also broken for PREEMPT;
consider task_current_syscall() getting preempted between the two

cpuset_can_attach() can fail. Postpone DL BW allocation until all tasks
have been checked. DL BW is not allocated per-task but as a sum over
all DL tasks migrating.
If multiple controllers are attached to the cgroup next to the cpuset
controller a non-cpuset can_attach() can fail. In this case free DL BW
in cpuset_cancel_attach().
Finally, update cpuset DL task count (nr_deadline_tasks) only in

While moving a set of tasks between exclusive cpusets,
cpuset_can_attach() -> task_can_attach() calls dl_cpu_busy(..., p) for
DL BW overflow checking and per-task DL BW allocation on the destination
root_domain for the DL tasks in this set.
This approach has the issue of not freeing already allocated DL BW in
the following error cases:
(1) The set of tasks includes multiple DL tasks and DL BW overflow
checking fails for one of the subsequent DL tasks.
(2) Another controller next to the cpuset controller which is attached
to the same cgroup fails in its can_attach().
To address this problem rework dl_cpu_busy():
(1) Split it into dl_bw_check_overflow() & dl_bw_alloc() and add a
dedicated dl_bw_free().
(2) dl_bw_alloc() & dl_bw_free() take a `u64 dl_bw` parameter instead of
a `struct task_struct *p` used in dl_cpu_busy(). This allows to
allocate DL BW for a set of tasks too rather than only for a single
task.

space only tracing. This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user
space library, but that part is user space only and not part of this
patch set), where the variable is that the application uses to know if
something is listening to the trace. There's also an interface to tell
the kernel about these events, which will show up in the
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/ directory, where it can be
enabled. When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell
the application to start writing to the kernel.
See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/
- Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of
direct trampolines. Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but
instead of jumping to the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF)
can register their own trampoline for performance reasons.
- Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient than
kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that kprobes on
ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes will be exposed
as dynamic events.
- More updates to references to the obsolete path of
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path.
- Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer line
by line instead of all at once. There's users in production kernels that
have a large data dump that originally used printk() directly, but the
data dump was larger than what printk() allowed as a single print.
Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that.
- Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions that
was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used for
debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a crash by
a bpf program or live patching.
- Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields of
the events. It's easier to read by humans.
- Some minor fixes and clean ups.

Core
----
- Introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Increasing the
default value allows for better BIG TCP performances.
- Reduce compound page head access for zero-copy data transfers.
- RPS/RFS improvements, avoiding unneeded NET_RX_SOFTIRQ when possible.
- Threaded NAPI improvements, adding defer skb free support and unneeded
softirq avoidance.
- Address dst_entry reference count scalability issues, via false
sharing avoidance and optimize refcount tracking.
- Add lockless accesses annotation to sk_err[_soft].
- Optimize again the skb struct layout.
- Extends the skb drop reasons to make it usable by multiple
subsystems.
- Better const qualifier awareness for socket casts.
BPF
---
- Add skb and XDP typed dynptrs which allow BPF programs for more
ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data and variable-sized
accesses.
- Add a new BPF netfilter program type and minimal support to hook
BPF programs to netfilter hooks such as prerouting or forward.
- Add more precise memory usage reporting for all BPF map types.
- Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating
in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap
params.
- Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc
exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton.
- Bigger batch of BPF verifier improvements to prepare for upcoming BPF
open-coded iterators allowing for less restrictive looping capabilities.
- Rework RCU enforcement in the verifier, add kptr_rcu and enforce BPF
programs to NULL-check before passing such pointers into kfunc.
- Add support for kptrs in percpu hashmaps, percpu LRU hashmaps and in
local storage maps.
- Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr
tasks to be stored in BPF maps.
- Add support for refcounted local kptrs to the verifier for allowing
shared ownership, useful for adding a node to both the BPF list and
rbtree.
- Add BPF verifier support for ST instructions in convert_ctx_access()
which will help new -mcpu=v4 clang flag to start emitting them.
- Add ARM32 USDT support to libbpf.
- Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control
flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations.
Protocols
---------
- IPv4: Allow adding to IPv4 address a 'protocol' tag. Such value
indicates the provenance of the IP address.
- IPv6: optimize route lookup, dropping unneeded R/W lock acquisition.
- Add the handshake upcall mechanism, allowing the user-space
to implement generic TLS handshake on kernel's behalf.
- Bridge: support per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression, increasing
resilience to nodes failures.
- SCTP: add support for Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Queueing
schedulers.
- MPTCP: delay first subflow allocation up to its first usage. This
will allow for later better LSM interaction.
- xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are
not needed anymore.
- WiFi:
- reduced neighbor report (RNR) handling for AP mode
- HW timestamping support
- support for randomized auth/deauth TA for PASN privacy
- per-link debugfs for multi-link
- TC offload support for mac80211 drivers
- mac80211 mesh fast-xmit and fast-rx support
- enable Wi-Fi 7 (EHT) mesh support
Netfilter
---------
- Add nf_tables 'brouting' support, to force a packet to be routed
instead of being bridged.
- Update bridge netfilter and ovs conntrack helpers to handle
IPv6 Jumbo packets properly, i.e. fetch the packet length
from hop-by-hop extension header. This is needed for BIT TCP
support.
- The iptables 32bit compat interface isn't compiled in by default
anymore.
- Move ip(6)tables builtin icmp matches to the udptcp one.
This has the advantage that icmp/icmpv6 match doesn't load the
iptables/ip6tables modules anymore when iptables-nft is used.
- Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and
netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev
basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device.
Driver API
----------
- Remove redundant Device Control Error Reporting Enable, as PCI core
has already error reporting enabled at enumeration time.
- Move Multicast DB netlink handlers to core, allowing devices other
then bridge to use them.
- Allow the page_pool to directly recycle the pages from safely
localized NAPI.
- Implement lockless TX queue stop/wake combo macros, allowing for
further code de-duplication and sanitization.
- Add YNL support for user headers and struct attrs.
- Add partial YNL specification for devlink.
- Add partial YNL specification for ethtool.
- Add tc-mqprio and tc-taprio support for preemptible traffic classes.
- Add tx push buf len param to ethtool, specifies the maximum number
of bytes of a transmitted packet a driver can push directly to the
underlying device.
- Add basic LED support for switch/phy.
- Add NAPI documentation, stop relaying on external links.
- Convert dsa_master_ioctl() to netdev notifier. This is a preparatory
work to make the hardware timestamping layer selectable by user
space.
- Add transceiver support and improve the error messages for CAN-FD
controllers.

Introduce per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid) to fix a PostgreSQL
sysbench regression reported by Aaron Lu.
Keep track of the currently allocated mm_cid for each mm/cpu rather than
freeing them immediately on context switch. This eliminates most atomic
operations when context switching back and forth between threads
belonging to different memory spaces in multi-threaded scenarios (many
processes, each with many threads). The per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid values are
serialized by their respective runqueue locks.
Thread migration is handled by introducing invocation to
sched_mm_cid_migrate_to() (with destination runqueue lock held) in
activate_task() for migrating tasks. If the destination cpu's mm_cid is
unset, and if the source runqueue is not actively using its mm_cid, then
the source cpu's mm_cid is moved to the destination cpu on migration.
Introduce a task-work executed periodically, similarly to NUMA work,
which delays reclaim of cid values when they are unused for a period of
time.
Keep track of the allocation time for each per-cpu cid, and let the task
work clear them when they are observed to be older than
SCHED_MM_CID_PERIOD_NS and unused. This task work also clears all
mm_cids which are greater or equal to the Hamming weight of the mm
cidmask to keep concurrency ids compact.
Because we want to ensure the mm_cid converges towards the smaller
values as migrations happen, the prior optimization that was done when
context switching between threads belonging to the same mm is removed,
because it could delay the lazy release of the destination runqueue
mm_cid after it has been replaced by a migration. Removing this prior
optimization is not an issue performance-wise because the introduced
per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid tracking also covers this more specific case.

During tracefs discussions it was decided instead of requiring a mapping
within a user-process to track the lifetime of memory descriptors we
should hook the appropriate calls. Do this by adding the minimal stubs
required for task fork, exec, and exit. Currently this is just a NOP.
Future patches will implement these calls fully.

In commit 3fbd7ee285 ("tasks: Add a count of task RCU users"), a
count on the number of RCU users was added to struct task_struct. This
was done so as to enable the removal of task_rcu_dereference(), and
allow tasks to be protected by RCU even after exiting and being removed
from the runqueue. In this commit, the 'refcount_t rcu_users' field that
keeps track of this refcount was put into a union co-located with
'struct rcu_head rcu', so as to avoid taking up any extra space in
task_struct. This was possible to do safely, because the field was only
ever decremented by a static set of specific callers, and then never
incremented again.
While this restriction of there only being a small, static set of users
of this field has worked fine, it prevents us from leveraging the field
to use RCU to protect tasks in other contexts.
During tracing, for example, it would be useful to be able to collect
some tasks that performed a certain operation, put them in a map, and
then periodically summarize who they are, which cgroup they're in, how
much CPU time they've utilized, etc. While this can currently be done
with 'usage', it becomes tricky when a task is already in a map, or if a
reference should only be taken if a task is valid and will not soon be
reaped. Ideally, we could do something like pass a reference to a map
value, and then try to acquire a reference to the task in an RCU read
region by using refcount_inc_not_zero().
Similarly, in sched_ext, schedulers are using integer pids to remember
tasks, and then looking them up with find_task_by_pid_ns(). This is
slow, error prone, and adds complexity. It would be more convenient and
performant if BPF schedulers could instead store tasks directly in maps,
and then leverage RCU to ensure they can be safely accessed with low
overhead.
Finally, overloading fields like this is error prone. Someone that wants
to use 'rcu_users' could easily overlook the fact that once the rcu
callback is scheduled, the refcount will go back to being nonzero, thus
precluding the use of refcount_inc_not_zero(). Furthermore, as described
below, it's possible to extract the fields of the union without changing
the size of task_struct.
There are several possible ways to enable this:
1. The lightest touch approach is likely the one proposed in this patch,
which is to simply extract 'rcu_users' and 'rcu' from the union, so
that scheduling the 'rcu' callback doesn't overwrite the 'rcu_users'
refcount. If we have a trusted task pointer, this would allow us to
use refcnt_inc_not_zero() inside of an RCU region to determine if we
can safely acquire a reference to the task and store it in a map. As
mentioned below, this can be done without changing the size of
task_struct, by moving the location of the union to another location
that has padding gaps we can fill in.
2. Removing 'refcount_t rcu_users', and instead having the entire task
be freed in an rcu callback. This is likely the most sound overall
design, though it changes the behavioral semantics exposed to
callers, who currently expect that a task that's successfully looked
up in e.g. the pid_list with find_task_by_pid_ns(), can always have a
'usage' reference acquired on them, as it's guaranteed to be >
0 until after the next gp. In order for this approach to work, we'd
have to audit all callers. This approach also slightly changes
behavior observed by user space by not invoking
trace_sched_process_free() until the whole task_struct is actually being
freed, rather than just after it's exited. It also may change
timings, as memory will be freed in an RCU callback rather than
immediately when the final 'usage' refcount drops to 0. This also is
arguably a benefit, as it provides more predictable performance to
callers who are refcounting tasks.
3. There may be other solutions as well that don't require changing the
layout of task_struct. For example, we could possibly do something
complex from the BPF side, such as listen for task exit and remove a
task from a map when the task is exiting. This would likely require
significant custom handling for task_struct in the verifier, so a
more generalizable solution is likely warranted.
As mentioned above, this patch proposes the lightest-touch approach
which allows callers elsewhere in the kernel to use 'rcu_users' to
ensure the lifetime of a task, by extracting 'rcu_users' and 'rcu' from
the union. There is no size change in task_struct with this patch.

This feature allows the scheduler to expose a per-memory map concurrency
ID to user-space. This concurrency ID is within the possible cpus range,
and is temporarily (and uniquely) assigned while threads are actively
running within a memory map. If a memory map has fewer threads than
cores, or is limited to run on few cores concurrently through sched
affinity or cgroup cpusets, the concurrency IDs will be values close
to 0, thus allowing efficient use of user-space memory for per-cpu
data structures.
This feature is meant to be exposed by a new rseq thread area field.
The primary purpose of this feature is to do the heavy-lifting needed
by memory allocators to allow them to use per-cpu data structures
efficiently in the following situations:
- Single-threaded applications,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with limited
cpu affinity mask,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with
restricted cgroup cpuset per container.
One of the key concern from scheduler maintainers is the overhead
associated with additional spin locks or atomic operations in the
scheduler fast-path. This is why the following optimization is
implemented.
On context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map,
transfer the mm_cid from prev to next without any atomic ops. This
takes care of use-cases involving frequent context switch between
threads belonging to the same memory map.
Additional optimizations can be done if the spin locks added when
context switching between threads belonging to different memory maps end
up being a performance bottleneck. Those are left out of this patch
though. A performance impact would have to be clearly demonstrated to
justify the added complexity.
The credit goes to Paul Turner (Google) for the original virtual cpu id
idea. This feature is implemented based on the discussions with Paul
Turner and Peter Oskolkov (Google), but I took the liberty to implement
scheduler fast-path optimizations and my own NUMA-awareness scheme. The
rumor has it that Google have been running a rseq vcpu_id extension
internally in production for a year. The tcmalloc source code indeed has
comments hinting at a vcpu_id prototype extension to the rseq system
call [1].
The following benchmarks do not show any significant overhead added to
the scheduler context switch by this feature:
* perf bench sched messaging (process)
Baseline: 86.5±0.3 ms
With mm_cid: 86.7±2.6 ms
* perf bench sched messaging (threaded)
Baseline: 84.3±3.0 ms
With mm_cid: 84.7±2.6 ms
* hackbench (process)
Baseline: 82.9±2.7 ms
With mm_cid: 82.9±2.9 ms
* hackbench (threaded)
Baseline: 85.2±2.6 ms
With mm_cid: 84.4±2.9 ms

Introduce the extensible rseq ABI, where the feature size supported by
the kernel and the required alignment are communicated to user-space
through ELF auxiliary vectors.
This allows user-space to call rseq registration with a rseq_len of
either 32 bytes for the original struct rseq size (which includes
padding), or larger.
If rseq_len is larger than 32 bytes, then it must be large enough to
contain the feature size communicated to user-space through ELF
auxiliary vectors.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Implement persistent user-requested affinity: introduce
affinity_context::user_mask and unconditionally preserve the
user-requested CPU affinity masks, for long-lived tasks to better
interact with cpusets & CPU hotplug events over longer timespans,
without destroying the original affinity intent if the underlying
topology changes.
- Uclamp updates: fix relationship between uclamp and fits_capacity()
- PSI fixes
- Misc fixes & updates

Currently mm_struct maintains rss_stats which are updated on page fault
and the unmapping codepaths. For page fault codepath the updates are
cached per thread with the batch of TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH which is 64.
The reason for caching is performance for multithreaded applications
otherwise the rss_stats updates may become hotspot for such applications.
However this optimization comes with the cost of error margin in the rss
stats. The rss_stats for applications with large number of threads can be
very skewed. At worst the error margin is (nr_threads * 64) and we have a
lot of applications with 100s of threads, so the error margin can be very
high. Internally we had to reduce TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH to 32.
Recently we started seeing the unbounded errors for rss_stats for specific
applications which use TCP rx0cp. It seems like vm_insert_pages()
codepath does not sync rss_stats at all.
This patch converts the rss_stats into percpu_counter to convert the error
margin from (nr_threads * 64) to approximately (nr_cpus ^ 2). However
this conversion enable us to get the accurate stats for situations where
accuracy is more important than the cpu cost.
This patch does not make such tradeoffs - we can just use
percpu_counter_add_local() for the updates and percpu_counter_sum() (or
percpu_counter_sync() + percpu_counter_read) for the readers. At the
moment the readers are either procfs interface, oom_killer and memory
reclaim which I think are not performance critical and should be ok with
slow read. However I think we can make that change in a separate patch.

The commit d583d360a6 ("psi: Fix psi state corruption when schedule()
races with cgroup move") fixed a race problem by making cgroup_move_task()
use task->psi_flags instead of looking at the scheduler state.
We can extend task->psi_flags usage to CPU migration, which should be
a minor optimization for performance and code simplicity.

There have been various issues and limitations with the way perf uses
(task) contexts to track events. Most notable is the single hardware
PMU task context, which has resulted in a number of yucky things (both
proposed and merged).
Notably:
- HW breakpoint PMU
- ARM big.little PMU / Intel ADL PMU
- Intel Branch Monitoring PMU
- AMD IBS PMU
- S390 cpum_cf PMU
- PowerPC trace_imc PMU
*Current design:*
Currently we have a per task and per cpu perf_event_contexts:
task_struct::perf_events_ctxp[] <-> perf_event_context <-> perf_cpu_context
^ | ^ | ^
`---------------------------------' | `--> pmu ---'
v ^
perf_event ------'
Each task has an array of pointers to a perf_event_context. Each
perf_event_context has a direct relation to a PMU and a group of
events for that PMU. The task related perf_event_context's have a
pointer back to that task.
Each PMU has a per-cpu pointer to a per-cpu perf_cpu_context, which
includes a perf_event_context, which again has a direct relation to
that PMU, and a group of events for that PMU.
The perf_cpu_context also tracks which task context is currently
associated with that CPU and includes a few other things like the
hrtimer for rotation etc.
Each perf_event is then associated with its PMU and one
perf_event_context.
*Proposed design:*
New design proposed by this patch reduce to a single task context and
a single CPU context but adds some intermediate data-structures:
task_struct::perf_event_ctxp -> perf_event_context <- perf_cpu_context
^ | ^ ^
`---------------------------' | |
| | perf_cpu_pmu_context <--.
| `----. ^ |
| | | |
| v v |
| ,--> perf_event_pmu_context |
| | |
| | |
v v |
perf_event ---> pmu ----------------'
With the new design, perf_event_context will hold all events for all
pmus in the (respective pinned/flexible) rbtrees. This can be achieved
by adding pmu to rbtree key:
{cpu, pmu, cgroup, group_index}
Each perf_event_context carries a list of perf_event_pmu_context which
is used to hold per-pmu-per-context state. For example, it keeps track
of currently active events for that pmu, a pmu specific task_ctx_data,
a flag to tell whether rotation is required or not etc.
Additionally, perf_cpu_pmu_context is used to hold per-pmu-per-cpu
state like hrtimer details to drive the event rotation, a pointer to
perf_event_pmu_context of currently running task and some other
ancillary information.
Each perf_event is associated to it's pmu, perf_event_context and
perf_event_pmu_context.
Further optimizations to current implementation are possible. For
example, ctx_resched() can be optimized to reschedule only single pmu
events.
Much thanks to Ravi for picking this up and pushing it towards
completion.

Fixes:
- Allow splice to read partially read ring buffer pages
Fixes splice never moving forward.
- Fix inverted compare that made the "shortest" ring buffer
wait queue actually the longest.
- Fix a race in the ring buffer between resetting a page when
a writer goes to another page, and the reader.
- Fix ftrace accounting bug when function hooks are added at
boot up before the weak functions are set to "disabled".
- Fix bug that freed a user allocated snapshot buffer when

whether or not individual bits of memory are initialized (shadow is 0)
or not (shadow is 1).
2. The origins of that location - а 4-byte:4-byte mapping containing
4-byte IDs of the stack traces where uninitialized values were
created.
Each struct page now contains pointers to two struct pages holding KMSAN
metadata (shadow and origins) for the original struct page. Utility
routines in mm/kmsan/core.c and mm/kmsan/shadow.c handle the metadata
creation, addressing, copying and checking. mm/kmsan/report.c performs
error reporting in the cases an uninitialized value is used in a way that
leads to undefined behavior.
KMSAN compiler instrumentation is responsible for tracking the metadata
along with the kernel memory. mm/kmsan/instrumentation.c provides the
implementation for instrumentation hooks that are called from files
compiled with -fsanitize=kernel-memory.
To aid parameter passing (also done at instrumentation level), each
task_struct now contains a struct kmsan_task_state used to track the
metadata of function parameters and return values for that task.
Finally, this patch provides CONFIG_KMSAN that enables KMSAN, and declares
CFLAGS_KMSAN, which are applied to files compiled with KMSAN. The
KMSAN_SANITIZE:=n Makefile directive can be used to completely disable
KMSAN instrumentation for certain files.
Similarly, KMSAN_ENABLE_CHECKS:=n disables KMSAN checks and makes newly
created stack memory initialized.
Users can also use functions from include/linux/kmsan-checks.h to mark
certain memory regions as uninitialized or initialized (this is called
"poisoning" and "unpoisoning") or check that a particular region is
initialized.

Evictable pages are divided into multiple generations for each lruvec.
The youngest generation number is stored in lrugen->max_seq for both
anon and file types as they are aged on an equal footing. The oldest
generation numbers are stored in lrugen->min_seq[] separately for anon
and file types as clean file pages can be evicted regardless of swap
constraints. These three variables are monotonically increasing.
Generation numbers are truncated into order_base_2(MAX_NR_GENS+1) bits
in order to fit into the gen counter in folio->flags. Each truncated
generation number is an index to lrugen->lists[]. The sliding window
technique is used to track at least MIN_NR_GENS and at most
MAX_NR_GENS generations. The gen counter stores a value within [1,
MAX_NR_GENS] while a page is on one of lrugen->lists[]. Otherwise it
stores 0.
There are two conceptually independent procedures: "the aging", which
produces young generations, and "the eviction", which consumes old
generations. They form a closed-loop system, i.e., "the page reclaim".
Both procedures can be invoked from userspace for the purposes of working
set estimation and proactive reclaim. These techniques are commonly used
to optimize job scheduling (bin packing) in data centers [1][2].
To avoid confusion, the terms "hot" and "cold" will be applied to the
multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "active" and "inactive" will
be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual.
The protection of hot pages and the selection of cold pages are based
on page access channels and patterns. There are two access channels:
one through page tables and the other through file descriptors. The
protection of the former channel is by design stronger because:
1. The uncertainty in determining the access patterns of the former
channel is higher due to the approximation of the accessed bit.
2. The cost of evicting the former channel is higher due to the TLB
flushes required and the likelihood of encountering the dirty bit.
3. The penalty of underprotecting the former channel is higher because
applications usually do not prepare themselves for major page
faults like they do for blocked I/O. E.g., GUI applications
commonly use dedicated I/O threads to avoid blocking rendering
threads.
There are also two access patterns: one with temporal locality and the
other without. For the reasons listed above, the former channel is
assumed to follow the former pattern unless VM_SEQ_READ or VM_RAND_READ is
present; the latter channel is assumed to follow the latter pattern unless
outlying refaults have been observed [3][4].
The next patch will address the "outlying refaults". Three macros, i.e.,
LRU_REFS_WIDTH, LRU_REFS_PGOFF and LRU_REFS_MASK, used later are added in
this patch to make the entire patchset less diffy.
A page is added to the youngest generation on faulting. The aging needs
to check the accessed bit at least twice before handing this page over to
the eviction. The first check takes care of the accessed bit set on the
initial fault; the second check makes sure this page has not been used
since then. This protocol, AKA second chance, requires a minimum of two
generations, hence MIN_NR_GENS.

Once upon a time, we only support accounting thrashing of page cache.
Then Joonsoo introduced workingset detection for anonymous pages and we
gained the ability to account thrashing of them[1].
For page cache thrashing accounting, there is no suitable place to do it
in fs level likes swap_readpage(). So we have to do it in
folio_wait_bit_common().
Then for anonymous pages thrashing accounting, we have to do it in both
swap_readpage() and folio_wait_bit_common(). This likes PSI, so we should
let thrashing accounting supports re-entrance detection.
This patch is to prepare complete thrashing accounting, and is based on
patch "filemap: make the accounting of thrashing more consistent".

Guard wakeups that the user can trigger, and that may end up triggering a
call back into eventfd_signal. This is in addition to the current approach
that only guards in eventfd_signal.
Rename in_eventfd_signal -> in_eventfd at the same time to reflect this.
Without this there would be a deadlock in the following code using libaio:
int main()
{
struct io_context *ctx = NULL;
struct iocb iocb;
struct iocb *iocbs[] = { &iocb };
int evfd;
uint64_t val = 1;
evfd = eventfd(0, EFD_CLOEXEC);
assert(!io_setup(2, &ctx));
io_prep_poll(&iocb, evfd, POLLIN);
io_set_eventfd(&iocb, evfd);
assert(1 == io_submit(ctx, 1, iocbs));

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

- Runtime verification infrastructure
This is the biggest change for this pull request. It introduces the
runtime verification that is necessary for running Linux on safety
critical systems. It allows for deterministic automata models to be
inserted into the kernel that will attach to tracepoints, where the
information on these tracepoints will move the model from state to state.
If a state is encountered that does not belong to the model, it will then
activate a given reactor, that could just inform the user or even panic
the kernel (for which safety critical systems will detect and can recover
from).
- Two monitor models are also added: Wakeup In Preemptive (WIP - not to be
confused with "work in progress"), and Wakeup While Not Running (WWNR).
- Added __vstring() helper to the TRACE_EVENT() macro to replace several
vsnprintf() usages that were all doing it wrong.
- eprobes now can have their event autogenerated when the event name is left
off.
