Admission control is of key importance for SCHED_DEADLINE, since
it guarantees system schedulability (or tells us something about
the degree of guarantees we can provide to the user).
This patch improves and clarifies bits and pieces regarding AC,
both for UP and SMP systems.

Several small changes regarding SCHED_DEADLINE documentation
that fix terminology and improve clarity and readability:
- "current runtime" becomes "remaining runtime"
- readablity of an equation is improved by introducing more spacing
- clarify when admission control will certainly fail
- new URL for CBS technical report
- substitue "smallest" with "earliest"

When running workloads on 2+ socket systems, based on perf profiles, the
update_cfs_rq_blocked_load() function often shows up as taking up a
noticeable % of run time.
Much of the contention is in __update_cfs_rq_tg_load_contrib() when we
update the tg load contribution stats. However, it turns out that in many
cases, they don't need to be updated and "tg_contrib" is 0.
This patch adds a check in __update_cfs_rq_tg_load_contrib() to skip updating
tg load contribution stats when nothing needs to be updated. This reduces the
cacheline contention that would be unnecessary.

Current code can fail to migrate a waking task (silently) when TTWU_QUEUE is
enabled.
When a task is waking, it is pending on the wake_list of the rq, but it is not
queued (task->on_rq == 0). In this case, set_cpus_allowed_ptr() and
__migrate_task() will not migrate it because its invisible to them.
This behavior is incorrect, because the task has been already woken, it will be
running on the wrong CPU without correct placement until the next wake-up or
update for cpus_allowed.
To fix this problem, we need to finish the wakeup (so they appear on
the runqueue) before we migrate them.

The functions task_cputime_adjusted and thread_group_cputime_adjusted()
can be called locklessly, as well as concurrently on many different CPUs.
This can occasionally lead to the utime and stime reported by times(), and
other syscalls like it, going backward. The cause for this appears to be
multiple threads racing in cputime_adjust(), both with values for utime or
stime that is larger than the original, but each with a different value.
Sometimes the larger value gets saved first, only to be immediately
overwritten with a smaller value by another thread.
Using atomic exchange prevents that problem, and ensures time
progresses monotonically.

Both times() and clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID) have scalability
issues on large systems, due to both functions being serialized with a
lock.
The lock protects against reporting a wrong value, due to a thread in the
task group exiting, its statistics reporting up to the signal struct, and
that exited task's statistics being counted twice (or not at all).
Protecting that with a lock results in times() and clock_gettime() being
completely serialized on large systems.
This can be fixed by using a seqlock around the events that gather and
propagate statistics. As an additional benefit, the protection code can
be moved into thread_group_cputime(), slightly simplifying the calling
functions.
In the case of posix_cpu_clock_get_task() things can be simplified a
lot, because the calling function already ensures that the task sticks
around, and the rest is now taken care of in thread_group_cputime().
This way the statistics reporting code can run lockless.

Oleg pointed out that wait_task_zombie adds a task's usage statistics
to the parent's signal struct, but the task's own signal struct should
also propagate the statistics at exit time.
This allows thread_group_cputime(reaped_zombie) to get the statistics
after __unhash_process() has made the task invisible to for_each_thread,
but before the thread has actually been rcu freed, making sure no
non-monotonic results are returned inside that window.

An overrun could happen in function start_hrtick_dl()
when a task with SCHED_DEADLINE runs in the microseconds
range.
For example, if a task with SCHED_DEADLINE has the following parameters:
Task runtime deadline period
P1 200us 500us 500us
The deadline and period from task P1 are less than 1ms.
In order to achieve microsecond precision, we need to enable HRTICK feature
by the next command:
PC#echo "HRTICK" > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
PC#trace-cmd record -e sched_switch &
PC#./schedtool -E -t 200000:500000:500000 -e ./test
The binary test is in an endless while(1) loop here.
Some pieces of trace.dat are as follows:
<idle>-0 157.603157: sched_switch: :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test
test-2481 157.603203: sched_switch: 2481:R ==> 0:120: swapper/2
<idle>-0 157.605657: sched_switch: :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test
test-2481 157.608183: sched_switch: 2481:R ==> 2483:120: trace-cmd
trace-cmd-2483 157.609656: sched_switch:2483:R==>2481:4294967295: test
We can get the runtime of P1 from the information above:
runtime = 157.608183 - 157.605657
runtime = 0.002526(2.526ms)
The correct runtime should be less than or equal to 200us at some point.
The problem is caused by a conditional judgment "delta > 10000"
in function start_hrtick_dl().
Because no hrtimer start up to control the rest of runtime
when the reset of runtime is less than 10us.
So the process will continue to run until tick-period is coming.
Move the code with the limit of the least time slice
from hrtick_start_fair() to hrtick_start() because the
EDF schedule class also needs this function in start_hrtick_dl().
To fix this problem, we call hrtimer_start() unconditionally in
start_hrtick_dl(), and make sure the scheduling slice won't be smaller
than 10us in hrtimer_start().

Merge tag 'xfs-for-linus-3.17-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs
Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner:
"The fixes all address recently discovered data corruption issues.
The original Direct IO issue was discovered by Chris Mason @ Facebook
on a production workload which mixed buffered reads with direct reads
and writes IO to the same file. The fix for that exposed other issues
with page invalidation (exposed by millions of fsx operations) failing
due to dirty buffers beyond EOF.
Finally, the collapse_range code could also cause problems due to
racing writeback changing the extent map while it was being shifted
around. The commits for that problem are simple mitigation fixes that
prevent the problem from occuring. A more robust fix for 3.18 that
addresses the underlying problem is currently being worked on by
Brian.
Summary of fixes:
- a direct IO read/buffered read data corruption
- the associated fallout from the DIO data corruption fix
- collapse range bugs that are potential data corruption issues"

The update_walltime() code works on the shadow timekeeper to make the
seqcount protected region as short as possible. But that update to the
shadow timekeeper does not update all timekeeper fields because it's
sufficient to do that once before it becomes life. One of these fields
is tkr.base_mono. That stays stale in the shadow timekeeper unless an
operation happens which copies the real timekeeper to the shadow.
The update function is called after the update calls to vsyscall and
pvclock. While not correct, it did not cause any problems because none
of the invoked update functions used base_mono.
commit cbcf2dd3b3 (x86: kvm: Make kvm_get_time_and_clockread()
nanoseconds based) changed that in the kvm pvclock update function, so
the stale mono_base value got used and caused kvm-clock to malfunction.
Put the update where it belongs and fix the issue.

Dave Hansen reports a massive scalability regression in an uncontained
page fault benchmark with more than 30 concurrent threads, which he
bisected down to 05b8430123 ("mm: memcontrol: use root_mem_cgroup
res_counter") and pin-pointed on res_counter spinlock contention.
That change relied on the per-cpu charge caches to mostly swallow the
res_counter costs, but it's apparent that the caches don't scale yet.
Revert memcg back to bypassing res_counters on the root level in order
to restore performance for uncontained workloads.

This patch changes sync_filesystem() to be EXPORT_SYMBOL().
The reason this is needed is that starting with 3.15 kernel, due to
Theodore Ts'o's commit 02b9984d64 ("fs: push sync_filesystem() down to
the file system's remount_fs()"), all file systems that have dirty data
to be written out need to call sync_filesystem() from their
->remount_fs() method when remounting read-only.
As this is now a generically required function rather than an internal
only function it should be EXPORT_SYMBOL() so that all file systems can
call it.

it is better to use it instead of rcu_assign_pointer() because it has a
