It is better not to think about compute capacity as being equivalent

Since struct sched_group_power is really about compute capacity of sched
groups, let's rename it to struct sched_group_capacity. Similarly sgp
becomes sgc. Related variables and functions dealing with groups are also

The capacity of a CPU/group should be some intrinsic value that doesn't
change with task placement. It is like a container which capacity is
stable regardless of the amount of liquid in it (its "utilization")...
unless the container itself is crushed that is, but that's another story.
Therefore let's rename "has_capacity" to "has_free_capacity" in order to
better convey the wanted meaning.

The current no_hz idle load balancer do load balancing for *all* idle cpus,
even though the time due to load balance for a particular
idle cpu could be still a while in the future. This introduces a much
higher load balancing rate than what is necessary. The patch
changes the behavior by only doing idle load balancing on
behalf of an idle cpu only when it is due for load balancing.
On SGI's systems with over 3000 cores, the cpu responsible for idle balancing
got overwhelmed with idle balancing, and introduces a lot of OS noise
to workloads. This patch fixes the issue.

sched_cfs_period_timer() reads cfs_b->period without locks before calling
do_sched_cfs_period_timer(), and similarly unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs()
would read cfs_b->period without the right lock. Thus a simultaneous
change of bandwidth could cause corruption on any platform where ktime_t
or u64 writes/reads are not atomic.
Extend cfs_b->lock from do_sched_cfs_period_timer() to include the read of
cfs_b->period to solve that issue; unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs() can just
use 1 rather than the exact quota, much like distribute_cfs_runtime()
does.
There is also an unlocked read of cfs_b->runtime_expires, but a race
there would only delay runtime expiry by a tick. Still, the comparison
should just be != anyway, which clarifies even that problem.

Affine wakeups have the potential to interfere with NUMA placement.
If a task wakes up too many other tasks, affine wakeups will get
disabled.
However, regardless of how many other tasks it wakes up, it gets
re-enabled once a second, potentially interfering with NUMA
placement of other tasks.
By decaying wakee_wakes in half instead of zeroing it, we can avoid

Update the migrate_improves/degrades_locality() functions with
knowledge of pseudo-interleaving.
Do not consider moving tasks around within the set of group's active
nodes as improving or degrading locality. Instead, leave the load
balancer free to balance the load between a numa_group's active nodes.
Also, switch from the group/task_weight functions to the group/task_fault
functions. The "weight" functions involve a division, but both calls use
the same divisor, so there's no point in doing that from these functions.
On a 4 node (x10 core) system, performance of SPECjbb2005 seems
unaffected, though the number of migrations with 2 8-warehouse wide
instances seems to have almost halved, due to the scheduler running
each instance on a single node.

If the sched_clock time starts at a large value, the kernel will spin
in sched_avg_update for a long time while rq->age_stamp catches up
with rq->clock.
The comment in kernel/sched/clock.c says that there is no strict promise
that it starts at zero. So initialize rq->age_stamp when a cpu starts up
to avoid this.
I was seeing long delays on a simulator that didn't start the clock at
zero. This might also be an issue on reboots on processors that don't
re-initialize the timer to zero on reset, and when using kexec.

Currently, in idle_balance(), we update rq->next_balance when we pull_tasks.
However, it is also important to update this in the !pulled_tasks case too.
When the CPU is "busy" (the CPU isn't idle), rq->next_balance gets computed
using sd->busy_factor (so we increase the balance interval when the CPU is
busy). However, when the CPU goes idle, rq->next_balance could still be set
to a large value that was computed with the sd->busy_factor.
Thus, we need to also update rq->next_balance in idle_balance() in the cases
where !pulled_tasks too, so that rq->next_balance gets updated without taking
the busy_factor into account when the CPU is about to go idle.
This patch makes rq->next_balance get updated independently of whether or
not we pulled_task. Also, we add logic to ensure that we always traverse
at least 1 of the sched domains to get a proper next_balance value for
updating rq->next_balance.
Additionally, since load_balance() modifies the sd->balance_interval, we
need to re-obtain the sched domain's interval after the call to
load_balance() in rebalance_domains() before we update rq->next_balance.
This patch adds and uses 2 new helper functions, update_next_balance() and
get_sd_balance_interval() to update next_balance and obtain the sched
domain's balance_interval.

In sched_init_numa, we create a new topology table in which both default

pointer in the mask field.
The current implementation doesn't add this last row in the computation of the
table size. So we add 1 row in the allocation size that will be used as the
last row of the table. The kzalloc will ensure that the mask field is NULL.

On smaller systems, the top level sched domain will be an affine
domain, and select_idle_sibling is invoked for every SD_WAKE_AFFINE

On larger systems, with the node distance between far away NUMA nodes
being > RECLAIM_DISTANCE, select_idle_sibling is only called if the
waker and the wakee are on nodes less than RECLAIM_DISTANCE apart.
This patch leaves in place the policy of not pulling the task across
nodes on such systems, while fixing the issue that select_idle_sibling
is not called at all in certain circumstances.
The code will look for an idle CPU in the same CPU package as the

Michael Kerrisk noticed that creating SCHED_DEADLINE reservations
with certain parameters (e.g, a runtime of something near 2^64 ns)
can cause a system freeze for some amount of time.
The problem is that in the interface we have
u64 sched_runtime;
while internally we need to have a signed runtime (to cope with
budget overruns)
s64 runtime;
At the time we setup a new dl_entity we copy the first value in
the second. The cast turns out with negative values when
sched_runtime is too big, and this causes the scheduler to go crazy
right from the start.
Moreover, considering how we deal with deadlines wraparound
(s64)(a - b) < 0
we also have to restrict acceptable values for sched_{deadline,period}.
This patch fixes the thing checking that user parameters are always
below 2^63 ns (still large enough for everyone).
It also rewrites other conditions that we check, since in
__checkparam_dl we don't have to deal with deadline wraparounds
and what we have now erroneously fails when the difference between
values is too big.

The documented[1] behavior of sched_attr() in the proposed man page text is:
sched_attr::size must be set to the size of the structure, as in
sizeof(struct sched_attr), if the provided structure is smaller
than the kernel structure, any additional fields are assumed
'0'. If the provided structure is larger than the kernel structure,
the kernel verifies all additional fields are '0' if not the
syscall will fail with -E2BIG.
As currently implemented, sched_copy_attr() returns -EFBIG for
for this case, but the logic in sys_sched_setattr() converts that
error to -EFAULT. This patch fixes the behavior.

Pull two powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here are a couple of fixes for 3.15. One from Anton fixes a nasty
regression I introduced when trying to fix a loss of irq_work whose
consequences is that we can completely lose timer interrupts on a
CPU... not pretty.
The other one is a change to our PCIe reset hook to use a firmware
call instead of direct config space accesses to trigger a fundamental
reset on the root port. This is necessary so that the FW gets a
chance to disable the link down error monitoring, which would
otherwise trip and cause subsequent fatal EEH error"
* 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc:
powerpc: irq work racing with timer interrupt can result in timer interrupt hang
powerpc/powernv: Reset root port in firmware
Pull two btrfs fixes from Chris Mason:
"This has two fixes that we've been testing for 3.16, but since both
are safe and fix real bugs, it makes sense to send for 3.15 instead"

Btrfs: send, fix incorrect ref access when using extrefs
Btrfs: fix EIO on reading file after ioctl clone works on it
Pull two ceph fixes from Sage Weil:
"The first patch fixes a problem when we have a page count of 0 for
sendpage which is triggered by zfs. The second fixes a bug in CRUSH
that was resolved in the userland code a while back but fell through
the cracks on the kernel side"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client:
crush: decode and initialize chooseleaf_vary_r
libceph: fix corruption when using page_count 0 page in rbd
Code inspection of the XFS error number sign translations found a bunch of
issues, including returning incorrectly signed errors for some data integrity
operations. These leak to userspace and result in applications not getting the
errors correctly reported. Hence they need fixing sooner rather than later.
