cbbce82209 SCHED: add some "wait..on_bit...timeout()" interfaces.
In commit c1221321b7
   sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout

I suggested that a "wait_on_bit_timeout()" interface would not meet my
need.  This isn't true - I was just over-engineering.

Including a 'private' field in wait_bit_key instead of a focused
"timeout" field was just premature generalization.  If some other
use is ever found, it can be generalized or added later.

So this patch renames "private" to "timeout" with a meaning "stop
waiting when "jiffies" reaches or passes "timeout",
and adds two of the many possible wait..bit..timeout() interfaces:

wait_on_page_bit_killable_timeout(), which is the one I want to use,
and out_of_line_wait_on_bit_timeout() which is a reasonably general
example.  Others can be added as needed.

2ee507c472 sched: Add function single_task_running to let a task check if it is the only task running on a cpu
This function will help an async task processing batched jobs from
workqueue decide if it wants to keep processing on more chunks of batched
work that can be delayed, or to accumulate more work for more efficient
batched processing later.

If no other tasks are running on the cpu, the batching process can take
advantgae of the available cpu cycles to a make decision to continue
processing the existing accumulated work to minimize delay,
otherwise it will yield.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Again, ACPICA leads the pack (47 commits), followed by cpufreq (18
  commits) and system suspend/hibernation (9 commits).

  From the new code perspective, the ACPICA update brings ACPI 5.1 to
  the table, including a new device configuration object called _DSD
  (Device Specific Data) that will hopefully help us to operate device
  properties like Device Trees do (at least to some extent) and changes
  related to supporting ACPI on ARM.

  Apart from that we have hibernation changes making it use radix trees
  to store memory bitmaps which should speed up some operations carried
  out by it quite significantly.  We also have some power management
  changes related to suspend-to-idle (the "freeze" sleep state) support
  and more preliminary changes needed to support ACPI on ARM (outside of
  ACPICA).

  The rest is fixes and cleanups pretty much everywhere.

  Specifics:

   - ACPICA update to upstream version 20140724.  That includes ACPI 5.1
     material (support for the _CCA and _DSD predefined names, changes
     related to the DMAR and PCCT tables and ARM support among other

Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Mostly changes to get the v2 interface ready.  The core features are
  mostly ready now and I think it's reasonable to expect to drop the
  devel mask in one or two devel cycles at least for a subset of
  controllers.

   - cgroup added a controller dependency mechanism so that block cgroup
     can depend on memory cgroup.  This will be used to finally support
     IO provisioning on the writeback traffic, which is currently being
     implemented.

   - The v2 interface now uses a separate table so that the interface
     files for the new interface are explicitly declared in one place.
     Each controller will explicitly review and add the files for the
     new interface.

   - cpuset is getting ready for the hierarchical behavior which is in
     the similar style with other controllers so that an ancestor's
     configuration change doesn't change the descendants' configurations
     irreversibly and processes aren't silently migrated when a CPU or
     node goes down.

  All the changes are to the new interface and no behavior changed for
  the multiple hierarchies"

d8d28c8f00 sched: Fix sched_setparam() policy == -1 logic
The scheduler uses policy == -1 to preserve the current policy state to
implement sched_setparam(). But, as (int) -1 is equals to 0xffffffff,
it's matching the if (policy & SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK) on
_sched_setscheduler(). This match changes the policy value to an
invalid value, breaking the sched_setparam() syscall.

This patch checks policy == -1 before check the SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag.

The following program shows the bug:

int main(void)
{
	struct sched_param param = {
		.sched_priority = 5,
	};

	sched_setscheduler(0, SCHED_FIFO, &param);
	param.sched_priority = 1;
	sched_setparam(0, &param);
	param.sched_priority = 0;
	sched_getparam(0, &param);
	if (param.sched_priority != 1)
		printf("failed priority setting (found %d instead of 1)\n",
			param.sched_priority);
	else
		printf("priority setting fine\n");
}

c1221321b7 sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout
It is currently not possible for various wait_on_bit functions
to implement a timeout.

While the "action" function that is called to do the waiting
could certainly use schedule_timeout(), there is no way to carry
forward the remaining timeout after a false wake-up.
As false-wakeups a clearly possible at least due to possible
hash collisions in bit_waitqueue(), this is a real problem.

The 'action' function is currently passed a pointer to the word
containing the bit being waited on.  No current action functions
use this pointer.  So changing it to something else will be a
little noisy but will have no immediate effect.

This patch changes the 'action' function to take a pointer to
the "struct wait_bit_key", which contains a pointer to the word
containing the bit so nothing is really lost.

It also adds a 'private' field to "struct wait_bit_key", which
is initialized to zero.

An action function can now implement a timeout with something
like

static int timed_out_waiter(struct wait_bit_key *key)
{
	unsigned long waited;
	if (key->private == 0) {
		key->private = jiffies;
		if (key->private == 0)
			key->private -= 1;
	}
	waited = jiffies - key->private;
	if (waited > 10 * HZ)
		return -EAGAIN;
	schedule_timeout(waited - 10 * HZ);
	return 0;
}

If any other need for context in a waiter were found it would be
easy to use ->private for some other purpose, or even extend
"struct wait_bit_key".

My particular need is to support timeouts in nfs_release_page()
to avoid deadlocks with loopback mounted NFS.

While wait_on_bit_timeout() would be a cleaner interface, it
will not meet my need.  I need the timeout to be sensitive to
the state of the connection with the server, which could change.
 So I need to use an 'action' interface.

743162013d sched: Remove proliferation of wait_on_bit() action functions
The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().

So:
 Rename wait_on_bit and        wait_on_bit_lock to
        wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
 to make it explicit that they need an action function.

 Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
 which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
 a standard one.
 The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
 based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
 function.

 All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
 can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
 action functions have been discarded.
 wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
 event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
 interpolate their own error code as appropriate.

The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"

The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.

A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack.  So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).

Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS.  CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.

5cd08fbfdb sched: Fix static_key race with sched_feat()
As pointed out by Andi Kleen, the usage of static keys can be racy in
sched_feat_disable() vs. sched_feat_enable(). Currently, we first check the
value of keys->enabled, and subsequently update the branch direction. This,
can be racy and can potentially leave the keys in an inconsistent state.

Take the i_mutex around these calls to resolve the race.

8875125efe sched: Transform resched_task() into resched_curr()
We always use resched_task() with rq->curr argument.
It's not possible to reschedule any task but rq's current.

The patch introduces resched_curr(struct rq *) to
replace all of the repeating patterns. The main aim
is cleanup, but there is a little size profit too:

  (before)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155274	  16445	   7042	 178761	  2ba49	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	$ size vmlinux

	7411490	1178376	 991232	9581098	 92322a	vmlinux

  (after)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155130	  16445	   7042	 178617	  2b9b9	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	$ size vmlinux
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	7411362	1178376	 991232	9580970	 9231aa	vmlinux

	I was choosing between resched_curr() and resched_rq(),
	and the first name looks better for me.

A little lie in Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt. I have not
actually collected the tracing again. With a hope the patch
won't make execution times much worse :)

proc_sched_show_task() does:

	do_div(avg_atom, nr_switches);

nr_switches is unsigned long and do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which
means it can test non-zero on e.g. x86-64 and be truncated to zero for
division.

Fix the problem by using div64_ul() instead.

As a side effect calculations of avg_atom for big nr_switches are now correct.

5577964e64 cgroup: rename cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes to ->legacy_cftypes
Currently, cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes is used for both the unified
default hierarchy and legacy ones and subsystems can mark each file
with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE if it has to appear
only on one of them.  This is quite hairy and error-prone.  Also, we
may end up exposing interface files to the default hierarchy without
thinking it through.

cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype arrays and apply each only
on the hierarchies of the matching type.  This will allow organizing
cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems to scrutinize
the interface which is being exposed in the new default hierarchy.

In preparation, this patch renames cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes to
cgroup_subsys->legacy_cftypes.  This patch is pure rename.

0e59bdaea7 sched/fair: Disable runtime_enabled on dying rq
We kill rq->rd on the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage:

	cpuset_cpu_inactive -> cpuset_update_active_cpus -> partition_sched_domains ->
	-> cpu_attach_domain -> rq_attach_root -> set_rq_offline

This unthrottles all throttled cfs_rqs.

But the cpu is still able to call schedule() till

	take_cpu_down->__cpu_disable()

is called from stop_machine.

This case the tasks from just unthrottled cfs_rqs are pickable
in a standard scheduler way, and they are picked by dying cpu.
The cfs_rqs becomes throttled again, and migrate_tasks()
in migration_call skips their tasks (one more unthrottle
in migrate_tasks()->CPU_DYING does not happen, because rq->rd
is already NULL).

Patch sets runtime_enabled to zero. This guarantees, the runtime
is not accounted, and the cfs_rqs won't exceed given
cfs_rq->runtime_remaining = 1, and tasks will be pickable
in migrate_tasks(). runtime_enabled is recalculated again
when rq becomes online again.

Ben Segall also noticed, we always enable runtime in
tg_set_cfs_bandwidth(). Actually, we should do that for online
cpus only. To prevent races with unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs()
we take get_online_cpus() lock.

a22b4b0123 sched/numa: Change scan period code to match intent
Reading through the scan period code and comment, it appears the
intent was to slow down NUMA scanning when a majority of accesses
are on the local node, specifically a local:remote ratio of 3:1.

However, the code actually tests local / (local + remote), and
the actual cut-off point was around 30% local accesses, well before
a task has actually converged on a node.

Changing the threshold to 7 means scanning slows down when a task
has around 70% of its accesses local, which appears to match the
intent of the code more closely.

0132c3e177 sched/numa: Examine a task move when examining a task swap
Running "perf bench numa mem -0 -m -P 1000 -p 8 -t 20" on a 4
node system results in 160 runnable threads on a system with 80
CPU threads.

Once a process has nearly converged, with 39 threads on one node
and 1 thread on another node, the remaining thread will be unable
to migrate to its preferred node through a task swap.

However, a simple task move would make the workload converge,
witout causing an imbalance.

Test for this unlikely occurrence, and attempt a task move to
the preferred nid when it happens.

 # Running main, "perf bench numa mem -p 8 -t 20 -0 -m -P 1000"

Without this patch, this same perf bench numa mem run had to
rely on the scheduler load balancer to first balance out the
load (moving a random task), before a task swap could complete
the NUMA convergence.

The load balancer does not normally take action unless the load

difference exceeds 25%. Convergence times of over half an hour
have been observed without this patch.

With this patch, the NUMA balancing code will simply migrate the
task, if that does not cause an imbalance.

Also skip examining a CPU in detail if the improvement on that CPU
is no more than the best we already have.

6dc1a672ab sched/numa: Use effective_load() to balance NUMA loads
When CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is enabled, the load that a task places
on a CPU is determined by the group the task is in. The active groups
on the source and destination CPU can be different, resulting in a
different load contribution by the same task at its source and at its
destination. As a result, the load needs to be calculated separately
for each CPU, instead of estimated once with task_h_load().

Getting this calculation right allows some workloads to converge,
where previously the last thread could get stuck on another node,
without being able to migrate to its final destination.

28a2174519 sched/numa: Move power adjustment into load_too_imbalanced()
Currently the NUMA code scales the load on each node with the
amount of CPU power available on that node, but it does not
apply any adjustment to the load of the task that is being
moved over.

On systems with SMT/HT, this results in a task being weighed
much more heavily than a CPU core, and a task move that would
even out the load between nodes being disallowed.

The correct thing is to apply the power correction to the
numbers after we have first applied the move of the tasks'
loads to them.

This also allows us to do the power correction with a multiplication,
rather than a division.

Also drop two function arguments for load_too_unbalanced, since it
takes various factors from env already.

f0b8a4afd6 sched/numa: Use group's max nid as task's preferred nid
From task_numa_placement, always try to consolidate the tasks
in a group on the group's top nid.

In case this task is part of a group that is interleaved over
multiple nodes, task_numa_migrate will set the task's preferred
nid to the best node it could find for the task, so this patch
will cause at most one run through task_numa_migrate.

4486edd12b sched/fair: Implement fast idling of CPUs when the system is partially loaded
When a system is lightly loaded (i.e. no more than 1 job per cpu),
attempt to pull job to a cpu before putting it to idle is unnecessary and
can be skipped.  This patch adds an indicator so the scheduler can know
when there's no more than 1 active job is on any CPU in the system to
skip needless job pulls.

On a 4 socket machine with a request/response kind of workload from
clients, we saw about 0.13 msec delay when we go through a full load
balance to try pull job from all the other cpus.  While 0.1 msec was
spent on processing the request and generating a response, the 0.13 msec
load balance overhead was actually more than the actual work being done.
This overhead can be skipped much of the time for lightly loaded systems.

With this patch, we tested with a netperf request/response workload that
has the server busy with half the cpus in a 4 socket system.  We found
the patch eliminated 75% of the load balance attempts before idling a cpu.

The overhead of setting/clearing the indicator is low as we already gather
the necessary info while we call add_nr_running() and update_sd_lb_stats.()
We switch to full load balance load immediately if any cpu got more than
one job on its run queue in add_nr_running.  We'll clear the indicator
to avoid load balance when we detect no cpu's have more than one job
when we scan the work queues in update_sg_lb_stats().  We are aggressive
in turning on the load balance and opportunistic in skipping the load
balance.

c06f04c704 sched: Fix potential near-infinite distribute_cfs_runtime() loop
distribute_cfs_runtime() intentionally only hands out enough runtime to
bring each cfs_rq to 1 ns of runtime, expecting the cfs_rqs to then take
the runtime they need only once they actually get to run. However, if
they get to run sufficiently quickly, the period timer is still in
distribute_cfs_runtime() and no runtime is available, causing them to
throttle. Then distribute has to handle them again, and this can go on
until distribute has handed out all of the runtime 1ns at a time, which
takes far too long.

Instead allow access to the same runtime that distribute is handing out,
accepting that corner cases with very low quota may be able to spend the
entire cfs_b->runtime during distribute_cfs_runtime, meaning that the
runtime directly handed out by distribute_cfs_runtime was over quota. In
addition, if a cfs_rq does manage to throttle like this, make sure the
existing distribute_cfs_runtime no longer loops over it again.

4a81e8328d rcu: Reduce overhead of cond_resched() checks for RCU
Commit ac1bea8578 (Make cond_resched() report RCU quiescent states)
fixed a problem where a CPU looping in the kernel with but one runnable
task would give RCU CPU stall warnings, even if the in-kernel loop
contained cond_resched() calls.  Unfortunately, in so doing, it introduced
performance regressions in Anton Blanchard's will-it-scale "open1" test.
The problem appears to be not so much the increased cond_resched() path
length as an increase in the rate at which grace periods complete, which
increased per-update grace-period overhead.

This commit takes a different approach to fixing this bug, mainly by
moving the RCU-visible quiescent state from cond_resched() to
rcu_note_context_switch(), and by further reducing the check to a
simple non-zero test of a single per-CPU variable.  However, this
approach requires that the force-quiescent-state processing send
resched IPIs to the offending CPUs.  These will be sent only once
the grace period has reached an age specified by the boot/sysfs
parameter rcutree.jiffies_till_sched_qs, or once the grace period
reaches an age halfway to the point at which RCU CPU stall warnings
will be emitted, whichever comes first.

a43455a1d5 sched/numa: Ensure task_numa_migrate() checks the preferred node
The first thing task_numa_migrate() does is check to see if there is
CPU capacity available on the preferred node, in order to move the
task there.

However, if the preferred node is all busy, we would skip considering
that node for tasks swaps in the subsequent loop. This prevents NUMA
convergence of tasks on busy systems.

However, swapping locations with a task on our preferred nid, when
the preferred nid is busy, is perfectly fine.

The fix is to also look for a CPU on our preferred nid when it is
totally busy.

This changes "perf bench numa mem -p 4 -t 20 -m -0 -P 1000" from
not converging in 15 minutes on my 4 node system, to converging in
10-20 seconds.

3882ec6439 nohz: Use IPI implicit full barrier against rq->nr_running r/w
A full dynticks CPU is allowed to stop its tick when a single task runs.
Meanwhile when a new task gets enqueued, the CPU must be notified so that
it can restart its tick to maintain local fairness and other accounting
details.

This notification is performed by way of an IPI. Then when the target
receives the IPI, we expect it to see the new value of rq->nr_running.

Hence the following ordering scenario:

   CPU 0                   CPU 1

   write rq->running       get IPI
   smp_wmb()               smp_rmb()
   send IPI                read rq->nr_running

But Paul Mckenney says that nowadays IPIs imply a full barrier on
all architectures. So we can safely remove this pair and rely on the
implicit barriers that come along IPI send/receive. Lets
just comment on this new assumption.

53c5fa16b4 nohz: Switch to nohz full remote kick on timer enqueue
When a new timer is enqueued on a full dynticks target, that CPU must
re-evaluate the next tick to handle the timer correctly.

This is currently performed through the scheduler IPI. Meanwhile this
happens at the cost of off-topic workarounds in that fast path to make
it call irq_exit().

As we plan to remove this hack off the scheduler IPI, lets use
the nohz full kick instead. Pretty much any IPI fits for that job
as long at it calls irq_exit(). The nohz full kick just happens to be
handy and readily available here.

If it happens to be too much an overkill in the future, we can still
turn that timer kick into an empty IPI.
