0bed612be6 cpufreq: sched: Helpers to add and remove update_util hooks
Replace the single helper for adding and removing cpufreq utilization
update hooks, cpufreq_set_update_util_data(), with a pair of helpers,
cpufreq_add_update_util_hook() and cpufreq_remove_update_util_hook(),
and modify the users of cpufreq_set_update_util_data() accordingly.

With the new helpers, the code using them doesn't need to worry
about the internals of struct update_util_data and in particular
it doesn't need to worry about populating the func field in it
properly upfront.

2b8c41daba sched/fair: Initiate a new task's util avg to a bounded value
A new task's util_avg is set to full utilization of a CPU (100% time
running). This accelerates a new task's utilization ramp-up, useful to
boost its execution in early time. However, it may result in
(insanely) high utilization for a transient time period when a flood
of tasks are spawned. Importantly, it violates the "fundamentally
bounded" CPU utilization, and its side effect is negative if we don't
take any measure to bound it.

This patch proposes an algorithm to address this issue. It has
two methods to approach a sensible initial util_avg:

(1) An expected (or average) util_avg based on its cfs_rq's util_avg:

  util_avg = cfs_rq->util_avg / (cfs_rq->load_avg + 1) * se.load.weight

(2) A trajectory of how successive new tasks' util develops, which
gives 1/2 of the left utilization budget to a new task such that
the additional util is noticeably large (when overall util is low) or
unnoticeably small (when overall util is high enough). In the meantime,
the aggregate utilization is well bounded:

  util_avg_cap = (1024 - cfs_rq->avg.util_avg) / 2^n

where n denotes the nth task.

If util_avg is larger than util_avg_cap, then the effective util is
clamped to the util_avg_cap.

As I'm tracing preemption disabled, it seemed incorrect that the trace
would go across a schedule and report not being in the scheduler.
Looking into this I discovered the problem.

schedule() calls preempt_disable() but the preempt_schedule() calls
preempt_enable_notrace(). What happened above was that the gnome-shell
task was preempted on another CPU, migrated over to the idle cpu. The
tracer stared with idle calling schedule(), which called
preempt_disable(), but then gnome-shell finished, and it enabled
preemption with preempt_enable_notrace() that does stop the trace, even
though preemption was enabled.

The purpose of the preempt_disable_notrace() in the preempt_schedule()
is to prevent function tracing from going into an infinite loop.
Because function tracing can trace the preempt_enable/disable() calls
that are traced. The problem with function tracing is:

  NEED_RESCHED set
  preempt_schedule()
    preempt_disable()
      preempt_count_inc()
        function trace (before incrementing preempt count)
          preempt_disable_notrace()
          preempt_enable_notrace()
            sees NEED_RESCHED set
               preempt_schedule() (repeat)

Now by breaking out the preempt off/on tracing into their own code:
preempt_disable_check() and preempt_enable_check(), we can add these to
the preempt_schedule() code. As preemption would then be disabled, even
if they were to be traced by the function tracer, the disabled
preemption would prevent the recursion.

d02c071183 sched/fair: Reset nr_balance_failed after active balancing
To force a task migration during active balancing, nr_balance_failed is set
to cache_nice_tries + 1. However nr_balance_failed is not reset. As a side
effect, the next regular load balance under the same sd, a cache hot task
might be migrated, just because nr_balance_failed count is high.

Resetting nr_balance_failed after a successful active balance ensures
that a hot task is not unreasonably migrated. This can be verified by
looking at othe number of hot task migrations reported by /proc/schedstat.

d740037fac sched/cpuacct: Split usage accounting into user_usage and sys_usage
Sometimes, cpuacct.usage is not detailed enough to see how much CPU
usage a group had. We want to know how much time it used in user mode
and how much in kernel mode.

This patch introduces more files to give this information:

 # ls /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/cpuacct.usage*
 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/cpuacct.usage
 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/cpuacct.usage_percpu
 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/cpuacct.usage_user
 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/cpuacct.usage_percpu_user
 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/cpuacct.usage_sys
 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/cpuacct.usage_percpu_sys

... while keeping the ABI with the existing counter.

5529578a27 locking/atomic, sched: Unexport fetch_or()
This patch functionally reverts:

  5fd7a09cfb ("atomic: Export fetch_or()")

During the merge Linus observed that the generic version of fetch_or()
was messy:

  " This makes the ugly "fetch_or()" macro that the scheduler used
    internally a new generic helper, and does a bad job at it. "

  e23604edac Merge branch 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Now that we have introduced atomic_fetch_or(), fetch_or() is only used
by the scheduler in order to deal with thread_info flags which type
can vary across architectures.

Lets confine fetch_or() back to the scheduler so that we encourage
future users to use the more robust and well typed atomic_t version
instead.

While at it, fetch_or() gets robustified, pasting improvements from a
previous patch by Ingo Molnar that avoids needless expression
re-evaluations in the loop.

5c9a8750a6 kernel: add kcov code coverage
kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing
(randomized testing).  Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique
that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a
system.  A notable user-space example is AFL
(http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/).  However, this technique is not
widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel
support.

kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible.  It aims to
collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs.
To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard
interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or
non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g.  scheduler, locking).

Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the
API anticipates additional collection modes.  Initially I also
implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash
table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch).  I've
dropped the second mode for simplicity.

This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side.  The complimentary
compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296.

We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has
found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months:

  https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs

We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller.
Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly
help is more traditional "blob mutation".  For example, mounting a
random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire.

Why not gcov.  Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset
coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat.  A
typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g.  an invalid
input).  In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as
reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic
blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M).  Cost of
kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges.  On top of
that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always
background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage.
With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible.

kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is
insecure.  But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible.

Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

3a47d5124a sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration
Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups)
the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues.

The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates
time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that
light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in
relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past).

This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we
might be placing the current task.

The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any
other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any
other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment
in time, and not in the past.

2f5177f0fd sched/cgroup: Fix/cleanup cgroup teardown/init
The CPU controller hasn't kept up with the various changes in the whole
cgroup initialization / destruction sequence, and commit:

  2e91fa7f6d ("cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups")

caused it to explode.

The reason for this is that zombies do not inhibit css_offline() from
being called, but do stall css_released(). Now we tear down the cfs_rq
structures on css_offline() but zombies can run after that, leading to
use-after-free issues.

The solution is to move the tear-down to css_released(), which
guarantees nobody (including no zombies) is still using our cgroup.

Furthermore, a few simple cleanups are possible too. There doesn't
appear to be any point to us using css_online() (anymore?) so fold that
in css_alloc().

And since cgroup code guarantees an RCU grace period between
css_released() and css_free() we can forgo using call_rcu() and free the
stuff immediately.

26660a4046 Merge branch 'core-objtool-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull 'objtool' stack frame validation from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree adds a new kernel build-time object file validation feature
  (ONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y): kernel stack frame correctness validation.
  It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf.

  The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most
  of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that
  degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces.  These bugs are
  hard to detect at the source code level.  Such bugs result in
  incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some
  rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior.

  The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool'
  user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is
  hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/.  The tool's (very
  simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and
  shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling
  infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already
  upstream).  Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style.

  Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the
  resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes
  the instruction stream and interprets it.  (Right now objtool supports
  the x86-64 architecture.)

  From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt:

   "The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named
    objtool which runs at compile time.  It has a "check" subcommand
    which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack
    metadata.  It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline
    assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable.

    Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to
    add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files.

    For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths
    and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction.

    It also follows code paths involving special sections, like
    .altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add
    alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of
    instructions).  Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements,
    for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables."

  When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the
  tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs
  warnings in compiler warning format:

    warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch
    warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup
    warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save
    warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer

  ... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them.
  All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most
  of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free.  Most of
  them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are
  also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases
  such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code.

  There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well:

   - To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so
     that they can be used for optimized live patching.

   - To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of
     CFI stack frames at build time.  CFI debuginfo is notoriously
     unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra
     checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side.

  The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well,
  so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching
  or CFI debuginfo angle"

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "cgroup changes for v4.6-rc1.  No userland visible behavior changes in
  this pull request.  I'll send out a separate pull request for the
  addition of cgroup namespace support.

   - The biggest change is the revamping of cgroup core task migration
     and controller handling logic.  There are quite a few places where
     controllers and tasks are manipulated.  Previously, many of those
     places implemented custom operations for each specific use case
     assuming specific starting conditions.  While this worked, it makes
     the code fragile and difficult to follow.

     The bulk of this pull request restructures these operations so that
     most related operations are performed through common helpers which
     implement recursive (subtrees are always processed consistently)
     and idempotent (they make cgroup hierarchy converge to the target
     state rather than performing operations assuming specific starting
     conditions).  This makes the code a lot easier to understand,
     verify and extend.

   - Implicit controller support is added.  This is primarily for using
     perf_event on the v2 hierarchy so that perf can match cgroup v2
     path without requiring the user to do anything special.  The kernel
     portion of perf_event changes is acked but userland changes are
     still pending review.

   - cgroup_no_v1= boot parameter added to ease testing cgroup v2 in
     certain environments.

   - There is a regression introduced during v4.4 devel cycle where
     attempts to migrate zombie tasks can mess up internal object
     management.  This was fixed earlier this week and included in this
     pull request w/ stable cc'd.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This time the majority of changes go into cpufreq and they are
  significant.

  First off, the way CPU frequency updates are triggered is different
  now.  Instead of having to set up and manage a deferrable timer for
  each CPU in the system to evaluate and possibly change its frequency
  periodically, cpufreq governors set up callbacks to be invoked by the
  scheduler on a regular basis (basically on utilization updates).  The
  "old" governors, "ondemand" and "conservative", still do all of their
  work in process context (although that is triggered by the scheduler
  now), but intel_pstate does it all in the callback invoked by the
  scheduler with no need for any additional asynchronous processing.

  Of course, this eliminates the overhead related to the management of
  all those timers, but also it allows the cpufreq governor code to be
  simplified quite a bit.  On top of that, the common code and data
  structures used by the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors are
  cleaned up and made more straightforward and some long-standing and
  quite annoying problems are addressed.  In particular, the handling of
  governor sysfs attributes is modified and the related locking becomes
  more fine grained which allows some concurrency problems to be avoided
  (particularly deadlocks with the core cpufreq code).

  In principle, the new mechanism for triggering frequency updates
  allows utilization information to be passed from the scheduler to
  cpufreq.  Although the current code doesn't make use of it, in the
  works is a new cpufreq governor that will make decisions based on the
  scheduler's utilization data.  That should allow the scheduler and
  cpufreq to work more closely together in the long run.

  In addition to the core and governor changes, cpufreq drivers are
  updated too.  Fixes and optimizations go into intel_pstate, the
  cpufreq-dt driver is updated on top of some modification in the
  Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework and there are fixes and
  other updates in the powernv cpufreq driver.

  Apart from the cpufreq updates there is some new ACPICA material,
  including a fix for a problem introduced by previous ACPICA updates,
  and some less significant changes in the ACPI code, like CPPC code
  optimizations, ACPI processor driver cleanups and support for loading
  ACPI tables from initrd.

  Also updated are the generic power domains framework, the Intel RAPL
  power capping driver and the turbostat utility and we have a bunch of
  traditional assorted fixes and cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Redesign of cpufreq governors and the intel_pstate driver to make
     them use callbacks invoked by the scheduler to trigger CPU
     frequency evaluation instead of using per-CPU deferrable timers for

   - Runs all online and prepare down callbacks on the plugged cpu and
     not on some random processor

   - Replaces busy loop waiting with completions

   - Adds tracepoints so the states can be followed"

More detailed commentary on this work from an earlier email:
 "What's wrong with the current cpu hotplug infrastructure?

   - Asymmetry

     The hotplug notifier mechanism is asymmetric versus the bringup and
     teardown.  This is mostly caused by the notifier mechanism.

   - Largely undocumented dependencies

     While some notifiers use explicitely defined notifier priorities,
     we have quite some notifiers which use numerical priorities to
     express dependencies without any documentation why.

   - Control processor driven

     Most of the bringup/teardown of a cpu is driven by a control
     processor.  While it is understandable, that preperatory steps,
     like idle thread creation, memory allocation for and initialization
     of essential facilities needs to be done before a cpu can boot,
     there is no reason why everything else must run on a control
     processor.  Before this patch series, bringup looks like this:

       Control CPU                     Booting CPU

       do preparatory steps
       kick cpu into life

                                       do low level init

       sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu

       bring the rest up

   - All or nothing approach

     There is no way to do partial bringups.  That's something which is
     really desired because we waste e.g.  at boot substantial amount of
     time just busy waiting that the cpu comes to life.  That's stupid
     as we could very well do preparatory steps and the initial IPI for
     other cpus and then go back and do the necessary low level
     synchronization with the freshly booted cpu.

   - Minimal debuggability

     Due to the notifier based design, it's impossible to switch between
     two stages of the bringup/teardown back and forth in order to test
     the correctness.  So in many hotplug notifiers the cancel
     mechanisms are either not existant or completely untested.

   - Notifier [un]registering is tedious

     To [un]register notifiers we need to protect against hotplug at
     every callsite.  There is no mechanism that bringup/teardown
     callbacks are issued on the online cpus, so every caller needs to
     do it itself.  That also includes error rollback.

  What's the new design?

     The base of the new design is a symmetric state machine, where both
     the control processor and the booting/dying cpu execute a well
     defined set of states.  Each state is symmetric in the end, except
     for some well defined exceptions, and the bringup/teardown can be
     stopped and reversed at almost all states.

     So the bringup of a cpu will look like this in the future:

       Control CPU                     Booting CPU

       do preparatory steps
       kick cpu into life

                                       do low level init

       sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu

                                       bring itself up

     The synchronization step does not require the control cpu to wait.
     That mechanism can be done asynchronously via a worker or some
     other mechanism.

     The teardown can be made very similar, so that the dying cpu cleans
     up and brings itself down.  Cleanups which need to be done after
     the cpu is gone, can be scheduled asynchronously as well.

  There is a long way to this, as we need to refactor the notion when a
  cpu is available.  Today we set the cpu online right after it comes
  out of the low level bringup, which is not really correct.

  The proper mechanism is to set it to available, i.e. cpu local
  threads, like softirqd, hotplug thread etc. can be scheduled on that
  cpu, and once it finished all booting steps, it's set to online, so
  general workloads can be scheduled on it.  The reverse happens on
  teardown.  First thing to do is to forbid scheduling of general
  workloads, then teardown all the per cpu resources and finally shut it
  off completely.

  This patch series implements the basic infrastructure for this at the
  core level.  This includes the following:

   - Basic state machine implementation with well defined states, so
     ordering and prioritization can be expressed.

   - Interfaces to [un]register state callbacks

     This invokes the bringup/teardown callback on all online cpus with
     the proper protection in place and [un]installs the callbacks in
     the state machine array.

     For callbacks which have no particular ordering requirement we have
     a dynamic state space, so that drivers don't have to register an
     explicit hotplug state.

     If a callback fails, the code automatically does a rollback to the
     previous state.

   - Sysfs interface to drive the state machine to a particular step.

     This is only partially functional today.  Full functionality and
     therefor testability will be achieved once we converted all
     existing hotplug notifiers over to the new scheme.

   - Run all CPU_ONLINE/DOWN_PREPARE notifiers on the booting/dying
     processor:

       Control CPU                     Booting CPU

       do preparatory steps
       kick cpu into life

                                       do low level init

       sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu
       wait for boot
                                       bring itself up

                                       Signal completion to control cpu

     In a previous step of this work we've done a full tree mechanical
     conversion of all hotplug notifiers to the new scheme.  The balance
     is a net removal of about 4000 lines of code.

     This is not included in this series, as we decided to take a
     different approach.  Instead of mechanically converting everything
     over, we will do a proper overhaul of the usage sites one by one so
     they nicely fit into the symmetric callback scheme.

     I decided to do that after I looked at the ugliness of some of the
     converted sites and figured out that their hotplug mechanism is
     completely buggered anyway.  So there is no point to do a
     mechanical conversion first as we need to go through the usage
     sites one by one again in order to achieve a full symmetric and
     testable behaviour"

e1b77c9298 sched/kasan: remove stale KASAN poison after hotplug
Functions which the compiler has instrumented for KASAN place poison on
the stack shadow upon entry and remove this poision prior to returning.

In the case of CPU hotplug, CPUs exit the kernel a number of levels deep
in C code.  Any instrumented functions on this critical path will leave
portions of the stack shadow poisoned.

When a CPU is subsequently brought back into the kernel via a different
path, depending on stackframe, layout calls to instrumented functions
may hit this stale poison, resulting in (spurious) KASAN splats to the
console.

To avoid this, clear any stale poison from the idle thread for a CPU
prior to bringing a CPU online.

Pull nohz enhancements from Frederic Weisbecker:

"Currently in nohz full configs, the tick dependency is checked
 asynchronously by nohz code from interrupt and context switch for each
 concerned subsystem with a set of function provided by these. Such
 functions are made of many conditions and details that can be heavyweight
 as they are called on fastpath: sched_can_stop_tick(),
 posix_cpu_timer_can_stop_tick(), perf_event_can_stop_tick()...

 Thomas suggested a few months ago to make that tick dependency check
 synchronous. Instead of checking subsystems details from each interrupt
 to guess if the tick can be stopped, every subsystem that may have a tick
 dependency should set itself a flag specifying the state of that
 dependency. This way we can verify if we can stop the tick with a single
 lightweight mask check on fast path.

 This conversion from a pull to a push model to implement tick dependency
 is the core feature of this patchset that is split into:

  * Nohz wide kick simplification
  * Improve nohz tracing
  * Introduce tick dependency mask
  * Migrate scheduler, posix timers, perf events and sched clock tick
    dependencies to the tick dependency mask."

f9c904b761 sched/cputime: Fix steal_account_process_tick() to always return jiffies
The callers of steal_account_process_tick() expect it to return
whether a jiffy should be considered stolen or not.

Currently the return value of steal_account_process_tick() is in
units of cputime, which vary between either jiffies or nsecs
depending on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN.

If cputime has nsecs granularity and there is a tiny amount of
stolen time (a few nsecs, say) then we will consider the entire
tick stolen and will not account the tick on user/system/idle,
causing /proc/stats to show invalid data.

The fix is to change steal_account_process_tick() to accumulate
the stolen time and only account it once it's worth a jiffy.

(Thanks to Frederic Weisbecker for suggestions to fix a bug in my
first version of the patch.)

The dl_new field of struct sched_dl_entity is currently used to
identify new deadline tasks, so that their deadline and runtime
can be properly initialised.

However, these tasks can be easily identified by checking if
their deadline is smaller than the current time when they switch
to SCHED_DEADLINE. So, dl_new can be removed by introducing this
check in switched_to_dl(); this allows to simplify the

e9532e69b8 sched/cputime: Fix steal time accounting vs. CPU hotplug
On CPU hotplug the steal time accounting can keep a stale rq->prev_steal_time
value over CPU down and up. So after the CPU comes up again the delta
calculation in steal_account_process_tick() wreckages itself due to the
unsigned math:

	 u64 steal = paravirt_steal_clock(smp_processor_id());

	 steal -= this_rq()->prev_steal_time;

So if steal is smaller than rq->prev_steal_time we end up with an insane large
value which then gets added to rq->prev_steal_time, resulting in a permanent
wreckage of the accounting. As a consequence the per CPU stats in /proc/stat
become stale.

Nice trick to tell the world how idle the system is (100%) while the CPU is
100% busy running tasks. Though we prefer realistic numbers.

None of the accounting values which use a previous value to account for
fractions is reset at CPU hotplug time. update_rq_clock_task() has a sanity
check for prev_irq_time and prev_steal_time_rq, but that sanity check solely
deals with clock warps and limits the /proc/stat visible wreckage. The
prev_time values are still wrong.

Solution is simple: Reset rq->prev_*_time when the CPU is plugged in again.

76d92ac305 sched: Migrate sched to use new tick dependency mask model
Instead of providing asynchronous checks for the nohz subsystem to verify
sched tick dependency, migrate sched to the new mask.

Everytime a task is enqueued or dequeued, we evaluate the state of the
tick dependency on top of the policy of the tasks in the runqueue, by
order of priority:

SCHED_DEADLINE: Need the tick in order to periodically check for runtime
SCHED_FIFO    : Don't need the tick (no round-robin)
SCHED_RR      : Need the tick if more than 1 task of the same priority
                for round robin (simplified with checking if more than
                one SCHED_RR task no matter what priority).
SCHED_NORMAL  : Need the tick if more than 1 task for round-robin.

We could optimize that further with one flag per sched policy on the tick
dependency mask and perform only the checks relevant to the policy
concerned by an enqueue/dequeue operation.

Since the checks aren't based on the current task anymore, we could get
rid of the task switch hook but it's still needed for posix cpu
timers.

f904f58263 sched/debug: Fix preempt_disable_ip recording for preempt_disable()
The preempt_disable() invokes preempt_count_add() which saves the caller
in ->preempt_disable_ip. It uses CALLER_ADDR1 which does not look for
its caller but for the parent of the caller. Which means we get the correct
caller for something like spin_lock() unless the architectures inlines
those invocations. It is always wrong for preempt_disable() or
local_bh_disable().

This patch makes the function get_lock_parent_ip() which tries
CALLER_ADDR0,1,2 if the former is a locking function.
This seems to record the preempt_disable() caller properly for
preempt_disable() itself as well as for get_cpu_var() or
local_bh_disable().

Steven asked for the get_parent_ip() -> get_lock_parent_ip() rename.

ff9a9b4c43 sched, time: Switch VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN to jiffy granularity
When profiling syscall overhead on nohz-full kernels,
after removing __acct_update_integrals() from the profile,
native_sched_clock() remains as the top CPU user. This can be
reduced by moving VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN to jiffy granularity.

This will reduce timing accuracy on nohz_full CPUs to jiffy
based sampling, just like on normal CPUs. It results in
totally removing native_sched_clock from the profile, and
significantly speeding up the syscall entry and exit path,
as well as irq entry and exit, and KVM guest entry & exit.

Additionally, only call the more expensive functions (and
advance the seqlock) when jiffies actually changed.

This code relies on another CPU advancing jiffies when the
system is busy. On a nohz_full system, this is done by a
housekeeping CPU.

A microbenchmark calling an invalid syscall number 10 million
times in a row speeds up an additional 30% over the numbers
with just the previous patches, for a total speedup of about
40% over 4.4 and 4.5-rc1.

Run times for the microbenchmark:

 4.4				3.8 seconds
 4.5-rc1			3.7 seconds
 4.5-rc1 + first patch		3.3 seconds
 4.5-rc1 + first 3 patches	3.1 seconds
 4.5-rc1 + all patches		2.3 seconds

A non-NOHZ_FULL cpu (not the housekeeping CPU):

 all kernels			1.86 seconds

c3a990dc9f sched/rt: Kick RT bandwidth timer immediately on start up
I've been debugging why deadline tasks can cause the RT scheduler to
throttle, even when the deadline tasks are only taking up 50% of the
CPU and RT tasks are not even using 1% of the CPU. Here's what I found.

In order to keep a CPU from being hogged by RT tasks, the deadline
scheduler adds its run time (delta_exec) to the rt_time of the RT
bandwidth. That way, if the two use more than 95% of the CPU within one
second (default settings), the RT tasks are throttled to allow non RT
tasks to run.

Although the deadline tasks add their run time to the RT bandwidth, it
lets the RT tasks do the accounting. This is where the problem lies. If
a deadline task runs for a bit, and no RT tasks are running, then it
will continually add to the RT rt_time that is used to calculate how
much CPU the RT tasks use. But no RT period is in play, and this
accumulation of the runtime never gets reset.

When an RT task finally gets to run, and the watchdog goes off, it can
see that the RT task has used more than it should of, because the
deadline task added all this runtime to its rt_time. Then the RT task
that just woke up gets throttled for no good reason.

I also noticed that when an RT task is queued, it starts the timer to
account for overload and such. But that timer goes off one period
later, which may be too late and the extra rt_time will trigger a
throttle.

This is a quick work around to the problem. When a new RT task is
queued, the bandwidth timer is set to go off immediately. Then the
timer can clear out the extra time added to the rt_time while there was
no RT task running. This stops my tests from triggering the throttle,
and it will still throttle if an RT task runs too much, even while a
deadline task is running.

A better solution may be to subtract the bandwidth that the deadline
task uses from the rt_runtime, and add it back when its finished. Then
there wont be a need for runtime tracking of the time used by deadline
tasks.

I may play with that solution tomorrow.

ef477183d0 sched/debug: Add deadline scheduler bandwidth ratio to /proc/sched_debug
Playing with SCHED_DEADLINE and cpusets, I found that I was unable to create
new SCHED_DEADLINE tasks, with the error of EBUSY as if the bandwidth was
already used up. I then realized there wa no way to see what bandwidth is
used by the runqueues to debug the issue.

By adding the dl_bw->bw and dl_bw->total_bw to the output of the deadline
info in /proc/sched_debug, this allows us to see what bandwidth has been
reserved and where a problem may exist.

For example, before the issue we see the ratio of the bandwidth:

 # cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us
 950000
 # cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_period_us
 1000000

  # grep dl /proc/sched_debug

    .dl_bw->total_bw               : 0

Note: (950000 / 1000000) << 20 == 996147

After I played with cpusets and hit the issue, the result is now:

    .dl_bw->total_bw               : -104857

This shows that there is definitely a problem as we should never have a
negative total bandwidth.

So normally we dequeue/enqueue tasks in sched_setscheduler(), which
would ensure the accounting stays correct. However in the early PI path
we fail to do so.

So this was introduced at around v3.14, by:

  c365c292d0 ("sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()")

which fixed another problem exactly because that dequeue/enqueue, joy.

Fix this by teaching rt about DEQUEUE_SAVE/ENQUEUE_RESTORE and have it
preserve runqueue location with that option. This requires decoupling
the on_rt_rq() state from being on the list.

In order to allow for explicit movement during the SAVE/RESTORE,
introduce {DE,EN}QUEUE_MOVE. We still must use SAVE/RESTORE in these
cases to preserve other invariants.

Respecting the SAVE/RESTORE flags also has the (nice) side-effect that
things like sys_nice()/sys_sched_setaffinity() also do not reorder
FIFO tasks (whereas they used to before this patch).

48be3a67da sched/deadline: Always calculate end of period on sched_yield()
Steven noticed that occasionally a sched_yield() call would not result
in a wait for the next period edge as expected.

It turns out that when we call update_curr_dl() and end up with
delta_exec <= 0, we will bail early and fail to throttle.

Further inspection of the yield code revealed that yield_task_dl()
clearing dl.runtime is wrong too, it will not account the last bit of
runtime which could result in dl.runtime < 0, which in turn means that
replenish would gift us with too much runtime.

Fix both issues by not relying on the dl.runtime value for yield.

6fe1f348b3 sched/cgroup: Fix cgroup entity load tracking tear-down
When a cgroup's CPU runqueue is destroyed, it should remove its
remaining load accounting from its parent cgroup.

The current site for doing so it unsuited because its far too late and
unordered against other cgroup removal (->css_free() will be, but we're also
in an RCU callback).

Put it in the ->css_offline() callback, which is the start of cgroup
destruction, right after the group has been made unavailable to
userspace. The ->css_offline() callbacks are called in hierarchical order
after the following v4.4 commit:

  aa226ff4a1 ("cgroup: make sure a parent css isn't offlined before its children")

049369487e sched: Always inline context_switch()
When CONFIG_GCOV is enabled, gcc decides to put context_switch()
out-of-line, which is inconsistent with its normal behavior.

It also causes an objtool warning because __schedule() no longer inlines
context_switch(), so the "STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD(__schedule)"
statement loses its effect.

8e05e96ac9 sched: Mark __schedule() stack frame as non-standard
objtool reports the following warnings for __schedule():

  kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save
  kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
  kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x40a: call without frame pointer save/setup
  kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x7fd: frame pointer state mismatch
  kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x421: frame pointer state mismatch

Basically it's confused by two unusual attributes of the switch_to()
macro:

1. It saves prev's frame pointer to the old stack and restores next's
   frame pointer from the new stack.

2. For new tasks it jumps directly to ret_from_fork.

Eventually it would probably be a good idea to clean up the
ret_from_fork hack so that new tasks are created with a valid initial
stack, as suggested by Andy:

  https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CALCETrWsqCw4L1qKO9j9L5F+4ED4viuLQTFc=n1pKBZfFPQUFg@mail.gmail.com

Then __schedule() could return normally into the new code and objtool
hopefully wouldn't have a problem anymore.

In the meantime, mark its stack frame as non-standard so we can have a
baseline with no objtool warnings.  The marker also serves as a reminder
that this code could be improved a bit.

13b35686e8 wait.[ch]: Introduce the simple waitqueue (swait) implementation
The existing wait queue support has support for custom wake up call
backs, wake flags, wake key (passed to call back) and exclusive
flags that allow wakers to be tagged as exclusive, for limiting
the number of wakers.

In a lot of cases, none of these features are used, and hence we
can benefit from a slimmed down version that lowers memory overhead
and reduces runtime overhead.

The concept originated from -rt, where waitqueues are a constant
source of trouble, as we can't convert the head lock to a raw
spinlock due to fancy and long lasting callbacks.

With the removal of custom callbacks, we can use a raw lock for
queue list manipulations, hence allowing the simple wait support
to be used in -rt.

[Patch is from PeterZ which is based on Thomas version. Commit message is
 written by Paul G.
 Daniel:  - Fixed some compile issues
 	  - Added non-lazy implementation of swake_up_locked as suggested
	     by Boqun Feng.]

4142c3ebb6 sched/numa: Spread memory according to CPU and memory use
The pseudo-interleaving in NUMA placement has a fundamental problem:
using hard usage thresholds to spread memory equally between nodes
can prevent workloads from converging, or keep memory "trapped" on
nodes where the workload is barely running any more.

In order for workloads to properly converge, the memory migration
should not be stopped when nodes reach parity, but instead be
distributed according to how heavily memory is used from each node.
This way memory migration and task migration reinforce each other,
instead of one putting the brakes on the other.

Remove the hard thresholds from the pseudo-interleaving code, and
instead use a more gradual policy on memory placement. This also
seems to improve convergence of workloads that do not run flat out,
but sleep in between bursts of activity.

We still want to slow down NUMA scanning and migration once a workload
has settled on a few actively used nodes, so keep the 3/4 hysteresis
in place. Keep track of whether a workload is actively running on
multiple nodes, so task_numa_migrate does a full scan of the system
for better task placement.

In the case of running 3 SPECjbb2005 instances on a 4 node system,
this code seems to result in fairer distribution of memory between
nodes, with more memory bandwidth for each instance.

cb2517653f sched/debug: Make schedstats a runtime tunable that is disabled by default
schedstats is very useful during debugging and performance tuning but it
incurs overhead to calculate the stats. As such, even though it can be
disabled at build time, it is often enabled as the information is useful.

This patch adds a kernel command-line and sysctl tunable to enable or
disable schedstats on demand (when it's built in). It is disabled
by default as someone who knows they need it can also learn to enable
it when necessary.

The benefits are dependent on how scheduler-intensive the workload is.
If it is then the patch reduces the number of cycles spent calculating
the stats with a small benefit from reducing the cache footprint of the
scheduler.

These measurements were taken from a 48-core 2-socket
machine with Xeon(R) E5-2670 v3 cpus although they were also tested on a
single socket machine 8-core machine with Intel i7-3770 processors.

it's close to the noise. The UMA machine did not show anything particularly

Small improvement and similar gains were seen on the UMA machine.

The gain is small but it stands to reason that doing less work in the
scheduler is a good thing. The downside is that the lack of schedstats and
tracepoints may be surprising to experts doing performance analysis until
they find the existence of the schedstats= parameter or schedstats sysctl.
It will be automatically activated for latencytop and sleep profiling to
alleviate the problem. For tracepoints, there is a simple warning as it's
not safe to activate schedstats in the context when it's known the tracepoint
may be wanted but is unavailable.

a6e4491c68 sched/isolcpus: Output warning when the 'isolcpus=' kernel parameter is invalid
The isolcpus= kernel boot parameter restricts userspace from scheduling on
the specified CPUs.

If a CPU is specified that is outside the range of 0 to nr_cpu_ids,
cpulist_parse() will return -ERANGE, return an empty cpulist, and
fail silently.

This patch adds an error message to isolated_cpu_setup() to indicate to
the user that something has gone awry, and returns 0 on error.

As commit 1effd9f193 ("sched/numa: Fix unsafe get_task_struct() in
task_numa_assign()") points out, the rcu_read_lock() cannot protect the
task_struct from being freed in the finish_task_switch(). And the bug
happens in the process of calculation of imp which requires the access of
p->numa_faults being freed in the following path:

do_exit()
        current->flags |= PF_EXITING;
    release_task()
        ~~delayed_put_task_struct()~~
    schedule()
    ...
    ...
rq->curr = next;
    context_switch()
        finish_task_switch()
            put_task_struct()
                __put_task_struct()
		    task_numa_free()

The fix here to get_task_struct() early before end of dst_rq->lock to
protect the calculation process and also put_task_struct() in the
corresponding point if finally the dst_rq->curr somehow cannot be
assigned.

Additional credit to Liang Chen who helped fix the error logic and add the
put_task_struct() to the place it missed.

6f16886b7c cpuidle: fix fallback mechanism for suspend to idle in absence of enter_freeze
Commit 51164251f5 "sched / idle: Drop default_idle_call() fallback
from call_cpuidle()" made find_deepest_state() return non-negative
value and check all the states with index > 0.  Also as a result,
find_deepest_state() returns 0 even when enter_freeze callbacks are not
implemented and enter_freeze_proper() is called which ends up crashing
the kernel.

This patch updates the check for index > 0 in cpuidle_enter_freeze and
cpuidle_idle_call(when idle_should_freeze is true) to restore the
suspend-to-idle functionality in absence of enter_freeze callback.

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This includes fixes on top of the previous batch of PM+ACPI updates
  and some new material as well.

  From the new material perspective the most significant are the driver
  core changes that should allow USB devices to stay suspended over
  system suspend/resume cycles if they have been runtime-suspended
  already beforehand.  Apart from that, ACPICA is updated to upstream
  revision 20160108 (cosmetic mostly, but including one fixup on top of
  the previous ACPICA update) and there are some devfreq updates the
  didn't make it before (due to timing).

  A few recent regressions are fixed, most importantly in the cpuidle
  menu governor and in the ACPI backlight driver and some x86 platform
  drivers depending on it.

  Some more bugs are fixed and cleanups are made on top of that.

  Specifics:

   - Modify the driver core and the USB subsystem to allow USB devices
     to stay suspended over system suspend/resume cycles if they have
     been runtime-suspended already beforehand and fix some bugs on top

51164251f5 sched / idle: Drop default_idle_call() fallback from call_cpuidle()
After commit 9c4b2867ed (cpuidle: menu: Fix menu_select() for
CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START == 0) it is clear that menu_select()
cannot return negative values.  Moreover, ladder_select_state()
will never return a negative value too, so make find_deepest_state()
return non-negative values too and drop the default_idle_call()
fallback from call_cpuidle().

This eliminates one branch from the idle loop and makes the governors
and find_deepest_state() handle the case when all states have been
disabled from sysfs consistently.

9c03ee1471 sched: Fix crash in sched_init_numa()
The following PowerPC commit:

  c118baf802 ("arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c: do not allocate bootmem memory for non existing nodes")

avoids allocating bootmem memory for non existent nodes.

But when DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS=y is enabled, my powerNV system failed to boot
because in sched_init_numa(), cpumask_or() operation was done on
unallocated nodes.

Fix that by making cpumask_or() operation only on existing nodes.

[ Tested with and w/o DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS=y on x86 and PowerPC. ]

0eb77e9880 vmstat: make vmstat_updater deferrable again and shut down on idle
Currently the vmstat updater is not deferrable as a result of commit
ba4877b9ca ("vmstat: do not use deferrable delayed work for
vmstat_update").  This in turn can cause multiple interruptions of the
applications because the vmstat updater may run at

Make vmstate_update deferrable again and provide a function that folds
the differentials when the processor is going to idle mode thus
addressing the issue of the above commit in a clean way.

Note that the shepherd thread will continue scanning the differentials
from another processor and will reenable the vmstat workers if it
detects any changes.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:

 - cgroup v2 interface is now official.  It's no longer hidden behind a
   devel flag and can be mounted using the new cgroup2 fs type.

   Unfortunately, cpu v2 interface hasn't made it yet due to the
   discussion around in-process hierarchical resource distribution and
   only memory and io controllers can be used on the v2 interface at the
   moment.

 - The existing documentation which has always been a bit of mess is
   relocated under Documentation/cgroup-v1/. Documentation/cgroup-v2.txt
   is added as the authoritative documentation for the v2 interface.

 - Some features are added through for-4.5-ancestor-test branch to
   enable netfilter xt_cgroup match to use cgroup v2 paths.  The actual
   netfilter changes will be merged through the net tree which pulled in
   the said branch.

0905f04eb2 sched/fair: Fix new task's load avg removed from source CPU in wake_up_new_task()
If a newly created task is selected to go to a different CPU in fork
balance when it wakes up the first time, its load averages should
not be removed from the source CPU since they are never added to
it before. The same is also applicable to a never used group entity.

Fix it in remove_entity_load_avg(): when entity's last_update_time
is 0, simply return. This should precisely identify the case in
question, because in other migrations, the last_update_time is set
to 0 after remove_entity_load_avg().

7d92de3a82 sched/deadline: Fix the earliest_dl.next logic
earliest_dl.next should cache deadline of the earliest ready task that
is also enqueued in the pushable rbtree, as pull algorithm uses this
information to find candidates for migration: if the earliest_dl.next
deadline of source rq is earlier than the earliest_dl.curr deadline of
destination rq, the task from the source rq can be pulled.

However, current implementation only guarantees that earliest_dl.next is
the deadline of the next ready task instead of the next pushable task;
which will result in potentially holding both rqs' lock and find nothing
to migrate because of affinity constraints. In addition, current logic
doesn't update the next candidate for pushing in pick_next_task_dl(),
even if the running task is never eligible.

This patch fixes both problems by updating earliest_dl.next when
pushable dl task is enqueued/dequeued, similar to what we already do for
RT.

9e0e83a1ec sched/fair: Fix multiplication overflow on 32-bit systems
Make 'r' 64-bit type to avoid overflow in 'r * LOAD_AVG_MAX'
on 32-bit systems:

	UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/sched/fair.c:2785:18
	signed integer overflow:
	87950 * 47742 cannot be represented in type 'int'

The most likely effect of this bug are bad load average numbers
resulting in weird scheduling. It's also likely that this can
persist for a longer time - until the system goes idle for
a long time so that all load avg numbers get reset.

[ This is the CFS load average metric, not the procfs output, which
  is separate. ]

1fe7c4ef88 missing include asm/paravirt.h in cputime.c
Add include asm/paravirt.h to cputime.c, as steal_account_process_tick
calls paravirt_steal_clock, which is defined in asm/paravirt.h.

The ifdef CONFIG_PARAVIRT is necessary because not all archs have an
asm/paravirt.h to include.

The reason why currently cputime.c compiles, even though include
<asm/paravirt.h> is missing, is that on x86 asm/paravirt.h is included
by one of the other headers included in kernel/sched/cputime.c:

On arm and arm64, where I am about to introduce asm/paravirt.h and
stolen time support, without #include <asm/paravirt.h> in cputime.c, I
would get an error.

Jan Stancek reported that I wrecked things for him by fixing things for

His report was due to an UNINTERRUPTIBLE wait getting -EINTR, which
should not be possible, however my previous patch made this possible by
unconditionally checking signal_pending().

We cannot use current->state as was done previously, because the
instruction after the store to that variable it can be changed.  We must
instead pass the initial state along and use that.

 "More change than I'd have liked at this stage.  The pids controller
  and the changes made to cgroup core to support it introduced and

   - Assigning membership to a newly created task and migrating it can

     threadgroup synchronization.  It looks like we'll be able to merge
     it with a different percpu rwsem which is used in fork path making
     things simpler and cheaper.

   - The recent change to extend cgroup membership to zombies (so that
     pid accounting can extend till the pid is actually released) missed
     pinning the underlying data structures leading to use-after-free.
     Fixed.

   - v2 hierarchy was calling subsystem callbacks with the wrong target

for scheduler and timer going idle.

For scheduler softlockup detection, there's no reason to distinguish
the two cases; however, workqueue lockup detector is planned and it
can use the same signals from the former group while the latter would
spuriously prevent detection.  This patch introduces a new function
touch_softlockup_watchdog_sched() and convert the latter group to call
it instead.  For now, it just calls touch_softlockup_watchdog() and
there's no functional difference.

0b98f0c042 Merge branch 'master' into for-4.4-fixes
The following commit which went into mainline through networking tree

  3b13758f51 ("cgroups: Allow dynamically changing net_classid")

conflicts in net/core/netclassid_cgroup.c with the following pending
fix in cgroup/for-4.4-fixes.

  1f7dd3e5a6 ("cgroup: fix handling of multi-destination migration from subtree_control enabling")

The former separates out update_classid() from cgrp_attach() and
updates it to walk all fds of all tasks in the target css so that it
can be used from both migration and config change paths.  The latter
drops @css from cgrp_attach().

Resolve the conflict by making cgrp_attach() call update_classid()
with the css from the first task.  We can revive @tset walking in
cgrp_attach() but given that net_cls is v1 only where there always is
only one target css during migration, this is fine.

46a5d164db rcu: Stop disabling interrupts in scheduler fastpaths
We need the scheduler's fastpaths to be, well, fast, and unnecessarily
disabling and re-enabling interrupts is not necessarily consistent with
this goal.  Especially given that there are regions of the scheduler that
already have interrupts disabled.

This commit therefore moves the call to rcu_note_context_switch()
to one of the interrupts-disabled regions of the scheduler, and
removes the now-redundant disabling and re-enabling of interrupts from
rcu_note_context_switch() and the functions it calls.

aa0b7ae063 sched/fair: Disable the task group load_avg update for the root_task_group
Currently, the update_tg_load_avg() function attempts to update the
tg's load_avg value whenever the load changes even for root_task_group
where the load_avg value will never be used. This patch will disable
the load_avg update when the given task group is the root_task_group.

Running a Java benchmark with noautogroup and a 4.3 kernel on a
16-socket IvyBridge-EX system, the amount of CPU time (as reported by
perf) consumed by task_tick_fair() which includes update_tg_load_avg()
decreased from 0.71% to 0.22%, a more than 3X reduction. The Max-jOPs
results also increased slightly from 983015 to 986449.

b0367629ac sched/fair: Move the cache-hot 'load_avg' variable into its own cacheline
If a system with large number of sockets was driven to full
utilization, it was found that the clock tick handling occupied a
rather significant proportion of CPU time when fair group scheduling
and autogroup were enabled.

Running a java benchmark on a 16-socket IvyBridge-EX system, the perf
profile looked like:

  10.52%   0.00%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] smp_apic_timer_interrupt
   9.66%   0.05%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] hrtimer_interrupt
   8.65%   0.03%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] tick_sched_timer
   8.56%   0.00%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] update_process_times
   8.07%   0.03%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] scheduler_tick
   6.91%   1.78%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] task_tick_fair
   5.24%   5.04%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] update_cfs_shares

In particular, the high CPU time consumed by update_cfs_shares()
was mostly due to contention on the cacheline that contained the
task_group's load_avg statistical counter. This cacheline may also
contains variables like shares, cfs_rq & se which are accessed rather
frequently during clock tick processing.

This patch moves the load_avg variable into another cacheline
separated from the other frequently accessed variables. It also
creates a cacheline aligned kmemcache for task_group to make sure
that all the allocated task_group's are cacheline aligned.

By doing so, the perf profile became:

   9.44%   0.00%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] smp_apic_timer_interrupt
   8.74%   0.01%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] hrtimer_interrupt
   7.83%   0.03%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] tick_sched_timer
   7.74%   0.00%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] update_process_times
   7.27%   0.03%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] scheduler_tick
   5.94%   1.74%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] task_tick_fair
   4.15%   3.92%  java   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] update_cfs_shares

The %cpu time is still pretty high, but it is better than before. The
benchmark results before and after the patch was as follows:

  Before patch - Max-jOPs: 907533    Critical-jOps: 134877
  After patch  - Max-jOPs: 916011    Critical-jOps: 142366

a426f99c91 sched/fair: Avoid redundant idle_cpu() call in update_sg_lb_stats()
Part of the responsibility of the update_sg_lb_stats() function is to
update the idle_cpus statistical counter in struct sg_lb_stats. This
check is done by calling idle_cpu(). The idle_cpu() function, in
turn, checks a number of fields within the run queue structure such
as rq->curr and rq->nr_running.

With the current layout of the run queue structure, rq->curr and
rq->nr_running are in separate cachelines. The rq->curr variable is
checked first followed by nr_running. As nr_running is also accessed
by update_sg_lb_stats() earlier, it makes no sense to load another
cacheline when nr_running is not 0 as idle_cpu() will always return
false in this case.

This patch eliminates this redundant cacheline load by checking the
cached nr_running before calling idle_cpu().

ed82b8a1ff sched/core: Move the sched_to_prio[] arrays out of line
When building a kernel with a gcc 6 snapshot the compiler complains
about unused const static variables for prio_to_weight and prio_to_mult
for multiple scheduler files (all but core.c and autogroup.c)

The way the array is currently declared it will be duplicated in
every scheduler file that includes sched.h, which seems rather wasteful.

Move the array out of line into core.c. I also added a sched_ prefix
to avoid any potential name space collisions.

e592539466 sched/cputime: Introduce vtime accounting check for readers
Readers need to know if vtime runs at all on some CPU somewhere, this
is a fast-path check to determine if we need to check further the need
to add up any tickless cputime delta.

This fast path check uses context tracking state because vtime is tied
to context tracking as of now. This check appears to be confusing though
so lets use a vtime function that deals with context tracking details
in vtime implementation instead.

cab245d68c sched/cputime: Correctly handle task guest time on housekeepers
When a task runs on a housekeeper (a CPU running with the periodic tick
with neighbours running tickless), it doesn't account cputime using vtime
but relies on the tick. Such a task has its vtime_snap_whence value set
to VTIME_INACTIVE.

Readers won't handle that correctly though. As long as vtime is running
on some CPU, readers incorretly assume that vtime runs on all CPUs and
always compute the tickless cputime delta, which is only junk on
housekeepers.

So lets fix this with checking that the target runs on a vtime CPU through
the appropriate state check before computing the tickless delta.

ad936d8658 sched/fair: Make it possible to account fair load avg consistently
The current code accounts for the time a task was absent from the fair
class (per ATTACH_AGE_LOAD). However it does not work correctly when a
task got migrated or moved to another cgroup while outside of the fair
class.

This patch tries to address that by aging on migration. We locklessly
read the 'last_update_time' stamp from both the old and new cfs_rq,
ages the load upto the old time, and sets it to the new time.

These timestamps should in general not be more than 1 tick apart from
one another, so there is a definite bound on things.

that we'll prematurely continue with the wakeup and effectively run p on

2541117b0c sched/cputime: Fix invalid gtime in proc
/proc/stats shows invalid gtime when the thread is running in guest.
When vtime accounting is not enabled, we cannot get a valid delta.
The delta is calculated with now - tsk->vtime_snap, but tsk->vtime_snap
is only updated when vtime accounting is runtime enabled.

This patch makes task_gtime() just return gtime without computing the
buggy non-existing tickless delta when vtime accounting is not enabled.

Use context_tracking_is_enabled() to check if vtime is accounting on
some cpu, in which case only we need to check the tickless delta. This
way we fix the gtime value regression on machines not running nohz full.

The kernel config contains CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN=y and
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=n and boot without nohz_full.

I ran and stop a busy loop in VM and see the gtime in host.
Dump the 43rd field which shows the gtime in every second:

	 # while :; do awk '{print $3" "$43}' /proc/3955/task/4014/stat; sleep 1; done
	S 4348
	R 7064566
	R 7064766
	R 7064967
	R 7065168
	S 4759
	S 4759

During running busy loop, it returns large value.

After applying this patch, we can see right gtime.

8295c69925 sched/core: Clear the root_domain cpumasks in init_rootdomain()
root_domain::rto_mask allocated through alloc_cpumask_var()
contains garbage data, this may cause problems. For instance,
When doing pull_rt_task(), it may do useless iterations if
rto_mask retains some extra garbage bits. Worse still, this
violates the isolated domain rule for clustered scheduling
using cpuset, because the tasks(with all the cpus allowed)
belongs to one root domain can be pulled away into another
root domain.

The patch cleans the garbage by using zalloc_cpumask_var()
instead of alloc_cpumask_var() for root_domain::rto_mask
allocation, thereby addressing the issues.

Do the same thing for root_domain's other cpumask memembers:
dlo_mask, span, and online.

1f7dd3e5a6 cgroup: fix handling of multi-destination migration from subtree_control enabling
Consider the following v2 hierarchy.

  P0 (+memory) --- P1 (-memory) --- A
                                 \- B
       
P0 has memory enabled in its subtree_control while P1 doesn't.  If
both A and B contain processes, they would belong to the memory css of
P1.  Now if memory is enabled on P1's subtree_control, memory csses
should be created on both A and B and A's processes should be moved to
the former and B's processes the latter.  IOW, enabling controllers
can cause atomic migrations into different csses.

The core cgroup migration logic has been updated accordingly but the
controller migration methods haven't and still assume that all tasks
migrate to a single target css; furthermore, the methods were fed the
css in which subtree_control was updated which is the parent of the
target csses.  pids controller depends on the migration methods to
move charges and this made the controller attribute charges to the
wrong csses often triggering the following warning by driving a
counter negative.

This patch fixes the bug by removing @css parameter from the three
migration methods, ->can_attach, ->cancel_attach() and ->attach() and
updating cgroup_taskset iteration helpers also return the destination
css in addition to the task being migrated.  All controllers are
updated accordingly.

* Controllers which don't care whether there are one or multiple
  target csses can be converted trivially.  cpu, io, freezer, perf,
  netclassid and netprio fall in this category.

* cpuset's current implementation assumes that there's single source
  and destination and thus doesn't support v2 hierarchy already.  The
  only change made by this patchset is how that single destination css
  is obtained.

* memory migration path already doesn't do anything on v2.  How the
  single destination css is obtained is updated and the prep stage of
  mem_cgroup_can_attach() is reordered to accomodate the change.

* pids is the only controller which was affected by this bug.  It now
  correctly handles multi-destination migrations and no longer causes
  counter underflow from incorrect accounting.

3ea94de15c sched/core: Fix incorrect wait time and wait count statistics
At present scheduler resets task's wait start timestamp when the task
migrates to another rq.  This misleads scheduler itself into reporting
less wait time than actual by omitting time spent for waiting prior to
migration and also more wait count than actual by counting migration as
wait end event which can be seen by trace or /proc/<pid>/sched with
CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS=y.

Carry forward migrating task's wait time prior to migration and
don't count migration as a wait end event to fix such statistics error.

In order to determine whether task is migrating mark task->on_rq with
TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING while dequeuing and enqueuing due to migration.

51170840fe sched/numa: Cap PTE scanning overhead to 3% of run time
There is a fundamental mismatch between the runtime based NUMA scanning
at the task level, and the wall clock time NUMA scanning at the mm level.
On a severely overloaded system, with very large processes, this mismatch
can cause the system to spend all of its time in change_prot_numa().

This can happen if the task spends at least two ticks in change_prot_numa(),
and only gets two ticks of CPU time in the real time between two scan
intervals of the mm.

This patch ensures that a task never spends more than 3% of run
time scanning PTEs. It does that by ensuring that in-between
task_numa_work() runs, the task spends at least 32x as much time on
other things than it did on task_numa_work().

This is done stochastically: if a timer tick happens, or the task
gets rescheduled during task_numa_work(), we delay a future run of
task_numa_work() until the task has spent at least 32x the amount of
CPU time doing something else, as it spent inside task_numa_work().
The longer task_numa_work() takes, the more likely it is this happens.

If task_numa_work() takes very little time, chances are low that that
code will do anything, but we will not care.

5954327548 sched/fair: Prepare __update_cpu_load() to handle active tickless
There are some cases where distance between ticks is more than one tick
while the CPU is not idle, e.g. full NOHZ.

However __update_cpu_load() assumes it is the idle tickless case if the
distance between ticks is more than 1, even though it can be the active
tickless case as well. Thus in the active tickless case, updating the CPU
load will not be performed correctly.

Where the current code assumes the load for each tick is zero, this is
(obviously) not true in non-idle tickless case. We can approximately
consider the load ~= this_rq->cpu_load[0] during tickless in non-idle
tickless case.

89b411081d sched/rt: Hide the push_irq_work_func() declaration
The push_irq_work_func() function is conditionally defined only
when both CONFIG_SMP and HAVE_RT_PUSH_IPI are defined, but the
forward declaration remains visibile without HAVE_RT_PUSH_IPI,
causing a gcc warning in ARM64 allnoconfig:

  kernel/sched/rt.c:68:13: warning: 'push_irq_work_func' declared 'static' but never defined [-Wunused-function]

This changes the code to use the same condition for both the
declaration and the function definition, which gets rid of the
warning.

As Peter Zijlstra, we can possibly get rid of the whole HAVE_RT_PUSH_IPI
thing after:

  8053871d0f ("smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async() locking")

Until that is done, this patch can be used to avoid the warning.

The NUMA balancing code implements delays in scanning by
advancing curr->node_stamp beyond curr->se.sum_exec_runtime.

With unsigned math, that creates an underflow, which results
in task_numa_work being queued all the time, even when we
don't want to.

Avoiding the math underflow makes it possible to reduce CPU
overhead in the NUMA balancing code.

933425fb00 s390: A bunch of fixes and optimizations for interrupt and time
handling.
 
 PPC: Mostly bug fixes.
 
 ARM: No big features, but many small fixes and prerequisites including:
 - a number of fixes for the arch-timer
 - introducing proper level-triggered semantics for the arch-timers
 - a series of patches to synchronously halt a guest (prerequisite for
   IRQ forwarding)
 - some tracepoint improvements
 - a tweak for the EL2 panic handlers
 - some more VGIC cleanups getting rid of redundant state
 
 x86: quite a few changes:
 
 - support for VT-d posted interrupts (i.e. PCI devices can inject
 interrupts directly into vCPUs).  This introduces a new component (in
 virt/lib/) that connects VFIO and KVM together.  The same infrastructure
 will be used for ARM interrupt forwarding as well.
 
 - more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic interrupt
 controller will have to wait for 4.5.  These will let KVM expose Hyper-V
 devices.
 
 - nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for vCPUs)
 which makes it quite a bit faster
 
 - for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for clflushopt,
 clwb, pcommit
 
 - support for "split irqchip", i.e. LAPIC in kernel + IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in
 userspace, which reduces the attack surface of the hypervisor
 
 - obligatory smattering of SMM fixes
 
 - on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten to not
 require help from the hypervisor.

 "The cgroup core saw several significant updates this cycle:

     temporarily dropped due to down_write latency issues.  Oleg's
     rework of percpu_rwsem which is scheduled to be merged in this
     merge window resolves the issue.

   - On the v2 hierarchy, when controllers are enabled and disabled, all
     operations are atomic and can fail and revert cleanly.  This allows
     ->can_attach() failure which is necessary for cpu RT slices.

   - Tasks now stay associated with the original cgroups after exit
     until released.  This allows tracking resources held by zombies
     (e.g.  pids) and makes it easy to find out where zombies came from
     on the v2 hierarchy.  The pids controller was broken before these
     changes as zombies escaped the limits; unfortunately, updating this
     behavior required too many invasive changes and I don't think it's
     a good idea to backport them, so the pids controller on 4.3, the
     first version which included the pids controller, will stay broken

Ensure the stopper thread is active 'early', because the load balancer
pretty much assumes that its available. And when 'online && active' the
load-balancer is fully available.

Not only the numa balancing stop_two_cpus() caller relies on it, but
also the self migration stuff does, and at CPU_ONLINE time the cpu
really is 'free' to run anything.

5aa5050787 sched/deadline: Fix migration of SCHED_DEADLINE tasks
Commit:

  9d51426242 ("sched/deadline: Reduce rq lock contention by eliminating locking of non-feasible target")

broke select_task_rq_dl() and find_lock_later_rq(), because it introduced
a comparison between the local task's deadline and dl.earliest_dl.curr of
the remote queue.

However, if the remote runqueue does not contain any SCHED_DEADLINE
task its earliest_dl.curr is 0 (always smaller than the deadline of
the local task) and the remote runqueue is not selected for pushing.

As a result, if an application creates multiple SCHED_DEADLINE
threads, they will never be pushed to runqueues that do not already
contain SCHED_DEADLINE tasks.

This patch fixes the issue by checking if dl.dl_nr_running == 0.

0baabb385e nohz: Revert "nohz: Set isolcpus when nohz_full is set"
This reverts:

  8cb9764fc8 ("nohz: Set isolcpus when nohz_full is set")

We assumed that full-nohz users always want scheduler isolation on full
dynticks CPUs, therefore we included full-nohz CPUs on cpu_isolated_map.

This means that tasks run by default on CPUs outside the nohz_full range
unless their affinity is explicity overwritten.

This suits pure isolation workloads but when the machine is needed to
run common workloads, the available sets of CPUs to run common tasks
becomes reduced.

We reach an extreme case when CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL is enabled as it
leaves only CPU 0 for non-isolation tasks, which makes people think that
their supercomputer regressed to 90's UP - which is true in a sense.

Some full-nohz users appear to be interested in running normal workloads
either before or after an isolation workload. Full-nohz isn't optimized
toward normal workloads but it's still better than UP performance.

We are reaching a limitation in kernel presets here. Lets revert this
cpu_isolated_map inclusion and let userspace do its own scheduler
isolation using cpusets or explicit affinity settings.

3e386d56ba sched/fair: Update task group's load_avg after task migration
When cfs_rq has cfs_rq->removed_load_avg set (when a task migrates from
this cfs_rq), we need to update its contribution to the group's load_avg.

This should not increase tg's update too much, because in most cases, the
cfs_rq has already decayed its load_avg.

fde7d22e01 sched/fair: Fix overly small weight for interactive group entities
Commit:

  9d89c257df ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")

led to an overly small weight for interactive group entities. The bad case
can be easily reproduced when a number of CPU hogs compete for the CPUs
at the same time (thanks to Mike). This is largly because the task group's
load average tracking cross CPUs lags behind the real changes.

To fix this we accelerate the group share distribution process by using
the load.weight of the cfs_rq. This may increase the entire group's
share, but we have to do so to protect the (fragile) interactive
tasks, especially from CPU hogs.

2e91fa7f6d cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups
cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the
exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup.
This is unnecessary and undesirable.

No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with
non-root cgroups.  Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the
association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep
consistent with the cgroup core behavior.

Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held
by zombies or determine where the zombies came from.  Currently, pids
controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies
always escape the resource restriction.  With cgroup association being
reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful.

There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit.  The zombie can
be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on
"cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup
removal.  It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup
membership is maintained.  This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies
associated with their cgroups at the time of exit.

* Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set
  lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set
  while pinning and pointing to the css_set.  This keeps css_set
  association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs"
  and populated_cnt tracking.  The css_set reference is dropped when
  the task_struct is freed.

* ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the
  associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set.  Removed.

* cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks.
  There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit.  The final
  schedule out is enough.  The callbacks are removed.

* On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes.  "/proc/PID/cgroup"
  still reports "/" for all zombies.  On the default hierarchy,
  "/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged
  to at the time of exit.  If the cgroup gets removed before the task
  is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended.

v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when
    !CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

9babcd7929 sched, tracing: Stop/start critical timings around the idle=poll idle loop
When using idle=poll, the preemptoff tracer is always showing
the idle task as the culprit for long latencies. That happens
because critical timings are not stopped before idle loop. This
patch stops critical timings before entering the idle loop,
starting it again after the idle loop.

This problem does not affect the irqsoff tracer because
interruptions are enabled before entering the idle loop.

84778472e1 sched: Export sched_setscheduler_nocheck
The new locktorture rtmutex_lock tests exercise priority boosting, which
means that they need to set some tasks to real-time priority.  To do this,
they use sched_setscheduler_nocheck().  However, this is not exported to
modules, which results in the following error when building locktorture
as a module:

ERROR: "sched_setscheduler_nocheck" [kernel/locking/locktorture.ko] undefined!

This commit therefore adds an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() to allow this function
to be invoked from locktorture when built as a module.

ce03e4137b sched/core: Drop unlikely behind BUG_ON()
(1) For !CONFIG_BUG cases, the bug call is a no-op, so we couldn't care
    less and the change is ok.

(2) PPC and MIPS, which HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON, do not rely on branch predictions
    as it seems to be pointless [1] and thus callers should not be trying to
    push an optimization in the first place.

(3) For CONFIG_BUG and !HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON cases, BUG_ON() contains an
    unlikely compiler flag already.

Hence, we can drop unlikely behind BUG_ON().

This alternative patch solves the problem by not calling
sched_info_{de,}queued() in {de,en}queue_task(). Therefore the
sched_info state is preserved and things work as expected.

By inlining the {de,en}queue_task() functions the new condition
becomes (mostly) a compile-time constant and we'll not emit any new
branch instructions.

It even shrinks the code (due to inlining {en,de}queue_task()):

b52da86e0a sched/numa: Fix task_tick_fair() from disabling numa_balancing
If static branch 'sched_numa_balancing' is enabled, it should kickstart
NUMA balancing through task_tick_numa(). However the following commit:

  2a595721a1 ("sched/numa: Convert sched_numa_balancing to a static_branch")

erroneously disables this.

Fix this anomaly by enabling task_tick_numa() when the static branch
'sched_numa_balancing' is enabled.

499d79559f sched/core: More notrace annotations
preempt_schedule_common() is marked notrace, but it does not use
_notrace() preempt_count functions and __schedule() is also not marked
notrace, which means that its perfectly possible to end up in the
tracer from preempt_schedule_common().

Steve says:

  | Yep, there's some history to this. This was originally the issue that
  | caused function tracing to go into infinite recursion. But now we have
  | preempt_schedule_notrace(), which is used by the function tracer, and
  | that function must not be traced till preemption is disabled.
  |
  | Now if function tracing is running and we take an interrupt when
  | NEED_RESCHED is set, it calls
  |
  |   preempt_schedule_common() (not traced)
  |
  | But then that calls preempt_disable() (traced)
  |
  | function tracer calls preempt_disable_notrace() followed by
  | preempt_enable_notrace() which will see NEED_RESCHED set, and it will
  | call preempt_schedule_notrace(), which stops the recursion, but
  | still calls __schedule() here, and that means when we return, we call
  | the __schedule() from preempt_schedule_common().
  |
  | That said, I prefer this patch. Preemption is disabled before calling
  | __schedule(), and we get rid of a one round recursion with the
  | scheduler.
