4c6c4e38c4 sched/core: Fix endless loop in pick_next_task()
1) Single cpu machine case.

When rq has only RT tasks, but no one of them can be picked
because of throttling, we enter in endless loop.

pick_next_task_{dl,rt} return NULL.

In pick_next_task_fair() we permanently go to retry

	if (rq->nr_running != rq->cfs.h_nr_running)
		return RETRY_TASK;

(rq->nr_running is not being decremented when rt_rq becomes
throttled).

No chances to unthrottle any rt_rq or to wake fair here,
because of rq is locked permanently and interrupts are
disabled.

2) In case of SMP this can cause a hang too. Although we unlock
   rq in idle_balance(), interrupts are still disabled.

The solution is to check for available tasks in DL and RT
classes instead of checking for sum.

734ff2a71f sched/rt: Fix picking RT and DL tasks from empty queue
The problems:

1) We check for rt_nr_running before call of put_prev_task().
   If previous task is RT, its rt_rq may become throttled
   and dequeued after this call.

In case of p is from rt->rq this just causes picking a task
from throttled queue, but in case of its rt_rq is child
we are guaranteed catch BUG_ON.

2) The same with deadline class. The only difference we operate
   on only dl_rq.

This patch fixes all the above problems and it adds a small skip in the
DL update like we've already done for RT class:

	if (unlikely((s64)delta_exec <= 0))
		return;

This will optimize sequential update_curr_dl() calls a little.

96b3d28bf4 sched/clock: Prevent tracing recursion in sched_clock_cpu()
Prevent tracing of preempt_disable/enable() in sched_clock_cpu().
When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled, preempt_disable/enable() are
traced and this causes trace_clock() users (and probably others) to
go into an infinite recursion. Systems with a stable sched_clock()
are not affected.

This problem is similar to that fixed by upstream commit 95ef1e5292
("KVM guest: prevent tracing recursion with kvmclock").

177c53d943 stop_machine: Fix^2 race between stop_two_cpus() and stop_cpus()
We must use smp_call_function_single(.wait=1) for the
irq_cpu_stop_queue_work() to ensure the queueing is actually done under
stop_cpus_lock. Without this we could have dropped the lock by the time
we do the queueing and get the race we tried to fix.

e97ca8e5b8 mm: fix GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify
GFP_THISNODE is for callers that implement their own clever fallback to
remote nodes.  It restricts the allocation to the specified node and
does not invoke reclaim, assuming that the caller will take care of it
when the fallback fails, e.g.  through a subsequent allocation request
without GFP_THISNODE set.

However, many current GFP_THISNODE users only want the node exclusive
aspect of the flag, without actually implementing their own fallback or
triggering reclaim if necessary.  This results in things like page
migration failing prematurely even when there is easily reclaimable
memory available, unless kswapd happens to be running already or a
concurrent allocation attempt triggers the necessary reclaim.

Convert all callsites that don't implement their own fallback strategy
to __GFP_THISNODE.  This restricts the allocation a single node too, but
at the same time allows the allocator to enter the slowpath, wake
kswapd, and invoke direct reclaim if necessary, to make the allocation
happen when memory is full.

721f0c1260 In the past, I've had lots of reports about trace events not working.
Developers would say they put a trace_printk() before and after the trace
 event but when they enable it (and the trace event said it was enabled) they
 would see the trace_printks but not the trace event.
 
 I was not able to reproduce this, but that's because I wasn't looking at
 the right location. Recently, another bug came up that showed the issue.
 
 If your kernel supports signed modules but allows for non-signed modules
 to be loaded, then when one is, the kernel will silently set the
 MODULE_FORCED taint on the module. Although, this taint happens without
 the need for insmod --force or anything of the kind, it labels the
 module with that taint anyway.
 
 If this tainted module has tracepoints, the tracepoints will be ignored
 because of the MODULE_FORCED taint. But no error message will be
 displayed. Worse yet, the event infrastructure will still be created
 letting users enable the trace event represented by the tracepoint,
 although that event will never actually be enabled. This is because
 the tracepoint infrastructure allows for non-existing tracepoints to
 be enabled for new modules to arrive and have their tracepoints set.
 
 Although there are several things wrong with the above, this change
 only addresses the creation of the trace event files for tracepoints
 that are not created when a module is loaded and is tainted. This change
 will print an error message about the module being tainted and not the
 trace events will not be created, and it does not create the trace event
 infrastructure.

45ab2813d4 tracing: Do not add event files for modules that fail tracepoints
If a module fails to add its tracepoints due to module tainting, do not
create the module event infrastructure in the debugfs directory. As the events
will not work and worse yet, they will silently fail, making the user wonder
why the events they enable do not display anything.

Having a warning on module load and the events not visible to the users
will make the cause of the problem much clearer.

37e117c07b sched: Guarantee task priority in pick_next_task()
Michael spotted that the idle_balance() push down created a task
priority problem.

Previously, when we called idle_balance() before pick_next_task() it
wasn't a problem when -- because of the rq->lock droppage -- an rt/dl
task slipped in.

Similarly for pre_schedule(), rt pre-schedule could have a dl task
slip in.

But by pulling it into the pick_next_task() loop, we'll not try a
higher task priority again.

Cure this by creating a re-start condition in pick_next_task(); and
triggering this from pick_next_task_{rt,fair}().

It also fixes a live-lock where we get stuck in pick_next_task_fair()
due to idle_balance() seeing !0 nr_running but there not actually
being any fair tasks about.

f5f9739d7a sched: Put rq's sched_avg under CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED
The struct sched_avg of struct rq is only used in case group
scheduling is enabled inside __update_tg_runnable_avg() to update
per-cpu representation of a task group.  I.e. that there is no need to
maintain the runnable avg of a rq in the !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED case.

This patch guards struct sched_avg of struct rq and
update_rq_runnable_avg() with CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.

There is an extra empty definition for update_rq_runnable_avg()
necessary for the !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED && CONFIG_SMP case.

The function print_cfs_group_stats() which prints out struct sched_avg
of struct rq is already guarded with CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.

e3703f8cdf perf: Fix hotplug splat
Drew Richardson reported that he could make the kernel go *boom* when hotplugging
while having perf events active.

It turned out that when you have a group event, the code in
__perf_event_exit_context() fails to remove the group siblings from
the context.

We then proceed with destroying and freeing the event, and when you
re-plug the CPU and try and add another event to that CPU, things go
*boom* because you've still got dead entries there.

faa5993736 sched/deadline: Prevent rt_time growth to infinity
Kirill Tkhai noted:

  Since deadline tasks share rt bandwidth, we must care about
  bandwidth timer set. Otherwise rt_time may grow up to infinity
  in update_curr_dl(), if there are no other available RT tasks
  on top level bandwidth.

RT task were in fact throttled right after they got enqueued,
and never executed again (rt_time never again went below rt_runtime).

Peter then proposed to accrue DL execution on rt_time only when
rt timer is active, and proposed a patch (this patch is a slight
modification of that) to implement that behavior. While this
solves Kirill problem, it has a drawback.

Indeed, Kirill noted again:

  It looks we may get into a situation, when all CPU time is shared
  between RT and DL tasks:

  rt_runtime = n
  rt_period  = 2n

  | RT working, DL sleeping  | DL working, RT sleeping      |
  -----------------------------------------------------------
  | (1)     duration = n     | (2)     duration = n         | (repeat)
  |--------------------------|------------------------------|
  | (rt_bw timer is running) | (rt_bw timer is not running) |

  No time for fair tasks at all.

While this can happen during the first period, if rq is always backlogged,
RT tasks won't have the opportunity to execute anymore: rt_time reached
rt_runtime during (1), suppose after (2) RT is enqueued back, it gets
throttled since rt timer didn't fire, replenishment is from now on eaten up
by DL tasks that accrue their execution on rt_time (while rt timer is
active - we have an RT task waiting for replenishment). FAIR tasks are
not touched after this first period. Ok, this is not ideal, and the situation
is even worse!

What above (the nice case), practically never happens in reality, where
your rt timer is not aligned to tasks periods, tasks are in general not
periodic, etc.. Long story short, you always risk to overload your system.

This patch is based on Peter's idea, but exploits an additional fact:
if you don't have RT tasks enqueued, it makes little sense to continue
incrementing rt_time once you reached the upper limit (DL tasks have their
own mechanism for throttling).

This cures both problems:

 - no matter how many DL instances in the past, you'll have an rt_time
   slightly above rt_runtime when an RT task is enqueued, and from that
   point on (after the first replenishment), the task will normally execute;

 - you can still eat up all bandwidth during the first period, but not
   anymore after that, remember that DL execution will increment rt_time
   till the upper limit is reached.

The situation is still not perfect! But, we have a simple solution for now,
that limits how much you can jeopardize your system, as we keep working
towards the right answer: RT groups scheduled using deadline servers.

eec751ed41 sched/deadline: Switch CPU's presence test order
Commit 82b9580 ("sched/deadline: Test for CPU's presence explicitly")
changed how we check if a CPU returned by cpudeadline machinery is
valid. But, we don't want to call cpu_present() if best_cpu is
equal to -1. So, switch the order of tests inside WARN_ON().

791c9e0292 sched: Fix double normalization of vruntime
dequeue_entity() is called when p->on_rq and sets se->on_rq = 0
which appears to guarentee that the !se->on_rq condition is met.
If the task has done set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) without
schedule() the second condition will be met and vruntime will be
incorrectly adjusted twice.

In certain cases this can result in the task's vruntime never increasing
past the vruntime of other tasks on the CFS' run queue, starving them of
CPU time.

This patch changes switched_from_fair() to use !p->on_rq instead of
!se->on_rq.

I'm able to cause a task with a priority of 120 to starve all other
tasks with the same priority on an ARM platform running 3.2.51-rt72
PREEMPT RT by writing one character at time to a serial tty (16550 UART)
in a tight loop. I'm also able to verify making this change corrects the
problem on that platform and kernel version.

c685689fd2 genirq: Remove racy waitqueue_active check
We hit one rare case below:

T1 calling disable_irq(), but hanging at synchronize_irq()
always;
The corresponding irq thread is in sleeping state;
And all CPUs are in idle state;

After analysis, we found there is one possible scenerio which
causes T1 is waiting there forever:
CPU0                                       CPU1
 synchronize_irq()
  wait_event()
    spin_lock()
                                           atomic_dec_and_test(&threads_active)
      insert the __wait into queue
    spin_unlock()
                                           if(waitqueue_active)
    atomic_read(&threads_active)
                                             wake_up()

Here after inserted the __wait into queue on CPU0, and before
test if queue is empty on CPU1, there is no barrier, it maybe
cause it is not visible for CPU1 immediately, although CPU0 has
updated the queue list.
It is similar for CPU0 atomic_read() threads_active also.

So we'd need one smp_mb() before waitqueue_active.that, but removing
the waitqueue_active() check solves it as wel l and it makes
things simple and clear.

c365c292d0 sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()
If a PI boosted task policy/priority is modified by a setscheduler()
call we unconditionally dequeue and requeue the task if it is on the
runqueue even if the new priority is lower than the current effective
boosted priority. This can result in undesired reordering of the
priority bucket list.

If the new priority is less or equal than the current effective we
just store the new parameters in the task struct and leave the
scheduler class and the runqueue untouched. This is handled when the
task deboosts itself. Only if the new priority is higher than the
effective boosted priority we apply the change immediately.

81a44c5441 sched: Queue RT tasks to head when prio drops
The following scenario does not work correctly:

Runqueue of CPUx contains two runnable and pinned tasks:

 T1: SCHED_FIFO, prio 80
 T2: SCHED_FIFO, prio 80

T1 is on the cpu and executes the following syscalls (classic priority
ceiling scenario):

 sys_sched_setscheduler(pid(T1), SCHED_FIFO, .prio = 90);
 ...
 sys_sched_setscheduler(pid(T1), SCHED_FIFO, .prio = 80);
 ...

Now T1 gets preempted by T3 (SCHED_FIFO, prio 95). After T3 goes back
to sleep the scheduler picks T2. Surprise!

The same happens w/o actual preemption when T1 is forced into the
scheduler due to a sporadic NEED_RESCHED event. The scheduler invokes
pick_next_task() which returns T2. So T1 gets preempted and scheduled
out.

This happens because sched_setscheduler() dequeues T1 from the prio 90
list and then enqueues it on the tail of the prio 80 list behind T2.
This violates the POSIX spec and surprises user space which relies on
the guarantee that SCHED_FIFO tasks are not scheduled out unless they
give the CPU up voluntarily or are preempted by a higher priority
task. In the latter case the preempted task must get back on the CPU
after the preempting task schedules out again.

We fixed a similar issue already in commit 60db48c (sched: Queue a
deboosted task to the head of the RT prio queue). The same treatment
is necessary for sched_setscheduler(). So enqueue to head of the prio
bucket list if the priority of the task is lowered.

It might be possible that existing user space relies on the current
behaviour, but it can be considered highly unlikely due to the corner
case nature of the application scenario.

77177856e3 sched: Init idle->on_rq in init_idle()
We stumbled in RT over a SMP bringup issue on ARM where the
idle->on_rq == 0 was causing try_to_wakeup() on the other cpu to run
into nada land.

After adding that idle->on_rq = 1; I was able to find the root cause
of the lockup: the idle task on the newly woken up cpu was fiddling
with a sleeping spinlock, which is a nono.

I kept the init of idle->on_rq to keep the state consistent and to
avoid another long lasting debug session.

As a side note, the whole debug mess could have been avoided if
might_sleep() would have yelled when called from the idle task. That's
fixed with patch 2/6 - and that one actually has a changelog :)

3f1d2a3181 sched: Fix hotplug task migration
Dan Carpenter reported:

> kernel/sched/rt.c:1347 pick_next_task_rt() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'prev' (see line 1338)
> kernel/sched/deadline.c:1011 pick_next_task_dl() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'prev' (see line 1005)

Kirill also spotted that migrate_tasks() will have an instant NULL
deref because pick_next_task() will immediately deref prev.

Instead of fixing all the corner cases because migrate_tasks() can
pass in a NULL prev task in the unlikely case of hot-un-plug, provide
a fake task such that we can remove all the NULL checks from the far
more common paths.

A further problem; not previously spotted; is that because we pushed
pre_schedule() and idle_balance() into pick_next_task() we now need to
avoid those getting called and pulling more tasks on our dying CPU.

We avoid pull_{dl,rt}_task() by setting fake_task.prio to MAX_PRIO+1.
We also note that since we call pick_next_task() exactly the amount of
times we have runnable tasks present, we should never land in
idle_balance().
