29c0177e6a cpumask: change cpumask_scnprintf, cpumask_parse_user, cpulist_parse, and cpulist_scnprintf to take pointers.
Impact: change calling convention of existing cpumask APIs

Most cpumask functions started with cpus_: these have been replaced by
cpumask_ ones which take struct cpumask pointers as expected.

These four functions don't have good replacement names; fortunately
they're rarely used, so we just change them over.

d65bd5ecb2 sched: add missing arch_update_cpu_topology() call
arch_reinit_sched_domains() used to call arch_update_cpu_topology()
via arch_init_sched_domains(). This call got lost with
e761b77252 ("cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce
cpu_active_map and redo sched domain managment (take 2)".

So we might end up with outdated and missing cpus in the cpu core
maps (architecture used to call arch_reinit_sched_domains if cpu
topology changed).

This adds a call to arch_update_cpu_topology in partition_sched_domains
which gets called whenever scheduling domains get updated. Which is
what is supposed to happen when cpu topology changes.

9a2bd244e1 sched: CPU remove deadlock fix
Impact: fix possible deadlock in CPU hot-remove path

This patch fixes a possible deadlock scenario in the CPU remove path.
migration_call grabs rq->lock, then wakes up everything on rq->migration_queue
with the lock held. Then one of the tasks on the migration queue ends up
calling tg_shares_up which then also tries to acquire the same rq->lock.

5436499e60 sched: fix sd_parent_degenerate on non-numa smp machine
Impact: optimize the sched domains tree some more

The addition of SD_SERIALIZE flag added to SD_NODE_INIT prevented top level
dummy numa sched_domain to be properly degenerated on non-numa smp machine.
The reason is that in sd_parent_degenerate(), it found that the child and
parent does not have comon sched_domain flags due to SD_SERIALIZE.  However,
for non-numa smp box, the top level is a dummy with a single sched_group.

Filter out SD_SERIALIZE if it is on non-numa machine to properly degenerate
top level node sched_domain.  this will cut back some of the sd domain walk
in the load balancer code.

af6d596fd6 sched: prevent divide by zero error in cpu_avg_load_per_task, update

  4cd4262: sched: prevent divide by zero error in cpu_avg_load_per_task

So make sure our nr_running value is immutable and cannot change
after we check it for nonzero.

The code for cpu_avg_load_per_task has:

	if (rq->nr_running)
		rq->avg_load_per_task = rq->load.weight / rq->nr_running;

The runqueue lock is not held here, and there is nothing that prevents
the rq->nr_running from going to zero after it passes the if condition.

The branch profiler simply made the race window bigger.

This patch saves off the rq->nr_running to a local variable and uses that
for both the condition and the division.

1224e376f2 sched: avoid stack var in move_task_off_dead_cpu, fix
Impact: locking fix

We can't call cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() with the rq lock held.
However, the rq lock merely protects us from (1) cpu_online_mask changing
and (2) someone else changing p->cpus_allowed.

The first can't happen because we're being called from a cpu hotplug
notifier.  The second doesn't really matter: we are forcing the task off
a CPU it was affine to, so we're not doing very well anyway.

So we remove the rq lock from this path, and all is good.

  node_to_cpumask* -> cpumask_of_node

6c99e9ad47 sched: convert struct sched_group/sched_domain cpumask_ts to variable bitmaps
Impact: (future) size reduction for large NR_CPUS.

We move the 'cpumask' member of sched_group to the end, so when we
kmalloc it we can do a minimal allocation: saves space for small
nr_cpu_ids but big CONFIG_NR_CPUS.  Similar trick for 'span' in
sched_domain.

This isn't quite as good as converting to a cpumask_var_t, as some
sched_groups are actually static, but it's safer: we don't have to
figure out where to call alloc_cpumask_var/free_cpumask_var.

3404c8d97c sched: get rid of boutique sched.c allocations, use cpumask_var_t.
Impact: use new general API

Using lots of allocs rather than one big alloc is less efficient, but
who cares for this setup function?

abcd083a1a sched: convert sched.c from for_each_cpu_mask to for_each_cpu.
Impact: trivial API conversion

This is a simple conversion, but note that for_each_cpu() terminates
with i >= nr_cpu_ids, not i == NR_CPUS like for_each_cpu_mask() did.

I don't convert all of them: sd->span changes in a later patch, so
change those iterators there rather than here.

f201ae2356 tracing/function-return-tracer: store return stack into task_struct and allocate it dynamically
Impact: use deeper function tracing depth safely

Some tests showed that function return tracing needed a more deeper depth
of function calls. But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses
to the stack.

So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current
only when the tracer is activated.

Typical scheme when tracer is activated:
- allocate a return stack for each task in global list.
- fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task
- exit: free return stack of current
- idle init: same as fork

I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore.

957ad0166e sched: update comment for move_task_off_dead_cpu
Impact: cleanup

This commit:

commit f7b4cddcc5
Author: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>
Date:   Tue Oct 16 23:30:56 2007 -0700

    do CPU_DEAD migrating under read_lock(tasklist) instead of write_lock_irq(ta

    Currently move_task_off_dead_cpu() is called under
    write_lock_irq(tasklist).  This means it can't use task_lock() which is
    needed to improve migrating to take task's ->cpuset into account.

    Change the code to call move_task_off_dead_cpu() with irqs enabled, and
    change migrate_live_tasks() to use read_lock(tasklist).

...forgot to update the comment in front of move_task_off_dead_cpu.

ec4e0e2fe0 sched: fix inconsistency when redistribute per-cpu tg->cfs_rq shares
Impact: make load-balancing more consistent

In the update_shares() path leading to tg_shares_up(), the calculation of
per-cpu cfs_rq shares is rather erratic even under moderate task wake up
rate.  The problem is that the per-cpu tg->cfs_rq load weight used in the
sd_rq_weight aggregation and actual redistribution of the cfs_rq->shares
are collected at different time.  Under moderate system load, we've seen
quite a bit of variation on the cfs_rq->shares and ultimately wildly
affects sched_entity's load weight.

This patch caches the result of initial per-cpu load weight when doing the
sum calculation, and then pass it down to update_group_shares_cpu() for
redistributing per-cpu cfs_rq shares.  This allows consistent total cfs_rq
shares across all CPUs. It also simplifies the rounding and zero load
weight check.
