Utilization is currently scaled by capacity_orig, but since we now have
frequency and cpu invariant cfs_rq.avg.util_avg, frequency and cpu scaling
now happens as part of the utilization tracking itself.
So cfs_rq.avg.util_avg should no longer be scaled in cpu_util().

Besides the existing frequency scale-invariance correction factor, apply
CPU scale-invariance correction factor to utilization tracking to
compensate for any differences in compute capacity. This could be due to
micro-architectural differences (i.e. instructions per seconds) between
cpus in HMP systems (e.g. big.LITTLE), and/or differences in the current
maximum frequency supported by individual cpus in SMP systems. In the
existing implementation utilization isn't comparable between cpus as it
is relative to the capacity of each individual CPU.
Each segment of the sched_avg.util_sum geometric series is now scaled
by the CPU performance factor too so the sched_avg.util_avg of each
sched entity will be invariant from the particular CPU of the HMP/SMP
system on which the sched entity is scheduled.
With this patch, the utilization of a CPU stays relative to the max CPU
performance of the fastest CPU in the system.
In contrast to utilization (sched_avg.util_sum), load
(sched_avg.load_sum) should not be scaled by compute capacity. The
utilization metric is based on running time which only makes sense when
cpus are _not_ fully utilized (utilization cannot go beyond 100% even if
more tasks are added), where load is runnable time which isn't limited
by the capacity of the CPU and therefore is a better metric for
overloaded scenarios. If we run two nice-0 busy loops on two cpus with
different compute capacity their load should be similar since their
compute demands are the same. We have to assume that the compute demand
of any task running on a fully utilized CPU (no spare cycles = 100%
utilization) is high and the same no matter of the compute capacity of
its current CPU, hence we shouldn't scale load by CPU capacity.

While at it, remove the ARCH_CAPACITY sched_feature as well. With the
change to #define there isn't a straightforward way to allow runtime
switch between an arch implementation and the default implementation of
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() using sched_feature. The default was to use
the arch-specific implementation, but only the arm architecture provides
one and that is essentially equivalent to the default implementation.

Each segment of the sched_avg.load_sum geometric series is now scaled by

Since commit:
d4573c3e1c ("sched: Improve load balancing in the presence of idle CPUs")
the ILB CPU starts with the idle load balancing of other idle CPUs and
finishes with itself in order to speed up the spread of tasks in all
idle CPUs.
The this_rq->next_balance is still used in nohz_idle_balance() as an
intermediate step to gather the shortest next balance before updating
nohz.next_balance. But the former has not been updated yet and is likely to
be set with the current jiffies. As a result, the nohz.next_balance will be
set with current jiffies instead of the real next balance date. This
generates spurious kicks of nohz ilde balance.
nohz_idle_balance() must set the nohz.next_balance without taking into
account this_rq->next_balance which is not updated yet. Then, this_rq will
update nohz.next_update with its next_balance once updated and if necessary.

By observing that switched_from_fair() detaches from a runqueue, and
switched_to_fair() attaches to a runqueue, we can see that
task_move_group_fair() is one followed by the other with flipping the
runqueue in between.
Therefore extract all the common bits and implement all three
functions in terms of them.
This should fix a few corner cases wrt. vruntime normalization; where,
when we take a task off of a runqueue we convert to an approximation
of lag by subtracting min_vruntime, and when placing a task on the a
runqueue to the reverse.

Where switched_from_fair() will remove the entity's load from the
runqueue, switched_to_fair() does not currently add it back. This
means that when a task leaves the fair class for a short duration; say
because of PI; we loose its load contribution.
This can ripple forward and disturb the load tracking because other
operations (enqueue, dequeue) assume its factored in. Only once the
runqueue empties will the load tracking recover.
When we add it back in, age the per entity average to match up with
the runqueue age. This has the obvious problem that if the task leaves
the fair class for a significant time, the load will age to 0.
Employ the normal migration rule for inter-runqueue moves in
task_move_group_fair(). Again, there is the obvious problem of the
task migrating while not in the fair class.
The alternative solution would be to to omit the chunk in
attach_entity_load_avg(), which would effectively reset the timestamp
and use whatever avg there was.

The cfs_rq's load_avg is composed of runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg.
Before this series, sometimes the runnable_load_avg is used, and sometimes
the load_avg is used. Completely replacing all uses of runnable_load_avg
with load_avg may be too big a leap, i.e., the blocked_load_avg is concerned
to result in overrated load. Therefore, we get runnable_load_avg back.
The new cfs_rq's runnable_load_avg is improved to be updated with all of the
runnable sched_eneities at the same time, so the one sched_entity updated and
the others stale problem is solved.

The idea of runnable load average (let runnable time contribute to weight)
was proposed by Paul Turner and Ben Segall, and it is still followed by
this rewrite. This rewrite aims to solve the following issues:
1. cfs_rq's load average (namely runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg) is
updated at the granularity of an entity at a time, which results in the
cfs_rq's load average is stale or partially updated: at any time, only
one entity is up to date, all other entities are effectively lagging
behind. This is undesirable.
To illustrate, if we have n runnable entities in the cfs_rq, as time
elapses, they certainly become outdated:
t0: cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_old, ..., en_old }
and when we update:
t1: update e1, then we have cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_old, ..., en_old }
t2: update e2, then we have cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_new, ..., en_old }
...
We solve this by combining all runnable entities' load averages together
in cfs_rq's avg, and update the cfs_rq's avg as a whole. This is based
on the fact that if we regard the update as a function, then:
w * update(e) = update(w * e) and
update(e1) + update(e2) = update(e1 + e2), then
w1 * update(e1) + w2 * update(e2) = update(w1 * e1 + w2 * e2)
therefore, by this rewrite, we have an entirely updated cfs_rq at the
time we update it:
t1: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }
t2: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }
...
2. cfs_rq's load average is different between top rq->cfs_rq and other
task_group's per CPU cfs_rqs in whether or not blocked_load_average
contributes to the load.
The basic idea behind runnable load average (the same for utilization)
is that the blocked state is taken into account as opposed to only
accounting for the currently runnable state. Therefore, the average
should include both the runnable/running and blocked load averages.
This rewrite does that.
In addition, we also combine runnable/running and blocked averages
of all entities into the cfs_rq's average, and update it together at
once. This is based on the fact that:
update(runnable) + update(blocked) = update(runnable + blocked)
This significantly reduces the code as we don't need to separately
maintain/update runnable/running load and blocked load.
3. How task_group entities' share is calculated is complex and imprecise.
We reduce the complexity in this rewrite to allow a very simple rule:
the task_group's load_avg is aggregated from its per CPU cfs_rqs's
load_avgs. Then group entity's weight is simply proportional to its
own cfs_rq's load_avg / task_group's load_avg. To illustrate,
if a task_group has { cfs_rq1, cfs_rq2, ..., cfs_rqn }, then,
task_group_avg = cfs_rq1_avg + cfs_rq2_avg + ... + cfs_rqn_avg, then
cfs_rqx's entity's share = cfs_rqx_avg / task_group_avg * task_group's share
To sum up, this rewrite in principle is equivalent to the current one, but
fixes the issues described above. Turns out, it significantly reduces the
code complexity and hence increases clarity and efficiency. In addition,
the new averages are more smooth/continuous (no spurious spikes and valleys)
and updated more consistently and quickly to reflect the load dynamics.
As a result, we have less load tracking overhead, better performance,
and especially better power efficiency due to more balanced load.

to try very hard to wake to an idle CPU. While looking at wake_wide(),
I noticed that it doesn't pay attention to the wakeup of a many partner
waker, returning 1 only when waking one of its many partners.
Correct that, letting explicit domain flags override the heuristic.
While at it, adjust task_struct bits, we don't need a 64-bit counter.

Since commit:
4bf0b77158 ("sched: remove do_div() from __sched_slice()")
... the logic of __sched_period() can be implemented as a single if-else
without any local variables, so this patch cleans it up with an if-else
statement, which expresses the function's logic straightforwardly.

This is consistent with all other load balancing instances where we
absorb unfairness upto env->imbalance_pct. Absorbing unfairness upto
env->imbalance_pct allows to pull and retain task to their preferred

The current load balancer may not try to prevent a task from moving
out of a preferred node to a less preferred node. The reason for this
being:
- Since sched features NUMA and NUMA_RESIST_LOWER are disabled by
default, migrate_degrades_locality() always returns false.
- Even if NUMA_RESIST_LOWER were to be enabled, if its cache hot,
migrate_degrades_locality() never gets called.
The above behaviour can mean that tasks can move out of their
preferred node but they may be eventually be brought back to their
preferred node by numa balancer (due to higher numa faults).
To avoid the above, this commit merges migrate_degrades_locality() and
migrate_improves_locality(). It also replaces 3 sched features NUMA,
NUMA_FAVOUR_HIGHER and NUMA_RESIST_LOWER by a single sched feature
NUMA.

According to the comments, we need to test if this is
the first throttled task, however, list_empty() tests on
the entry cfs_rq->throttled_list, not the head, this is wrong.
This is a bug because we don't re-init the list entry after
removing it from the list, so list_empty() could return false
even if the list is really empty.

sched/numa: Fix numa balancing stats in /proc/pid/sched

sched/debug: Move print_cfs_rq() declaration to kernel/sched/sched.h
sched/stat: Expose /proc/pid/schedstat if CONFIG_SCHED_INFO=y
sched/stat: Simplify the sched_info accounting dependency
Commit 44dba3d5d6 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use
numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way
tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted.
However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed
in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched
don't match the actual numbers.
Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task
fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too.
Also couple of more modifications are added here:
1. Format changes:
- Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private
and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry.
- Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are
displayed separately.
- Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and
group faults.
2. Unit changes:
- p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of
/proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since
differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily
calculated.

Compound pages cannot be migrated and it was not expected that such pages
be marked for NUMA balancing. This did not take into account that drivers
such as net/packet/af_packet.c may insert compound pages into userspace
with vm_insert_page. This patch tells the NUMA balancing protection
scanner to skip all VM_MIXEDMAP mappings which avoids the possibility that
compound pages are marked for migration.

Changeset a43455a1d5 ("sched/numa: Ensure task_numa_migrate() checks
the preferred node") fixes an issue where workloads would never
converge on a fully loaded (or overloaded) system.
However, it introduces a regression on less than fully loaded systems,
where workloads converge on a few NUMA nodes, instead of properly
staying spread out across the whole system. This leads to a reduction
in available memory bandwidth, and usable CPU cache, with predictable
performance problems.
The root cause appears to be an interaction between the load balancer
and NUMA balancing, where the short term load represented by the load
balancer differs from the long term load the NUMA balancing code would
like to base its decisions on.
Simply reverting a43455a1d5 would re-introduce the non-convergence
of workloads on fully loaded systems, so that is not a good option. As
an aside, the check done before a43455a1d5 only applied to a task's
preferred node, not to other candidate nodes in the system, so the
converge-on-too-few-nodes problem still happens, just to a lesser
degree.
Instead, try to compensate for the impedance mismatch between the load
balancer and NUMA balancing by only ever considering a lesser loaded
node as a destination for NUMA balancing, regardless of whether the
task is trying to move to the preferred node, or to another node.
This patch also addresses the issue that a system with a single
runnable thread would never migrate that thread to near its memory,
introduced by 095bebf61a ("sched/numa: Do not move past the balance
point if unbalanced").
A test where the main thread creates a large memory area, and spawns a
worker thread to iterate over the memory (placed on another node by
select_task_rq_fair), after which the main thread goes to sleep and
waits for the worker thread to loop over all the memory now sees the
worker thread migrated to where the memory is, instead of having all
the memory migrated over like before.
Jirka has run a number of performance tests on several systems: single
instance SpecJBB 2005 performance is 7-15% higher on a 4 node system,
with higher gains on systems with more cores per socket.
Multi-instance SpecJBB 2005 (one per node), linpack, and stream see
little or no changes with the revert of 095bebf61a and this patch.

Commit 095bebf61a ("sched/numa: Do not move past the balance point
if unbalanced") broke convergence of workloads with just one runnable
thread, by making it impossible for the one runnable thread on the
system to move from one NUMA node to another.
Instead, the thread would remain where it was, and pull all the memory
across to its location, which is much slower than just migrating the
thread to where the memory is.
The next patch has a better fix for the issue that 095bebf61a tried
to address.

The optimized task selection logic optimistically selects a new task
to run without first doing a full put_prev_task(). This is so that we
can avoid a put/set on the common ancestors of the old and new task.
Similarly, we should only call check_cfs_rq_runtime() to throttle
eligible groups if they're part of the common ancestry, otherwise it
is possible to end up with no eligible task in the simple task
selection.
Imagine:
/root
/prev /next
/A /B
If our optimistic selection ends up throttling /next, we goto simple
and our put_prev_task() ends up throttling /prev, after which we're
going to bug out in set_next_entity() because there aren't any tasks
left.
Avoid this scenario by only throttling common ancestors.

It is possible for fbq_classify_rq() to indicate that a CPU has tasks that
should be moved to another NUMA node, but for migrate_improves_locality
and migrate_degrades_locality to not identify those tasks.
This patch always gives preference to preferred node evaluations, and
only checks the number of faults when evaluating moves between two
non-preferred nodes on a larger NUMA system.
On a two node system, the number of faults is never evaluated. Either
a task is about to be pulled off its preferred node, or migrated onto
it.

In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can
stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be
(re)-started when their idle condition changes.
Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do
the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns,
and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided
to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we
end up with a 'lost' timer.
The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before
the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the
callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer.
Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd
by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course,
that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time.
Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then
everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that
is undesired.
The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active
variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface
for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas.

static code checking was unhappy with:
./kernel/sched/fair.c:162 WARNING: return of wrong type
int != unsigned int
get_update_sysctl_factor() is declared to return int but is
currently returning an unsigned int. The first few preprocessed
lines are:
static int get_update_sysctl_factor(void)
{
unsigned int cpus = ({ int __min1 = (cpumask_weight(cpu_online_mask));
int __min2 = (8); __min1 < __min2 ? __min1: __min2; });
unsigned int factor;
The type used by min_t() should be 'unsigned int' and the return type
of get_update_sysctl_factor() should also be 'unsigned int' as its
call-site update_sysctl() is expecting 'unsigned int' and the values
utilizing:
'factor'
'sysctl_sched_min_granularity'
'sched_nr_latency'
'sysctl_sched_wakeup_granularity'
... are also all 'unsigned int', plus cpumask_weight() is also
returning 'unsigned int'.
So the natural type to use around here is 'unsigned int'.

I could not find the loadavg code.. turns out it was hidden in a file
called proc.c. It further got mingled up with the cruft per rq load
indexes (which we really want to get rid of).
Move the per rq load indexes into the fair.c load-balance code (that's
the only thing that uses them) and rename proc.c to loadavg.c so we
can find it again.
