2018-02-13sched/core: Fix DEBUG_SPINLOCK annotation for rq->lockPeter Zijlstra1-11/+16
Mark noticed that he had sporadic "spinlock recursion" warnings from the DEBUG_SPINLOCK code. Now rq->lock is special in that the owner changes in the middle of a context switch. It so happens that we fix up the lock.owner too late, @prev can run (remotely) the moment prev->on_cpu is cleared, this then allows @prev to again try and acquire this rq->lock and trigger this warning. So we have to switch lock.owner before clearing prev->on_cpu. Do this by moving the DEBUG_SPINLOCK annotation from after switch_to() to before switch_to() and collect all lockdep annotations there into prepare_lock_switch() to mirror the existing finish_lock_switch().

2018-02-06sched/fair: Use a recently used CPU as an idle candidate and the basis for SISMel Gorman1-0/+1
The select_idle_sibling() (SIS) rewrite in commit: 10e2f1acd010 ("sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings()") ... replaced a domain iteration with a search that broadly speaking does a wrapped walk of the scheduler domain sharing a last-level-cache. While this had a number of improvements, one consequence is that two tasks that share a waker/wakee relationship push each other around a socket. Even though two tasks may be active, all cores are evenly used. This is great from a search perspective and spreads a load across individual cores, but it has adverse consequences for cpufreq. As each CPU has relatively low utilisation, cpufreq may decide the utilisation is too low to used a higher P-state and overall computation throughput suffers. While individual cpufreq and cpuidle drivers may compensate by artifically boosting P-state (at c0) or avoiding lower C-states (during idle), it does not help if hardware-based cpufreq (e.g. HWP) is used. This patch tracks a recently used CPU based on what CPU a task was running on when it last was a waker a CPU it was recently using when a task is a wakee. During SIS, the recently used CPU is used as a target if it's still allowed by the task and is idle. The benefit may be non-obvious so consider an example of two tasks communicating back and forth. Task A may be an application doing IO where task B is a kworker or kthread like journald. Task A may issue IO, wake B and B wakes up A on completion. With the existing scheme this may look like the following (potentially different IDs if SMT is in use but similar principal applies). A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1) B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 2) A (cpu 2) wake B (wakes on cpu 3) etc. A careful reader may wonder why CPU 0 was not idle when B wakes A the first time and it's simply due to the fact that A can be rescheduled to another CPU and the pattern is that prev == target when B tries to wakeup A and the information about CPU 0 has been lost. With this patch, the pattern is more likely to be: A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1) B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 0) A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1) etc i.e. two communicating casts are more likely to use just two cores instead of all available cores sharing a LLC. The most dramatic speedup was noticed on dbench using the XFS filesystem on UMA as clients interact heavily with workqueues in that configuration. Note that a similar speedup is not observed on ext4 as the wakeup pattern is different: 4.15.0-rc9 4.15.0-rc9 waprev-v1 biasancestor-v1 Hmean 1 287.54 ( 0.00%) 817.01 ( 184.14%) Hmean 2 1268.12 ( 0.00%) 1781.24 ( 40.46%) Hmean 4 1739.68 ( 0.00%) 1594.47 ( -8.35%) Hmean 8 2464.12 ( 0.00%) 2479.56 ( 0.63%) Hmean 64 1455.57 ( 0.00%) 1434.68 ( -1.44%) The results can be less dramatic on NUMA where automatic balancing interferes with the test. It's also known that network benchmarks running on localhost also benefit quite a bit from this patch (roughly 10% on netperf RR for UDP and TCP depending on the machine). Hackbench also seens small improvements (6-11% depending on machine and thread count). The facebook schbench was also tested but in most cases showed little or no different to wakeup latencies.

2018-02-05membarrier: Provide core serializing command, *_SYNC_COREMathieu Desnoyers1-5/+13
Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim by JIT. Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before going back to user-space). They should then select ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on their architecture. Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space, or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().

2018-02-05membarrier: Document scheduler barrier requirementsMathieu Desnoyers1-11/+26
Document the membarrier requirement on having a full memory barrier in __schedule() after coming from user-space, before storing to rq->curr. It is provided by smp_mb__after_spinlock() in __schedule(). Document that membarrier requires a full barrier on transition from kernel thread to userspace thread. We currently have an implicit barrier from atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop() that ensures this. The x86 switch_mm_irqs_off() full barrier is currently provided by many cpumask update operations as well as write_cr3(). Document that write_cr3() provides this barrier.

2018-02-05powerpc, membarrier: Skip memory barrier in switch_mm()Mathieu Desnoyers1-10/+0
Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a process that has registered to use expedited private. Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences: It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the number of threads using a VM. We can use (atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1) instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has a single user, and that user only has a single thread. It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the thread group. Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than relying on thread flags. This means membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows private expedited membarrier commands to succeed. membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

2018-01-16delayacct: Account blkio completion on the correct taskJosh Snyder1-3/+3
Before commit: e33a9bba85a8 ("sched/core: move IO scheduling accounting from io_schedule_timeout() into scheduler") delayacct_blkio_end() was called after context-switching into the task which completed I/O. This resulted in double counting: the task would account a delay both waiting for I/O and for time spent in the runqueue. With e33a9bba85a8, delayacct_blkio_end() is called by try_to_wake_up(). In ttwu, we have not yet context-switched. This is more correct, in that the delay accounting ends when the I/O is complete. But delayacct_blkio_end() relies on 'get_current()', and we have not yet context-switched into the task whose I/O completed. This results in the wrong task having its delay accounting statistics updated. Instead of doing that, pass the task_struct being woken to delayacct_blkio_end(), so that it can update the statistics of the correct task.

2017-11-09sched/core: Optimize sched_feat() for !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG buildsPatrick Bellasi1-3/+6
When the kernel is compiled with !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG support, we expect that all SCHED_FEAT are turned into compile time constants being propagated to support compiler optimizations. Specifically, we expect that code blocks like this: if (sched_feat(FEATURE_NAME) [&& <other_conditions>]) { /* FEATURE CODE */ } are turned into dead-code in case FEATURE_NAME defaults to FALSE, and thus being removed by the compiler from the finale image. For this mechanism to properly work it's required for the compiler to have full access, from each translation unit, to whatever is the value defined by the sched_feat macro. This macro is defined as: #define sched_feat(x) (sysctl_sched_features & (1UL << __SCHED_FEAT_##x)) and thus, the compiler can optimize that code only if the value of sysctl_sched_features is visible within each translation unit. Since: 029632fbb ("sched: Make separate sched*.c translation units") the scheduler code has been split into separate translation units however the definition of sysctl_sched_features is part of kernel/sched/core.c while, for all the other scheduler modules, it is visible only via kernel/sched/sched.h as an: extern const_debug unsigned int sysctl_sched_features Unfortunately, an extern reference does not allow the compiler to apply constants propagation. Thus, on !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG kernel we still end up with code to load a memory reference and (eventually) doing an unconditional jump of a chunk of code. This mechanism is unavoidable when sched_features can be turned on and off at run-time. However, this is not the case for "production" kernels compiled with !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG. In this case, sysctl_sched_features is just a constant value which cannot be changed at run-time and thus memory loads and jumps can be avoided altogether. This patch fixes the case of !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG kernel by declaring a local version of the sysctl_sched_features constant for each translation unit. This will ultimately allow the compiler to perform constants propagation and dead-code pruning. Tests have been done, with !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG on a v4.14-rc8 with and without the patch, by running 30 iterations of: perf bench sched messaging --pipe --thread --group 4 --loop 50000 on a 40 cores Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz using the powersave governor to rule out variations due to frequency scaling.

The basic cpu stat is currently shown with "cpu." prefix in cgroup.stat, and the same information is duplicated in cpu.stat when cpu controller is enabled. This is ugly and not very scalable as we want to expand the coverage of stat information which is always available. This patch makes cgroup core always create "cpu.stat" file and show the basic cpu stat there and calls the cpu controller to show the extra stats when enabled. This ensures that the same information isn't presented in multiple places and makes future expansion of basic stats easier.

2017-10-09sched,rcu: Make cond_resched() provide RCU quiescent statePaul E. McKenney1-0/+1
There is some confusion as to which of cond_resched() or cond_resched_rcu_qs() should be added to long in-kernel loops. This commit therefore eliminates the decision by adding RCU quiescent states to cond_resched(). This commit also simplifies the code that used to interact with cond_resched_rcu_qs(), and that now interacts with cond_resched(), to reduce its overhead. This reduction is necessary to allow the heavier-weight cond_resched_rcu_qs() mechanism to be invoked everywhere that cond_resched() is invoked. Part of that reduction in overhead converts the jiffies_till_sched_qs kernel parameter to read-only at runtime, thus eliminating the need for bounds checking.

2017-10-09sched: Make resched_cpu() unconditionalPaul E. McKenney1-2/+1
The current implementation of synchronize_sched_expedited() incorrectly assumes that resched_cpu() is unconditional, which it is not. This means that synchronize_sched_expedited() can hang when resched_cpu()'s trylock fails as follows (analysis by Neeraj Upadhyay): o CPU1 is waiting for expedited wait to complete: sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus rdp->exp_dynticks_snap & 0x1 // returns 1 for CPU5 IPI sent to CPU5 synchronize_sched_expedited_wait ret = swait_event_timeout(rsp->expedited_wq, sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done(rnp_root), jiffies_stall); expmask = 0x20, CPU 5 in idle path (in cpuidle_enter()) o CPU5 handles IPI and fails to acquire rq lock. Handles IPI sync_sched_exp_handler resched_cpu returns while failing to try lock acquire rq->lock need_resched is not set o CPU5 calls rcu_idle_enter() and as need_resched is not set, goes to idle (schedule() is not called). o CPU 1 reports RCU stall. Given that resched_cpu() is now used only by RCU, this commit fixes the assumption by making resched_cpu() unconditional.

2017-09-29sched: Implement interface for cgroup unified hierarchyTejun Heo1-0/+171
There are a couple interface issues which can be addressed in cgroup2 interface. * Stats from cpuacct being reported separately from the cpu stats. * Use of different time units. Writable control knobs use microseconds, some stat fields use nanoseconds while other cpuacct stat fields use centiseconds. * Control knobs which can't be used in the root cgroup still show up in the root. * Control knob names and semantics aren't consistent with other controllers. This patchset implements cpu controller's interface on cgroup2 which adheres to the controller file conventions described in Documentation/cgroups/cgroup-v2.txt. Overall, the following changes are made. * cpuacct is implictly enabled and disabled by cpu and its information is reported through "cpu.stat" which now uses microseconds for all time durations. All time duration fields now have "_usec" appended to them for clarity. Note that cpuacct.usage_percpu is currently not included in "cpu.stat". If this information is actually called for, it will be added later. * "cpu.shares" is replaced with "cpu.weight" and operates on the standard scale defined by CGROUP_WEIGHT_MIN/DFL/MAX (1, 100, 10000). The weight is scaled to scheduler weight so that 100 maps to 1024 and the ratio relationship is preserved - if weight is W and its scaled value is S, W / 100 == S / 1024. While the mapped range is a bit smaller than the orignal scheduler weight range, the dead zones on both sides are relatively small and covers wider range than the nice value mappings. This file doesn't make sense in the root cgroup and isn't created on root. * "cpu.weight.nice" is added. When read, it reads back the nice value which is closest to the current "cpu.weight". When written, it sets "cpu.weight" to the weight value which matches the nice value. This makes it easy to configure cgroups when they're competing against threads in threaded subtrees. * "cpu.cfs_quota_us" and "cpu.cfs_period_us" are replaced by "cpu.max" which contains both quota and period. v4: - Use cgroup2 basic usage stat as the information source instead of cpuacct. v3: - Added "cpu.weight.nice" to allow using nice values when configuring the weight. The feature is requested by PeterZ. - Merge the patch to enable threaded support on cpu and cpuacct. - Dropped the bits about getting rid of cpuacct from patch description as there is a pretty strong case for making cpuacct an implicit controller so that basic cpu usage stats are always available. - Documentation updated accordingly. "cpu.rt.max" section is dropped for now. v2: - cpu_stats_show() was incorrectly using CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED for CFS bandwidth stats and also using raw division for u64. Use CONFIG_CFS_BANDWITH and do_div() instead. "cpu.rt.max" is not included yet.

On suspend cpuset_cpu_inactive() doesn't call into cpuset_update_active_cpus() because it doesn't want to move tasks about, there is no need, all tasks are frozen and won't run again until after we've resumed everything. But this means that when we finally do call into cpuset_update_active_cpus() after resuming the last frozen cpu in cpuset_cpu_active(), the top_cpuset will not have any difference with the cpu_active_mask and this it will not in fact do _anything_. So the cpuset configuration will not be restored. This was largely hidden because we would unconditionally create identity domains and mobile users would not in fact use cpusets much. And servers what do use cpusets tend to not suspend-resume much. An addition problem is that we'd not in fact wait for the cpuset work to finish before resuming the tasks, allowing spurious migrations outside of the specified domains. Fix the rebuild by introducing cpuset_force_rebuild() and fix the ordering with cpuset_wait_for_hotplug().

2017-08-17membarrier: Provide expedited private commandMathieu Desnoyers1-0/+25
Implement MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED with IPIs using cpumask built from all runqueues for which current thread's mm is the same as the thread calling sys_membarrier. It executes faster than the non-expedited variant (no blocking). It also works on NOHZ_FULL configurations. Scheduler-wise, it requires a memory barrier before and after context switching between processes (which have different mm). The memory barrier before context switch is already present. For the barrier after context switch: * Our TSO archs can do RELEASE without being a full barrier. Look at x86 spin_unlock() being a regular STORE for example. But for those archs, all atomics imply smp_mb and all of them have atomic ops in switch_mm() for mm_cpumask(), and on x86 the CR3 load acts as a full barrier. * From all weakly ordered machines, only ARM64 and PPC can do RELEASE, the rest does indeed do smp_mb(), so there the spin_unlock() is a full barrier and we're good. * ARM64 has a very heavy barrier in switch_to(), which suffices. * PPC just removed its barrier from switch_to(), but appears to be talking about adding something to switch_mm(). So add a smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() for now, until this is settled on the PPC side. Changes since v3: - Properly document the memory barriers provided by each architecture. Changes since v2: - Address comments from Peter Zijlstra, - Add smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() after finish_lock_switch() in finish_task_switch() to add the memory barrier we need after storing to rq->curr. This is much simpler than the previous approach relying on atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop(), which actually added a memory barrier in the common case of switching between userspace processes. - Return -EINVAL when MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED is used on a nohz_full kernel, rather than having the whole membarrier system call returning -ENOSYS. Indeed, CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED is compatible with nohz_full. Adapt the CMD_QUERY mask accordingly. Changes since v1: - move membarrier code under kernel/sched/ because it uses the scheduler runqueue, - only add the barrier when we switch from a kernel thread. The case where we switch from a user-space thread is already handled by the atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop(). - add a comment to mmdrop() documenting the requirement on the implicit memory barrier.

2017-08-11sched: Replace spin_unlock_wait() with lock/unlock pairPaul E. McKenney1-2/+2
There is no agreed-upon definition of spin_unlock_wait()'s semantics, and it appears that all callers could do just as well with a lock/unlock pair. This commit therefore replaces the spin_unlock_wait() call in do_task_dead() with spin_lock() followed immediately by spin_unlock(). This should be safe from a performance perspective because the lock is this tasks ->pi_lock, and this is called only after the task exits. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-08-10locking: Introduce smp_mb__after_spinlock()Peter Zijlstra1-2/+2
Since its inception, our understanding of ACQUIRE, esp. as applied to spinlocks, has changed somewhat. Also, I wonder if, with a simple change, we cannot make it provide more. The problem with the comment is that the STORE done by spin_lock isn't itself ordered by the ACQUIRE, and therefore a later LOAD can pass over it and cross with any prior STORE, rendering the default WMB insufficient (pointed out by Alan). Now, this is only really a problem on PowerPC and ARM64, both of which already defined smp_mb__before_spinlock() as a smp_mb(). At the same time, we can get a much stronger construct if we place that same barrier _inside_ the spin_lock(). In that case we upgrade the RCpc spinlock to an RCsc. That would make all schedule() calls fully transitive against one another.

2017-07-28sched: Allow migrating kthreads into online but inactive CPUsTejun Heo1-2/+7
Per-cpu workqueues have been tripping CPU affinity sanity checks while a CPU is being offlined. A per-cpu kworker ends up running on a CPU which isn't its target CPU while the CPU is online but inactive. While the scheduler allows kthreads to wake up on an online but inactive CPU, it doesn't allow a running kthread to be migrated to such a CPU, which leads to an odd situation where setting affinity on a sleeping and running kthread leads to different results. Each mem-reclaim workqueue has one rescuer which guarantees forward progress and the rescuer needs to bind itself to the CPU which needs help in making forward progress; however, due to the above issue, while set_cpus_allowed_ptr() succeeds, the rescuer doesn't end up on the correct CPU if the CPU is in the process of going offline, tripping the sanity check and executing the work item on the wrong CPU. This patch updates __migrate_task() so that kthreads can be migrated into an inactive but online CPU. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: "Paul E.
