2013-01-25sched/debug: Fix format string for 32-bit platformsArnd Bergmann1-2/+2
The type returned from atomic64_t can be either unsigned long or unsigned long long, depending on the architecture. Using a cast to unsigned long long lets us use the same format string for all architectures. Without this patch, building with scheduler debugging enabled results in: kernel/sched/debug.c: In function 'print_cfs_rq': kernel/sched/debug.c:225:2: warning: format '%ld' expects argument of type 'long int', but argument 4 has type 'long long int' [-Wformat] kernel/sched/debug.c:225:2: warning: format '%ld' expects argument of type 'long int', but argument 3 has type 'long long int' [-Wformat] Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: linux-arm-kernel@list.infradead.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1359123276-15833-7-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2013-01-24sched: remove redundant NULL cgroup check in task_group_path()Li Zefan1-7/+0
A task_group won't be online (thus no one can see it) until cpu_cgroup_css_online(), and at that time tg->css.cgroup has been initialized, so this NULL check is redundant. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2012-10-24sched: Normalize tg load contributions against runnable timePaul Turner1-0/+4
Entities of equal weight should receive equitable distribution of cpu time. This is challenging in the case of a task_group's shares as execution may be occurring on multiple cpus simultaneously. To handle this we divide up the shares into weights proportionate with the load on each cfs_rq. This does not however, account for the fact that the sum of the parts may be less than one cpu and so we need to normalize: load(tg) = min(runnable_avg(tg), 1) * tg->shares Where runnable_avg is the aggregate time in which the task_group had runnable children.

2012-10-24sched: Maintain the load contribution of blocked entitiesPaul Turner1-0/+3
We are currently maintaining: runnable_load(cfs_rq) = \Sum task_load(t) For all running children t of cfs_rq. While this can be naturally updated for tasks in a runnable state (as they are scheduled); this does not account for the load contributed by blocked task entities. This can be solved by introducing a separate accounting for blocked load: blocked_load(cfs_rq) = \Sum runnable(b) * weight(b) Obviously we do not want to iterate over all blocked entities to account for their decay, we instead observe that: runnable_load(t) = \Sum p_i*y^i and that to account for an additional idle period we only need to compute: y*runnable_load(t). This means that we can compute all blocked entities at once by evaluating: blocked_load(cfs_rq)` = y * blocked_load(cfs_rq) Finally we maintain a decay counter so that when a sleeping entity re-awakens we can determine how much of its load should be removed from the blocked sum.

2012-10-24sched: Aggregate load contributed by task entities on parenting cfs_rqPaul Turner1-0/+3
For a given task t, we can compute its contribution to load as: task_load(t) = runnable_avg(t) * weight(t) On a parenting cfs_rq we can then aggregate: runnable_load(cfs_rq) = \Sum task_load(t), for all runnable children t Maintain this bottom up, with task entities adding their contributed load to the parenting cfs_rq sum. When a task entity's load changes we add the same delta to the maintained sum.

2012-10-24sched: Track the runnable average on a per-task entity basisPaul Turner1-0/+4
Instead of tracking averaging the load parented by a cfs_rq, we can track entity load directly. With the load for a given cfs_rq then being the sum of its children. To do this we represent the historical contribution to runnable average within each trailing 1024us of execution as the coefficients of a geometric series. We can express this for a given task t as: runnable_sum(t) = \Sum u_i * y^i, runnable_avg_period(t) = \Sum 1024 * y^i load(t) = weight_t * runnable_sum(t) / runnable_avg_period(t) Where: u_i is the usage in the last i`th 1024us period (approximately 1ms) ~ms and y is chosen such that y^k = 1/2. We currently choose k to be 32 which roughly translates to about a sched period.

2012-05-14sched/debug: Fix printing large integers on 32-bit platformsPeter Zijlstra1-2/+8
Some numbers like nr_running and nr_uninterruptible are fundamentally unsigned since its impossible to have a negative amount of tasks, yet we still print them as signed to easily recognise the underflow condition. rq->nr_uninterruptible has 'special' accounting and can in fact very easily become negative on a per-cpu basis. It was noted that since the P() macro assumes things are long long and the promotion of unsigned 'int/long' to long long on 32bit doesn't sign extend we print silly large numbers instead of the easier to read signed numbers. Therefore extend the P() macro to not require the sign extention.

2012-05-09sched: Change rq->nr_running to unsigned intPeter Zijlstra1-1/+1
Since there's a PID space limit of 30bits (see futex.h:FUTEX_TID_MASK) and allocating that many tasks (assuming a lower bound of 2 pages per task) would still take 8T of memory it seems reasonable to say that unsigned int is sufficient for rq->nr_running. When we do get anywhere near that amount of tasks I suspect other things would go funny, load-balancer load computations would really need to be hoisted to 128bit etc. So save a few bytes and convert rq->nr_running and friends to unsigned int.

2012-01-27sched: Remove sched_switchRakib Mullick1-1/+0
Currently we don't utilize the sched_switch field anymore. But, simply removing sched_switch field from the middle of the sched_stat output will break tools. So, to stay compatible we hardcode it to zero and remove the field from the scheduler data structures. Update the schedstat documentation accordingly.
