2011-07-01sched: Skip autogroup when looking for all rt sched groupsYong Zhang1-5/+17
Since commit ec514c48 ("sched: Fix rt_rq runtime leakage bug") 'cat /proc/sched_debug' will print data of root_task_group.rt_rq multiple times. This is because autogroup does not have its own rt group, instead rt group of autogroup is linked to root_task_group. So skip it when we are looking for all rt sched groups, and it will also save some noop operation against root_task_group when __disable_runtime()/__enable_runtime(). -v2: Based on Cheng Xu's idea which uses less code.

2011-06-15sched: Check if lowest_mask is initialized in find_lowest_rq()Steven Rostedt1-0/+4
On system boot up, the lowest_mask is initialized with an early_initcall(). But RT tasks may wake up on other early_initcall() callers before the lowest_mask is initialized, causing a system crash. Commit "d72bce0e67 rcu: Cure load woes" was the first commit to wake up RT tasks in early init. Before this commit this bug should not happen.

This patch is to fix the real-time scheduler bug reported at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/26/13 That is, when running multiple real-time threads on every logical CPUs and then turning off one CPU, the kernel will bug at function __disable_runtime(). Function __disable_runtime() bugs and reports leakage of rt_rq runtime. The root cause is __disable_runtime() assumes it iterates through all the existing rt_rq's while walking rq->leaf_rt_rq_list, which actually contains only runnable rt_rq's. This problem also applies to __enable_runtime() and print_rt_stats(). The patch is based on above analysis, appears to fix the problem, but is only lightly tested. Reported-by: Paul E.

2011-03-04sched: Fix sched rt group scheduling when hierachy is enabledBalbir Singh1-5/+9
The current sched rt code is broken when it comes to hierarchical scheduling, this patch fixes two problems 1. It adds redundant enqueuing (harmless) when it finds a queue has tasks enqueued, but it has no run time and it is not throttled. 2. The most important change is in sched_rt_rq_enqueue/dequeue. The code just picks the rt_rq belonging to the current cpu on which the period timer runs, the patch fixes it, so that the correct rt_se is enqueued/dequeued. Tested with a simple hierarchy /c/d, c and d assigned similar runtimes of 50,000 and a while 1 loop runs within "d". Both c and d get throttled, without the patch, the task just stops running and never runs (depends on where the sched_rt b/w timer runs). With the patch, the task is throttled and runs as expected.

The case that goes wrong is when changing away from the fair class while sleeping. Sleeping tasks have non-normalized vruntime in order to make sleeper-fairness work. So treat the switch away from fair as a wakeup and preserve the relative vruntime. Also update sysrq-n to call the ->switch_{to,from} methods.

2010-10-18sched: Do not account irq time to current taskVenkatesh Pallipadi1-4/+4
Scheduler accounts both softirq and interrupt processing times to the currently running task. This means, if the interrupt processing was for some other task in the system, then the current task ends up being penalized as it gets shorter runtime than otherwise. Change sched task accounting to acoount only actual task time from currently running task. Now update_curr(), modifies the delta_exec to depend on rq->clock_task. Note that this change only handles CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING case. We can extend this to CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING with minimal effort. But, thats for later. This change will impact scheduling behavior in interrupt heavy conditions. Tested on a 4-way system with eth0 handled by CPU 2 and a network heavy task (nc) running on CPU 3 (and no RSS/RFS). With that I have CPU 2 spending 75%+ of its time in irq processing. CPU 3 spending around 35% time running nc task. Now, if I run another CPU intensive task on CPU 2, without this change /proc/<pid>/schedstat shows 100% of time accounted to this task. With this change, it rightly shows less than 25% accounted to this task as remaining time is actually spent on irq processing.

2010-09-21sched: Try not to migrate higher priority RT tasksSteven Rostedt1-10/+12
When first working on the RT scheduler design, we concentrated on keeping all CPUs running RT tasks instead of having multiple RT tasks on a single CPU waiting for the migration thread to move them. Instead we take a more proactive stance and push or pull RT tasks from one CPU to another on wakeup or scheduling. When an RT task wakes up on a CPU that is running another RT task, instead of preempting it and killing the cache of the running RT task, we look to see if we can migrate the RT task that is waking up, even if the RT task waking up is of higher priority. This may sound a bit odd, but RT tasks should be limited in migration by the user anyway. But in practice, people do not do this, which causes high prio RT tasks to bounce around the CPUs. This becomes even worse when we have priority inheritance, because a high prio task can block on a lower prio task and boost its priority. When the lower prio task wakes up the high prio task, if it happens to be on the same CPU it will migrate off of it. But in reality, the above does not happen much either, because the wake up of the lower prio task, which has already been boosted, if it was on the same CPU as the higher prio task, it would then migrate off of it. But anyway, we do not want to migrate them either. To examine the scheduling, I created a test program and examined it under kernelshark. The test program created CPU * 2 threads, where each thread had a different priority. The program takes different options. The options used in this change log was to have priority inheritance mutexes or not. All threads did the following loop: static void grab_lock(long id, int iter, int l) { ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d, taking lock %d\n", id, iter, l); pthread_mutex_lock(&locks[l]); ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d, took lock %d\n", id, iter, l); busy_loop(nr_tasks - id); ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d, unlock lock %d\n", id, iter, l); pthread_mutex_unlock(&locks[l]); } void *start_task(void *id) { [...] while (!done) { for (l = 0; l < nr_locks; l++) { grab_lock(id, i, l); ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d sleeping\n", id, i); ms_sleep(id); } i++; } [...] } The busy_loop(ms) keeps the CPU spinning for ms milliseconds. The ms_sleep(ms) sleeps for ms milliseconds. The ftrace_write() writes to the ftrace buffer to help analyze via ftrace. The higher the id, the higher the prio, the shorter it does the busy loop, but the longer it spins. This is usually the case with RT tasks, the lower priority tasks usually run longer than higher priority tasks. At the end of the test, it records the number of loops each thread took, as well as the number of voluntary preemptions, non-voluntary preemptions, and number of migrations each thread took, taking the information from /proc/$$/sched and /proc/$$/status. Running this on a 4 CPU processor, the results without changes to the kernel looked like this: Task vol nonvol migrated iterations ---- --- ------ -------- ---------- 0: 53 3220 1470 98 1: 562 773 724 98 2: 752 933 1375 98 3: 749 39 697 98 4: 758 5 515 98 5: 764 2 679 99 6: 761 2 535 99 7: 757 3 346 99 total: 5156 4977 6341 787 Each thread regardless of priority migrated a few hundred times. The higher priority tasks, were a little better but still took quite an impact. By letting higher priority tasks bump the lower prio task from the CPU, things changed a bit: Task vol nonvol migrated iterations ---- --- ------ -------- ---------- 0: 37 2835 1937 98 1: 666 1821 1865 98 2: 654 1003 1385 98 3: 664 635 973 99 4: 698 197 352 99 5: 703 101 159 99 6: 708 1 75 99 7: 713 1 2 99 total: 4843 6594 6748 789 The total # of migrations did not change (several runs showed the difference all within the noise). But we now see a dramatic improvement to the higher priority tasks. (kernelshark showed that the watchdog timer bumped the highest priority task to give it the 2 count. This was actually consistent with every run). Notice that the # of iterations did not change either. The above was with priority inheritance mutexes. That is, when the higher prority task blocked on a lower priority task, the lower priority task would inherit the higher priority task (which shows why task 6 was bumped so many times). When not using priority inheritance mutexes, the current kernel shows this: Task vol nonvol migrated iterations ---- --- ------ -------- ---------- 0: 56 3101 1892 95 1: 594 713 937 95 2: 625 188 618 95 3: 628 4 491 96 4: 640 7 468 96 5: 631 2 501 96 6: 641 1 466 96 7: 643 2 497 96 total: 4458 4018 5870 765 Not much changed with or without priority inheritance mutexes. But if we let the high priority task bump lower priority tasks on wakeup we see: Task vol nonvol migrated iterations ---- --- ------ -------- ---------- 0: 115 3439 2782 98 1: 633 1354 1583 99 2: 652 919 1218 99 3: 645 713 934 99 4: 690 3 3 99 5: 694 1 4 99 6: 720 3 4 99 7: 747 0 1 100 Which shows a even bigger change. The big difference between task 3 and task 4 is because we have only 4 CPUs on the machine, causing the 4 highest prio tasks to always have preference. Although I did not measure cache misses, and I'm sure there would be little to measure since the test was not data intensive, I could imagine large improvements for higher priority tasks when dealing with lower priority tasks. Thus, I'm satisfied with making the change and agreeing with what Gregory Haskins argued a few years ago when we first had this discussion. One final note. All tasks in the above tests were RT tasks. Any RT task will always preempt a non RT task that is running on the CPU the RT task wants to run on.

2010-04-02sched: Fix TASK_WAKING vs fork deadlockPeter Zijlstra1-3/+2
Oleg noticed a few races with the TASK_WAKING usage on fork. - since TASK_WAKING is basically a spinlock, it should be IRQ safe - since we set TASK_WAKING (*) without holding rq->lock it could be there still is a rq->lock holder, thereby not actually providing full serialization. (*) in fact we clear PF_STARTING, which in effect enables TASK_WAKING. Cure the second issue by not setting TASK_WAKING in sched_fork(), but only temporarily in wake_up_new_task() while calling select_task_rq(). Cure the first by holding rq->lock around the select_task_rq() call, this will disable IRQs, this however requires that we push down the rq->lock release into select_task_rq_fair()'s cgroup stuff. Because select_task_rq_fair() still needs to drop the rq->lock we cannot fully get rid of TASK_WAKING.

2010-03-06kernel core: use helpers for rlimitsJiri Slaby1-2/+3
Make sure compiler won't do weird things with limits. E.g. fetching them twice may return 2 different values after writable limits are implemented. I.e. either use rlimit helpers added in commit 3e10e716abf3 ("resource: add helpers for fetching rlimits") or ACCESS_ONCE if not applicable.

2009-11-04cpumask: Simplify sched_rt.cRusty Russell1-37/+24
find_lowest_rq() wants to call pick_optimal_cpu() on the intersection of sched_domain_span(sd) and lowest_mask. Rather than doing a cpus_and into a temporary, we can open-code it. This actually makes the code slightly clearer, IMHO.

2009-08-02sched: Fully integrate cpus_active_map and root-domain codeGregory Haskins1-7/+0
Reflect "active" cpus in the rq->rd->online field, instead of the online_map. The motivation is that things that use the root-domain code (such as cpupri) only care about cpus classified as "active" anyway. By synchronizing the root-domain state with the active map, we allow several optimizations. For instance, we can remove an extra cpumask_and from the scheduler hotpath by utilizing rq->rd->online (since it is now a cached version of cpu_active_map & rq->rd->span).
