2017-02-04tick/broadcast: Reduce lock cacheline contentionWaiman Long1-7/+8
It was observed that on an Intel x86 system without the ARAT (Always running APIC timer) feature and with fairly large number of CPUs as well as CPUs coming in and out of intel_idle frequently, the lock contention on the tick_broadcast_lock can become significant. To reduce contention, the lock is put into its own cacheline and all the cpumask_var_t variables are put into the __read_mostly section. Running the SP benchmark of the NAS Parallel Benchmarks on a 4-socket 16-core 32-thread Nehalam system, the performance number improved from 3353.94 Mop/s to 3469.31 Mop/s when this patch was applied on a 4.9.6 kernel. This is a 3.4% improvement.

2017-02-03modversions: treat symbol CRCs as 32 bit quantitiesArd Biesheuvel1-28/+25
The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value. This has a couple of downsides: - Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes for each CRC on 64 bit architectures, - On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the core module code) - Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for CRCs. Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC value is stored. So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the __CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use 32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained for 32-bit architectures. Note that this mostly reverts commit d4703aefdbc8 ("module: handle ppc64 relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y") Acked-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2017-02-01sched/rt: Show the 'sched_rr_timeslice' SCHED_RR timeslice tuning knob in ↵Shile Zhang3-3/+5
milliseconds We added the 'sched_rr_timeslice_ms' SCHED_RR tuning knob in this commit: ce0dbbbb30ae ("sched/rt: Add a tuning knob to allow changing SCHED_RR timeslice") ... which name suggests to users that it's in milliseconds, while in reality it's being set in milliseconds but the result is shown in jiffies. This is obviously confusing when HZ is not 1000, it makes it appear like the value set failed, such as HZ=100: root# echo 100 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rr_timeslice_ms root# cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rr_timeslice_ms 10 Fix this to be milliseconds all around.

The irqtime is accounted is nsecs and stored in cpu_irq_time.hardirq_time and cpu_irq_time.softirq_time. Once the accumulated amount reaches a new jiffy, this one gets accounted to the kcpustat. This was necessary when kcpustat was stored in cputime_t, which could at worst have jiffies granularity. But now kcpustat is stored in nsecs so this whole discretization game with temporary irqtime storage has become unnecessary. We can now directly account the irqtime to the kcpustat.

2017-02-01sched/cputime: Convert task/group cputime to nsecsFrederic Weisbecker4-30/+29
Now that most cputime readers use the transition API which return the task cputime in old style cputime_t, we can safely store the cputime in nsecs. This will eventually make cputime statistics less opaque and more granular. Back and forth convertions between cputime_t and nsecs in order to deal with cputime_t random granularity won't be needed anymore.

2017-01-31tracing: Fix hwlat kthread migrationSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-3/+5
The hwlat tracer creates a kernel thread at start of the tracer. It is pinned to a single CPU and will move to the next CPU after each period of running. If the user modifies the migration thread's affinity, it will not change after that happens. The original code created the thread at the first instance it was called, but later was changed to destroy the thread after the tracer was finished, and would not be created until the next instance of the tracer was established. The code that initialized the affinity was only called on the initial instantiation of the tracer. After that, it was not initialized, and the previous affinity did not match the current newly created one, making it appear that the user modified the thread's affinity when it did not, and the thread failed to migrate again.

Since commit f3b0946d629c ("genirq/msi: Make sure PCI MSIs are activated early"), we can end-up activating a PCI/MSI twice (once at allocation time, and once at startup time). This is normally of no consequences, except that there is some HW out there that may misbehave if activate is used more than once (the GICv3 ITS, for example, uses the activate callback to issue the MAPVI command, and the architecture spec says that "If there is an existing mapping for the EventID-DeviceID combination, behavior is UNPREDICTABLE"). While this could be worked around in each individual driver, it may make more sense to tackle the issue at the core level. In order to avoid getting in that situation, let's have a per-interrupt flag to remember if we have already activated that interrupt or not.

2017-01-30perf/core: Try parent PMU first when initializing a child eventKan Liang1-0/+8
perf has additional overhead when monitoring the task which frequently generates child tasks. perf_init_event() is one of the hotspots for the additional overhead: Currently, to get the PMU, it tries to search the type in pmu_idr at first. But it is not always successful, especially for the widely used PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE events. So it has to go to the slow path which go through the whole PMUs list. It will be a big performance issue, if the PMUs list is long (e.g. server with many uncore boxes) and the task frequently generates child tasks. The child event inherits its parent event. So the child event should try its parent PMU first. Here is some data from the overhead test on Broadwell server: perf record -e $TEST_EVENTS -- ./loop.sh 50000 loop.sh start=$(date +%s%N) i=0 while [ "$i" -le "$1" ] do date > /dev/null i=`expr $i + 1` done end=$(date +%s%N) elapsed=`expr $end - $start` Event# Original elapsed time Elapsed time with patch delta 1 196,573,192,397 189,162,029,998 -3.77% 2 257,567,753,013 241,620,788,683 -6.19% 4 398,730,726,971 370,518,938,714 -7.08% 8 824,983,761,120 740,702,489,329 -10.22% 16 1,883,411,923,498 1,672,027,508,355 -11.22% ... which shows a nice performance improvement.

2017-01-30perf/core: Remove perf_cpu_context::unique_pmuDavid Carrillo-Cisneros1-30/+1
cpuctx->unique_pmu was originally introduced as a way to identify cpuctxs with shared pmus in order to avoid visiting the same cpuctx more than once in a for_each_pmu loop. cpuctx->unique_pmu == cpuctx->pmu in non-software task contexts since they have only one pmu per cpuctx. Since perf_pmu_sched_task() is only called in hw contexts, this patch replaces cpuctx->unique_pmu by cpuctx->pmu in it. The change above, together with the previous patch in this series, removed the remaining uses of cpuctx->unique_pmu, so we remove it altogether.

2017-01-30perf/core: Make cgroup switch visit only cpuctxs with cgroup eventsDavid Carrillo-Cisneros1-53/+45
This patch follows from a conversation in CQM/CMT's last series about speeding up the context switch for cgroup events: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9478617/ This is a low-hanging fruit optimization. It replaces the iteration over the "pmus" list in cgroup switch by an iteration over a new list that contains only cpuctxs with at least one cgroup event. This is necessary because the number of PMUs have increased over the years e.g modern x86 server systems have well above 50 PMUs. The iteration over the full PMU list is unneccessary and can be costly in heavy cache contention scenarios. Below are some instrumentation measurements with 10, 50 and 90 percentiles of the total cost of context switch before and after this optimization for a simple array read/write microbenchark. Contention Level Nr events Before (us) After (us) Median L2 L3 types (10%, 50%, 90%) (10%, 50%, 90% Speedup -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Low Low 1 (1.72, 2.42, 5.85) (1.35, 1.64, 5.46) 29% High Low 1 (2.08, 4.56, 19.8) (1720, 2.20, 13.7) 51% High High 1 (2.86, 10.4, 12.7) (2.54, 4.32, 12.1) 58% Low Low 2 (1.98, 3.20, 6.89) (1.68, 2.41, 8.89) 24% High Low 2 (2.48, 5.28, 22.4) (2150, 3.69, 14.6) 30% High High 2 (3.32, 8.09, 13.9) (2.80, 5.15, 13.7) 36% where: 1 event type = cycles 2 event types = cycles,intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/ Contention L2 Low: workset < L2 cache size.

Median Speedup is (50%ile Before - 50%ile After) / 50%ile Before Unsurprisingly, the benefits of this optimization decrease with the number of cpuctxs with a cgroup events, yet, is never detrimental.

2017-01-30sched/rt: Add a missing rescheduling pointSebastian Andrzej Siewior2-4/+2
Since the change in commit: fd7a4bed1835 ("sched, rt: Convert switched_{from, to}_rt() / prio_changed_rt() to balance callbacks") ... we don't reschedule a task under certain circumstances: Lets say task-A, SCHED_OTHER, is running on CPU0 (and it may run only on CPU0) and holds a PI lock. This task is removed from the CPU because it used up its time slice and another SCHED_OTHER task is running. Task-B on CPU1 runs at RT priority and asks for the lock owned by task-A. This results in a priority boost for task-A. Task-B goes to sleep until the lock has been made available. Task-A is already runnable (but not active), so it receives no wake up. The reality now is that task-A gets on the CPU once the scheduler decides to remove the current task despite the fact that a high priority task is enqueued and waiting. This may take a long time. The desired behaviour is that CPU0 immediately reschedules after the priority boost which made task-A the task with the lowest priority.
