Before we implement isolcpus under housekeeping, we need the isolation
features to be more finegrained. For example some people want NOHZ_FULL
without the full scheduler isolation, others want full scheduler
isolation without NOHZ_FULL.

So let's cut all these isolation features piecewise, at the risk of
overcutting it right now. We can still merge some flags later if they
always make sense together.

find_idlest_group() returns NULL when the local group is idlest. The
caller then continues the find_idlest_group() search at a lower level
of the current CPU's sched_domain hierarchy. find_idlest_group_cpu() is
not consulted and, crucially, @new_cpu is not updated. This means the
search is pointless and we return @prev_cpu from select_task_rq_fair().

This is fixed by initialising @new_cpu to @cpu instead of @prev_cpu.

When 'p' is not allowed on any of the CPUs in the sched_domain, we
currently return NULL from find_idlest_group(), and pointlessly
continue the search on lower sched_domain levels (where 'p' is also not
allowed) before returning prev_cpu regardless (as we have not updated
new_cpu).

Add an explicit check for this case, and add a comment to
find_idlest_group(). Now when find_idlest_group() returns NULL, it always
means that the local group is allowed and idlest.

When the local group is not allowed we do not modify this_*_load from
their initial value of 0. That means that the load checks at the end
of find_idlest_group cause us to incorrectly return NULL. Fixing the

In preparation for changes that would otherwise require adding a new
level of indentation to the while(sd) loop, create a new function
find_idlest_cpu() which contains this loop, and rename the existing
find_idlest_cpu() to find_idlest_group_cpu().

Code inside the while(sd) loop is unchanged. @new_cpu is added as a
variable in the new function, with the same initial value as the
@new_cpu in select_task_rq_fair().

The "goto force_balance" here is intended to mitigate the fact that
avg_load calculations can result in bad placement decisions when
priority is asymmetrical.

The original commit that adds it:

  fab47622 ("sched: Force balancing on newidle balance if local group has capacity")

explains:

    Under certain situations, such as a niced down task (i.e. nice =
    -15) in the presence of nr_cpus NICE0 tasks, the niced task lands
    on a sched group and kicks away other tasks because of its large
    weight. This leads to sub-optimal utilization of the
    machine. Even though the sched group has capacity, it does not
    pull tasks because sds.this_load >> sds.max_load, and f_b_g()
    returns NULL.

A similar but inverted issue also affects ARM big.LITTLE (asymmetrical CPU
capacity) systems - consider 8 always-running, same-priority tasks on a
system with 4 "big" and 4 "little" CPUs. Suppose that 5 of them end up on
the "big" CPUs (which will be represented by one sched_group in the DIE
sched_domain) and 3 on the "little" (the other sched_group in DIE), leaving
one CPU unused. Because the "big" group has a higher group_capacity its
avg_load may not present an imbalance that would cause migrating a
task to the idle "little".

The force_balance case here solves the problem but currently only for
CPU_NEWLY_IDLE balances, which in theory might never happen on the
unused CPU. Including CPU_IDLE in the force_balance case means
there's an upper bound on the time before we can attempt to solve the
underutilization: after DIE's sd->balance_interval has passed the
next nohz balance kick will help us out.

We use task_util() in find_idlest_group() via capacity_spare_wake().
This task_util() updated in wake_cap(). However wake_cap() is not the
only reason for ending up in find_idlest_group() - we could have been sent
there by wake_wide(). So explicitly sync the task util with prev_cpu
when we are about to head to find_idlest_group().

We could simply do this at the beginning of
select_task_rq_fair() (i.e. irrespective of whether we're heading to
select_idle_sibling() or find_idlest_group() & co), but I didn't want to
slow down the select_idle_sibling() path more than necessary.

Don't do this during fork balancing, we won't need the task_util and
we'd just clobber the last_update_time, which is supposed to be 0.

As a first step this patch makes cfs_tasks list as MRU one.
It means, that when a next task is picked to run on physical
CPU it is moved to the front of the list.

Therefore, the cfs_tasks list is more or less sorted (except
woken tasks) starting from recently given CPU time tasks toward
tasks with max wait time in a run-queue, i.e. MRU list.

Second, as part of the load balance operation, this approach
starts detach_tasks()/detach_one_task() from the tail of the
queue instead of the head, giving some advantages:

 - tends to pick a task with highest wait time;

 - tasks located in the tail are less likely cache-hot,
   therefore the can_migrate_task() decision is higher.

hackbench illustrates slightly better performance. For example
doing 1000 samples and 40 groups on i5-3320M CPU, it shows below

This patch takes out all the shiny wake_affine() stuff and goes back to
utter basics. Between the two CPUs involved with the wakeup (the CPU
doing the wakeup and the CPU we ran on previously) pick the CPU we can
run on _now_.

This restores much of the regressions against the older kernels,
but leaves some ground in the overloaded case. The default-enabled
WA_WEIGHT (which will be introduced in the next patch) is an attempt
to address the overloaded situation.

Our runnable_weight currently looks like this

runnable_weight = shares * runnable_load_avg / load_avg

The goal is to scale the runnable weight for the group based on its runnable to
load_avg ratio.  The problem with this is it biases us towards tasks that never
go to sleep.  Tasks that go to sleep are going to have their runnable_load_avg
decayed pretty hard, which will drastically reduce the runnable weight of groups
with interactive tasks.  To solve this imbalance we tweak this slightly, so in
the ideal case it is still the above, but in the interactive case it is

runnable_weight = shares * runnable_weight / load_weight

which will make the weight distribution fairer between interactive and
non-interactive groups.

The problem with the overestimate is that it will subtract too big a
value from the load_sum, thereby pushing it down further than it ought
to go. Since runnable_load_avg is not subject to a similar 'force',
this results in the occasional 'runnable_load > load' situation.

The PELT _sum values are a saw-tooth function, dropping on the decay
edge and then growing back up again during the window.

When these window-edges are not aligned between cfs_rq and se, we can
have the situation where, for example, on dequeue, the se decays
first.

Its _sum values will be small(er), while the cfs_rq _sum values will
still be on their way up. Because of this, the subtraction:
cfs_rq->avg._sum -= se->avg._sum will result in a positive value. This
will then, once the cfs_rq reaches an edge, translate into its _avg
value jumping up.

This is especially visible with the runnable_load bits, since they get
added/subtracted a lot.

Vincent wondered why his self migrating task had a roughly 50% dip in
load_avg when landing on the new CPU. This is because we uncondionally
take the asynchronous detatch_entity route, which can lead to the
attach on the new CPU still seeing the old CPU's contribution to
tg->load_avg, effectively halving the new CPU's shares.

While in general this is something we have to live with, there is the
special case of runnable migration where we can do better.

The load balancer uses runnable_load_avg as load indicator. For
!cgroup this is:

  runnable_load_avg = \Sum se->avg.load_avg ; where se->on_rq

That is, a direct sum of all runnable tasks on that runqueue. As
opposed to load_avg, which is a sum of all tasks on the runqueue,
which includes a blocked component.

However, in the cgroup case, this comes apart since the group entities
are always runnable, even if most of their constituent entities are
blocked.

Therefore introduce a runnable_weight which for task entities is the
same as the regular weight, but for group entities is a fraction of
the entity weight and represents the runnable part of the group
runqueue.

Then propagate this load through the PELT hierarchy to arrive at an
effective runnable load avgerage -- which we should not confuse with
the canonical runnable load average.

When an entity migrates in (or out) of a runqueue, we need to add (or
remove) its contribution from the entire PELT hierarchy, because even
non-runnable entities are included in the load average sums.

In order to do this we have some propagation logic that updates the
PELT tree, however the way it 'propagates' the runnable (or load)
change is (more or less):

                     tg->weight * grq->avg.load_avg
  ge->avg.load_avg = ------------------------------
                               tg->load_avg

But that is the expression for ge->weight, and per the definition of
load_avg:

  ge->avg.load_avg := ge->weight * ge->avg.runnable_avg

That destroys the runnable_avg (by setting it to 1) we wanted to
propagate.

Instead directly propagate runnable_sum.

Since on wakeup migration we don't hold the rq->lock for the old CPU
we cannot update its state. Instead we add the removed 'load' to an
atomic variable and have the next update on that CPU collect and
process it.

Currently we have 2 atomic variables; which already have the issue
that they can be read out-of-sync. Also, two atomic ops on a single
cacheline is already more expensive than an uncontended lock.

Since we want to add more, convert the thing over to an explicit
cacheline with a lock in.

When a (group) entity changes it's weight we should instantly change
its load_avg and propagate that change into the sums it is part of.
Because we use these values to predict future behaviour and are not
interested in its historical value.

Without this change, the change in load would need to propagate
through the average, by which time it could again have changed etc..
always chasing itself.

With this change, the cfs_rq load_avg sum will more accurately reflect
the current runnable and expected return of blocked load.

Move the entity migrate handling from enqueue_entity_load_avg() to
update_load_avg(). This has two benefits:

 - {en,de}queue_entity_load_avg() will become purely about managing
   runnable_load

 - we can avoid a double update_tg_load_avg() and reduce pressure on
   the global tg->shares cacheline

The reason we do this is so that we can change update_cfs_shares() to
change both weight and (future) runnable_weight. For this to work we
need to have the cfs_rq averages up-to-date (which means having done
the attach), but we need the cfs_rq->avg.runnable_avg to not yet
include the se's contribution (since se->on_rq == 0).

Remove the load from the load_sum for sched_entities, basically
turning load_sum into runnable_sum.  This prepares for better
reweighting of group entities.

Since we now have different rules for computing load_avg, split
___update_load_avg() into two parts, ___update_load_sum() and
___update_load_avg().

So for se:

  ___update_load_sum(.weight = 1)
  ___upate_load_avg(.weight = se->load.weight)

and for cfs_rq:

  ___update_load_sum(.weight = cfs_rq->load.weight)
  ___upate_load_avg(.weight = 1)

Since the primary consumable is load_avg, most things will not be
affected. Only those few sites that initialize/modify load_sum need
attention.

Vincent reported that when running in a cgroup, his root
cfs_rq->avg.load_avg dropped to 0 on task idle.

This is because reweight_entity() will now immediately propagate the
weight change of the group entity to its cfs_rq, and as it happens,
our approxmation (5) for calc_cfs_shares() results in 0 when the group
is idle.

Avoid this by using the correct (3) as a lower bound on (5). This way
the empty cgroup will slowly decay instead of instantly drop to 0.

The load balancer applies cpu_active_mask to whatever sched_domains it
finds, however in the case of active_balance there is a hole between
setting rq->{active_balance,push_cpu} and running the stop_machine
work doing the actual migration.

The @push_cpu can go offline in this window, which would result in us
moving a task onto a dead cpu, which is a fairly bad thing.

Double check the active mask before the stop work does the migration.

In commit:

  3fed382b ("sched/numa: Implement NUMA node level wake_affine()")

Rik changed wake_affine to consider NUMA information when balancing
between LLC domains.

There are a number of problems here which this patch tries to address:

 - LLC < NODE; in this case we'd use the wrong information to balance
 - !NUMA_BALANCING: in this case, the new code doesn't do any
   balancing at all
 - re-computes the NUMA data for every wakeup, this can mean iterating
   up to 64 CPUs for every wakeup.
 - default affine wakeups inside a cache

We address these by saving the load/capacity values for each
sched_domain during regular load-balance and using these values in
wake_affine_llc(). The obvious down-side to using cached values is
that they can be too old and poorly reflect reality.

But this way we can use LLC wide information and thus not rely on
assuming LLC matches NODE. We also don't rely on NUMA_BALANCING nor do
we have to aggegate two nodes (or even cache domains) worth of CPUs
for each wakeup.

single task was using the memory.

This really hurts some workloads.

Scale the scan period by the number of tasks in the numa group, and
the shared / private ratio, so the average rate at which memory in

The comment above update_task_scan_period() says the scan period should
be increased (scanning slows down) if the majority of memory accesses
are on the local node, or if the majority of the page accesses are
shared with other tasks.

However, with the current code, all a high ratio of shared accesses
does is slow down the rate at which scanning is made faster.

This patch changes things so either lots of shared accesses or
lots of local accesses will slow down scanning, and numa scanning
is sped up only when there are lots of private faults on remote
memory pages.
