It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util() and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data. However, doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they already take would be clumsy, so avoid it. Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly. This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util() and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow. Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track updates from the RT and DL sched classes. Make it non-modular too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at large. Next, update all of the other users of cpufreq_update_util() and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data accordingly.

Restore the processor state before calling any other functions to ensure per-CPU variables can be used with KASLR memory randomization. Tracing functions use per-CPU variables (GS based on x86) and one was called just before restoring the processor state fully. It resulted in a double fault when both the tracing & the exception handler functions tried to use a per-CPU variable.

Commit: 57430218 ("sched/cputime: Count actually elapsed irq & softirq time") ... didn't take steal time into consideration with passing the noirqtime kernel parameter. As Paolo pointed out before: | Why not? If idle=poll, for example, any time the guest is suspended (and | thus cannot poll) does count as stolen time. This patch fixes it by reducing steal time from idle time accounting when the noirqtime parameter is true. The average idle time drops from 56.8% to 54.75% for nohz idle kvm guest(noirqtime, idle=poll, four vCPUs running on one pCPU).

Commit: 6e998916 ("sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency") fixed a problem whereby clock_nanosleep() followed by clock_gettime() could allow a task to wake early. It addressed the problem by calling the scheduling classes update_curr() when the cputimer starts. Said change induced a considerable performance regression on the syscalls times() and clock_gettimes(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID). There are some debuggers and applications that monitor their own performance that accidentally depend on the performance of these specific calls. This patch mitigates the performace loss by prefetching data in the CPU cache, as stalls due to cache misses appear to be where most time is spent in our benchmarks. Here are the performance gain of this patch over v4.7-rc7 on a Sandy Bridge box with 32 logical cores and 2 NUMA nodes. The test is repeated with a variable number of threads, from 2 to 4*num_cpus; the results are in seconds and correspond to the average of 10 runs; the percentage gain is computed with (before-after)/before so a positive value is an improvement (it's faster). The improvement varies between a few percents for 5-20 threads and more than 10% for 2 or >20 threads. pound_clock_gettime: threads 4.7-rc7 patched 4.7-rc7 [num] [secs] [secs (percent)] 2 3.48 3.06 ( 11.83%) 5 3.33 3.25 ( 2.40%) 8 3.37 3.26 ( 3.30%) 12 3.32 3.37 ( -1.60%) 21 4.01 3.90 ( 2.74%) 30 3.63 3.36 ( 7.41%) 48 3.71 3.11 ( 16.27%) 79 3.75 3.16 ( 15.74%) 110 3.81 3.25 ( 14.80%) 128 3.88 3.31 ( 14.76%) pound_times: threads 4.7-rc7 patched 4.7-rc7 [num] [secs] [secs (percent)] 2 3.65 3.25 ( 11.03%) 5 3.45 3.17 ( 7.92%) 8 3.52 3.22 ( 8.69%) 12 3.29 3.36 ( -2.04%) 21 4.07 3.92 ( 3.78%) 30 3.87 3.40 ( 12.17%) 48 3.79 3.16 ( 16.61%) 79 3.88 3.28 ( 15.42%) 110 3.90 3.38 ( 13.35%) 128 4.00 3.38 ( 15.45%) pound_clock_gettime and pound_clock_gettime are two benchmarks included in the MMTests framework. They launch a given number of threads which repeatedly call times() or clock_gettimes(). The results above can be reproduced with cloning MMTests from github.com and running the "poundtime" workload: $ git clone https://github.com/gormanm/mmtests.git $ cd mmtests $ cp configs/config-global-dhp__workload_poundtime config $ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r) The above will run "poundtime" measuring the kernel currently running on the machine; Once a new kernel is installed and the machine rebooted, running again $ cd mmtests $ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r) will produce results to compare with. A comparison table will be output with: $ cd mmtests/work/log $ ../../compare-kernels.sh the table will contain a lot of entries; grepping for "Amean" (as in "arithmetic mean") will give the tables presented above. The source code for the two benchmarks is reported at the end of this changelog for clairity. The cache misses addressed by this patch were found using a combination of `perf top`, `perf record` and `perf annotate`. The incriminated lines were found to be struct sched_entity *curr = cfs_rq->curr; and delta_exec = now - curr->exec_start; in the function update_curr() from kernel/sched/fair.c. This patch prefetches the data from memory just before update_curr is called in the interested execution path. A comparison of the total number of cycles before and after the patch follows; the data is obtained using `perf stat -r 10 -ddd <program>` running over the same sequence of number of threads used above (a positive gain is an improvement): threads cycles before cycles after gain 2 19,699,563,964 +-1.19% 17,358,917,517 +-1.85% 11.88% 5 47,401,089,566 +-2.96% 45,103,730,829 +-0.97% 4.85% 8 80,923,501,004 +-3.01% 71,419,385,977 +-0.77% 11.74% 12 112,326,485,473 +-0.47% 110,371,524,403 +-0.47% 1.74% 21 193,455,574,299 +-0.72% 180,120,667,904 +-0.36% 6.89% 30 315,073,519,013 +-1.64% 271,222,225,950 +-1.29% 13.92% 48 321,969,515,332 +-1.48% 273,353,977,321 +-1.16% 15.10% 79 337,866,003,422 +-0.97% 289,462,481,538 +-1.05% 14.33% 110 338,712,691,920 +-0.78% 290,574,233,170 +-0.77% 14.21% 128 348,384,794,006 +-0.50% 292,691,648,206 +-0.66% 15.99% A comparison of cache miss vs total cache loads ratios, before and after the patch (again from the `perf stat -r 10 -ddd <program>` tables): threads L1 misses/total*100 L1 misses/total*100 gain before after 2 7.43 +-4.90% 7.36 +-4.70% 0.94% 5 13.09 +-4.74% 13.52 +-3.73% -3.28% 8 13.79 +-5.61% 12.90 +-3.27% 6.45% 12 11.57 +-2.44% 8.71 +-1.40% 24.72% 21 12.39 +-3.92% 9.97 +-1.84% 19.53% 30 13.91 +-2.53% 11.73 +-2.28% 15.67% 48 13.71 +-1.59% 12.32 +-1.97% 10.14% 79 14.44 +-0.66% 13.40 +-1.06% 7.20% 110 15.86 +-0.50% 14.46 +-0.59% 8.83% 128 16.51 +-0.32% 15.06 +-0.78% 8.78% As a final note, the following shows the evolution of performance figures in the "poundtime" benchmark and pinpoints commit 6e998916 ("sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency") as a major source of degradation, mostly unaddressed to this day (figures expressed in seconds). pound_clock_gettime: threads parent of 6e998916 4.7-rc7 6e998916 itself 2 2.23 3.68 ( -64.56%) 3.48 (-55.48%) 5 2.83 3.78 ( -33.42%) 3.33 (-17.43%) 8 2.84 4.31 ( -52.12%) 3.37 (-18.76%) 12 3.09 3.61 ( -16.74%) 3.32 ( -7.17%) 21 3.14 4.63 ( -47.36%) 4.01 (-27.71%) 30 3.28 5.75 ( -75.37%) 3.63 (-10.80%) 48 3.02 6.05 (-100.56%) 3.71 (-22.99%) 79 2.88 6.30 (-118.90%) 3.75 (-30.26%) 110 2.95 6.46 (-119.00%) 3.81 (-29.24%) 128 3.05 6.42 (-110.08%) 3.88 (-27.04%) pound_times: threads parent of 6e998916 4.7-rc7 6e998916 itself 2 2.27 3.73 ( -64.71%) 3.65 (-61.14%) 5 2.78 3.77 ( -35.56%) 3.45 (-23.98%) 8 2.79 4.41 ( -57.71%) 3.52 (-26.05%) 12 3.02 3.56 ( -17.94%) 3.29 ( -9.08%) 21 3.10 4.61 ( -48.74%) 4.07 (-31.34%) 30 3.33 5.75 ( -72.53%) 3.87 (-16.01%) 48 2.96 6.06 (-105.04%) 3.79 (-28.10%) 79 2.88 6.24 (-116.83%) 3.88 (-34.81%) 110 2.98 6.37 (-114.08%) 3.90 (-31.12%) 128 3.10 6.35 (-104.61%) 4.00 (-28.87%) The source code of the two benchmarks follows.

由 Tommaso Cucinotta 提交于
Current code in cpudeadline.c has a bug in re-heapifying when adding a new element at the end of the heap, because a deadline value of 0 is temporarily set in the new elem, then cpudl_change_key() is called with the actual elem deadline as param. However, the function compares the new deadline to set with the one previously in the elem, which is 0. So, if current absolute deadlines grew so much to have negative values as s64, the comparison in cpudl_change_key() makes the wrong decision. Instead, as from dl_time_before(), the kernel should handle correctly abs deadlines wrap-arounds. This patch fixes the problem with a minimally invasive change that forces cpudl_change_key() to heapify up in this case.

There's a perf stat bug easy to observer on a machine with only one cgroup: $ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -C 0 -G / # time counts unit events 1.000161699 <not counted> cycles / 2.000355591 <not counted> cycles / 3.000565154 <not counted> cycles / 4.000951350 <not counted> cycles / We'd expect some output there. The underlying problem is that there is an optimization in perf_cgroup_sched_{in,out}() that skips the switch of cgroup events if the old and new cgroups in a task switch are the same. This optimization interacts with the current code in two ways that cause a CPU context's cgroup (cpuctx->cgrp) to be NULL even if a cgroup event matches the current task. These are: 1. On creation of the first cgroup event in a CPU: In current code, cpuctx->cpu is only set in perf_cgroup_sched_in, but due to the aforesaid optimization, perf_cgroup_sched_in will run until the next cgroup switches in that CPU. This may happen late or never happen, depending on system's number of cgroups, CPU load, etc. 2. On deletion of the last cgroup event in a cpuctx: In list_del_event, cpuctx->cgrp is set NULL. Any new cgroup event will not be sched in because cpuctx->cgrp == NULL until a cgroup switch occurs and perf_cgroup_sched_in is executed (updating cpuctx->cgrp). This patch fixes both problems by setting cpuctx->cgrp in list_add_event, mirroring what list_del_event does when removing a cgroup event from CPU context, as introduced in: commit 68cacd29 ("perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()") With this patch, cpuctx->cgrp is always set/clear when installing/removing the first/last cgroup event in/from the CPU context. With cpuctx->cgrp correctly set, event_filter_match works as intended when events are sched in/out. After the fix, the output is as expected: $ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -a -G / # time counts unit events 1.004699159 627342882 cycles / 2.007397156 615272690 cycles / 3.010019057 616726074 cycles / Signed-off-by: NDavid Carrillo-Cisneros <davidcc@google.com> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Cc: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1470124092-113192-1-git-send-email-davidcc@google.comSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

This reverts commit 874f9c7d. Geert Uytterhoeven reports: "This change seems to have an (unintendent?) side-effect. Before, pr_*() calls without a trailing newline characters would be printed with a newline character appended, both on the console and in the output of the dmesg command. After this commit, no new line character is appended, and the output of the next pr_*() call of the same type may be appended, like in: - Truncating RAM at 0x0000000040000000-0x00000000c0000000 to -0x0000000070000000 - Ignoring RAM at 0x0000000200000000-0x0000000240000000 (!CONFIG_HIGHMEM) + Truncating RAM at 0x0000000040000000-0x00000000c0000000 to -0x0000000070000000Ignoring RAM at 0x0000000200000000-0x0000000240000000 (!CONFIG_HIGHMEM)" Joe Perches says: "No, that is not intentional.

The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() routine is not properly canceling the sched timer when nothing is pending, because get_next_timer_interrupt() is no longer returning KTIME_MAX in that case. This causes periodic interrupts when none are needed. When determining the next interrupt time, we first use __next_timer_interrupt() to get the first expiring timer in the timer wheel. If no timer is found, we return the base clock value plus NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA to indicate there is no timer in the timer wheel. Back in get_next_timer_interrupt(), we set the "expires" value by converting the timer wheel expiry (in ticks) to a nsec value. But we don't want to do this if the timer wheel expiry value indicates no timer; we want to return KTIME_MAX. Prior to commit 500462a9 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel") we checked base->active_timers to see if any timers were active, and if not, we didn't touch the expiry value and so properly returned KTIME_MAX. Now we don't have active_timers. To fix this, we now just check the timer wheel expiry value to see if it is "now + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA", and if it is, we don't try to compute a new value based on it, but instead simply let the KTIME_MAX value in expires remain.

Bharat Kumar Gogada reported issues with the generic MSI code, where the end-point ended up with garbage in its MSI configuration (both for the vector and the message). It turns out that the two MSI paths in the kernel are doing slightly different things: generic MSI: disable MSI -> allocate MSI -> enable MSI -> setup EP PCI MSI: disable MSI -> allocate MSI -> setup EP -> enable MSI And it turns out that end-points are allowed to latch the content of the MSI configuration registers as soon as MSIs are enabled. In Bharat's case, the end-point ends up using whatever was there already, which is not what you want. In order to make things converge, we introduce a new MSI domain flag (MSI_FLAG_ACTIVATE_EARLY) that is unconditionally set for PCI/MSI. When set, this flag forces the programming of the end-point as soon as the MSIs are allocated. A consequence of this is that we have an extra activate in irq_startup, but that should be without much consequence. tglx: - Several people reported a VMWare regression with PCI/MSI-X passthrough. It turns out that the patch also cures that issue. - We need to have a look at the MSI disable interrupt path, where we write the msg to all zeros without disabling MSI in the PCI device.

The current jump_label.h includes bug.h for things such as WARN_ON(). This makes the header problematic for inclusion by kernel.h or any headers that kernel.h includes, since bug.h includes kernel.h (circular dependency). The inclusion of atomic.h is similarly problematic. Thus, this should make jump_label.h 'includable' from most places.

The use of config_enabled() against config options is ambiguous. In practical terms, config_enabled() is equivalent to IS_BUILTIN(), but the author might have used it for the meaning of IS_ENABLED(). Using IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN(), IS_MODULE() etc. makes the intention clearer. This commit replaces config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() where possible. This commit is only touching bool config options. I noticed two cases where config_enabled() is used against a tristate option: - config_enabled(CONFIG_HWMON) [ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/thermal.c ] - config_enabled(CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE) [ drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/opregion.c ] I did not touch them because they should be converted to IS_BUILTIN() in order to keep the logic, but I was not sure it was the authors' intention.

Blacklisting a module in linux has long been a problem. The current procedure is to use rd.blacklist=module_name, however, that doesn't cover the case after the initramfs and before a boot prompt (where one is supposed to use /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to blacklist runtime loading). Using rd.shell to get an early prompt is hit-or-miss, and doesn't cover all situations AFAICT. This patch adds this functionality of permanently blacklisting a module by its name via the kernel parameter module_blacklist=module_name.

Commit 20d8b67c ("relay: add buffer-only channels; useful for early logging") added support to use channels with no associated files. This is useful when the exact location of relay file is not known or the the parent directory of relay file is not available, while creating the channel and the logging has to start right from the boot. But there was no provision to use global mode with buffer-only channels, which is added by this patch, without modifying the interface where initially there will be a dummy invocation of create_buf_file callback through which kernel client can convey the need of a global buffer. For the use case where drivers/kernel clients want a simple interface for the userspace, which enables them to capture data/logs from relay file inorder & without any post processing, support of Global buffer mode is warranted. Modules, like i915, using relay_open() in early init would have to later register their buffer-only relays, once debugfs is available, by calling relay_late_setup_files(). Hence relay_late_setup_files() symbol also needs to be exported.

kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system. For certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space. To cater for these kinds of setups, we need to translate between the boot view physical addresses and the normal kernel view physical addresses. This patch extracts the current transation points into linux/kexec.h, and allows an architecture to override the functions. Due to the translations required, we unfortunately end up with six translation functions, which are reduced down to four that the architecture can override.

On PAE systems (eg, ARM LPAE) the vmcore note may be located above 4GB physical on 32-bit architectures, so we need a wider type than "unsigned long" here. Arrange for paddr_vmcoreinfo_note() to return a phys_addr_t, thereby allowing it to be located above 4GB. This makes no difference for kexec-tools, as they already assume a 64-bit type when reading from this file.

This is a cleanup patch to make kexec more clear to return error number directly. The variable result is useless, because there is no other function's return value assignes to it. So remove it.

Add a "printk.devkmsg" kernel command line parameter which controls how userspace writes into /dev/kmsg. It has three options: * ratelimit - ratelimit logging from userspace. * on - unlimited logging from userspace * off - logging from userspace gets ignored The default setting is to ratelimit the messages written to it. This changes the kernel default setting of "on" to "ratelimit" and we do that because we want to keep userspace spamming /dev/kmsg to sane levels. This is especially moot when a small kernel log buffer wraps around and messages get lost. So the ratelimiting setting should be a sane setting where kernel messages should have a bit higher chance of survival from all the spamming. It additionally does not limit logging to /dev/kmsg while the system is booting if we haven't disabled it on the command line. Furthermore, we can control the logging from a lower priority sysctl interface - kernel.printk_devkmsg. That interface will succeed only if printk.devkmsg *hasn't* been supplied on the command line. If it has, then printk.devkmsg is a one-time setting which remains for the duration of the system lifetime. This "locking" of the setting is to prevent userspace from changing the logging on us through sysctl(2). This patch is based on previous patches from Linus and Steven.

Messages' levels and console log level are inspected when the actual printing occurs, which may provoke console_unlock() and console_cont_flush() to waste CPU cycles on every message that has loglevel above the current console_loglevel. Schematically, console_unlock() does the following: console_unlock() { ... for (;;) { ... raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&logbuf_lock, flags); skip: msg = log_from_idx(console_idx); if (msg->flags & LOG_NOCONS) { ... goto skip; } level = msg->level; len += msg_print_text(); >> sprintfs memcpy, etc. if (nr_ext_console_drivers) { ext_len = msg_print_ext_header(); >> scnprintf ext_len += msg_print_ext_body(); >> scnprintfs etc. } ... raw_spin_unlock(&logbuf_lock); call_console_drivers(level, ext_text, ext_len, text, len) { if (level >= console_loglevel && >> drop the message !ignore_loglevel) return; console->write(...); } local_irq_restore(flags); } ... } The thing here is this deferred `level >= console_loglevel' check. We are wasting CPU cycles on sprintfs/memcpy/etc. preparing the messages that we will eventually drop. This can be huge when we register a new CON_PRINTBUFFER console, for instance. For every such a console register_console() resets the console_seq, console_idx, console_prev and sets a `exclusive console' pointer to replay the log buffer to that just-registered console. And there can be a lot of messages to replay, in the worst case most of which can be dropped after console_loglevel test. We know messages' levels long before we call msg_print_text() and friends, so we can just move console_loglevel check out of call_console_drivers() and format a new message only if we are sure that it won't be dropped. The patch factors out loglevel check into suppress_message_printing() function and tests message->level and console_loglevel before formatting functions in console_unlock() and console_cont_flush() are getting executed. This improves things not only for exclusive CON_PRINTBUFFER consoles, but for every console_unlock() that attempts to print a message of level above the console_loglevel.
