Commit d670ec13 "posix-cpu-timers: Cure SMP wobbles" fixes one glibc test case in cost of breaking another one. After that commit, calling clock_nanosleep(TIMER_ABSTIME, X) and then clock_gettime(&Y) can result of Y time being smaller than X time. Reproducer/tester can be found further below, it can be compiled and ran by: gcc -o tst-cpuclock2 tst-cpuclock2.c -pthread while ./tst-cpuclock2 ; do : ; done This reproducer, when running on a buggy kernel, will complain about "clock_gettime difference too small". Issue happens because on start in thread_group_cputimer() we initialize sum_exec_runtime of cputimer with threads runtime not yet accounted and then add the threads runtime to running cputimer again on scheduler tick, making it's sum_exec_runtime bigger than actual threads runtime. KOSAKI Motohiro posted a fix for this problem, but that patch was never applied: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/26/191 . This patch takes different approach to cure the problem. It calls update_curr() when cputimer starts, that assure we will have updated stats of running threads and on the next schedule tick we will account only the runtime that elapsed from cputimer start. That also assure we have consistent state between cpu times of individual threads and cpu time of the process consisted by those threads.

While looking over the cpu-timer code I found that we appear to add the delta for the calling task twice, through: cpu_timer_sample_group() thread_group_cputimer() thread_group_cputime() times->sum_exec_runtime += task_sched_runtime(); *sample = cputime.sum_exec_runtime + task_delta_exec(); Which would make the sample run ahead, making the sleep short.

sched_move_task() is the only interface to change sched_task_group: cpu_cgrp_subsys methods and autogroup_move_group() use it. Everything is synchronized by task_rq_lock(), so cpu_cgroup_attach() is ordered with other users of sched_move_task(). This means we do no need RCU here: if we've dereferenced a tg here, the .attach method hasn't been called for it yet. Thus, we should pass "true" to task_css_check() to silence lockdep warnings.

preempt_schedule_context() does preempt_enable_notrace() at the end and this can call the same function again; exception_exit() is heavy and it is quite possible that need-resched is true again. 1. Change this code to dec preempt_count() and check need_resched() by hand. 2. As Linus suggested, we can use the PREEMPT_ACTIVE bit and avoid the enable/disable dance around __schedule(). But in this case we need to move into sched/core.c. 3. Cosmetic, but x86 forgets to declare this function. This doesn't really matter because it is only called by asm helpers, still it make sense to add the declaration into asm/preempt.h to match preempt_schedule().

The race may happen when somebody is changing task_group of a forking task. Child's cgroup is the same as parent's after dup_task_struct() (there just memory copying). Also, cfs_rq and rt_rq are the same as parent's. But if parent changes its task_group before it's called cgroup_post_fork(), we do not reflect this situation on child. Child's cfs_rq and rt_rq remain the same, while child's task_group changes in cgroup_post_fork(). To fix this we introduce fork() method, which calls sched_move_task() directly. This function changes sched_task_group on appropriate (also its logic has no problem with freshly created tasks, so we shouldn't introduce something special; we are able just to use it). Possibly, this decides the Burke Libbey's problem: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/24/456Signed-off-by: NKirill Tkhai <ktkhai@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1414405105.19914.169.camel@tkhaiSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

When a task is using SCHED_DEADLINE and the user setschedules it to a different class its sched_dl_entity static parameters are not cleaned up. This causes a bug if the user sets it back to SCHED_DEADLINE with the same parameters again. The problem resides in the check we perform at the very beginning of dl_overflow(): if (new_bw == p->dl.dl_bw) return 0; This condition is met in the case depicted above, so the function returns and dl_b->total_bw is not updated (the p->dl.dl_bw is not added to it). After this, admission control is broken. This patch fixes the thing, properly clearing static parameters for a task that ceases to use SCHED_DEADLINE.

Currently in the event of a stack overrun a call to schedule() does not check for this type of corruption. This corruption is often silent and can go unnoticed. However once the corrupted region is examined at a later stage, the outcome is undefined and often results in a sporadic page fault which cannot be handled. This patch checks for a stack overrun and takes appropriate action since the damage is already done, there is no point in continuing.

Current code can fail to migrate a waking task (silently) when TTWU_QUEUE is enabled. When a task is waking, it is pending on the wake_list of the rq, but it is not queued (task->on_rq == 0). In this case, set_cpus_allowed_ptr() and __migrate_task() will not migrate it because its invisible to them. This behavior is incorrect, because the task has been already woken, it will be running on the wrong CPU without correct placement until the next wake-up or update for cpus_allowed. To fix this problem, we need to finish the wakeup (so they appear on the runqueue) before we migrate them. Reported-by: NSasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Reported-by: NJason J.

An overrun could happen in function start_hrtick_dl() when a task with SCHED_DEADLINE runs in the microseconds range. For example, if a task with SCHED_DEADLINE has the following parameters: Task runtime deadline period P1 200us 500us 500us The deadline and period from task P1 are less than 1ms. In order to achieve microsecond precision, we need to enable HRTICK feature by the next command: PC#echo "HRTICK" > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features PC#trace-cmd record -e sched_switch & PC#./schedtool -E -t 200000:500000:500000 -e ./test The binary test is in an endless while(1) loop here. Some pieces of trace.dat are as follows: <idle>-0 157.603157: sched_switch: :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test test-2481 157.603203: sched_switch: 2481:R ==> 0:120: swapper/2 <idle>-0 157.605657: sched_switch: :R ==> 2481:4294967295: test test-2481 157.608183: sched_switch: 2481:R ==> 2483:120: trace-cmd trace-cmd-2483 157.609656: sched_switch:2483:R==>2481:4294967295: test We can get the runtime of P1 from the information above: runtime = 157.608183 - 157.605657 runtime = 0.002526(2.526ms) The correct runtime should be less than or equal to 200us at some point. The problem is caused by a conditional judgment "delta > 10000" in function start_hrtick_dl(). Because no hrtimer start up to control the rest of runtime when the reset of runtime is less than 10us. So the process will continue to run until tick-period is coming. Move the code with the limit of the least time slice from hrtick_start_fair() to hrtick_start() because the EDF schedule class also needs this function in start_hrtick_dl(). To fix this problem, we call hrtimer_start() unconditionally in start_hrtick_dl(), and make sure the scheduling slice won't be smaller than 10us in hrtimer_start().

Avoid double_rq_lock() and use TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING for __migrate_task(). The advantage is (obviously) not holding two rq->lock's at the same time and thereby increasing parallelism. The important point to note is that because we acquire dst->lock immediately after releasing src->lock the potential wait time of task_rq_lock() callers on TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING is not longer than it would have been in the double rq lock scenario.

This is a new p->on_rq state which will be used to indicate that a task is in a process of migrating between two RQs. It allows to get rid of double_rq_lock(), which we used to use to change a rq of a queued task before. Let's consider an example. To move a task between src_rq and dst_rq we will do the following: raw_spin_lock(&src_rq->lock); /* p is a task which is queued on src_rq */ p = ...; dequeue_task(src_rq, p, 0); p->on_rq = TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING; set_task_cpu(p, dst_cpu); raw_spin_unlock(&src_rq->lock); /* * Both RQs are unlocked here. * Task p is dequeued from src_rq * but its on_rq value is not zero. */ raw_spin_lock(&dst_rq->lock); p->on_rq = TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED; enqueue_task(dst_rq, p, 0); raw_spin_unlock(&dst_rq->lock); While p->on_rq is TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING, task is considered as "migrating", and other parallel scheduler actions with it are not available to parallel callers. The parallel caller is spining till migration is completed. The unavailable actions are changing of cpu affinity, changing of priority etc, in other words all the functionality which used to require task_rq(p)->lock before (and related to the task). To implement TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING support we primarily are using the following fact. Most of scheduler users (from which we are protecting a migrating task) use task_rq_lock() and __task_rq_lock() to get the lock of task_rq(p). These primitives know that task's cpu may change, and they are spining while the lock of the right RQ is not held. We add one more condition into them, so they will be also spinning until the migration is finished.

The scheduler uses policy == -1 to preserve the current policy state to implement sched_setparam(). But, as (int) -1 is equals to 0xffffffff, it's matching the if (policy & SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK) on _sched_setscheduler(). This match changes the policy value to an invalid value, breaking the sched_setparam() syscall. This patch checks policy == -1 before check the SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag. The following program shows the bug: int main(void) { struct sched_param param = { .sched_priority = 5, }; sched_setscheduler(0, SCHED_FIFO, ¶m); param.sched_priority = 1; sched_setparam(0, ¶m); param.sched_priority = 0; sched_getparam(0, ¶m); if (param.sched_priority != 1) printf("failed priority setting (found %d instead of 1)\n", param.sched_priority); else printf("priority setting fine\n"); } Signed-off-by: NDaniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.14+ Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 7479f3c9 "sched: Move SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK into attr::sched_flags" Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/9ebe0566a08dbbb3999759d3f20d6004bb2dbcfa.1406079891.git.bristot@redhat.comSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Currently, cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes is used for both the unified default hierarchy and legacy ones and subsystems can mark each file with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE if it has to appear only on one of them. This is quite hairy and error-prone. Also, we may end up exposing interface files to the default hierarchy without thinking it through. cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype arrays and apply each only on the hierarchies of the matching type. This will allow organizing cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems to scrutinize the interface which is being exposed in the new default hierarchy. In preparation, this patch renames cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes to cgroup_subsys->legacy_cftypes. This patch is pure rename.

We kill rq->rd on the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage: cpuset_cpu_inactive -> cpuset_update_active_cpus -> partition_sched_domains -> -> cpu_attach_domain -> rq_attach_root -> set_rq_offline This unthrottles all throttled cfs_rqs. But the cpu is still able to call schedule() till take_cpu_down->__cpu_disable() is called from stop_machine. This case the tasks from just unthrottled cfs_rqs are pickable in a standard scheduler way, and they are picked by dying cpu. The cfs_rqs becomes throttled again, and migrate_tasks() in migration_call skips their tasks (one more unthrottle in migrate_tasks()->CPU_DYING does not happen, because rq->rd is already NULL). Patch sets runtime_enabled to zero. This guarantees, the runtime is not accounted, and the cfs_rqs won't exceed given cfs_rq->runtime_remaining = 1, and tasks will be pickable in migrate_tasks(). runtime_enabled is recalculated again when rq becomes online again. Ben Segall also noticed, we always enable runtime in tg_set_cfs_bandwidth(). Actually, we should do that for online cpus only. To prevent races with unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs() we take get_online_cpus() lock.

Commit ac1bea85 (Make cond_resched() report RCU quiescent states) fixed a problem where a CPU looping in the kernel with but one runnable task would give RCU CPU stall warnings, even if the in-kernel loop contained cond_resched() calls. Unfortunately, in so doing, it introduced performance regressions in Anton Blanchard's will-it-scale "open1" test. The problem appears to be not so much the increased cond_resched() path length as an increase in the rate at which grace periods complete, which increased per-update grace-period overhead. This commit takes a different approach to fixing this bug, mainly by moving the RCU-visible quiescent state from cond_resched() to rcu_note_context_switch(), and by further reducing the check to a simple non-zero test of a single per-CPU variable. However, this approach requires that the force-quiescent-state processing send resched IPIs to the offending CPUs. These will be sent only once the grace period has reached an age specified by the boot/sysfs parameter rcutree.jiffies_till_sched_qs, or once the grace period reaches an age halfway to the point at which RCU CPU stall warnings will be emitted, whichever comes first.
