      sched/fair: Rewrite group_imb trigger · 6263322c
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      Change the group_imb detection from the old 'load-spike' detector to
an actual imbalance detector. We set it from the lower domain balance
pass when it fails to create a balance in the presence of task
affinities.

The advantage is that this should no longer generate the false
positive group_imb conditions generated by transient load spikes from
the normal balancing/bulk-wakeup etc. behaviour.

While I haven't actually observed those they could happen.

I'm not entirely happy with this patch; it somehow feels a little
fragile.

Nor does it solve the biggest issue I have with the group_imb code; it
it still a fragile construct in that once we 'fixed' the imbalance
we'll not detect the group_imb again and could end up re-creating it.

That said, this patch does seem to preserve behaviour for the
described degenerate case. In particular on my 2*6*2 wsm-ep:

  taskset -c 3-11 bash -c 'for ((i=0;i<9;i++)) do while :; do :; done & done'

ends up with 9 spinners, each on their own CPU; whereas if you disable
the group_imb code that typically doesn't happen (you'll get one pair
sharing a CPU most of the time).

      cgroup: s/cgroup_subsys_state/cgroup_css/ s/task_subsys_state/task_css/ · 8af01f56
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      The names of the two struct cgroup_subsys_state accessors -
cgroup_subsys_state() and task_subsys_state() - are somewhat awkward.
The former clashes with the type name and the latter doesn't even
indicate it's somehow related to cgroup.

We're about to revamp large portion of cgroup API, so, let's rename
them so that they're less awkward.  Most per-controller usages of the
accessors are localized in accessor wrappers and given the amount of
scheduled changes, this isn't gonna add any noticeable headache.

Rename cgroup_subsys_state() to cgroup_css() and task_subsys_state()
to task_css().  This patch is pure rename.

      sched: Micro-optimize the smart wake-affine logic · 7d9ffa89
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      Smart wake-affine is using node-size as the factor currently, but the overhead
of the mask operation is high.

Thus, this patch introduce the 'sd_llc_size' percpu variable, which will record
the highest cache-share domain size, and make it to be the new factor, in order
to reduce the overhead and make it more reasonable.

      sched: Move h_load calculation to task_h_load() · 68520796
      由 Vladimir Davydov 提交于 
      The bad thing about update_h_load(), which computes hierarchical load
factor for task groups, is that it is called for each task group in the
system before every load balancer run, and since rebalance can be
triggered very often, this function can eat really a lot of cpu time if
there are many cpu cgroups in the system.

Although the situation was improved significantly by commit a35b6466
('sched, cgroup: Reduce rq->lock hold times for large cgroup
hierarchies'), the problem still can arise under some kinds of loads,
e.g. when cpus are switching from idle to busy and back very frequently.

For instance, when I start 1000 of processes that wake up every
millisecond on my 8 cpus host, 'top' and 'perf top' show:

Cpu(s): 17.8%us, 24.3%sy,  0.0%ni, 57.9%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si
Events: 243K cycles
  7.57%  [kernel]               [k] __schedule
  7.08%  [kernel]               [k] timerqueue_add
  6.13%  libc-2.12.so           [.] usleep

Then if I create 10000 *idle* cpu cgroups (no processes in them), cpu
usage increases significantly although the 'wakers' are still executing
in the root cpu cgroup:

Cpu(s): 19.1%us, 48.7%sy,  0.0%ni, 31.6%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.7%si
Events: 230K cycles
 24.56%  [kernel]            [k] tg_load_down
  5.76%  [kernel]            [k] __schedule

This happens because this particular kind of load triggers 'new idle'
rebalance very frequently, which requires calling update_h_load(),
which, in turn, calls tg_load_down() for every *idle* cpu cgroup even
though it is absolutely useless, because idle cpu cgroups have no tasks
to pull.

This patch tries to improve the situation by making h_load calculation
proceed only when h_load is really necessary. To achieve this, it
substitutes update_h_load() with update_cfs_rq_h_load(), which computes
h_load only for a given cfs_rq and all its ascendants, and makes the
load balancer call this function whenever it considers if a task should
be pulled, i.e. it moves h_load calculations directly to task_h_load().
For h_load of the same cfs_rq not to be updated multiple times (in case
several tasks in the same cgroup are considered during the same balance
run), the patch keeps the time of the last h_load update for each cfs_rq
and breaks calculation when it finds h_load to be uptodate.

The benefit of it is that h_load is computed only for those cfs_rq's,
which really need it, in particular all idle task groups are skipped.
Although this, in fact, moves h_load calculation under rq lock, it
should not affect latency much, because the amount of work done under rq
lock while trying to pull tasks is limited by sched_nr_migrate.

After the patch applied with the setup described above (1000 wakers in
the root cgroup and 10000 idle cgroups), I get:

Cpu(s): 16.9%us, 24.8%sy,  0.0%ni, 58.4%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si

      sched: Keep at least 1 tick per second for active dynticks tasks · 265f22a9
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      The scheduler doesn't yet fully support environments
with a single task running without a periodic tick.

In order to ensure we still maintain the duties of scheduler_tick(),
keep at least 1 tick per second.

This makes sure that we keep the progression of various scheduler
accounting and background maintainance even with a very low granularity.
Examples include cpu load, sched average, CFS entity vruntime,
avenrun and events such as load balancing, amongst other details
handled in sched_class::task_tick().

This limitation will be removed in the future once we get
these individual items to work in full dynticks CPUs.

      sched: Fix init NOHZ_IDLE flag · 25f55d9d
      由 Vincent Guittot 提交于 
      On my SMP platform which is made of 5 cores in 2 clusters, I
have the nr_busy_cpu field of sched_group_power struct that is
not null when the platform is fully idle - which makes the
scheduler unhappy.

The root cause is:

During the boot sequence, some CPUs reach the idle loop and set
their NOHZ_IDLE flag while waiting for others CPUs to boot. But
the nr_busy_cpus field is initialized later with the assumption
that all CPUs are in the busy state whereas some CPUs have
already set their NOHZ_IDLE flag.

More generally, the NOHZ_IDLE flag must be initialized when new
sched_domains are created in order to ensure that NOHZ_IDLE and
nr_busy_cpus are aligned.

This condition can be ensured by adding a synchronize_rcu()
between the destruction of old sched_domains and the creation of
new ones so the NOHZ_IDLE flag will not be updated with old
sched_domain once it has been initialized. But this solution
introduces a additionnal latency in the rebuild sequence that is
called during cpu hotplug.

As suggested by Frederic Weisbecker, another solution is to have
the same rcu lifecycle for both NOHZ_IDLE and sched_domain
struct. A new nohz_idle field is added to sched_domain so both
status and sched_domain will share the same RCU lifecycle and
will be always synchronized. In addition, there is no more need
to protect nohz_idle against concurrent access as it is only
modified by 2 exclusive functions called by local cpu.

This solution has been prefered to the creation of a new struct
with an extra pointer indirection for sched_domain.

The synchronization is done at the cost of :

 - An additional indirection and a rcu_dereference for accessing nohz_idle.
 - We use only the nohz_idle field of the top sched_domain.

      sched: Kick full dynticks CPU that have more than one task enqueued. · 9f3660c2
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      Kick the tick on full dynticks CPUs when they get more
than one task running on their queue. This makes sure that
local fairness is maintained by the tick on the destination.

This is done regardless of these tasks' class. We should
be able to be more clever in the future depending on these. eg:
a CPU that runs a SCHED_FIFO task doesn't need to maintain
fairness against local pending tasks of the fair class.

But keep things simple for now.

      sched: Fix wrong rq's runnable_avg update with rt tasks · 642dbc39
      由 Vincent Guittot 提交于 
      The current update of the rq's load can be erroneous when RT
tasks are involved.

The update of the load of a rq that becomes idle, is done only
if the avg_idle is less than sysctl_sched_migration_cost. If RT
tasks and short idle duration alternate, the runnable_avg will
not be updated correctly and the time will be accounted as idle
time when a CFS task wakes up.

A new idle_enter function is called when the next task is the
idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as run time
in the load of the rq, whatever the average idle time is. The
function update_rq_runnable_avg is removed from idle_balance.

When a RT task is scheduled on an idle CPU, the update of the
rq's load is not done when the rq exit idle state because CFS's
functions are not called. Then, the idle_balance, which is
called just before entering the idle function, updates the rq's
load and makes the assumption that the elapsed time since the
last update, was only running time.

As a consequence, the rq's load of a CPU that only runs a
periodic RT task, is close to LOAD_AVG_MAX whatever the running
duration of the RT task is.

A new idle_exit function is called when the prev task is the
idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as idle time
in the rq's load.

      nohz: Rename CONFIG_NO_HZ to CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON · 3451d024
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout
into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick
any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick,
idle dynticks, full dynticks.

As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions
need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order
to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure.

It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to
that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code
and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now.
So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and
CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ.

On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if
CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to
enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default.

But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into
a circular dependency:

1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select
   CONFIG_NO_HZ
2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE

We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it
may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour.

So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option
which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks
(that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code)
and select it from their referring Kconfig.

Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ
to it for backward compatibility.
