      sched/deadline: Fix lock pinning warning during CPU hotplug · c0c8c9fa
      由 Wanpeng Li 提交于 
      The following warning can be triggered by hot-unplugging the CPU
on which an active SCHED_DEADLINE task is running on:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3531 lock_release+0x690/0x6a0

As per the comment before this code, its safe to drop the RQ lock
here, and since we (potentially) change rq, unpin and repin to avoid
the splat.

      sched/cputime: Mitigate performance regression in times()/clock_gettime() · 6075620b
      由 Giovanni Gherdovich 提交于 
      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 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):

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).

    • T
      sched/deadline: Fix wrap-around in DL heap · a23eadfa
      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.

      Revert "printk: create pr_<level> functions" · a0cba217

      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:

Joe Perches says:
 "No, that is not intentional.

  The newline handling code inside vprintk_emit is a bit involved and
  for now I suggest a revert until this has all the same behavior as

      block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf · 1eff9d32
      由 Jens Axboe 提交于 
      Since commit 63a4cc24, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.

No intended functional changes in this commit.

      jump_label: remove bug.h, atomic.h dependencies for HAVE_JUMP_LABEL · 1f69bf9c
      由 Jason Baron 提交于 
      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.

      tree-wide: replace config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() · 97f2645f
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      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.

      modules: Add kernel parameter to blacklist modules · be7de5f9
      由 Prarit Bhargava 提交于 
      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.

[v2]: Rusty, use core_param() instead of __setup() which simplifies
things.

[v3]: Rusty, undo wreckage from strsep()

[v4]: Rusty, simpler version of blacklisted()

Which gives us rather useless information. Worse yet, there's some race
that causes this, and I seldom trigger it, so I have no idea what
happened.

This would not be an issue if that warning was a WARN_ON_ONCE().

      perf/core: Change log level for duration warning to KERN_INFO · 0d87d7ec
      由 David Ahern 提交于 
      When the perf interrupt handler exceeds a threshold warning messages
are displayed on console:

  [12739.31793] perf interrupt took too long (2504 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000
  [71340.165065] perf interrupt took too long (5005 > 5000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 25000

Many customers and users are confused by the message wondering if
something is wrong or they need to take action to fix a problem.
Since a user can not do anything to fix the issue, the message is really
more informational than a warning. Adjust the log level accordingly.
