      [PATCH] sched: likely profiling · beed33a8
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      This likely profiling is pretty fun. I found a few possible problems
in sched.c.

This patch may be not measurable, but when I did measure long ago,
nooping (un)likely cost a couple of % on scheduler heavy benchmarks, so
it all adds up.

Tweak some branch hints:

- the 2nd 64 bits in the bitmask is likely to be populated, because it
  contains the first 28 bits (nearly 3/4) of the normal priorities.
  (ratio of 669669:691 ~= 1000:1).

- it isn't unlikely that context switching switches to another process. it
  might be very rapidly switching to and from the idle process (ratio of
  475815:419004 and 471330:423544). Let the branch predictor decide.

- preempt_enable seems to be very often called in a nested preempt_disable
  or with interrupts disabled (ratio of 3567760:87965 ~= 40:1)

      [PATCH] csa: convert CONFIG tag for extended accounting routines · 8f0ab514
      由 Jay Lan 提交于 
      There were a few accounting data/macros that are used in CSA but are #ifdef'ed
inside CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT.  This patch is to change those ifdef's from
CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT to CONFIG_TASK_XACCT.  A few defines are moved from
kernel/acct.c and include/linux/acct.h to kernel/tsacct.c and
include/linux/tsacct_kern.h.

      [PATCH] Fix longstanding load balancing bug in the scheduler · 0a2966b4
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      The scheduler will stop load balancing if the most busy processor contains
processes pinned via processor affinity.

The scheduler currently only does one search for busiest cpu.  If it cannot
pull any tasks away from the busiest cpu because they were pinned then the
scheduler goes into a corner and sulks leaving the idle processors idle.

F.e.  If you have processor 0 busy running four tasks pinned via taskset,
there are none on processor 1 and one just started two processes on
processor 2 then the scheduler will not move one of the two processes away
from processor 2.

This patch fixes that issue by forcing the scheduler to come out of its
corner and retrying the load balancing by considering other processors for
load balancing.

This patch was originally developed by John Hawkes and discussed at

    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113901368523205&w=2.

I have removed extraneous material and gone back to equipping struct rq
with the cpu the queue is associated with since this makes the patch much
easier and it is likely that others in the future will have the same
difficulty of figuring out which processor owns which runqueue.

The overhead added through these patches is a single word on the stack if
the kernel is configured to support 32 cpus or less (32 bit).  For 32 bit
environments the maximum number of cpus that can be configued is 255 which
would result in the use of 32 bytes additional on the stack.  On IA64 up to
1k cpus can be configured which will result in the use of 128 additional
bytes on the stack.  The maximum additional cache footprint is one
cacheline.  Typically memory use will be much less than a cacheline and the
additional cpumask will be placed on the stack in a cacheline that already
contains other local variable.
