This reverts commit 24b91e36 and commit 7bdb59f1 ("tick/nohz: Fix possible missing clock reprog after tick soft restart") that depends on it, Pavel reports that it causes occasional boot hangs for him that seem to depend on just how the machine was booted. In particular, his machine hangs at around the PCI fixups of the EHCI USB host controller, but only hangs from cold boot, not from a warm boot. Thomas Gleixner suspecs it's a CPU hotplug interaction, particularly since Pavel also saw suspend/resume issues that seem to be related. We're reverting for now while trying to figure out the root cause.

ts->next_tick keeps track of the next tick deadline in order to optimize clock programmation on irq exit and avoid redundant clock device writes. Now if ts->next_tick missed an update, we may spuriously miss a clock reprog later as the nohz code is fooled by an obsolete next_tick value. This is what happens here on a specific path: when we observe an expired timer from the nohz update code on irq exit, we perform a soft tick restart which simply fires the closest possible tick without actually exiting the nohz mode and restoring a periodic state. But we forget to update ts->next_tick accordingly. As a result, after the next tick resulting from such soft tick restart, the nohz code sees a stale value on ts->next_tick which doesn't match the clock deadline that just expired. If that obsolete ts->next_tick value happens to collide with the actual next tick deadline to be scheduled, we may spuriously bypass the clock reprogramming. In the worst case, the tick may never fire again. Fix this with a ts->next_tick reset on soft tick restart.

When the tick is stopped and an interrupt occurs afterward, we check on that interrupt exit if the next tick needs to be rescheduled. If it doesn't need any update, we don't want to do anything. In order to check if the tick needs an update, we compare it against the clockevent device deadline. Now that's a problem because the clockevent device is at a lower level than the tick itself if it is implemented on top of hrtimer. Every hrtimer share this clockevent device. So comparing the next tick deadline against the clockevent device deadline is wrong because the device may be programmed for another hrtimer whose deadline collides with the tick. As a result we may end up not reprogramming the tick accidentally. In a worst case scenario under full dynticks mode, the tick stops firing as it is supposed to every 1hz, leaving /proc/stat stalled: Task in a full dynticks CPU ---------------------------- * hrtimer A is queued 2 seconds ahead * the tick is stopped, scheduled 1 second ahead * tick fires 1 second later * on tick exit, nohz schedules the tick 1 second ahead but sees the clockevent device is already programmed to that deadline, fooled by hrtimer A, the tick isn't rescheduled. * hrtimer A is cancelled before its deadline * tick never fires again until an interrupt happens... In order to fix this, store the next tick deadline to the tick_sched local structure and reuse that value later to check whether we need to reprogram the clock after an interrupt. On the other hand, ts->sleep_length still wants to know about the next clock event and not just the tick, so we want to improve the related comment to avoid confusion.

ktime is a union because the initial implementation stored the time in scalar nanoseconds on 64 bit machine and in a endianess optimized timespec variant for 32bit machines. The Y2038 cleanup removed the timespec variant and switched everything to scalar nanoseconds. The union remained, but become completely pointless. Get rid of the union and just keep ktime_t as simple typedef of type s64. The conversion was done with coccinelle and some manual mopping up.

tick_nohz_start_idle is called before checking whether the idle tick can be stopped. If the tick cannot be stopped, calling tick_nohz_start_idle() is pointless and just wasting CPU cycles. Only invoke tick_nohz_start_idle() when can_stop_idle_tick() returns true.

Ticks can happen while the CPU is in dynticks-idle or dynticks-singletask mode. In fact "nohz" or "dynticks" only mean that we exit the periodic mode and we try to minimize the ticks as much as possible. The nohz subsystem uses a confusing terminology with the internal state "ts->tick_stopped" which is also available through its public interface with tick_nohz_tick_stopped(). This is a misnomer as the tick is instead reduced with the best effort rather than stopped. In the best case the tick can indeed be actually stopped but there is no guarantee about that. If a timer needs to fire one second later, a tick will fire while the CPU is in nohz mode and this is a very common scenario. Now this confusion happens to be a problem with CPU load updates: cpu_load_update_active() doesn't handle nohz ticks correctly because it assumes that ticks are completely stopped in nohz mode and that cpu_load_update_active() can't be called in dynticks mode. When that happens, the whole previous tickless load is ignored and the function just records the load for the current tick, ignoring potentially long idle periods behind. In order to solve this, we could account the current load for the previous nohz time but there is a risk that we account the load of a task that got freshly enqueued for the whole nohz period. So instead, lets record the dynticks load on nohz frame entry so we know what to record in case of nohz ticks, then use this record to account the tickless load on nohz ticks and nohz frame end.

The CPU load update related functions have a weak naming convention currently, starting with update_cpu_load_*() which isn't ideal as "update" is a very generic concept. Since two of these functions are public already (and a third is to come) that's enough to introduce a more conventional naming scheme.

The tick dependency mask was intially unsigned long because this is the type on which clear_bit() operates on and fetch_or() accepts it. But now that we have atomic_fetch_or(), we can instead use atomic_andnot() to clear the bit. This consolidates the type of our tick dependency mask, reduce its size on structures and benefit from possible architecture optimizations on atomic_t operations.

Instead of providing asynchronous checks for the nohz subsystem to verify sched tick dependency, migrate sched to the new mask. Everytime a task is enqueued or dequeued, we evaluate the state of the tick dependency on top of the policy of the tasks in the runqueue, by order of priority: SCHED_DEADLINE: Need the tick in order to periodically check for runtime SCHED_FIFO : Don't need the tick (no round-robin) SCHED_RR : Need the tick if more than 1 task of the same priority for round robin (simplified with checking if more than one SCHED_RR task no matter what priority). SCHED_NORMAL : Need the tick if more than 1 task for round-robin. We could optimize that further with one flag per sched policy on the tick dependency mask and perform only the checks relevant to the policy concerned by an enqueue/dequeue operation. Since the checks aren't based on the current task anymore, we could get rid of the task switch hook but it's still needed for posix cpu timers.

The tick dependency is evaluated on every IRQ and context switch. This consists is a batch of checks which determine whether it is safe to stop the tick or not. These checks are often split in many details: posix cpu timers, scheduler, sched clock, perf events.... each of which are made of smaller details: posix cpu timer involves checking process wide timers then thread wide timers. Perf involves checking freq events then more per cpu details. Checking these informations asynchronously every time we update the full dynticks state bring avoidable overhead and a messy layout. Let's introduce instead tick dependency masks: one for system wide dependency (unstable sched clock, freq based perf events), one for CPU wide dependency (sched, throttling perf events), and task/signal level dependencies (posix cpu timers). The subsystems are responsible for setting and clearing their dependency through a set of APIs that will take care of concurrent dependency mask modifications and kick targets to restart the relevant CPU tick whenever needed. This new dependency engine stays beside the old one until all subsystems having a tick dependency are converted to it.

It simplifies it and allows wide kick to be performed, even when IRQs are disabled, without an asynchronous level in the middle. This comes at a cost of some more overhead on features like perf and posix cpu timers slow-paths, which is probably not much important for nohz full users.

commit 0ff53d09 sets the next tick interrupt to the last jiffies update, i.e. in the past, because the forward operation is invoked before the set operation. There is no resulting damage (yet), but we get an extra pointless tick interrupt. Revert the order so we get the next tick interrupt in the future.

A couple of functions in kernel/time/tick-sched.c are only relevant for oneshot timer mode, i.e. when hires-timers or nohz mode are enabled. If both are disabled, we get gcc warnings about them: kernel/time/tick-sched.c:98:16: warning: 'tick_init_jiffy_update' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] static ktime_t tick_init_jiffy_update(void) ^ kernel/time/tick-sched.c:112:13: warning: 'tick_sched_do_timer' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] static void tick_sched_do_timer(ktime_t now) ^ kernel/time/tick-sched.c:134:13: warning: 'tick_sched_handle' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] static void tick_sched_handle(struct tick_sched *ts, struct pt_regs *regs) ^ This encloses the whole set of functions in an appropriate ifdef to avoid the warning and to make it clearer when they are used.

touch_softlockup_watchdog() is used to tell watchdog that scheduler stall is expected. One group of usage is from paths where the task may not be able to yield for a long time such as performing slow PIO to finicky device and coming out of suspend. The other is to account for scheduler and timer going idle. For scheduler softlockup detection, there's no reason to distinguish the two cases; however, workqueue lockup detector is planned and it can use the same signals from the former group while the latter would spuriously prevent detection. This patch introduces a new function touch_softlockup_watchdog_sched() and convert the latter group to call it instead. For now, it just calls touch_softlockup_watchdog() and there's no functional difference.

vtime_accounting_enabled() checks if vtime is running on the current CPU and is as such a misnomer. Lets rename it to a function that reflect its locality.

Usually the tick can be stopped for an idle CPU in NOHZ. However in NOHZ_FULL mode, a non-idle CPU's tick can also be stopped. However, update_cpu_load_nohz() does not consider the case a non-idle CPU's tick has been stopped at all. This patch makes the update_cpu_load_nohz() know if the calling path comes from NOHZ_FULL or idle NOHZ.

The code ensures that when nohz full is running, at least the boot CPU serves as a housekeeper and it can't be later offlined. Let's assert this assumption to make sure that we have CPUs to handle unbound jobs like workqueues and timers while nohz full CPUs run undisturbed. Also improve the comments on housekeeper offlining prevention.

Restart the tick when necessary from the irq exit path. It makes nohz full more flexible, simplify the related IPIs and doesn't bring significant overhead on irq exit. In a longer term view, it will allow us to piggyback the nohz kick on the scheduler IPI in the future instead of sending a dedicated IPI that often doubles the scheduler IPI on task wakeup. This will require more changes though including careful review of resched_curr() callers to include nohz full needs.

On nohz full early days, idle dynticks and full dynticks weren't well integrated and we couldn't risk full dynticks calls on idle without risking messing up tick idle statistics. This is why we prevented such thing to happen. Nowadays full dynticks and idle dynticks are better integrated and interact without known issue. So lets remove that.
