      sched: Fix interactivity bug by charging unaccounted run-time on entity re-weight · 19e5eebb
      由 Paul Turner 提交于 
      Mike Galbraith reported poor interactivity[*] when the new shares distribution
code was combined with autogroups.

The root cause turns out to be a mis-ordering of accounting accrued execution
time and shares updates.  Since update_curr() is issued hierarchically,
updating the parent entity weights to reflect child enqueue/dequeue results in
the parent's unaccounted execution time then being accrued (vs vruntime) at the
new weight as opposed to the weight present at accumulation.

While this doesn't have much effect on processes with timeslices that cross a
tick, it is particularly problematic for an interactive process (e.g. Xorg)
which incurs many (tiny) timeslices.  In this scenario almost all updates are
at dequeue which can result in significant fairness perturbation (especially if
it is the only thread, resulting in potential {tg->shares, MIN_SHARES}
transitions).

Correct this by ensuring unaccounted time is accumulated prior to manipulating
an entity's weight.

      sched: Move periodic share updates to entity_tick() · 43365bd7
      由 Paul Turner 提交于 
      Long running entities that do not block (dequeue) require periodic updates to
maintain accurate share values.  (Note: group entities with several threads are
quite likely to be non-blocking in many circumstances).

By virtue of being long-running however, we will see entity ticks (otherwise
the required update occurs in dequeue/put and we are done).  Thus we can move
the detection (and associated work) for these updates into the periodic path.

This restores the 'atomicity' of update_curr() with respect to accounting.

      sched: Use group weight, idle cpu metrics to fix imbalances during idle · aae6d3dd
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      Currently we consider a sched domain to be well balanced when the imbalance
is less than the domain's imablance_pct. As the number of cores and threads
are increasing, current values of imbalance_pct (for example 25% for a
NUMA domain) are not enough to detect imbalances like:

a) On a WSM-EP system (two sockets, each having 6 cores and 12 logical threads),
24 cpu-hogging tasks get scheduled as 13 on one socket and 11 on another
socket. Leading to an idle HT cpu.

b) On a hypothetial 2 socket NHM-EX system (each socket having 8 cores and
16 logical threads), 16 cpu-hogging tasks can get scheduled as 9 on one
socket and 7 on another socket. Leaving one core in a socket idle
whereas in another socket we have a core having both its HT siblings busy.

While this issue can be fixed by decreasing the domain's imbalance_pct
(by making it a function of number of logical cpus in the domain), it
can potentially cause more task migrations across sched groups in an
overloaded case.

Fix this by using imbalance_pct only during newly_idle and busy
load balancing. And during idle load balancing, check if there
is an imbalance in number of idle cpu's across the busiest and this
sched_group or if the busiest group has more tasks than its weight that
the idle cpu in this_group can pull.

      sched: Remove irq time from available CPU power · aa483808
      由 Venkatesh Pallipadi 提交于 
      The idea was suggested by Peter Zijlstra here:

  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=127476934517534&w=2

irq time is technically not available to the tasks running on the CPU.
This patch removes irq time from CPU power piggybacking on
sched_rt_avg_update().

Tested this by keeping CPU X busy with a network intensive task having 75%
oa a single CPU irq processing (hard+soft) on a 4-way system. And start seven
cycle soakers on the system. Without this change, there will be two tasks on
each CPU. With this change, there is a single task on irq busy CPU X and
remaining 7 tasks are spread around among other 3 CPUs.

      sched: Do not account irq time to current task · 305e6835
      由 Venkatesh Pallipadi 提交于 
      Scheduler accounts both softirq and interrupt processing times to the
currently running task. This means, if the interrupt processing was
for some other task in the system, then the current task ends up being
penalized as it gets shorter runtime than otherwise.

Change sched task accounting to acoount only actual task time from
currently running task. Now update_curr(), modifies the delta_exec to
depend on rq->clock_task.

Note that this change only handles CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING case. We can
extend this to CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING with minimal effort. But, thats
for later.

This change will impact scheduling behavior in interrupt heavy conditions.

Tested on a 4-way system with eth0 handled by CPU 2 and a network heavy
task (nc) running on CPU 3 (and no RSS/RFS). With that I have CPU 2
spending 75%+ of its time in irq processing. CPU 3 spending around 35%
time running nc task.

Now, if I run another CPU intensive task on CPU 2, without this change
/proc/<pid>/schedstat shows 100% of time accounted to this task. With this
change, it rightly shows less than 25% accounted to this task as remaining
time is actually spent on irq processing.

      sched: Drop group_capacity to 1 only if local group has extra capacity · 75dd321d
      由 Nikhil Rao 提交于 
      When SD_PREFER_SIBLING is set on a sched domain, drop group_capacity to 1
only if the local group has extra capacity. The extra check prevents the case
where you always pull from the heaviest group when it is already under-utilized
(possible with a large weight task outweighs the tasks on the system).

For example, consider a 16-cpu quad-core quad-socket machine with MC and NUMA
scheduling domains. Let's say we spawn 15 nice0 tasks and one nice-15 task,
and each task is running on one core. In this case, we observe the following
events when balancing at the NUMA domain:

- find_busiest_group() will always pick the sched group containing the niced
  task to be the busiest group.
- find_busiest_queue() will then always pick one of the cpus running the
  nice0 task (never picks the cpu with the nice -15 task since
  weighted_cpuload > imbalance).
- The load balancer fails to migrate the task since it is the running task
  and increments sd->nr_balance_failed.
- It repeats the above steps a few more times until sd->nr_balance_failed > 5,
  at which point it kicks off the active load balancer, wakes up the migration
  thread and kicks the nice 0 task off the cpu.

The load balancer doesn't stop until we kick out all nice 0 tasks from
the sched group, leaving you with 3 idle cpus and one cpu running the
nice -15 task.

When balancing at the NUMA domain, we drop sgs.group_capacity to 1 if the child
domain (in this case MC) has SD_PREFER_SIBLING set.  Subsequent load checks are
not relevant because the niced task has a very large weight.

In this patch, we add an extra condition to the "if(prefer_sibling)" check in
update_sd_lb_stats(). We drop the capacity of a group only if the local group
has extra capacity, ie. nr_running < group_capacity. This patch preserves the
original intent of the prefer_siblings check (to spread tasks across the system
in low utilization scenarios) and fixes the case above.

It helps in the following ways:
- In low utilization cases (where nr_tasks << nr_cpus), we still drop
  group_capacity down to 1 if we prefer siblings.
- On very busy systems (where nr_tasks >> nr_cpus), sgs.nr_running will most
  likely be > sgs.group_capacity.
- When balancing large weight tasks, if the local group does not have extra
  capacity, we do not pick the group with the niced task as the busiest group.
  This prevents failed balances, active migration and the under-utilization
  described above.

      sched: Force balancing on newidle balance if local group has capacity · fab47622
      由 Nikhil Rao 提交于 
      This patch forces a load balance on a newly idle cpu when the local group has
extra capacity and the busiest group does not have any. It improves system
utilization when balancing tasks with a large weight differential.

Under certain situations, such as a niced down task (i.e. nice = -15) in the
presence of nr_cpus NICE0 tasks, the niced task lands on a sched group and
kicks away other tasks because of its large weight. This leads to sub-optimal
utilization of the machine. Even though the sched group has capacity, it does
not pull tasks because sds.this_load >> sds.max_load, and f_b_g() returns NULL.

With this patch, if the local group has extra capacity, we shortcut the checks
in f_b_g() and try to pull a task over. A sched group has extra capacity if the
group capacity is greater than the number of running tasks in that group.

Thanks to Mike Galbraith for discussions leading to this patch and for the
insight to reuse SD_NEWIDLE_BALANCE.

      When cycling through sched groups to determine the busiest group, set

fixes the case where two cpus in a group have one runnable task each, but there

unable to migrate any task from this group, and hence do not consider this
group to be imbalanced.

Here a newly created task is having its runqueue assigned.  The new task
is not yet on the tasklist, so cannot go away.  This is therefore a false
positive, suppress with an RCU read-side critical section.

      sched: Increment cache_nice_tries only on periodic lb · 58b26c4c
      由 Venkatesh Pallipadi 提交于 
      scheduler uses cache_nice_tries as an indicator to do cache_hot and
active load balance, when normal load balance fails. Currently,
this value is changed on any failed load balance attempt. That ends
up being not so nice to workloads that enter/exit idle often, as
they do more frequent new_idle balance and that pretty soon results
in cache hot tasks being pulled in.

Making the cache_nice_tries ignore failed new_idle balance seems to
make better sense. With that only the failed load balance in
periodic load balance gets accounted and the rate of accumulation
of cache_nice_tries will not depend on idle entry/exit (short
running sleep-wakeup kind of tasks). This reduces movement of
cache_hot tasks.

frequent and short wakeup-idle pattern (:2 in cpu col below refers

      There's a situation where the nohz balancer will try to wake itself:

cpu-x is idle which is also ilb_cpu
got a scheduler tick during idle
and the nohz_kick_needed() in trigger_load_balance() checks for
rq_x->nr_running which might not be zero (because of someone waking a
task on this rq etc) and this leads to the situation of the cpu-x
sending a kick to itself.

And this can cause a lockup.

Avoid this by not marking ourself eligible for kicking.

      rcu: apply RCU protection to wake_affine() · f3b577de
      由 Daniel J Blueman 提交于 
      The task_group() function returns a pointer that must be protected
by either RCU, the ->alloc_lock, or the cgroup lock (see the
rcu_dereference_check() in task_subsys_state(), which is invoked by
task_group()).  The wake_affine() function currently does none of these,
which means that a concurrent update would be within its rights to free
the structure returned by task_group().  Because wake_affine() uses this
structure only to compute load-balancing heuristics, there is no reason
to acquire either of the two locks.

Therefore, this commit introduces an RCU read-side critical section that
starts before the first call to task_group() and ends after the last use
of the "tg" pointer returned from task_group().  Thanks to Li Zefan for
pointing out the need to extend the RCU read-side critical section from
that proposed by the original patch.

      sched: Add asymmetric group packing option for sibling domain · 532cb4c4
      由 Michael Neuling 提交于 
      Check to see if the group is packed in a sched doman.

This is primarily intended to used at the sibling level.  Some cores
like POWER7 prefer to use lower numbered SMT threads.  In the case of
POWER7, it can move to lower SMT modes only when higher threads are
idle.  When in lower SMT modes, the threads will perform better since
they share less core resources.  Hence when we have idle threads, we
want them to be the higher ones.

This adds a hook into f_b_g() called check_asym_packing() to check the
packing.  This packing function is run on idle threads.  It checks to
see if the busiest CPU in this domain (core in the P7 case) has a
higher CPU number than what where the packing function is being run
on.  If it is, calculate the imbalance and return the higher busier
thread as the busiest group to f_b_g().  Here we are assuming a lower
CPU number will be equivalent to a lower SMT thread number.

It also creates a new SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to enable this feature at
any scheduler domain level.

It also creates an arch hook to enable this feature at the sibling
level.  The default function doesn't enable this feature.

Based heavily on patch from Peter Zijlstra.
