      sched/deadline: Add bandwidth management for SCHED_DEADLINE tasks · 332ac17e
      Dario Faggioli 提交于
      In order of deadline scheduling to be effective and useful, it is
      important that some method of having the allocation of the available
      CPU bandwidth to tasks and task groups under control.
      This is usually called "admission control" and if it is not performed
      at all, no guarantee can be given on the actual scheduling of the
      -deadline tasks.
      
      Since when RT-throttling has been introduced each task group have a
      bandwidth associated to itself, calculated as a certain amount of
      runtime over a period. Moreover, to make it possible to manipulate
      such bandwidth, readable/writable controls have been added to both
      procfs (for system wide settings) and cgroupfs (for per-group
      settings).
      
      Therefore, the same interface is being used for controlling the
      bandwidth distrubution to -deadline tasks and task groups, i.e.,
      new controls but with similar names, equivalent meaning and with
      the same usage paradigm are added.
      
      However, more discussion is needed in order to figure out how
      we want to manage SCHED_DEADLINE bandwidth at the task group level.
      Therefore, this patch adds a less sophisticated, but actually
      very sensible, mechanism to ensure that a certain utilization
      cap is not overcome per each root_domain (the single rq for !SMP
      configurations).
      
      Another main difference between deadline bandwidth management and
      RT-throttling is that -deadline tasks have bandwidth on their own
      (while -rt ones doesn't!), and thus we don't need an higher level
      throttling mechanism to enforce the desired bandwidth.
      
      This patch, therefore:
      
       - adds system wide deadline bandwidth management by means of:
          * /proc/sys/kernel/sched_dl_runtime_us,
          * /proc/sys/kernel/sched_dl_period_us,
         that determine (i.e., runtime / period) the total bandwidth
         available on each CPU of each root_domain for -deadline tasks;
      
       - couples the RT and deadline bandwidth management, i.e., enforces
         that the sum of how much bandwidth is being devoted to -rt
         -deadline tasks to stay below 100%.
      
      This means that, for a root_domain comprising M CPUs, -deadline tasks
      can be created until the sum of their bandwidths stay below:
      
          M * (sched_dl_runtime_us / sched_dl_period_us)
      
      It is also possible to disable this bandwidth management logic, and
      be thus free of oversubscribing the system up to any arbitrary level.

      sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE inheritance logic · 2d3d891d
      Dario Faggioli 提交于
      Some method to deal with rt-mutexes and make sched_dl interact with
      the current PI-coded is needed, raising all but trivial issues, that
      needs (according to us) to be solved with some restructuring of
      the pi-code (i.e., going toward a proxy execution-ish implementation).
      
      This is under development, in the meanwhile, as a temporary solution,
      what this commits does is:
      
       - ensure a pi-lock owner with waiters is never throttled down. Instead,
         when it runs out of runtime, it immediately gets replenished and it's
         deadline is postponed;
      
       - the scheduling parameters (relative deadline and default runtime)
         used for that replenishments --during the whole period it holds the
         pi-lock-- are the ones of the waiting task with earliest deadline.
      
      Acting this way, we provide some kind of boosting to the lock-owner,
      still by using the existing (actually, slightly modified by the previous
      commit) pi-architecture.
      
      We would stress the fact that this is only a surely needed, all but
      clean solution to the problem. In the end it's only a way to re-start
      discussion within the community. So, as always, comments, ideas, rants,
      etc.. are welcome! :-)

      rtmutex: Turn the plist into an rb-tree · fb00aca4
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Turn the pi-chains from plist to rb-tree, in the rt_mutex code,
      and provide a proper comparison function for -deadline and
      -priority tasks.
      
      This is done mainly because:
       - classical prio field of the plist is just an int, which might
         not be enough for representing a deadline;
       - manipulating such a list would become O(nr_deadline_tasks),
         which might be to much, as the number of -deadline task increases.
      
      Therefore, an rb-tree is used, and tasks are queued in it according
      to the following logic:
       - among two -priority (i.e., SCHED_BATCH/OTHER/RR/FIFO) tasks, the
         one with the higher (lower, actually!) prio wins;
       - among a -priority and a -deadline task, the latter always wins;
       - among two -deadline tasks, the one with the earliest deadline
         wins.
      
      Queueing and dequeueing functions are changed accordingly, for both
      the list of a task's pi-waiters and the list of tasks blocked on
      a pi-lock.

      sched/deadline: Add period support for SCHED_DEADLINE tasks · 755378a4
      Harald Gustafsson 提交于
      Make it possible to specify a period (different or equal than
      deadline) for -deadline tasks. Relative deadlines (D_i) are used on
      task arrivals to generate new scheduling (absolute) deadlines as "d =
      t + D_i", and periods (P_i) to postpone the scheduling deadlines as "d
      = d + P_i" when the budget is zero.
      
      This is in general useful to model (and schedule) tasks that have slow
      activation rates (long periods), but have to be scheduled soon once
      activated (short deadlines).

      sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE SMP-related data structures & logic · 1baca4ce
      Juri Lelli 提交于
      Introduces data structures relevant for implementing dynamic
      migration of -deadline tasks and the logic for checking if
      runqueues are overloaded with -deadline tasks and for choosing
      where a task should migrate, when it is the case.
      
      Adds also dynamic migrations to SCHED_DEADLINE, so that tasks can
      be moved among CPUs when necessary. It is also possible to bind a
      task to a (set of) CPU(s), thus restricting its capability of
      migrating, or forbidding migrations at all.
      
      The very same approach used in sched_rt is utilised:
       - -deadline tasks are kept into CPU-specific runqueues,
       - -deadline tasks are migrated among runqueues to achieve the
         following:
          * on an M-CPU system the M earliest deadline ready tasks
            are always running;
          * affinity/cpusets settings of all the -deadline tasks is
            always respected.
      
      Therefore, this very special form of "load balancing" is done with
      an active method, i.e., the scheduler pushes or pulls tasks between
      runqueues when they are woken up and/or (de)scheduled.
      IOW, every time a preemption occurs, the descheduled task might be sent
      to some other CPU (depending on its deadline) to continue executing
      (push). On the other hand, every time a CPU becomes idle, it might pull
      the second earliest deadline ready task from some other CPU.
      
      To enforce this, a pull operation is always attempted before taking any
      scheduling decision (pre_schedule()), as well as a push one after each
      scheduling decision (post_schedule()). In addition, when a task arrives
      or wakes up, the best CPU where to resume it is selected taking into
      account its affinity mask, the system topology, but also its deadline.
      E.g., from the scheduling point of view, the best CPU where to wake
      up (and also where to push) a task is the one which is running the task
      with the latest deadline among the M executing ones.
      
      In order to facilitate these decisions, per-runqueue "caching" of the
      deadlines of the currently running and of the first ready task is used.
      Queued but not running tasks are also parked in another rb-tree to
      speed-up pushes.

      sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE structures & implementation · aab03e05
      Dario Faggioli 提交于
      Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for
      SCHED_DEADLINE implementation.
      
      Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their
      initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy
      are also added where they are needed.
      
      Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called
      SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline
      First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called
      Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate
      the behaviour of tasks between each other.
      
      The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase
      (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The
      expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's
      runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed
      is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline
      is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an
      instance) activates plus the relative deadline.
      
      The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute
      deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each
      task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline
      length time interval, avoiding any interference between different
      tasks (bandwidth isolation).
      Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with
      the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new
      policy.
      
      To summarize, this patch:
       - introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed;
       - implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new
         scheduling class file;
       - provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and
         the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl
         and the other existing scheduling classes.

      sched: Add new scheduler syscalls to support an extended scheduling parameters ABI · d50dde5a
      Dario Faggioli 提交于
      Add the syscalls needed for supporting scheduling algorithms
      with extended scheduling parameters (e.g., SCHED_DEADLINE).
      
      In general, it makes possible to specify a periodic/sporadic task,
      that executes for a given amount of runtime at each instance, and is
      scheduled according to the urgency of their own timing constraints,
      i.e.:
      
       - a (maximum/typical) instance execution time,
       - a minimum interval between consecutive instances,
       - a time constraint by which each instance must be completed.
      
      Thus, both the data structure that holds the scheduling parameters of
      the tasks and the system calls dealing with it must be extended.
      Unfortunately, modifying the existing struct sched_param would break
      the ABI and result in potentially serious compatibility issues with
      legacy binaries.
      
      For these reasons, this patch:
      
       - defines the new struct sched_attr, containing all the fields
         that are necessary for specifying a task in the computational
         model described above;
      
       - defines and implements the new scheduling related syscalls that
         manipulate it, i.e., sched_setattr() and sched_getattr().
      
      Syscalls are introduced for x86 (32 and 64 bits) and ARM only, as a
      proof of concept and for developing and testing purposes. Making them
      available on other architectures is straightforward.
      
      Since no "user" for these new parameters is introduced in this patch,
      the implementation of the new system calls is just identical to their
      already existing counterpart. Future patches that implement scheduling
      policies able to exploit the new data structure must also take care of
      modifying the sched_*attr() calls accordingly with their own purposes.

      sched/fair: Rework sched_fair time accounting · 9dbdb155
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Christian suffers from a bad BIOS that wrecks his i5's TSC sync. This
      results in him occasionally seeing time going backwards - which
      crashes the scheduler ...
      
      Most of our time accounting can actually handle that except the most
      common one; the tick time update of sched_fair.
      
      There is a further problem with that code; previously we assumed that
      because we get a tick every TICK_NSEC our time delta could never
      exceed 32bits and math was simpler.
      
      However, ever since Frederic managed to get NO_HZ_FULL merged; this is
      no longer the case since now a task can run for a long time indeed
      without getting a tick. It only takes about ~4.2 seconds to overflow
      our u32 in nanoseconds.
      
      This means we not only need to better deal with time going backwards;
      but also means we need to be able to deal with large deltas.
      
      This patch reworks the entire code and uses mul_u64_u32_shr() as
      proposed by Andy a long while ago.
      
      We express our virtual time scale factor in a u32 multiplier and shift
      right and the 32bit mul_u64_u32_shr() implementation reduces to a
      single 32x32->64 multiply if the time delta is still short (common
      case).
      
      For 64bit a 64x64->128 multiply can be used if ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128.

      sched: Remove PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED from generic code · ba1f14fb
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      While hunting a preemption issue with Alexander, Ben noticed that the
      currently generic PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED stuff is horribly broken for
      load-store architectures.
      
      We currently rely on the IPI to fold TIF_NEED_RESCHED into
      PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED, but when this IPI lands while we already have
      a load for the preempt-count but before the store, the store will erase
      the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED change.
      
      The current preempt-count only works on load-store archs because
      interrupts are assumed to be completely balanced wrt their preempt_count
      fiddling; the previous preempt_count load will match the preempt_count
      state after the interrupt and therefore nothing gets lost.
      
      This patch removes the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED usage from generic code and
      pushes it into x86 arch code; the generic code goes back to relying on
      TIF_NEED_RESCHED.
      
      Boot tested on x86_64 and compile tested on ppc64.

          if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ }
              or
          if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ }
      
      Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a
      user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to
      that user.  (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.)
      
      The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(),
      which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

      sched: remove ARCH specific fpu_counter from task_struct · 27f69e68
      Vineet Gupta 提交于
      fpu_counter in task_struct was used only by sh/x86.  Both of these now
      carry it in ARCH specific thread_struct, hence this can now be removed
      from generic task_struct, shrinking it slightly for other arches.

      mm: memcg: handle non-error OOM situations more gracefully · 49426420
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      Commit 3812c8c8 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full
      callstack on OOM") assumed that only a few places that can trigger a
      memcg OOM situation do not return VM_FAULT_OOM, like optional page cache
      readahead.  But there are many more and it's impractical to annotate
      them all.
      
      First of all, we don't want to invoke the OOM killer when the failed
      allocation is gracefully handled, so defer the actual kill to the end of
      the fault handling as well.  This simplifies the code quite a bit for
      added bonus.
      
      Second, since a failed allocation might not be the abrupt end of the
      fault, the memcg OOM handler needs to be re-entrant until the fault
      finishes for subsequent allocation attempts.  If an allocation is
      attempted after the task already OOMed, allow it to bypass the limit so
      that it can quickly finish the fault and invoke the OOM killer.
