      sched: Fix SCHED_MC regression caused by change in sched cpu_power · dd5feea1
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      On platforms like dual socket quad-core platform, the scheduler load
balancer is not detecting the load imbalances in certain scenarios. This
is leading to scenarios like where one socket is completely busy (with
all the 4 cores running with 4 tasks) and leaving another socket
completely idle. This causes performance issues as those 4 tasks share
the memory controller, last-level cache bandwidth etc. Also we won't be
taking advantage of turbo-mode as much as we would like, etc.

Some of the comparisons in the scheduler load balancing code are
comparing the "weighted cpu load that is scaled wrt sched_group's
cpu_power" with the "weighted average load per task that is not scaled
wrt sched_group's cpu_power". While this has probably been broken for a
longer time (for multi socket numa nodes etc), the problem got aggrevated
via this recent change:

 |	sched: Restore __cpu_power to a straight sum of power
 |

Also with this change, the sched group cpu power alone no longer reflects
the group capacity that is needed to implement MC, MT performance
(default) and power-savings (user-selectable) policies.

We need to use the computed group capacity (sgs.group_capacity, that is
computed using the SD_PREFER_SIBLING logic in update_sd_lb_stats()) to
find out if the group with the max load is above its capacity and how
much load to move etc.

      sched: Don't use possibly stale sched_class · 83ab0aa0
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      setscheduler() saves task->sched_class outside of the rq->lock held
region for a check after the setscheduler changes have become
effective. That might result in checking a stale value.

rtmutex_setprio() has the same problem, though it is protected by
p->pi_lock against setscheduler(), but for correctness sake (and to
avoid bad examples) it needs to be fixed as well.

Retrieve task->sched_class inside of the rq->lock held region.

      sched: Fix race between ttwu() and task_rq_lock() · 0970d299
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      Thomas found that due to ttwu() changing a task's cpu without holding
the rq->lock, task_rq_lock() might end up locking the wrong rq.

Avoid this by serializing against TASK_WAKING.

      sched: Fix SMT scheduler regression in find_busiest_queue() · 9000f05c
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      Fix a SMT scheduler performance regression that is leading to a scenario
where SMT threads in one core are completely idle while both the SMT threads
in another core (on the same socket) are busy.

This is caused by this commit (with the problematic code highlighted)

   commit bdb94aa5

   sched: Try to deal with low capacity

   @@ -4203,15 +4223,18 @@ find_busiest_queue()
   ...
	for_each_cpu(i, sched_group_cpus(group)) {
   +	unsigned long power = power_of(i);

   ...

   -	wl = weighted_cpuload(i);
   +	wl = weighted_cpuload(i) * SCHED_LOAD_SCALE;
   +	wl /= power;

   -	if (rq->nr_running == 1 && wl > imbalance)
   +	if (capacity && rq->nr_running == 1 && wl > imbalance)
		continue;

On a SMT system, power of the HT logical cpu will be 589 and
the scheduler load imbalance (for scenarios like the one mentioned above)
can be approximately 1024 (SCHED_LOAD_SCALE). The above change of scaling
the weighted load with the power will result in "wl > imbalance" and
ultimately resulting in find_busiest_queue() return NULL, causing
load_balance() to think that the load is well balanced. But infact
one of the tasks can be moved to the idle core for optimal performance.

We don't need to use the weighted load (wl) scaled by the cpu power to
compare with  imabalance. In that condition, we already know there is only a
single task "rq->nr_running == 1" and the comparison between imbalance,
wl is to make sure that we select the correct priority thread which matches
imbalance. So we really need to compare the imabalnce with the original
weighted load of the cpu and not the scaled load.

But in other conditions where we want the most hammered(busiest) cpu, we can
use scaled load to ensure that we consider the cpu power in addition to the
actual load on that cpu, so that we can move the load away from the
guy that is getting most hammered with respect to the actual capacity,
as compared with the rest of the cpu's in that busiest group.

Fix it.
