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.

Mike reports that since e9e9250b (sched: Scale down cpu_power due to RT tasks), wake_affine() goes funny on RT tasks due to them still having a !0 weight and wake_affine() still subtracts that from the rq weight. Since nobody should be using se->weight for RT tasks, set the value to zero. Also, since we now use ->cpu_power to normalize rq weights to account for RT cpu usage, add that factor into the imbalance computation.

Currently migration_thread is serving three purposes - migration pusher, context to execute active_load_balance() and forced context switcher for expedited RCU synchronize_sched. All three roles are hardcoded into migration_thread() and determining which job is scheduled is slightly messy. This patch kills migration_thread and replaces all three uses with cpu_stop. The three different roles of migration_thread() are splitted into three separate cpu_stop callbacks - migration_cpu_stop(), active_load_balance_cpu_stop() and synchronize_sched_expedited_cpu_stop() - and each use case now simply asks cpu_stop to execute the callback as necessary. synchronize_sched_expedited() was implemented with private preallocated resources and custom multi-cpu queueing and waiting logic, both of which are provided by cpu_stop. synchronize_sched_expedited_count is made atomic and all other shared resources along with the mutex are dropped. synchronize_sched_expedited() also implemented a check to detect cases where not all the callback got executed on their assigned cpus and fall back to synchronize_sched(). If called with cpu hotplug blocked, cpu_stop already guarantees that and the condition cannot happen; otherwise, stop_machine() would break. However, this patch preserves the paranoid check using a cpumask to record on which cpus the stopper ran so that it can serve as a bisection point if something actually goes wrong theree. Because the internal execution state is no longer visible, rcu_expedited_torture_stats() is removed. This patch also renames cpu_stop threads to from "stopper/%d" to "migration/%d". The names of these threads ultimately don't matter and there's no reason to make unnecessary userland visible changes. With this patch applied, stop_machine() and sched now share the same resources. stop_machine() is faster without wasting any resources and sched migration users are much cleaner.

Issues in the current select_idle_sibling() logic in select_task_rq_fair() in the context of a task wake-up: a) Once we select the idle sibling, we use that domain (spanning the cpu that the task is currently woken-up and the idle sibling that we found) in our wake_affine() decisions. This domain is completely different from the domain(we are supposed to use) that spans the cpu that the task currently woken-up and the cpu where the task previously ran. b) We do select_idle_sibling() check only for the cpu that the task is currently woken-up on. If select_task_rq_fair() selects the previously run cpu for waking the task, doing a select_idle_sibling() check for that cpu also helps and we don't do this currently. c) In the scenarios where the cpu that the task is woken-up is busy but with its HT siblings are idle, we are selecting the task be woken-up on the idle HT sibling instead of a core that it previously ran and currently completely idle. i.e., we are not taking decisions based on wake_affine() but directly selecting an idle sibling that can cause an imbalance at the SMT/MC level which will be later corrected by the periodic load balancer. Fix this by first going through the load imbalance calculations using wake_affine() and once we make a decision of woken-up cpu vs previously-ran cpu, then choose a possible idle sibling for waking up the task on.

In order to reduce the dependency on TASK_WAKING rework the enqueue interface to support a proper flags field. Replace the int wakeup, bool head arguments with an int flags argument and create the following flags: ENQUEUE_WAKEUP - the enqueue is a wakeup of a sleeping task, ENQUEUE_WAKING - the enqueue has relative vruntime due to having sched_class::task_waking() called, ENQUEUE_HEAD - the waking task should be places on the head of the priority queue (where appropriate). For symmetry also convert sched_class::dequeue() to a flags scheme.

Oleg noticed a few races with the TASK_WAKING usage on fork. - since TASK_WAKING is basically a spinlock, it should be IRQ safe - since we set TASK_WAKING (*) without holding rq->lock it could be there still is a rq->lock holder, thereby not actually providing full serialization. (*) in fact we clear PF_STARTING, which in effect enables TASK_WAKING. Cure the second issue by not setting TASK_WAKING in sched_fork(), but only temporarily in wake_up_new_task() while calling select_task_rq(). Cure the first by holding rq->lock around the select_task_rq() call, this will disable IRQs, this however requires that we push down the rq->lock release into select_task_rq_fair()'s cgroup stuff. Because select_task_rq_fair() still needs to drop the rq->lock we cannot fully get rid of TASK_WAKING.

Now that we no longer depend on the clock being updated prior to enqueueing on migratory wakeup, we can clean up a bit, placing calls to update_rq_clock() exactly where they are needed, ie on enqueue, dequeue and schedule events. In the case of a freshly enqueued task immediately preempting, we can skip the update during preemption, as the clock was just updated by the enqueue event. We also save an unneeded call during a migratory wakeup by not updating the previous runqueue, where update_curr() won't be invoked.

Both avg_overlap and avg_wakeup had an inherent problem in that their accuracy was detrimentally affected by cross-cpu wakeups, this because we are missing the necessary call to update_curr(). This can't be fixed without increasing overhead in our already too fat fastpath. Additionally, with recent load balancing changes making us prefer to place tasks in an idle cache domain (which is good for compute bound loads), communicating tasks suffer when a sync wakeup, which would enable affine placement, is turned into a non-sync wakeup by SYNC_LESS. With one task on the runqueue, wake_affine() rejects the affine wakeup request, leaving the unfortunate where placed, taking frequent cache misses. Remove it, and recover some fastpath cycles.

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: | | commit f93e65c1 | Author: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> | Date: Tue Sep 1 10:34:32 2009 +0200 | | 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. Reported-by: NMa Ling <ling.ma@intel.com> Initial-Analysis-by: NZhang, Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NSuresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> [ -v2: build fix ] Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # [2.6.32.x, 2.6.33.x] LKML-Reference: <1266970432.11588.22.camel@sbs-t61.sc.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

In order to remove the cfs_rq dependency from set_task_cpu() we need to ensure the task is cfs_rq invariant for all callsites. The simple approach is to substract cfs_rq->min_vruntime from se->vruntime on dequeue, and add cfs_rq->min_vruntime on enqueue. However, this has the downside of breaking FAIR_SLEEPERS since we loose the old vruntime as we only maintain the relative position. To solve this, we observe that we only migrate runnable tasks, we do this using deactivate_task(.sleep=0) and activate_task(.wakeup=0), therefore we can restrain the min_vruntime invariance to that state. The only other case is wakeup balancing, since we want to maintain the old vruntime we cannot make it relative on dequeue, but since we don't migrate inactive tasks, we can do so right before we activate it again. This is where we need the new pre-wakeup hook, we need to call this while still holding the old rq->lock. We could fold it into ->select_task_rq(), but since that has multiple callsites and would obfuscate the locking requirements, that seems like a fudge. This leaves the fork() case, simply make sure that ->task_fork() leaves the ->vruntime in a relative state. This covers all cases where set_task_cpu() gets called, and ensures it sees a relative vruntime.
