      [PATCH] idle cputime accounting · 79741dd3
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      The cpu time spent by the idle process actually doing something is
      currently accounted as idle time. This is plain wrong, the architectures
      that support VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y can do better: distinguish between the
      time spent doing nothing and the time spent by idle doing work. The first
      is accounted with account_idle_time and the second with account_system_time.
      The architectures that use the account_xxx_time interface directly and not
      the account_xxx_ticks interface now need to do the check for the idle
      process in their arch code. In particular to improve the system vs true
      idle time accounting the arch code needs to measure the true idle time
      instead of just testing for the idle process.
      To improve the tick based accounting as well we would need an architecture
      primitive that can tell us if the pt_regs of the interrupted context
      points to the magic instruction that halts the cpu.
      
      In addition idle time is no more added to the stime of the idle process.
      This field now contains the system time of the idle process as it should
      be. On systems without VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING this will always be zero as
      every tick that occurs while idle is running will be accounted as idle
      time.
      
      This patch contains the necessary common code changes to be able to
      distinguish idle system time and true idle time. The architectures with
      support for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING need some changes to exploit this.

      [PATCH] fix scaled & unscaled cputime accounting · 457533a7
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      The utimescaled / stimescaled fields in the task structure and the
      global cpustat should be set on all architectures. On s390 the calls
      to account_user_time_scaled and account_system_time_scaled never have
      been added. In addition system time that is accounted as guest time
      to the user time of a process is accounted to the scaled system time
      instead of the scaled user time.
      To fix the bugs and to prevent future forgetfulness this patch merges
      account_system_time_scaled into account_system_time and
      account_user_time_scaled into account_user_time.

      (http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/linux/linux-kernel/2002-25/0687.html)
      
      "I notice that none of the current softirq routines use the data element
      passed to them."
      
      and the situation hasn't changed since them. So it appears we can safely
      remove that extra argument to save 128 (54) bytes of kernel data (text).

      NOHZ: reevaluate idle sleep length after add_timer_on() · 06d8308c
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      add_timer_on() can add a timer on a CPU which is currently in a long
      idle sleep, but the timer wheel is not reevaluated by the nohz code on
      that CPU. So a timer can be delayed for quite a long time. This
      triggered a false positive in the clocksource watchdog code.
      
      To avoid this we need to wake up the idle CPU and enforce the
      reevaluation of the timer wheel for the next timer event.
      
      Add a function, which checks a given CPU for idle state, marks the
      idle task with NEED_RESCHED and sends a reschedule IPI to notify the
      other CPU of the change in the timer wheel.
      
      Call this function from add_timer_on().

      taskstats scaled time cleanup · 06b8e878
      Michael Neuling 提交于
      This moves the ability to scale cputime into generic code.  This allows us
      to fix the issue in kernel/timer.c (noticed by Balbir) where we could only
      add an unscaled value to the scaled utime/stime.
      
      This adds a cputime_to_scaled function.  As before, the POWERPC version
      does the scaling based on the last SPURR/PURR ratio calculated.  The
      generic and s390 (only other arch to implement asm/cputime.h) versions are
      both NOPs.
      
      Also moves the SPURR and PURR snapshots closer.

      remove task_ppid_nr_ns · 84427eae
      Roland McGrath 提交于
      task_ppid_nr_ns is called in three places.  One of these should never
      have called it.  In the other two, using it broke the existing
      semantics.  This was presumably accidental.  If the function had not
      been there, it would have been much more obvious to the eye that those
      patches were changing the behavior.  We don't need this function.
      
      In task_state, the pid of the ptracer is not the ppid of the ptracer.
      
      In do_task_stat, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid.
      I also moved the call outside of lock_task_sighand, since it doesn't
      need it.
      
      In sys_getppid, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid.

      sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc · fa13a5a1
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the
      deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been
      broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in
      timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times().
      
      This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times
      that updates utime and stime into a separate function called
      account_process_tick.  If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined,
      there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that
      simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before.  If
      CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to
      implement account_process_tick.
      
      This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390
      timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when
      CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a
      suitable account_process_tick().
      
      account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument.
      Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.

      pid namespaces: changes to show virtual ids to user · b488893a
      Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
      This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where
      the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids.
      
      The idea is:
       - all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself
         or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call;
       - when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one
         should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids;
       - when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one
         should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this
         task's namespace the global one is to be used;
       - when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as
         the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.
