Create cpufreq.c under kernel/sched/ and move the cpufreq code related to the scheduler to that file and to sched.h. Redefine cpufreq_update_util() as a static inline function to avoid function calls at its call sites in the scheduler code (as suggested by Peter Zijlstra). Also move the definition of struct update_util_data and declaration of cpufreq_set_update_util_data() from include/linux/cpufreq.h to include/linux/sched.h. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Introduce a mechanism by which parts of the cpufreq subsystem ("setpolicy" drivers or the core) can register callbacks to be executed from cpufreq_update_util() which is invoked by the scheduler's update_load_avg() on CPU utilization changes. This allows the "setpolicy" drivers to dispense with their timers and do all of the computations they need and frequency/voltage adjustments in the update_load_avg() code path, among other things. The update_load_avg() changes were suggested by Peter Zijlstra. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

If a system with large number of sockets was driven to full utilization, it was found that the clock tick handling occupied a rather significant proportion of CPU time when fair group scheduling and autogroup were enabled. Running a java benchmark on a 16-socket IvyBridge-EX system, the perf profile looked like: 10.52% 0.00% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] smp_apic_timer_interrupt 9.66% 0.05% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] hrtimer_interrupt 8.65% 0.03% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] tick_sched_timer 8.56% 0.00% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] update_process_times 8.07% 0.03% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] scheduler_tick 6.91% 1.78% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] task_tick_fair 5.24% 5.04% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] update_cfs_shares In particular, the high CPU time consumed by update_cfs_shares() was mostly due to contention on the cacheline that contained the task_group's load_avg statistical counter. This cacheline may also contains variables like shares, cfs_rq & se which are accessed rather frequently during clock tick processing. This patch moves the load_avg variable into another cacheline separated from the other frequently accessed variables. It also creates a cacheline aligned kmemcache for task_group to make sure that all the allocated task_group's are cacheline aligned. By doing so, the perf profile became: 9.44% 0.00% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] smp_apic_timer_interrupt 8.74% 0.01% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] hrtimer_interrupt 7.83% 0.03% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] tick_sched_timer 7.74% 0.00% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] update_process_times 7.27% 0.03% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] scheduler_tick 5.94% 1.74% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] task_tick_fair 4.15% 3.92% java [kernel.vmlinux] [k] update_cfs_shares The %cpu time is still pretty high, but it is better than before.

When building a kernel with a gcc 6 snapshot the compiler complains about unused const static variables for prio_to_weight and prio_to_mult for multiple scheduler files (all but core.c and autogroup.c) The way the array is currently declared it will be duplicated in every scheduler file that includes sched.h, which seems rather wasteful.

The current code accounts for the time a task was absent from the fair class (per ATTACH_AGE_LOAD). However it does not work correctly when a task got migrated or moved to another cgroup while outside of the fair class. This patch tries to address that by aging on migration. We locklessly read the 'last_update_time' stamp from both the old and new cfs_rq, ages the load upto the old time, and sets it to the new time. These timestamps should in general not be more than 1 tick apart from one another, so there is a definite bound on things.

So the problem this patch is trying to address is as follows: CPU0 CPU1 context_switch(A, B) ttwu(A) LOCK A->pi_lock A->on_cpu == 0 finish_task_switch(A) prev_state = A->state <-. WMB | A->on_cpu = 0; | UNLOCK rq0->lock | | context_switch(C, A) `-- A->state = TASK_DEAD prev_state == TASK_DEAD put_task_struct(A) context_switch(A, C) finish_task_switch(A) A->state == TASK_DEAD put_task_struct(A) The argument being that the WMB will allow the load of A->state on CPU0 to cross over and observe CPU1's store of A->state, which will then result in a double-drop and use-after-free. Now the comment states (and this was true once upon a long time ago) that we need to observe A->state while holding rq->lock because that will order us against the wakeup; however the wakeup will not in fact acquire (that) rq->lock; it takes A->pi_lock these days. We can obviously fix this by upgrading the WMB to an MB, but that is expensive, so we'd rather avoid that. The alternative this patch takes is: smp_store_release(&A->on_cpu, 0), which avoids the MB on some archs, but not important ones like ARM.

Besides the existing frequency scale-invariance correction factor, apply CPU scale-invariance correction factor to utilization tracking to compensate for any differences in compute capacity. This could be due to micro-architectural differences (i.e. instructions per seconds) between cpus in HMP systems (e.g. big.LITTLE), and/or differences in the current maximum frequency supported by individual cpus in SMP systems. In the existing implementation utilization isn't comparable between cpus as it is relative to the capacity of each individual CPU. Each segment of the sched_avg.util_sum geometric series is now scaled by the CPU performance factor too so the sched_avg.util_avg of each sched entity will be invariant from the particular CPU of the HMP/SMP system on which the sched entity is scheduled. With this patch, the utilization of a CPU stays relative to the max CPU performance of the fastest CPU in the system. In contrast to utilization (sched_avg.util_sum), load (sched_avg.load_sum) should not be scaled by compute capacity. The utilization metric is based on running time which only makes sense when cpus are _not_ fully utilized (utilization cannot go beyond 100% even if more tasks are added), where load is runnable time which isn't limited by the capacity of the CPU and therefore is a better metric for overloaded scenarios. If we run two nice-0 busy loops on two cpus with different compute capacity their load should be similar since their compute demands are the same. We have to assume that the compute demand of any task running on a fully utilized CPU (no spare cycles = 100% utilization) is high and the same no matter of the compute capacity of its current CPU, hence we shouldn't scale load by CPU capacity.

Bring arch_scale_cpu_capacity() in line with the recent change of its arch_scale_freq_capacity() sibling in commit dfbca41f ("sched: Optimize freq invariant accounting") from weak function to #define to allow inlining of the function. While at it, remove the ARCH_CAPACITY sched_feature as well. With the change to #define there isn't a straightforward way to allow runtime switch between an arch implementation and the default implementation of arch_scale_cpu_capacity() using sched_feature. The default was to use the arch-specific implementation, but only the arm architecture provides one and that is essentially equivalent to the default implementation.

The cfs_rq's load_avg is composed of runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg. Before this series, sometimes the runnable_load_avg is used, and sometimes the load_avg is used. Completely replacing all uses of runnable_load_avg with load_avg may be too big a leap, i.e., the blocked_load_avg is concerned to result in overrated load. Therefore, we get runnable_load_avg back. The new cfs_rq's runnable_load_avg is improved to be updated with all of the runnable sched_eneities at the same time, so the one sched_entity updated and the others stale problem is solved.

The idea of runnable load average (let runnable time contribute to weight) was proposed by Paul Turner and Ben Segall, and it is still followed by this rewrite. This rewrite aims to solve the following issues: 1. cfs_rq's load average (namely runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg) is updated at the granularity of an entity at a time, which results in the cfs_rq's load average is stale or partially updated: at any time, only one entity is up to date, all other entities are effectively lagging behind. This is undesirable. To illustrate, if we have n runnable entities in the cfs_rq, as time elapses, they certainly become outdated: t0: cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_old, ..., en_old } and when we update: t1: update e1, then we have cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_old, ..., en_old } t2: update e2, then we have cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_new, ..., en_old } ... We solve this by combining all runnable entities' load averages together in cfs_rq's avg, and update the cfs_rq's avg as a whole. This is based on the fact that if we regard the update as a function, then: w * update(e) = update(w * e) and update(e1) + update(e2) = update(e1 + e2), then w1 * update(e1) + w2 * update(e2) = update(w1 * e1 + w2 * e2) therefore, by this rewrite, we have an entirely updated cfs_rq at the time we update it: t1: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new } t2: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new } ... 2. cfs_rq's load average is different between top rq->cfs_rq and other task_group's per CPU cfs_rqs in whether or not blocked_load_average contributes to the load. The basic idea behind runnable load average (the same for utilization) is that the blocked state is taken into account as opposed to only accounting for the currently runnable state. Therefore, the average should include both the runnable/running and blocked load averages. This rewrite does that. In addition, we also combine runnable/running and blocked averages of all entities into the cfs_rq's average, and update it together at once. This is based on the fact that: update(runnable) + update(blocked) = update(runnable + blocked) This significantly reduces the code as we don't need to separately maintain/update runnable/running load and blocked load. 3. How task_group entities' share is calculated is complex and imprecise. We reduce the complexity in this rewrite to allow a very simple rule: the task_group's load_avg is aggregated from its per CPU cfs_rqs's load_avgs. Then group entity's weight is simply proportional to its own cfs_rq's load_avg / task_group's load_avg. To illustrate, if a task_group has { cfs_rq1, cfs_rq2, ..., cfs_rqn }, then, task_group_avg = cfs_rq1_avg + cfs_rq2_avg + ... + cfs_rqn_avg, then cfs_rqx's entity's share = cfs_rqx_avg / task_group_avg * task_group's share To sum up, this rewrite in principle is equivalent to the current one, but fixes the issues described above. Turns out, it significantly reduces the code complexity and hence increases clarity and efficiency. In addition, the new averages are more smooth/continuous (no spurious spikes and valleys) and updated more consistently and quickly to reflect the load dynamics. As a result, we have less load tracking overhead, better performance, and especially better power efficiency due to more balanced load.

Commit 44dba3d5 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted. However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched don't match the actual numbers. Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too. Also couple of more modifications are added here: 1. Format changes: - Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry. - Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are displayed separately. - Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and group faults. 2. Unit changes: - p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of /proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily calculated.

In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be (re)-started when their idle condition changes. Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns, and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we end up with a 'lost' timer. The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer. Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course, that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time. Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that is undesired. The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas.

Roman reported a 3 cpu lockup scenario involving __start_cfs_bandwidth(). The more I look at that code the more I'm convinced its crack, that entire __start_cfs_bandwidth() thing is brain melting, we don't need to cancel a timer before starting it, *hrtimer_start*() will happily remove the timer for you if its still enqueued. Removing that, removes a big part of the problem, no more ugly cancel loop to get stuck in. So now, if I understand things right, the entire reason you have this cfs_b->lock guarded ->timer_active nonsense is to make sure we don't accidentally lose the timer. It appears to me that it should be possible to guarantee that same by unconditionally (re)starting the timer when !queued. Because regardless what hrtimer::function will return, if we beat it to (re)enqueue the timer, it doesn't matter. Now, because hrtimers don't come with any serialization guarantees we must ensure both handler and (re)start loop serialize their access to the hrtimer to avoid both trying to forward the timer at the same time. Update the rt bandwidth timer to match. This effectively reverts: 09dc4ab0 ("sched/fair: Fix tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() deadlock on rq->lock").

Currently the freq invariant accounting (in __update_entity_runnable_avg() and sched_rt_avg_update()) get the scale factor from a weak function call, this means that even for archs that default on their implementation the compiler cannot see into this function and optimize the extra scaling math away. This is sad, esp. since its a 64-bit multiplication which can be quite costly on some platforms. So replace the weak function with #ifdef and __always_inline goo. This is not quite as nice from an arch support PoV but should at least result in compile time errors if done wrong.

The average running time of RT tasks is used to estimate the remaining compute capacity for CFS tasks. This remaining capacity is the original capacity scaled down by a factor (aka scale_rt_capacity). This estimation of available capacity must also be invariant with frequency scaling. A frequency scaling factor is applied on the running time of the RT tasks for computing scale_rt_capacity. In sched_rt_avg_update(), we now scale the RT execution time like below: rq->rt_avg += rt_delta * arch_scale_freq_capacity() >> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT Then, scale_rt_capacity can be summarized by: scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE * available / total with available = total - rq->rt_avg This has been been optimized in current code by: scale_rt_capacity = available / (total >> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT) But we can also developed the equation like below: scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - ((rq->rt_avg << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT) / total) and we can optimize the equation by removing SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT shift in the computation of rq->rt_avg and scale_rt_capacity(). so rq->rt_avg += rt_delta * arch_scale_freq_capacity() and scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - (rq->rt_avg / total) arch_scale_frequency_capacity() will be called in the hot path of the scheduler which implies to have a short and efficient function.

Add new statistics which reflect the average time a task is running on the CPU and the sum of these running time of the tasks on a runqueue. The latter is named utilization_load_avg. This patch is based on the usage metric that was proposed in the 1st versions of the per-entity load tracking patchset by Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> but that has be removed afterwards. This version differs from the original one in the sense that it's not linked to task_group. The rq's utilization_load_avg will be used to check if a rq is overloaded or not instead of trying to compute how many tasks a group of CPUs can handle. Rename runnable_avg_period into avg_period as it is now used with both runnable_avg_sum and running_avg_sum. Add some descriptions of the variables to explain their differences.
