The perf_event_aux() function iterates all PMUs and all events in their respective per-CPU contexts to find the events to deliver side-band records to. For example, the brk test case in lkp triggers many mmap() operations, which, if we're also running perf, results in many perf_event_aux() invocations. If we enable uncore PMU support (even when uncore events are not used), dozens of uncore PMUs will be iterated, which can significantly decrease brk_test's throughput. For example, the brk throughput: without uncore PMUs: 2647573 ops_per_sec with uncore PMUs: 1768444 ops_per_sec ... a 33% reduction. To get at the per-CPU events that need side-band records, this patch puts these events on a per-CPU list, this avoids iterating the PMUs and any events that do not need side-band records. Per task events are unchanged to avoid extra overhead on the context switch paths.

Additionally to being able to control the system wide maximum depth via /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack, now we are able to ask for different depths per event, using perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack for that. This uses an u16 hole at the end of perf_event_attr, that, when perf_event_attr.sample_type has the PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN, if sample_max_stack is zero, means use perf_event_max_stack, otherwise it'll be bounds checked under callchain_mutex.

The perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr value includes all the entries in the ip_callchain->ip[] array, real addresses and PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc}, while what the user expects is that what is in the kernel.perf_event_max_stack sysctl or in the upcoming per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob be honoured in terms of IP addresses in the stack trace. So allocate a bunch of extra entries for contexts, and do the accounting via perf_callchain_entry_ctx struct members. A new sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts_per_stack is also introduced for investigating possible bugs in the callchain implementation by some arch.

We will use it to count how many addresses are in the entry->ip[] array, excluding PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc} entries, so that we can really return the number of entries specified by the user via the relevant sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts, or via the per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob. This way we keep the perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr meaning, that is the number of entries, be it real addresses or PERF_CONTEXT_ entries, while honouring the max_stack knobs, i.e. the end result will be max_stack entries if we have at least that many entries in a given stack trace.

The new signal_pending exit path in __rwsem_down_write_failed_common() was fingered as breaking his kernel by Tetsuo Handa. Upon inspection it was found that there are two things wrong with it; - it forgets to remove WAITING_BIAS if it leaves the list empty, or - it forgets to wake further waiters that were blocked on the now removed waiter. Especially the first issue causes new lock attempts to block and stall indefinitely, as the code assumes that pending waiters mean there is an owner that will wake when it releases the lock.

One which handles | UP/DOWN_FAILED/ONLINE and one which handles DOWN_PREPARE. | | Now look at the priorities of those callbacks: | | CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE_UP = 5 | CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE_DOWN = -5 | | So the call order on DOWN_PREPARE is: | | CB 1 | CB ... | CB workqueue_up() -> Ignores DOWN_PREPARE | CB ... | CB X ---> Fails | | So we call up to CB X with DOWN_FAILED | | CB 1 | CB ... | CB workqueue_up() -> Handles DOWN_FAILED | CB ... | CB X-1 | | So the problem is that the workqueue stuff handles DOWN_FAILED in the up | callback, while it should do it in the down callback. Which is not a good idea | either because it wants to be called early on rollback... | | Brilliant stuff, isn't it? The hotplug rework will solve this problem because | the callbacks become symetric, but for the existing mess, we need some | workaround in the workqueue code. The boot CPU handles housekeeping duty(unbound timers, workqueues, timekeeping, ...) on behalf of full dynticks CPUs. It must remain online when nohz full is enabled. There is a priority set to every notifier_blocks: workqueue_cpu_up > tick_nohz_cpu_down > workqueue_cpu_down So tick_nohz_cpu_down callback failed when down prepare cpu 0, and notifier_blocks behind tick_nohz_cpu_down will not be called any more, which leads to workers are actually not unbound. Then hotplug state machine will fallback to undo and online cpu 0 again. Workers will be rebound unconditionally even if they are not unbound and trigger the warning in this progress. This patch fix it by catching !DISASSOCIATED to avoid rebind bound workers.

When the PMU driver reports a truncated AUX record, it effectively means that there is no more usable room in the event's AUX buffer (even though there may still be some room, so that perf_aux_output_begin() doesn't take action). At this point the consumer still has to be woken up and the event has to be disabled, otherwise the event will just keep spinning between perf_aux_output_begin() and perf_aux_output_end() until its context gets unscheduled. Again, for cpu-wide events this means never, so once in this condition, they will be forever losing data. Fix this by disabling the event and waking up the consumer in case of a truncated AUX record.

Systems show a minimal load average of 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 even when they have no load at all. Uptime and /proc/loadavg on all systems with kernels released during the last five years up until kernel version 4.6-rc5, show a 5- and 15-minute minimum loadavg of 0.01 and 0.05 respectively. This should be 0.00 on idle systems, but the way the kernel calculates this value prevents it from getting lower than the mentioned values. Likewise but not as obviously noticeable, a fully loaded system with no processes waiting, shows a maximum 1/5/15 loadavg of 1.00, 0.99, 0.95 (multiplied by number of cores). Once the (old) load becomes 93 or higher, it mathematically can never get lower than 93, even when the active (load) remains 0 forever. This results in the strange 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 uptime values on idle systems. Note: 93/2048 = 0.0454..., which rounds up to 0.05. It is not correct to add a 0.5 rounding (=1024/2048) here, since the result from this function is fed back into the next iteration again, so the result of that +0.5 rounding value then gets multiplied by (2048-2037), and then rounded again, so there is a virtual "ghost" load created, next to the old and active load terms. By changing the way the internally kept value is rounded, that internal value equivalent now can reach 0.00 on idle, and 1.00 on full load. Upon increasing load, the internally kept load value is rounded up, when the load is decreasing, the load value is rounded down. The modified code was tested on nohz=off and nohz kernels. It was tested on vanilla kernel 4.6-rc5 and on centos 7.1 kernel 3.10.0-327. It was tested on single, dual, and octal cores system. It was tested on virtual hosts and bare hardware.

Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups) the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues. The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past). This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we might be placing the current task. The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment in time, and not in the past. This commit re-introduces the previously reverted commit: 3a47d512 ("sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration") ... which is now safe to do, after we've also fixed another underlying bug first, in: sched/fair: Prepare to fix fairness problems on migration and cleaned up other details in the migration code: sched/core: Kill sched_class::task_waking Reported-by: NPavan Kondeti <pkondeti@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Mike reported that our recent attempt to fix migration problems: 3a47d512 ("sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration") broke interactivity and the signal starve test. We reverted that commit and now let's try it again more carefully, with some other underlying problems fixed first. One problem is that I assumed ENQUEUE_WAKING was only set when we do a cross-cpu wakeup (migration), which isn't true. This means we now destroy the vruntime history of tasks and wakeup-preemption suffers. Cure this by making my assumption true, only call sched_class::task_waking() when we do a cross-cpu wakeup. This avoids the indirect call in the case we do a local wakeup.

Since I want to make ->task_woken() conditional on the task getting migrated, we cannot use it to call record_wakee(). Move it to select_task_rq_fair(), which gets called in almost all the same conditions. The only exception is if the woken task (@p) is CPU-bound (as per the nr_cpus_allowed test in select_task_rq()).

Allowing unprivileged kernel profiling lets any user dump follow kernel control flow and dump kernel registers.

Patch summary: When showing a cgroupfs entry in mountinfo, show the path of the mount root dentry relative to the reader's cgroup namespace root. Short explanation (courtesy of mkerrisk): If we create a new cgroup namespace, then we want both /proc/self/cgroup and /proc/self/mountinfo to show cgroup paths that are correctly virtualized with respect to the cgroup mount point. Previous to this patch, /proc/self/cgroup shows the right info, but /proc/self/mountinfo does not. Long version: When a uid 0 task which is in freezer cgroup /a/b, unshares a new cgroup namespace, and then mounts a new instance of the freezer cgroup, the new mount will be rooted at /a/b. The root dentry field of the mountinfo entry will show '/a/b'. cat > /tmp/do1 << EOF mount -t cgroup -o freezer freezer /mnt grep freezer /proc/self/mountinfo EOF unshare -Gm bash /tmp/do1 > 330 160 0:34 / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime - cgroup cgroup rw,freezer > 355 133 0:34 /a/b /mnt rw,relatime - cgroup freezer rw,freezer The task's freezer cgroup entry in /proc/self/cgroup will simply show '/': grep freezer /proc/self/cgroup 9:freezer:/ If instead the same task simply bind mounts the /a/b cgroup directory, the resulting mountinfo entry will again show /a/b for the dentry root. However in this case the task will find its own cgroup at /mnt/a/b, not at /mnt: mount --bind /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer/a/b /mnt 130 25 0:34 /a/b /mnt rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime shared:21 - cgroup cgroup rw,freezer In other words, there is no way for the task to know, based on what is in mountinfo, which cgroup directory is its own. Example (by mkerrisk): First, a little script to save some typing and verbiage: echo -e "\t/proc/self/cgroup:\t$(cat /proc/self/cgroup | grep freezer)" cat /proc/self/mountinfo | grep freezer | awk '{print "\tmountinfo:\t\t" $4 "\t" $5}' Create cgroup, place this shell into the cgroup, and look at the state of the /proc files: 2653 2653 # Our shell 14254 # cat(1) /proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/a/b mountinfo: / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer Create a shell in new cgroup and mount namespaces. The act of creating a new cgroup namespace causes the process's current cgroups directories to become its cgroup root directories. (Here, I'm using my own version of the "unshare" utility, which takes the same options as the util-linux version): Look at the state of the /proc files: /proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/ mountinfo: / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer The third entry in /proc/self/cgroup (the pathname of the cgroup inside the hierarchy) is correctly virtualized w.r.t. the cgroup namespace, which is rooted at /a/b in the outer namespace. However, the info in /proc/self/mountinfo is not for this cgroup namespace, since we are seeing a duplicate of the mount from the old mount namespace, and the info there does not correspond to the new cgroup namespace. However, trying to create a new mount still doesn't show us the right information in mountinfo: # propagating to other mountns /proc/self/cgroup: 7:freezer:/ mountinfo: /a/b /mnt/freezer The act of creating a new cgroup namespace caused the process's current freezer directory, "/a/b", to become its cgroup freezer root directory. In other words, the pathname directory of the directory within the newly mounted cgroup filesystem should be "/", but mountinfo wrongly shows us "/a/b". The consequence of this is that the process in the cgroup namespace cannot correctly construct the pathname of its cgroup root directory from the information in /proc/PID/mountinfo. With this patch, the dentry root field in mountinfo is shown relative to the reader's cgroup namespace. So the same steps as above: /proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/a/b mountinfo: / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer /proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/ mountinfo: /../.. /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer /proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/ mountinfo: / /mnt/freezer cgroup.clone_children freezer.parent_freezing freezer.state tasks cgroup.procs freezer.self_freezing notify_on_release 3164 2653 # First shell that placed in this cgroup 3164 # Shell started by 'unshare' 14197 # cat(1) Signed-off-by: NSerge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@ubuntu.com> Tested-by: NMichael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Acked-by: NMichael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

The following commit: 34e2c555 ("cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks") overlooked the fact that update_load_avg(), where CFS invokes cpufreq utilization update callbacks, becomes an empty stub on UP kernels. In consequence, if !CONFIG_SMP, cpufreq governors are never invoked from CFS and they do not have a chance to evaluate CPU performace levels and update them often enough. Needless to say, things don't work as expected then. Fix the problem by making the !CONFIG_SMP stub of update_load_avg() invoke cpufreq update callbacks too.

The scheduler can handle per cpu threads before the cpu is set to active and it does not allow user space threads on the cpu before active is set. Attaching to the scheduling domains is also not required before user space threads can be handled. Move the activation to the end of the hotplug state space. That also means that deactivation is the first action when a cpu is shut down.
