sched: Remove the cfs_rq dependency from set_task_cpu() 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.

sched: cpu accounting controller (V2) Commit cfb5285660aad4931b2ebbfa902ea48a37dfffa1 removed a useful feature for us, which provided a cpu accounting resource controller. This feature would be useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption. The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's original patch (Commit 62d0df64065e7c135d0002f069444fbdfc64768f), with these differences: - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for 2.6.25 after more discussions. - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler classes - Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage counter to be per-cpu - Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in kernel/sched.c) The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting information. Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested the patches on top of 2.6.24-rc3. The patches work fine.

timers: fix itimer/many thread hang Overview This patch reworks the handling of POSIX CPU timers, including the ITIMER_PROF, ITIMER_VIRT timers and rlimit handling. It was put together with the help of Roland McGrath, the owner and original writer of this code. The problem we ran into, and the reason for this rework, has to do with using a profiling timer in a process with a large number of threads. It appears that the performance of the old implementation of run_posix_cpu_timers() was at least O(n*3) (where "n" is the number of threads in a process) or worse. Everything is fine with an increasing number of threads until the time taken for that routine to run becomes the same as or greater than the tick time, at which point things degrade rather quickly. This patch fixes bug 9906, "Weird hang with NPTL and SIGPROF." Code Changes This rework corrects the implementation of run_posix_cpu_timers() to make it run in constant time for a particular machine. (Performance may vary between one machine and another depending upon whether the kernel is built as single- or multiprocessor and, in the latter case, depending upon the number of running processors.) To do this, at each tick we now update fields in signal_struct as well as task_struct. The run_posix_cpu_timers() function uses those fields to make its decisions. We define a new structure, "task_cputime," to contain user, system and scheduler times and use these in appropriate places: struct task_cputime { cputime_t utime; cputime_t stime; unsigned long long sum_exec_runtime; }; This is included in the structure "thread_group_cputime," which is a new substructure of signal_struct and which varies for uniprocessor versus multiprocessor kernels. For uniprocessor kernels, it uses "task_cputime" as a simple substructure, while for multiprocessor kernels it is a pointer: struct thread_group_cputime { struct task_cputime totals; }; struct thread_group_cputime { struct task_cputime *totals; }; We also add a new task_cputime substructure directly to signal_struct, to cache the earliest expiration of process-wide timers, and task_cputime also replaces the it_*_expires fields of task_struct (used for earliest expiration of thread timers). The "thread_group_cputime" structure contains process-wide timers that are updated via account_user_time() and friends. In the non-SMP case the structure is a simple aggregator; unfortunately in the SMP case that simplicity was not achievable due to cache-line contention between CPUs (in one measured case performance was actually _worse_ on a 16-cpu system than the same test on a 4-cpu system, due to this contention). For SMP, the thread_group_cputime counters are maintained as a per-cpu structure allocated using alloc_percpu(). The timer functions update only the timer field in the structure corresponding to the running CPU, obtained using per_cpu_ptr(). We define a set of inline functions in sched.h that we use to maintain the thread_group_cputime structure and hide the differences between UP and SMP implementations from the rest of the kernel. The thread_group_cputime_init() function initializes the thread_group_cputime structure for the given task. The thread_group_cputime_alloc() is a no-op for UP; for SMP it calls the out-of-line function thread_group_cputime_alloc_smp() to allocate and fill in the per-cpu structures and fields. The thread_group_cputime_free() function, also a no-op for UP, in SMP frees the per-cpu structures. The thread_group_cputime_clone_thread() function (also a UP no-op) for SMP calls thread_group_cputime_alloc() if the per-cpu structures haven't yet been allocated. The thread_group_cputime() function fills the task_cputime structure it is passed with the contents of the thread_group_cputime fields; in UP it's that simple but in SMP it must also safely check that tsk->signal is non-NULL (if it is it just uses the appropriate fields of task_struct) and, if so, sums the per-cpu values for each online CPU. Finally, the three functions account_group_user_time(), account_group_system_time() and account_group_exec_runtime() are used by timer functions to update the respective fields of the thread_group_cputime structure. Non-SMP operation is trivial and will not be mentioned further. The per-cpu structure is always allocated when a task creates its first new thread, via a call to thread_group_cputime_clone_thread() from copy_signal(). It is freed at process exit via a call to thread_group_cputime_free() from cleanup_signal(). All functions that formerly summed utime/stime/sum_sched_runtime values from from all threads in the thread group now use thread_group_cputime() to snapshot the values in the thread_group_cputime structure or the values in the task structure itself if the per-cpu structure hasn't been allocated. Finally, the code in kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c has changed quite a bit. The run_posix_cpu_timers() function has been split into a fast path and a slow path; the former safely checks whether there are any expired thread timers and, if not, just returns, while the slow path does the heavy lifting. With the dedicated thread group fields, timers are no longer "rebalanced" and the process_timer_rebalance() function and related code has gone away. All summing loops are gone and all code that used them now uses the thread_group_cputime() inline. When process-wide timers are set, the new task_cputime structure in signal_struct is used to cache the earliest expiration; this is checked in the fast path. Performance The fix appears not to add significant overhead to existing operations. It generally performs the same as the current code except in two cases, one in which it performs slightly worse (Case 5 below) and one in which it performs very significantly better (Case 2 below). Overall it's a wash except in those two cases. I've since done somewhat more involved testing on a dual-core Opteron system. Case 1: With no itimer running, for a test with 100,000 threads, the fixed kernel took 1428.5 seconds, 513 seconds more than the unfixed system, all of which was spent in the system. There were twice as many voluntary context switches with the fix as without it. Case 2: With an itimer running at .01 second ticks and 4000 threads (the most an unmodified kernel can handle), the fixed kernel ran the test in eight percent of the time (5.8 seconds as opposed to 70 seconds) and had better tick accuracy (.012 seconds per tick as opposed to .023 seconds per tick). Case 3: A 4000-thread test with an initial timer tick of .01 second and an interval of 10,000 seconds (i.e. a timer that ticks only once) had very nearly the same performance in both cases: 6.3 seconds elapsed for the fixed kernel versus 5.5 seconds for the unfixed kernel. With fewer threads (eight in these tests), the Case 1 test ran in essentially the same time on both the modified and unmodified kernels (5.2 seconds versus 5.8 seconds). The Case 2 test ran in about the same time as well, 5.9 seconds versus 5.4 seconds but again with much better tick accuracy, .013 seconds per tick versus .025 seconds per tick for the unmodified kernel. Since the fix affected the rlimit code, I also tested soft and hard CPU limits. Case 4: With a hard CPU limit of 20 seconds and eight threads (and an itimer running), the modified kernel was very slightly favored in that while it killed the process in 19.997 seconds of CPU time (5.002 seconds of wall time), only .003 seconds of that was system time, the rest was user time. The unmodified kernel killed the process in 20.001 seconds of CPU (5.014 seconds of wall time) of which .016 seconds was system time. Really, though, the results were too close to call. The results were essentially the same with no itimer running. Case 5: With a soft limit of 20 seconds and a hard limit of 2000 seconds (where the hard limit would never be reached) and an itimer running, the modified kernel exhibited worse tick accuracy than the unmodified kernel: .050 seconds/tick versus .028 seconds/tick. Otherwise, performance was almost indistinguishable. With no itimer running this test exhibited virtually identical behavior and times in both cases. In times past I did some limited performance testing. those results are below. On a four-cpu Opteron system without this fix, a sixteen-thread test executed in 3569.991 seconds, of which user was 3568.435s and system was 1.556s. On the same system with the fix, user and elapsed time were about the same, but system time dropped to 0.007 seconds. Performance with eight, four and one thread were comparable. Interestingly, the timer ticks with the fix seemed more accurate: The sixteen-thread test with the fix received 149543 ticks for 0.024 seconds per tick, while the same test without the fix received 58720 for 0.061 seconds per tick. Both cases were configured for an interval of 0.01 seconds. Again, the other tests were comparable. Each thread in this test computed the primes up to 25,000,000. I also did a test with a large number of threads, 100,000 threads, which is impossible without the fix. In this case each thread computed the primes only up to 10,000 (to make the runtime manageable). System time dominated, at 1546.968 seconds out of a total 2176.906 seconds (giving a user time of 629.938s). It received 147651 ticks for 0.015 seconds per tick, still quite accurate. There is obviously no comparable test without the fix.

mm: sched: numa: Implement constant, per task Working Set Sampling (WSS) rate Previously, to probe the working set of a task, we'd use a very simple and crude method: mark all of its address space PROT_NONE. That method has various (obvious) disadvantages: - it samples the working set at dissimilar rates, giving some tasks a sampling quality advantage over others. - creates performance problems for tasks with very large working sets - over-samples processes with large address spaces but which only very rarely execute Improve that method by keeping a rotating offset into the address space that marks the current position of the scan, and advance it by a constant rate (in a CPU cycles execution proportional manner). If the offset reaches the last mapped address of the mm then it then it starts over at the first address. The per-task nature of the working set sampling functionality in this tree allows such constant rate, per task, execution-weight proportional sampling of the working set, with an adaptive sampling interval/frequency that goes from once per 100ms up to just once per 8 seconds. The current sampling volume is 256 MB per interval. As tasks mature and converge their working set, so does the sampling rate slow down to just a trickle, 256 MB per 8 seconds of CPU time executed. This, beyond being adaptive, also rate-limits rarely executing systems and does not over-sample on overloaded systems. [ In AutoNUMA speak, this patch deals with the effective sampling rate of the 'hinting page fault'. AutoNUMA's scanning is currently rate-limited, but it is also fundamentally single-threaded, executing in the knuma_scand kernel thread, so the limit in AutoNUMA is global and does not scale up with the number of CPUs, nor does it scan tasks in an execution proportional manner. So the idea of rate-limiting the scanning was first implemented in the AutoNUMA tree via a global rate limit. This patch goes beyond that by implementing an execution rate proportional working set sampling rate that is not implemented via a single global scanning daemon. ] [ Dan Carpenter pointed out a possible NULL pointer dereference in the first version of this patch. ] Based-on-idea-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Bug-Found-By: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> [ Wrote changelog and fixed bug. ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>

mm: sched: numa: Implement slow start for working set sampling Add a 1 second delay before starting to scan the working set of a task and starting to balance it amongst nodes. [ note that before the constant per task WSS sampling rate patch the initial scan would happen much later still, in effect that patch caused this regression. ] The theory is that short-run tasks benefit very little from NUMA placement: they come and go, and they better stick to the node they were started on. As tasks mature and rebalance to other CPUs and nodes, so does their NUMA placement have to change and so does it start to matter more and more. In practice this change fixes an observable kbuild regression: # [ a perf stat --null --repeat 10 test of ten bzImage builds to /dev/shm ] !NUMA: 45.291088843 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.40% ) 45.154231752 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.36% ) +NUMA, no slow start: 46.172308123 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.30% ) 46.343168745 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% ) +NUMA, 1 sec slow start: 45.224189155 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% ) 45.160866532 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.17% ) and it also fixes an observable perf bench (hackbench) regression: # perf stat --null --repeat 10 perf bench sched messaging -NUMA: -NUMA: 0.246225691 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.31% ) +NUMA no slow start: 0.252620063 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.13% ) +NUMA 1sec delay: 0.248076230 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.35% ) The implementation is simple and straightforward, most of the patch deals with adding the /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing_scan_delay_ms tunable knob.

Properly placed pages slow the scanning rate but adding 10 jiffies to numa_scan_period means that the rate scanning slows depends on HZ which is confusing. Get rid of the jiffies_to_msec conversion and treat it as ms.

sched/numa: Set the scan rate proportional to the memory usage of the task being scanned The NUMA PTE scan rate is controlled with a combination of the numa_balancing_scan_period_min, numa_balancing_scan_period_max and numa_balancing_scan_size. This scan rate is independent of the size of the task and as an aside it is further complicated by the fact that numa_balancing_scan_size controls how many pages are marked pte_numa and not how much virtual memory is scanned. In combination, it is almost impossible to meaningfully tune the min and max scan periods and reasoning about performance is complex when the time to complete a full scan is is partially a function of the tasks memory size. This patch alters the semantic of the min and max tunables to be about tuning the length time it takes to complete a scan of a tasks occupied virtual address space. Conceptually this is a lot easier to understand. There is a "sanity" check to ensure the scan rate is never extremely fast based on the amount of virtual memory that should be scanned in a second. The default of 2.5G seems arbitrary but it is to have the maximum scan rate after the patch roughly match the maximum scan rate before the patch was applied. On a similar note, numa_scan_period is in milliseconds and not jiffies. Properly placed pages slow the scanning rate but adding 10 jiffies to numa_scan_period means that the rate scanning slows depends on HZ which is confusing. Get rid of the jiffies_to_msec conversion and treat it as ms.

mm: sched: numa: Implement constant, per task Working Set Sampling (WSS) rate Previously, to probe the working set of a task, we'd use a very simple and crude method: mark all of its address space PROT_NONE. That method has various (obvious) disadvantages: - it samples the working set at dissimilar rates, giving some tasks a sampling quality advantage over others. - creates performance problems for tasks with very large working sets - over-samples processes with large address spaces but which only very rarely execute Improve that method by keeping a rotating offset into the address space that marks the current position of the scan, and advance it by a constant rate (in a CPU cycles execution proportional manner). If the offset reaches the last mapped address of the mm then it then it starts over at the first address. The per-task nature of the working set sampling functionality in this tree allows such constant rate, per task, execution-weight proportional sampling of the working set, with an adaptive sampling interval/frequency that goes from once per 100ms up to just once per 8 seconds. The current sampling volume is 256 MB per interval. As tasks mature and converge their working set, so does the sampling rate slow down to just a trickle, 256 MB per 8 seconds of CPU time executed. This, beyond being adaptive, also rate-limits rarely executing systems and does not over-sample on overloaded systems. [ In AutoNUMA speak, this patch deals with the effective sampling rate of the 'hinting page fault'. AutoNUMA's scanning is currently rate-limited, but it is also fundamentally single-threaded, executing in the knuma_scand kernel thread, so the limit in AutoNUMA is global and does not scale up with the number of CPUs, nor does it scan tasks in an execution proportional manner. So the idea of rate-limiting the scanning was first implemented in the AutoNUMA tree via a global rate limit. This patch goes beyond that by implementing an execution rate proportional working set sampling rate that is not implemented via a single global scanning daemon. ] [ Dan Carpenter pointed out a possible NULL pointer dereference in the first version of this patch. ] Based-on-idea-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Bug-Found-By: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> [ Wrote changelog and fixed bug. ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>

This scan rate is independent of the size of the task and as an aside it is further complicated by the fact that numa_balancing_scan_size controls how many pages are marked pte_numa and not how much virtual memory is scanned. In combination, it is almost impossible to meaningfully tune the min and max scan periods and reasoning about performance is complex when the time to complete a full scan is is partially a function of the tasks memory size. This patch alters the semantic of the min and max tunables to be about tuning the length time it takes to complete a scan of a tasks occupied virtual address space. Conceptually this is a lot easier to understand. There is a "sanity" check to ensure the scan rate is never extremely fast based on the amount of virtual memory that should be scanned in a second. The default of 2.5G seems arbitrary but it is to have the maximum scan rate after the patch roughly match the maximum scan rate before the patch was applied. On a similar note, numa_scan_period is in milliseconds and not jiffies.

Avoid this by delaying the task doing the protection change such that it is unlikely to win the privilege again.

sched/numa: Set the scan rate proportional to the memory usage of the task being scanned The NUMA PTE scan rate is controlled with a combination of the numa_balancing_scan_period_min, numa_balancing_scan_period_max and numa_balancing_scan_size. This scan rate is independent of the size of the task and as an aside it is further complicated by the fact that numa_balancing_scan_size controls how many pages are marked pte_numa and not how much virtual memory is scanned. In combination, it is almost impossible to meaningfully tune the min and max scan periods and reasoning about performance is complex when the time to complete a full scan is is partially a function of the tasks memory size. This patch alters the semantic of the min and max tunables to be about tuning the length time it takes to complete a scan of a tasks occupied virtual address space. Conceptually this is a lot easier to understand. There is a "sanity" check to ensure the scan rate is never extremely fast based on the amount of virtual memory that should be scanned in a second. The default of 2.5G seems arbitrary but it is to have the maximum scan rate after the patch roughly match the maximum scan rate before the patch was applied. On a similar note, numa_scan_period is in milliseconds and not jiffies. Properly placed pages slow the scanning rate but adding 10 jiffies to numa_scan_period means that the rate scanning slows depends on HZ which is confusing. Get rid of the jiffies_to_msec conversion and treat it as ms.

[ note that before the constant per task WSS sampling rate patch the initial scan would happen much later still, in effect that patch caused this regression. ] The theory is that short-run tasks benefit very little from NUMA placement: they come and go, and they better stick to the node they were started on. As tasks mature and rebalance to other CPUs and nodes, so does their NUMA placement have to change and so does it start to matter more and more. In practice this change fixes an observable kbuild regression: # [ a perf stat --null --repeat 10 test of ten bzImage builds to /dev/shm ] !NUMA: 45.291088843 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.40% ) 45.154231752 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.36% ) +NUMA, no slow start: 46.172308123 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.30% ) 46.343168745 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% ) +NUMA, 1 sec slow start: 45.224189155 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% ) 45.160866532 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.17% ) and it also fixes an observable perf bench (hackbench) regression: # perf stat --null --repeat 10 perf bench sched messaging -NUMA: -NUMA: 0.246225691 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.31% ) +NUMA no slow start: 0.252620063 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.13% ) +NUMA 1sec delay: 0.248076230 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.35% ) The implementation is simple and straightforward, most of the patch deals with adding the /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing_scan_delay_ms tunable knob.

sched: Set an initial value of runnable avg for new forked task We need to initialize the se.avg.{decay_count, load_avg_contrib} for a new forked task. Otherwise random values of above variables cause a mess when a new task is enqueued: enqueue_task_fair enqueue_entity enqueue_entity_load_avg and make fork balancing imbalance due to incorrect load_avg_contrib. Further more, Morten Rasmussen notice some tasks were not launched at once after created. So Paul and Peter suggest giving a start value for new task runnable avg time same as sched_slice(). PeterZ said: > So the 'problem' is that our running avg is a 'floating' average; ie. it > decays with time. Now we have to guess about the future of our newly > spawned task -- something that is nigh impossible seeing these CPU > vendors keep refusing to implement the crystal ball instruction. > > So there's two asymptotic cases we want to deal well with; 1) the case > where the newly spawned program will be 'nearly' idle for its lifetime; > and 2) the case where its cpu-bound. > > Since we have to guess, we'll go for worst case and assume its > cpu-bound; now we don't want to make the avg so heavy adjusting to the > near-idle case takes forever. We want to be able to quickly adjust and > lower our running avg. > > Now we also don't want to make our avg too light, such that it gets > decremented just for the new task not having had a chance to run yet -- > even if when it would run, it would be more cpu-bound than not. > > So what we do is we make the initial avg of the same duration as that we > guess it takes to run each task on the system at least once -- aka > sched_slice(). > > Of course we can defeat this with wakeup/fork bombs, but in the 'normal' > case it should be good enough.

sched: Fix wrong rq's runnable_avg update with rt tasks The current update of the rq's load can be erroneous when RT tasks are involved. The update of the load of a rq that becomes idle, is done only if the avg_idle is less than sysctl_sched_migration_cost. If RT tasks and short idle duration alternate, the runnable_avg will not be updated correctly and the time will be accounted as idle time when a CFS task wakes up. A new idle_enter function is called when the next task is the idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as run time in the load of the rq, whatever the average idle time is. The function update_rq_runnable_avg is removed from idle_balance. When a RT task is scheduled on an idle CPU, the update of the rq's load is not done when the rq exit idle state because CFS's functions are not called. Then, the idle_balance, which is called just before entering the idle function, updates the rq's load and makes the assumption that the elapsed time since the last update, was only running time. As a consequence, the rq's load of a CPU that only runs a periodic RT task, is close to LOAD_AVG_MAX whatever the running duration of the RT task is. A new idle_exit function is called when the prev task is the idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as idle time in the rq's load.

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.

In the case where there are throttled runqueues and we have sufficient bandwidth to meter out a slice, a second timer is kicked off to handle this delivery, unthrottling where appropriate. Using a 'worst case' antagonist which executes on each cpu for 1ms before moving onto the next on a fairly large machine: no quota generations: 197.47 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 199.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 205.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 208.39 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage Since we are allowed to use "stale" quota our usage is effectively bounded by the rate of input into the global pool and performance is relatively stable. with quota generations [1s increments]: 119.58 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.65 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.64 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.63 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.60 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage The large deficit here is due to quota generations (/intentionally/) preventing us from now using previously stranded slack quota. The cost is that this quota becomes unavailable. with quota generations and quota return: 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.06 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage By returning unused quota we're able to both stably consume our desired quota and prevent unintentional overages due to the abuse of slack quota from previous quota periods (especially on a large machine).

sched: Remove the cfs_rq dependency from set_task_cpu() 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.

sched: Return unused runtime on group dequeue When a local cfs_rq blocks we return the majority of its remaining quota to the global bandwidth pool for use by other runqueues. We do this only when the quota is current and there is more than min_cfs_rq_quota [1ms by default] of runtime remaining on the rq. In the case where there are throttled runqueues and we have sufficient bandwidth to meter out a slice, a second timer is kicked off to handle this delivery, unthrottling where appropriate. Using a 'worst case' antagonist which executes on each cpu for 1ms before moving onto the next on a fairly large machine: no quota generations: 197.47 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 199.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 205.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 208.39 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage Since we are allowed to use "stale" quota our usage is effectively bounded by the rate of input into the global pool and performance is relatively stable. with quota generations [1s increments]: 119.58 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.65 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.64 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.63 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.60 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage The large deficit here is due to quota generations (/intentionally/) preventing us from now using previously stranded slack quota. The cost is that this quota becomes unavailable. with quota generations and quota return: 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.06 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage By returning unused quota we're able to both stably consume our desired quota and prevent unintentional overages due to the abuse of slack quota from previous quota periods (especially on a large machine).

sched: Strengthen buddies and mitigate buddy induced latencies This patch restores the effectiveness of LAST_BUDDY in preventing pgsql+oltp from collapsing due to wakeup preemption. It also switches LAST_BUDDY to exclusively do what it does best, namely mitigate the effects of aggressive wakeup preemption, which improves vmark throughput markedly, and restores mysql+oltp scalability. Since buddies are about scalability, enable them beginning at the point where we begin expanding sched_latency, namely sched_nr_latency. Previously, buddies were cleared aggressively, which seriously reduced their effectiveness. Not clearing aggressively however, produces a small drop in mysql+oltp throughput immediately after peak, indicating that LAST_BUDDY is actually doing some harm. This is right at the point where X on the desktop in competition with another load wants low latency service. Ergo, do not enable until we need to scale. To mitigate latency induced by buddies, or by a task just missing wakeup preemption, check latency at tick time. Last hunk prevents buddies from stymieing BALANCE_NEWIDLE via CACHE_HOT_BUDDY.

sched: Strengthen buddies and mitigate buddy induced latencies This patch restores the effectiveness of LAST_BUDDY in preventing pgsql+oltp from collapsing due to wakeup preemption. It also switches LAST_BUDDY to exclusively do what it does best, namely mitigate the effects of aggressive wakeup preemption, which improves vmark throughput markedly, and restores mysql+oltp scalability. Since buddies are about scalability, enable them beginning at the point where we begin expanding sched_latency, namely sched_nr_latency. Previously, buddies were cleared aggressively, which seriously reduced their effectiveness. Not clearing aggressively however, produces a small drop in mysql+oltp throughput immediately after peak, indicating that LAST_BUDDY is actually doing some harm. This is right at the point where X on the desktop in competition with another load wants low latency service. Ergo, do not enable until we need to scale. To mitigate latency induced by buddies, or by a task just missing wakeup preemption, check latency at tick time. Last hunk prevents buddies from stymieing BALANCE_NEWIDLE via CACHE_HOT_BUDDY.

sched: Return unused runtime on group dequeue When a local cfs_rq blocks we return the majority of its remaining quota to the global bandwidth pool for use by other runqueues. We do this only when the quota is current and there is more than min_cfs_rq_quota [1ms by default] of runtime remaining on the rq. In the case where there are throttled runqueues and we have sufficient bandwidth to meter out a slice, a second timer is kicked off to handle this delivery, unthrottling where appropriate. Using a 'worst case' antagonist which executes on each cpu for 1ms before moving onto the next on a fairly large machine: no quota generations: 197.47 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 199.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 205.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 208.39 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage Since we are allowed to use "stale" quota our usage is effectively bounded by the rate of input into the global pool and performance is relatively stable. with quota generations [1s increments]: 119.58 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.65 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.64 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.63 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.60 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage The large deficit here is due to quota generations (/intentionally/) preventing us from now using previously stranded slack quota. The cost is that this quota becomes unavailable. with quota generations and quota return: 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.06 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage By returning unused quota we're able to both stably consume our desired quota and prevent unintentional overages due to the abuse of slack quota from previous quota periods (especially on a large machine).

sched: Remove the cfs_rq dependency from set_task_cpu() 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.

sched: Implement smarter wake-affine logic The wake-affine scheduler feature is currently always trying to pull the wakee close to the waker. In theory this should be beneficial if the waker's CPU caches hot data for the wakee, and it's also beneficial in the extreme ping-pong high context switch rate case. Testing shows it can benefit hackbench up to 15%. However, the feature is somewhat blind, from which some workloads such as pgbench suffer. It's also time-consuming algorithmically. Testing shows it can damage pgbench up to 50% - far more than the benefit it brings in the best case. So wake-affine should be smarter and it should realize when to stop its thankless effort at trying to find a suitable CPU to wake on. This patch introduces 'wakee_flips', which will be increased each time the task flips (switches) its wakee target. So a high 'wakee_flips' value means the task has more than one wakee, and the bigger the number, the higher the wakeup frequency.

sched: Remove the cfs_rq dependency from set_task_cpu() 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.

* effective_load() calculates the load change as seen from the root_task_group
*
* Adding load to a group doesn't make a group heavier, but can cause movement

*
* Calculate the effective load difference if @wl is added (subtracted) to @tg
* on this @cpu and results in a total addition (subtraction) of @wg to the
* total group weight.
*
* Given a runqueue weight distribution (rw_i) we can compute a shares
* distribution (s_i) using:
*
* s_i = rw_i / \Sum rw_j (1)
*
* Suppose we have 4 CPUs and our @tg is a direct child of the root group and
* has 7 equal weight tasks, distributed as below (rw_i), with the resulting
* shares distribution (s_i):
*
* rw_i = { 2, 4, 1, 0 }
* s_i = { 2/7, 4/7, 1/7, 0 }
*
* As per wake_affine() we're interested in the load of two CPUs (the CPU the
* task used to run on and the CPU the waker is running on), we need to
* compute the effect of waking a task on either CPU and, in case of a sync
* wakeup, compute the effect of the current task going to sleep.
*
* So for a change of @wl to the local @cpu with an overall group weight change
* of @wl we can compute the new shares distribution (s'_i) using:
*
* s'_i = (rw_i + @wl) / (@wg + \Sum rw_j) (2)
*
* Suppose we're interested in CPUs 0 and 1, and want to compute the load
* differences in waking a task to CPU 0. The additional task changes the
* weight and shares distributions like:
*
* rw'_i = { 3, 4, 1, 0 }
* s'_i = { 3/8, 4/8, 1/8, 0 }
*
* We can then compute the difference in effective weight by using:
*
* dw_i = S * (s'_i - s_i) (3)
*
* Where 'S' is the group weight as seen by its parent.
*
* Therefore the effective change in loads on CPU 0 would be 5/56 (3/8 - 2/7)
* times the weight of the group. The effect on CPU 1 would be -4/56 (4/8 -
* 4/7) times the weight of the group.

sched: Implement smarter wake-affine logic The wake-affine scheduler feature is currently always trying to pull the wakee close to the waker. In theory this should be beneficial if the waker's CPU caches hot data for the wakee, and it's also beneficial in the extreme ping-pong high context switch rate case. Testing shows it can benefit hackbench up to 15%. However, the feature is somewhat blind, from which some workloads such as pgbench suffer. It's also time-consuming algorithmically. Testing shows it can damage pgbench up to 50% - far more than the benefit it brings in the best case. So wake-affine should be smarter and it should realize when to stop its thankless effort at trying to find a suitable CPU to wake on. This patch introduces 'wakee_flips', which will be increased each time the task flips (switches) its wakee target. So a high 'wakee_flips' value means the task has more than one wakee, and the bigger the number, the higher the wakeup frequency. Now when making the decision on whether to pull or not, pay attention to the wakee with a high 'wakee_flips', pulling such a task may benefit the wakee. Also imply that the waker will face cruel competition later, it could be very cruel or very fast depends on the story behind 'wakee_flips', waker therefore suffers. Furthermore, if waker also has a high 'wakee_flips', that implies that multiple tasks rely on it, then waker's higher latency will damage all of them, so pulling wakee seems to be a bad deal. Thus, when 'waker->wakee_flips / wakee->wakee_flips' becomes higher and higher, the cost of pulling seems to be worse and worse. The patch therefore helps the wake-affine feature to stop its pulling work when: wakee->wakee_flips > factor && waker->wakee_flips > (factor * wakee->wakee_flips) The 'factor' here is the number of CPUs in the current CPU's NUMA node, so a bigger node will lead to more pulling since the trial becomes more severe.

sched: Dynamically allocate sched_domain/sched_group data-structures Instead of relying on static allocations for the sched_domain and sched_group trees, dynamically allocate and RCU free them. Allocating this dynamically also allows for some build_sched_groups() simplification since we can now (like with other simplifications) rely on the sched_domain tree instead of hard-coded knowledge. One tricky to note is that detach_destroy_domains() needs to hold rcu_read_lock() over the entire tear-down, per-cpu is not sufficient since that can lead to partial sched_group existance (could possibly be solved by doing the tear-down backwards but this is much more robust). A concequence of the above is that we can no longer print the sched_domain debug stuff from cpu_attach_domain() since that might now run with preemption disabled (due to classic RCU etc.) and sched_domain_debug() does some GFP_KERNEL allocations. Another thing to note is that we now fully rely on normal RCU and not RCU-sched, this is because with the new and exiting RCU flavours we grew over the years BH doesn't necessarily hold off RCU-sched grace periods (-rt is known to break this). This would in fact already cause us grief since we do sched_domain/sched_group iterations from softirq context. This patch is somewhat larger than I would like it to be, but I didn't find any means of shrinking/splitting this.

sched: Fix select_idle_sibling() logic in select_task_rq_fair() 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.

sched: Strengthen buddies and mitigate buddy induced latencies This patch restores the effectiveness of LAST_BUDDY in preventing pgsql+oltp from collapsing due to wakeup preemption. It also switches LAST_BUDDY to exclusively do what it does best, namely mitigate the effects of aggressive wakeup preemption, which improves vmark throughput markedly, and restores mysql+oltp scalability. Since buddies are about scalability, enable them beginning at the point where we begin expanding sched_latency, namely sched_nr_latency. Previously, buddies were cleared aggressively, which seriously reduced their effectiveness. Not clearing aggressively however, produces a small drop in mysql+oltp throughput immediately after peak, indicating that LAST_BUDDY is actually doing some harm. This is right at the point where X on the desktop in competition with another load wants low latency service. Ergo, do not enable until we need to scale. To mitigate latency induced by buddies, or by a task just missing wakeup preemption, check latency at tick time. Last hunk prevents buddies from stymieing BALANCE_NEWIDLE via CACHE_HOT_BUDDY.

/**************************************************
* Fair scheduling class load-balancing methods.
*
* BASICS
*
* The purpose of load-balancing is to achieve the same basic fairness the
* per-cpu scheduler provides, namely provide a proportional amount of compute
* time to each task. This is expressed in the following equation:
*
* W_i,n/P_i == W_j,n/P_j for all i,j (1)
*
* Where W_i,n is the n-th weight average for cpu i. The instantaneous weight
* W_i,0 is defined as:
*
* W_i,0 = \Sum_j w_i,j (2)
*
* Where w_i,j is the weight of the j-th runnable task on cpu i. This weight
* is derived from the nice value as per prio_to_weight[].
*
* The weight average is an exponential decay average of the instantaneous
* weight:
*
* W'_i,n = (2^n - 1) / 2^n * W_i,n + 1 / 2^n * W_i,0 (3)
*
* P_i is the cpu power (or compute capacity) of cpu i, typically it is the
* fraction of 'recent' time available for SCHED_OTHER task execution. But it
* can also include other factors [XXX].
*
* To achieve this balance we define a measure of imbalance which follows
* directly from (1):
*
* imb_i,j = max{ avg(W/P), W_i/P_i } - min{ avg(W/P), W_j/P_j } (4)
*
* We them move tasks around to minimize the imbalance. In the continuous
* function space it is obvious this converges, in the discrete case we get
* a few fun cases generally called infeasible weight scenarios.
*
* [XXX expand on:
* - infeasible weights;
* - local vs global optima in the discrete case. ]
*
*
* SCHED DOMAINS
*
* In order to solve the imbalance equation (4), and avoid the obvious O(n^2)
* for all i,j solution, we create a tree of cpus that follows the hardware
* topology where each level pairs two lower groups (or better). This results
* in O(log n) layers. Furthermore we reduce the number of cpus going up the
* tree to only the first of the previous level and we decrease the frequency
* of load-balance at each level inv. proportional to the number of cpus in
* the groups.
*
* This yields:
*
* log_2 n 1 n
* \Sum { --- * --- * 2^i } = O(n) (5)
* i = 0 2^i 2^i
* `- size of each group
* | | `- number of cpus doing load-balance
* | `- freq
* `- sum over all levels
*
* Coupled with a limit on how many tasks we can migrate every balance pass,
* this makes (5) the runtime complexity of the balancer.
*
* An important property here is that each CPU is still (indirectly) connected
* to every other cpu in at most O(log n) steps:
*
* The adjacency matrix of the resulting graph is given by:
*
* log_2 n
* A_i,j = \Union (i % 2^k == 0) && i / 2^(k+1) == j / 2^(k+1) (6)
* k = 0
*
* And you'll find that:
*
* A^(log_2 n)_i,j != 0 for all i,j (7)
*
* Showing there's indeed a path between every cpu in at most O(log n) steps.
* The task movement gives a factor of O(m), giving a convergence complexity
* of:
*
* O(nm log n), n := nr_cpus, m := nr_tasks (8)
*
*
* WORK CONSERVING
*
* In order to avoid CPUs going idle while there's still work to do, new idle
* balancing is more aggressive and has the newly idle cpu iterate up the domain
* tree itself instead of relying on other CPUs to bring it work.
*
* This adds some complexity to both (5) and (8) but it reduces the total idle
* time.
*
* [XXX more?]
*
*
* CGROUPS
*
* Cgroups make a horror show out of (2), instead of a simple sum we get:
*
* s_k,i
* W_i,0 = \Sum_j \Prod_k w_k * ----- (9)
* S_k
*
* Where
*
* s_k,i = \Sum_j w_i,j,k and S_k = \Sum_i s_k,i (10)
*
* w_i,j,k is the weight of the j-th runnable task in the k-th cgroup on cpu i.
*
* The big problem is S_k, its a global sum needed to compute a local (W_i)
* property.
*
* [XXX write more on how we solve this.. _after_ merging pjt's patches that
* rewrite all of this once again.]

sched: Improve balance_cpu() to consider other cpus in its group as target of (pinned) task Current load balance scheme requires only one cpu in a sched_group (balance_cpu) to look at other peer sched_groups for imbalance and pull tasks towards itself from a busy cpu. Tasks thus pulled by balance_cpu could later get picked up by cpus that are in the same sched_group as that of balance_cpu. This scheme however fails to pull tasks that are not allowed to run on balance_cpu (but are allowed to run on other cpus in its sched_group). That can affect fairness and in some worst case scenarios cause starvation. Consider a two core (2 threads/core) system running tasks as below: Core0 Core1 / \ / \ C0 C1 C2 C3 | | | | v v v v F0 T1 F1 [idle] T2 F0 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C0) F1 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C2) T1 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1) T2 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1 and C2) F1 could become a cpu hog, which will starve T2 unless C1 pulls it. Between C0 and C1 however, C0 is required to look for imbalance between cores, which will fail to pull T2 towards Core0. T2 will starve eternally in this case. The same scenario can arise in presence of non-rt tasks as well (say we replace F1 with high irq load). We tackle this problem by having balance_cpu move pinned tasks to one of its sibling cpus (where they can run). We first check if load balance goal can be met by ignoring pinned tasks, failing which we retry move_tasks() with a new env->dst_cpu. This patch modifies load balance semantics on who can move load towards a given cpu in a given sched_domain. Before this patch, a given_cpu or a ilb_cpu acting on behalf of an idle given_cpu is responsible for moving load to given_cpu. With this patch applied, balance_cpu can in addition decide on moving some load to a given_cpu. There is a remote possibility that excess load could get moved as a result of this (balance_cpu and given_cpu/ilb_cpu deciding *independently* and at *same* time to move some load to a given_cpu). However we should see less of such conflicting decisions in practice and moreover subsequent load balance cycles should correct the excess load moved to given_cpu.

sched: Improve balance_cpu() to consider other cpus in its group as target of (pinned) task Current load balance scheme requires only one cpu in a sched_group (balance_cpu) to look at other peer sched_groups for imbalance and pull tasks towards itself from a busy cpu. Tasks thus pulled by balance_cpu could later get picked up by cpus that are in the same sched_group as that of balance_cpu. This scheme however fails to pull tasks that are not allowed to run on balance_cpu (but are allowed to run on other cpus in its sched_group). That can affect fairness and in some worst case scenarios cause starvation. Consider a two core (2 threads/core) system running tasks as below: Core0 Core1 / \ / \ C0 C1 C2 C3 | | | | v v v v F0 T1 F1 [idle] T2 F0 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C0) F1 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C2) T1 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1) T2 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1 and C2) F1 could become a cpu hog, which will starve T2 unless C1 pulls it. Between C0 and C1 however, C0 is required to look for imbalance between cores, which will fail to pull T2 towards Core0. T2 will starve eternally in this case. The same scenario can arise in presence of non-rt tasks as well (say we replace F1 with high irq load). We tackle this problem by having balance_cpu move pinned tasks to one of its sibling cpus (where they can run). We first check if load balance goal can be met by ignoring pinned tasks, failing which we retry move_tasks() with a new env->dst_cpu. This patch modifies load balance semantics on who can move load towards a given cpu in a given sched_domain. Before this patch, a given_cpu or a ilb_cpu acting on behalf of an idle given_cpu is responsible for moving load to given_cpu. With this patch applied, balance_cpu can in addition decide on moving some load to a given_cpu. There is a remote possibility that excess load could get moved as a result of this (balance_cpu and given_cpu/ilb_cpu deciding *independently* and at *same* time to move some load to a given_cpu). However we should see less of such conflicting decisions in practice and moreover subsequent load balance cycles should correct the excess load moved to given_cpu.

sched: Move h_load calculation to task_h_load() The bad thing about update_h_load(), which computes hierarchical load factor for task groups, is that it is called for each task group in the system before every load balancer run, and since rebalance can be triggered very often, this function can eat really a lot of cpu time if there are many cpu cgroups in the system. Although the situation was improved significantly by commit a35b646 ('sched, cgroup: Reduce rq->lock hold times for large cgroup hierarchies'), the problem still can arise under some kinds of loads, e.g. when cpus are switching from idle to busy and back very frequently. For instance, when I start 1000 of processes that wake up every millisecond on my 8 cpus host, 'top' and 'perf top' show: Cpu(s): 17.8%us, 24.3%sy, 0.0%ni, 57.9%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si Events: 243K cycles 7.57% [kernel] [k] __schedule 7.08% [kernel] [k] timerqueue_add 6.13% libc-2.12.so [.] usleep Then if I create 10000 *idle* cpu cgroups (no processes in them), cpu usage increases significantly although the 'wakers' are still executing in the root cpu cgroup: Cpu(s): 19.1%us, 48.7%sy, 0.0%ni, 31.6%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.7%si Events: 230K cycles 24.56% [kernel] [k] tg_load_down 5.76% [kernel] [k] __schedule This happens because this particular kind of load triggers 'new idle' rebalance very frequently, which requires calling update_h_load(), which, in turn, calls tg_load_down() for every *idle* cpu cgroup even though it is absolutely useless, because idle cpu cgroups have no tasks to pull. This patch tries to improve the situation by making h_load calculation proceed only when h_load is really necessary. To achieve this, it substitutes update_h_load() with update_cfs_rq_h_load(), which computes h_load only for a given cfs_rq and all its ascendants, and makes the load balancer call this function whenever it considers if a task should be pulled, i.e. it moves h_load calculations directly to task_h_load(). For h_load of the same cfs_rq not to be updated multiple times (in case several tasks in the same cgroup are considered during the same balance run), the patch keeps the time of the last h_load update for each cfs_rq and breaks calculation when it finds h_load to be uptodate.

* Compute the hierarchical load factor for cfs_rq and all its ascendants.

*/
sched: Move h_load calculation to task_h_load() The bad thing about update_h_load(), which computes hierarchical load factor for task groups, is that it is called for each task group in the system before every load balancer run, and since rebalance can be triggered very often, this function can eat really a lot of cpu time if there are many cpu cgroups in the system. Although the situation was improved significantly by commit a35b646 ('sched, cgroup: Reduce rq->lock hold times for large cgroup hierarchies'), the problem still can arise under some kinds of loads, e.g. when cpus are switching from idle to busy and back very frequently. For instance, when I start 1000 of processes that wake up every millisecond on my 8 cpus host, 'top' and 'perf top' show: Cpu(s): 17.8%us, 24.3%sy, 0.0%ni, 57.9%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si Events: 243K cycles 7.57% [kernel] [k] __schedule 7.08% [kernel] [k] timerqueue_add 6.13% libc-2.12.so [.] usleep Then if I create 10000 *idle* cpu cgroups (no processes in them), cpu usage increases significantly although the 'wakers' are still executing in the root cpu cgroup: Cpu(s): 19.1%us, 48.7%sy, 0.0%ni, 31.6%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.7%si Events: 230K cycles 24.56% [kernel] [k] tg_load_down 5.76% [kernel] [k] __schedule This happens because this particular kind of load triggers 'new idle' rebalance very frequently, which requires calling update_h_load(), which, in turn, calls tg_load_down() for every *idle* cpu cgroup even though it is absolutely useless, because idle cpu cgroups have no tasks to pull. This patch tries to improve the situation by making h_load calculation proceed only when h_load is really necessary. To achieve this, it substitutes update_h_load() with update_cfs_rq_h_load(), which computes h_load only for a given cfs_rq and all its ascendants, and makes the load balancer call this function whenever it considers if a task should be pulled, i.e. it moves h_load calculations directly to task_h_load(). For h_load of the same cfs_rq not to be updated multiple times (in case several tasks in the same cgroup are considered during the same balance run), the patch keeps the time of the last h_load update for each cfs_rq and breaks calculation when it finds h_load to be uptodate. The benefit of it is that h_load is computed only for those cfs_rq's, which really need it, in particular all idle task groups are skipped.

It was found that: schedule() idle_balance() load_balance() local_irq_save() double_rq_lock() update_h_load() walk_tg_tree(tg_load_down) tg_load_down() Results in an entire cgroup hierarchy walk under rq->lock for every new-idle balance and since new-idle balance isn't throttled this results in a lot of work while holding the rq->lock.

And secondly it throttles the update_h_load() calculation to max once per jiffy.

For h_load of the same cfs_rq not to be updated multiple times (in case several tasks in the same cgroup are considered during the same balance run), the patch keeps the time of the last h_load update for each cfs_rq and breaks calculation when it finds h_load to be uptodate. The benefit of it is that h_load is computed only for those cfs_rq's, which really need it, in particular all idle task groups are skipped. Although this, in fact, moves h_load calculation under rq lock, it should not affect latency much, because the amount of work done under rq lock while trying to pull tasks is limited by sched_nr_migrate.

sched: Use group weight, idle cpu metrics to fix imbalances during idle Currently we consider a sched domain to be well balanced when the imbalance is less than the domain's imablance_pct. As the number of cores and threads are increasing, current values of imbalance_pct (for example 25% for a NUMA domain) are not enough to detect imbalances like: a) On a WSM-EP system (two sockets, each having 6 cores and 12 logical threads), 24 cpu-hogging tasks get scheduled as 13 on one socket and 11 on another socket. Leading to an idle HT cpu. b) On a hypothetial 2 socket NHM-EX system (each socket having 8 cores and 16 logical threads), 16 cpu-hogging tasks can get scheduled as 9 on one socket and 7 on another socket. Leaving one core in a socket idle whereas in another socket we have a core having both its HT siblings busy. While this issue can be fixed by decreasing the domain's imbalance_pct (by making it a function of number of logical cpus in the domain), it can potentially cause more task migrations across sched groups in an overloaded case. Fix this by using imbalance_pct only during newly_idle and busy load balancing. And during idle load balancing, check if there is an imbalance in number of idle cpu's across the busiest and this sched_group or if the busiest group has more tasks than its weight that the idle cpu in this_group can pull.

sched: Fix SCHED_MC regression caused by change in sched cpu_power 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 f93e65c186ab3c05ce2068733ca10e34fd00125e | 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: Ma Ling <ling.ma@intel.com> Initial-Analysis-by: Zhang, Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> [ -v2: build fix ] Signed-off-by: Peter 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: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

And during idle load balancing, check if there is an imbalance in number of idle cpu's across the busiest and this sched_group or if the busiest group has more tasks than its weight that the idle cpu in this_group can pull.

sched: Add asymmetric group packing option for sibling domain Check to see if the group is packed in a sched doman. This is primarily intended to used at the sibling level. Some cores like POWER7 prefer to use lower numbered SMT threads. In the case of POWER7, it can move to lower SMT modes only when higher threads are idle. When in lower SMT modes, the threads will perform better since they share less core resources. Hence when we have idle threads, we want them to be the higher ones. This adds a hook into f_b_g() called check_asym_packing() to check the packing. This packing function is run on idle threads. It checks to see if the busiest CPU in this domain (core in the P7 case) has a higher CPU number than what where the packing function is being run on. If it is, calculate the imbalance and return the higher busier thread as the busiest group to f_b_g(). Here we are assuming a lower CPU number will be equivalent to a lower SMT thread number. It also creates a new SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to enable this feature at any scheduler domain level. It also creates an arch hook to enable this feature at the sibling level. The default function doesn't enable this feature. Based heavily on patch from Peter Zijlstra. Fixes from Srivatsa Vaddagiri.

* first, lower the sg capacity to one so that we'll try
sched: Drop group_capacity to 1 only if local group has extra capacity When SD_PREFER_SIBLING is set on a sched domain, drop group_capacity to 1 only if the local group has extra capacity. The extra check prevents the case where you always pull from the heaviest group when it is already under-utilized (possible with a large weight task outweighs the tasks on the system). For example, consider a 16-cpu quad-core quad-socket machine with MC and NUMA scheduling domains. Let's say we spawn 15 nice0 tasks and one nice-15 task, and each task is running on one core. In this case, we observe the following events when balancing at the NUMA domain: - find_busiest_group() will always pick the sched group containing the niced task to be the busiest group. - find_busiest_queue() will then always pick one of the cpus running the nice0 task (never picks the cpu with the nice -15 task since weighted_cpuload > imbalance). - The load balancer fails to migrate the task since it is the running task and increments sd->nr_balance_failed. - It repeats the above steps a few more times until sd->nr_balance_failed > 5, at which point it kicks off the active load balancer, wakes up the migration thread and kicks the nice 0 task off the cpu. The load balancer doesn't stop until we kick out all nice 0 tasks from the sched group, leaving you with 3 idle cpus and one cpu running the nice -15 task. When balancing at the NUMA domain, we drop sgs.group_capacity to 1 if the child domain (in this case MC) has SD_PREFER_SIBLING set. Subsequent load checks are not relevant because the niced task has a very large weight. In this patch, we add an extra condition to the "if(prefer_sibling)" check in update_sd_lb_stats(). We drop the capacity of a group only if the local group has extra capacity, ie. nr_running < group_capacity. This patch preserves the original intent of the prefer_siblings check (to spread tasks across the system in low utilization scenarios) and fixes the case above. It helps in the following ways: - In low utilization cases (where nr_tasks << nr_cpus), we still drop group_capacity down to 1 if we prefer siblings. - On very busy systems (where nr_tasks >> nr_cpus), sgs.nr_running will most likely be > sgs.group_capacity. - When balancing large weight tasks, if the local group does not have extra capacity, we do not pick the group with the niced task as the busiest group. This prevents failed balances, active migration and the under-utilization described above.

If it is, calculate the imbalance and return the higher busier thread as the busiest group to f_b_g(). Here we are assuming a lower CPU number will be equivalent to a lower SMT thread number. It also creates a new SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to enable this feature at any scheduler domain level. It also creates an arch hook to enable this feature at the sibling level.

sched: Add asymmetric group packing option for sibling domain Check to see if the group is packed in a sched doman. This is primarily intended to used at the sibling level. Some cores like POWER7 prefer to use lower numbered SMT threads. In the case of POWER7, it can move to lower SMT modes only when higher threads are idle. When in lower SMT modes, the threads will perform better since they share less core resources. Hence when we have idle threads, we want them to be the higher ones. This adds a hook into f_b_g() called check_asym_packing() to check the packing. This packing function is run on idle threads. It checks to see if the busiest CPU in this domain (core in the P7 case) has a higher CPU number than what where the packing function is being run on. If it is, calculate the imbalance and return the higher busier thread as the busiest group to f_b_g(). Here we are assuming a lower CPU number will be equivalent to a lower SMT thread number. It also creates a new SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to enable this feature at any scheduler domain level. It also creates an arch hook to enable this feature at the sibling level.

sched: replace migration_thread with cpu_stop 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.

Tasks thus pulled by balance_cpu could later get picked up by cpus that are in the same sched_group as that of balance_cpu. This scheme however fails to pull tasks that are not allowed to run on balance_cpu (but are allowed to run on other cpus in its sched_group). That can affect fairness and in some worst case scenarios cause starvation. Consider a two core (2 threads/core) system running tasks as below: Core0 Core1 / \ / \ C0 C1 C2 C3 | | | | v v v v F0 T1 F1 [idle] T2 F0 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C0) F1 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C2) T1 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1) T2 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1 and C2) F1 could become a cpu hog, which will starve T2 unless C1 pulls it. Between C0 and C1 however, C0 is required to look for imbalance between cores, which will fail to pull T2 towards Core0. T2 will starve eternally in this case. The same scenario can arise in presence of non-rt tasks as well (say we replace F1 with high irq load). We tackle this problem by having balance_cpu move pinned tasks to one of its sibling cpus (where they can run). We first check if load balance goal can be met by ignoring pinned tasks, failing which we retry move_tasks() with a new env->dst_cpu. This patch modifies load balance semantics on who can move load towards a given cpu in a given sched_domain. Before this patch, a given_cpu or a ilb_cpu acting on behalf of an idle given_cpu is responsible for moving load to given_cpu. With this patch applied, balance_cpu can in addition decide on moving some load to a given_cpu. There is a remote possibility that excess load could get moved as a result of this (balance_cpu and given_cpu/ilb_cpu deciding *independently* and at *same* time to move some load to a given_cpu). However we should see less of such conflicting decisions in practice and moreover subsequent load balance cycles should correct the excess load moved to given_cpu.

With that only the failed load balance in periodic load balance gets accounted and the rate of accumulation of cache_nice_tries will not depend on idle entry/exit (short running sleep-wakeup kind of tasks). This reduces movement of cache_hot tasks. schedstat diff (after-before) excerpt from a workload that has frequent and short wakeup-idle pattern (:2 in cpu col below refers to NEWIDLE idx) This snapshot was across ~400 seconds.

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.

Allocating this dynamically also allows for some build_sched_groups() simplification since we can now (like with other simplifications) rely on the sched_domain tree instead of hard-coded knowledge. One tricky to note is that detach_destroy_domains() needs to hold rcu_read_lock() over the entire tear-down, per-cpu is not sufficient since that can lead to partial sched_group existance (could possibly be solved by doing the tear-down backwards but this is much more robust). A concequence of the above is that we can no longer print the sched_domain debug stuff from cpu_attach_domain() since that might now run with preemption disabled (due to classic RCU etc.) and sched_domain_debug() does some GFP_KERNEL allocations. Another thing to note is that we now fully rely on normal RCU and not RCU-sched, this is because with the new and exiting RCU flavours we grew over the years BH doesn't necessarily hold off RCU-sched grace periods (-rt is known to break this). This would in fact already cause us grief since we do sched_domain/sched_group iterations from softirq context.

sched: replace migration_thread with cpu_stop 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.

sched: Dynamically allocate sched_domain/sched_group data-structures Instead of relying on static allocations for the sched_domain and sched_group trees, dynamically allocate and RCU free them. Allocating this dynamically also allows for some build_sched_groups() simplification since we can now (like with other simplifications) rely on the sched_domain tree instead of hard-coded knowledge. One tricky to note is that detach_destroy_domains() needs to hold rcu_read_lock() over the entire tear-down, per-cpu is not sufficient since that can lead to partial sched_group existance (could possibly be solved by doing the tear-down backwards but this is much more robust). A concequence of the above is that we can no longer print the sched_domain debug stuff from cpu_attach_domain() since that might now run with preemption disabled (due to classic RCU etc.) and sched_domain_debug() does some GFP_KERNEL allocations. Another thing to note is that we now fully rely on normal RCU and not RCU-sched, this is because with the new and exiting RCU flavours we grew over the years BH doesn't necessarily hold off RCU-sched grace periods (-rt is known to break this). This would in fact already cause us grief since we do sched_domain/sched_group iterations from softirq context. This patch is somewhat larger than I would like it to be, but I didn't find any means of shrinking/splitting this.

nohz: Rename CONFIG_NO_HZ to CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick, idle dynticks, full dynticks. As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure. It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now. So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ. On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default. But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into a circular dependency: 1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select CONFIG_NO_HZ 2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour. So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks (that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code) and select it from their referring Kconfig. Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ to it for backward compatibility.

sched: Change nohz idle load balancing logic to push model In the new push model, all idle CPUs indeed go into nohz mode. There is still the concept of idle load balancer (performing the load balancing on behalf of all the idle cpu's in the system). Busy CPU kicks the nohz balancer when any of the nohz CPUs need idle load balancing. The kickee CPU does the idle load balancing on behalf of all idle CPUs instead of the normal idle balance. This addresses the below two problems with the current nohz ilb logic: * the idle load balancer continued to have periodic ticks during idle and wokeup frequently, even though it did not have any rebalancing to do on behalf of any of the idle CPUs. * On x86 and CPUs that have APIC timer stoppage on idle CPUs, this periodic wakeup can result in a periodic additional interrupt on a CPU doing the timer broadcast. Also currently we are migrating the unpinned timers from an idle to the cpu doing idle load balancing (when all the cpus in the system are idle, there is no idle load balancing cpu and timers get added to the same idle cpu where the request was made. So the existing optimization works only on semi idle system). And In semi idle system, we no longer have periodic ticks on the idle load balancer CPU. Using that cpu will add more delays to the timers than intended (as that cpu's timer base may not be uptodate wrt jiffies etc). This was causing mysterious slowdowns during boot etc. For now, in the semi idle case, use the nearest busy cpu for migrating timers from an idle cpu. This is good for power-savings anyway.

sched: Remove stale power aware scheduling remnants and dysfunctional knobs It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ... so remove it to make space free for something better. There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to master and almost nobody does. Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads. So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs on every node of the topology. There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single 3 state knob: sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto } where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no progress on it in the past many months. Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable state. Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring people who care to come forward once again and work on a coherent replacement.

sched: Change nohz idle load balancing logic to push model In the new push model, all idle CPUs indeed go into nohz mode. There is still the concept of idle load balancer (performing the load balancing on behalf of all the idle cpu's in the system). Busy CPU kicks the nohz balancer when any of the nohz CPUs need idle load balancing. The kickee CPU does the idle load balancing on behalf of all idle CPUs instead of the normal idle balance. This addresses the below two problems with the current nohz ilb logic: * the idle load balancer continued to have periodic ticks during idle and wokeup frequently, even though it did not have any rebalancing to do on behalf of any of the idle CPUs. * On x86 and CPUs that have APIC timer stoppage on idle CPUs, this periodic wakeup can result in a periodic additional interrupt on a CPU doing the timer broadcast. Also currently we are migrating the unpinned timers from an idle to the cpu doing idle load balancing (when all the cpus in the system are idle, there is no idle load balancing cpu and timers get added to the same idle cpu where the request was made. So the existing optimization works only on semi idle system). And In semi idle system, we no longer have periodic ticks on the idle load balancer CPU. Using that cpu will add more delays to the timers than intended (as that cpu's timer base may not be uptodate wrt jiffies etc). This was causing mysterious slowdowns during boot etc. For now, in the semi idle case, use the nearest busy cpu for migrating timers from an idle cpu. This is good for power-savings anyway.

sched: Fix init NOHZ_IDLE flag On my SMP platform which is made of 5 cores in 2 clusters, I have the nr_busy_cpu field of sched_group_power struct that is not null when the platform is fully idle - which makes the scheduler unhappy. The root cause is: During the boot sequence, some CPUs reach the idle loop and set their NOHZ_IDLE flag while waiting for others CPUs to boot. But the nr_busy_cpus field is initialized later with the assumption that all CPUs are in the busy state whereas some CPUs have already set their NOHZ_IDLE flag. More generally, the NOHZ_IDLE flag must be initialized when new sched_domains are created in order to ensure that NOHZ_IDLE and nr_busy_cpus are aligned. This condition can be ensured by adding a synchronize_rcu() between the destruction of old sched_domains and the creation of new ones so the NOHZ_IDLE flag will not be updated with old sched_domain once it has been initialized. But this solution introduces a additionnal latency in the rebuild sequence that is called during cpu hotplug. As suggested by Frederic Weisbecker, another solution is to have the same rcu lifecycle for both NOHZ_IDLE and sched_domain struct. A new nohz_idle field is added to sched_domain so both status and sched_domain will share the same RCU lifecycle and will be always synchronized. In addition, there is no more need to protect nohz_idle against concurrent access as it is only modified by 2 exclusive functions called by local cpu.

sched: Dynamically allocate sched_domain/sched_group data-structures Instead of relying on static allocations for the sched_domain and sched_group trees, dynamically allocate and RCU free them. Allocating this dynamically also allows for some build_sched_groups() simplification since we can now (like with other simplifications) rely on the sched_domain tree instead of hard-coded knowledge. One tricky to note is that detach_destroy_domains() needs to hold rcu_read_lock() over the entire tear-down, per-cpu is not sufficient since that can lead to partial sched_group existance (could possibly be solved by doing the tear-down backwards but this is much more robust). A concequence of the above is that we can no longer print the sched_domain debug stuff from cpu_attach_domain() since that might now run with preemption disabled (due to classic RCU etc.) and sched_domain_debug() does some GFP_KERNEL allocations. Another thing to note is that we now fully rely on normal RCU and not RCU-sched, this is because with the new and exiting RCU flavours we grew over the years BH doesn't necessarily hold off RCU-sched grace periods (-rt is known to break this). This would in fact already cause us grief since we do sched_domain/sched_group iterations from softirq context. This patch is somewhat larger than I would like it to be, but I didn't find any means of shrinking/splitting this.

nohz: Rename CONFIG_NO_HZ to CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick, idle dynticks, full dynticks. As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure. It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now. So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ. On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default. But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into a circular dependency: 1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select CONFIG_NO_HZ 2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour. So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks (that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code) and select it from their referring Kconfig. Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ to it for backward compatibility.

sched: Remove unnecessary iteration over sched domains to update nr_busy_cpus nr_busy_cpus parameter is used by nohz_kick_needed() to find out the number of busy cpus in a sched domain which has SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES flag set. Therefore instead of updating nr_busy_cpus at every level of sched domain, since it is irrelevant, we can update this parameter only at the parent domain of the sd which has this flag set. Introduce a per-cpu parameter sd_busy which represents this parent domain. In nohz_kick_needed() we directly query the nr_busy_cpus parameter associated with the groups of sd_busy. By associating sd_busy with the highest domain which has SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES flag set, we cover all lower level domains which could have this flag set and trigger nohz_idle_balancing if any of the levels have more than one busy cpu. sd_busy is irrelevant for asymmetric load balancing. However sd_asym has been introduced to represent the highest sched domain which has SD_ASYM_PACKING flag set so that it can be queried directly when required. While we are at it, we might as well change the nohz_idle parameter to be updated at the sd_busy domain level alone and not the base domain level of a CPU. This will unify the concept of busy cpus at just one level of sched domain where it is currently used.

nohz: Rename CONFIG_NO_HZ to CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick, idle dynticks, full dynticks. As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure. It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now. So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ. On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default. But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into a circular dependency: 1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select CONFIG_NO_HZ 2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour. So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks (that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code) and select it from their referring Kconfig. Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ to it for backward compatibility.

sched: Change nohz idle load balancing logic to push model In the new push model, all idle CPUs indeed go into nohz mode. There is still the concept of idle load balancer (performing the load balancing on behalf of all the idle cpu's in the system). Busy CPU kicks the nohz balancer when any of the nohz CPUs need idle load balancing. The kickee CPU does the idle load balancing on behalf of all idle CPUs instead of the normal idle balance. This addresses the below two problems with the current nohz ilb logic: * the idle load balancer continued to have periodic ticks during idle and wokeup frequently, even though it did not have any rebalancing to do on behalf of any of the idle CPUs. * On x86 and CPUs that have APIC timer stoppage on idle CPUs, this periodic wakeup can result in a periodic additional interrupt on a CPU doing the timer broadcast. Also currently we are migrating the unpinned timers from an idle to the cpu doing idle load balancing (when all the cpus in the system are idle, there is no idle load balancing cpu and timers get added to the same idle cpu where the request was made. So the existing optimization works only on semi idle system). And In semi idle system, we no longer have periodic ticks on the idle load balancer CPU. Using that cpu will add more delays to the timers than intended (as that cpu's timer base may not be uptodate wrt jiffies etc). This was causing mysterious slowdowns during boot etc. For now, in the semi idle case, use the nearest busy cpu for migrating timers from an idle cpu. This is good for power-savings anyway.

In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about scheduling. In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9. The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are mel: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108 mingo: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331 tglx: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437 srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397 The results are a mixed bag. In my own tests, balancenuma does reasonably well. It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against mainline. On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts. Thomas' results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of numacore or autonuma. Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a large machine with imbalanced node sizes. My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally. We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of migration even when it shows that overall performance is better. There are also cases where it regresses. Of interest is that for specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports. Recently I reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of this problem is. Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case. It's possible numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration. These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks." * tag 'balancenuma-v11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux-balancenuma: (50 commits) mm/rmap, migration: Make rmap_walk_anon() and try_to_unmap_anon() more scalable mm/rmap: Convert the struct anon_vma::mutex to an rwsem mm: migrate: Account a transhuge page properly when rate limiting mm: numa: Account for failed allocations and isolations as migration failures mm: numa: Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case build fix mm: numa: Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case. mm: sched: numa: Delay PTE scanning until a task is scheduled on a new node mm: sched: numa: Control enabling and disabling of NUMA balancing if !SCHED_DEBUG mm: sched: numa: Control enabling and disabling of NUMA balancing mm: sched: Adapt the scanning rate if a NUMA hinting fault does not migrate mm: numa: Use a two-stage filter to restrict pages being migrated for unlikely task<->node relationships mm: numa: migrate: Set last_nid on newly allocated page mm: numa: split_huge_page: Transfer last_nid on tail page mm: numa: Introduce last_nid to the page frame sched: numa: Slowly increase the scanning period as NUMA faults are handled mm: numa: Rate limit setting of pte_numa if node is saturated mm: numa: Rate limit the amount of memory that is migrated between nodes mm: numa: Structures for Migrate On Fault per NUMA migration rate limiting mm: numa: Migrate pages handled during a pmd_numa hinting fault mm: numa: Migrate on reference policy ...

sched: Remove the cfs_rq dependency from set_task_cpu() 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.

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.

nohz: Rename CONFIG_NO_HZ to CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick, idle dynticks, full dynticks. As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure. It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now. So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ. On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default. But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into a circular dependency: 1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select CONFIG_NO_HZ 2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour. So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks (that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code) and select it from their referring Kconfig. Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ to it for backward compatibility.
