545a2bf742 kernel/sched/clock.c: add another clock for use with the soft lockup watchdog
When the hypervisor pauses a virtualised kernel the kernel will observe a
jump in timebase, this can cause spurious messages from the softlockup
detector.

Whilst these messages are harmless, they are accompanied with a stack
trace which causes undue concern and more problematically the stack trace
in the guest has nothing to do with the observed problem and can only be
misleading.

Futhermore, on POWER8 this is completely avoidable with the introduction
of the Virtual Time Base (VTB) register.

This patch (of 2):

This permits the use of arch specific clocks for which virtualised kernels
can use their notion of 'running' time, not the elpased wall time which
will include host execution time.

The "thread would block" case can be checked without grabbing ->wait.lock.

[ If the check does not return early then grab the lock and recheck.
  A memory barrier is not needed as complete() and complete_all() imply
  a barrier.

  The ACCESS_ONCE() is needed for calls in a loop that, if inlined, could

bfd9b2b5f8 sched: Pull resched loop to __schedule() callers
__schedule() disables preemption during its job and re-enables it
afterward without doing a preemption check to avoid recursion.

But if an event happens after the context switch which requires
rescheduling, we need to check again if a task of a higher priority
needs the CPU. A preempt irq can raise such a situation. To handle that,
__schedule() loops on need_resched().

But preempt_schedule_*() functions, which call __schedule(), also loop
on need_resched() to handle missed preempt irqs. Hence we end up with
the same loop happening twice.

Lets simplify that by attributing the need_resched() loop responsibility
to all __schedule() callers.

There is a risk that the outer loop now handles reschedules that used
to be handled by the inner loop with the added overhead of caller details
(inc/dec of PREEMPT_ACTIVE, irq save/restore) but assuming those inner
rescheduling loop weren't too frequent, this shouldn't matter. Especially
since the whole preemption path is now losing one loop in any case.

9659e1eeee sched/deadline: Remove cpu_active_mask from cpudl_find()
cpu_active_mask is rarely changed (only on hotplug), so remove this
operation to gain a little performance.

If there is a change in cpu_active_mask, rq_online_dl() and
rq_offline_dl() should take care of it normally, so cpudl::free_cpus
carries enough information for us.

For the rare case when a task is put onto a dying cpu (which
rq_offline_dl() can't handle in a timely fashion), it will be
handled through _cpu_down()->...->multi_cpu_stop()->migration_call()
->migrate_tasks(), preventing the task from hanging on the
dead cpu.

1019a359d3 sched/deadline: Fix stale yield state
When we fail to start the deadline timer in update_curr_dl(), we
forget to clear ->dl_yielded, resulting in wrecked time keeping.

Since the natural place to clear both ->dl_yielded and ->dl_throttled
is in replenish_dl_entity(); both are after all waiting for that event;
make it so.

Luckily since 67dfa1b756 ("sched/deadline: Implement
cancel_dl_timer() to use in switched_from_dl()") the
task_on_rq_queued() condition in dl_task_timer() must be true, and can
therefore call enqueue_task_dl() unconditionally.

40767b0dc7 sched/deadline: Fix deadline parameter modification handling
Commit 67dfa1b756 ("sched/deadline: Implement cancel_dl_timer() to
use in switched_from_dl()") removed the hrtimer_try_cancel() function
call out from init_dl_task_timer(), which gets called from
__setparam_dl().

The result is that we can now re-init the timer while its active --
this is bad and corrupts timer state.

Furthermore; changing the parameters of an active deadline task is
tricky in that you want to maintain guarantees, while immediately
effective change would allow one to circumvent the CBS guarantees --
this too is bad, as one (bad) task should not be able to affect the
others.

Rework things to avoid both problems. We only need to initialize the
timer once, so move that to __sched_fork() for new tasks.

Then make sure __setparam_dl() doesn't affect the current running
state but only updates the parameters used to calculate the next
scheduling period -- this guarantees the CBS functions as expected
(albeit slightly pessimistic).

This however means we need to make sure __dl_clear_params() needs to
reset the active state otherwise new (and tasks flipping between
classes) will not properly (re)compute their first instance.

Todo: close class flipping CBS hole.
Todo: implement delayed BW release.

00845eb968 sched: don't cause task state changes in nested sleep debugging
Commit 8eb23b9f35 ("sched: Debug nested sleeps") added code to report
on nested sleep conditions, which we generally want to avoid because the
inner sleeping operation can re-set the thread state to TASK_RUNNING,
but that will then cause the outer sleep loop not actually sleep when it
calls schedule.

However, that's actually valid traditional behavior, with the inner
sleep being some fairly rare case (like taking a sleeping lock that
normally doesn't actually need to sleep).

And the debug code would actually change the state of the task to
TASK_RUNNING internally, which makes that kind of traditional and
working code not work at all, because now the nested sleep doesn't just
sometimes cause the outer one to not block, but will cause it to happen
every time.

In particular, it will cause the cardbus kernel daemon (pccardd) to
basically busy-loop doing scheduling, converting a laptop into a heater,
as reported by Bruno Prémont.  But there may be other legacy uses of
that nested sleep model in other drivers that are also likely to never
get converted to the new model.

This fixes both cases:

 - don't set TASK_RUNNING when the nested condition happens (note: even
   if WARN_ONCE() only _warns_ once, the return value isn't whether the
   warning happened, but whether the condition for the warning was true.
   So despite the warning only happening once, the "if (WARN_ON(..))"
   would trigger for every nested sleep.

 - in the cases where we knowingly disable the warning by using
   "sched_annotate_sleep()", don't change the task state (that is used
   for all core scheduling decisions), instead use '->task_state_change'
   that is used for the debugging decision itself.

(Credit for the second part of the fix goes to Oleg Nesterov: "Can't we
avoid this subtle change in behaviour DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP adds?" with the
suggested change to use 'task_state_change' as part of the test)

16b269436b sched/deadline: Modify cpudl::free_cpus to reflect rd->online
Currently, cpudl::free_cpus contains all CPUs during init, see

to avoid selecting the cpu outside the current root domain, because
cpus_allowed cannot be depended on when performing clustered
scheduling using the cpuset, see find_later_rq().

This patch adds cpudl_set_freecpu() and cpudl_clear_freecpu() for
changing cpudl::free_cpus when doing rq_online_dl()/rq_offline_dl(),
so we can avoid the rd->span operation when calling cpudl_find()

cpu_idle_poll() is tif_need_resched().

However this does not take into account scenarios where cpu_idle_force_poll
changes or tick_check_broadcast_expired() returns false, without setting
the resched flag. So a cpu will be caught in cpu_idle_poll() needlessly,
thereby wasting power. Add an explicit check on cpu_idle_force_poll and
tick_check_broadcast_expired() to the exit condition of cpu_idle_poll()
to avoid this.

a18b5d0181 sched: Fix missing preemption opportunity
If an interrupt fires in cond_resched(), between the call to __schedule()
and the PREEMPT_ACTIVE count decrementation, and that interrupt sets
TIF_NEED_RESCHED, the call to preempt_schedule_irq() will be ignored
due to the PREEMPT_ACTIVE count. This kind of scenario, with irq preemption
being delayed because it's interrupting a preempt-disabled area, is
usually fixed up after preemption is re-enabled back with an explicit
call to preempt_schedule().

This is what preempt_enable() does but a raw preempt count decrement as
performed by __preempt_count_sub(PREEMPT_ACTIVE) doesn't handle delayed
preemption check. Therefore when such a race happens, the rescheduling
is going to be delayed until the next scheduler or preemption entrypoint.
This can be a problem for scheduler latency sensitive workloads.

Lets fix that by consolidating cond_resched() with preempt_schedule()
internals.

81907478c4 sched/fair: Avoid using uninitialized variable in preferred_group_nid()
At least some gcc versions - validly afaict - warn about potentially
using max_group uninitialized: There's no way the compiler can prove
that the body of the conditional where it and max_faults get set/
updated gets executed; in fact, without knowing all the details of
other scheduler code, I can't prove this either.

Generally the necessary change would appear to be to clear max_group
prior to entering the inner loop, and break out of the outer loop when
it ends up being all clear after the inner one. This, however, seems
inefficient, and afaict the same effect can be achieved by exiting the
outer loop when max_faults is still zero after the inner loop.

[ mingo: changed the solution to zero initialization: uninitialized_var()
  needs to die, as it's an actively dangerous construct: if in the future
  a known-proven-good piece of code is changed to have a true, buggy
  uninitialized variable, the compiler warning is then supressed...

  The better long term solution is to clean up the code flow, so that
  even simple minded compilers (and humans!) are able to read it without
  getting a headache.  ]

86038c5ea8 perf: Avoid horrible stack usage
Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf
related callbacks have massive stack bloat.

The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to
properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we
could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled
it with minimal bits required for operation.

Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it
turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available,
making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste.

This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events
have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static
per-cpu storage instead of on-stack.

Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers
of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular
perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be
optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler.

We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs()
like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler
and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the
recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs
element to use).

One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we
allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs
pointer available and do not need another.

9edfbfed3f sched/core: Rework rq->clock update skips
The original purpose of rq::skip_clock_update was to avoid 'costly' clock
updates for back to back wakeup-preempt pairs. The big problem with it
has always been that the rq variable is unaware of the context and
causes indiscrimiate clock skips.

Rework the entire thing and create a sense of context by only allowing
schedule() to skip clock updates. (XXX can we measure the cost of the
added store?)

By ensuring only schedule can ever skip an update, we guarantee we're
never more than 1 tick behind on the update.

269ad8015a sched/deadline: Avoid double-accounting in case of missed deadlines
The dl_runtime_exceeded() function is supposed to ckeck if
a SCHED_DEADLINE task must be throttled, by checking if its
current runtime is <= 0. However, it also checks if the
scheduling deadline has been missed (the current time is
larger than the current scheduling deadline), further
decreasing the runtime if this happens.
This "double accounting" is wrong:

- In case of partitioned scheduling (or single CPU), this
  happens if task_tick_dl() has been called later than expected
  (due to small HZ values). In this case, the current runtime is
  also negative, and replenish_dl_entity() can take care of the
  deadline miss by recharging the current runtime to a value smaller
  than dl_runtime

- In case of global scheduling on multiple CPUs, scheduling
  deadlines can be missed even if the task did not consume more
  runtime than expected, hence penalizing the task is wrong

This patch fix this problem by throttling a SCHED_DEADLINE task
only when its runtime becomes negative, and not modifying the runtime

6a503c3be9 sched/deadline: Fix migration of SCHED_DEADLINE tasks
According to global EDF, tasks should be migrated between runqueues
without checking if their scheduling deadlines and runtimes are valid.
However, SCHED_DEADLINE currently performs such a check:
a migration happens doing:

	deactivate_task(rq, next_task, 0);
	set_task_cpu(next_task, later_rq->cpu);
	activate_task(later_rq, next_task, 0);

which ends up calling dequeue_task_dl(), setting the new CPU, and then
calling enqueue_task_dl().

enqueue_task_dl() then calls enqueue_dl_entity(), which calls
update_dl_entity(), which can modify scheduling deadline and runtime,
breaking global EDF scheduling.

As a result, some of the properties of global EDF are not respected:
for example, a taskset {(30, 80), (40, 80), (120, 170)} scheduled on
two cores can have unbounded response times for the third task even
if 30/80+40/80+120/170 = 1.5809 < 2

This can be fixed by invoking update_dl_entity() only in case of
wakeup, or if this is a new SCHED_DEADLINE task.

b74e6278fd sched: Fix KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE overflow during cpumask allocation
When allocating space for load_balance_mask, in sched_init, when
CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set, we've managed to spill over
KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE on our 6144 core machine.  The patch below
breaks up the allocations so that they don't overflow the max
alloc size.  It also allocates the masks on the the node from
which they'll most commonly be accessed, to minimize remote
accesses on NUMA machines.

a90e984c8a sched_show_task: fix unsafe usage of ->real_parent
rcu_read_lock() can not protect p->real_parent if release_task(p) was
already called, change sched_show_task() to check pis_alive() like other
users do.

Note: we need some helpers to cleanup the code like this.  And it seems
that that the usage of cpu_curr(cpu) in dump_cpu_task() is not safe too.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle are:

   - 'Nested Sleep Debugging', activated when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.

     This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest
     blocking primitives - such as mutex usage in a wait loop.  Such
     bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs.

     Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect
     is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() ->
     sched_submit_work() -> blk_schedule_flush_plug().

     There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking
     primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the
     kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning
     isn't much of a nuisance.

     This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered
     with it, so no messages are expected normally.

   - Another round of sched/numa optimizations and refinements, for
     CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y.

   - Another round of sched/dl fixes and refinements.

  Plus various smaller fixes and cleanups"

fd7de1e8d5 sched: Add missing rcu protection to wake_up_all_idle_cpus
Locklessly doing is_idle_task(rq->curr) is only okay because of
RCU protection.  The older variant of the broken code checked
rq->curr == rq->idle instead and therefore didn't need RCU.

7cc78f8fa0 context_tracking: Restore previous state in schedule_user
It appears that some SCHEDULE_USER (asm for schedule_user) callers
in arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S are called from RCU kernel context,
and schedule_user will return in RCU user context.  This causes RCU
warnings and possible failures.

This is intended to be a minimal fix suitable for 3.18.

90e362f4a7 sched: Provide update_curr callbacks for stop/idle scheduling classes
Chris bisected a NULL pointer deference in task_sched_runtime() to
commit 6e998916df 'sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime()
inconsistency'.

Chris observed crashes in atop or other /proc walking programs when he
started fork bombs on his machine.  He assumed that this is a new exit
race, but that does not make any sense when looking at that commit.

What's interesting is that, the commit provides update_curr callbacks
for all scheduling classes except stop_task and idle_task.

While nothing can ever hit that via the clock_nanosleep() and
clock_gettime() interfaces, which have been the target of the commit in
question, the author obviously forgot that there are other code paths
which invoke task_sched_runtime()

do_task_stat(()
 thread_group_cputime_adjusted()
   thread_group_cputime()
     task_cputime()
       task_sched_runtime()
        if (task_current(rq, p) && task_on_rq_queued(p)) {
          update_rq_clock(rq);
          up->sched_class->update_curr(rq);
        }

If the stats are read for a stomp machine task, aka 'migration/N' and
that task is current on its cpu, this will happily call the NULL pointer
of stop_task->update_curr.  Ooops.

Chris observation that this happens faster when he runs the fork bomb
makes sense as the fork bomb will kick migration threads more often so
the probability to hit the issue will increase.

Add the missing update_curr callbacks to the scheduler classes stop_task
and idle_task.  While idle tasks cannot be monitored via /proc we have
other means to hit the idle case.
