Laurent Vivier 5e84cfde51 sched: guest CPU accounting: add guest-CPU /proc/stat field
as recent CPUs introduce a third running state, after "user" and
"system", we need a new field, "guest", in cpustat to store the time
used by the CPU to run virtual CPU. Modify /proc/stat to display this
new field.

Milton Miller ad1cdc1d78 sched: domain sysctl fixes: do not crash on allocation failure
Now that we are calling this at runtime, a more relaxed error path is
suggested.  If an allocation fails, we just register the partial table,
which will show empty directories.

Unregister and free the sysctl table before destroying domains, then
rebuild and register after creating the new domains.  This prevents the

Milton Miller 97b6ea7b63 sched: domain sysctl fixes: use for_each_online_cpu()
init_sched_domain_sysctl was walking cpus 0-n and referencing per_cpu
variables.  If the cpus_possible mask is not contigious this will result
in a crash referencing unallocated data.  If the online mask is not
contigious then we would show offline cpus and miss online ones.

Arjan van de Ven 0dbee3a6b0 Make scheduler debug file operations const
In general, struct file_operations are const in the kernel, to not have
false cacheline sharing and to catch bugs at compiletime with accidental

Dmitry Adamushko a4ec24b48d sched: tidy up SCHED_RR

dependent on task's static_prio [1] ;
- remove obsolete code (timeslice related bits);
- make sched_rr_get_interval() return something more
meaningful [2] for SCHED_OTHER tasks.

[1] according to the following link, it's not compliant with SUSv3
(not sure though, what is the reference for us :-)
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/3/7/656

[2] the interval is dynamic and can be depicted as follows "should a
task be one of the runnable tasks at this particular moment, it would
expect to run for this interval of time before being re-scheduled by the
scheduler tick".
(i.e. it's more precise if a task is runnable at the moment)

yeah, this seems to require task_rq_lock/unlock() but this is not a hot
path.

results:

(SCHED_FIFO)

dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt -f 10 ./rr_interval 
time_slice: 0 : 0

(SCHED_RR)

dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt 10 ./rr_interval 
time_slice: 0 : 99984800

(SCHED_NORMAL)

dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ ./rr_interval 
time_slice: 0 : 19996960

(SCHED_NORMAL + a cpu_hog of similar 'weight' on the same CPU --- so should be a half of the previous result)

first_fair(cfs_rq) == NULL. It wouldn't be a problem, should 'run_node'
be the very first field of 'struct sched_entity' (and it's the second).

The 'nr_running != 0' check is _not_ enough, due to the fact that
'current' is not within the tree. Generic paths are ok (e.g. schedule()
as put_prev_task() is called previously)... I'm more worried about e.g.
migration_call() -> CPU_DEAD_FROZEN -> migrate_dead_tasks()... if
'current' == rq->idle, no problems.. if it's one of the SCHED_NORMAL
tasks (or imagine, some other use-cases in the future -- i.e. we should
not make outer world dependent on internal details of sched_fair class)
-- it may be "Houston, we've got a problem" case.

it's +16 bytes to the ".text". Another variant is to make 'run_node' the
first data member of 'struct sched_entity' but an additional check (se !
= NULL) is still needed in pick_next_entity().
