weighted_cpuload() uses the cpu number passed to it get pointer to the
runqueue. Almost all callers of weighted_cpuload() already have the rq
pointer with them and can send that directly to weighted_cpuload(). In
some cases the callers actually get the CPU number by doing cpu_of(rq).
It would be simpler to pass rq to weighted_cpuload().

For SMP systems, update_load_avg() calls the cpufreq update util
handlers only for the top level cfs_rq (i.e. rq->cfs).
But that is not the case for UP systems. update_load_avg() calls util
handler for any cfs_rq for which it is called. This would result in way
too many calls from the scheduler to the cpufreq governors when
CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is enabled.
Reduce the frequency of these calls by copying the behavior from the SMP
case, i.e. Only call util handlers for the top level cfs_rq.

If load_balance() fails to migrate any tasks because all tasks were
affined, load_balance() removes the source CPU from consideration and
attempts to redo and balance among the new subset of CPUs.
There is a bug in this code path where the algorithm considers all active
CPUs in the system (minus the source that was just masked out). This is
not valid for two reasons: some active CPUs may not be in the current
scheduling domain and one of the active CPUs is dst_cpu. These CPUs should
not be considered, as we cannot pull load from them.
Instead of failing out of load_balance(), we may end up redoing the search
with no valid CPUs and incorrectly concluding the domain is balanced.
Additionally, if the group_imbalance flag was just set, it may also be
incorrectly unset, thus the flag will not be seen by other CPUs in future
load_balance() runs as that algorithm intends.
Fix the check by removing CPUs not in the current domain and the dst_cpu
from considertation, thus limiting the evaluation to valid remaining CPUs
from which load might be migrated.

Although idle load balancing obviously only concerns idle CPUs, it can
be a disturbance on a busy nohz_full CPU. Indeed a CPU can only get rid
of an idle load balancing duty once a tick fires while it runs a task
and this can take a while on a nohz_full CPU.
We could fix that and escape the idle load balancing duty from the very
idle exit path but that would bring unecessary overhead. Lets just not
bother and leave that job to housekeeping CPUs (those outside nohz_full
range). The nohz_full CPUs simply don't want any disturbance.

Hackbench recently suffered a bunch of pain, first by commit:
4c77b18cf8 ("sched/fair: Make select_idle_cpu() more aggressive")
and then by commit:
c743f0a5c5 ("sched/fair, cpumask: Export for_each_cpu_wrap()")
which fixed a bug in the initial for_each_cpu_wrap() implementation
that made select_idle_cpu() even more expensive. The bug was that it
would skip over CPUs when bits were consequtive in the bitmask.
This however gave me an idea to fix select_idle_cpu(); where the old
scheme was a cliff-edge throttle on idle scanning, this introduces a
more gradual approach. Instead of stopping to scan entirely, we limit
how many CPUs we scan.
Initial benchmarks show that it mostly recovers hackbench while not
hurting anything else, except Mason's schbench, but not as bad as the
old thing.
It also appears to recover the tbench high-end, which also suffered like
hackbench.

[<ffffffff81098322>] task_work_run+0x72/0x90
Further investigation showed that the lock contention here is pmd_lock().
The task_numa_work() function makes sure that only one thread is let to perform
the work in a single scan period (via cmpxchg), but if there's a thread with
mmap_sem locked for writing for several periods, multiple threads in
task_numa_work() can build up a convoy waiting for mmap_sem for read and then
all get unblocked at once.
This patch changes the down_read() to the trylock version, which prevents the
build up. For a workload experiencing mmap_sem contention, it's probably better
to postpone the NUMA balancing work anyway. This seems to have fixed the soft
lockups involving pmd_lock(), which is in line with the convoy theory.

Currently, rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list is a traversal ordered list of all
live cfs_rqs which have ever been active on the CPU; unfortunately,
this makes update_blocked_averages() O(# total cgroups) which isn't
scalable at all.
This shows up as a small CPU consumption and scheduling latency
increase in the load balancing path in systems with CPU controller
enabled across most cgroups. In an edge case where temporary cgroups
were leaking, this caused the kernel to consume good several tens of
percents of CPU cycles running update_blocked_averages(), each run
taking multiple millisecs.
This patch fixes the issue by taking empty and fully decayed cfs_rqs
off the rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list.

In the current implementation of load/util_avg, we assume that the
ongoing time segment has fully elapsed, and util/load_sum is divided
by LOAD_AVG_MAX, even if part of the time segment still remains to
run. As a consequence, this remaining part is considered as idle time
and generates unexpected variations of util_avg of a busy CPU in the
range [1002..1024[ whereas util_avg should stay at 1023.
In order to keep the metric stable, we should not consider the ongoing
time segment when computing load/util_avg but only the segments that
have already fully elapsed. But to not consider the current time
segment adds unwanted latency in the load/util_avg responsivness
especially when the time is scaled instead of the contribution.
Instead of waiting for the current time segment to have fully elapsed
before accounting it in load/util_avg, we can already account the
elapsed part but change the range used to compute load/util_avg
accordingly.
At the very beginning of a new time segment, the past segments have
been decayed and the max value is LOAD_AVG_MAX*y. At the very end of
the current time segment, the max value becomes:
LOAD_AVG_MAX*y + 1024(us) (== LOAD_AVG_MAX)
In fact, the max value is:
LOAD_AVG_MAX*y + sa->period_contrib
at any time in the time segment.
Taking advantage of the fact that:
LOAD_AVG_MAX*y == LOAD_AVG_MAX-1024
the range becomes [0..LOAD_AVG_MAX-1024+sa->period_contrib].
As the elapsed part is already accounted in load/util_sum, we update
the max value according to the current position in the time segment
instead of removing its contribution.

Paul noticed that in the (periods >= LOAD_AVG_MAX_N) case in
__accumulate_sum(), the returned contribution value (LOAD_AVG_MAX) is
incorrect.
This is because at this point, the decay_load() on the old state --
the first step in accumulate_sum() -- will not have resulted in 0, and
will therefore result in a sum larger than the maximum value of our
series. Obviously broken.
Note that:
decay_load(LOAD_AVG_MAX, LOAD_AVG_MAX_N) =
1 (345 / 32)
47742 * - ^ = ~27
2
Not to mention that any further contribution from the d3 segment (our
new period) would also push it over the maximum.
Solve this by noting that we can write our c2 term:
p
c2 = 1024 \Sum y^n
n=1
In terms of our maximum value:
inf inf p
max = 1024 \Sum y^n = 1024 ( \Sum y^n + \Sum y^n + y^0 )
n=0 n=p+1 n=1
Further note that:
inf inf inf
( \Sum y^n ) y^p = \Sum y^(n+p) = \Sum y^n
n=0 n=0 n=p
Combined that gives us:
p
c2 = 1024 \Sum y^n
n=1
inf inf
= 1024 ( \Sum y^n - \Sum y^n - y^0 )
n=0 n=p+1
= max - (max y^(p+1)) - 1024
Further simplify things by dealing with p=0 early on.

Fixes: a481db34b9 ("sched/fair: Optimize ___update_sched_avg()")
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
The main PELT function ___update_load_avg(), which implements the
accumulation and progression of the geometric average series, is
implemented along the following lines for the scenario where the time
delta spans all 3 possible sections (see figure below):
1. add the remainder of the last incomplete period
2. decay old sum
3. accumulate new sum in full periods since last_update_time
4. accumulate the current incomplete period
5. update averages
Or:
d1 d2 d3
^ ^ ^
| | |
|<->|<----------------->|<--->|
... |---x---|------| ... |------|-----x (now)
load_sum' = (load_sum + weight * scale * d1) * y^(p+1) + (1,2)
p
weight * scale * 1024 * \Sum y^n + (3)
n=1
weight * scale * d3 * y^0 (4)
load_avg' = load_sum' / LOAD_AVG_MAX (5)
Where:
d1 - is the delta part completing the remainder of the last
incomplete period,
d2 - is the delta part spannind complete periods, and
d3 - is the delta part starting the current incomplete period.
We can simplify the code in two steps; the first step is to separate
the first term into new and old parts like:
(load_sum + weight * scale * d1) * y^(p+1) = load_sum * y^(p+1) +
weight * scale * d1 * y^(p+1)
Once we've done that, its easy to see that all new terms carry the
common factors:
weight * scale
If we factor those out, we arrive at the form:
load_sum' = load_sum * y^(p+1) +
weight * scale * (d1 * y^(p+1) +
p
1024 * \Sum y^n +
n=1
d3 * y^0)
Which results in a simpler, smaller and faster implementation.

The __update_load_avg() function is an __always_inline because its
used with constant propagation to generate different variants of the
code without having to duplicate it (which would be prone to bugs).
Explicitly instantiate the 3 variants.
Note that most of this is called from rather hot paths, so reducing
branches is good.

If the child domain prefers tasks to go siblings, the local group could
end up pulling tasks to itself even if the local group is almost equally
loaded as the source group.
Lets assume a 4 core,smt==2 machine running 5 thread ebizzy workload.
Everytime, local group has capacity and source group has atleast 2 threads,
local group tries to pull the task. This causes the threads to constantly
move between different cores. This is even more profound if the cores have
more threads, like in Power 8, smt 8 mode.
Fix this by only allowing local group to pull a task, if the source group
has more number of tasks than the local group.
Here are the relevant perf stat numbers of a 22 core,smt 8 Power 8 machine.

A regression of the FTQ noise has been reported by Ying Huang,
on the following hardware:
8 threads Intel(R) Core(TM)i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz with 8G memory
... which was caused by this commit:
commit 4e5160766f ("sched/fair: Propagate asynchrous detach")
The only part of the patch that can increase the noise is the update
of blocked load of group entity in update_blocked_averages().
We can optimize this call and skip the update of group entity if its load
and utilization are already null and there is no pending propagation of load
in the task group.
This optimization partly restores the noise score. A more agressive
optimization has been tried but has shown worse score.

The missing update_rq_clock() check can work with partial rq->lock
wrappery, since a missing wrapper can cause the warning to not be
emitted when it should have, but cannot cause the warning to trigger
when it should not have.
The duplicate update_rq_clock() check however can cause false warnings
to trigger. Therefore add more comprehensive rq->lock wrappery.

sched/clock, x86/tsc: Rework the x86 'unstable' sched_clock() interface
sched/core: Fix pick_next_task() for RT,DL

Kitsunyan reported desktop latency issues on his Celeron 887 because
of commit:
1b568f0aab ("sched/core: Optimize SCHED_SMT")
... even though his CPU doesn't do SMT.
The effect of running the SMT code on a !SMT part is basically a more
aggressive select_idle_cpu(). Removing the avg condition fixed things
for him.
I also know FB likes this test gone, even though other workloads like
having it.
For now, take it out by default, until we get a better idea.

Also, the wrapper makes the code longer than the original expression!

The update of the share of a cfs_rq is done when its load_avg is updated
but before the group_entity's load_avg has been updated for the past time
slot. This generates wrong load_avg accounting which can be significant
when small tasks are involved in the scheduling.
Let take the example of a task a that is dequeued of its task group A:
root
(cfs_rq)
\
(se)
A
(cfs_rq)
\
(se)
a
Task "a" was the only task in task group A which becomes idle when a is
dequeued.
We have the sequence:
- dequeue_entity a->se
- update_load_avg(a->se)
- dequeue_entity_load_avg(A->cfs_rq, a->se)
- update_cfs_shares(A->cfs_rq)
A->cfs_rq->load.weight == 0
A->se->load.weight is updated with the new share (0 in this case)
- dequeue_entity A->se
- update_load_avg(A->se) but its weight is now null so the last time
slot (up to a tick) will be accounted with a weight of 0 instead of
its real weight during the time slot. The last time slot will be
accounted as an idle one whereas it was a running one.
If the running time of task a is short enough that no tick happens when it
runs, all running time of group entity A->se will be accounted as idle
time.
Instead, we should update the share of a cfs_rq (in fact the weight of its
group entity) only after having updated the load_avg of the group_entity.
update_cfs_shares() now takes the sched_entity as a parameter instead of the
cfs_rq, and the weight of the group_entity is updated only once its load_avg
has been synced with current time.

find_idlest_group() only compares the runnable_load_avg when looking
for the least loaded group. But on fork intensive use case like
hackbench where tasks blocked quickly after the fork, this can lead to
selecting the same CPU instead of other CPUs, which have similar
runnable load but a lower load_avg.
When the runnable_load_avg of 2 CPUs are close, we now take into
account the amount of blocked load as a 2nd selection factor. There is
now 3 zones for the runnable_load of the rq:
- [0 .. (runnable_load - imbalance)]:
Select the new rq which has significantly less runnable_load
- [(runnable_load - imbalance) .. (runnable_load + imbalance)]:
The runnable loads are close so we use load_avg to chose
between the 2 rq
- [(runnable_load + imbalance) .. ULONG_MAX]:
Keep the current rq which has significantly less runnable_load
The scale factor that is currently used for comparing runnable_load,
doesn't work well with small value. As an example, the use of a
scaling factor fails as soon as this_runnable_load == 0 because we
always select local rq even if min_runnable_load is only 1, which
doesn't really make sense because they are just the same. So instead
of scaling factor, we use an absolute margin for runnable_load to
detect CPUs with similar runnable_load and we keep using scaling
factor for blocked load.
For use case like hackbench, this enable the scheduler to select
different CPUs during the fork sequence and to spread tasks across the
system.
Tests have been done on a Hikey board (ARM based octo cores) for
several kernel. The result below gives min, max, avg and stdev values
of 18 runs with each configuration.
The patches depend on the "no missing update_rq_clock()" work.

During fork, the utilization of a task is init once the rq has been
selected because the current utilization level of the rq is used to
set the utilization of the fork task. As the task's utilization is
still 0 at this step of the fork sequence, it doesn't make sense to
look for some spare capacity that can fit the task's utilization.
Furthermore, I can see perf regressions for the test:
hackbench -P -g 1
because the least loaded policy is always bypassed and tasks are not
spread during fork.
With this patch and the fix below, we are back to same performances as
for v4.8. The fix below is only a temporary one used for the test
until a smarter solution is found because we can't simply remove the
test which is useful for others benchmarks

We generalize the scheduler's asym packing to provide an ordering
of the cpu beyond just the cpu number. This allows the use of the
ASYM_PACKING scheduler machinery to move loads to preferred CPU in a
sched domain. The preference is defined with the cpu priority
given by arch_asym_cpu_priority(cpu).
We also record the most preferred cpu in a sched group when
we build the cpu's capacity for fast lookup of preferred cpu
during load balancing.
