2014-01-20T18:42:08+00:00

Pull scheduler changes from Ingo Molnar:

 - Add the initial implementation of SCHED_DEADLINE support: a real-time
   scheduling policy where tasks that meet their deadlines and
   periodically execute their instances in less than their runtime quota
   see real-time scheduling and won't miss any of their deadlines.
   Tasks that go over their quota get delayed (Available to privileged
   users for now)

 - Clean up and fix preempt_enable_no_resched() abuse all around the
   tree

 - Do sched_clock() performance optimizations on x86 and elsewhere

 - Fix and improve auto-NUMA balancing

 - Fix and clean up the idle loop

 - Apply various cleanups and fixes

nohz_full: fix code style issue of tick_nohz_full_stop_tick

nohz: Get timekeeping max deferment outside jiffies_lock

2014-01-15T22:07:11+00:00

We don't need to fetch the timekeeping max deferment under the
jiffies_lock seqlock.

If the clocksource is updated concurrently while we stop the tick,
stop machine is called and the tick will be reevaluated again along with
uptodate jiffies and its related values.

tick: Rename tick_check_idle() to tick_irq_enter()

2014-01-15T22:05:31+00:00

This makes the code more symetric against the existing tick functions
called on irq exit: tick_irq_exit() and tick_nohz_irq_exit().

These function are also symetric as they mirror each other's action:
we start to account idle time on irq exit and we stop this accounting
on irq entry. Also the tick is stopped on irq exit and timekeeping
catches up with the tickless time elapsed until we reach irq entry.

This rename was suggested by Peter Zijlstra a long while ago but it
got forgotten in the mass.

sched/clock, x86: Use a static_key for sched_clock_stable

2014-01-13T14:13:13+00:00

In order to avoid the runtime condition and variable load turn
sched_clock_stable into a static_key.

Also provide a shorter implementation of local_clock() and
cpu_clock(int) when sched_clock_stable==1.

sched_clock: Disable seqlock lockdep usage in sched_clock()

2014-01-12T09:14:00+00:00

Unfortunately the seqlock lockdep enablement can't be used
in sched_clock(), since the lockdep infrastructure eventually
calls into sched_clock(), which causes a deadlock.

Thus, this patch changes all generic sched_clock() usage
to use the raw_* methods.
