commit 35a2897c2a306cca344ca5c0b43416707018f434 upstream.
Steven Rostedt reported a potential race in RCU core because of
swake_up():
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
__call_rcu_core() {
spin_lock(rnp_root)
need_wake = __rcu_start_gp() {
rcu_start_gp_advanced() {
gp_flags = FLAG_INIT
}
}
rcu_gp_kthread() {
swait_event_interruptible(wq,
gp_flags & FLAG_INIT) {
spin_lock(q->lock)
*fetch wq->task_list here! *
list_add(wq->task_list, q->task_list)
spin_unlock(q->lock);
*fetch old value of gp_flags here *
spin_unlock(rnp_root)
rcu_gp_kthread_wake() {
swake_up(wq) {
swait_active(wq) {
list_empty(wq->task_list)
} * return false *
if (condition) * false *
schedule();
In this case, a wakeup is missed, which could cause the rcu_gp_kthread
waits for a long time.
The reason of this is that we do a lockless swait_active() check in
swake_up(). To fix this, we can either 1) add a smp_mb() in swake_up()
before swait_active() to provide the proper order or 2) simply remove
the swait_active() in swake_up().
The solution 2 not only fixes this problem but also keeps the swait and
wait API as close as possible, as wake_up() doesn't provide a full
barrier and doesn't do a lockless check of the wait queue either.
Moreover, there are users already using swait_active() to do their quick
checks for the wait queues, so it make less sense that swake_up() and
swake_up_all() do this on their own.
This patch then removes the lockless swait_active() check in swake_up()
and swake_up_all().

[ Upstream commit d29a20645d5e929aa7e8616f28e5d8e1c49263ec ]
While running rt-tests' pi_stress program I got the following splat:
rq->clock_update_flags < RQCF_ACT_SKIP

We can get rid of it be the "traditional" means of adding an
update_rq_clock() call after acquiring the rq->lock in
do_sched_rt_period_timer().
The case for the RT task throttling (which this workload also hits)
can be ignored in that the skip_update call is actually bogus and
quite the contrary (the request bits are removed/reverted).
By setting RQCF_UPDATED we really don't care if the skip is happening
or not and will therefore make the assert_clock_updated() check happy.

[ Upstream commit 3effcb4247e74a51f5d8b775a1ee4abf87cc089a ]
We have been facing some problems with self-suspending constrained
deadline tasks. The main reason is that the original CBS was not
designed for such sort of tasks.
One problem reported by Xunlei Pang takes place when a task
suspends, and then is awakened before the deadline, but so close
to the deadline that its remaining runtime can cause the task
to have an absolute density higher than allowed. In such situation,
the original CBS assumes that the task is facing an early activation,
and so it replenishes the task and set another deadline, one deadline
in the future. This rule works fine for implicit deadline tasks.
Moreover, it allows the system to adapt the period of a task in which
the external event source suffered from a clock drift.
However, this opens the window for bandwidth leakage for constrained
deadline tasks. For instance, a task with the following parameters:
runtime = 5 ms
deadline = 7 ms
[density] = 5 / 7 = 0.71
period = 1000 ms
If the task runs for 1 ms, and then suspends for another 1ms,
it will be awakened with the following parameters:
remaining runtime = 4
laxity = 5
presenting a absolute density of 4 / 5 = 0.80.
In this case, the original CBS would assume the task had an early
wakeup. Then, CBS will reset the runtime, and the absolute deadline will
be postponed by one relative deadline, allowing the task to run.
The problem is that, if the task runs this pattern forever, it will keep
receiving bandwidth, being able to run 1ms every 2ms. Following this
behavior, the task would be able to run 500 ms in 1 sec. Thus running
more than the 5 ms / 1 sec the admission control allowed it to run.
Trying to address the self-suspending case, Luca Abeni, Giuseppe
Lipari, and Juri Lelli [1] revisited the CBS in order to deal with
self-suspending tasks. In the new approach, rather than
replenishing/postponing the absolute deadline, the revised wakeup rule
adjusts the remaining runtime, reducing it to fit into the allowed
density.
A revised version of the idea is:
At a given time t, the maximum absolute density of a task cannot be
higher than its relative density, that is:
runtime / (deadline - t) <= dl_runtime / dl_deadline
Knowing the laxity of a task (deadline - t), it is possible to move
it to the other side of the equality, thus enabling to define max
remaining runtime a task can use within the absolute deadline, without
over-running the allowed density:
runtime = (dl_runtime / dl_deadline) * (deadline - t)
For instance, in our previous example, the task could still run:
runtime = ( 5 / 7 ) * 5
runtime = 3.57 ms
Without causing damage for other deadline tasks. It is note worthy
that the laxity cannot be negative because that would cause a negative
runtime. Thus, this patch depends on the patch:
df8eac8cafce ("sched/deadline: Throttle a constrained deadline task activated after the deadline")
Which throttles a constrained deadline task activated after the
deadline.
Finally, it is also possible to use the revised wakeup rule for
all other tasks, but that would require some more discussions
about pros and cons.

[ Upstream commit 8655d5497735b288f8a9b458bd22e7d1bf95bb61 ]
A customer has reported a soft-lockup when running an intensive
memory stress test, where the trace on multiple CPU's looks like this:
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810c53fe>]
[<ffffffff810c53fe>] native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x10e/0x190
...
Call Trace:

[<ffffffff810adefe>] task_numa_work+0x1fe/0x310
[<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.

This splat cannot be generated by expedited grace periods because they
always invoke resched_cpu() on the current CPU, which is good because
expedited grace periods require that resched_cpu() unconditionally
succeed. However, other parts of RCU can tolerate resched_cpu() acting
as a no-op, at least as long as it doesn't happen too often.
This commit therefore makes resched_cpu() invoke resched_curr() only if
the CPU is either online or is the current CPU.

But the target task's priority has already been adjusted, so the only
purpose of switched_to_rt() invoking resched_curr() is to wake up the
CPU running some task that needs to be preempted by the boosted task.
But the CPU is offline, which presumably means that the task must be
migrated to some other CPU, and that this other CPU will undertake any
needed preemption at the time of migration. Because the runqueue lock
is held when resched_curr() is invoked, we know that the boosted task
cannot go anywhere, so it is not necessary to invoke resched_curr()
in this particular case.
This commit therefore makes switched_to_rt() refrain from invoking
resched_curr() when the target CPU is offline.

commit 364f56653708ba8bcdefd4f0da2a42904baa8eeb upstream.
When issuing an IPI RT push, where an IPI is sent to each CPU that has more
than one RT task scheduled on it, it references the root domain's rto_mask,
that contains all the CPUs within the root domain that has more than one RT
task in the runable state. The problem is, after the IPIs are initiated, the
rq->lock is released. This means that the root domain that is associated to
the run queue could be freed while the IPIs are going around.
Add a sched_get_rd() and a sched_put_rd() that will increment and decrement
the root domain's ref count respectively. This way when initiating the IPIs,
the scheduler will up the root domain's ref count before releasing the
rq->lock, ensuring that the root domain does not go away until the IPI round
is complete.

commit ad0f1d9d65938aec72a698116cd73a980916895e upstream.
When the rto_push_irq_work_func() is called, it looks at the RT overloaded
bitmask in the root domain via the runqueue (rq->rd). The problem is that
during CPU up and down, nothing here stops rq->rd from changing between
taking the rq->rd->rto_lock and releasing it. That means the lock that is
released is not the same lock that was taken.
Instead of using this_rq()->rd to get the root domain, as the irq work is
part of the root domain, we can simply get the root domain from the irq work
that is passed to the routine:
container_of(work, struct root_domain, rto_push_work)
This keeps the root domain consistent.

commit ae83b56a56f8d9643dedbee86b457fa1c5d42f59 upstream.
When a contrained task is throttled by dl_check_constrained_dl(),
it may carry the remaining positive runtime, as a result when
dl_task_timer() fires and calls replenish_dl_entity(), it will
not be replenished correctly due to the positive dl_se->runtime.
This patch assigns its runtime to 0 if positive after throttling.

[ Upstream commit 2317d5f1c34913bac5971d93d69fb6c31bb74670 ]
I was testing Daniel's changes with his test case, and tweaked it a
little. Instead of having the runtime equal to the deadline, I
increased the deadline ten fold.
Daniel's test case had:
attr.sched_runtime = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */
attr.sched_deadline = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */
attr.sched_period = 2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 s */
To make it more interesting, I changed it to:
attr.sched_runtime = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */
attr.sched_deadline = 20 * 1000 * 1000; /* 20 ms */
attr.sched_period = 2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 s */
The results were rather surprising. The behavior that Daniel's patch
was fixing came back. The task started using much more than .1% of the
CPU. More like 20%.
Looking into this I found that it was due to the dl_entity_overflow()
constantly returning true. That's because it uses the relative period
against relative runtime vs the absolute deadline against absolute
runtime.
runtime / (deadline - t) > dl_runtime / dl_period
There's even a comment mentioning this, and saying that when relative
deadline equals relative period, that the equation is the same as using
deadline instead of period. That comment is backwards! What we really
want is:
runtime / (deadline - t) > dl_runtime / dl_deadline
We care about if the runtime can make its deadline, not its period. And
then we can say "when the deadline equals the period, the equation is
the same as using dl_period instead of dl_deadline".
After correcting this, now when the task gets enqueued, it can throttle
correctly, and Daniel's fix to the throttling of sleeping deadline
tasks works even when the runtime and deadline are not the same.

deadline
[ Upstream commit df8eac8cafce7d086be3bd5cf5a838fa37594dfb ]
During the activation, CBS checks if it can reuse the current task's
runtime and period. If the deadline of the task is in the past, CBS
cannot use the runtime, and so it replenishes the task. This rule
works fine for implicit deadline tasks (deadline == period), and the
CBS was designed for implicit deadline tasks. However, a task with
constrained deadline (deadine < period) might be awakened after the
deadline, but before the next period. In this case, replenishing the
task would allow it to run for runtime / deadline. As in this case
deadline < period, CBS enables a task to run for more than the
runtime / period. In a very loaded system, this can cause a domino
effect, making other tasks miss their deadlines.
To avoid this problem, in the activation of a constrained deadline
task after the deadline but before the next period, throttle the
task and set the replenishing timer to the begin of the next period,
unless it is boosted.
Reproducer:
--------------- %< ---------------
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
int ret;
int flags = 0;
unsigned long l = 0;
struct timespec ts;
struct sched_attr attr;
memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr));

[ Upstream commit 5ac69d37784b237707a7b15d199cdb6c6fdb6780 ]
Currently, the replenishment timer is set to fire at the deadline
of a task. Although that works for implicit deadline tasks because the
deadline is equals to the begin of the next period, that is not correct
for constrained deadline tasks (deadline < period).
For instance:
f.c:
--------------- %< ---------------
int main (void)
{
for(;;);
}
--------------- >% ---------------
# gcc -o f f.c
# trace-cmd record -e sched:sched_switch \
-e syscalls:sys_exit_sched_setattr \
chrt -d --sched-runtime 490000000 \
--sched-deadline 500000000 \
--sched-period 1000000000 0 ./f
# trace-cmd report | grep "{pid of ./f}"
After setting parameters, the task is replenished and continue running
until being throttled:
f-11295 [003] 13322.113776: sys_exit_sched_setattr: 0x0
The task is throttled after running 492318 ms, as expected:
f-11295 [003] 13322.606094: sched_switch: f:11295 [-1] R ==> watchdog/3:32 [0]
But then, the task is replenished 500719 ms after the first
replenishment:
<idle>-0 [003] 13322.614495: sched_switch: swapper/3:0 [120] R ==> f:11295 [-1]
Running for 490277 ms:
f-11295 [003] 13323.104772: sched_switch: f:11295 [-1] R ==> swapper/3:0 [120]
Hence, in the first period, the task runs 2 * runtime, and that is a bug.
During the first replenishment, the next deadline is set one period away.
So the runtime / period starts to be respected. However, as the second
replenishment took place in the wrong instant, the next replenishment
will also be held in a wrong instant of time. Rather than occurring in
the nth period away from the first activation, it is taking place
in the (nth period - relative deadline).

The DL task will be migrated to a suitable later deadline rq once the DL

be updated. This patch fixes it by updating the rq clock after holding
the new rq's rq lock.

commit f73c52a5bcd1710994e53fbccc378c42b97a06b6 upstream.
Daniel Wagner reported a crash on the BeagleBone Black SoC.
This is a single CPU architecture, and does not have a functional
arch_send_call_function_single_ipi() implementation which can crash
the kernel if that is called.
As it only has one CPU, it shouldn't be called, but if the kernel is
compiled for SMP, the push/pull RT scheduling logic now calls it for
irq_work if the one CPU is overloaded, it can use that function to call
itself and crash the kernel.
Ideally, we should disable the SCHED_FEAT(RT_PUSH_IPI) if the system
only has a single CPU. But SCHED_FEAT is a constant if sched debugging
is turned off. Another fix can also be used, and this should also help
with normal SMP machines. That is, do not initiate the pull code if
there's only one RT overloaded CPU, and that CPU happens to be the
current CPU that is scheduling in a lower priority task.
Even on a system with many CPUs, if there's many RT tasks waiting to
run on a single CPU, and that CPU schedules in another RT task of lower
priority, it will initiate the PULL logic in case there's a higher
priority RT task on another CPU that is waiting to run. But if there is
no other CPU with waiting RT tasks, it will initiate the RT pull logic
on itself (as it still has RT tasks waiting to run). This is a wasted
effort.
Not only does this help with SMP code where the current CPU is the only
one with RT overloaded tasks, it should also solve the issue that
Daniel encountered, because it will prevent the PULL logic from
executing, as there's only one CPU on the system, and the check added
here will cause it to exit the RT pull code.

[ Upstream commit 4c77b18cf8b7ab37c7d5737b4609010d2ceec5f0 ]
Kitsunyan reported desktop latency issues on his Celeron 887 because
of commit:
1b568f0aabf2 ("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.

commit 4bdced5c9a2922521e325896a7bbbf0132c94e56 upstream.
When a CPU lowers its priority (schedules out a high priority task for a
lower priority one), a check is made to see if any other CPU has overloaded
RT tasks (more than one). It checks the rto_mask to determine this and if so
it will request to pull one of those tasks to itself if the non running RT
task is of higher priority than the new priority of the next task to run on
the current CPU.
When we deal with large number of CPUs, the original pull logic suffered
from large lock contention on a single CPU run queue, which caused a huge
latency across all CPUs. This was caused by only having one CPU having
overloaded RT tasks and a bunch of other CPUs lowering their priority. To
solve this issue, commit:
b6366f048e0c ("sched/rt: Use IPI to trigger RT task push migration instead of pulling")
changed the way to request a pull. Instead of grabbing the lock of the
overloaded CPU's runqueue, it simply sent an IPI to that CPU to do the work.
Although the IPI logic worked very well in removing the large latency build
up, it still could suffer from a large number of IPIs being sent to a single
CPU. On a 80 CPU box, I measured over 200us of processing IPIs. Worse yet,
when I tested this on a 120 CPU box, with a stress test that had lots of
RT tasks scheduling on all CPUs, it actually triggered the hard lockup
detector! One CPU had so many IPIs sent to it, and due to the restart
mechanism that is triggered when the source run queue has a priority status
change, the CPU spent minutes! processing the IPIs.
Thinking about this further, I realized there's no reason for each run queue
to send its own IPI. As all CPUs with overloaded tasks must be scanned
regardless if there's one or many CPUs lowering their priority, because
there's no current way to find the CPU with the highest priority task that
can schedule to one of these CPUs, there really only needs to be one IPI
being sent around at a time.
This greatly simplifies the code!
The new approach is to have each root domain have its own irq work, as the
rto_mask is per root domain. The root domain has the following fields
attached to it:
rto_push_work - the irq work to process each CPU set in rto_mask
rto_lock - the lock to protect some of the other rto fields
rto_loop_start - an atomic that keeps contention down on rto_lock
the first CPU scheduling in a lower priority task
is the one to kick off the process.
rto_loop_next - an atomic that gets incremented for each CPU that
schedules in a lower priority task.
rto_loop - a variable protected by rto_lock that is used to
compare against rto_loop_next
rto_cpu - The cpu to send the next IPI to, also protected by
the rto_lock.
When a CPU schedules in a lower priority task and wants to make sure
overloaded CPUs know about it. It increments the rto_loop_next. Then it
atomically sets rto_loop_start with a cmpxchg. If the old value is not "0",
then it is done, as another CPU is kicking off the IPI loop. If the old
value is "0", then it will take the rto_lock to synchronize with a possible
IPI being sent around to the overloaded CPUs.
If rto_cpu is greater than or equal to nr_cpu_ids, then there's either no
IPI being sent around, or one is about to finish. Then rto_cpu is set to the
first CPU in rto_mask and an IPI is sent to that CPU. If there's no CPUs set
in rto_mask, then there's nothing to be done.
When the CPU receives the IPI, it will first try to push any RT tasks that is
queued on the CPU but can't run because a higher priority RT task is
currently running on that CPU.
Then it takes the rto_lock and looks for the next CPU in the rto_mask. If it
finds one, it simply sends an IPI to that CPU and the process continues.
If there's no more CPUs in the rto_mask, then rto_loop is compared with
rto_loop_next. If they match, everything is done and the process is over. If
they do not match, then a CPU scheduled in a lower priority task as the IPI
was being passed around, and the process needs to start again. The first CPU
in rto_mask is sent the IPI.
This change removes this duplication of work in the IPI logic, and greatly
lowers the latency caused by the IPIs. This removed the lockup happening on
the 120 CPU machine. It also simplifies the code tremendously. What else
could anyone ask for?
Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for simplifying the rto_loop_start atomic logic and
supplying me with the rto_start_trylock() and rto_start_unlock() helper
functions.

commit 7c2102e56a3f7d85b5d8f33efbd7aecc1f36fdd8 upstream.
The current implementation of synchronize_sched_expedited() incorrectly
assumes that resched_cpu() is unconditional, which it is not. This means
that synchronize_sched_expedited() can hang when resched_cpu()'s trylock
fails as follows (analysis by Neeraj Upadhyay):
o CPU1 is waiting for expedited wait to complete:
sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus
rdp->exp_dynticks_snap & 0x1 // returns 1 for CPU5
IPI sent to CPU5
synchronize_sched_expedited_wait
ret = swait_event_timeout(rsp->expedited_wq,
sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done(rnp_root),
jiffies_stall);
expmask = 0x20, CPU 5 in idle path (in cpuidle_enter())
o CPU5 handles IPI and fails to acquire rq lock.
Handles IPI
sync_sched_exp_handler
resched_cpu
returns while failing to try lock acquire rq->lock
need_resched is not set
o CPU5 calls rcu_idle_enter() and as need_resched is not set, goes to
idle (schedule() is not called).
o CPU 1 reports RCU stall.
Given that resched_cpu() is now used only by RCU, this commit fixes the
assumption by making resched_cpu() unconditional.

just as what other dequeue + put_prev + enqueue + set_curr story does.

commit 50e76632339d4655859523a39249dd95ee5e93e7 upstream.
Cpusets vs. suspend-resume is _completely_ broken. And it got noticed
because it now resulted in non-cpuset usage breaking too.
On suspend cpuset_cpu_inactive() doesn't call into
cpuset_update_active_cpus() because it doesn't want to move tasks about,
there is no need, all tasks are frozen and won't run again until after
we've resumed everything.
But this means that when we finally do call into
cpuset_update_active_cpus() after resuming the last frozen cpu in
cpuset_cpu_active(), the top_cpuset will not have any difference with
the cpu_active_mask and this it will not in fact do _anything_.
So the cpuset configuration will not be restored. This was largely
hidden because we would unconditionally create identity domains and
mobile users would not in fact use cpusets much. And servers what do use
cpusets tend to not suspend-resume much.
An addition problem is that we'd not in fact wait for the cpuset work to
finish before resuming the tasks, allowing spurious migrations outside
of the specified domains.
Fix the rebuild by introducing cpuset_force_rebuild() and fix the
ordering with cpuset_wait_for_hotplug().

commit 96b777452d8881480fd5be50112f791c17db4b6b upstream.
Commit:
2f5177f0fd7e ("sched/cgroup: Fix/cleanup cgroup teardown/init")
.. moved sched_online_group() from css_online() to css_alloc().
It exposes half-baked task group into global lists before initializing
generic cgroup stuff.
LTP testcase (third in cgroup_regression_test) written for testing
similar race in kernels 2.6.26-2.6.28 easily triggers this oops:

commit 73bb059f9b8a00c5e1bf2f7ca83138c05d05e600 upstream.
The point of sched_group_mask is to select those CPUs from
sched_group_cpus that can actually arrive at this balance domain.
The current code gets it wrong, as can be readily demonstrated with a
topology like:
node 0 1 2 3
0: 10 20 30 20
1: 20 10 20 30
2: 30 20 10 20
3: 20 30 20 10
Where (for example) domain 1 on CPU1 ends up with a mask that includes
CPU0:
[] CPU1 attaching sched-domain:
[] domain 0: span 0-2 level NUMA
[] groups: 1 (mask: 1), 2, 0
[] domain 1: span 0-3 level NUMA
[] groups: 0-2 (mask: 0-2) (cpu_capacity: 3072), 0,2-3 (cpu_capacity: 3072)
This causes sched_balance_cpu() to compute the wrong CPU and
consequently should_we_balance() will terminate early resulting in
missed load-balance opportunities.
The fixed topology looks like:
[] CPU1 attaching sched-domain:
[] domain 0: span 0-2 level NUMA
[] groups: 1 (mask: 1), 2, 0
[] domain 1: span 0-3 level NUMA
[] groups: 0-2 (mask: 1) (cpu_capacity: 3072), 0,2-3 (cpu_capacity: 3072)
(note: this relies on OVERLAP domains to always have children, this is
true because the regular topology domains are still here -- this is
before degenerate trimming)

The group mask is always used in intersection with the group CPUs. So,
when building the group mask, we don't have to care about CPUs that are
not part of the group.

commit 0372dd2736e02672ac6e189c31f7d8c02ad543cd upstream.
When building the overlapping groups, we very obviously should start
with the previous domain of _this_ @cpu, not CPU-0.
This can be readily demonstrated with a topology like:
node 0 1 2 3
0: 10 20 30 20
1: 20 10 20 30
2: 30 20 10 20
3: 20 30 20 10
Where (for example) CPU1 ends up generating the following nonsensical groups:
[] CPU1 attaching sched-domain:
[] domain 0: span 0-2 level NUMA
[] groups: 1 2 0
[] domain 1: span 0-3 level NUMA
[] groups: 1-3 (cpu_capacity = 3072) 0-1,3 (cpu_capacity = 3072)
Where the fact that domain 1 doesn't include a group with span 0-2 is
the obvious fail.
With patch this looks like:
[] CPU1 attaching sched-domain:
[] domain 0: span 0-2 level NUMA
[] groups: 1 0 2
[] domain 1: span 0-3 level NUMA
[] groups: 0-2 (cpu_capacity = 3072) 0,2-3 (cpu_capacity = 3072)

This reverts commit 1b568f0aabf280555125bc7cefc08321ff0ebaba.
For the 4.9 kernel tree, this patch causes scheduler regressions. It is
fixed in newer kernels with a large number of individual patches, the
sum of which is too big for the stable kernel tree.
Ingo recommended just reverting the single patch for this tree, as it's
much simpler.

commit 6e5f32f7a43f45ee55c401c0b9585eb01f9629a8 upstream.
If we crossed a sample window while in NO_HZ we will add LOAD_FREQ to
the pending sample window time on exit, setting the next update not
one window into the future, but two.
This situation on exiting NO_HZ is described by:
this_rq->calc_load_update < jiffies < calc_load_update
In this scenario, what we should be doing is:
this_rq->calc_load_update = calc_load_update [ next window ]
But what we actually do is:
this_rq->calc_load_update = calc_load_update + LOAD_FREQ [ next+1 window ]
This has the effect of delaying load average updates for potentially
up to ~9seconds.
This can result in huge spikes in the load average values due to
per-cpu uninterruptible task counts being out of sync when accumulated
across all CPUs.
It's safe to update the per-cpu active count if we wake between sample
windows because any load that we left in 'calc_load_idle' will have
been zero'd when the idle load was folded in calc_global_load().
This issue is easy to reproduce before,
commit 9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")
just by forking short-lived process pipelines built from ps(1) and
grep(1) in a loop. I'm unable to reproduce the spikes after that
commit, but the bug still seems to be present from code review.

commit 252d2a4117bc181b287eeddf848863788da733ae upstream.
idle_task_exit() can be called with IRQs on x86 on and therefore
should use switch_mm(), not switch_mm_irqs_off().
This doesn't seem to cause any problems right now, but it will
confuse my upcoming TLB flush changes. Nonetheless, I think it
should be backported because it's trivial. There won't be any
meaningful performance impact because idle_task_exit() is only
used when offlining a CPU.

sugov_start() only initializes struct sugov_cpu per-CPU structures

cached_raw_freq applies to the entire cpufreq policy and not individual
CPUs. Apart from wasting per-cpu memory, it is actually wrong to keep it
in struct sugov_cpu as we may end up comparing next_freq with a stale

commit 619bd4a71874a8fd78eb6ccf9f272c5e98bcc7b7 upstream.
Since the change in commit:
fd7a4bed1835 ("sched, rt: Convert switched_{from, to}_rt() / prio_changed_rt() to balance callbacks")
... we don't reschedule a task under certain circumstances:
Lets say task-A, SCHED_OTHER, is running on CPU0 (and it may run only on
CPU0) and holds a PI lock. This task is removed from the CPU because it
used up its time slice and another SCHED_OTHER task is running. Task-B on
CPU1 runs at RT priority and asks for the lock owned by task-A. This
results in a priority boost for task-A. Task-B goes to sleep until the
lock has been made available. Task-A is already runnable (but not active),
so it receives no wake up.
The reality now is that task-A gets on the CPU once the scheduler decides
to remove the current task despite the fact that a high priority task is
enqueued and waiting. This may take a long time.
The desired behaviour is that CPU0 immediately reschedules after the
priority boost which made task-A the task with the lowest priority.

Because autogroup didn't call the then meaningless scale_load()...
Autogroup nice level adjustment has been broken ever since load
resolution was increased for 64-bit kernels. Use scale_load() to
scale group weight.

Exactly because for_each_thread() in autogroup_move_group() can't see it
and update its ->sched_task_group before _put() and possibly free().
So the exiting task needs another sched_move_task() before exit_notify()
and we need to re-introduce the PF_EXITING (or similar) check removed by
the previous change for another reason.

The PF_EXITING check in task_wants_autogroup() is no longer needed. Remove
it, but see the next patch.
However the comment is correct in that autogroup_move_group() must always
change task_group() for every thread so the sysctl_ check is very wrong;
we can race with cgroups and even sys_setsid() is not safe because a task
running with task_group() == ag->tg must participate in refcounting:
int main(void)
{
int sctl = open("/proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled", O_WRONLY);
assert(sctl > 0);
if (fork()) {
wait(NULL); // destroy the child's ag/tg
pause();
}
assert(pwrite(sctl, "1\n", 2, 0) == 2);
assert(setsid() > 0);
if (fork())
pause();
kill(getppid(), SIGKILL);
sleep(1);
// The child has gone, the grandchild runs with kref == 1
assert(pwrite(sctl, "0\n", 2, 0) == 2);
assert(setsid() > 0);
// runs with the freed ag/tg
for (;;)
sleep(1);
return 0;
}
crashes the kernel. It doesn't really need sleep(1), it doesn't matter if
autogroup_move_group() actually frees the task_group or this happens later.

When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, it is possible that an exited thread
remains in the task list after its stack pointer was already set to NULL.
Therefore, thread_saved_pc() and stack_not_used() in sched_show_task()
will trigger NULL pointer dereference if an attempt to dump such thread's
traces (e.g. SysRq-t, khungtaskd) is made.
Since show_stack() in sched_show_task() calls try_get_task_stack() and
sched_show_task() is called from interrupt context, calling
try_get_task_stack() from sched_show_task() will be safe as well.

The per-zone waitqueues exist because of a scalability issue with the
page waitqueues on some NUMA machines, but it turns out that they hurt
normal loads, and now with the vmalloced stacks they also end up
breaking gfs2 that uses a bit_wait on a stack object:
wait_on_bit(&gh->gh_iflags, HIF_WAIT, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
where 'gh' can be a reference to the local variable 'mount_gh' on the
stack of fill_super().
The reason the per-zone hash table breaks for this case is that there is
no "zone" for virtual allocations, and trying to look up the physical
page to get at it will fail (with a BUG_ON()).
It turns out that I actually complained to the mm people about the
per-zone hash table for another reason just a month ago: the zone lookup
also hurts the regular use of "unlock_page()" a lot, because the zone
lookup ends up forcing several unnecessary cache misses and generates
horrible code.
As part of that earlier discussion, we had a much better solution for
the NUMA scalability issue - by just making the page lock have a
separate contention bit, the waitqueue doesn't even have to be looked at
for the normal case.
Peter Zijlstra already has a patch for that, but let's see if anybody
even notices. In the meantime, let's fix the actual gfs2 breakage by
simplifying the bitlock waitqueues and removing the per-zone issue.

A scheduler performance regression has been reported by Joseph Salisbury,
which he bisected back to:
3d30544f0212 ("sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixes)
The regression triggers when several levels of task groups are involved
(read: SystemD) and cpu_possible_mask != cpu_present_mask.
The root cause is that group entity's load (tg_child->se[i]->avg.load_avg)
is initialized to scale_load_down(se->load.weight). During the creation of
a child task group, its group entities on possible CPUs are attached to
parent's cfs_rq (tg_parent) and their loads are added to the parent's load
(tg_parent->load_avg) with update_tg_load_avg().
But only the load on online CPUs will then be updated to reflect real load,
whereas load on other CPUs will stay at the initial value.
The result is a tg_parent->load_avg that is higher than the real load, the
weight of group entities (tg_parent->se[i]->load.weight) on online CPUs is
smaller than it should be, and the task group gets a less running time than
what it could expect.
( This situation can be detected with /proc/sched_debug. The ".tg_load_avg"
of the task group will be much higher than sum of ".tg_load_avg_contrib"
of online cfs_rqs of the task group. )
The load of group entities don't have to be intialized to something else
than 0 because their load will increase when an entity is attached.

This can be reproduced by running the ftrace test case of kselftest, the
test case will hot-unplug the CPU and the CPU will attach to the NULL
sched-domain during scheduler teardown.
The step 2 for the rewrite select_idle_siblings():
| Step 2) tracks the average cost of the scan and compares this to the
| average idle time guestimate for the CPU doing the wakeup.
If the CPU which doing the wakeup is the going hot-unplug CPU, then NULL
sched domain will be dereferenced to acquire the average cost of the scan.
This patch fix it by failing the search of an idle CPU in the LLC process
if this sched domain is NULL.

The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and
variables. If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for
gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.
These specific functions have been selected because they are init
functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable
times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of
latent entropy.

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the
output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".
We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted
PC to see if it lies within that section.
This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in
the minimal framework for other architectures.
