sched/deadline: Use online cpus for validating runtime

2025-04-10T12:29:42+00:00

[ Upstream commit 14672f059d83f591afb2ee1fff56858efe055e5a ]

The ftrace selftest reported a failure because writing -1 to
sched_rt_runtime_us returns -EBUSY. This happens when the possible
CPUs are different from active CPUs.

Active CPUs are part of one root domain, while remaining CPUs are part
of def_root_domain. Since active cpumask is being used, this results in
cpus=0 when a non active CPUs is used in the loop.

Fix it by looping over the online CPUs instead for validating the
bandwidth calculations.

sched/deadline: Fix priority inheritance with multiple scheduling classes

2022-09-05T08:27:39+00:00

commit 2279f540ea7d05f22d2f0c4224319330228586bc upstream.

Glenn reported that "an application [he developed produces] a BUG in
deadline.c when a SCHED_DEADLINE task contends with CFS tasks on nested
PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT mutexes.  I believe the bug is triggered when a CFS
task that was boosted by a SCHED_DEADLINE task boosts another CFS task
(nested priority inheritance).

He also provided a simple reproducer creating the situation below:

 So the execution order of locking steps are the following
 (N1 and N2 are non-deadline tasks. D1 is a deadline task. M1 and M2
 are mutexes that are enabled * with priority inheritance.)

 Time moves forward as this timeline goes down:

 N1              N2               D1
 |               |                |
 |               |                |
 Lock(M1)        |                |
 |               |                |
 |             Lock(M2)           |
 |               |                |
 |               |              Lock(M2)
 |               |                |
 |             Lock(M1)           |
 |             (!!bug triggered!) |

Daniel reported a similar situation as well, by just letting ksoftirqd
run with DEADLINE (and eventually block on a mutex).

Problem is that boosted entities (Priority Inheritance) use static
DEADLINE parameters of the top priority waiter. However, there might be
cases where top waiter could be a non-DEADLINE entity that is currently
boosted by a DEADLINE entity from a different lock chain (i.e., nested
priority chains involving entities of non-DEADLINE classes). In this
case, top waiter static DEADLINE parameters could be null (initialized
to 0 at fork()) and replenish_dl_entity() would hit a BUG().

Fix this by keeping track of the original donor and using its parameters
when a task is boosted.

sched/deadline: Fix stale throttling on de-/boosted tasks

2022-09-05T08:27:39+00:00

commit 46fcc4b00c3cca8adb9b7c9afdd499f64e427135 upstream.

When a boosted task gets throttled, what normally happens is that it's
immediately enqueued again with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH, which replenishes the
runtime and clears the dl_throttled flag. There is a special case however:
if the throttling happened on sched-out and the task has been deboosted in
the meantime, the replenish is skipped as the task will return to its
normal scheduling class. This leaves the task with the dl_throttled flag
set.

Now if the task gets boosted up to the deadline scheduling class again
while it is sleeping, it's still in the throttled state. The normal wakeup
however will enqueue the task with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH not set, so we don't
actually place it on the rq. Thus we end up with a task that is runnable,
but not actually on the rq and neither a immediate replenishment happens,
nor is the replenishment timer set up, so the task is stuck in
forever-throttled limbo.

Clear the dl_throttled flag before dropping back to the normal scheduling
class to fix this issue.

sched/deadline: Unthrottle PI boosted threads while enqueuing

2022-09-05T08:27:39+00:00

commit feff2e65efd8d84cf831668e182b2ce73c604bbb upstream.

stress-ng has a test (stress-ng --cyclic) that creates a set of threads
under SCHED_DEADLINE with the following parameters:

    dl_runtime   =  10000 (10 us)
    dl_deadline  = 100000 (100 us)
    dl_period    = 100000 (100 us)

These parameters are very aggressive. When using a system without HRTICK
set, these threads can easily execute longer than the dl_runtime because
the throttling happens with 1/HZ resolution.

During the main part of the test, the system works just fine because
the workload does not try to run over the 10 us. The problem happens at
the end of the test, on the exit() path. During exit(), the threads need
to do some cleanups that require real-time mutex locks, mainly those
related to memory management, resulting in this scenario:

Note: locks are rt_mutexes...
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    TASK A:		TASK B:				TASK C:
    activation
							activation
			activation

    lock(a): OK!	lock(b): OK!
    			
    			lock(a)
    			-> block (task A owns it)
			  -> self notice/set throttled
 +--<			  -> arm replenished timer
 |    			switch-out
 |    							lock(b)
 |    							->  B prio>
 |    							-> boost TASK B
 |  unlock(a)						switch-out
 |  -> handle lock a to B
 |    -> wakeup(B)
 |      -> B is throttled:
 |        -> do not enqueue
 |     switch-out
 |
 |
 +---------------------> replenishment timer
			-> TASK B is boosted:
			  -> do not enqueue
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

BOOM: TASK B is runnable but !enqueued, holding TASK C: the system
crashes with hung task C.

This problem is avoided by removing the throttle state from the boosted
thread while boosting it (by TASK A in the example above), allowing it to
be queued and run boosted.

The next replenishment will take care of the runtime overrun, pushing
the deadline further away. See the "while (dl_se->runtime <= 0)" on
replenish_dl_entity() for more information.

The task causing this is the `cppc_fie` DL task introduced by
commit 1eb5dde674f5 ("cpufreq: CPPC: Add support for frequency
invariance").

With CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE=y and schedutil cpufreq governor on
slow-switching system (like on this Ampere Altra WIWYNN Mt. Jade Arm
Server):

DL task `curr=sugov:112` lets `p=cppc_fie` migrate and since the latter
is in `non_contending` state, migrate_task_rq_dl() calls

  sub_running_bw()->__sub_running_bw()->cpufreq_update_util()->
  rq_clock()->assert_clock_updated()

on p.

Fix this by updating the clock for a non_contending task in
migrate_task_rq_dl() before calling sub_running_bw().

sched/deadline: Fix reset_on_fork reporting of DL tasks

2021-09-15T07:47:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit f95091536f78971b269ec321b057b8d630b0ad8a ]

It is possible for sched_getattr() to incorrectly report the state of
the reset_on_fork flag when called on a deadline task.

Indeed, if the flag was set on a deadline task using sched_setattr()
with flags (SCHED_FLAG_RESET_ON_FORK | SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS), then
p->sched_reset_on_fork will be set, but __setscheduler() will bail out
early, which means that the dl_se->flags will not get updated by
__setscheduler_params()->__setparam_dl(). Consequently, if
sched_getattr() is then called on the task, __getparam_dl() will
override kattr.sched_flags with the now out-of-date copy in dl_se->flags
and report the stale value to userspace.

To fix this, make sure to only copy the flags that are relevant to
sched_deadline to and from the dl_se->flags field.

sched/rt: Fix Deadline utilization tracking during policy change

2021-07-14T14:53:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit d7d607096ae6d378b4e92d49946d22739c047d4c ]

DL keeps track of the utilization on a per-rq basis with the structure
avg_dl. This utilization is updated during task_tick_dl(),
put_prev_task_dl() and set_next_task_dl(). However, when the current
running task changes its policy, set_next_task_dl() which would usually
take care of updating the utilization when the rq starts running DL
tasks, will not see a such change, leaving the avg_dl structure outdated.
When that very same task will be dequeued later, put_prev_task_dl() will
then update the utilization, based on a wrong last_update_time, leading to
a huge spike in the DL utilization signal.

The signal would eventually recover from this issue after few ms. Even
if no DL tasks are run, avg_dl is also updated in
__update_blocked_others(). But as the CPU capacity depends partly on the
avg_dl, this issue has nonetheless a significant impact on the scheduler.

Fix this issue by ensuring a load update when a running task changes
its policy to DL.

sched/deadline: Fix sched_dl_global_validate()

[ Upstream commit a57415f5d1e43c3a5c5d412cd85e2792d7ed9b11 ]

When change sched_rt_{runtime, period}_us, we validate that the new
settings should at least accommodate the currently allocated -dl
bandwidth:

  sched_rt_handler()
    -->	sched_dl_bandwidth_validate()
	{
		new_bw = global_rt_runtime()/global_rt_period();

		for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
			dl_b = dl_bw_of(cpu);
			if (new_bw < dl_b->total_bw)    <-------
				ret = -EBUSY;
		}
	}

But under CONFIG_SMP, dl_bw is per root domain , but not per CPU,
dl_b->total_bw is the allocated bandwidth of the whole root domain.
Instead, we should compare dl_b->total_bw against "cpus*new_bw",
where 'cpus' is the number of CPUs of the root domain.

Also, below annotation(in kernel/sched/sched.h) implied implementation
only appeared in SCHED_DEADLINE v2[1], then deadline scheduler kept
evolving till got merged(v9), but the annotation remains unchanged,
meaningless and misleading, update it.

* With respect to SMP, the bandwidth is given on a per-CPU basis,
* meaning that:
*  - dl_bw (< 100%) is the bandwidth of the system (group) on each CPU;
*  - dl_total_bw array contains, in the i-eth element, the currently
*    allocated bandwidth on the i-eth CPU.
