commit 119d6f6a3be8b424b200dcee56e74484d5445f7e upstream.

Because wakeups can (fundamentally) be late, a task might not be in
the expected state. Therefore testing against a task's state is racy,
and can yield false positives.

<title>sched/core: Clear the root_domain cpumasks in init_rootdomain()</title>

commit 8295c69925ad53ec32ca54ac9fc194ff21bc40e2 upstream.

root_domain::rto_mask allocated through alloc_cpumask_var()
contains garbage data, this may cause problems. For instance,
When doing pull_rt_task(), it may do useless iterations if
rto_mask retains some extra garbage bits. Worse still, this
violates the isolated domain rule for clustered scheduling
using cpuset, because the tasks(with all the cpus allowed)
belongs to one root domain can be pulled away into another
root domain.

The patch cleans the garbage by using zalloc_cpumask_var()
instead of alloc_cpumask_var() for root_domain::rto_mask
allocation, thereby addressing the issues.

Do the same thing for root_domain's other cpumask memembers:
dlo_mask, span, and online.

commit 9916e214998a4a363b152b637245e5c958067350 upstream.

Remove the direct {push,pull} balancing operations from
switched_{from,to}_dl() / prio_changed_dl() and use the balance
callback queue.

Again, err on the side of too many reschedules; since too few is a
hard bug while too many is just annoying.

commit 0ea60c2054fc3b0c3eb68ac4f6884f3ee78d9925 upstream.

In order to be able to use pull_dl_task() from a callback, we need to
do away with the return value.

Since the return value indicates if we should reschedule, do this
inside the function. Since not all callers currently do this, this can
increase the number of reschedules due rt balancing.

Too many reschedules is not a correctness issues, too few are.

commit 4c9a4bc89a9cca8128bce67d6bc8870d6b7ee0b2 upstream.

In order to remove dropping rq-&gt;lock from the
switched_{to,from}()/prio_changed() sched_class methods, run the
balance callbacks after it.

We need to remove dropping rq-&gt;lock because its buggy,
suppose using sched_setattr()/sched_setscheduler() to change a running
task from FIFO to OTHER.

By the time we get to switched_from_rt() the task is already enqueued
on the cfs runqueues. If switched_from_rt() does pull_rt_task() and
drops rq-&gt;lock, load-balancing can come in and move our task @p to
another rq.

The subsequent switched_to_fair() still assumes @p is on @rq and bad
things will happen.

By using balance callbacks we delay the load-balancing operations
{rt,dl}x{push,pull} until we've done all the important work and the
task is fully set up.

Furthermore, the balance callbacks do not know about @p, therefore
they cannot get confused like this.

commit e3fca9e7cbfb72694a21c886fcdf9f059cfded9c upstream.

Generalize the post_schedule() stuff into a balance callback list.
This allows us to more easily use it outside of schedule() and cross
sched_class.

commit 6c3b4d44ba2838f00614a5a2d777d4401e0bfd71 upstream.

The idle post_schedule flag is just a vile waste of time, furthermore
it appears unneeded, move the idle_enter_fair() call into
pick_next_task_idle().

commit fe32d3cd5e8eb0f82e459763374aa80797023403 upstream.

These functions check should_resched() before unlocking spinlock/bh-enable:
preempt_count always non-zero =&gt; should_resched() always returns false.
cond_resched_lock() worked iff spin_needbreak is set.

This patch adds argument "preempt_offset" to should_resched().

preempt_count offset constants for that:

  PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET  - offset after preempt_disable()
  PREEMPT_LOCK_OFFSET     - offset after spin_lock()
  SOFTIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET  - offset after local_bh_distable()
  SOFTIRQ_LOCK_OFFSET     - offset after spin_lock_bh()
