sched/smt: Expose sched_smt_present static key

2018-12-05T18:41:20+00:00

commit 321a874a7ef85655e93b3206d0f36b4a6097f948 upstream

Make the scheduler's 'sched_smt_present' static key globaly available, so
it can be used in the x86 speculation control code.

Provide a query function and a stub for the CONFIG_SMP=n case.

sched/smt: Make sched_smt_present track topology

2018-12-05T18:41:20+00:00

commit c5511d03ec090980732e929c318a7a6374b5550e upstream

Currently the 'sched_smt_present' static key is enabled when at CPU bringup
SMT topology is observed, but it is never disabled. However there is demand
to also disable the key when the topology changes such that there is no SMT
present anymore.

Implement this by making the key count the number of cores that have SMT
enabled.

In particular, the SMT topology bits are set before interrrupts are enabled
and similarly, are cleared after interrupts are disabled for the last time
and the CPU dies.

sched/core: Take the hotplug lock in sched_init_smp()

[ Upstream commit 40fa3780bac2b654edf23f6b13f4e2dd550aea10 ]

When running on linux-next (8c60c36d0b8c ("Add linux-next specific files
for 20181019")) + CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y on a big.LITTLE system (e.g.
Juno or HiKey960), we get the following report:

 [    0.780190]  ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18

The static_key in question is 'sched_asym_cpucapacity' introduced by
commit:

  df054e8445a4 ("sched/topology: Add static_key for asymmetric CPU capacity optimizations")

In this particular case, we enable it because smp_prepare_cpus() will
end up fetching the capacity-dmips-mhz entry from the devicetree,
so we already have some asymmetry detected when entering sched_init_smp().

This didn't get detected in tip/sched/core because we were missing:

  commit cb538267ea1e ("jump_label/lockdep: Assert we hold the hotplug lock for _cpuslocked() operations")

Calls to build_sched_domains() post sched_init_smp() will hold the
hotplug lock, it just so happens that this very first call is a
special case. As stated by a comment in sched_init_smp(), "There's no
userspace yet to cause hotplug operations" so this is a harmless
warning.

However, to both respect the semantics of underlying
callees and make lockdep happy, take the hotplug lock in
sched_init_smp(). This also satisfies the comment atop
sched_init_domains() that says "Callers must hold the hotplug lock".

I think that we want to update min_vruntime when a task is sleeping/migrating.

sched/fair: Fix throttle_list starvation with low CFS quota

2018-11-10T15:48:36+00:00

commit baa9be4ffb55876923dc9716abc0a448e510ba30 upstream.

With a very low cpu.cfs_quota_us setting, such as the minimum of 1000,
distribute_cfs_runtime may not empty the throttled_list before it runs
out of runtime to distribute. In that case, due to the change from
c06f04c7048 to put throttled entries at the head of the list, later entries
on the list will starve.  Essentially, the same X processes will get pulled
off the list, given CPU time and then, when expired, get put back on the
head of the list where distribute_cfs_runtime will give runtime to the same
set of processes leaving the rest.

Fix the issue by setting a bit in struct cfs_bandwidth when
distribute_cfs_runtime is running, so that the code in throttle_cfs_rq can
decide to put the throttled entry on the tail or the head of the list.  The
bit is set/cleared by the callers of distribute_cfs_runtime while they hold
cfs_bandwidth->lock.

This is easy to reproduce with a handful of CPU consumers. I use 'crash' on
the live system. In some cases you can simply look at the throttled list and
see the later entries are not changing:

  crash> list cfs_rq.throttled_list -H 0xffff90b54f6ade40 -s cfs_rq.runtime_remaining | paste - - | awk '{print $1"  "$4}' | pr -t -n3
    1     ffff90b56cb2d200  -976050
    2     ffff90b56cb2cc00  -484925
    3     ffff90b56cb2bc00  -658814

   11     ffff90b166a40a00  -164582

Sometimes it is easier to see by finding a process getting starved and looking
at the sched_info:

  crash> task ffff8eb765994500 sched_info
  PID: 7800   TASK: ffff8eb765994500  CPU: 16  COMMAND: "cputest"

      pcount = 8,
      run_delay = 697094208,
      last_arrival = 240260125039,
      last_queued = 240260327513
    },

sched/fair: Fix vruntime_normalized() for remote non-migration wakeup

2018-09-29T10:06:07+00:00

commit d0cdb3ce8834332d918fc9c8ff74f8a169ec9abe upstream.

When a task which previously ran on a given CPU is remotely queued to
wake up on that same CPU, there is a period where the task's state is
TASK_WAKING and its vruntime is not normalized. This is not accounted
for in vruntime_normalized() which will cause an error in the task's
vruntime if it is switched from the fair class during this time.

For example if it is boosted to RT priority via rt_mutex_setprio(),
rq->min_vruntime will not be subtracted from the task's vruntime but
it will be added again when the task returns to the fair class. The
task's vruntime will have been erroneously doubled and the effective
priority of the task will be reduced.

Note this will also lead to inflation of all vruntimes since the doubled
vruntime value will become the rq's min_vruntime when other tasks leave
the rq. This leads to repeated doubling of the vruntime and priority
penalty.

Fix this by recognizing a WAKING task's vruntime as normalized only if
sched_remote_wakeup is true. This indicates a migration, in which case
the vruntime would have been normalized in migrate_task_rq_fair().

Based on a similar patch from John Dias .

sched/fair: Fix util_avg of new tasks for asymmetric systems

2018-09-26T06:38:12+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8fe5c5a937d0f4e84221631833a2718afde52285 ]

When a new task wakes-up for the first time, its initial utilization
is set to half of the spare capacity of its CPU. The current
implementation of post_init_entity_util_avg() uses SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
directly as a capacity reference. As a result, on a big.LITTLE system, a
new task waking up on an idle little CPU will be given ~512 of util_avg,
even if the CPU's capacity is significantly less than that.

Fix this by computing the spare capacity with arch_scale_cpu_capacity().

sched/core: Use smp_mb() in wake_woken_function()

2018-09-26T06:38:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit 76e079fefc8f62bd9b2cd2950814d1ee806e31a5 ]

wake_woken_function() synchronizes with wait_woken() as follows:

  [wait_woken]                       [wake_woken_function]

  entry->flags &= ~wq_flag_woken;    condition = true;
  smp_mb();                          smp_wmb();
  if (condition)                     wq_entry->flags |= wq_flag_woken;
     break;

This commit replaces the above smp_wmb() with an smp_mb() in order to
guarantee that either wait_woken() sees the wait condition being true
or the store to wq_entry->flags in woken_wake_function() follows the
store in wait_woken() in the coherence order (so that the former can
eventually be observed by wait_woken()).

The commit also fixes a comment associated to set_current_state() in
wait_woken(): the comment pairs the barrier in set_current_state() to
the above smp_wmb(), while the actual pairing involves the barrier in
set_current_state() and the barrier executed by the try_to_wake_up()
in wake_woken_function().

sched/deadline: Fix switching to -deadline

2018-09-15T07:45:35+00:00

commit 295d6d5e373607729bcc8182c25afe964655714f upstream.

Fix a bug introduced in:

  72f9f3fdc928 ("sched/deadline: Remove dl_new from struct sched_dl_entity")

After that commit, when switching to -deadline if the scheduling
deadline of a task is in the past then switched_to_dl() calls
setup_new_entity() to properly initialize the scheduling deadline
and runtime.

The problem is that the task is enqueued _before_ having its parameters
initialized by setup_new_entity(), and this can cause problems.
For example, a task with its out-of-date deadline in the past will
potentially be enqueued as the highest priority one; however, its
adjusted deadline may not be the earliest one.

This patch fixes the problem by initializing the task's parameters before
enqueuing it.
