cpufreq: schedutil: Don't skip freq update when limits change

2019-08-25T08:47:46+00:00

commit 600f5badb78c316146d062cfd7af4a2cfb655baa upstream.

To avoid reducing the frequency of a CPU prematurely, we skip reducing
the frequency if the CPU had been busy recently.

This should not be done when the limits of the policy are changed, for
example due to thermal throttling. We should always get the frequency
within the new limits as soon as possible.

Trying to fix this by using only one flag, i.e. need_freq_update, can
lead to a race condition where the flag gets cleared without forcing us
to change the frequency at least once. And so this patch introduces
another flag to avoid that race condition.

sched/fair: Use RCU accessors consistently for ->numa_group

2019-08-04T07:30:56+00:00

commit cb361d8cdef69990f6b4504dc1fd9a594d983c97 upstream.

The old code used RCU annotations and accessors inconsistently for
->numa_group, which can lead to use-after-frees and NULL dereferences.

Let all accesses to ->numa_group use proper RCU helpers to prevent such
issues.

sched/fair: Don't free p->numa_faults with concurrent readers

2019-08-04T07:30:56+00:00

commit 16d51a590a8ce3befb1308e0e7ab77f3b661af33 upstream.

When going through execve(), zero out the NUMA fault statistics instead of
freeing them.

During execve, the task is reachable through procfs and the scheduler. A
concurrent /proc/*/sched reader can read data from a freed ->numa_faults
allocation (confirmed by KASAN) and write it back to userspace.
I believe that it would also be possible for a use-after-free read to occur
through a race between a NUMA fault and execve(): task_numa_fault() can
lead to task_numa_compare(), which invokes task_weight() on the currently
running task of a different CPU.

Another way to fix this would be to make ->numa_faults RCU-managed or add
extra locking, but it seems easier to wipe the NUMA fault statistics on
execve.

sched/fair: Fix "runnable_avg_yN_inv" not used warnings

2019-07-26T07:14:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit 509466b7d480bc5d22e90b9fbe6122ae0e2fbe39 ]

runnable_avg_yN_inv[] is only used in kernel/sched/pelt.c but was
included in several other places because they need other macros all
came from kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h which was generated by
Documentation/scheduler/sched-pelt. As the result, it causes compilation
a lot of warnings,

  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  ...

Silence it by appending the __maybe_unused attribute for it, so all
generated variables and macros can still be kept in the same file.

sched/core: Add __sched tag for io_schedule()

2019-07-26T07:14:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit e3b929b0a184edb35531153c5afcaebb09014f9d ]

Non-inline io_schedule() was introduced in:

  commit 10ab56434f2f ("sched/core: Separate out io_schedule_prepare() and io_schedule_finish()")

Keep in line with io_schedule_timeout(), otherwise "/proc//wchan" will
report io_schedule() rather than its callers when waiting for IO.

jump_label: move 'asm goto' support test to Kconfig

2019-06-04T06:02:34+00:00

commit e9666d10a5677a494260d60d1fa0b73cc7646eb3 upstream.

Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label".

The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined
like this:

  #if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL)
  # define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
  #endif

We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.

Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will
match to the real kernel capability.

sched/nohz: Run NOHZ idle load balancer on HK_FLAG_MISC CPUs

2019-05-31T13:46:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9b019acb72e4b5741d88e8936d6f200ed44b66b2 ]

The NOHZ idle balancer runs on the lowest idle CPU. This can
interfere with isolated CPUs, so confine it to HK_FLAG_MISC
housekeeping CPUs.

HK_FLAG_SCHED is not used for this because it is not set anywhere
at the moment. This could be folded into HK_FLAG_SCHED once that
option is fixed.

The problem was observed with increased jitter on an application
running on CPU0, caused by NOHZ idle load balancing being run on
CPU1 (an SMT sibling).
