[ Upstream commit 345a957fcc95630bf5535d7668a59ed983eb49a7 ]

do_sched_yield() invokes schedule() with interrupts disabled which is
not allowed. This goes back to the pre git era to commit a6efb709806c
("[PATCH] irqlock patch 2.5.27-H6") in the history tree.

Reenable interrupts and remove the misleading comment which "explains" it.

[ 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()
    --&gt;	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 &lt; dl_b-&gt;total_bw)    &lt;-------
				ret = -EBUSY;
		}
	}

But under CONFIG_SMP, dl_bw is per root domain , but not per CPU,
dl_b-&gt;total_bw is the allocated bandwidth of the whole root domain.
Instead, we should compare dl_b-&gt;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 (&lt; 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.

<title>membarrier: Explicitly sync remote cores when SYNC_CORE is requested</title>

commit 758c9373d84168dc7d039cf85a0e920046b17b41 upstream.

membarrier() does not explicitly sync_core() remote CPUs; instead, it
relies on the assumption that an IPI will result in a core sync.  On x86,
this may be true in practice, but it's not architecturally reliable.  In
particular, the SDM and APM do not appear to guarantee that interrupt
delivery is serializing.  While IRET does serialize, IPI return can
schedule, thereby switching to another task in the same mm that was
sleeping in a syscall.  The new task could then SYSRET back to usermode
without ever executing IRET.

Make this more robust by explicitly calling sync_core_before_usermode()
on remote cores.  (This also helps people who search the kernel tree for
instances of sync_core() and sync_core_before_usermode() -- one might be
surprised that the core membarrier code doesn't currently show up in a
such a search.)

[ Upstream commit 39f23ce07b9355d05a64ae303ce20d1c4b92b957 ]

Although not exactly identical, unthrottle_cfs_rq() and enqueue_task_fair()
are quite close and follow the same sequence for enqueuing an entity in the
cfs hierarchy. Modify unthrottle_cfs_rq() to use the same pattern as
enqueue_task_fair(). This fixes a problem already faced with the latter and
add an optimization in the last for_each_sched_entity loop.

commit 8e1ac4299a6e8726de42310d9c1379f188140c71 upstream.

enqueue_task_fair() attempts to skip the overutilized update for new
tasks as their util_avg is not accurate yet. However, the flag we check
to do so is overwritten earlier on in the function, which makes the
condition pretty much a nop.

Fix this by saving the flag early on.

[ Upstream commit df3cb4ea1fb63ff326488efd671ba3c39034255e ]

We've met problems that occasionally tasks with full cpumask
(e.g. by putting it into a cpuset or setting to full affinity)
were migrated to our isolated cpus in production environment.

After some analysis, we found that it is due to the current
select_idle_smt() not considering the sched_domain mask.

Steps to reproduce on my 31-CPU hyperthreads machine:
1. with boot parameter: "isolcpus=domain,2-31"
   (thread lists: 0,16 and 1,17)
2. cgcreate -g cpu:test; cgexec -g cpu:test "test_threads"
3. some threads will be migrated to the isolated cpu16~17.

Fix it by checking the valid domain mask in select_idle_smt().

<title>sched/fair: Eliminate bandwidth race between throttling and distribution</title>

[ Upstream commit e98fa02c4f2ea4991dae422ac7e34d102d2f0599 ]

There is a race window in which an entity begins throttling before quota
is added to the pool, but does not finish throttling until after we have
finished with distribute_cfs_runtime(). This entity is not observed by
distribute_cfs_runtime() because it was not on the throttled list at the
time that distribution was running. This race manifests as rare
period-length statlls for such entities.

Rather than heavy-weight the synchronization with the progress of
distribution, we can fix this by aborting throttling if bandwidth has
become available. Otherwise, we immediately add the entity to the
throttled list so that it can be observed by a subsequent distribution.

Additionally, we can remove the case of adding the throttled entity to
the head of the throttled list, and simply always add to the tail.
Thanks to 26a8b12747c97, distribute_cfs_runtime() no longer holds onto
its own pool of runtime. This means that if we do hit the !assign and
distribute_running case, we know that distribution is about to end.

[ Upstream commit 62849a9612924a655c67cf6962920544aa5c20db ]

The kernel test robot triggered a warning with the following race:
   task-ctx A                            interrupt-ctx B
 worker
  -&gt; process_one_work()
    -&gt; work_item()
      -&gt; schedule();
         -&gt; sched_submit_work()
           -&gt; wq_worker_sleeping()
             -&gt; -&gt;sleeping = 1
               atomic_dec_and_test(nr_running)
         __schedule();                *interrupt*
                                       async_page_fault()
                                       -&gt; local_irq_enable();
                                       -&gt; schedule();
                                          -&gt; sched_submit_work()
                                            -&gt; wq_worker_sleeping()
                                               -&gt; if (WARN_ON(-&gt;sleeping)) return
                                          -&gt; __schedule()
                                            -&gt;  sched_update_worker()
                                              -&gt; wq_worker_running()
                                                 -&gt; atomic_inc(nr_running);
                                                 -&gt; -&gt;sleeping = 0;

      -&gt;  sched_update_worker()
        -&gt; wq_worker_running()
          if (!-&gt;sleeping) return

In this context the warning is pointless everything is fine.
An interrupt before wq_worker_sleeping() will perform the -&gt;sleeping
assignment (0 -&gt; 1 &gt; 0) twice.
An interrupt after wq_worker_sleeping() will trigger the warning and
nr_running will be decremented (by A) and incremented once (only by B, A
will skip it). This is the case until the -&gt;sleeping is zeroed again in
wq_worker_running().

Remove the WARN statement because this condition may happen. Document
that preemption around wq_worker_sleeping() needs to be disabled to
protect -&gt;sleeping and not just as an optimisation.
