sched: Transform resched_task() into resched_curr()

2014-07-16T11:38:19+00:00

We always use resched_task() with rq->curr argument.
It's not possible to reschedule any task but rq's current.

The patch introduces resched_curr(struct rq *) to
replace all of the repeating patterns. The main aim
is cleanup, but there is a little size profit too:

  (before)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155274	  16445	   7042	 178761	  2ba49	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	$ size vmlinux
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	7411490	1178376	 991232	9581098	 92322a	vmlinux

  (after)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155130	  16445	   7042	 178617	  2b9b9	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	$ size vmlinux
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	7411362	1178376	 991232	9580970	 9231aa	vmlinux

	I was choosing between resched_curr() and resched_rq(),
	and the first name looks better for me.

A little lie in Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt. I have not
actually collected the tracing again. With a hope the patch
won't make execution times much worse :)

sched/deadline: Delete extraneous extern for to_ratio()

2014-06-05T12:22:24+00:00

There was a prototype for it added to kernel/sched/sched.h
at the same time the extern was added, so the extern in
the C file was never really ever needed.

See commit 332ac17ef5bfcff4766dfdfd3b4cdf10b8f8f155
("sched/deadline: Add bandwidth management for SCHED_DEADLINE
tasks") for details.

sched/dl: Fix race in dl_task_timer()

2014-06-05T09:51:12+00:00

Throttled task is still on rq, and it may be moved to other cpu
if user is playing with sched_setaffinity(). Therefore, unlocked
task_rq() access makes the race.

Juri Lelli reports he got this race when dl_bandwidth_enabled()
was not set.

Other thing, pointed by Peter Zijlstra:

   "Now I suppose the problem can still actually happen when
    you change the root domain and trigger a effective affinity
    change that way".

To fix that we do the same as made in __task_rq_lock(). We do not
use __task_rq_lock() itself, because it has a useful lockdep check,
which is not correct in case of dl_task_timer(). We do not need
pi_lock locked here. This case is an exception (PeterZ):

   "The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
    we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
    thus free of ttwu races".

printk: Add printk_deferred_once

2014-06-04T23:54:17+00:00

Two of the three prink_deferred uses are really printk_once style
uses, so add a printk_deferred_once macro to simplify those call
sites.

printk: rename printk_sched to printk_deferred

2014-06-04T23:54:17+00:00

After learning we'll need some sort of deferred printk functionality in
the timekeeping core, Peter suggested we rename the printk_sched function
so it can be reused by needed subsystems.

This only changes the function name. No logic changes.

sched, nohz: Change rq->nr_running to always use wrappers

2014-05-22T09:16:33+00:00

Sometimes ->nr_running may cross 2 but interrupt is not being
sent to rq's cpu. In this case we don't reenable the timer.
Looks like this may be the reason for rare unexpected effects,
if nohz is enabled.

Patch replaces all places of direct changing of nr_running
and makes add_nr_running() caring about crossing border.
