| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Avoid extra work by continuing on to the next rt_rq if the highest prio task in current rt_rq is the same priority as our candidate task. More detailed explanation: if next is not NULL, then we have found a candidate task, and its priority is next->prio. Now we are looking for an even higher priority task in the other rt_rq's. idx is the highest priority in the current candidate rt_rq. In the current 3.3 code, if idx is equal to next->prio, we would start scanning the tasks in that rt_rq and replace the current candidate task with a task from that rt_rq. But the new task would only have a priority that is equal to our previous candidate task, so we have not advanced our goal of finding a higher prio task. So we should avoid the extra work by continuing on to the next rt_rq if idx is equal to next->prio.

| * sched: Fix select_fallback_rq() vs cpu_active/cpu_onlinePeter Zijlstra2012-03-271-16/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5fbd036b55 ("sched: Cleanup cpu_active madness"), which was supposed to finally sort the cpu_active mess, instead uncovered more. Since CPU_STARTING is ran before setting the cpu online, there's a (small) window where the cpu has active,!online. If during this time there's a wakeup of a task that used to reside on that cpu select_task_rq() will use select_fallback_rq() to compute an alternative cpu to run on since we find !online. select_fallback_rq() however will compute the new cpu against cpu_active, this means that it can return the same cpu it started out with, the !online one, since that cpu is in fact marked active. This results in us trying to scheduling a task on an offline cpu and triggering a WARN in the IPI code. The solution proposed by Chuansheng Liu of setting cpu_active in set_cpu_online() is buggy, firstly not all archs actually use set_cpu_online(), secondly, not all archs call set_cpu_online() with IRQs disabled, this means we would introduce either the same race or the race from fd8a7de17 ("x86: cpu-hotplug: Prevent softirq wakeup on wrong CPU") -- albeit much narrower. [ By setting online first and active later we have a window of online,!active, fresh and bound kthreads have task_cpu() of 0 and since cpu0 isn't in tsk_cpus_allowed() we end up in select_fallback_rq() which excludes !active, resulting in a reset of ->cpus_allowed and the thread running all over the place. ] The solution is to re-work select_fallback_rq() to require active _and_ online. This makes the active,!online case work as expected, OTOH archs running CPU_STARTING after setting online are now vulnerable to the issue from fd8a7de17 -- these are alpha and blackfin.

This is required because we only update the sched_domain tree after we brought the cpu-down. And this is needed so that some tasks can still run while we bring it down, we just don't want new tasks to appear. On cpu-up however the sched_domain tree doesn't yet include the new cpu, so its invisible to the load-balancer, regardless of the active state. So instead of setting the active state after we boot the new cpu (and consequently having to wait for it before enabling interrupts) set the cpu active before we set it online and avoid the whole mess.

So stop pretending it makes sense and enqueue all tasks on a single list. This also allows us to more easily fix the fwd progress issue uncovered by the lock-break stuff. Rotate the list on failure to migreate and limit the total iterations to nr_running (which with releasing the lock isn't strictly accurate but close enough). Also add a filter that skips very light tasks on the first attempt around the list, this attempts to avoid shooting whole cgroups around without affecting over balance.

We can safely ignore the boosting request, as the idle CPU runs this code with interrupts disabled and will complete the lock protected section without being interrupted.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a runqueue has rt_runtime_us = 0 then the only way it can accumulate rt_time is via PI boosting. That causes the runqueue to be throttled and replenishing does not change anything due to rt_runtime_us = 0. So avoid that situation by clearing rt_time and skip the throttling alltogether.

It's broken: the first sample we get on a task might be bad because of a stale sleep_start value that wasn't reset at the last task switch because the tracepoint was not active. It also breaks the existing schedstat samples due to the side effects of: - se->statistics.sleep_start = 0; ... - se->statistics.block_start = 0; Nor do I see means to fix it without adding overhead to the scheduler fast path, which I'm not willing to for the sake of redundant instrumentation. Most importantly, sleep time information can already be constructed by tracing context switches and wakeups, and taking the timestamp difference between the schedule-out, the wakeup and the schedule-in.

It should also address the various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels. Typical usage scenarios: #include <linux/static_key.h> struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE; if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code Or: if (static_key_true(&key)) do likely code else do unlikely code The static key is modified via: static_key_slow_inc(&key); ... static_key_slow_dec(&key); The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an expensive operation. I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit. On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to likely()/unlikely() branches.

* | sched/nohz: Fix nohz cpu idle load balancing state with cpu hotplugSuresh Siddha2012-01-261-5/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the recent nohz scheduler changes, rq's nohz flag 'NOHZ_TICK_STOPPED' and its associated state doesn't get cleared immediately after the cpu exits idle. This gets cleared as part of the next tick seen on that cpu. For the cpu offline support, we need to clear this state manually. Fix it by registering a cpu notifier, which clears the nohz idle load balance state for this rq explicitly during the CPU_DYING notification. There won't be any nohz updates for that cpu, after the CPU_DYING notification. But lets be extra paranoid and skip updating the nohz state in the select_nohz_load_balancer() if the cpu is not in active state anymore. Reported-by: Srivatsa S.

However it should be completely invariant to nr_uninterruptible accounting, sched_setscheduler() doesn't affect readyness to run, merely policy on when to run. So convert the inappropriate activate/deactivate_task usage to enqueue/dequeue_task, which avoids the nr_uninterruptible accounting. Also convert the two other sites: __migrate_task() and normalize_task() that still use activate/deactivate_task. These sites aren't really a problem since __migrate_task() will only be called on non-running task (and therefore are immume to the described problem) and normalize_task() isn't ever used on regular systems. Also remove the comments from activate/deactivate_task since they're misleading at best.

* sched/tracing: Add a new tracepoint for sleeptimeArun Sharma2011-12-232-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS is defined, the kernel maintains information about how long the task was sleeping or in the case of iowait, blocking in the kernel before getting woken up. This will be useful for sleep time profiling. Note: this information is only provided for sched_fair. Other scheduling classes may choose to provide this in the future. Note: the delay includes the time spent on the runqueue as well.
