| * sched: Remove superfluous resetting of the p->dl_throttled flagWanpeng Li2015-06-191-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Resetting the p->dl_throttled flag in rt_mutex_setprio() (for a task that is going to be boosted) is superfluous, as the natural place to do so is in replenish_dl_entity(). If the task was on the runqueue and it is boosted by a DL task, it will be enqueued back with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH flag set, which can guarantee that dl_throttled is reset in replenish_dl_entity(). This patch drops the resetting of throttled status in function rt_mutex_setprio().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pull_dl_task() uses pick_next_earliest_dl_task() to select a migration candidate; this is sub-optimal since the next earliest task -- as per the regular runqueue -- might not be migratable at all. This could result in iterating the entire runqueue looking for a task. Instead iterate the pushable queue -- this queue only contains tasks that have at least 2 cpus set in their cpus_allowed mask.

| * sched/numa: Only consider less busy nodes as numa balancing destinationsRik van Riel2015-06-071-2/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changeset a43455a1d572 ("sched/numa: Ensure task_numa_migrate() checks the preferred node") fixes an issue where workloads would never converge on a fully loaded (or overloaded) system. However, it introduces a regression on less than fully loaded systems, where workloads converge on a few NUMA nodes, instead of properly staying spread out across the whole system. This leads to a reduction in available memory bandwidth, and usable CPU cache, with predictable performance problems. The root cause appears to be an interaction between the load balancer and NUMA balancing, where the short term load represented by the load balancer differs from the long term load the NUMA balancing code would like to base its decisions on. Simply reverting a43455a1d572 would re-introduce the non-convergence of workloads on fully loaded systems, so that is not a good option. As an aside, the check done before a43455a1d572 only applied to a task's preferred node, not to other candidate nodes in the system, so the converge-on-too-few-nodes problem still happens, just to a lesser degree. Instead, try to compensate for the impedance mismatch between the load balancer and NUMA balancing by only ever considering a lesser loaded node as a destination for NUMA balancing, regardless of whether the task is trying to move to the preferred node, or to another node. This patch also addresses the issue that a system with a single runnable thread would never migrate that thread to near its memory, introduced by 095bebf61a46 ("sched/numa: Do not move past the balance point if unbalanced"). A test where the main thread creates a large memory area, and spawns a worker thread to iterate over the memory (placed on another node by select_task_rq_fair), after which the main thread goes to sleep and waits for the worker thread to loop over all the memory now sees the worker thread migrated to where the memory is, instead of having all the memory migrated over like before. Jirka has run a number of performance tests on several systems: single instance SpecJBB 2005 performance is 7-15% higher on a 4 node system, with higher gains on systems with more cores per socket. Multi-instance SpecJBB 2005 (one per node), linpack, and stream see little or no changes with the revert of 095bebf61a46 and this patch.

Instead, the thread would remain where it was, and pull all the memory across to its location, which is much slower than just migrating the thread to where the memory is.

This is so that we can avoid a put/set on the common ancestors of the old and new task. Similarly, we should only call check_cfs_rq_runtime() to throttle eligible groups if they're part of the common ancestry, otherwise it is possible to end up with no eligible task in the simple task selection. Imagine: /root /prev /next /A /B If our optimistic selection ends up throttling /next, we goto simple and our put_prev_task() ends up throttling /prev, after which we're going to bug out in set_next_entity() because there aren't any tasks left. Avoid this scenario by only throttling common ancestors.

| * preempt: Use preempt_schedule_context() as the official tracing preemption pointFrederic Weisbecker2015-06-078-32/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | preempt_schedule_context() is a tracing safe preemption point but it's only used when CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING=y. Other configs have tracing recursion issues since commit: b30f0e3ffedf ("sched/preempt: Optimize preemption operations on __schedule() callers") introduced function based preemp_count_*() ops. Lets make it available on all configs and give it a more appropriate name for its new position.

| * sched: Make preempt_schedule_context() function-tracing safeFrederic Weisbecker2015-06-071-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since function tracing disables preemption, it needs a safe preemption point to use when preemption is re-enabled without worrying about tracing recursion. Ie: to avoid tracing recursion, that preemption point can't be traced (use of notrace qualifier) and it can't call any traceable function before that preemption point disables preemption itself, which disarms the recursion. preempt_schedule() was fine until commit: b30f0e3ffedf ("sched/preempt: Optimize preemption operations on __schedule() callers") because PREEMPT_ACTIVE (which has the property to disable preemption and this disarm tracing preemption recursion) was set before calling any further function. But that commit introduced the use of preempt_count_add/sub() functions to set PREEMPT_ACTIVE and because these functions are called before preemption gets a chance to be disabled, we have a tracing recursion. preempt_schedule_context() is one of the possible preemption functions used by tracing. Its special purpose is to avoid tracing recursion against context tracking. Lets enhance this function to become more generally tracing safe by disabling preemption with raw accessors, such that no function is called before preemption gets disabled and disarm the tracing recursion. This function is going to become the specific tracing-safe preemption point in further commit.

This patch always gives preference to preferred node evaluations, and only checks the number of faults when evaluating moves between two non-preferred nodes on a larger NUMA system. On a two node system, the number of faults is never evaluated. Either a task is about to be pulled off its preferred node, or migrated onto it.

| * | sched/wait: Introduce TASK_NOLOAD and TASK_IDLEPeter Zijlstra2015-05-192-4/+9

Having all idle kthreads contribute to the loadavg is somewhat silly. Now mostly this works OK, because kthreads have all their signals masked. However there's a few sites where this is causing problems and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE should be used, except for that loadavg issue. This patch adds TASK_NOLOAD which, when combined with TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE avoids the loadavg accounting. As most of imagined usage sites are loops where a thread wants to idle, waiting for work, a helper TASK_IDLE is introduced.
