* sched: keep total / count stats in addition to the max forArjan van de Ven2008-01-252-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, the linux kernel (with scheduler statistics enabled) keeps track of the maximum time a process is waiting to be scheduled. While the maximum is a very useful metric, tracking average and total is equally useful (at least for latencytop) to figure out the accumulated effect of scheduler delays. The accumulated effect is important to judge the performance impact of scheduler tuning/behavior. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* sched: fix goto retry in pick_next_task_rt()Dmitry Adamushko2008-01-251-7/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | looking at it one more time: (1) it looks to me that there is no need to call sched_rt_ratio_exceeded() from pick_next_rt_entity() - [ for CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED ] queues with rt_rq->rt_throttled are not within this 'tree-like hierarchy' (or whatever we should call it :-) - there is also no need to re-check 'rt_rq->rt_time > ratio' at this point as 'rt_rq->rt_time' couldn't have been increased since the last call to update_curr_rt() (which obviously calls sched_rt_ratio_esceeded()) well, it might be that 'ratio' for this rt_rq has been re-configured (and the period over which this rt_rq was active has not yet been finished)... but I don't think we should really take this into account. (2) now pick_next_rt_entity() must never return NULL, so let's change pick_next_task_rt() accordingly.

* debug: track and print last unloaded module in the oops traceArjan van de Ven2008-01-251-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on a suggestion from Andi: In various cases, the unload of a module may leave some bad state around that causes a kernel crash AFTER a module is unloaded; and it's then hard to find which module caused that. This patch tracks the last unloaded module, and prints this as part of the module list in the oops trace. Right now, only the last 1 module is tracked; I expect that this is enough for the vast majority of cases where this information matters; if it turns out that tracking more is important, we can always extend it to that.

* debug: show being-loaded/being-unloaded indicator for modulesArjan van de Ven2008-01-251-6/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's rather common that an oops/WARN_ON/BUG happens during the load or unload of a module. Unfortunatly, it's not always easy to see directly which module is being loaded/unloaded from the oops itself. Worse, it's not even always possible to ask the bug reporter, since there are so many components (udev etc) that auto-load modules that there's a good chance that even the reporter doesn't know which module this is. This patch extends the existing "show if it's tainting" print code, which is used as part of printing the modules in the oops/BUG/WARN_ON to include a "+" for "being loaded" and a "-" for "being unloaded". As a result this extension, the "taint_flags()" function gets renamed to "module_flags()" (and takes a module struct as argument, not a taint flags int).

The hard time limit is required to keep behaviour deterministic. The algorithms used make the realtime scheduler O(tg), linear scaling wrt the number of task groups.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use HR-timers (when available) to deliver an accurate preemption tick. The regular scheduler tick that runs at 1/HZ can be too coarse when nice level are used. The fairness system will still keep the cpu utilisation 'fair' by then delaying the task that got an excessive amount of CPU time but try to minimize this by delivering preemption points spot-on. The average frequency of this extra interrupt is sched_latency / nr_latency. Which need not be higher than 1/HZ, its just that the distribution within the sched_latency period is important.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements a new version of RCU which allows its read-side critical sections to be preempted. It uses a set of counter pairs to keep track of the read-side critical sections and flips them when all tasks exit read-side critical section. The details of this implementation can be found in this paper - http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/OLSrtRCU.2006.08.11a.pdf and the article- http://lwn.net/Articles/253651/ This patch was developed as a part of the -rt kernel development and meant to provide better latencies when read-side critical sections of RCU don't disable preemption. As a consequence of keeping track of RCU readers, the readers have a slight overhead (optimizations in the paper). This implementation co-exists with the "classic" RCU implementations and can be switched to at compiler. Also includes RCU tracing summarized in debugfs.

* sched: only balance our RT tasks within our domainGregory Haskins2008-01-252-26/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We move the rt-overload data as the first global to per-domain reclassification. This limits the scope of overload related cache-line bouncing to stay with a specified partition instead of affecting all cpus in the system. Finally, we limit the scope of find_lowest_cpu searches to the domain instead of the entire system. Note that we would always respect domain boundaries even without this patch, but we first would scan potentially all cpus before whittling the list down. Now we can avoid looking at RQs that are out of scope, again reducing cache-line hits. Note: In some cases, task->cpus_allowed will effectively reduce our search to within our domain. However, I believe there are cases where the cpus_allowed mask may be all ones and therefore we err on the side of caution. If it can be optimized later, so be it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We add the notion of a root-domain which will be used later to rescope global variables to per-domain variables. Each exclusive cpuset essentially defines an island domain by fully partitioning the member cpus from any other cpuset. However, we currently still maintain some policy/state as global variables which transcend all cpusets. Consider, for instance, rt-overload state. Whenever a new exclusive cpuset is created, we also create a new root-domain object and move each cpu member to the root-domain's span. By default the system creates a single root-domain with all cpus as members (mimicking the global state we have today). We add some plumbing for storing class specific data in our root-domain. Whenever a RQ is switching root-domains (because of repartitioning) we give each sched_class the opportunity to remove any state from its old domain and add state to the new one. This logic doesn't have any clients yet but it will later in the series.
