* cpu/hotplug: Rework callback invocation logicThomas Gleixner2016-09-021-82/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is preparation for the following patch. This rework here changes the arguments of cpuhp_invoke_callback(). It passes now `state' and whether `startup' or `teardown' callback should be invoked. The callback then is looked up by the function. The following is a clanup of callers: - cpuhp_issue_call() has one argument less - struct cpuhp_cpu_state (which is used by the hotplug thread) gets also its callback removed. The decision if it is a single callback invocation moved to the `single' variable. Also a `bringup' variable has been added to distinguish between startup and teardown callback. - take_cpu_down() needs to start one step earlier. We always get here via CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU callback. Before that change cpuhp_ap_states + CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU pointed to an empty entry because TEARDOWN is saved in bp_states for this reason. Now that we use cpuhp_get_step() to lookup the state we must explicitly skip it in order not to invoke it twice.

The callback is performed via cpu_function_call(), which ensures that it runs with interrupts disabled and is therefore not preemptible. Unfortunately, the current code grabs the per-cpu context pointer using get_cpu_ptr(), which unnecessarily disables preemption and doesn't pair the call with put_cpu_ptr(), leading to a preempt_count() imbalance and a BUG when freeing the AUX buffer later on: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2249 at kernel/events/ring_buffer.c:539 __rb_free_aux+0x10c/0x120 Modules linked in: [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff813379dd>] dump_stack+0x4f/0x72 [<ffffffff81059ff6>] __warn+0xc6/0xe0 [<ffffffff8105a0c8>] warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x20 [<ffffffff8112761c>] __rb_free_aux+0x10c/0x120 [<ffffffff81128163>] rb_free_aux+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffff8112515e>] perf_mmap_close+0x29e/0x2f0 [<ffffffff8111da30>] ? perf_iterate_ctx+0xe0/0xe0 [<ffffffff8115f685>] remove_vma+0x25/0x60 [<ffffffff81161796>] exit_mmap+0x106/0x140 [<ffffffff8105725c>] mmput+0x1c/0xd0 [<ffffffff8105cac3>] do_exit+0x253/0xbf0 [<ffffffff8105e32e>] do_group_exit+0x3e/0xb0 [<ffffffff81068d49>] get_signal+0x249/0x640 [<ffffffff8101c273>] do_signal+0x23/0x640 [<ffffffff81905f42>] ? _raw_write_unlock_irq+0x12/0x30 [<ffffffff81905f69>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x9/0x10 [<ffffffff81901896>] ? __schedule+0x2c6/0x710 [<ffffffff810022a4>] exit_to_usermode_loop+0x74/0x90 [<ffffffff81002a56>] prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x26/0x30 [<ffffffff81906d1b>] retint_user+0x8/0x10 This patch uses this_cpu_ptr() instead of get_cpu_ptr(), since preemption is already disabled by the caller.

In order to solve this, let's call __irq_set_trigger just before starting the cascade interrupt. Special care must be taken to make the flow handler stick, as the .irq_set_type method could have reset it (it doesn't know we're dealing with a chained interrupt).

However there is actually no other process would like to grab this lock on that problematic platform. Further investigation showed that the problem is triggered by setting /sys/power/pm_trace to 1 before the 1st hibernation. Since once pm_trace is enabled, the rtc becomes unmeaningful after suspend, and meanwhile some BIOSes would like to adjust the 'invalid' RTC (e.g, smaller than 1970) to the release date of that motherboard during POST stage, thus after resumed, it may seem that the system had a significant long sleep time which is a completely meaningless value. Then in timekeeping_resume -> tk_debug_account_sleep_time, if the bit31 of the sleep time happened to be set to 1, fls() returns 32 and we add 1 to sleep_time_bin[32], which causes an out of bounds array access and therefor memory being overwritten. As depicted by System.map: 0xffffffff81c9d080 b sleep_time_bin 0xffffffff81c9d100 B dma_spin_lock the dma_spin_lock.val is set to 1, which caused this problem. This patch adds a sanity check in tk_debug_account_sleep_time() to ensure we don't index past the sleep_time_bin array.

However, this does not apply to unsigned integers. Heinrich suggested that we introduce a new option to handle 64 bit limits and set min as 0 and max as UINT_MAX. This might not work as it leads to issues similar to __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax. Alternatively, we would need to change the datatype of the entry to 64 bit. static int __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax(void *data, struct ctl_table { i = (unsigned long *) data; //This cast is causing to read beyond the size of data (u32) vleft = table->maxlen / sizeof(unsigned long); //vleft is 0 because maxlen is sizeof(u32) which is lesser than sizeof(unsigned long) on x86_64.

Because of that, we should not limit the amount of steal time accounted to the amount of time that the calling functions think have passed. However, the interval returned by account_other_time() is NOT rounded down to the nearest jiffy, while the base interval in get_vtime_delta() it is subtracted from is, so the max cputime limit is required to avoid underflow. This patch fixes the regression by limiting the account_other_time() from get_vtime_delta() to avoid underflow, and lets the other three call sites (in account_other_time() and steal_account_process_time()) account however much steal time the host told us elapsed.

There can be several mapping for a binary, many times unrelated to the code section. Each time a section of a binary is mapped address filters are updated, event when the map doesn't pertain to the code section. The end result is that filters are configured based on the last map event that was received rather than the last mapping of the code segment. For example if we have an executable 'main' that calls library 'libcstest.so.1.0', and that we want to collect traces on code that is in that library. The perf cmd line for this scenario would be: perf record -e cs_etm// --filter 'filter 0x72c/0x40@/opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0' --per-thread ./main Resulting in binaries being mapped this way: root@linaro-nano:~# cat /proc/1950/maps 00400000-00401000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 33169 /home/linaro/main 00410000-00411000 r--p 00000000 08:02 33169 /home/linaro/main 00411000-00412000 rw-p 00001000 08:02 33169 /home/linaro/main 7fa2464000-7fa2474000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa2474000-7fa25a4000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25a4000-7fa25b3000 ---p 00130000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25b3000-7fa25b7000 r--p 0012f000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25b7000-7fa25b9000 rw-p 00133000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25b9000-7fa25bd000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa25bd000-7fa25be000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25be000-7fa25cd000 ---p 00001000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25cd000-7fa25ce000 r--p 00000000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25ce000-7fa25cf000 rw-p 00001000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25cf000-7fa25eb000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 574 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.21.so 7fa25ef000-7fa25f2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa25f7000-7fa25f9000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa25f9000-7fa25fa000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 7fa25fa000-7fa25fb000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 7fa25fb000-7fa25fc000 r--p 0001c000 08:02 574 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.21.so 7fa25fc000-7fa25fe000 rw-p 0001d000 08:02 574 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.21.so 7ff2ea8000-7ff2ec9000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] root@linaro-nano:~# Before 'main()' can execute 'libcstest.so.1.0' has to be loaded in memory.

But that is wrong since the code segment for library 'libcstest.so.1.0' as been mapped at 0x7fa25bd000, resulting in traces not being collected.

If it walks off the end of the list of nodes, it walks the list of memory zones to find the next region of memory. If it walks off the end of the list of zones, it returns false. This leaves the struct bm_position's node and zone pointers pointing at their respective struct list_heads in struct mem_zone_bm_rtree. memory_bm_find_bit() uses struct bm_position's node and zone pointers to avoid walking lists and trees if the next bit appears in the same node/zone. It handles these values being stale. Swap rtree_next_node()s 'step then test' to 'test-next then step', this means if we reach the end of memory we return false and leave the node and zone pointers as they were.

Tejun says: So, I think in_cgroup should mean that the object is in that particular cgroup while under_cgroup in the subhierarchy of that cgroup. Let's rename the other subhierarchy test to under too. I think that'd be a lot less confusing going forward. [...] It's more intuitive and gives us the room to implement the real "in" test if ever necessary in the future. Since this touches uapi bits, we need to change this as long as v4.8 is not yet officially released. Thus, change the helper enum and rename related bits.

Some programs do: old_value = bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, key); if (old_value) { ... prepare new_value on stack ... bpf_map_update_elem(map, key, new_value); } Before pre-alloc the update() for existing element would work even in 'map full' condition. Restore this behavior. The above program could have updated old_value in place instead of update() which would be faster and most programs use that approach, but sometimes the values are large and the programs use update() helper to do atomic replacement of the element. Note we cannot simply update element's value in-place like percpu hash map does and have to allocate extra num_possible_cpu elements and use this extra reserve when the map is full.

We then read two different bytes from the packet and add them to copies of the constructed packet pointer. r8 (line 9) and r9 (line 11) will get the same id of 1, independently. When either of them is validated (line 13) - find_good_pkt_pointers() will also mark the other as safe. This leads to access on line 14 being mistakenly considered safe.

This causes periodic interrupts when none are needed. When determining the next interrupt time, we first use __next_timer_interrupt() to get the first expiring timer in the timer wheel. If no timer is found, we return the base clock value plus NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA to indicate there is no timer in the timer wheel. Back in get_next_timer_interrupt(), we set the "expires" value by converting the timer wheel expiry (in ticks) to a nsec value. But we don't want to do this if the timer wheel expiry value indicates no timer; we want to return KTIME_MAX. Prior to commit 500462a9de65 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel") we checked base->active_timers to see if any timers were active, and if not, we didn't touch the expiry value and so properly returned KTIME_MAX. Now we don't have active_timers. To fix this, we now just check the timer wheel expiry value to see if it is "now + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA", and if it is, we don't try to compute a new value based on it, but instead simply let the KTIME_MAX value in expires remain.

It addressed the problem by calling the scheduling classes update_curr() when the cputimer starts. Said change induced a considerable performance regression on the syscalls times() and clock_gettimes(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID). There are some debuggers and applications that monitor their own performance that accidentally depend on the performance of these specific calls. This patch mitigates the performace loss by prefetching data in the CPU cache, as stalls due to cache misses appear to be where most time is spent in our benchmarks. Here are the performance gain of this patch over v4.7-rc7 on a Sandy Bridge box with 32 logical cores and 2 NUMA nodes. The test is repeated with a variable number of threads, from 2 to 4*num_cpus; the results are in seconds and correspond to the average of 10 runs; the percentage gain is computed with (before-after)/before so a positive value is an improvement (it's faster). The improvement varies between a few percents for 5-20 threads and more than 10% for 2 or >20 threads. pound_clock_gettime: threads 4.7-rc7 patched 4.7-rc7 [num] [secs] [secs (percent)] 2 3.48 3.06 ( 11.83%) 5 3.33 3.25 ( 2.40%) 8 3.37 3.26 ( 3.30%) 12 3.32 3.37 ( -1.60%) 21 4.01 3.90 ( 2.74%) 30 3.63 3.36 ( 7.41%) 48 3.71 3.11 ( 16.27%) 79 3.75 3.16 ( 15.74%) 110 3.81 3.25 ( 14.80%) 128 3.88 3.31 ( 14.76%) pound_times: threads 4.7-rc7 patched 4.7-rc7 [num] [secs] [secs (percent)] 2 3.65 3.25 ( 11.03%) 5 3.45 3.17 ( 7.92%) 8 3.52 3.22 ( 8.69%) 12 3.29 3.36 ( -2.04%) 21 4.07 3.92 ( 3.78%) 30 3.87 3.40 ( 12.17%) 48 3.79 3.16 ( 16.61%) 79 3.88 3.28 ( 15.42%) 110 3.90 3.38 ( 13.35%) 128 4.00 3.38 ( 15.45%) pound_clock_gettime and pound_clock_gettime are two benchmarks included in the MMTests framework. They launch a given number of threads which repeatedly call times() or clock_gettimes(). The results above can be reproduced with cloning MMTests from github.com and running the "poundtime" workload: $ git clone https://github.com/gormanm/mmtests.git $ cd mmtests $ cp configs/config-global-dhp__workload_poundtime config $ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r) The above will run "poundtime" measuring the kernel currently running on the machine; Once a new kernel is installed and the machine rebooted, running again $ cd mmtests $ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r) will produce results to compare with. A comparison table will be output with: $ cd mmtests/work/log $ ../../compare-kernels.sh the table will contain a lot of entries; grepping for "Amean" (as in "arithmetic mean") will give the tables presented above. The source code for the two benchmarks is reported at the end of this changelog for clairity. The cache misses addressed by this patch were found using a combination of `perf top`, `perf record` and `perf annotate`. The incriminated lines were found to be struct sched_entity *curr = cfs_rq->curr; and delta_exec = now - curr->exec_start; in the function update_curr() from kernel/sched/fair.c. This patch prefetches the data from memory just before update_curr is called in the interested execution path. A comparison of the total number of cycles before and after the patch follows; the data is obtained using `perf stat -r 10 -ddd <program>` running over the same sequence of number of threads used above (a positive gain is an improvement): threads cycles before cycles after gain 2 19,699,563,964 +-1.19% 17,358,917,517 +-1.85% 11.88% 5 47,401,089,566 +-2.96% 45,103,730,829 +-0.97% 4.85% 8 80,923,501,004 +-3.01% 71,419,385,977 +-0.77% 11.74% 12 112,326,485,473 +-0.47% 110,371,524,403 +-0.47% 1.74% 21 193,455,574,299 +-0.72% 180,120,667,904 +-0.36% 6.89% 30 315,073,519,013 +-1.64% 271,222,225,950 +-1.29% 13.92% 48 321,969,515,332 +-1.48% 273,353,977,321 +-1.16% 15.10% 79 337,866,003,422 +-0.97% 289,462,481,538 +-1.05% 14.33% 110 338,712,691,920 +-0.78% 290,574,233,170 +-0.77% 14.21% 128 348,384,794,006 +-0.50% 292,691,648,206 +-0.66% 15.99% A comparison of cache miss vs total cache loads ratios, before and after the patch (again from the `perf stat -r 10 -ddd <program>` tables): threads L1 misses/total*100 L1 misses/total*100 gain before after 2 7.43 +-4.90% 7.36 +-4.70% 0.94% 5 13.09 +-4.74% 13.52 +-3.73% -3.28% 8 13.79 +-5.61% 12.90 +-3.27% 6.45% 12 11.57 +-2.44% 8.71 +-1.40% 24.72% 21 12.39 +-3.92% 9.97 +-1.84% 19.53% 30 13.91 +-2.53% 11.73 +-2.28% 15.67% 48 13.71 +-1.59% 12.32 +-1.97% 10.14% 79 14.44 +-0.66% 13.40 +-1.06% 7.20% 110 15.86 +-0.50% 14.46 +-0.59% 8.83% 128 16.51 +-0.32% 15.06 +-0.78% 8.78% As a final note, the following shows the evolution of performance figures in the "poundtime" benchmark and pinpoints commit 6e998916dfe3 ("sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency") as a major source of degradation, mostly unaddressed to this day (figures expressed in seconds). pound_clock_gettime: threads parent of 6e998916dfe3 4.7-rc7 6e998916dfe3 itself 2 2.23 3.68 ( -64.56%) 3.48 (-55.48%) 5 2.83 3.78 ( -33.42%) 3.33 (-17.43%) 8 2.84 4.31 ( -52.12%) 3.37 (-18.76%) 12 3.09 3.61 ( -16.74%) 3.32 ( -7.17%) 21 3.14 4.63 ( -47.36%) 4.01 (-27.71%) 30 3.28 5.75 ( -75.37%) 3.63 (-10.80%) 48 3.02 6.05 (-100.56%) 3.71 (-22.99%) 79 2.88 6.30 (-118.90%) 3.75 (-30.26%) 110 2.95 6.46 (-119.00%) 3.81 (-29.24%) 128 3.05 6.42 (-110.08%) 3.88 (-27.04%) pound_times: threads parent of 6e998916dfe3 4.7-rc7 6e998916dfe3 itself 2 2.27 3.73 ( -64.71%) 3.65 (-61.14%) 5 2.78 3.77 ( -35.56%) 3.45 (-23.98%) 8 2.79 4.41 ( -57.71%) 3.52 (-26.05%) 12 3.02 3.56 ( -17.94%) 3.29 ( -9.08%) 21 3.10 4.61 ( -48.74%) 4.07 (-31.34%) 30 3.33 5.75 ( -72.53%) 3.87 (-16.01%) 48 2.96 6.06 (-105.04%) 3.79 (-28.10%) 79 2.88 6.24 (-116.83%) 3.88 (-34.81%) 110 2.98 6.37 (-114.08%) 3.90 (-31.12%) 128 3.10 6.35 (-104.61%) 4.00 (-28.87%) The source code of the two benchmarks follows.

However, the function compares the new deadline to set with the one previously in the elem, which is 0. So, if current absolute deadlines grew so much to have negative values as s64, the comparison in cpudl_change_key() makes the wrong decision. Instead, as from dl_time_before(), the kernel should handle correctly abs deadlines wrap-arounds. This patch fixes the problem with a minimally invasive change that forces cpudl_change_key() to heapify up in this case.

The underlying problem is that there is an optimization in perf_cgroup_sched_{in,out}() that skips the switch of cgroup events if the old and new cgroups in a task switch are the same. This optimization interacts with the current code in two ways that cause a CPU context's cgroup (cpuctx->cgrp) to be NULL even if a cgroup event matches the current task. These are: 1. On creation of the first cgroup event in a CPU: In current code, cpuctx->cpu is only set in perf_cgroup_sched_in, but due to the aforesaid optimization, perf_cgroup_sched_in will run until the next cgroup switches in that CPU. This may happen late or never happen, depending on system's number of cgroups, CPU load, etc. 2. On deletion of the last cgroup event in a cpuctx: In list_del_event, cpuctx->cgrp is set NULL. Any new cgroup event will not be sched in because cpuctx->cgrp == NULL until a cgroup switch occurs and perf_cgroup_sched_in is executed (updating cpuctx->cgrp). This patch fixes both problems by setting cpuctx->cgrp in list_add_event, mirroring what list_del_event does when removing a cgroup event from CPU context, as introduced in: commit 68cacd29167b ("perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()") With this patch, cpuctx->cgrp is always set/clear when installing/removing the first/last cgroup event in/from the CPU context. With cpuctx->cgrp correctly set, event_filter_match works as intended when events are sched in/out. After the fix, the output is as expected: $ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -a -G / # time counts unit events 1.004699159 627342882 cycles / 2.007397156 615272690 cycles / 3.010019057 616726074 cycles / Signed-off-by: David Carrillo-Cisneros <davidcc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Cc: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1470124092-113192-1-git-send-email-davidcc@google.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
