wait_on_bit: add an acquire memory barrier
There are several places in the kernel where wait_on_bit is not followed by a memory barrier (for example, in drivers/md/dm-bufio.c:new_read). On architectures with weak memory ordering, it may happen that memory accesses that follow wait_on_bit are reordered before wait_on_bit and they may return invalid data. Fix this class of bugs by introducing a new function "test_bit_acquire" that works like test_bit, but has acquire memory ordering semantics.

Several core optimizations:
* threadgroup_rwsem write locking is skipped when configuring controllers in
empty subtrees. Combined with CLONE_INTO_CGROUP, this allows the common
static usage pattern to not grab threadgroup_rwsem at all (glibc still
doesn't seem ready for CLONE_INTO_CGROUP unfortunately).
* threadgroup_rwsem used to be put into non-percpu mode by default due to
latency concerns in specific use cases. There's no reason for everyone
else to pay for it. Make the behavior optional.
* psi no longer allocates memory when disabled.
along with some code cleanups.

sched/rt: Fix Sparse warnings due to undefined rt.c declarations
There are several symbols defined in kernel/sched/sched.h but get wrapped in CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED, even though dummy versions get built in rt.c and therefore trigger Sparse warnings: kernel/sched/rt.c:309:6: warning: symbol 'unregister_rt_sched_group' was not declared.

sched, cpuset: Fix dl_cpu_busy() panic due to empty cs->cpus_allowed
With cgroup v2, the cpuset's cpus_allowed mask can be empty indicating
that the cpuset will just use the effective CPUs of its parent. So
cpuset_can_attach() can call task_can_attach() with an empty mask.
This can lead to cpumask_any_and() returns nr_cpu_ids causing the call
to dl_bw_of() to crash due to percpu value access of an out of bound
CPU value. For example:
[80468.182258] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff8b6648b0
:
[80468.191019] RIP: 0010:dl_cpu_busy+0x30/0x2b0

[80468.224287] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae
Fix that by using effective_cpus instead. For cgroup v1, effective_cpus
is the same as cpus_allowed. For v2, effective_cpus is the real cpumask
to be used by tasks within the cpuset anyway.
Also update task_can_attach()'s 2nd argument name to cs_effective_cpus to
reflect the change. In addition, a check is added to task_can_attach()
to guard against the possibility that cpumask_any_and() may return a
value >= nr_cpu_ids.

This cycle's scheduler updates for v6.0 are:
Load-balancing improvements:
============================
- Improve NUMA balancing on AMD Zen systems for affine workloads.
- Improve the handling of reduced-capacity CPUs in load-balancing.
- Energy Model improvements: fix & refine all the energy fairness metrics (PELT),
and remove the conservative threshold requiring 6% energy savings to
migrate a task. Doing this improves power efficiency for most workloads,
and also increases the reliability of energy-efficiency scheduling.
- Optimize/tweak select_idle_cpu() to spend (much) less time searching
for an idle CPU on overloaded systems. There's reports of several
milliseconds spent there on large systems with large workloads ...
[ Since the search logic changed, there might be behavioral side effects. ]
- Improve NUMA imbalance behavior. On certain systems
with spare capacity, initial placement of tasks is non-deterministic,
and such an artificial placement imbalance can persist for a long time,
hurting (and sometimes helping) performance.
The fix is to make fork-time task placement consistent with runtime
NUMA balancing placement.
Note that some performance regressions were reported against this,
caused by workloads that are not memory bandwith limited, which benefit
from the artificial locality of the placement bug(s). Mel Gorman's
conclusion, with which we concur, was that consistency is better than
random workload benefits from non-deterministic bugs:
"Given there is no crystal ball and it's a tradeoff, I think it's
better to be consistent and use similar logic at both fork time
and runtime even if it doesn't have universal benefit."
- Improve core scheduling by fixing a bug in sched_core_update_cookie() that
caused unnecessary forced idling.
- Improve wakeup-balancing by allowing same-LLC wakeup of idle CPUs for newly
woken tasks.
- Fix a newidle balancing bug that introduced unnecessary wakeup latencies.
ABI improvements/fixes:
=======================
- Do not check capabilities and do not issue capability check denial messages
when a scheduler syscall doesn't require privileges. (Such as increasing niceness.)
- Add forced-idle accounting to cgroups too.
- Fix/improve the RSEQ ABI to not just silently accept unknown flags.
(No existing tooling is known to have learned to rely on the previous behavior.)
- Depreciate the (unused) RSEQ_CS_FLAG_NO_RESTART_ON_* flags.
Optimizations:
==============
- Optimize & simplify leaf_cfs_rq_list()
- Micro-optimize set_nr_{and_not,if}_polling() via try_cmpxchg().
Misc fixes & cleanups:
======================
- Fix the RSEQ self-tests on RISC-V and Glibc 2.35 systems.
- Fix a full-NOHZ bug that can in some cases result in the tick not being
re-enabled when the last SCHED_RT task is gone from a runqueue but there's
still SCHED_OTHER tasks around.
- Various PREEMPT_RT related fixes.
- Misc cleanups & smaller fixes.

better than random workload benefits from non-deterministic bugs:
"Given there is no crystal ball and it's a tradeoff, I think
it's better to be consistent and use similar logic at both fork
time and runtime even if it doesn't have universal benefit."
- Improve core scheduling by fixing a bug in
sched_core_update_cookie() that caused unnecessary forced idling.
- Improve wakeup-balancing by allowing same-LLC wakeup of idle CPUs
for newly woken tasks.
- Fix a newidle balancing bug that introduced unnecessary wakeup
latencies.
ABI improvements/fixes:
- Do not check capabilities and do not issue capability check denial
messages when a scheduler syscall doesn't require privileges. (Such
as increasing niceness.)
- Add forced-idle accounting to cgroups too.
- Fix/improve the RSEQ ABI to not just silently accept unknown flags.
(No existing tooling is known to have learned to rely on the
previous behavior.)
- Depreciate the (unused) RSEQ_CS_FLAG_NO_RESTART_ON_* flags.
Optimizations:
- Optimize & simplify leaf_cfs_rq_list()
- Micro-optimize set_nr_{and_not,if}_polling() via try_cmpxchg().
Misc fixes & cleanups:
- Fix the RSEQ self-tests on RISC-V and Glibc 2.35 systems.
- Fix a full-NOHZ bug that can in some cases result in the tick not
being re-enabled when the last SCHED_RT task is gone from a
runqueue but there's still SCHED_OTHER tasks around.
- Various PREEMPT_RT related fixes.

io_uring: move to separate directory
In preparation for splitting io_uring up a bit, move it into its own top level directory. It didn't really belong in fs/ anyway, as it's not a file system only API.

sched/core: Fix the bug that task won't enqueue into core tree when update cookie
In function sched_core_update_cookie(), a task will enqueue into the
core tree only when it enqueued before, that is, if an uncookied task
is cookied, it will not enqueue into the core tree until it enqueue
again, which will result in unnecessary force idle.
Here follows the scenario:
CPU x and CPU y are a pair of SMT siblings.
1. Start task a running on CPU x without sleeping, and task b and
task c running on CPU y without sleeping.
2. We create a cookie and share it to task a and task b, and then
we create another cookie and share it to task c.
3. Simpling core_forceidle_sum of task a and b from /proc/PID/sched
And we will find out that core_forceidle_sum of task a takes 30%
time of the sampling period, which shouldn't happen as task a and b
have the same cookie.
Then we migrate task a to CPU x', migrate task b and c to CPU y', where
CPU x' and CPU y' are a pair of SMT siblings, and sampling again, we
will found out that core_forceidle_sum of task a and b are almost zero.
To solve this problem, we enqueue the task into the core tree if it's
on rq.

nohz/full, sched/rt: Fix missed tick-reenabling bug in dequeue_task_rt()
dequeue_task_rt() only decrements 'rt_rq->rt_nr_running' after having
called sched_update_tick_dependency() preventing it from re-enabling the
tick on systems that no longer have pending SCHED_RT tasks but have
multiple runnable SCHED_OTHER tasks:
dequeue_task_rt()
dequeue_rt_entity()
dequeue_rt_stack()
dequeue_top_rt_rq()
sub_nr_running() // decrements rq->nr_running
sched_update_tick_dependency()
sched_can_stop_tick() // checks rq->rt.rt_nr_running,
...
__dequeue_rt_entity()
dec_rt_tasks() // decrements rq->rt.rt_nr_running
...
Every other scheduler class performs the operation in the opposite
order, and sched_update_tick_dependency() expects the values to be
updated as such. So avoid the misbehaviour by inverting the order in
which the above operations are performed in the RT scheduler.

sched/deadline: Fix BUG_ON condition for deboosted tasks
Tasks the are being deboosted from SCHED_DEADLINE might enter
enqueue_task_dl() one last time and hit an erroneous BUG_ON condition:
since they are not boosted anymore, the if (is_dl_boosted()) branch is
not taken, but the else if (!dl_prio) is and inside this one we
BUG_ON(!is_dl_boosted), which is of course false (BUG_ON triggered)
otherwise we had entered the if branch above. Long story short, the
current condition doesn't make sense and always leads to triggering of a
BUG.
Fix this by only checking enqueue flags, properly: ENQUEUE_REPLENISH has
to be present, but additional flags are not a problem.

Here the kworker is waiting on msdos_sb_info::s_lock which is held by
tar which is in turn waiting for a buffer which is locked waiting to be
flushed, but this operation is plugged in the kworker.
The lock is a normal struct mutex, so tsk_is_pi_blocked() will always
return false on !RT and thus the behaviour changes for RT.
It seems that the intent here is to skip blk_flush_plug() in the case
where a non-preemptible lock (such as a spinlock) has been converted to
a rtmutex on RT, which is the case covered by the SM_RTLOCK_WAIT
schedule flag. But sched_submit_work() is only called from schedule()
which is never called in this scenario, so the check can simply be
deleted.
Looking at the history of the -rt patchset, in fact this change was
present from v5.9.1-rt20 until being dropped in v5.13-rt1 as it was part
of a larger patch [1] most of which was replaced by commit

sched/fair: fix case with reduced capacity CPU
The capacity of the CPU available for CFS tasks can be reduced because of other activities running on the latter. In such case, it's worth trying to move CFS tasks on a CPU with more available capacity. The rework of the load balance has filtered the case when the CPU is classified to be fully busy but its capacity is reduced. Check if CPU's capacity is reduced while gathering load balance statistic and classify it group_misfit_task instead of group_fully_busy so we can try to move the load on another CPU.

sched/fair: Remove the energy margin in feec()
find_energy_efficient_cpu() integrates a margin to protect tasks from bouncing back and forth from a CPU to another. This margin is set as being 6% of the total current energy estimated on the system. This however does not work for two reasons: 1. The energy estimation is not a good absolute value: compute_energy() used in feec() is a good estimation for task placement as it allows to compare the energy with and without a task. The computed delta will give a good overview of the cost for a certain task placement. It, however, doesn't work as an absolute estimation for the total energy of the system. First it adds the contribution to idle CPUs into the energy, second it mixes util_avg with util_est values. util_avg contains the near history for a CPU usage, it doesn't tell at all what the current utilization is. A system that has been quite busy in the near past will hold a very high energy and then a high margin preventing any task migration to a lower capacity CPU, wasting energy. It even creates a negative feedback loop: by holding the tasks on a less efficient CPU, the margin contributes in keeping the energy high. 2. The margin handicaps small tasks: On a system where the workload is composed mostly of small tasks (which is often the case on Android), the overall energy will be high enough to create a margin none of those tasks can cross. On a Pixel4, a small utilization of 5% on all the CPUs creates a global estimated energy of 140 joules, as per the Energy Model declaration of that same device. This means, after applying the 6% margin that any migration must save more than 8 joules to happen. No task with a utilization lower than 40 would then be able to migrate away from the biggest CPU of the system. The 6% of the overall system energy was brought by the following patch: ( |

sched/fair: Remove task_util from effective utilization in feec()
The energy estimation in find_energy_efficient_cpu() (feec()) relies on
the computation of the effective utilization for each CPU of a perf domain
(PD). This effective utilization is then used as an estimation of the busy
time for this pd. The function effective_cpu_util() which gives this value,
scales the utilization relative to IRQ pressure on the CPU to take into
account that the IRQ time is hidden from the task clock. The IRQ scaling is
as follow:
effective_cpu_util = irq + (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * util
Where util is the sum of CFS/RT/DL utilization, cpu_cap the capacity of
the CPU and irq the IRQ avg time.
If now we take as an example a task placement which doesn't raise the OPP
on the candidate CPU, we can write the energy delta as:
delta = OPPcost/cpu_cap * (effective_cpu_util(cpu_util + task_util) -
effective_cpu_util(cpu_util))
= OPPcost/cpu_cap * (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * task_util
We end-up with an energy delta depending on the IRQ avg time, which is a
problem: first the time spent on IRQs by a CPU has no effect on the
additional energy that would be consumed by a task. Second, we don't want
to favour a CPU with a higher IRQ avg time value.
Nonetheless, we need to take the IRQ avg time into account. If a task
placement raises the PD's frequency, it will increase the energy cost for
the entire time where the CPU is busy. A solution is to only use
effective_cpu_util() with the CPU contribution part. The task contribution
is added separately and scaled according to prev_cpu's IRQ time.
No change for the FREQUENCY_UTIL component of the energy estimation. We
still want to get the actual frequency that would be selected after the
task placement.

sched/fair: Use the same cpumask per-PD throughout find_energy_efficient_cpu()
The Perf Domain (PD) cpumask (struct em_perf_domain.cpus) stays invariant after Energy Model creation, i.e. it is not updated after CPU hotplug operations. That's why the PD mask is used in conjunction with the cpu_online_mask (or Sched Domain cpumask). Thereby the cpu_online_mask is fetched multiple times (in compute_energy()) during a run-queue selection for a task. cpu_online_mask may change during this time which can lead to wrong energy calculations. To be able to avoid this, use the select_rq_mask per-cpu cpumask to create a cpumask out of PD cpumask and cpu_online_mask and pass it through the function calls of the EAS run-queue selection path. The PD cpumask for max_spare_cap_cpu/compute_prev_delta selection (find_energy_efficient_cpu()) is now ANDed not only with the SD mask but also with the cpu_online_mask. This is fine since this cpumask has to be in syc with the one used for energy computation (compute_energy()). An exclusive cpuset setup with at least one asymmetric CPU capacity island (hence the additional AND with the SD cpumask) is the obvious exception here.

sched, drivers: Remove max param from effective_cpu_util()/sched_cpu_util()
effective_cpu_util() already has a `int cpu' parameter which allows to retrieve the CPU capacity scale factor (or maximum CPU capacity) inside this function via an arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu). A lot of code calling effective_cpu_util() (or the shim sched_cpu_util()) needs the maximum CPU capacity, i.e. it will call arch_scale_cpu_capacity() already. But not having to pass it into effective_cpu_util() will make the EAS wake-up code easier, especially when the maximum CPU capacity reduced by the thermal pressure is passed through the EAS wake-up functions. Due to the asymmetric CPU capacity support of arm/arm64 architectures, arch_scale_cpu_capacity(int cpu) is a per-CPU variable read access via per_cpu(cpu_scale, cpu) on such a system. On all other architectures it is a a compile-time constant (SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE).

sched/fair: Decay task PELT values during wakeup migration
Before being migrated to a new CPU, a task sees its PELT values synchronized with rq last_update_time. Once done, that same task will also have its sched_avg last_update_time reset. This means the time between the migration and the last clock update will not be accounted for in util_avg and a discontinuity will appear. This issue is amplified by the PELT clock scaling. It takes currently one tick after the CPU being idle to let clock_pelt catching up clock_task. This is especially problematic for asymmetric CPU capacity systems which need stable util_avg signals for task placement and energy estimation. Ideally, this problem would be solved by updating the runqueue clocks before the migration. But that would require taking the runqueue lock which is quite expensive [1]. Instead estimate the missing time and update the task util_avg with that value. To that end, we need sched_clock_cpu() but it is a costly function. Limit the usage to the case where the source CPU is idle as we know this is when the clock is having the biggest risk of being outdated. See comment in migrate_se_pelt_lag() for more details about how the PELT value is estimated. Notice though this estimation doesn't take into account IRQ and Paravirt time.

Introducing macro helpers u64_u32_{store,load}() to factorize lockless
accesses to u64 variables for 32-bits architectures.
Users are for now cfs_rq.min_vruntime and sched_avg.last_update_time. To
accommodate the later where the copy lies outside of the structure
(cfs_rq.last_udpate_time_copy instead of sched_avg.last_update_time_copy),
use the _copy() version of those helpers.
Those new helpers encapsulate smp_rmb() and smp_wmb() synchronization and
therefore, have a small penalty for 32-bits machines in set_task_rq_fair()
and init_cfs_rq().

sched/fair: Introduce SIS_UTIL to search idle CPU based on sum of util_avg
[Problem Statement]
select_idle_cpu() might spend too much time searching for an idle CPU,
when the system is overloaded.
The following histogram is the time spent in select_idle_cpu(),
when running 224 instances of netperf on a system with 112 CPUs
per LLC domain:

The time spent in select_idle_cpu() is visible to netperf and might have a negative
impact.
[Symptom analysis]
The patch [1] from Mel Gorman has been applied to track the efficiency
of select_idle_sibling. Copy the indicators here:
SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%):
A ratio expressed as a percentage of runqueues scanned versus
idle CPUs found. A 100% efficiency indicates that the target,
prev or recent CPU of a task was idle at wakeup. The lower the
efficiency, the more runqueues were scanned before an idle CPU
was found.
SIS Domain Search Efficiency(dom_eff%):
Similar, except only for the slower SIS
patch.
SIS Fast Success Rate(fast_rate%):
Percentage of SIS that used target, prev or
recent CPUs.
SIS Success rate(success_rate%):
Percentage of scans that found an idle CPU.
The test is based on Aubrey's schedtests tool, including netperf, hackbench,
schbench and tbench.

According to the test above, if the system becomes busy, the
SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%) drops significantly. Although some
benchmarks would finally find an idle CPU(success_rate% = 100%), it is
doubtful whether it is worth it to search the whole LLC domain.
[Proposal]
It would be ideal to have a crystal ball to answer this question:
How many CPUs must a wakeup path walk down, before it can find an idle
CPU? Many potential metrics could be used to predict the number.
One candidate is the sum of util_avg in this LLC domain. The benefit
of choosing util_avg is that it is a metric of accumulated historic
activity, which seems to be smoother than instantaneous metrics
(such as rq->nr_running). Besides, choosing the sum of util_avg
would help predict the load of the LLC domain more precisely, because
SIS_PROP uses one CPU's idle time to estimate the total LLC domain idle
time.
In summary, the lower the util_avg is, the more select_idle_cpu()
should scan for idle CPU, and vice versa. When the sum of util_avg
in this LLC domain hits 85% or above, the scan stops. The reason to
choose 85% as the threshold is that this is the imbalance_pct(117)
when a LLC sched group is overloaded.
Introduce the quadratic function:
y = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - p * x^2
and y'= y / SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
x is the ratio of sum_util compared to the CPU capacity:
x = sum_util / (llc_weight * SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE)
y' is the ratio of CPUs to be scanned in the LLC domain,
and the number of CPUs to scan is calculated by:
nr_scan = llc_weight * y'
Choosing quadratic function is because:
[1] Compared to the linear function, it scans more aggressively when the
sum_util is low.
[2] Compared to the exponential function, it is easier to calculate.
[3] It seems that there is no accurate mapping between the sum of util_avg
and the number of CPUs to be scanned. Use heuristic scan for now.
For a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util% 0 5 15 25 35 45 55 65 75 85 86 ...
scan_nr 112 111 108 102 93 81 65 47 25 1 0 ...
For a platform with 16 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util% 0 5 15 25 35 45 55 65 75 85 86 ...
scan_nr 16 15 15 14 13 11 9 6 3 0 0 ...
Furthermore, to minimize the overhead of calculating the metrics in
select_idle_cpu(), borrow the statistics from periodic load balance.
As mentioned by Abel, on a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the
sum_util calculated by periodic load balance after 112 ms would
decay to about 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.7 = 8.75%, thus bringing a delay
in reflecting the latest utilization. But it is a trade-off.
Checking the util_avg in newidle load balance would be more frequent,
but it brings overhead - multiple CPUs write/read the per-LLC shared
variable and introduces cache contention. Tim also mentioned that,
it is allowed to be non-optimal in terms of scheduling for the
short-term variations, but if there is a long-term trend in the load
behavior, the scheduler can adjust for that.
When SIS_UTIL is enabled, the select_idle_cpu() uses the nr_scan
calculated by SIS_UTIL instead of the one from SIS_PROP. As Peter and
Mel suggested, SIS_UTIL should be enabled by default.
This patch is based on the util_avg, which is very sensitive to the
CPU frequency invariance. There is an issue that, when the max frequency
has been clamp, the util_avg would decay insanely fast when
the CPU is idle. Commit

sched: only perform capability check on privileged operation
sched_setattr(2) issues via kernel/sched/core.c:__sched_setscheduler()
a CAP_SYS_NICE audit event unconditionally, even when the requested
operation does not require that capability / is unprivileged, i.e. for
reducing niceness.
This is relevant in connection with SELinux, where a capability check
results in a policy decision and by default a denial message on
insufficient permission is issued.
It can lead to three undesired cases:
1. A denial message is generated, even in case the operation was an
unprivileged one and thus the syscall succeeded, creating noise.
2. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to ignore
those denial messages, hiding future syscalls, where the task
performs an actual privileged operation, leading to hidden limited
functionality of that task.
3. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to allow
the task the capability CAP_SYS_NICE, while it does not need it,
violating the principle of least privilege.
Conduct privilged/unprivileged categorization first and perform a
capable test (and at most once) only if needed.

rcu-tasks: Eliminate RCU Tasks Trace IPIs to online CPUs
Currently, the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period kthread IPIs each online CPU using smp_call_function_single() in order to track any tasks currently in RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections during which the corresponding task has neither blocked nor been preempted. These IPIs are annoying and are also not strictly necessary because any task that blocks or is preempted within its current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section will be tracked on one of the per-CPU rcu_tasks_percpu structure's ->rtp_blkd_tasks list. So the only time that this is a problem is if one of the CPUs runs through a long-duration RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section without a context switch. Note that the task_call_func() function cannot help here because there is no safe way to identify the target task. Of course, the task_call_func() function will be very useful later, when processing the list of tasks, but it needs to know the task. This commit therefore creates a cpu_curr_snapshot() function that returns a pointer the task_struct structure of some task that happened to be running on the specified CPU more or less during the time that the cpu_curr_snapshot() function was executing. If there was no context switch during this time, this function will return a pointer to the task_struct structure of the task that was running throughout. If there was a context switch, then the outgoing task will be taken care of by RCU's context-switch hook, and the incoming task was either already taken care during some previous context switch, or it is not currently within an RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section. And in this latter case, the grace period already started, so there is no need to wait on this task. This new cpu_curr_snapshot() function is invoked on each CPU early in the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period processing, and the resulting tasks are queued for later quiescent-state inspection.

sched: Allow newidle balancing to bail out of load_balance
While doing newidle load balancing, it is possible for new tasks to arrive, such as with pending wakeups. newidle_balance() already accounts for this by exiting the sched_domain load_balance() iteration if it detects these cases. This is very important for minimizing wakeup latency. However, if we are already in load_balance(), we may stay there for a while before returning back to newidle_balance(). This is most exacerbated if we enter a 'goto redo' loop in the LBF_ALL_PINNED case. A very straightforward workaround to this is to adjust should_we_balance() to bail out if we're doing a CPU_NEWLY_IDLE balance and new tasks are detected. This was tested with the following reproduction: - two threads that take turns sleeping and waking each other up are affined to two cores - a large number of threads with 100% utilization are pinned to all other cores Without this patch, wakeup latency was ~120us for the pair of threads, almost entirely spent in load_balance(). With this patch, wakeup latency is ~6us.

sched/fair: Consider CPU affinity when allowing NUMA imbalance in find_idlest_group()
In the case of systems containing multiple LLCs per socket, like AMD Zen systems, users want to spread bandwidth hungry applications across multiple LLCs. Stream is one such representative workload where the best performance is obtained by limiting one stream thread per LLC. To ensure this, users are known to pin the tasks to a specify a subset of the CPUs consisting of one CPU per LLC while running such bandwidth hungry tasks. Suppose we kickstart a multi-threaded task like stream with 8 threads using taskset or numactl to run on a subset of CPUs on a 2 socket Zen3 server where each socket contains 128 CPUs (0-63,128-191 in one socket, 64-127,192-255 in another socket) Eg: numactl -C 0,16,32,48,64,80,96,112 ./stream8 Here each CPU in the list is from a different LLC and 4 of those LLCs are on one socket, while the other 4 are on another socket. Ideally we would prefer that each stream thread runs on a different CPU from the allowed list of CPUs. However, the current heuristics in find_idlest_group() do not allow this during the initial placement. Suppose the first socket (0-63,128-191) is our local group from which we are kickstarting the stream tasks. The first four stream threads will be placed in this socket. When it comes to placing the 5th thread, all the allowed CPUs are from the local group (0,16,32,48) would have been taken. However, the current scheduler code simply checks if the number of tasks in the local group is fewer than the allowed numa-imbalance threshold. This threshold was previously 25% of the NUMA domain span (in this case threshold = 32) but after the v6 of Mel's patchset "Adjust NUMA imbalance for multiple LLCs", got merged in sched-tip, Commit: |

sched/numa: Adjust imb_numa_nr to a better approximation of memory channels
For a single LLC per node, a NUMA imbalance is allowed up until 25% of CPUs sharing a node could be active. One intent of the cut-off is to avoid an imbalance of memory channels but there is no topological information based on active memory channels. Furthermore, there can be differences between nodes depending on the number of populated DIMMs. A cut-off of 25% was arbitrary but generally worked. It does have a severe corner cases though when an parallel workload is using 25% of all available CPUs over-saturates memory channels. This can happen due to the initial forking of tasks that get pulled more to one node after early wakeups (e.g. a barrier synchronisation) that is not quickly corrected by the load balancer. The LB may fail to act quickly as the parallel tasks are considered to be poor migrate candidates due to locality or cache hotness. On a range of modern Intel CPUs, 12.5% appears to be a better cut-off assuming all memory channels are populated and is used as the new cut-off point. A minimum of 1 is specified to allow a communicating pair to remain local even for CPUs with low numbers of cores. For modern AMDs, there are multiple LLCs and are not affected.

sched/numa: Apply imbalance limitations consistently
The imbalance limitations are applied inconsistently at fork time and at runtime. At fork, a new task can remain local until there are too many running tasks even if the degree of imbalance is larger than NUMA_IMBALANCE_MIN which is different to runtime. Secondly, the imbalance figure used during load balancing is different to the one used at NUMA placement. Load balancing uses the number of tasks that must move to restore imbalance where as NUMA balancing uses the total imbalance. In combination, it is possible for a parallel workload that uses a small number of CPUs without applying scheduler policies to have very variable run-to-run performance.

sched/numa: Do not swap tasks between nodes when spare capacity is available
If a destination node has spare capacity but there is an imbalance then two tasks are selected for swapping. If the tasks have no numa group or are within the same NUMA group, it's simply shuffling tasks around without having any impact on the compute imbalance. Instead, it's just punishing one task to help another.

sched/numa: Initialise numa_migrate_retry
On clone, numa_migrate_retry is inherited from the parent which means that the first NUMA placement of a task is non-deterministic. This affects when load balancing recognises numa tasks and whether to migrate "regular", "remote" or "all" tasks between NUMA scheduler domains.

sched: Fix balance_push() vs __sched_setscheduler()
The purpose of balance_push() is to act as a filter on task selection
in the case of CPU hotplug, specifically when taking the CPU out.
It does this by (ab)using the balance callback infrastructure, with
the express purpose of keeping all the unlikely/odd cases in a single
place.
In order to serve its purpose, the balance_push_callback needs to be
(exclusively) on the callback list at all times (noting that the
callback always places itself back on the list the moment it runs,
also noting that when the CPU goes down, regular balancing concerns
are moot, so ignoring them is fine).
And here-in lies the problem, __sched_setscheduler()'s use of
splice_balance_callbacks() takes the callbacks off the list across a
lock-break, making it possible for, an interleaving, __schedule() to
see an empty list and not get filtered.

psi: dont alloc memory for psi by default
Memory about struct psi_group is allocated by default for each cgroup even if psi_disabled is true, in this case, these allocated memory is waste, so alloc memory for struct psi_group only when psi_disabled is false.

While looking at the ptrace problems with PREEMPT_RT and the problems
of Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite I identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own and move make resolving the other problems much simpler. The biggest issue is the habbit of the ptrace code to change task->__state from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up the tracee. No other code in the kernel does that and it is straight forward to update signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary. Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state. The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake ups and become an ordinary stop state. The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers for a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped in the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved register values of a task. There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found while looking at these issues. One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit |
