371bf42732 sched/rt: Add rt_rq utilization tracking
schedutil governor relies on cfs_rq's util_avg to choose the OPP when CFS
tasks are running. When the CPU is overloaded by CFS and RT tasks, CFS tasks
are preempted by RT tasks and in this case util_avg reflects the remaining
capacity but not what CFS want to use. In such case, schedutil can select a
lower OPP whereas the CPU is overloaded. In order to have a more accurate
view of the utilization of the CPU, we track the utilization of RT tasks.
Only util_avg is correctly tracked but not load_avg and runnable_load_avg
which are useless for rt_rq.

rt_rq uses rq_clock_task and cfs_rq uses cfs_rq_clock_task but they are
the same at the root group level, so the PELT windows of the util_sum are
aligned.

c079629862 sched/pelt: Move PELT related code in a dedicated file
We want to track rt_rq's utilization as a part of the estimation of the
whole rq's utilization. This is necessary because rt tasks can steal
utilization to cfs tasks and make them lighter than they are.
As we want to use the same load tracking mecanism for both and prevent
useless dependency between cfs and rt code, PELT code is moved in a
dedicated file.

8fe5c5a937 sched/fair: Fix util_avg of new tasks for asymmetric systems
When a new task wakes-up for the first time, its initial utilization
is set to half of the spare capacity of its CPU. The current
implementation of post_init_entity_util_avg() uses SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
directly as a capacity reference. As a result, on a big.LITTLE system, a
new task waking up on an idle little CPU will be given ~512 of util_avg,
even if the CPU's capacity is significantly less than that.

Fix this by computing the spare capacity with arch_scale_cpu_capacity().

Furthermore, Oleg noticed that the whole scheduler TASK_PARKED
handling is buggered because the TASK_DEAD thing is done with
preemption disabled, the current code can still complete early on
preemption :/

So basically revert that earlier fix and go with a variant of the
alternative mentioned in the commit. Promote TASK_PARKED to special
state to avoid the store-store issue on task->state leading to the
WARN in kthread_unpark() -> __kthread_bind().

But in addition, add wait_task_inactive() to kthread_park() to ensure
the task really is PARKED when we return from kthread_park(). This
avoids the whole kthread still gets migrated nonsense -- although it
would be really good to get this done differently.

3482d98bbc sched/util_est: Fix util_est_dequeue() for throttled cfs_rq
When a cfs_rq is throttled, parent cfs_rq->nr_running is decreased and
everything happens at cfs_rq level. Currently util_est stays unchanged
in such case and it keeps accounting the utilization of throttled tasks.
This can somewhat make sense as we don't dequeue tasks but only throttled
cfs_rq.

If a task of another group is enqueued/dequeued and root cfs_rq becomes
idle during the dequeue, util_est will be cleared whereas it was
accounting util_est of throttled tasks before. So the behavior of util_est
is not always the same regarding throttled tasks and depends of side
activity. Furthermore, util_est will not be updated when the cfs_rq is
unthrottled as everything happens at cfs_rq level. Main results is that
util_est will stay null whereas we now have running tasks. We have to wait
for the next dequeue/enqueue of the previously throttled tasks to get an
up to date util_est.

Remove the assumption that cfs_rq's estimated utilization of a CPU is 0
if there is no running task so the util_est of a task remains until the
latter is dequeued even if its cfs_rq has been throttled.

f1d1be8aee sched/fair: Advance global expiration when period timer is restarted
When period gets restarted after some idle time, start_cfs_bandwidth()
doesn't update the expiration information, expire_cfs_rq_runtime() will
see cfs_rq->runtime_expires smaller than rq clock and go to the clock
drift logic, wasting needless CPU cycles on the scheduler hot path.

Update the global expiration in start_cfs_bandwidth() to avoid frequent
expire_cfs_rq_runtime() calls once a new period begins.

512ac999d2 sched/fair: Fix bandwidth timer clock drift condition
I noticed that cgroup task groups constantly get throttled even
if they have low CPU usage, this causes some jitters on the response
time to some of our business containers when enabling CPU quotas.

It's very simple to reproduce:

  mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test
  cd /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test
  echo 100000 > cpu.cfs_quota_us
  echo $$ > tasks

then repeat:

  cat cpu.stat | grep nr_throttled  # nr_throttled will increase steadily

After some analysis, we found that cfs_rq::runtime_remaining will
be cleared by expire_cfs_rq_runtime() due to two equal but stale
"cfs_{b|q}->runtime_expires" after period timer is re-armed.

The current condition to judge clock drift in expire_cfs_rq_runtime()
is wrong, the two runtime_expires are actually the same when clock
drift happens, so this condtion can never hit. The orginal design was
correctly done by this commit:

  a9cf55b286 ("sched: Expire invalid runtime")

... but was changed to be the current implementation due to its locking bug.

This patch introduces another way, it adds a new field in both structures
cfs_rq and cfs_bandwidth to record the expiration update sequence, and
uses them to figure out if clock drift happens (true if they are equal).

296b2ffe7f sched/rt: Fix call to cpufreq_update_util()
With commit:

  8f111bc357 ("cpufreq/schedutil: Rewrite CPUFREQ_RT support")

the schedutil governor uses rq->rt.rt_nr_running to detect whether an
RT task is currently running on the CPU and to set frequency to max
if necessary.

cpufreq_update_util() is called in enqueue/dequeue_top_rt_rq() but
rq->rt.rt_nr_running has not been updated yet when dequeue_top_rt_rq() is
called so schedutil still considers that an RT task is running when the
last task is dequeued. The update of rq->rt.rt_nr_running happens later
in dequeue_rt_stack().

In fact, we can take advantage of the sequence that the dequeue then
re-enqueue rt entities when a rt task is enqueued or dequeued;
As a result enqueue_top_rt_rq() is always called when a task is
enqueued or dequeued and also when groups are throttled or unthrottled.
The only place that not use enqueue_top_rt_rq() is when root rt_rq is
throttled.

d9c0ffcabd sched/nohz: Skip remote tick on idle task entirely
Some people have reported that the warning in sched_tick_remote()

pressure:

This happens when the remote tick applies on an idle task. Usually the
idle_cpu() check avoids that, but it is performed before we lock the
runqueue and it is therefore racy. It was intended to be that way in
order to prevent from useless runqueue locks since idle task tick
callback is a no-op.

Now if the racy check slips out of our hands and we end up remotely
ticking an idle task, the empty task_tick_idle() is harmless. Still
it won't pass the WARN_ON_ONCE() test that ensures rq_clock_task() is
not too far from curr->se.exec_start because update_curr_idle() doesn't
update the exec_start value like other scheduler policies. Hence the
reported false positive.

So let's have another check, while the rq is locked, to make sure we
don't remote tick on an idle task. The lockless idle_cpu() still applies
to avoid unecessary rq lock contention.

0abf17bc77 sched/swait: Switch to full exclusive mode
Linus noted that swait basically implements exclusive mode -- because
swake_up() only wakes a single waiter. And because of that it should
take care to properly deal with the interruptible case.

In short, the problem is that swake_up() can race with a signal. In
this this case it is possible the swake_up() 'wakes' the waiter that
is already on the way out because it just got a signal and the wakeup
gets lost.

The normal wait code is very careful and avoids this situation, make
sure we do too.

Copy the exact exclusive semantics from wait.

0ed557aa81 sched/core / kcov: avoid kcov_area during task switch
During a context switch, we first switch_mm() to the next task's mm,
then switch_to() that new task.  This means that vmalloc'd regions which
had previously been faulted in can transiently disappear in the context
of the prev task.

Functions instrumented by KCOV may try to access a vmalloc'd kcov_area
during this window, and as the fault handling code is instrumented, this
results in a recursive fault.

We must avoid accessing any kcov_area during this window.  We can do so
with a new flag in kcov_mode, set prior to switching the mm, and cleared
once the new task is live.  Since task_struct::kcov_mode isn't always a
specific enum kcov_mode value, this is made an unsigned int.

The manipulation is hidden behind kcov_{prepare,finish}_switch() helpers,
which are empty for !CONFIG_KCOV kernels.

The code uses macros because I can't use static inline functions without a
circular include dependency between <linux/sched.h> and <linux/kcov.h>,
since the definition of task_struct uses things defined in <linux/kcov.h>

The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:

as well as handling cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

dropped, since they're redundant.

6da2ec5605 treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array()
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Mathieu Desnoyers
d7822b1e24 rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call
Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace
memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two
purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the
current CPU number value from user-space.

* Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics)

Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on
per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations.

The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started
by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of
critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a
few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other
architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path.

Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases.

Test hardware:

arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core
x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading

The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread.

* Per-CPU statistic counter increment

                getcpu+atomic (ns/op)    rseq (ns/op)    speedup
arm32:                344.0                 31.4          11.0
x86-64:                15.3                  2.0           7.7

* LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer
             per-cpu buffer

                getcpu+atomic (ns/op)    rseq (ns/op)    speedup
arm32:               2502.0                 2250.0         1.1
x86-64:               117.4                   98.0         1.2

* liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word

                getcpu+atomic (ns/op)    rseq (ns/op)    speedup
arm32:                751.0                 128.5          5.8
x86-64:                53.4                  28.6          1.9

* jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq

Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on
rseq 2016 implementation):

The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and
the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%.

* Reading the current CPU number

Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is
running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the
cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done
by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the
current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler
updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory
area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from
memory.

Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and
user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read
the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over
alternative approaches:

- 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc
- 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso
  executing a "lsl" instruction,
- 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction,
- Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline
  assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable
  sequences.
- The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared
  between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the
  case for the lsl-based x86 vdso.

On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment
selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs
similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is
not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already
using the gs segment selector for other purposes.

Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number:

ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l)
Machine model: Cubietruck
- Baseline (empty loop):                                    8.4 ns
- Read CPU from rseq cpu_id:                               16.7 ns

Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to
expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the
scheduler:

Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @
2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy
saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1
kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig,
restartable sequences series applied.

* CONFIG_RSEQ=n

avg.:      41.37 s
std.dev.:   0.36 s

* CONFIG_RSEQ=y

avg.:      40.46 s
std.dev.:   0.33 s

- Size

On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is
567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.

3c89adb0d1 Power management updates for 4.18-rc1
These include a significant update of the generic power domains (genpd)
 and Operating Performance Points (OPP) frameworks, mostly related to
 the introduction of power domain performance levels, cpufreq updates
 (new driver for Qualcomm Kryo processors, updates of the existing
 drivers, some core fixes, schedutil governor improvements), PCI power
 management fixes, ACPI workaround for EC-based wakeup events handling
 on resume from suspend-to-idle, and major updates of the turbostat
 and pm-graph utilities.
 
 Specifics:
 
  - Introduce power domain performance levels into the the generic
    power domains (genpd) and Operating Performance Points (OPP)
    frameworks (Viresh Kumar, Rajendra Nayak, Dan Carpenter).
 
  - Fix two issues in the runtime PM framework related to the
    initialization and removal of devices using device links (Ulf
    Hansson).
 
  - Clean up the initialization of drivers for devices in PM domains

  - Fix a cpufreq core issue related to the policy sysfs interface
    causing CPU online to fail for CPUs sharing one cpufreq policy in
    some situations (Tao Wang).
 
  - Make it possible to use platform-specific suspend/resume hooks
    in the cpufreq-dt driver and make the Armada 37xx DVFS use that
    feature (Viresh Kumar, Miquel Raynal).
 
  - Optimize policy transition notifications in cpufreq (Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Improve the iowait boost mechanism in the schedutil cpufreq
    governor (Patrick Bellasi).

    Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Add a new cpufreq driver for Qualcomm Kryo (Ilia Lin).
 
  - Fix and clean up some cpufreq drivers (Colin Ian King, Dmitry
    Osipenko, Doug Smythies, Luc Van Oostenryck, Simon Horman,
    Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Fix the handling of PCI devices with the DPM_SMART_SUSPEND flag
    set and update stale comments in the PCI core PM code (Rafael
    Wysocki).
 
  - Work around an issue related to the handling of EC-based wakeup
    events in the ACPI PM core during resume from suspend-to-idle if
    the EC has been put into the low-power mode (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Improve the handling of wakeup source objects in the PM core (Doug
    Berger, Mahendran Ganesh, Rafael Wysocki).

ecda2b66e2 sched/deadline: Fix missing clock update

This happens because inactive_task_timer() calls sub_running_bw() (if
TASK_DEAD and non_contending) that might trigger a schedutil update,
which might access the clock. Clock is however currently updated only
later in inactive_task_timer() function.

Fix the problem by updating the clock right after task_rq_lock().

7af443ee16 sched/core: Require cpu_active() in select_task_rq(), for user tasks
select_task_rq() is used in a few paths to select the CPU upon which a
thread should be run - for example it is used by try_to_wake_up() & by
fork or exec balancing. As-is it allows use of any online CPU that is
present in the task's cpus_allowed mask.

This presents a problem because there is a period whilst CPUs are
brought online where a CPU is marked online, but is not yet fully
initialized - ie. the period where CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE <= state <
CPUHP_ONLINE. Usually we don't run any user tasks during this window,
but there are corner cases where this can happen. An example observed
is:

  - Some user task A, running on CPU X, forks to create task B.

  - sched_fork() calls __set_task_cpu() with cpu=X, setting task B's
    task_struct::cpu field to X.

  - CPU X is offlined.

  - Task A, currently somewhere between the __set_task_cpu() in
    copy_process() and the call to wake_up_new_task(), is migrated to
    CPU Y by migrate_tasks() when CPU X is offlined.

  - CPU X is onlined, but still in the CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE state. The
    scheduler is now active on CPU X, but there are no user tasks on
    the runqueue.

  - Task A runs on CPU Y & reaches wake_up_new_task(). This calls
    select_task_rq() with cpu=X, taken from task B's task_struct,
    and select_task_rq() allows CPU X to be returned.

  - Task A enqueues task B on CPU X's runqueue, via activate_task() &
    enqueue_task().

  - CPU X now has a user task on its runqueue before it has reached the
    CPUHP_ONLINE state.

In most cases, the user tasks that schedule on the newly onlined CPU
have no idea that anything went wrong, but one case observed to be
problematic is if the task goes on to invoke the sched_setaffinity
syscall. The newly onlined CPU reaches the CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE state
before the CPU that brought it online calls stop_machine_unpark(). This
means that for a portion of the window of time between
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE & CPUHP_ONLINE the newly onlined CPU's struct
cpu_stopper has its enabled field set to false. If a user thread is
executed on the CPU during this window and it invokes sched_setaffinity
with a CPU mask that does not include the CPU it's running on, then when
__set_cpus_allowed_ptr() calls stop_one_cpu() intending to invoke
migration_cpu_stop() and perform the actual migration away from the CPU
it will simply return -ENOENT rather than calling migration_cpu_stop().
We then return from the sched_setaffinity syscall back to the user task
that is now running on a CPU which it just asked not to run on, and
which is not present in its cpus_allowed mask.

This patch resolves the problem by having select_task_rq() enforce that
user tasks run on CPUs that are active - the same requirement that
select_fallback_rq() already enforces. This should ensure that newly
onlined CPUs reach the CPUHP_AP_ACTIVE state before being able to
schedule user tasks, and also implies that bringup_wait_for_ap() will
have called stop_machine_unpark() which resolves the sched_setaffinity
issue above.

I haven't yet investigated them, but it may be of interest to review
whether any of the actions performed by hotplug states between
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE & CPUHP_AP_ACTIVE could have similar unintended
effects on user tasks that might schedule before they are reached, which
might widen the scope of the problem from just affecting the behaviour
of sched_setaffinity.

175f0e25ab sched/core: Fix rules for running on online && !active CPUs
As already enforced by the WARN() in __set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), the rules
for running on an online && !active CPU are stricter than just being a
kthread, you need to be a per-cpu kthread.

If you're not strictly per-CPU, you have better CPUs to run on and
don't need the partially booted one to get your work done.

The exception is to allow smpboot threads to bootstrap the CPU itself
and get kernel 'services' initialized before we allow userspace on it.

2539fc82aa sched/fair: Update util_est before updating schedutil
When a task is enqueued the estimated utilization of a CPU is updated
to better support the selection of the required frequency.

However, schedutil is (implicitly) updated by update_load_avg() which
always happens before util_est_{en,de}queue(), thus potentially
introducing a latency between estimated utilization updates and
frequency selections.

Let's update util_est at the beginning of enqueue_task_fair(),
which will ensure that all schedutil updates will see the most
updated estimated utilization value for a CPU.

8ecf04e112 sched/cpufreq: Modify aggregate utilization to always include blocked FAIR utilization
Since the refactoring introduced by:

   commit 8f111bc357 ("cpufreq/schedutil: Rewrite CPUFREQ_RT support")

we aggregate FAIR utilization only if this class has runnable tasks.

This was mainly due to avoid the risk to stay on an high frequency just
because of the blocked utilization of a CPU not being properly decayed
while the CPU was idle.

However, since:

   commit 31e77c93e4 ("sched/fair: Update blocked load when newly idle")

the FAIR blocked utilization is properly decayed also for IDLE CPUs.

This allows us to use the FAIR blocked utilization as a safe mechanism
to gracefully reduce the frequency only if no FAIR tasks show up on a
CPU for a reasonable period of time.

Moreover, we also reduce the frequency drops of CPUs running periodic
tasks which, depending on the task periodicity and the time required
for a frequency switch, was increasing the chances to introduce some
undesirable performance variations.

bf5015a50f sched/topology: Clarify root domain(s) debug string
When scheduler debug is enabled, building scheduling domains outputs
information about how the domains are laid out and to which root domain
each CPU (or sets of CPUs) belongs, e.g.:

 CPU0 attaching sched-domain(s):
  domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
   groups: 0:{ span=0 }, 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }
 CPU1 attaching sched-domain(s):
  domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
   groups: 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }, 0:{ span=0 }

 [...]

 span: 0-5 (max cpu_capacity = 1024)

The fact that latest line refers to CPUs 0-5 root domain doesn't however look
immediately obvious to me: one might wonder why span 0-5 is reported "again".

Make it more clear by adding "root domain" to it, as to end with the
following:

 CPU0 attaching sched-domain(s):
  domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
   groups: 0:{ span=0 }, 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }
 CPU1 attaching sched-domain(s):
  domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
   groups: 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }, 0:{ span=0 }

a61dec7447 cpufreq: schedutil: Avoid missing updates for one-CPU policies
Commit 152db033d7 (schedutil: Allow cpufreq requests to be made
even when kthread kicked) made changes to prevent utilization updates
from being discarded during processing a previous request, but it
left a small window in which that still can happen in the one-CPU
policy case.  Namely, updates coming in after setting work_in_progress
in sugov_update_commit() and clearing it in sugov_work() will still
be dropped due to the work_in_progress check in sugov_update_single().

To close that window, rearrange the code so as to acquire the update
lock around the deferred update branch in sugov_update_single()
and drop the work_in_progress check from it.

152db033d7 schedutil: Allow cpufreq requests to be made even when kthread kicked
Currently there is a chance of a schedutil cpufreq update request to be
dropped if there is a pending update request. This pending request can
be delayed if there is a scheduling delay of the irq_work and the wake
up of the schedutil governor kthread.

A very bad scenario is when a schedutil request was already just made,
such as to reduce the CPU frequency, then a newer request to increase
CPU frequency (even sched deadline urgent frequency increase requests)
can be dropped, even though the rate limits suggest that its Ok to
process a request. This is because of the way the work_in_progress flag
is used.

This patch improves the situation by allowing new requests to happen
even though the old one is still being processed. Note that in this
approach, if an irq_work was already issued, we just update next_freq
and don't bother to queue another request so there's no extra work being
done to make this happen.

fd7d5287fd cpufreq: schedutil: Cleanup and document iowait boost
The iowait boosting code has been recently updated to add a progressive
boosting behavior which allows to be less aggressive in boosting tasks
doing only sporadic IO operations, thus being more energy efficient for
example on mobile platforms.

The current code is now however a bit convoluted. Some functionalities
(e.g. iowait boost reset) are replicated in different paths and their
documentation is slightly misaligned.

Let's cleanup the code by consolidating all the IO wait boosting related
functionality within within few dedicated functions and better define
their role:

- sugov_iowait_boost: set/increase the IO wait boost of a CPU
- sugov_iowait_apply: apply/reduce the IO wait boost of a CPU

Both these two function are used at every sugov update and they make
use of a unified IO wait boost reset policy provided by:

- sugov_iowait_reset: reset/disable the IO wait boost of a CPU
     if a CPU is not updated for more then one tick

This makes possible a cleaner and more self-contained design for the IO
wait boosting code since the rest of the sugov update routines, both for
single and shared frequency domains, follow the same template:

   /* Configure IO boost, if required */
   sugov_iowait_boost()

   /* Return here if freq change is in progress or throttled */

   /* Collect and aggregate utilization information */
   sugov_get_util()
   sugov_aggregate_util()

   /*
    * Add IO boost, if currently enabled, on top of the aggregated
    * utilization value
    */
   sugov_iowait_apply()

As a extra bonus, let's also add the documentation for the new
functions and better align the in-code documentation.

295f1a9953 cpufreq: schedutil: Fix iowait boost reset
A more energy efficient update of the IO wait boosting mechanism has
been introduced in:

   commit a5a0809bc5 ("cpufreq: schedutil: Make iowait boost more energy efficient")

where the boost value is expected to be:

 - doubled at each successive wakeup from IO
   staring from the minimum frequency supported by a CPU

 - reset when a CPU is not updated for more then one tick
   by either disabling the IO wait boost or resetting its value to the
   minimum frequency if this new update requires an IO boost.

This approach is supposed to "ignore" boosting for sporadic wakeups from
IO, while still getting the frequency boosted to the maximum to benefit
long sequence of wakeup from IO operations.

However, these assumptions are not always satisfied.
For example, when an IO boosted CPU enters idle for more the one tick
and then wakes up after an IO wait, since in sugov_set_iowait_boost() we
first check the IOWAIT flag, we keep doubling the iowait boost instead
of restarting from the minimum frequency value.

This misbehavior could happen mainly on non-shared frequency domains,
thus defeating the energy efficiency optimization, but it can also
happen on shared frequency domain systems.

Let fix this issue in sugov_set_iowait_boost() by:
 - first check the IO wait boost reset conditions
   to eventually reset the boost value
 - then applying the correct IO boost value
   if required by the caller

ecd2884291 cpufreq: schedutil: Don't set next_freq to UINT_MAX
The schedutil driver sets sg_policy->next_freq to UINT_MAX on certain
occasions to discard the cached value of next freq:
- In sugov_start(), when the schedutil governor is started for a group
  of CPUs.
- And whenever we need to force a freq update before rate-limit
  duration, which happens when:
  - there is an update in cpufreq policy limits.
  - Or when the utilization of DL scheduling class increases.

In return, get_next_freq() doesn't return a cached next_freq value but
recalculates the next frequency instead.

But having special meaning for a particular value of frequency makes the
code less readable and error prone. We recently fixed a bug where the
UINT_MAX value was considered as valid frequency in
sugov_update_single().

All we need is a flag which can be used to discard the value of
sg_policy->next_freq and we already have need_freq_update for that. Lets
reuse it instead of setting next_freq to UINT_MAX.

1b04722c3b Revert "cpufreq: schedutil: Don't restrict kthread to related_cpus unnecessarily"
This reverts commit e2cabe48c2.

Lifting the restriction that the sugov kthread is bound to the
policy->related_cpus for a system with a slow switching cpufreq driver,
which is able to perform DVFS from any cpu (e.g. cpufreq-dt), is not
only not beneficial it also harms Enery-Aware Scheduling (EAS) on
systems with asymmetric cpu capacities (e.g. Arm big.LITTLE).

The sugov kthread which does the update for the little cpus could
potentially run on a big cpu. It could prevent that the big cluster goes
into deeper idle states although all the tasks are running on the little
cluster.

Example: hikey960 w/ 4.16.0-rc6-+
         Arm big.LITTLE with per-cluster DVFS

root@h960:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "^CPU part"

root@h960:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq# cat policy*/related_cpus

  PID CLS RTPRIO PRI PSR COMMAND
  1489 #6      0 140   1 sugov:0
  1490 #6      0 140   0 sugov:4

The sugov kthread sugov:4 responsible for policy4 runs on cpu0. (In this
case both sugov kthreads run on little cpus).

cross policy (cluster) remote callback example:
...
migration/1-14 [001] enqueue_task_fair: this_cpu=1 cpu_of(rq)=5
migration/1-14 [001] sugov_update_shared: this_cpu=1 sg_cpu->cpu=5

  sugov:4-1490 [000] sugov_work: this_cpu=0
                     sg_cpu->sg_policy->policy->related_cpus=4-7
...

The remote callback (this_cpu=1, target_cpu=5) is executed on cpu=0.

(2) w/ the revert:

root@h960:~# ps -eo pid,class,rtprio,pri,psr,comm | awk 'NR == 1 ||

  PID CLS RTPRIO PRI PSR COMMAND
  1491 #6      0 140   2 sugov:0
  1492 #6      0 140   4 sugov:4

The sugov kthread sugov:4 responsible for policy4 runs on cpu4.

cross policy (cluster) remote callback example:
...
migration/1-14 [001] enqueue_task_fair: this_cpu=1 cpu_of(rq)=7
migration/1-14 [001] sugov_update_shared: this_cpu=1 sg_cpu->cpu=7
                     sg_cpu->sg_policy->policy->related_cpus=4-7
  sugov:4-1492 [004] sugov_work: this_cpu=4
                     sg_cpu->sg_policy->policy->related_cpus=4-7
...

The remote callback (this_cpu=1, target_cpu=7) is executed on cpu=4.

Now the sugov kthread executes again on the policy (cluster) for which
the Operating Performance Point (OPP) should be changed.
It avoids the problem that an otherwise idle policy (cluster) is running
schedutil (the sugov kthread) for another one.

943d355d7f sched/core: Distinguish between idle_cpu() calls based on desired effect, introduce available_idle_cpu()
In the following commit:

  247f2f6f3c ("sched/core: Don't schedule threads on pre-empted vCPUs")

... we distinguish between idle_cpu() when the vCPU is not running for
scheduling threads.

However, the idle_cpu() function is used in other places for
actually checking whether the state of the CPU is idle or not.

Hence split the use of that function based on the desired return value,
by introducing the available_idle_cpu() function.

This fixes a (slight) regression in that initial vCPU commit, because
some code paths (like the load-balancer) don't care and shouldn't care
if the vCPU is preempted or not, they just want to know if there's any
tasks on the CPU.

1378447598 sched/numa: Stagger NUMA balancing scan periods for new threads
Threads share an address space and each can change the protections of the
same address space to trap NUMA faults. This is redundant and potentially
counter-productive as any thread doing the update will suffice. Potentially
only one thread is required but that thread may be idle or it may not have
any locality concerns and pick an unsuitable scan rate.

This patch uses independent scan period but they are staggered based on
the number of address space users when the thread is created.  The intent
is that threads will avoid scanning at the same time and have a chance
to adapt their scan rate later if necessary. This reduces the total scan
activity early in the lifetime of the threads.

The different in headline performance across a range of machines and
workloads is marginal but the system CPU usage is reduced as well as overall
scan activity.  The following is the time reported by NAS Parallel Benchmark
using unbound openmp threads and a D size class:

			      4.17.0-rc1             4.17.0-rc1
				 vanilla           stagger-v1r1
	Time bt.D      442.77 (   0.00%)      419.70 (   5.21%)
	Time cg.D      171.90 (   0.00%)      180.85 (  -5.21%)
	Time ep.D       33.10 (   0.00%)       32.90 (   0.60%)
	Time is.D        9.59 (   0.00%)        9.42 (   1.77%)
	Time lu.D      306.75 (   0.00%)      304.65 (   0.68%)
	Time mg.D       54.56 (   0.00%)       52.38 (   4.00%)
	Time sp.D     1020.03 (   0.00%)      903.77 (  11.40%)
	Time ua.D      400.58 (   0.00%)      386.49 (   3.52%)

Note it's not a universal win but we have no prior knowledge of which
thread matters but the number of threads created often exceeds the size
of the node when the threads are not bound. However, there is a reducation
of overall system CPU usage:

				    4.17.0-rc1             4.17.0-rc1
				       vanilla           stagger-v1r1
	sys-time-bt.D         48.78 (   0.00%)       48.22 (   1.15%)
	sys-time-cg.D         25.31 (   0.00%)       26.63 (  -5.22%)
	sys-time-ep.D          1.65 (   0.00%)        0.62 (  62.42%)
	sys-time-is.D         40.05 (   0.00%)       24.45 (  38.95%)
	sys-time-lu.D         37.55 (   0.00%)       29.02 (  22.72%)
	sys-time-mg.D         47.52 (   0.00%)       34.92 (  26.52%)
	sys-time-sp.D        119.01 (   0.00%)      109.05 (   8.37%)
	sys-time-ua.D         51.52 (   0.00%)       45.13 (  12.40%)

NUMA scan activity is also reduced:

	NUMA alloc local               1042828     1342670
	NUMA base PTE updates        140481138    93577468
	NUMA huge PMD updates           272171      180766
	NUMA page range updates      279832690   186129660
	NUMA hint faults               1395972     1193897
	NUMA hint local faults          877925      855053
	NUMA hint local percent             62          71
	NUMA pages migrated           12057909     9158023

Similar observations are made for other thread-intensive workloads. System
CPU usage is lower even though the headline gains in performance tend to be
small. For example, specjbb 2005 shows almost no difference in performance
but scan activity is reduced by a third on a 4-socket box. I didn't find
a workload (thread intensive or otherwise) that suffered badly.
