Traversing an entire package is not only expensive, it also leads to tasks
bouncing all over a partially idle and possible quite large package. Fix
that up by assigning a 'buddy' CPU to try to motivate. Each buddy may try
to motivate that one other CPU, if it's busy, tough, it may then try its
SMT sibling, but that's all this optimization is allowed to cost.
Sibling cache buddies are cross-wired to prevent bouncing.

Separate out the cpuset related handling for CPU/Memory online/offline.
This also helps us exploit the most obvious and basic level of optimization
that any notification mechanism (CPU/Mem online/offline) has to offer us:
"We *know* why we have been invoked. So stop pretending that we are lost,
and do only the necessary amount of processing!".
And while at it, rename scan_for_empty_cpusets() to
scan_cpusets_upon_hotplug(), which is more appropriate considering how
it is restructured.

In the event of CPU hotplug, the kernel modifies the cpusets' cpus_allowed
masks as and when necessary to ensure that the tasks belonging to the cpusets
have some place (online CPUs) to run on. And regular CPU hotplug is
destructive in the sense that the kernel doesn't remember the original cpuset
configurations set by the user, across hotplug operations.
However, suspend/resume (which uses CPU hotplug) is a special case in which
the kernel has the responsibility to restore the system (during resume), to
exactly the same state it was in before suspend.
In order to achieve that, do the following:
1. Don't modify cpusets during suspend/resume. At all.
In particular, don't move the tasks from one cpuset to another, and
don't modify any cpuset's cpus_allowed mask. So, simply ignore cpusets
during the CPU hotplug operations that are carried out in the
suspend/resume path.
2. However, cpusets and sched domains are related. We just want to avoid
altering cpusets alone. So, to keep the sched domains updated, build
a single sched domain (containing all active cpus) during each of the
CPU hotplug operations carried out in s/r path, effectively ignoring
the cpusets' cpus_allowed masks.
(Since userspace is frozen while doing all this, it will go unnoticed.)
3. During the last CPU online operation during resume, build the sched
domains by looking up the (unaltered) cpusets' cpus_allowed masks.
That will bring back the system to the same original state as it was in
before suspend.
Ultimately, this will not only solve the cpuset problem related to suspend
resume (ie., restores the cpusets to exactly what it was before suspend, by
not touching it at all) but also speeds up suspend/resume because we avoid
running cpuset update code for every CPU being offlined/onlined.

sched: Fix fork() error path to not crash
Thanks to Charles Wang for spotting the defects in the current code:
- If we go idle during the sample window -- after sampling, we get a
negative bias because we can negate our own sample.
- If we wake up during the sample window we get a positive bias
because we push the sample to a known active period.
So rewrite the entire nohz load-avg muck once again, now adding
copious documentation to the code.

It does not get processed because sched_domain_level_max is 0 at the
time that setup_relax_domain_level() is run.
Simply accept the value as it is, as we don't know the value of
sched_domain_level_max until sched domain construction is completed.
Fix sched_relax_domain_level in cpuset. The build_sched_domain() routine calls
the set_domain_attribute() routine prior to setting the sd->level, however,
the set_domain_attribute() routine relies on the sd->level to decide whether
idle load balancing will be off/on.

Roland Dreier reported spurious, hard to trigger lockdep warnings
within the scheduler - without any real lockup.
This bit gives us the right clue:

> [89945.640568] [<ffffffff8104c546>] push_rt_task+0xc6/0x290
if you look at that code you'll find the double_lock_balance() in
question is the one in find_lock_lowest_rq() [yay for inlining].
Now find_lock_lowest_rq() has a bug.. it fails to use
double_unlock_balance() in one exit path, if this results in a retry in
push_rt_task() we'll call double_lock_balance() again, at which point
we'll run into said lockdep confusion.

Commit cb83b629b ("sched/numa: Rewrite the CONFIG_NUMA sched
domain support") removed the NODE sched domain and started checking
if the node distance in SLIT table is farther than REMOTE_DISTANCE,
if so, it will lose the load balance chance at exec/fork/wake_affine
points.
But actually, even the node distance is farther than REMOTE_DISTANCE.
Modern CPUs also has QPI like connections, which ensures that memory
access is not too slow between nodes. So the above change in behavior
on NUMA machine causes a performance regression on various benchmarks:
hackbench, tbench, netperf, oltp, etc.
This patch will recover the scheduler behavior to old mode on all my
Intel platforms: NHM EP/EX, WSM EP, SNB EP/EP4S, and thus fixes the
perfromance regressions. (all of them just have 2 kinds distance, 10, 21)

task_tick_rt() has an optimization to only reschedule SCHED_RR tasks
if they were the only element on their rq. However, with cgroups
a SCHED_RR task could be the only element on its per-cgroup rq but
still be competing with other SCHED_RR tasks in its parent's
cgroup. In this case, the SCHED_RR task in the child cgroup would
never yield at the end of its timeslice. If the child cgroup
rt_runtime_us was the same as the parent cgroup rt_runtime_us,
the task in the parent cgroup would starve completely.
Modify task_tick_rt() to check that the task is the only task on its
rq, and that the each of the scheduling entities of its ancestors
is also the only entity on its rq.

SD_OVERLAP exists to allow overlapping groups, overlapping groups
appear in NUMA topologies that aren't fully connected.
The typical result of not fully connected NUMA is that each cpu (or
rather node) will have different spans for a particular distance.
However due to how sched domains are traversed -- only the first cpu
in the mask goes one level up -- the next level only cares about the
spans of the cpus that went up.
Due to this two things were observed to be broken:
- build_overlap_sched_groups() -- since its possible the cpu we're
building the groups for exists in multiple (or all) groups, the
selection criteria of the first group didn't ensure there was a cpu
for which is was true that cpumask_first(span) == cpu. Thus load-
balancing would terminate.
- update_group_power() -- assumed that the cpu span of the first
group of the domain was covered by all groups of the child domain.
The above explains why this isn't true, so deal with it.

Follow up on commit 556061b00 ("sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load[]
calculations") since while that fixed the busy case it regressed the
mostly idle case.
Add a callback from the nohz exit to also age the rq->cpu_load[]
array. This closes the hole where either there was no nohz load
balance pass during the nohz, or there was a 'significant' amount of
idle time between the last nohz balance and the nohz exit.
So we'll update unconditionally from the tick to not insert any
accidental 0 load periods while busy, and we try and catch up from
nohz idle balance and nohz exit. Both these are still prone to missing
a jiffy, but that has always been the case.

Pull user namespace enhancements from Eric Biederman:
"This is a course correction for the user namespace, so that we can
reach an inexpensive, maintainable, and reasonably complete
implementation.
Highlights:
- Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and
code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe.
- Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the
config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable
user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission
checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe.
- All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial
user namespace before they are processed. Removing the need to add
an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared
uids remains the same.
- With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or
better than it is today.
- For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or
operationally with the user namespace enabled.
- The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1
billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code
enabled. This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to
164ns per stat operation).
- (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value.
Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially
anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause
entertaining failures in userspace.
- If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails.
I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I
could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and
handle the case where setuid fails.
- If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which
we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid. The LFS
experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be
better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I
can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we
can't map.
- Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it
safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.
My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core
kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

This reverts commit cb04ff9ac4 ("sched, perf: Use a single

Before this change was introduced, the process switch worked
like this (wrt. to perf event schedule):
schedule (prev, next)
- schedule out all perf events for prev
- switch to next
- schedule in all perf events for current (next)
After the commit, the process switch looks like:
schedule (prev, next)
- schedule out all perf events for prev
- schedule in all perf events for (next)
- switch to next
The problem is, that after we schedule perf events in, the pmu
is enabled and we can receive events even before we make the
switch to next - so "current" still being prev process (event
SAMPLE data are filled based on the value of the "current"
process).
Thats exactly what we see for test__PERF_RECORD test. We receive
SAMPLES with PID of the process that our tracee is scheduled
from.

There's a reported bug with the file type addition / removal handling

It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power
aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending
patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ...
so remove it to make space free for something better.
There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first
and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology
levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a
state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to
master and almost nobody does.
Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it
means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either
under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if
there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of
it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads.
So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea
even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs
on every node of the topology.
There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single
3 state knob:
sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto }
where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things
like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw
exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no
progress on it in the past many months.
Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs
is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at
fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable
state.
Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring
people who care to come forward once again and work on a
coherent replacement.

Some numbers like nr_running and nr_uninterruptible are fundamentally
unsigned since its impossible to have a negative amount of tasks, yet
we still print them as signed to easily recognise the underflow
condition.
rq->nr_uninterruptible has 'special' accounting and can in fact very
easily become negative on a per-cpu basis.
It was noted that since the P() macro assumes things are long long and
the promotion of unsigned 'int/long' to long long on 32bit doesn't
sign extend we print silly large numbers instead of the easier to read
signed numbers.
Therefore extend the P() macro to not require the sign extention.

Group imbalance is meant to deal with situations where affinity masks
and sched domains don't align well, such as 3 cpus from one group and
6 from another. In this case the domain based balancer will want to
put an equal amount of tasks on each side even though they don't have
equal cpus.
Currently group_imb is set whenever two cpus of a group have a weight
difference of at least one avg task and the heaviest cpu has at least
two tasks. A group with imbalance set will always be picked as busiest
and a balance pass will be forced.
The problem is that even if there are no affinity masks this stuff can
trigger and cause weird balancing decisions, eg. the observed
behaviour was that of 6 cpus, 5 had 2 and 1 had 3 tasks, due to the
difference of 1 avg load (they all had the same weight) and nr_running
being >1 the group_imbalance logic triggered and did the weird thing
of pulling more load instead of trying to move the 1 excess task to
the other domain of 6 cpus that had 5 cpu with 2 tasks and 1 cpu with
1 task.
Curb the group_imbalance stuff by making the nr_running condition
weaker by also tracking the min_nr_running and using the difference in
nr_running over the set instead of the absolute max nr_running.

While investigating why the load-balancer did funny I found that the
rq->cpu_load[] tables were completely screwy.. a bit more digging
revealed that the updates that got through were missing ticks followed
by a catchup of 2 ticks.
The catchup assumes the cpu was idle during that time (since only nohz
can cause missed ticks and the machine is idle etc..) this means that
esp. the higher indices were significantly lower than they ought to
be.
The reason for this is that its not correct to compare against jiffies
on every jiffy on any other cpu than the cpu that updates jiffies.
This patch cludges around it by only doing the catch-up stuff from
nohz_idle_balance() and doing the regular stuff unconditionally from
the tick.

Patches c22402a2f ("sched/fair: Let minimally loaded cpu balance the
group") and 0ce90475 ("sched/fair: Add some serialization to the
sched_domain load-balance walk") are horribly broken so revert them.
The problem is that while it sounds good to have the minimally loaded
cpu do the pulling of more load, the way we walk the domains there is
absolutely no guarantee this cpu will actually get to the domain. In
fact its very likely it wont. Therefore the higher up the tree we get,
the less likely it is we'll balance at all.
The first of mask always walks up, while sucky in that it accumulates
load on the first cpu and needs extra passes to spread it out at least
guarantees a cpu gets up that far and load-balancing happens at all.
Since its now always the first and idle cpus should always be able to
balance so they get a task as fast as possible we can also do away
with the added serialization.

The current code groups up to 16 nodes in a level and then puts an
ALLNODES domain spanning the entire tree on top of that. This doesn't
reflect the numa topology and esp for the smaller not-fully-connected
machines out there today this might make a difference.
Therefore, build a proper numa topology based on node_distance().
Since there's no fixed numa layers anymore, the static SD_NODE_INIT
and SD_ALLNODES_INIT aren't usable anymore, the new code tries to
construct something similar and scales some values either on the
number of cpus in the domain and/or the node_distance() ratio.

Currently we let the leftmost (or first idle) cpu ascend the
sched_domain tree and perform load-balancing. The result is that the
busiest cpu in the group might be performing this function and pull
more load to itself. The next load balance pass will then try to
equalize this again.

Since there's a PID space limit of 30bits (see
futex.h:FUTEX_TID_MASK) and allocating that many tasks (assuming a
lower bound of 2 pages per task) would still take 8T of memory it
seems reasonable to say that unsigned int is sufficient for
rq->nr_running.
When we do get anywhere near that amount of tasks I suspect other
things would go funny, load-balancer load computations would really
need to be hoisted to 128bit etc.
So save a few bytes and convert rq->nr_running and friends to
unsigned int.

Commits 367456c756 ("sched: Ditch per cgroup task lists for
load-balancing") and 5d6523ebd ("sched: Fix load-balance wreckage")
left some more wreckage.
By setting loop_max unconditionally to ->nr_running load-balancing
could take a lot of time on very long runqueues (hackbench!). So keep
the sysctl as max limit of the amount of tasks we'll iterate.
Furthermore, the min load filter for migration completely fails with
cgroups since inequality in per-cpu state can easily lead to such
small loads :/
Furthermore the change to add new tasks to the tail of the queue
instead of the head seems to have some effect.. not quite sure I
understand why.
Combined these fixes solve the huge hackbench regression reported by
Tim when hackbench is ran in a cgroup.

All SMP architectures have magic to fork the idle task and to store it
for reusage when cpu hotplug is enabled. Provide a generic
infrastructure for it.
Create/reinit the idle thread for the cpu which is brought up in the
generic code and hand the thread pointer to the architecture code via
__cpu_up().
Note, that fork_idle() is called via a workqueue, because this
guarantees that the idle thread does not get a reference to a user
space VM. This can happen when the boot process did not bring up all
possible cpus and a later cpu_up() is initiated via the sysfs
interface. In that case fork_idle() would be called in the context of
the user space task and take a reference on the user space VM.

Migration status depends on a difference of weight from 0 and 1.
If weight > 1 (<= 1) and old weight <= 1 (> 1) then task becomes
pushable (or not pushable). We are not insterested in its exact
values, is it 3 or 4, for example.
Now if we are changing affinity from a set of 3 cpus to a set of 4, the-
task will be dequeued and enqueued sequentially without important
difference in comparison with initial state. The only difference is in
internal representation of plist queue of pushable tasks and the fact
that the task may won't be the first in a sequence of the same priority
tasks. But it seems to me it gives nothing.

sched/arch: Introduce the finish_arch_post_lock_switch() scheduler callback
The function for_each_cpu_mask() expects a *pointer* to struct

passes the value itself.
And moreover, for_each_cpu_mask() has been marked as obselete
in include/linux/cpumask.h. So move to the more appropriate
for_each_cpu() variant.

MAINTAINERS: Update email address for SCHEDULER and PERF EVENTS
If schedule is called from an interrupt handler __schedule_bug()
will call show_regs() with the registers saved during the
interrupt handling done in do_IRQ(). This means we'll see the
registers and the backtrace for the process that was interrupted
and not the full backtrace explaining who called schedule().
This is due to 838225b ("sched: use show_regs() to improve
__schedule_bug() output", 2007-10-24) which improperly assumed
that get_irq_regs() would return the registers for the current
stack because it is being called from within an interrupt
handler. Simply remove the show_reg() code so that we dump a
backtrace for the interrupt handler that called schedule().
[ I ran across this when I was presented with a scheduling while
atomic log with a stacktrace pointing at spin_unlock_irqrestore().
It made no sense and I had to guess what interrupt handler could
be called and poke around for someone calling schedule() in an
interrupt handler. A simple test of putting an msleep() in
an interrupt handler works better with this patch because you
can actually see the msleep() call in the backtrace. ]

Avoid extra work by continuing on to the next rt_rq if the highest
prio task in current rt_rq is the same priority as our candidate
task.
More detailed explanation: if next is not NULL, then we have found a
candidate task, and its priority is next->prio. Now we are looking
for an even higher priority task in the other rt_rq's. idx is the
highest priority in the current candidate rt_rq. In the current 3.3
code, if idx is equal to next->prio, we would start scanning the tasks
in that rt_rq and replace the current candidate task with a task from
that rt_rq. But the new task would only have a priority that is equal
to our previous candidate task, so we have not advanced our goal of
finding a higher prio task. So we should avoid the extra work by
continuing on to the next rt_rq if idx is equal to next->prio.

Commit 5fbd036b55 ("sched: Cleanup cpu_active madness"), which was
supposed to finally sort the cpu_active mess, instead uncovered more.
Since CPU_STARTING is ran before setting the cpu online, there's a
(small) window where the cpu has active,!online.
If during this time there's a wakeup of a task that used to reside on
that cpu select_task_rq() will use select_fallback_rq() to compute an
alternative cpu to run on since we find !online.
select_fallback_rq() however will compute the new cpu against
cpu_active, this means that it can return the same cpu it started out
with, the !online one, since that cpu is in fact marked active.
This results in us trying to scheduling a task on an offline cpu and
triggering a WARN in the IPI code.
The solution proposed by Chuansheng Liu of setting cpu_active in
set_cpu_online() is buggy, firstly not all archs actually use
set_cpu_online(), secondly, not all archs call set_cpu_online() with
IRQs disabled, this means we would introduce either the same race or
the race from fd8a7de17 ("x86: cpu-hotplug: Prevent softirq wakeup on
wrong CPU") -- albeit much narrower.
[ By setting online first and active later we have a window of
online,!active, fresh and bound kthreads have task_cpu() of 0 and
since cpu0 isn't in tsk_cpus_allowed() we end up in
select_fallback_rq() which excludes !active, resulting in a reset
of ->cpus_allowed and the thread running all over the place. ]
The solution is to re-work select_fallback_rq() to require active
_and_ online. This makes the active,!online case work as expected,
OTOH archs running CPU_STARTING after setting online are now
vulnerable to the issue from fd8a7de17 -- these are alpha and
blackfin.

Now the purpose of cpu_active is mostly with bringing down a cpu, where
we mark it !active to avoid the load-balancer from moving tasks to it
while we tear down the cpu. This is required because we only update the
sched_domain tree after we brought the cpu-down. And this is needed so
that some tasks can still run while we bring it down, we just don't want
new tasks to appear.
On cpu-up however the sched_domain tree doesn't yet include the new cpu,
so its invisible to the load-balancer, regardless of the active state.
So instead of setting the active state after we boot the new cpu (and
consequently having to wait for it before enabling interrupts) set the
cpu active before we set it online and avoid the whole mess.

This reverts commit 8f2f748b06.
It causes some odd regression that we have not figured out, and it's too

As reported by Konstantin Khlebnikov, it causes consistent hangs on his
laptop (Thinkpad x220: 2x cores + HT). They can be avoided by adding
calls to "rebuild_sched_domains();" in cpuset_cpu_[in]active() for the
CPU_{ONLINE/DOWN_FAILED/DOWN_PREPARE}_FROZEN cases, but it's not at all
clear why, and it makes no sense.
Konstantin's config doesn't even have CONFIG_CPUSETS enabled, just to
make things even more interesting. So it's not the cpusets, it's just
the scheduling domains.
So until this is understood, revert.

Per cgroup load-balance has numerous problems, chief amongst them that
there is no real sane order in them. So stop pretending it makes sense
and enqueue all tasks on a single list.
This also allows us to more easily fix the fwd progress issue
uncovered by the lock-break stuff. Rotate the list on failure to
migreate and limit the total iterations to nr_running (which with
releasing the lock isn't strictly accurate but close enough).
Also add a filter that skips very light tasks on the first attempt
around the list, this attempts to avoid shooting whole cgroups around
without affecting over balance.

Idle task boosting is a nono in general. There is one
exception, when PREEMPT_RT and NOHZ is active:
The idle task calls get_next_timer_interrupt() and holds
the timer wheel base->lock on the CPU and another CPU wants
to access the timer (probably to cancel it). We can safely
ignore the boosting request, as the idle CPU runs this code
with interrupts disabled and will complete the lock
protected section without being interrupted. So there is no
real need to boost.

makes no sense to acquire the waitqueue lock for wakeup all. Provide
__wake_up_all_locked().
This is an optimization on the vanilla kernel (to be used by the
PCI code) and an important semantic distinction on -rt.

Create a distinction between scheduler related preempt_enable_no_resched()
calls and the nearly one hundred other places in the kernel that do not
want to reschedule, for one reason or another.
This distinction matters for -rt, where the scheduler and the non-scheduler
preempt models (and checks) are different. For upstream it's purely
documentational.

When a runqueue has rt_runtime_us = 0 then the only way it can
accumulate rt_time is via PI boosting. That causes the runqueue
to be throttled and replenishing does not change anything due to
rt_runtime_us = 0. So avoid that situation by clearing rt_time and
skip the throttling alltogether.

When a runqueue is throttled we cannot disable the period timer
because that timer is the only way to undo the throttling.
We got stale throttling entries when a rq was throttled and then the

Currently, during CPU hotplug, the cpuset callbacks modify the cpusets
to reflect the state of the system, and this handling is asymmetric.
That is, upon CPU offline, that CPU is removed from all cpusets. However
when it comes back online, it is put back only to the root cpuset.
This gives rise to a significant problem during suspend/resume. During
suspend, we offline all non-boot cpus and during resume we online them back.
Which means, after a resume, all cpusets (except the root cpuset) will be
restricted to just one single CPU (the boot cpu). But the whole point of
suspend/resume is to restore the system to a state which is as close as
possible to how it was before suspend.
So to fix this, don't touch cpusets during suspend/resume. That is, modify
the cpuset-related CPU hotplug callback to just ignore CPU hotplug when it
is initiated as part of the suspend/resume sequence.

So here's a boot tested patch on top of Jason's series that does
all the cleanups I talked about and turns jump labels into a
more intuitive to use facility. It should also address the
various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels.
Typical usage scenarios:
#include <linux/static_key.h>
struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE;
if (static_key_false(&key))
do unlikely code
else
do likely code
Or:
if (static_key_true(&key))
do likely code
else
do unlikely code
The static key is modified via:
static_key_slow_inc(&key);
...
static_key_slow_dec(&key);
The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an
expensive operation.
I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note
that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename
blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label
patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to
decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit.
On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to
likely()/unlikely() branches.

Commit 1ac9bc69 ("sched/tracing: Add a new tracepoint for sleeptime")
added a new sched:sched_stat_sleeptime tracepoint.
It's broken: the first sample we get on a task might be bad because
of a stale sleep_start value that wasn't reset at the last task switch
because the tracepoint was not active.
It also breaks the existing schedstat samples due to the side
effects of:
- se->statistics.sleep_start = 0;
...
- se->statistics.block_start = 0;
Nor do I see means to fix it without adding overhead to the scheduler
fast path, which I'm not willing to for the sake of redundant
instrumentation.
Most importantly, sleep time information can already be constructed
by tracing context switches and wakeups, and taking the timestamp
difference between the schedule-out, the wakeup and the schedule-in.

The argument is not used at all, and it's not necessary, because
a specific callback handler of course knows which subsys it
belongs to.
Now only ->pupulate() takes this argument, because the handlers of
this callback always call cgroup_add_file()/cgroup_add_files().
So we reduce a few lines of code, though the shrinking of object size
is minimal.

with the newly_idle mode which doesn't update the cpu_power.

This issue happens under the following conditions:
1. preemption is off
2. __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW is defined
3. RT scheduling class
4. SMP system
Sequence is as follows:
1.suppose current task is A. start schedule()
2.task A is enqueued pushable task at the entry of schedule()
__schedule
prev = rq->curr;
...
put_prev_task
put_prev_task_rt
enqueue_pushable_task
4.pick the task B as next task.
next = pick_next_task(rq);
3.rq->curr set to task B and context_switch is started.
rq->curr = next;
4.At the entry of context_swtich, release this cpu's rq->lock.
context_switch
prepare_task_switch
prepare_lock_switch
raw_spin_unlock_irq(&rq->lock);
5.Shortly after rq->lock is released, interrupt is occurred and start IRQ context
6.try_to_wake_up() which called by ISR acquires rq->lock
try_to_wake_up
ttwu_remote
rq = __task_rq_lock(p)
ttwu_do_wakeup(rq, p, wake_flags);
task_woken_rt
7.push_rt_task picks the task A which is enqueued before.
task_woken_rt
push_rt_tasks(rq)
next_task = pick_next_pushable_task(rq)
8.At find_lock_lowest_rq(), If double_lock_balance() returns 0,
lowest_rq can be the remote rq.
(But,If preemption is on, double_lock_balance always return 1 and it
does't happen.)
push_rt_task
find_lock_lowest_rq
if (double_lock_balance(rq, lowest_rq))..
9.find_lock_lowest_rq return the available rq. task A is migrated to
the remote cpu/rq.
push_rt_task
...
deactivate_task(rq, next_task, 0);
set_task_cpu(next_task, lowest_rq->cpu);
activate_task(lowest_rq, next_task, 0);
10. But, task A is on irq context at this cpu.
So, task A is scheduled by two cpus at the same time until restore from IRQ.
Task A's stack is corrupted.
To fix it, don't migrate an RT task if it's still running.

With the recent nohz scheduler changes, rq's nohz flag
'NOHZ_TICK_STOPPED' and its associated state doesn't get cleared
immediately after the cpu exits idle. This gets cleared as part
of the next tick seen on that cpu.
For the cpu offline support, we need to clear this state
manually. Fix it by registering a cpu notifier, which clears the
nohz idle load balance state for this rq explicitly during the
CPU_DYING notification.
There won't be any nohz updates for that cpu, after the
CPU_DYING notification. But lets be extra paranoid and skip
updating the nohz state in the select_nohz_load_balancer() if
the cpu is not in active state anymore.

KOSAKI Motohiro noticed the following race:
> CPU0 CPU1
> --------------------------------------------------------
> deactivate_task()
> task->state = TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE;
> activate_task()
> rq->nr_uninterruptible--;
>
> schedule()
> deactivate_task()
> rq->nr_uninterruptible++;
>
Kosaki-San's scenario is possible when CPU0 runs
__sched_setscheduler() against CPU1's current @task.
__sched_setscheduler() does a dequeue/enqueue in order to move
the task to its new queue (position) to reflect the newly provided
scheduling parameters. However it should be completely invariant to
nr_uninterruptible accounting, sched_setscheduler() doesn't affect
readyness to run, merely policy on when to run.
So convert the inappropriate activate/deactivate_task usage to
enqueue/dequeue_task, which avoids the nr_uninterruptible accounting.
Also convert the two other sites: __migrate_task() and
normalize_task() that still use activate/deactivate_task. These sites
aren't really a problem since __migrate_task() will only be called on
non-running task (and therefore are immume to the described problem)
and normalize_task() isn't ever used on regular systems.
Also remove the comments from activate/deactivate_task since they're
misleading at best.

- a new user of it appeared in commit a38f7907b9 ("crypto: Add

causing no automatic merge conflict, but Eric Paris pointed out the
issue.
Eric and David reported dead machines and traced it to commit
a195f004 ("sched: Fix load-balance lock-breaking"), it turns out
there's still a scenario where we can end up re-trying forever.
Since there is no strict forward progress guarantee in the
load-balance iteration we can get stuck re-retrying the same
task-set over and over.
Creating a forward progress guarantee with the existing
structure is somewhat non-trivial, for now simply terminate the
retry loop after a few tries.

Invalid bandwidth period's lower/upper limits are denoted
by min_cfs_quota_period/max_cfs_quota_period repsectively,
and are checked against valid period in tg_set_cfs_bandwidth().
As pjt pointed out, negative input will result in very large unsigned

The current lock break relies on contention on the rq locks, something
which might never come because we've got IRQs disabled. Or will be
very likely because on anything with more than 2 cpus a synchronized
load-balance pass will very likely cause contention on the rq locks.
Also the sched_nr_migrate thing fails when it gets trapped the loops
of either the cgroup muck in load_balance_fair() or the move_tasks()
load condition.
Instead, use the new lb_flags field to propagate break/abort
conditions for all these loops and create a new loop outside the irq
disabled on the break being required.

This is due to the sched_domain stuff being RCU protected and
commit 0b005cf5 ("sched, nohz: Implement sched group, domain
aware nohz idle load balancing") overlooking this fact.
The sd variable only lives inside the for_each_domain() block,

cpu bit in the nohz.idle_cpu_mask are reset in the first busy tick after
exiting idle. So during nohz_idle_balance(), intention is to double

going ahead in performing idle balance for that cpu.

Right now, after we collect tick statistics for user and system and store them
in a well known location, we keep the same statistics again for cpuacct.
Since cpuacct is hierarchical, the numbers for the root cgroup should be
absolutely equal to the system-wide numbers.
So it would be better to just use it: this patch changes cpuacct accounting
in a way that the cpustat statistics are kept in a struct kernel_cpustat percpu
array. In the root cgroup case, we just point it to the main array. The rest of
the hierarchy walk can be totally disabled later with a static branch - but I am
not doing it here.

When there are many logical cpu's that enter and exit idle often, members of
the global nohz data structure are getting modified very frequently causing
lot of cache-line contention.
Make the nohz idle load balancing more scalabale by using the sched domain
topology and 'nr_busy_cpu's in the struct sched_group_power.
Idle load balance is kicked on one of the idle cpu's when there is atleast
one idle cpu and:
- a busy rq having more than one task or
- a busy rq's scheduler group that share package resources (like HT/MC
siblings) and has more than one member in that group busy or
- for the SD_ASYM_PACKING domain, if the lower numbered cpu's in that
domain are idle compared to the busy ones.
This will help in kicking the idle load balancing request only when
there is a potential imbalance. And once it is mostly balanced, these kicks will
be minimized.
These changes helped improve the workload that is context switch intensive
between number of task pairs by 2x on a 8 socket NHM-EX based system.

Introduce nr_busy_cpus in the struct sched_group_power [Not in sched_group
because sched groups are duplicated for the SD_OVERLAP scheduler domain]
and for each cpu that enters and exits idle, this parameter will
be updated in each scheduler group of the scheduler domain that this cpu
belongs to.
To avoid the frequent update of this state as the cpu enters
and exits idle, the update of the stat during idle exit is
delayed to the first timer tick that happens after the cpu becomes busy.
This is done using NOHZ_IDLE flag in the struct rq's nohz_flags.

Introduce nohz_flags in the struct rq, which will track these two flags
for now.
NOHZ_TICK_STOPPED keeps track of the tick stopped status that gets set when
the tick is stopped. It will be used to update the nohz idle load balancer data
structures during the first busy tick after the tick is restarted. At this
first busy tick after tickless idle, NOHZ_TICK_STOPPED flag will be reset.
This will minimize the nohz idle load balancer status updates that currently
happen for every tickless exit, making it more scalable when there
are many logical cpu's that enter and exit idle often.
NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK will track the need for nohz idle load balance
on this rq. This will replace the nohz_balance_kick in the rq, which was
not being updated atomically.

Instead of going through the scheduler domain hierarchy multiple times
(for giving priority to an idle core over an idle SMT sibling in a busy
core), start with the highest scheduler domain with the SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES
flag and traverse the domain hierarchy down till we find an idle group.
This cleanup also addresses an issue reported by Mike where the recent
changes returned the busy thread even in the presence of an idle SMT
sibling in single socket platforms.
