2012-07-24sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies', which withstand random ↵Mike Galbraith
perturbations 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. 4 socket 40 core + SMT Westmere box, single 30 sec tbench runs, higher is better: clients 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 .......................................................................... pre 30 41 118 645 3769 6214 12233 14312 post 299 603 1211 2418 4697 6847 11606 14557 A nice increase in performance.

2012-07-24cpusets: Remove/update outdated commentsSrivatsa S. Bhat
cpuset_track_online_cpus() is no longer present. So remove the outdated comment and replace it with reference to cpuset_update_active_cpus() which is its equivalent. Also, we don't lack memory hot-unplug anymore. And David Rientjes pointed out how it is dealt with. So update that comment as well. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2012-07-24cpusets, hotplug: Restructure functions that are invoked during hotplugSrivatsa S. Bhat
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. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2012-07-24cpusets, hotplug: Implement cpuset tree traversal in a helper functionSrivatsa S. Bhat
At present, the functions that deal with cpusets during CPU/Mem hotplug are quite messy, since a lot of the functionality is mixed up without clear separation. And this takes a toll on optimization as well. For example, the function cpuset_update_active_cpus() is called on both CPU offline and CPU online events; and it invokes scan_for_empty_cpusets(), which makes sense only for CPU offline events. And hence, the current code ends up unnecessarily traversing the cpuset tree during CPU online also. As a first step towards cleaning up those functions, encapsulate the cpuset tree traversal in a helper function, so as to facilitate upcoming changes. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2012-07-24CPU hotplug, cpusets, suspend: Don't modify cpusets during suspend/resumeSrivatsa S. Bhat
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.

2012-07-24sched/x86: Remove broken power estimationPeter Zijlstra
The x86 sched power implementation has been broken forever and gets in the way of other stuff, remove it. [ For archaeological interest, fixing this code would require dealing with the cross-cpu calling of these functions and more importantly, we need to filter idle time out of the a/m-perf stuff because the ratio will go down to 0 when idle, giving a 0 capacity which is not what we'd want. ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1339594110.8980.38.camel@twins Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
