This patchset is based on Google-internal RSEQ work done by Paul
Turner and Andrew Hunter.
When working with per-CPU RSEQ-based memory allocations, it is
sometimes important to make sure that a global memory location is no
longer accessed from RSEQ critical sections. For example, there can be
two per-CPU lists, one is "active" and accessed per-CPU, while another
one is inactive and worked on asynchronously "off CPU" (e.g. garbage
collection is performed). Then at some point the two lists are
swapped, and a fast RCU-like mechanism is required to make sure that
the previously active list is no longer accessed.
This patch introduces such a mechanism: in short, membarrier() syscall
issues an IPI to a CPU, restarting a potentially active RSEQ critical
section on the CPU.

Barry Song noted the following
Something is wrong. In find_busiest_group(), we are checking if
src has higher load, however, in task_numa_find_cpu(), we are
checking if dst will have higher load after balancing. It seems
it is not sensible to check src.
It maybe cause wrong imbalance value, for example,
if dst_running = env->dst_stats.nr_running + 1 results in 3 or
above, and src_running = env->src_stats.nr_running - 1 results
in 1;
The current code is thinking imbalance as 0 since src_running is
smaller than 2. This is inconsistent with load balancer.
Basically, in find_busiest_group(), the NUMA imbalance is ignored if moving
a task "from an almost idle domain" to a "domain with spare capacity". This
patch forbids movement "from a misplaced domain" to "an almost idle domain"
as that is closer to what the CPU load balancer expects.
This patch is not a universal win. The old behaviour was intended to allow
a task from an almost idle NUMA node to migrate to its preferred node if
the destination had capacity but there are corner cases. For example,
a NAS compute load could be parallelised to use 1/3rd of available CPUs
but not all those potential tasks are active at all times allowing this
logic to trigger. An obvious example is specjbb 2005 running various
numbers of warehouses on a 2 socket box with 80 cpus.

The performance at the mid-point is better but not universally better. The
patch is a mixed bag depending on the workload, machine and overall
levels of utilisation. Sometimes it's better (sometimes much better),
other times it is worse (sometimes much worse). Given that there isn't a
universally good decision in this section and more people seem to prefer
the patch then it may be best to keep the LB decisions consistent and
revisit imbalance handling when the load balancer code changes settle down.
Jirka Hladky added the following observation.
Our results are mostly in line with what you see. We observe
big gains (20-50%) when the system is loaded to 1/3 of the
maximum capacity and mixed results at the full load - some
workloads benefit from the patch at the full load, others not,
but performance changes at the full load are mostly within the
noise of results (+/-5%). Overall, we think this patch is helpful.

The busy_factor, which increases load balance interval when a cpu is busy,
is set to 32 by default. This value generates some huge LB interval on
large system like the THX2 made of 2 node x 28 cores x 4 threads.
For such system, the interval increases from 112ms to 3584ms at MC level.
And from 228ms to 7168ms at NUMA level.
Even on smaller system, a lower busy factor has shown improvement on the
fair distribution of the running time so let reduce it for all.

sched domains tend to trigger simultaneously the load balance loop but
the larger domains often need more time to collect statistics. This
slowness makes the larger domain trying to detach tasks from a rq whereas
tasks already migrated somewhere else at a sub-domain level. This is not
a real problem for idle LB because the period of smaller domains will
increase with its CPUs being busy and this will let time for higher ones
to pulled tasks. But this becomes a problem when all CPUs are already busy
because all domains stay synced when they trigger their LB.
A simple way to minimize simultaneous LB of all domains is to decrement the
the busy interval by 1 jiffies. Because of the busy_factor, the interval of
larger domain will not be a multiple of smaller ones anymore.

The 25% default imbalance threshold for DIE and NUMA domain is large
enough to generate significant unfairness between threads. A typical
example is the case of 11 threads running on 2x4 CPUs. The imbalance of
20% between the 2 groups of 4 cores is just low enough to not trigger
the load balance between the 2 groups. We will have always the same 6
threads on one group of 4 CPUs and the other 5 threads on the other
group of CPUS. With a fair time sharing in each group, we ends up with
+20% running time for the group of 5 threads.
Consider decreasing the imbalance threshold for overloaded case where we
use the load to balance task and to ensure fair time sharing.

Some UCs like 9 always running tasks on 8 CPUs can't be balanced and the
load balancer currently migrates the waiting task between the CPUs in an
almost random manner. The success of a rq pulling a task depends of the
value of nr_balance_failed of its domains and its ability to be faster
than others to detach it. This behavior results in an unfair distribution
of the running time between tasks because some CPUs will run most of the
time, if not always, the same task whereas others will share their time
between several tasks.
Instead of using nr_balance_failed as a boolean to relax the condition
for detaching task, the LB will use nr_balanced_failed to relax the
threshold between the tasks'load and the imbalance. This mecanism
prevents the same rq or domain to always win the load balance fight.

We've met problems that occasionally tasks with full cpumask
(e.g. by putting it into a cpuset or setting to full affinity)
were migrated to our isolated cpus in production environment.
After some analysis, we found that it is due to the current
select_idle_smt() not considering the sched_domain mask.
Steps to reproduce on my 31-CPU hyperthreads machine:
1. with boot parameter: "isolcpus=domain,2-31"
(thread lists: 0,16 and 1,17)
2. cgcreate -g cpu:test; cgexec -g cpu:test "test_threads"
3. some threads will be migrated to the isolated cpu16~17.
Fix it by checking the valid domain mask in select_idle_smt().

The RT_RUNTIME_SHARE sched feature enables the sharing of rt_runtime
between CPUs, allowing a CPU to run a real-time task up to 100% of the
time while leaving more space for non-real-time tasks to run on the CPU
that lend rt_runtime.
The problem is that a CPU can easily borrow enough rt_runtime to allow
a spinning rt-task to run forever, starving per-cpu tasks like kworkers,
which are non-real-time by design.
This patch disables RT_RUNTIME_SHARE by default, avoiding this problem.
The feature will still be present for users that want to enable it,
though.

When a boosted task gets throttled, what normally happens is that it's
immediately enqueued again with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH, which replenishes the
runtime and clears the dl_throttled flag. There is a special case however:
if the throttling happened on sched-out and the task has been deboosted in
the meantime, the replenish is skipped as the task will return to its
normal scheduling class. This leaves the task with the dl_throttled flag
set.
Now if the task gets boosted up to the deadline scheduling class again
while it is sleeping, it's still in the throttled state. The normal wakeup
however will enqueue the task with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH not set, so we don't
actually place it on the rq. Thus we end up with a task that is runnable,
but not actually on the rq and neither a immediate replenishment happens,
nor is the replenishment timer set up, so the task is stuck in
forever-throttled limbo.
Clear the dl_throttled flag before dropping back to the normal scheduling
class to fix this issue.

The last sd_flag_debug shuffle inadvertently moved its definition within
an #ifdef CONFIG_SYSCTL region. While CONFIG_SYSCTL is indeed required to
produce the sched domain ctl interface (which uses sd_flag_debug to output
flag names), it isn't required to run any assertion on the sched_domain
hierarchy itself.
Move the definition of sd_flag_debug to a CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG region of
topology.c.
Now at long last we have:
- sd_flag_debug declared in include/linux/sched/topology.h iff
CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y
- sd_flag_debug defined in kernel/sched/topology.c, conditioned by:
- CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG, with an explicit #ifdef block
- CONFIG_SMP, as a requirement to compile topology.c
With this change, all symbols pertaining to SD flag metadata (with the
exception of __SD_FLAG_CNT) are now defined exclusively within topology.c

sched_submit_work() is considered to be a hot path. The preempt_disable()
instruction is a compiler barrier and forces the compiler to load
task_struct::flags for the second comparison.
By using a local variable, the compiler can load the value once and keep it in
a register for the second comparison.

The code in reweight_entity() can be simplified.
For a sched entity on the rq, the entity accounting can be replaced by
cfs_rq instantaneous load updates currently called from within the
entity accounting.
Even though an entity on the rq can't represent a task in
reweight_entity() (a task is always dequeued before calling this
function) and so the numa task accounting and the rq->cfs_tasks list
management of the entity accounting are never called, the redundant
cfs_rq->nr_running decrement/increment will be avoided.

In find_energy_efficient_cpu() 'cpu_cap' could be less that 'util'.
It might be because of RT, DL (so higher sched class than CFS), irq or
thermal pressure signal, which reduce the capacity value.
In such situation the result of 'cpu_cap - util' might be negative but
stored in the unsigned long. Then it might be compared with other unsigned
long when uclamp_rq_util_with() reduced the 'util' such that is passes the
fits_capacity() check.
Prevent this situation and make the arithmetic more safe.

Lots of things take locks, due to a wee bug, rcu_lockdep didn't notice
that the locking tracepoints were using RCU.
Push rcu_idle_{enter,exit}() as deep as possible into the idle paths,
this also resolves a lot of _rcuidle()/RCU_NONIDLE() usage.
Specifically, sched_clock_idle_wakeup_event() will use ktime which
will use seqlocks which will tickle lockdep, and

We currently set this flag *only* on domains whose topology level exactly
match the level where we detect asymmetry (as returned by
asym_cpu_capacity_level()). This is rather problematic.
Say there are two clusters in the system, one with a lone big CPU and the
other with a mix of big and LITTLE CPUs (as is allowed by DynamIQ):
DIE [ ]
MC [ ][ ]
0 1 2 3 4
L L B B B
asym_cpu_capacity_level() will figure out that the MC level is the one
where all CPUs can see a CPU of max capacity, and we will thus set
SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY at MC level for all CPUs.
That lone big CPU will degenerate its MC domain, since it would be alone in
there, and will end up with just a DIE domain. Since the flag was only set
at MC, this CPU ends up not seeing any SD with the flag set, which is
broken.
Rather than clearing dflags at every topology level, clear it before
entering the topology level loop. This will properly propagate upwards
flags that are set starting from a certain level.

Decoding the output of /proc/sys/kernel/sched_domain/cpu*/domain*/flags has
always been somewhat annoying, as one needs to go fetch the bit -> name
mapping from the source code itself. This encoding can be saved in a script
somewhere, but that isn't safe from flags being added, removed or even
shuffled around.
What matters for debugging purposes is to get *which* flags are set in a
given domain, their associated value is pretty much meaningless.
Make the sd flags debug file output flag names.

core_initcall level and allow the default cpufreq governor to be
specified in the kernel command line (Quentin Perret).
- Extend, fix and clean up the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas
Pandruvada, Rafael Wysocki):
* Add a new sysfs attribute for disabling/enabling CPU
energy-efficiency optimizations in the processor.
* Make the driver avoid enabling HWP if EPP is not supported.
* Allow the driver to handle numeric EPP values in the sysfs
interface and fix the setting of EPP via sysfs in the active
mode.
* Eliminate a static checker warning and clean up a kerneldoc
comment.
- Clean up some variable declarations in the powernv cpufreq driver
(Wei Yongjun).
- Fix up the ->enter_s2idle callback definition to cover the case

jz4740 driver (Paul Cercueil).
- Fix white space in some places in the hibernate code and make the
system-wide PM code use "const char *" where appropriate (Xiang
Chen, Alexey Dobriyan).

RT tasks by default run at the highest capacity/performance level. When
uclamp is selected this default behavior is retained by enforcing the
requested uclamp.min (p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) of the RT tasks to be
uclamp_none(UCLAMP_MAX), which is SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE; the maximum
value.
This is also referred to as 'the default boost value of RT tasks'.
See commit 1a00d999971c ("sched/uclamp: Set default clamps for RT tasks").
On battery powered devices, it is desired to control this default
(currently hardcoded) behavior at runtime to reduce energy consumed by
RT tasks.
For example, a mobile device manufacturer where big.LITTLE architecture
is dominant, the performance of the little cores varies across SoCs, and
on high end ones the big cores could be too power hungry.
Given the diversity of SoCs, the new knob allows manufactures to tune
the best performance/power for RT tasks for the particular hardware they
run on.
They could opt to further tune the value when the user selects
a different power saving mode or when the device is actively charging.
The runtime aspect of it further helps in creating a single kernel image
that can be run on multiple devices that require different tuning.
Keep in mind that a lot of RT tasks in the system are created by the
kernel. On Android for instance I can see over 50 RT tasks, only
a handful of which created by the Android framework.
To control the default behavior globally by system admins and device
integrator, introduce the new sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_min_rt_default
to change the default boost value of the RT tasks.
I anticipate this to be mostly in the form of modifying the init script
of a particular device.
To avoid polluting the fast path with unnecessary code, the approach
taken is to synchronously do the update by traversing all the existing
tasks in the system. This could race with a concurrent fork(), which is
dealt with by introducing sched_post_fork() function which will ensure
the racy fork will get the right update applied.
Tested on Juno-r2 in combination with the RT capacity awareness [1].
By default an RT task will go to the highest capacity CPU and run at the
maximum frequency, which is particularly energy inefficient on high end
mobile devices because the biggest core[s] are 'huge' and power hungry.
With this patch the RT task can be controlled to run anywhere by
default, and doesn't cause the frequency to be maximum all the time.
Yet any task that really needs to be boosted can easily escape this
default behavior by modifying its requested uclamp.min value
(p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) via sched_setattr() syscall.

The following splat was caught when setting uclamp value of a task:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ./include/linux/percpu-rwsem.h:49
cpus_read_lock+0x68/0x130
static_key_enable+0x1c/0x38
__sched_setscheduler+0x900/0xad8
Fix by ensuring we enable the key outside of the critical section in
__sched_setscheduler()

In sched_update_tick_dependency() there's two calls that check
whether nohz_full is enabled: tick_nohz_full_cpu() does it
implicitly, while there's also an explicit call to tick_nohz_full_enabled().
Remove the duplicated, open coded check.

Since the default_wake_function() passes its flags onto
try_to_wake_up(), warn if those flags collide with internal values.
Given that the supplied flags are garbage, no repair can be done but at
least alert the user to the damage they are causing.
In the belief that these errors should be picked up during testing, the
warning is only compiled in under CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG.

The following commit:
14533a16c46d ("thermal/cpu-cooling, sched/core: Move the arch_set_thermal_pressure() API to generic scheduler code")
moved the definition of arch_set_thermal_pressure() to sched/core.c, but
kept its declaration in linux/arch_topology.h. When building e.g. an x86
kernel with CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=y, cpufreq_cooling.c ends up
getting the declaration of arch_set_thermal_pressure() from
include/linux/arch_topology.h, which is somewhat awkward.
On top of this, sched/core.c unconditionally defines
o The thermal_pressure percpu variable
o arch_set_thermal_pressure()
while arch_scale_thermal_pressure() does nothing unless redefined by the
architecture.
arch_*() functions are meant to be defined by architectures, so revert the
aforementioned commit and re-implement it in a way that keeps
arch_set_thermal_pressure() architecture-definable, and doesn't define the
thermal pressure percpu variable for kernels that don't need
it (CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=n).

idle_cpus are equal
In slow path, when selecting idlest group, if both groups have type
group_has_spare, only idle_cpus count gets compared.
As a result, if multiple tasks are created in a tight loop,
and go back to sleep immediately
(while waiting for all tasks to be created),
they may be scheduled on the same core, because CPU is back to idle
when the new fork happen.
For example:
sudo perf record -e sched:sched_wakeup_new -- \
sysbench threads --threads=4 run
...
total number of events: 61582
...
sudo perf script
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.633466: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129380 [120] success=1 CPU:007
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.634718: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129381 [120] success=1 CPU:007
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.635957: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129382 [120] success=1 CPU:007
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.637183: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129383 [120] success=1 CPU:007
This may have negative impact on performance for workloads with frequent
creation of multiple threads.
In this patch we are using group_util to select idlest group if both groups
have equal number of idle_cpus. Comparing the number of idle cpu is
not enough in this case, because the newly forked thread sleeps
immediately and before we select the cpu for the next one.
This is shown in the trace where the same CPU7 is selected for
all wakeup_new events.
That's why, looking at utilization when there is the same number of
CPU is a good way to see where the previous task was placed. Using
nr_running doesn't solve the problem because the newly forked task is not
running and the cpu would not have been idle in this case and an idle
CPU would have been selected instead.
With this patch newly created tasks would be better distributed.
With this patch:
sudo perf record -e sched:sched_wakeup_new -- \
sysbench threads --threads=4 run
...
total number of events: 74401
...
sudo perf script
sysbench 129455 [006] 75232.853257: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129457 [120] success=1 CPU:008
sysbench 129455 [006] 75232.854489: sched:sched_wakeup_new:

The "ticks" parameter was added in commit 0f004f5a696a ("sched: Cure more
NO_HZ load average woes") since calc_global_nohz() was called and needed
the "ticks" argument.
But in commit c308b56b5398 ("sched: Fix nohz load accounting -- again!")
it became unused as the function calc_global_nohz() dropped using "ticks".
