Found this issue by kmemleak: the 'sg' and 'sgc' pointers from
__sdt_alloc() might be leaked as each domain holds many groups' ref,
but in destroy_sched_domain(), it only declined the first group ref.
Onlining and offlining a CPU can trigger this leak, and cause OOM.
Reproducer for my 6 CPUs machine:

The frequency update from the utilization update handlers can be divided
into two parts:
(A) Finding the next frequency
(B) Updating the frequency
While any CPU can do (A), (B) can be restricted to a group of CPUs only,
depending on the current platform.
For platforms where fast cpufreq switching is possible, both (A) and (B)
are always done from the same CPU and that CPU should be capable of
changing the frequency of the target CPU.
But for platforms where fast cpufreq switching isn't possible, after
doing (A) we wake up a kthread which will eventually do (B). This
kthread is already bound to the right set of CPUs, i.e. only those which
can change the frequency of CPUs of a cpufreq policy. And so any CPU
can actually do (A) in this case, as the frequency is updated from the
right set of CPUs only.
Check cpufreq_can_do_remote_dvfs() only for the fast switching case.

Utilization update callbacks are now processed remotely, even on the
CPUs that don't share cpufreq policy with the target CPU (if
dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu flag is set).
But in non-fast switch paths, the frequency is changed only from one of
policy->related_cpus. This happens because the kthread which does the
actual update is bound to a subset of CPUs (i.e. related_cpus).
Allow frequency to be remotely updated as well (i.e. call
__cpufreq_driver_target()) if dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu flag is set.

There is no agreed-upon definition of spin_unlock_wait()'s semantics,
and it appears that all callers could do just as well with a lock/unlock
pair. This commit therefore replaces the spin_unlock_wait() call in
completion_done() with spin_lock() followed immediately by spin_unlock().
This should be safe from a performance perspective because the lock
will be held only the wakeup happens really quickly.

Implement MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED with IPIs using cpumask built
from all runqueues for which current thread's mm is the same as the
thread calling sys_membarrier. It executes faster than the non-expedited
variant (no blocking). It also works on NOHZ_FULL configurations.
Scheduler-wise, it requires a memory barrier before and after context
switching between processes (which have different mm). The memory
barrier before context switch is already present. For the barrier after
context switch:
* Our TSO archs can do RELEASE without being a full barrier. Look at
x86 spin_unlock() being a regular STORE for example. But for those
archs, all atomics imply smp_mb and all of them have atomic ops in
switch_mm() for mm_cpumask(), and on x86 the CR3 load acts as a full
barrier.
* From all weakly ordered machines, only ARM64 and PPC can do RELEASE,
the rest does indeed do smp_mb(), so there the spin_unlock() is a full
barrier and we're good.
* ARM64 has a very heavy barrier in switch_to(), which suffices.
* PPC just removed its barrier from switch_to(), but appears to be
talking about adding something to switch_mm(). So add a
smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() for now, until this is settled on the PPC
side.
Changes since v3:
- Properly document the memory barriers provided by each architecture.
Changes since v2:
- Address comments from Peter Zijlstra,
- Add smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() after finish_lock_switch() in
finish_task_switch() to add the memory barrier we need after storing
to rq->curr. This is much simpler than the previous approach relying
on atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop(), which actually added a memory
barrier in the common case of switching between userspace processes.
- Return -EINVAL when MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED is used on a nohz_full
kernel, rather than having the whole membarrier system call returning
-ENOSYS. Indeed, CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED is compatible with nohz_full.
Adapt the CMD_QUERY mask accordingly.
Changes since v1:
- move membarrier code under kernel/sched/ because it uses the
scheduler runqueue,
- only add the barrier when we switch from a kernel thread. The case
where we switch from a user-space thread is already handled by
the atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop().
- add a comment to mmdrop() documenting the requirement on the implicit
memory barrier.

complete_all()
The complete_all() function modifies the completion's "done" variable to
UINT_MAX, and no other caller (wait_for_completion(), etc) will modify
it back to zero. That means that any call to complete_all() must have a
reinit_completion() before that completion can be used again.
Document this fact by the complete_all() function.
Also document that completion_done() will always return true if
complete_all() is called.

In commit:
3fed382b46ba ("sched/numa: Implement NUMA node level wake_affine()")
Rik changed wake_affine to consider NUMA information when balancing
between LLC domains.
There are a number of problems here which this patch tries to address:
- LLC < NODE; in this case we'd use the wrong information to balance
- !NUMA_BALANCING: in this case, the new code doesn't do any
balancing at all
- re-computes the NUMA data for every wakeup, this can mean iterating
up to 64 CPUs for every wakeup.
- default affine wakeups inside a cache
We address these by saving the load/capacity values for each
sched_domain during regular load-balance and using these values in
wake_affine_llc(). The obvious down-side to using cached values is
that they can be too old and poorly reflect reality.
But this way we can use LLC wide information and thus not rely on
assuming LLC matches NODE. We also don't rely on NUMA_BALANCING nor do
we have to aggegate two nodes (or even cache domains) worth of CPUs
for each wakeup.

Although wait_for_completion() and its family can cause deadlock, the
lock correctness validator could not be applied to them until now,
because things like complete() are usually called in a different context
from the waiting context, which violates lockdep's assumption.
Thanks to CONFIG_LOCKDEP_CROSSRELEASE, we can now apply the lockdep
detector to those completion operations. Applied it.

Since its inception, our understanding of ACQUIRE, esp. as applied to
spinlocks, has changed somewhat. Also, I wonder if, with a simple
change, we cannot make it provide more.
The problem with the comment is that the STORE done by spin_lock isn't
itself ordered by the ACQUIRE, and therefore a later LOAD can pass over
it and cross with any prior STORE, rendering the default WMB
insufficient (pointed out by Alan).
Now, this is only really a problem on PowerPC and ARM64, both of
which already defined smp_mb__before_spinlock() as a smp_mb().
At the same time, we can get a much stronger construct if we place
that same barrier _inside_ the spin_lock(). In that case we upgrade
the RCpc spinlock to an RCsc. That would make all schedule() calls
fully transitive against one another.

Steven Rostedt reported a potential race in RCU core because of
swake_up():
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
__call_rcu_core() {
spin_lock(rnp_root)
need_wake = __rcu_start_gp() {
rcu_start_gp_advanced() {
gp_flags = FLAG_INIT
}
}
rcu_gp_kthread() {
swait_event_interruptible(wq,
gp_flags & FLAG_INIT) {
spin_lock(q->lock)
*fetch wq->task_list here! *
list_add(wq->task_list, q->task_list)
spin_unlock(q->lock);
*fetch old value of gp_flags here *
spin_unlock(rnp_root)
rcu_gp_kthread_wake() {
swake_up(wq) {
swait_active(wq) {
list_empty(wq->task_list)
} * return false *
if (condition) * false *
schedule();
In this case, a wakeup is missed, which could cause the rcu_gp_kthread
waits for a long time.
The reason of this is that we do a lockless swait_active() check in
swake_up(). To fix this, we can either 1) add a smp_mb() in swake_up()
before swait_active() to provide the proper order or 2) simply remove
the swait_active() in swake_up().
The solution 2 not only fixes this problem but also keeps the swait and
wait API as close as possible, as wake_up() doesn't provide a full
barrier and doesn't do a lockless check of the wait queue either.
Moreover, there are users already using swait_active() to do their quick
checks for the wait queues, so it make less sense that swake_up() and
swake_up_all() do this on their own.
This patch then removes the lockless swait_active() check in swake_up()
and swake_up_all().

It appears as though the addition of the PID namespace did not update
the output code for /proc/*/sched, which resulted in it providing PIDs
that were not self-consistent with the /proc mount. This additionally
made it trivial to detect whether a process was inside &init_pid_ns from
userspace, making container detection trivial:
https://github.com/jessfraz/amicontained
This leads to situations such as:
% unshare -pmf
% mount -t proc proc /proc
% head -n1 /proc/1/sched
head (10047, #threads: 1)
Fix this by just using task_pid_nr_ns for the output of /proc/*/sched.
All of the other uses of task_pid_nr in kernel/sched/debug.c are from a
sysctl context and thus don't need to be namespaced.

init_idle_bootup_task( ) is called in rest_init( ) to switch
the scheduling class of the boot thread to the idle class.
the function only sets:
idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class;
which has been set in init_idle() called by sched_init():
/*
* The idle tasks have their own, simple scheduling class:
*/
idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class;
We've already set the boot thread to idle class in
start_kernel()->sched_init()->init_idle()
so it's unnecessary to set it again in

cpudl_find() users are only interested in knowing if suitable CPU(s)
were found or not (and then they look at later_mask to know which).

When cpudl_find() returns any among free_cpus, the CPU might not be
closer than others, considering sched domain. For example:
this_cpu: 15
free_cpus: 0, 1,..., 14 (== later_mask)
best_cpu: 0
topology:
0 --+
+--+
1 --+ |
+-- ... --+
2 --+ | |
+--+ |
3 --+ |
... ...
12 --+ |
+--+ |
13 --+ | |
+-- ... -+
14 --+ |
+--+
15 --+
In this case, it would be best to select 14 since it's a free CPU and
closest to 15 (this_cpu). However, currently the code selects 0 (best_cpu)
even though that's just any among free_cpus. Fix it.
This (re)aligns the deadline behaviour with the rt behaviour.

Running 80 tasks in the same group, or as threads of the same process,
results in the memory getting scanned 80x as fast as it would be if a
single task was using the memory.
This really hurts some workloads.
Scale the scan period by the number of tasks in the numa group, and
the shared / private ratio, so the average rate at which memory in
the group is scanned corresponds roughly to the rate at which a single
task would scan its memory.

The comment above update_task_scan_period() says the scan period should
be increased (scanning slows down) if the majority of memory accesses
are on the local node, or if the majority of the page accesses are
shared with other tasks.
However, with the current code, all a high ratio of shared accesses
does is slow down the rate at which scanning is made faster.
This patch changes things so either lots of shared accesses or
lots of local accesses will slow down scanning, and numa scanning
is sped up only when there are lots of private faults on remote
memory pages.

The running state is a subset of runnable state which means that running
can't be set if runnable (weight) is cleared. There are corner cases
where the current sched_entity has been already dequeued but cfs_rq->curr
has not been updated yet and still points to the dequeued sched_entity.
If ___update_load_avg() is called at that time, weight will be 0 and running
will be set which is not possible.
This case happens during pick_next_task_fair() when a cfs_rq becomes idles.
The current sched_entity has been dequeued so se->on_rq is cleared and
cfs_rq->weight is null. But cfs_rq->curr still points to se (it will be
cleared when picking the idle thread). Because the cfs_rq becomes idle,
idle_balance() is called and ends up to call update_blocked_averages()
with these wrong running and runnable states.
Add a test in ___update_load_avg() to correct the running state in this case.

weighted_cpuload() uses the cpu number passed to it get pointer to the
runqueue. Almost all callers of weighted_cpuload() already have the rq
pointer with them and can send that directly to weighted_cpuload(). In
some cases the callers actually get the CPU number by doing cpu_of(rq).
It would be simpler to pass rq to weighted_cpuload().

For SMP systems, update_load_avg() calls the cpufreq update util
handlers only for the top level cfs_rq (i.e. rq->cfs).
But that is not the case for UP systems. update_load_avg() calls util
handler for any cfs_rq for which it is called. This would result in way
too many calls from the scheduler to the cpufreq governors when
CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is enabled.
Reduce the frequency of these calls by copying the behavior from the SMP
case, i.e. Only call util handlers for the top level cfs_rq.

CPUFREQ_ENTRY_INVALID is a special symbol which is used to specify that
an entry in the cpufreq table is invalid. But using it outside of the
scope of the cpufreq table looks a bit incorrect.
We can represent an invalid frequency by writing it as 0 instead if we
need. Note that it is already done that way for the return value of the
->get() callback.
Lets do the same for ->fast_switch() and not use CPUFREQ_ENTRY_INVALID
outside of the scope of cpufreq table.
Also update the comment over cpufreq_driver_fast_switch() to clearly
mention what this returns.
None of the drivers return CPUFREQ_ENTRY_INVALID as of now from
->fast_switch() callback and so we don't need to update any of those.

With Android UI and benchmarks the latency of cpufreq response to
certain scheduling events can become very critical. Currently, callbacks
into cpufreq governors are only made from the scheduler if the target
CPU of the event is the same as the current CPU. This means there are
certain situations where a target CPU may not run the cpufreq governor
for some time.
One testcase to show this behavior is where a task starts running on
CPU0, then a new task is also spawned on CPU0 by a task on CPU1. If the
system is configured such that the new tasks should receive maximum
demand initially, this should result in CPU0 increasing frequency
immediately. But because of the above mentioned limitation though, this
does not occur.
This patch updates the scheduler core to call the cpufreq callbacks for
remote CPUs as well.
The schedutil, ondemand and conservative governors are updated to
process cpufreq utilization update hooks called for remote CPUs where
the remote CPU is managed by the cpufreq policy of the local CPU.
The intel_pstate driver is updated to always reject remote callbacks.
This is tested with couple of usecases (Android: hackbench, recentfling,
galleryfling, vellamo, Ubuntu: hackbench) on ARM hikey board (64 bit
octa-core, single policy). Only galleryfling showed minor improvements,
while others didn't had much deviation.
The reason being that this patch only targets a corner case, where
following are required to be true to improve performance and that
doesn't happen too often with these tests:
- Task is migrated to another CPU.
- The task has high demand, and should take the target CPU to higher
OPPs.
- And the target CPU doesn't call into the cpufreq governor until the
next tick.
Based on initial work from Steve Muckle.

Per-cpu workqueues have been tripping CPU affinity sanity checks while
a CPU is being offlined. A per-cpu kworker ends up running on a CPU
which isn't its target CPU while the CPU is online but inactive.
While the scheduler allows kthreads to wake up on an online but
inactive CPU, it doesn't allow a running kthread to be migrated to
such a CPU, which leads to an odd situation where setting affinity on
a sleeping and running kthread leads to different results.
Each mem-reclaim workqueue has one rescuer which guarantees forward
progress and the rescuer needs to bind itself to the CPU which needs
help in making forward progress; however, due to the above issue,
while set_cpus_allowed_ptr() succeeds, the rescuer doesn't end up on
the correct CPU if the CPU is in the process of going offline,
tripping the sanity check and executing the work item on the wrong
CPU.
This patch updates __migrate_task() so that kthreads can be migrated
into an inactive but online CPU.

Currently the iowait_boost feature in schedutil makes the frequency
go to max on iowait wakeups. This feature was added to handle a case
that Peter described where the throughput of operations involving
continuous I/O requests [1] is reduced due to running at a lower
frequency, however the lower throughput itself causes utilization to
be low and hence causing frequency to be low hence its "stuck".
Instead of going to max, its also possible to achieve the same effect
by ramping up to max if there are repeated in_iowait wakeups
happening. This patch is an attempt to do that. We start from a lower
frequency (policy->min) and double the boost for every consecutive
iowait update until we reach the maximum iowait boost frequency
(iowait_boost_max).
I ran a synthetic test (continuous O_DIRECT writes in a loop) on an
x86 machine with intel_pstate in passive mode using schedutil. In
this test the iowait_boost value ramped from 800MHz to 4GHz in 60ms.
The patch achieves the desired improved throughput as the existing
behavior.

governor currently, and this field describes how fast the driver wants
the cpufreq governor to change CPUs frequency. It should rather be a

dependency here.
Create a new helper cpufreq_policy_transition_delay_us() to get the

With a shared policy in place, when one of the CPUs in the policy is
hotplugged out and then brought back online, sugov_stop() and
sugov_start() are called in order.
sugov_stop() removes utilization hooks for each CPU in the policy and
does nothing else in the for_each_cpu() loop. sugov_start() on the
other hand iterates through the CPUs in the policy and re-initializes
the per-cpu structure _and_ adds the utilization hook. This implies
that the scheduler is allowed to invoke a CPU's utilization update
hook when the rest of the per-cpu structures have yet to be
re-inited.
Apart from some strange values in tracepoints this doesn't cause a
problem, but if we do end up accessing a pointer from the per-cpu
sugov_cpu structure somewhere in the sugov_update_shared() path,
we will likely see crashes since the memset for another CPU in the
policy is free to race with sugov_update_shared from the CPU that is
ready to go. So let's fix this now to first init all per-cpu
structures, and then add the per-cpu utilization update hooks all at
once.

If load_balance() fails to migrate any tasks because all tasks were
affined, load_balance() removes the source CPU from consideration and
attempts to redo and balance among the new subset of CPUs.
There is a bug in this code path where the algorithm considers all active
CPUs in the system (minus the source that was just masked out). This is
not valid for two reasons: some active CPUs may not be in the current
scheduling domain and one of the active CPUs is dst_cpu. These CPUs should
not be considered, as we cannot pull load from them.
Instead of failing out of load_balance(), we may end up redoing the search
with no valid CPUs and incorrectly concluding the domain is balanced.
Additionally, if the group_imbalance flag was just set, it may also be
incorrectly unset, thus the flag will not be seen by other CPUs in future
load_balance() runs as that algorithm intends.
Fix the check by removing CPUs not in the current domain and the dst_cpu
from considertation, thus limiting the evaluation to valid remaining CPUs
from which load might be migrated.

Currently the cputime source used by vtime is jiffies. When we cross
a context boundary and jiffies have changed since the last snapshot, the
pending cputime is accounted to the switching out context.
This system works ok if the ticks are not aligned across CPUs. If they
instead are aligned (ie: all fire at the same time) and the CPUs run in
userspace, the jiffies change is only observed on tick exit and therefore
the user cputime is accounted as system cputime. This is because the
CPU that maintains timekeeping fires its tick at the same time as the
others. It updates jiffies in the middle of the tick and the other CPUs
see that update on IRQ exit:
CPU 0 (timekeeper) CPU 1
------------------- -------------
jiffies = N
... run in userspace for a jiffy
tick entry tick entry (sees jiffies = N)
set jiffies = N + 1
tick exit tick exit (sees jiffies = N + 1)
account 1 jiffy as stime
Fix this with using a nanosec clock source instead of jiffies. The
cputime is then accumulated and flushed everytime the pending delta
reaches a jiffy in order to mitigate the accounting overhead.
[ fweisbec: changelog, rebase on struct vtime, field renames, add delta
on cputime readers, keep idle vtime as-is (low overhead accounting),
harmonize clock sources. ]
