Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker:
"Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never
execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled
by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations.
Affinity here is a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and
can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through
kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to
handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a
correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node.
This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in
terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this
category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and
CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so
that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the
node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity
doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its
own ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following
API changes:
- kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread
to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called
right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred
affinity different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to
the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time
or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:
- Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of
kthread_run_on_cpu()
- Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last
resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware
- Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always
called before the first kthread wake up.
- Default affine kthread to its preferred node.
- Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc
affinity implementation
- Implement kthreads preferred affinity
- Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style
- Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity
implementation"
