2018-11-04sched/core: Take the hotplug lock in sched_init_smp()Valentin Schneider
When running on linux-next (8c60c36d0b8c ("Add linux-next specific files for 20181019")) + CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y on a big.LITTLE system (e.g. Juno or HiKey960), we get the following report: [ 0.748225] Call trace: [ 0.750685] lockdep_assert_cpus_held+0x30/0x40 [ 0.755236] static_key_enable_cpuslocked+0x20/0xc8 [ 0.760137] build_sched_domains+0x1034/0x1108 [ 0.764601] sched_init_domains+0x68/0x90 [ 0.768628] sched_init_smp+0x30/0x80 [ 0.772309] kernel_init_freeable+0x278/0x51c [ 0.776685] kernel_init+0x10/0x108 [ 0.780190] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18 The static_key in question is 'sched_asym_cpucapacity' introduced by commit: df054e8445a4 ("sched/topology: Add static_key for asymmetric CPU capacity optimizations") In this particular case, we enable it because smp_prepare_cpus() will end up fetching the capacity-dmips-mhz entry from the devicetree, so we already have some asymmetry detected when entering sched_init_smp(). This didn't get detected in tip/sched/core because we were missing: commit cb538267ea1e ("jump_label/lockdep: Assert we hold the hotplug lock for _cpuslocked() operations") Calls to build_sched_domains() post sched_init_smp() will hold the hotplug lock, it just so happens that this very first call is a special case. As stated by a comment in sched_init_smp(), "There's no userspace yet to cause hotplug operations" so this is a harmless warning. However, to both respect the semantics of underlying callees and make lockdep happy, take the hotplug lock in sched_init_smp(). This also satisfies the comment atop sched_init_domains() that says "Callers must hold the hotplug lock".

2018-10-26psi: cgroup supportJohannes Weiner
On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health, fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others. This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups. In kernels with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure, and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only the tasks inside the cgroup.

2018-10-26psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IOJohannes Weiner
When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

2018-10-25cpuidle: menu: Remove get_loadavg() from the performance multiplierDaniel Lezcano
The function get_loadavg() returns almost always zero. To be more precise, statistically speaking for a total of 1023379 times passing in the function, the load is equal to zero 1020728 times, greater than 100, 610 times, the remaining is between 0 and 5. In 2011, the get_loadavg() was removed from the Android tree because of the above [1]. At this time, the load was: unsigned long this_cpu_load(void) { struct rq *this = this_rq(); return this->cpu_load[0]; } In 2014, the code was changed by commit 372ba8cb46b2 (cpuidle: menu: Lookup CPU runqueues less) and the load is: void get_iowait_load(unsigned long *nr_waiters, unsigned long *load) { struct rq *rq = this_rq(); *nr_waiters = atomic_read(&rq->nr_iowait); *load = rq->load.weight; } with the same result. Both measurements show using the load in this code path does no matter anymore. Removing it.

2018-10-22x86/stackprotector: Remove the call to boot_init_stack_canary() from ↵Christophe Leroy
cpu_startup_entry() The following commit: d7880812b359 ("idle: Add the stack canary init to cpu_startup_entry()") ... added an x86 specific boot_init_stack_canary() call to the generic cpu_startup_entry() as a temporary hack, with the intention to remove the #ifdef CONFIG_X86 later. More than 5 years later let's finally realize that plan! :-) While implementing stack protector support for PowerPC, we found that calling boot_init_stack_canary() is also needed for PowerPC which uses per task (TLS) stack canary like the X86. However, calling boot_init_stack_canary() would break architectures using a global stack canary (ARM, SH, MIPS and XTENSA). Instead of modifying the #ifdef CONFIG_X86 to an even messier: #if defined(CONFIG_X86) || defined(CONFIG_PPC) PowerPC implemented the call to boot_init_stack_canary() in the function calling cpu_startup_entry(). Let's try the same cleanup on the x86 side as well. On x86 we have two functions calling cpu_startup_entry(): - start_secondary() - cpu_bringup_and_idle() start_secondary() already calls boot_init_stack_canary(), so it's good, and this patch adds the call to boot_init_stack_canary() in cpu_bringup_and_idle(). I.e. now x86 catches up to the rest of the world and the ugly init sequence in init/main.c can be removed from cpu_startup_entry(). As a final benefit we can also remove the <linux/stackprotector.h> dependency from <linux/sched.h>.

2018-10-11sched/fair: Fix throttle_list starvation with low CFS quotaPhil Auld
With a very low cpu.cfs_quota_us setting, such as the minimum of 1000, distribute_cfs_runtime may not empty the throttled_list before it runs out of runtime to distribute. In that case, due to the change from c06f04c7048 to put throttled entries at the head of the list, later entries on the list will starve. Essentially, the same X processes will get pulled off the list, given CPU time and then, when expired, get put back on the head of the list where distribute_cfs_runtime will give runtime to the same set of processes leaving the rest. Fix the issue by setting a bit in struct cfs_bandwidth when distribute_cfs_runtime is running, so that the code in throttle_cfs_rq can decide to put the throttled entry on the tail or the head of the list. The bit is set/cleared by the callers of distribute_cfs_runtime while they hold cfs_bandwidth->lock. This is easy to reproduce with a handful of CPU consumers. I use 'crash' on the live system. In some cases you can simply look at the throttled list and see the later entries are not changing: crash> list cfs_rq.throttled_list -H 0xffff90b54f6ade40 -s cfs_rq.runtime_remaining | paste - - | awk '{print $1" "$4}' | pr -t -n3 1 ffff90b56cb2d200 -976050 2 ffff90b56cb2cc00 -484925 3 ffff90b56cb2bc00 -658814 4 ffff90b56cb2ba00 -275365 5 ffff90b166a45600 -135138 6 ffff90b56cb2da00 -282505 7 ffff90b56cb2e000 -148065 8 ffff90b56cb2fa00 -872591 9 ffff90b56cb2c000 -84687 10 ffff90b56cb2f000 -87237 11 ffff90b166a40a00 -164582 crash> list cfs_rq.throttled_list -H 0xffff90b54f6ade40 -s cfs_rq.runtime_remaining | paste - - | awk '{print $1" "$4}' | pr -t -n3 1 ffff90b56cb2d200 -994147 2 ffff90b56cb2cc00 -306051 3 ffff90b56cb2bc00 -961321 4 ffff90b56cb2ba00 -24490 5 ffff90b166a45600 -135138 6 ffff90b56cb2da00 -282505 7 ffff90b56cb2e000 -148065 8 ffff90b56cb2fa00 -872591 9 ffff90b56cb2c000 -84687 10 ffff90b56cb2f000 -87237 11 ffff90b166a40a00 -164582 Sometimes it is easier to see by finding a process getting starved and looking at the sched_info: crash> task ffff8eb765994500 sched_info PID: 7800 TASK: ffff8eb765994500 CPU: 16 COMMAND: "cputest" sched_info = { pcount = 8, run_delay = 697094208, last_arrival = 240260125039, last_queued = 240260327513 }, crash> task ffff8eb765994500 sched_info PID: 7800 TASK: ffff8eb765994500 CPU: 16 COMMAND: "cputest" sched_info = { pcount = 8, run_delay = 697094208, last_arrival = 240260125039, last_queued = 240260327513 }, Signed-off-by: Phil Auld <pauld@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Ben Segall <bsegall@google.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: c06f04c70489 ("sched: Fix potential near-infinite distribute_cfs_runtime() loop") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181008143639.GA4019@pauld.bos.csb Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

2018-10-02sched/numa: Migrate pages to local nodes quicker early in the lifetime of a taskMel Gorman
Automatic NUMA Balancing uses a multi-stage pass to decide whether a page should migrate to a local node. This filter avoids excessive ping-ponging if a page is shared or used by threads that migrate cross-node frequently. Threads inherit both page tables and the preferred node ID from the parent. This means that threads can trigger hinting faults earlier than a new task which delays scanning for a number of seconds. As it can be load balanced very early in its lifetime there can be an unnecessary delay before it starts migrating thread-local data. This patch migrates private pages faster early in the lifetime of a thread using the sequence counter as an identifier of new tasks. With this patch applied, STREAM performance is the same as 4.17 even though processes are not spread cross-node prematurely. Other workloads showed a mix of minor gains and losses. This is somewhat expected most workloads are not very sensitive to the starting conditions of a process. 4.19.0-rc5 4.19.0-rc5 4.17.0 numab-v1r1 fastmigrate-v1r1 vanilla MB/sec copy 43298.52 ( 0.00%) 47335.46 ( 9.32%) 47219.24 ( 9.06%) MB/sec scale 30115.06 ( 0.00%) 32568.12 ( 8.15%) 32527.56 ( 8.01%) MB/sec add 32825.12 ( 0.00%) 36078.94 ( 9.91%) 35928.02 ( 9.45%) MB/sec triad 32549.52 ( 0.00%) 35935.94 ( 10.40%) 35969.88 ( 10.51%) Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@surriel.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Jirka Hladky <jhladky@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Linux-MM <linux-mm@kvack.org> Cc: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181001100525.29789-3-mgorman@techsingularity.net Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2018-10-02sched/fair: Remove setting task's se->runnable_weight during PELT updateDietmar Eggemann
A CFS (SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_BATCH or SCHED_IDLE policy) task's se->runnable_weight must always be in sync with its se->load.weight. se->runnable_weight is set to se->load.weight when the task is forked (init_entity_runnable_average()) or reniced (reweight_entity()). There are two cases in set_load_weight() which since they currently only set se->load.weight could lead to a situation in which se->load.weight is different to se->runnable_weight for a CFS task: (1) A task switches to SCHED_IDLE. (2) A SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_RR or SCHED_DEADLINE task which has been reniced (during which only its static priority gets set) switches to SCHED_OTHER or SCHED_BATCH. Set se->runnable_weight to se->load.weight in these two cases to prevent this. This eliminates the need to explicitly set it to se->load.weight during PELT updates in the CFS scheduler fastpath.

2018-10-02sched/fair: Disable LB_BIAS by defaultDietmar Eggemann
LB_BIAS allows the adjustment on how conservative load should be balanced. The rq->cpu_load[idx] array is used for this functionality. It contains weighted CPU load decayed average values over different intervals (idx = 1..4). Idx = 0 is the weighted CPU load itself. The values are updated during scheduler_tick, before idle balance and at nohz exit. There are 5 different types of idx's per sched domain (sd). Each of them is used to index into the rq->cpu_load[idx] array in a specific scenario (busy, idle and newidle for load balancing, forkexec for wake-up slow-path load balancing and wake for affine wakeup based on weight). Only the sd idx's for busy and idle load balancing are set to 2,3 or 1,2 respectively. All the other sd idx's are set to 0. Conservative load balancing is achieved for sd idx's >= 1 by using the min/max (source_load()/target_load()) value between the current weighted CPU load and the rq->cpu_load[sd idx -1] for the busiest(idlest)/local CPU load in load balancing or vice versa in the wake-up slow-path load balancing. There is no conservative balancing for sd idx = 0 since only current weighted CPU load is used in this case. It is very likely that LB_BIAS' influence on load balancing can be neglected (see test results below). This is further supported by: (1) Weighted CPU load today is by itself a decayed average value (PELT) (cfs_rq->avg->runnable_load_avg) and not the instantaneous load (rq->load.weight) it was when LB_BIAS was introduced. (2) Sd imbalance_pct is used for CPU_NEWLY_IDLE and CPU_NOT_IDLE (relate to sd's newidle and busy idx) in find_busiest_group() when comparing busiest and local avg load to make load balancing even more conservative. (3) The sd forkexec and newidle idx are always set to 0 so there is no adjustment on how conservatively load balancing is done here. (4) Affine wakeup based on weight (wake_affine_weight()) will not be impacted since the sd wake idx is always set to 0. Let's disable LB_BIAS by default for a few kernel releases to make sure that no workload and no scheduler topology is affected. The benefit of being able to remove the LB_BIAS dependency from source_load() and target_load() is that the entire rq->cpu_load[idx] code could be removed in this case. It is really hard to say if there is no regression w/o testing this with a lot of different workloads on a lot of different platforms, especially NUMA machines. The following 104 LKP (Linux Kernel Performance) tests were run by the 0-Day guys mostly on multi-socket hosts with a larger number of logical cpus (88, 192). The base for the test was commit b3dae109fa89 ("sched/swait: Rename to exclusive") (tip/sched/core v4.18-rc1). Only 2 out of the 104 tests had a significant change in one of the metrics (fsmark/1x-1t-1HDD-btrfs-nfsv4-4M-60G-NoSync-performance +7% files_per_sec, unixbench/300s-100%-syscall-performance -11% score).

2018-10-02sched/numa: Limit the conditions where scan period is resetMel Gorman
migrate_task_rq_fair() resets the scan rate for NUMA balancing on every cross-node migration. In the event of excessive load balancing due to saturation, this may result in the scan rate being pegged at maximum and further overloading the machine. This patch only resets the scan if NUMA balancing is active, a preferred node has been selected and the task is being migrated from the preferred node as these are the most harmful. For example, a migration to the preferred node does not justify a faster scan rate. Similarly, a migration between two nodes that are not preferred is probably bouncing due to over-saturation of the machine. In that case, scanning faster and trapping more NUMA faults will further overload the machine.

2018-10-02sched/numa: Reset scan rate whenever task moves across nodesSrikar Dronamraju
Currently task scan rate is reset when NUMA balancer migrates the task to a different node. If NUMA balancer initiates a swap, reset is only applicable to the task that initiates the swap. Similarly no scan rate reset is done if the task is migrated across nodes by traditional load balancer. Instead move the scan reset to the migrate_task_rq. This ensures the task moved out of its preferred node, either gets back to its preferred node quickly or finds a new preferred node. Doing so, would be fair to all tasks migrating across nodes.

2018-10-02sched/numa: Stop multiple tasks from moving to the CPU at the same timeSrikar Dronamraju
Task migration under NUMA balancing can happen in parallel. More than one task might choose to migrate to the same CPU at the same time. This can result in: - During task swap, choosing a task that was not part of the evaluation. - During task swap, task which just got moved into its preferred node, moving to a completely different node. - During task swap, task failing to move to the preferred node, will have to wait an extra interval for the next migrate opportunity. - During task movement, multiple task movements can cause load imbalance. This problem is more likely if there are more cores per node or more nodes in the system. Use a per run-queue variable to check if NUMA-balance is active on the run-queue.

2018-09-10sched/core: Disable SD_PREFER_SIBLING on asymmetric CPU capacity domainsMorten Rasmussen
The 'prefer sibling' sched_domain flag is intended to encourage spreading tasks to sibling sched_domain to take advantage of more caches and core for SMT systems. It has recently been changed to be on all non-NUMA topology level. However, spreading across domains with CPU capacity asymmetry isn't desirable, e.g. spreading from high capacity to low capacity CPUs even if high capacity CPUs aren't overutilized might give access to more cache but the CPU will be slower and possibly lead to worse overall throughput. To prevent this, we need to remove SD_PREFER_SIBLING on the sched_domain level immediately below SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY.

2018-09-10sched/fair: Don't move tasks to lower capacity CPUs unless necessaryChris Redpath
When lower capacity CPUs are load balancing and considering to pull something from a higher capacity group, we should not pull tasks from a CPU with only one task running as this is guaranteed to impede progress for that task. If there is more than one task running, load balance in the higher capacity group would have already made any possible moves to resolve imbalance and we should make better use of system compute capacity by moving a task if we still have more than one running.

2018-09-10sched/fair: Set rq->rd->overload when misfitValentin Schneider
Idle balance is a great opportunity to pull a misfit task. However, there are scenarios where misfit tasks are present but idle balance is prevented by the overload flag. A good example of this is a workload of n identical tasks. Let's suppose we have a 2+2 Arm big.LITTLE system. We then spawn 4 fairly CPU-intensive tasks - for the sake of simplicity let's say they are just CPU hogs, even when running on big CPUs. They are identical tasks, so on an SMP system they should all end at (roughly) the same time. However, in our case the LITTLE CPUs are less performing than the big CPUs, so tasks running on the LITTLEs will have a longer completion time. This means that the big CPUs will complete their work earlier, at which point they should pull the tasks from the LITTLEs. What we want to happen is summarized as follows: a,b,c,d are our CPU-hogging tasks _ signifies idling LITTLE_0 | a a a a _ _ LITTLE_1 | b b b b _ _ ---------|------------- big_0 | c c c c a a big_1 | d d d d b b ^ ^ Tasks end on the big CPUs, idle balance happens and the misfit tasks are pulled straight away This however won't happen, because currently the overload flag is only set when there is any CPU that has more than one runnable task - which may very well not be the case here if our CPU-hogging workload is all there is to run. As such, this commit sets the overload flag in update_sg_lb_stats when a group is flagged as having a misfit task.

2018-09-10sched/fair: Kick nohz balance if rq->misfit_task_loadValentin Schneider
There already are a few conditions in nohz_kick_needed() to ensure a nohz kick is triggered, but they are not enough for some misfit task scenarios. Excluding asym packing, those are: - rq->nr_running >=2: Not relevant here because we are running a misfit task, it needs to be migrated regardless and potentially through active balance. - sds->nr_busy_cpus > 1: If there is only the misfit task being run on a group of low capacity CPUs, this will be evaluated to False. - rq->cfs.h_nr_running >=1 && check_cpu_capacity(): Not relevant here, misfit task needs to be migrated regardless of rt/IRQ pressure As such, this commit adds an rq->misfit_task_load condition to trigger a nohz kick. The idea to kick a nohz balance for misfit tasks originally came from Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org>, and a similar patch was submitted for the Android Common Kernel - see: https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/eas-dev/2016-September/000551.html Signed-off-by: Valentin Schneider <valentin.schneider@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: dietmar.eggemann@arm.com Cc: gaku.inami.xh@renesas.com Cc: vincent.guittot@linaro.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1530699470-29808-6-git-send-email-morten.rasmussen@arm.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2018-09-10sched/fair: Consider misfit tasks when load-balancingMorten Rasmussen
On asymmetric CPU capacity systems load intensive tasks can end up on CPUs that don't suit their compute demand. In this scenarios 'misfit' tasks should be migrated to CPUs with higher compute capacity to ensure better throughput. group_misfit_task indicates this scenario, but tweaks to the load-balance code are needed to make the migrations happen. Misfit balancing only makes sense between a source group of lower per-CPU capacity and destination group of higher compute capacity. Otherwise, misfit balancing is ignored. group_misfit_task has lowest priority so any imbalance due to overload is dealt with first. The modifications are: 1. Only pick a group containing misfit tasks as the busiest group if the destination group has higher capacity and has spare capacity. 2. When the busiest group is a 'misfit' group, skip the usual average load and group capacity checks. 3. Set the imbalance for 'misfit' balancing sufficiently high for a task to be pulled ignoring average load. 4. Pick the CPU with the highest misfit load as the source CPU. 5. If the misfit task is alone on the source CPU, go for active balancing.

2018-09-10sched/fair: Add sched_group per-CPU max capacityMorten Rasmussen
The current sg->min_capacity tracks the lowest per-CPU compute capacity available in the sched_group when rt/irq pressure is taken into account. Minimum capacity isn't the ideal metric for tracking if a sched_group needs offloading to another sched_group for some scenarios, e.g. a sched_group with multiple CPUs if only one is under heavy pressure. Tracking maximum capacity isn't perfect either but a better choice for some situations as it indicates that the sched_group definitely compute capacity constrained either due to rt/irq pressure on all CPUs or asymmetric CPU capacities (e.g. big.LITTLE).

2018-09-10sched/fair: Add 'group_misfit_task' load-balance typeMorten Rasmussen
To maximize throughput in systems with asymmetric CPU capacities (e.g. ARM big.LITTLE) load-balancing has to consider task and CPU utilization as well as per-CPU compute capacity when load-balancing in addition to the current average load based load-balancing policy. Tasks with high utilization that are scheduled on a lower capacity CPU need to be identified and migrated to a higher capacity CPU if possible to maximize throughput. To implement this additional policy an additional group_type (load-balance scenario) is added: 'group_misfit_task'. This represents scenarios where a sched_group has one or more tasks that are not suitable for its per-CPU capacity. 'group_misfit_task' is only considered if the system is not overloaded or imbalanced ('group_imbalanced' or 'group_overloaded'). Identifying misfit tasks requires the rq lock to be held. To avoid taking remote rq locks to examine source sched_groups for misfit tasks, each CPU is responsible for tracking misfit tasks themselves and update the rq->misfit_task flag. This means checking task utilization when tasks are scheduled and on sched_tick.

2018-09-10sched/topology: Add SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag detectionMorten Rasmussen
The SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY sched_domain flag is supposed to mark the sched_domain in the hierarchy where all CPU capacities are visible for any CPU's point of view on asymmetric CPU capacity systems. The scheduler can then take to take capacity asymmetry into account when balancing at this level. It also serves as an indicator for how wide task placement heuristics have to search to consider all available CPU capacities as asymmetric systems might often appear symmetric at smallest level(s) of the sched_domain hierarchy. The flag has been around for while but so far only been set by out-of-tree code in Android kernels. One solution is to let each architecture provide the flag through a custom sched_domain topology array and associated mask and flag functions. However, SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY is special in the sense that it depends on the capacity and presence of all CPUs in the system, i.e. when hotplugging all CPUs out except those with one particular CPU capacity the flag should disappear even if the sched_domains don't collapse. Similarly, the flag is affected by cpusets where load-balancing is turned off. Detecting when the flags should be set therefore depends not only on topology information but also the cpuset configuration and hotplug state. The arch code doesn't have easy access to the cpuset configuration. Instead, this patch implements the flag detection in generic code where cpusets and hotplug state is already taken care of. All the arch is responsible for is to implement arch_scale_cpu_capacity() and force a full rebuild of the sched_domain hierarchy if capacities are updated, e.g. later in the boot process when cpufreq has initialized.

2018-09-10sched/fair: Fix load_balance redo for !imbalanceVincent Guittot
It can happen that load_balance() finds a busiest group and then a busiest rq but the calculated imbalance is in fact 0. In such situation, detach_tasks() returns immediately and lets the flag LBF_ALL_PINNED set. The busiest CPU is then wrongly assumed to have pinned tasks and removed from the load balance mask. then, we redo a load balance without the busiest CPU. This creates wrong load balance situation and generates wrong task migration. If the calculated imbalance is 0, it's useless to try to find a busiest rq as no task will be migrated and we can return immediately. This situation can happen with heterogeneous system or smp system when RT tasks are decreasing the capacity of some CPUs.
