commit 0ac9b1c21874d2490331233b3242085f8151e166 upstream.
Currently, group entity load-weights are initialized to zero. This
admits some races with respect to the first time they are re-weighted in
earlty use. ( Let g[x] denote the se for "g" on cpu "x". )
Suppose that we have root->a and that a enters a throttled state,
immediately followed by a[0]->t1 (the only task running on cpu[0])
blocking:
put_prev_task(group_cfs_rq(a[0]), t1)
put_prev_entity(..., t1)
check_cfs_rq_runtime(group_cfs_rq(a[0]))
throttle_cfs_rq(group_cfs_rq(a[0]))
Then, before unthrottling occurs, let a[0]->b[0]->t2 wake for the first
time:
enqueue_task_fair(rq[0], t2)
enqueue_entity(group_cfs_rq(b[0]), t2)
enqueue_entity_load_avg(group_cfs_rq(b[0]), t2)
account_entity_enqueue(group_cfs_ra(b[0]), t2)
update_cfs_shares(group_cfs_rq(b[0]))
< skipped because b is part of a throttled hierarchy >
enqueue_entity(group_cfs_rq(a[0]), b[0])
...
We now have b[0] enqueued, yet group_cfs_rq(a[0])->load.weight == 0
which violates invariants in several code-paths. Eliminate the
possibility of this by initializing group entity weight.

commit 927b54fccbf04207ec92f669dce6806848cbec7d upstream.
__start_cfs_bandwidth calls hrtimer_cancel while holding rq->lock,
waiting for the hrtimer to finish. However, if sched_cfs_period_timer
runs for another loop iteration, the hrtimer can attempt to take
rq->lock, resulting in deadlock.
Fix this by ensuring that cfs_b->timer_active is cleared only if the
_latest_ call to do_sched_cfs_period_timer is returning as idle. Then
__start_cfs_bandwidth can just call hrtimer_try_to_cancel and wait for
that to succeed or timer_active == 1.

commit db06e78cc13d70f10877e0557becc88ab3ad2be8 upstream.
hrtimer_expires_remaining does not take internal hrtimer locks and thus
must be guarded against concurrent __hrtimer_start_range_ns (but
returning HRTIMER_RESTART is safe). Use cfs_b->lock to make it safe.

commit 1ee14e6c8cddeeb8a490d7b54cd9016e4bb900b4 upstream.
When we transition cfs_bandwidth_used to false, any currently
throttled groups will incorrectly return false from cfs_rq_throttled.
While tg_set_cfs_bandwidth will unthrottle them eventually, currently
running code (including at least dequeue_task_fair and
distribute_cfs_runtime) will cause errors.
Fix this by turning off cfs_bandwidth_used only after unthrottling all
cfs_rqs.
Tested: toggle bandwidth back and forth on a loaded cgroup. Caused
crashes in minutes without the patch, hasn't crashed with it.

commit f9f9ffc237dd924f048204e8799da74f9ecf40cf upstream.
throttle_cfs_rq() doesn't check to make sure that period_timer is running,
and while update_curr/assign_cfs_runtime does, a concurrently running
period_timer on another cpu could cancel itself between this cpu's
update_curr and throttle_cfs_rq(). If there are no other cfs_rqs running
in the tg to restart the timer, this causes the cfs_rq to be stranded
forever.
Fix this by calling __start_cfs_bandwidth() in throttle if the timer is
inactive.
(Also add some sched_debug lines for cfs_bandwidth.)
Tested: make a run/sleep task in a cgroup, loop switching the cgroup
between 1ms/100ms quota and unlimited, checking for timer_active=0 and
throttled=1 as a failure. With the throttle_cfs_rq() change commented out
this fails, with the full patch it passes.

invalid ones
commit 6c9a27f5da9609fca46cb2b183724531b48f71ad upstream.
There is a small race between copy_process() and cgroup_attach_task()
where child->se.parent,cfs_rq points to invalid (old) ones.
parent doing fork() | someone moving the parent to another cgroup
-------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
copy_process()
+ dup_task_struct()
-> parent->se is copied to child->se.
se.parent,cfs_rq of them point to old ones.
cgroup_attach_task()
+ cgroup_task_migrate()
-> parent->cgroup is updated.
+ cpu_cgroup_attach()
+ sched_move_task()
+ task_move_group_fair()
+- set_task_rq()
-> se.parent,cfs_rq of parent
are updated.
+ cgroup_fork()
-> parent->cgroup is copied to child->cgroup. (*1)
+ sched_fork()
+ task_fork_fair()
-> se.parent,cfs_rq of child are accessed
while they point to old ones. (*2)
In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and cause a panic,
because it's new cgroup's refcount that is incremented at (*1),
so the old cgroup(and related data) can be freed before (*2).
In fact, a panic caused by this bug was originally caught in RHEL6.4.

continuously-running tasks
commit bf0bd948d1682e3996adc093b43021ed391983e6 upstream.
We typically update a task_group's shares within the dequeue/enqueue
path. However, continuously running tasks sharing a CPU are not
subject to these updates as they are only put/picked. Unfortunately,
when we reverted f269ae046 (in 17bc14b7), we lost the augmenting
periodic update that was supposed to account for this; resulting in a
potential loss of fairness.
To fix this, re-introduce the explicit update in
update_cfs_rq_blocked_load() [called via entity_tick()].

On my SMP platform which is made of 5 cores in 2 clusters, I
have the nr_busy_cpu field of sched_group_power struct that is
not null when the platform is fully idle - which makes the
scheduler unhappy.
The root cause is:
During the boot sequence, some CPUs reach the idle loop and set
their NOHZ_IDLE flag while waiting for others CPUs to boot. But
the nr_busy_cpus field is initialized later with the assumption
that all CPUs are in the busy state whereas some CPUs have
already set their NOHZ_IDLE flag.
More generally, the NOHZ_IDLE flag must be initialized when new
sched_domains are created in order to ensure that NOHZ_IDLE and
nr_busy_cpus are aligned.
This condition can be ensured by adding a synchronize_rcu()
between the destruction of old sched_domains and the creation of
new ones so the NOHZ_IDLE flag will not be updated with old
sched_domain once it has been initialized. But this solution
introduces a additionnal latency in the rebuild sequence that is
called during cpu hotplug.
As suggested by Frederic Weisbecker, another solution is to have
the same rcu lifecycle for both NOHZ_IDLE and sched_domain
struct. A new nohz_idle field is added to sched_domain so both
status and sched_domain will share the same RCU lifecycle and
will be always synchronized. In addition, there is no more need
to protect nohz_idle against concurrent access as it is only
modified by 2 exclusive functions called by local cpu.
This solution has been prefered to the creation of a new struct
with an extra pointer indirection for sched_domain.
The synchronization is done at the cost of :
- An additional indirection and a rcu_dereference for accessing nohz_idle.
- We use only the nohz_idle field of the top sched_domain.

Commit 88b8dac0 makes load_balance() consider other cpus in its
group. But, in that, there is no code for preventing to
re-select dst-cpu. So, same dst-cpu can be selected over and
over.
This patch add functionality to load_balance() in order to
exclude cpu which is selected once. We prevent to re-select
dst_cpu via env's cpus, so now, env's cpus is a candidate not
only for src_cpus, but also dst_cpus.
With this patch, we can remove lb_iterations and
max_lb_iterations, because we decide whether we can go ahead or
not via env's cpus.

Currently, LBF_ALL_PINNED is cleared after affinity check is
passed. So, if task migration is skipped by small load value or
small imbalance value in move_tasks(), we don't clear
LBF_ALL_PINNED. At last, we trigger 'redo' in load_balance().
Imbalance value is often so small that any tasks cannot be moved
to other cpus and, of course, this situation may be continued
after we change the target cpu. So this patch move up affinity
check code and clear LBF_ALL_PINNED before evaluating load value
in order to mitigate useless redoing overhead.
In addition, re-order some comments correctly.

Commit 88b8dac0 makes load_balance() consider other cpus in its
group, regardless of idle type. When we do NEWLY_IDLE balancing,
we should not consider it, because a motivation of NEWLY_IDLE
balancing is to turn this cpu to non idle state if needed. This
is not the case of other cpus. So, change code not to consider
other cpus for NEWLY_IDLE balancing.
With this patch, assign 'if (pulled_task) this_rq->idle_stamp =
0' in idle_balance() is corrected, because NEWLY_IDLE balancing
doesn't consider other cpus. Assigning to 'this_rq->idle_stamp'
is now valid.

The current update of the rq's load can be erroneous when RT
tasks are involved.
The update of the load of a rq that becomes idle, is done only
if the avg_idle is less than sysctl_sched_migration_cost. If RT
tasks and short idle duration alternate, the runnable_avg will
not be updated correctly and the time will be accounted as idle
time when a CFS task wakes up.
A new idle_enter function is called when the next task is the
idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as run time
in the load of the rq, whatever the average idle time is. The
function update_rq_runnable_avg is removed from idle_balance.
When a RT task is scheduled on an idle CPU, the update of the
rq's load is not done when the rq exit idle state because CFS's
functions are not called. Then, the idle_balance, which is
called just before entering the idle function, updates the rq's
load and makes the assumption that the elapsed time since the
last update, was only running time.
As a consequence, the rq's load of a CPU that only runs a
periodic RT task, is close to LOAD_AVG_MAX whatever the running
duration of the RT task is.
A new idle_exit function is called when the prev task is the
idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as idle time
in the rq's load.

A comment in function rebalance_domains() mentions
arch_init_sched_domains(), but that function does not exist
anymore. The proper function is init_sched_domains().

We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout
into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick
any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick,
idle dynticks, full dynticks.
As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions
need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order
to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure.
It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to
that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code
and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now.
So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and
CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ.
On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if
CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to
enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default.
But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into
a circular dependency:
1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select
CONFIG_NO_HZ
2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE
We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it
may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour.
So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option
which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks
(that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code)
and select it from their referring Kconfig.
Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ
to it for backward compatibility.

If the previous CPU is cache affine and idle, select it.
The current implementation simply traverses the sd_llc domain,
taking the first idle CPU encountered, which walks buddy pairs
hand in hand over the package, inflicting excruciating pain.

The caller of sched_sliced() should pass se.cfs_rq and se as the
arguments, however in sched_rr_get_interval() we gave it
rq.cfs_rq and se, which made the following computation obviously
wrong.
The change was introduced by commit:
77034937dc45 sched: fix crash in sys_sched_rr_get_interval()
... 5 years ago, while it had been the correct 'cfs_rq_of' before
the commit. The change seems to be irrelevant to the commit
msg, which was to return a 0 timeslice for tasks that are on an
idle runqueue. So I believe that was just a plain typo.

about it being potentially unused:

Marking it __maybe_unused shuts up the gcc warning and lets the

Pull Automatic NUMA Balancing bare-bones from Mel Gorman:
"There are three implementations for NUMA balancing, this tree
(balancenuma), numacore which has been developed in tip/master and
autonuma which is in aa.git.
In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because
its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about
scheduling. In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be
desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building
scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9.
The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are
mel: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108
mingo: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331
tglx: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437
srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397
The results are a mixed bag. In my own tests, balancenuma does
reasonably well. It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against
mainline. On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is
incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad
but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts. Thomas'
results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of
numacore or autonuma. Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a
large machine with imbalanced node sizes.
My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved
dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally.
We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of
migration even when it shows that overall performance is better.
There are also cases where it regresses. Of interest is that for
specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of
warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by
the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports. Recently I
reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with
NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of
this problem is. Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch
handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case. It's possible
numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration.
These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start
with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has
not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks."

Due to the fact that migrations are driven by the CPU a task is running
on there is no point tracking NUMA faults until one task runs on a new
node. This patch tracks the first node used by an address space. Until
it changes, PTE scanning is disabled and no NUMA hinting faults are
trapped. This should help workloads that are short-lived, do not care
about NUMA placement or have bound themselves to a single node.
This takes advantage of the logic in "mm: sched: numa: Implement slow
start for working set sampling" to delay when the checks are made. This
will take advantage of processes that set their CPU and node bindings
early in their lifetime. It will also potentially allow any initial load
balancing to take place.

of such a switch was and is very important when debugging problems

The PTE scanning rate and fault rates are two of the biggest sources of
system CPU overhead with automatic NUMA placement. Ideally a proper policy
would detect if a workload was properly placed, schedule and adjust the
PTE scanning rate accordingly. We do not track the necessary information
to do that but we at least know if we migrated or not.
This patch scans slower if a page was not migrated as the result of a
NUMA hinting fault up to sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_period_max which is
now higher than the previous default. Once every minute it will reset
the scanner in case of phase changes.
This is hilariously crude and the numbers are arbitrary. Workloads will
converge quite slowly in comparison to what a proper policy should be able
to do. On the plus side, we will chew up less CPU for workloads that have
no need for automatic balancing.

Currently the rate of scanning for an address space is controlled
by the individual tasks. The next scan is simply determined by
2*p->numa_scan_period.
The 2*p->numa_scan_period is arbitrary and never changes. At this point
there is still no proper policy that decides if a task or process is
properly placed. It just scans and assumes the next NUMA fault will
place it properly. As it is assumed that pages will get properly placed
over time, increase the scan window each time a fault is incurred. This
is a big assumption as noted in the comments.
It should be noted that changing to p->numa_scan_period will increase
system CPU usage because now the scanning rate has effectively doubled.
If that is a problem then the min_rate should be made 200ms instead of
restoring the 2* logic.

If there are a large number of NUMA hinting faults and all of them
are resulting in migrations it may indicate that memory is just
bouncing uselessly around. NUMA balancing cost is likely exceeding
any benefit from locality. Rate limit the PTE updates if the node
is migration rate-limited. As noted in the comments, this distorts
the NUMA faulting statistics.

Add a 1 second delay before starting to scan the working set of
a task and starting to balance it amongst nodes.
[ note that before the constant per task WSS sampling rate patch
the initial scan would happen much later still, in effect that
patch caused this regression. ]
The theory is that short-run tasks benefit very little from NUMA
placement: they come and go, and they better stick to the node
they were started on. As tasks mature and rebalance to other CPUs
and nodes, so does their NUMA placement have to change and so
does it start to matter more and more.
In practice this change fixes an observable kbuild regression:
# [ a perf stat --null --repeat 10 test of ten bzImage builds to /dev/shm ]
!NUMA:
45.291088843 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.40% )
45.154231752 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.36% )
+NUMA, no slow start:
46.172308123 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.30% )
46.343168745 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% )
+NUMA, 1 sec slow start:
45.224189155 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% )
45.160866532 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.17% )
and it also fixes an observable perf bench (hackbench) regression:
# perf stat --null --repeat 10 perf bench sched messaging
-NUMA:
-NUMA: 0.246225691 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.31% )
+NUMA no slow start: 0.252620063 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.13% )
+NUMA 1sec delay: 0.248076230 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.35% )
The implementation is simple and straightforward, most of the patch
deals with adding the /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing_scan_delay_ms tunable
knob.

Previously, to probe the working set of a task, we'd use
a very simple and crude method: mark all of its address
space PROT_NONE.
That method has various (obvious) disadvantages:
- it samples the working set at dissimilar rates,
giving some tasks a sampling quality advantage
over others.
- creates performance problems for tasks with very
large working sets
- over-samples processes with large address spaces but
which only very rarely execute
Improve that method by keeping a rotating offset into the
address space that marks the current position of the scan,
and advance it by a constant rate (in a CPU cycles execution
proportional manner). If the offset reaches the last mapped
address of the mm then it then it starts over at the first
address.
The per-task nature of the working set sampling functionality in this tree
allows such constant rate, per task, execution-weight proportional sampling
of the working set, with an adaptive sampling interval/frequency that
goes from once per 100ms up to just once per 8 seconds. The current
sampling volume is 256 MB per interval.
As tasks mature and converge their working set, so does the
sampling rate slow down to just a trickle, 256 MB per 8
seconds of CPU time executed.
This, beyond being adaptive, also rate-limits rarely
executing systems and does not over-sample on overloaded
systems.
[ In AutoNUMA speak, this patch deals with the effective sampling
rate of the 'hinting page fault'. AutoNUMA's scanning is
currently rate-limited, but it is also fundamentally
single-threaded, executing in the knuma_scand kernel thread,
so the limit in AutoNUMA is global and does not scale up with
the number of CPUs, nor does it scan tasks in an execution
proportional manner.
So the idea of rate-limiting the scanning was first implemented
in the AutoNUMA tree via a global rate limit. This patch goes
beyond that by implementing an execution rate proportional
working set sampling rate that is not implemented via a single
global scanning daemon. ]
[ Dan Carpenter pointed out a possible NULL pointer dereference in the
first version of this patch. ]

NOTE: This patch is based on "sched, numa, mm: Add fault driven
placement and migration policy" but as it throws away all the policy
to just leave a basic foundation I had to drop the signed-offs-by.
This patch creates a bare-bones method for setting PTEs pte_numa in the
context of the scheduler that when faulted later will be faulted onto the
node the CPU is running on. In itself this does nothing useful but any
placement policy will fundamentally depend on receiving hints on placement
from fault context and doing something intelligent about it.

This reverts commit f269ae0469fc882332bdfb5db15d3c1315fe2a10.
It turns out it causes a very noticeable interactivity regression with
CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP (test-case: "make -j32" of the kernel in a
terminal window, while scrolling in a browser - the autogrouping means
that the two end up in separate cgroups, and the browser should be
smooth as silk despite the high load).
Says Paul Turner:
"It seems that the update-throttling on the wake-side is reducing the
interactive tasks' ability to preempt. While I suspect the right
longer term answer here is force these updates only in the
cross-cgroup case; this is less trivial. For this release I believe
the right answer is either going to be a revert or restore the updates
on the enqueue-side."

While per-entity load-tracking is generally useful, beyond computing shares
distribution, e.g. runnable based load-balance (in progress), governors,
power-management, etc.
These facilities are not yet consumers of this data. This may be trivially
reverted when the information is required; but avoid paying the overhead for
calculations we will not use until then.

__update_entity_runnable_avg forms the core of maintaining an entity's runnable
load average. In this function we charge the accumulated run-time since last
update and handle appropriate decay. In some cases, e.g. a waking task, this
time interval may be much larger than our period unit.
Fortunately we can exploit some properties of our series to perform decay for a
blocked update in constant time and account the contribution for a running
update in essentially-constant* time.
[*]: For any running entity they should be performing updates at the tick which
gives us a soft limit of 1 jiffy between updates, and we can compute up to a
32 jiffy update in a single pass.
C program to generate the magic constants in the arrays:
#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define N 32
#define WMULT_SHIFT 32
const long WMULT_CONST = ((1UL << N) - 1);
double y;
long runnable_avg_yN_inv[N];
void calc_mult_inv() {
int i;
double yn = 0;
printf("inverses\n");
for (i = 0; i < N; i++) {
yn = (double)WMULT_CONST * pow(y, i);
runnable_avg_yN_inv[i] = yn;
printf("%2d: 0x%8lx\n", i, runnable_avg_yN_inv[i]);
}
printf("\n");
}
long mult_inv(long c, int n) {
return (c * runnable_avg_yN_inv[n]) >> WMULT_SHIFT;
}
void calc_yn_sum(int n)
{
int i;
double sum = 0, sum_fl = 0, diff = 0;
/*
* We take the floored sum to ensure the sum of partial sums is never
* larger than the actual sum.
*/
printf("sum y^n\n");
printf(" %8s %8s %8s\n", "exact", "floor", "error");
for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
sum = (y * sum + y * 1024);
sum_fl = floor(y * sum_fl+ y * 1024);
printf("%2d: %8.0f %8.0f %8.0f\n", i, sum, sum_fl,
sum_fl - sum);
}
printf("\n");
}

i++;

of update_shares() to be about each period overflow. This is a large cost

Now that running entities maintain their own load-averages the work we must do
in update_shares() is largely restricted to the periodic decay of blocked
entities. This allows us to be a little less pessimistic regarding our
occupancy on rq->lock and the associated rq->clock updates required.

With bandwidth control tracked entities may cease execution according to user
specified bandwidth limits. Charging this time as either throttled or blocked
however, is incorrect and would falsely skew in either direction.
What we actually want is for any throttled periods to be "invisible" to
load-tracking as they are removed from the system for that interval and
contribute normally otherwise.
Do this by moderating the progression of time to omit any periods in which the
entity belonged to a throttled hierarchy.
