* Task Control Groups: example CPU accounting subsystemPaul Menage2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This example demonstrates how to use the generic cgroup subsystem for a simple resource tracker that counts, for the processes in a cgroup, the total CPU time used and the %CPU used in the last complete 10 second interval.

| * sched: reduce schedstat variable overhead a bitKen Chen2007-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | schedstat is useful in investigating CPU scheduler behavior. Ideally, I think it is beneficial to have it on all the time. However, the cost of turning it on in production system is quite high, largely due to number of events it collects and also due to its large memory footprint. Most of the fields probably don't need to be full 64-bit on 64-bit arch. Rolling over 4 billion events will most like take a long time and user space tool can be made to accommodate that. I'm proposing kernel to cut back most of variable width on 64-bit system. (note, the following patch doesn't affect 32-bit system).

| * sched: fix improper load balance across sched domainKen Chen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We recently discovered a nasty performance bug in the kernel CPU load balancer where we were hit by 50% performance regression. When tasks are assigned to a subset of CPUs that span across sched_domains (either ccNUMA node or the new multi-core domain) via cpu affinity, kernel fails to perform proper load balance at these domains, due to several logic in find_busiest_group() miss identified busiest sched group within a given domain. This leads to inadequate load balance and causes 50% performance hit. To give you a concrete example, on a dual-core, 2 socket numa system, there are 4 logical cpu, organized as: CPU0 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0003 groups: 0001 0002 domain 1: span 000f groups: 0003 000c CPU1 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0003 groups: 0002 0001 domain 1: span 000f groups: 0003 000c CPU2 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 000c groups: 0004 0008 domain 1: span 000f groups: 000c 0003 CPU3 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 000c groups: 0008 0004 domain 1: span 000f groups: 000c 0003 If I run 2 tasks with CPU affinity set to 0x5. There are situation where cpu0 has run queue length of 2, and cpu2 will be idle. The kernel load balancer is unable to balance out these two tasks over cpu0 and cpu2 due to at least three logics in find_busiest_group() that heavily bias load balance towards power saving mode. e.g. while determining "busiest" variable, kernel only set it when "sum_nr_running > group_capacity". This test is flawed that "sum_nr_running" is not necessary same as sum-tasks-allowed-to-run-within-the sched-group. The end result is that kernel "think" everything is balanced, but in reality we have an imbalance and thus causing one CPU to be over-subscribed and leaving other idle. There are two other logic in the same function will also causing similar effect. The nastiness of this bug is that kernel not be able to get unstuck in this unfortunate broken state. From what we've seen in our environment, kernel will stuck in imbalanced state for extended period of time and it is also very easy for the kernel to stuck into that state (it's pretty much 100% reproducible for us). So proposing the following fix: add addition logic in find_busiest_group to detect intrinsic imbalance within the busiest group. When such condition is detected, load balance goes into spread mode instead of default grouping mode. Signed-off-by: Ken Chen <kenchen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
| * sched: more robust sd-sysctl entry freeingMilton Miller2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It occurred to me this morning that the procname field was dynamically allocated and needed to be freed. I started to put in break statements when allocation failed but it was approaching 50% error handling code. I came up with this alternative of looping while entry->mode is set and checking proc_handler instead of ->table. Alternatively, the string version of the domain name and cpu number could be stored the structs. I verified by compiling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB and checking the allocation counts after taking a cpuset exclusive and back. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* cpuset: remove sched domain hooks from cpusetsPaul Jackson2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the cpuset hooks that defined sched domains depending on the setting of the 'cpu_exclusive' flag. The cpu_exclusive flag can only be set on a child if it is set on the parent. This made that flag painfully unsuitable for use as a flag defining a partitioning of a system. It was entirely unobvious to a cpuset user what partitioning of sched domains they would be causing when they set that one cpu_exclusive bit on one cpuset, because it depended on what CPUs were in the remainder of that cpusets siblings and child cpusets, after subtracting out other cpu_exclusive cpusets. Furthermore, there was no way on production systems to query the result. Using the cpu_exclusive flag for this was simply wrong from the get go. Fortunately, it was sufficiently borked that so far as I know, almost no successful use has been made of this. One real time group did use it to affectively isolate CPUs from any load balancing efforts. They are willing to adapt to alternative mechanisms for this, such as someway to manipulate the list of isolated CPUs on a running system. They can do without this present cpu_exclusive based mechanism while we develop an alternative. There is a real risk, to the best of my understanding, of users accidentally setting up a partitioned scheduler domains, inhibiting desired load balancing across all their CPUs, due to the nonobvious (from the cpuset perspective) side affects of the cpu_exclusive flag. Furthermore, since there was no way on a running system to see what one was doing with sched domains, this change will be invisible to any using code. Unless they have real insight to the scheduler load balancing choices, they will be unable to detect that this change has been made in the kernel's behaviour. Initial discussion on lkml of this patch has generated much comment. My (probably controversial) take on that discussion is that it has reached a rough concensus that the current cpuset cpu_exclusive mechanism for defining sched domains is borked. There is no concensus on the replacement. But since we can remove this mechanism, and since its continued presence risks causing unwanted partitioning of the schedulers load balancing, we should remove it while we can, as we proceed to work the replacement scheduler domain mechanisms.

* sched: tidy up SCHED_RRDmitry Adamushko2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - make timeslices of SCHED_RR tasks constant and not dependent on task's static_prio [1] ; - remove obsolete code (timeslice related bits); - make sched_rr_get_interval() return something more meaningful [2] for SCHED_OTHER tasks. [1] according to the following link, it's not compliant with SUSv3 (not sure though, what is the reference for us :-) http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/3/7/656 [2] the interval is dynamic and can be depicted as follows "should a task be one of the runnable tasks at this particular moment, it would expect to run for this interval of time before being re-scheduled by the scheduler tick". (i.e. it's more precise if a task is runnable at the moment) yeah, this seems to require task_rq_lock/unlock() but this is not a hot path. results: (SCHED_FIFO) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt -f 10 ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 0 (SCHED_RR) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt 10 ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 99984800 (SCHED_NORMAL) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 19996960 (SCHED_NORMAL + a cpu_hog of similar 'weight' on the same CPU --- so should be a half of the previous result) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ taskset 1 ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 9998480 Signed-off-by: Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
