Add a notifier chain that allows drivers for those peripherals to be notified before and after they may be reset. Notified drivers can include VFP co-processor, interrupt controller and it's PM extensions, local CPU timers context save/restore which shouldn't be interrupted. Hence CPU PM event APIs must be called with interrupts disabled.

This means that pmu::event_init() must figure out which struct pmu the event was initialised from. This makes it difficult to consolidate common event initialisation code for similar PMUs, and very difficult to implement drivers for PMUs which can have multiple instances (e.g. a USB controller PMU, a GPU PMU, etc). This patch sets the 'pmu' field before initialising the event, allowing event init code to identify the struct pmu instance easily. In the event of failure to initialise an event, the event is destroyed via kfree() without calling perf_event::destroy(), so this shouldn't result in bad behaviour even if the destroy field was set before failure to initialise was noted.

When the trylock fails TSC usually becomes unstable. We can be more clever by using an atomic counter and checking it in the clocksource_watchdog callback. We restart the watchdog whenever the counter is > 0 and only decrement the counter when we ran through a full update cycle.

Just build it with "gcc -o test test.c -lpthread -lrt" or similar. Run it several times, and you will see cases where the main thread will measure a process clock difference before and after the nanosleep which is smaller than the cpu-burner thread's individual thread clock difference. This doesn't make any sense since the cpu-burner thread is part of the top-level process's thread group. I've reproduced this on both x86-64 and sparc64 (using both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries). For example: [davem@boricha build-x86_64-linux]$ ./test process: before(0.001221967) after(0.498624371) diff(497402404) thread: before(0.000081692) after(0.498316431) diff(498234739) self: before(0.001223521) after(0.001240219) diff(16698) [davem@boricha build-x86_64-linux]$ The diff of 'process' should always be >= the diff of 'thread'. I make sure to wrap the 'thread' clock measurements the most tightly around the nanosleep() call, and that the 'process' clock measurements are the outer-most ones. --- #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <time.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <string.h> #include <errno.h> #include <pthread.h> static pthread_barrier_t barrier; static void *chew_cpu(void *arg) { pthread_barrier_wait(&barrier); while (1) __asm__ __volatile__("" : : : "memory"); return NULL; } int main(void) { clockid_t process_clock, my_thread_clock, th_clock; struct timespec process_before, process_after; struct timespec me_before, me_after; struct timespec th_before, th_after; struct timespec sleeptime; unsigned long diff; pthread_t th; int err; err = clock_getcpuclockid(0, &process_clock); if (err) return 1; err = pthread_getcpuclockid(pthread_self(), &my_thread_clock); if (err) return 1; pthread_barrier_init(&barrier, NULL, 2); err = pthread_create(&th, NULL, chew_cpu, NULL); if (err) return 1; err = pthread_getcpuclockid(th, &th_clock); if (err) return 1; pthread_barrier_wait(&barrier); err = clock_gettime(process_clock, &process_before); if (err) return 1; err = clock_gettime(my_thread_clock, &me_before); if (err) return 1; err = clock_gettime(th_clock, &th_before); if (err) return 1; sleeptime.tv_sec = 0; sleeptime.tv_nsec = 500000000; nanosleep(&sleeptime, NULL); err = clock_gettime(th_clock, &th_after); if (err) return 1; err = clock_gettime(my_thread_clock, &me_after); if (err) return 1; err = clock_gettime(process_clock, &process_after); if (err) return 1; diff = process_after.tv_nsec - process_before.tv_nsec; printf("process: before(%lu.%.9lu) after(%lu.%.9lu) diff(%lu)\n", process_before.tv_sec, process_before.tv_nsec, process_after.tv_sec, process_after.tv_nsec, diff); diff = th_after.tv_nsec - th_before.tv_nsec; printf("thread: before(%lu.%.9lu) after(%lu.%.9lu) diff(%lu)\n", th_before.tv_sec, th_before.tv_nsec, th_after.tv_sec, th_after.tv_nsec, diff); diff = me_after.tv_nsec - me_before.tv_nsec; printf("self: before(%lu.%.9lu) after(%lu.%.9lu) diff(%lu)\n", me_before.tv_sec, me_before.tv_nsec, me_after.tv_sec, me_after.tv_nsec, diff); return 0; } This is due to us using p->se.sum_exec_runtime in thread_group_cputime() where we iterate the thread group and sum all data. This does not take time since the last schedule operation (tick or otherwise) into account. We can cure this by using task_sched_runtime() at the cost of having to take locks. This also means we can (and must) do away with thread_group_sched_runtime() since the modified thread_group_cputime() is now more accurate and would deadlock when called from thread_group_sched_runtime().

In addition not all architectures want the automatic adjustment, on a massively virtualized system it can happen that the programming of a clock event fails several times in a row because the virtual cpu has been rescheduled quickly enough. In that case the minimum delay will erroneously be increased with no way back. The new config symbol GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS_MIN_ADJUST is used to enable the automatic adjustment. The config option is selected only for x86.

The value (idle_sleeptime) is also printed to userspace by print_cpu but it prints both idle and iowait times so the idle part is misleading. Let's clean this up and fix update_ts_time_stat to account both counters properly and update consumers of idle to consider iowait time as well. If we do this we might use get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us from other contexts as well and we will get expected values.

This will be used later in the load balance that will be done in the softirq context (which is a process context in -RT kernels). For nohz kernels, for the cpu doing nohz idle load balance on behalf of all the idle cpu's, its rq->idle_at_tick might have a stale value (which is recorded when it got the timer tick presumably when it is busy). As the nohz idle load balancing is also being done at the same place as the regular load balancing, nohz idle load balancing was bailing out when it sees rq's idle_at_tick not set. Thus leading to poor system utilization. Rename rq's idle_at_tick to idle_balance and set it when someone requests for nohz idle balance on an idle cpu.

Actual IPI to cpu-B to process the call single queue is not yet sent. 2. As part of the timer interrupt handler, cpu-A decided to kick cpu-B for the idle load balancing (sets cpu-B's rq->nohz_balance_kick to 1) and __smp_call_function_single() with nowait will queue the csd to the cpu-B's queue. But the generic_exec_single() won't send an IPI to cpu-B as the call single queue was not empty. 3. cpu-A is busy with lot of interrupts 4. Meanwhile cpu-B is entering and exiting idle and noticed that it has it's rq->nohz_balance_kick set to '1'. So it will go ahead and do the idle load balancer and clear its rq->nohz_balance_kick. 5. At this point, csd queued as part of the step-2 above is still locked and waiting to be serviced on cpu-B. 6. cpu-A is still busy with interrupt load and now it got another timer interrupt and as part of it decided to kick cpu-B for another idle load balancing (as it finds cpu-B's rq->nohz_balance_kick cleared in step-4 above) and does __smp_call_function_single() with the same csd that is still locked. 7. And we get a deadlock waiting for the csd_lock() in the __smp_call_function_single(). Main issue here is that cpu-B can service the idle load balancer kick request from cpu-A even with out receiving the IPI and this lead to doing multiple __smp_call_function_single() on the same csd leading to deadlock. To kick a cpu, scheduler already has the reschedule vector reserved. Use that mechanism (kick_process()) instead of using the generic smp call function mechanism to kick off the nohz idle load balancing and avoid the deadlock.

This is because of select_idle_sibling()'s interaction with the new ipi based wakeup scheme. The existing idle_cpu() test only checks to see if the current task on that cpu is the idle task, it does not take already queued tasks into account, nor does it take queued to be woken tasks into account. If the remote wakeup IPIs come hard enough, there won't be time to schedule away from the idle task, and would thus keep thinking the cpu was in fact idle, regardless of the fact that there were already several hundred tasks runnable. We couldn't reproduce on mainline, but there's no reason it couldn't happen.

We do this only when the quota is current and there is more than min_cfs_rq_quota [1ms by default] of runtime remaining on the rq. In the case where there are throttled runqueues and we have sufficient bandwidth to meter out a slice, a second timer is kicked off to handle this delivery, unthrottling where appropriate. Using a 'worst case' antagonist which executes on each cpu for 1ms before moving onto the next on a fairly large machine: no quota generations: 197.47 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 199.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 205.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.46 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 208.39 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage Since we are allowed to use "stale" quota our usage is effectively bounded by the rate of input into the global pool and performance is relatively stable. with quota generations [1s increments]: 119.58 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.65 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.64 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.63 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 119.60 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage The large deficit here is due to quota generations (/intentionally/) preventing us from now using previously stranded slack quota. The cost is that this quota becomes unavailable. with quota generations and quota return: 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 198.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.09 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage 200.06 ms /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage By returning unused quota we're able to both stably consume our desired quota and prevent unintentional overages due to the abuse of slack quota from previous quota periods (especially on a large machine).

However, both of these operations work on 'active' lists and are not inherently aware of what group hierarchies may be present. In some cases this may be side-stepped (e.g. we could sideload via tg_load_down in load balance) while in others (e.g. update_shares()) it is more difficult to compute without incurring some O(n^2) costs. Instead, track hierarchicaal throttled state at time of transition. This allows us to easily identify whether an entity belongs to a throttled hierarchy and avoid incorrect interactions with it. Also, when an entity leaves a throttled hierarchy we need to advance its time averaging for shares averaging so that the elapsed throttled time is not considered as part of the cfs_rq's operation. We also use this information to prevent buddy interactions in the wakeup and yield_to() paths.

| * | | | | | sched: Add support for unthrottling group entitiesPaul Turner2011-08-14

At this time we must also unthrottle any cfs_rq entities who are now within bandwidth once more (as quota permits). Unthrottled entities have their corresponding cfs_rq->throttled flag cleared and their entities re-enqueued.

Throttled entities are dequeued to prevent scheduling, additionally we mark them as throttled (using cfs_rq->throttled) to prevent them from becoming re-enqueued until they are unthrottled. A list of a task_group's throttled entities are maintained on the cfs_bandwidth structure. Note: While the machinery for throttling is added in this patch the act of throttling an entity exceeding its bandwidth is deferred until later within the series.
