Apply frequency scale-invariance correction factor to usage tracking. Each segment of the running_avg_sum geometric series is now scaled by the current frequency so the utilization_avg_contrib of each entity will be invariant with frequency scaling. As a result, utilization_load_avg which is the sum of utilization_avg_contrib, becomes invariant too. So the usage level that is returned by get_cpu_usage(), stays relative to the max frequency as the cpu_capacity which is is compared against. Then, we want the keep the load tracking values in a 32-bit type, which implies that the max value of {runnable|running}_avg_sum must be lower than 2^32/88761=48388 (88761 is the max weigth of a task). As LOAD_AVG_MAX = 47742, arch_scale_freq_capacity() must return a value less than (48388/47742) << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT = 1037 (SCHED_SCALE_CAPACITY = 1024). So we define the range to [0..SCHED_SCALE_CAPACITY] in order to avoid overflow.

Now that arch_scale_cpu_capacity has been introduced to scale the original capacity, the arch_scale_freq_capacity is no longer used (it was previously used by ARM arch). Remove arch_scale_freq_capacity from the computation of cpu_capacity. The frequency invariance will be handled in the load tracking and not in the CPU capacity. arch_scale_freq_capacity will be revisited for scaling load with the current frequency of the CPUs in a later patch.

Add usage contribution tracking for group entities. Unlike se->avg.load_avg_contrib, se->avg.utilization_avg_contrib for group entities is the sum of se->avg.utilization_avg_contrib for all entities on the group runqueue. It is _not_ influenced in any way by the task group h_load. Hence it is representing the actual cpu usage of the group, not its intended load contribution which may differ significantly from the utilization on lightly utilized systems.

Add new statistics which reflect the average time a task is running on the CPU and the sum of these running time of the tasks on a runqueue. The latter is named utilization_load_avg. This patch is based on the usage metric that was proposed in the 1st versions of the per-entity load tracking patchset by Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> but that has be removed afterwards. This version differs from the original one in the sense that it's not linked to task_group. The rq's utilization_load_avg will be used to check if a rq is overloaded or not instead of trying to compute how many tasks a group of CPUs can handle. Rename runnable_avg_period into avg_period as it is now used with both runnable_avg_sum and running_avg_sum. Add some descriptions of the variables to explain their differences.

When debugging the latencies on a 40 core box, where we hit 300 to 500 microsecond latencies, I found there was a huge contention on the runqueue locks. Investigating it further, running ftrace, I found that it was due to the pulling of RT tasks. The test that was run was the following: cyclictest --numa -p95 -m -d0 -i100 This created a thread on each CPU, that would set its wakeup in iterations of 100 microseconds. The -d0 means that all the threads had the same interval (100us). Each thread sleeps for 100us and wakes up and measures its latencies. cyclictest is maintained at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clrkwllms/rt-tests.git What happened was another RT task would be scheduled on one of the CPUs that was running our test, when the other CPU tests went to sleep and scheduled idle. This caused the "pull" operation to execute on all these CPUs. Each one of these saw the RT task that was overloaded on the CPU of the test that was still running, and each one tried to grab that task in a thundering herd way. To grab the task, each thread would do a double rq lock grab, grabbing its own lock as well as the rq of the overloaded CPU. As the sched domains on this box was rather flat for its size, I saw up to 12 CPUs block on this lock at once. This caused a ripple affect with the rq locks especially since the taking was done via a double rq lock, which means that several of the CPUs had their own rq locks held while trying to take this rq lock. As these locks were blocked, any wakeups or load balanceing on these CPUs would also block on these locks, and the wait time escalated. I've tried various methods to lessen the load, but things like an atomic counter to only let one CPU grab the task wont work, because the task may have a limited affinity, and we may pick the wrong CPU to take that lock and do the pull, to only find out that the CPU we picked isn't in the task's affinity. Instead of doing the PULL, I now have the CPUs that want the pull to send over an IPI to the overloaded CPU, and let that CPU pick what CPU to push the task to. No more need to grab the rq lock, and the push/pull algorithm still works fine. With this patch, the latency dropped to just 150us over a 20 hour run. Without the patch, the huge latencies would trigger in seconds. I've created a new sched feature called RT_PUSH_IPI, which is enabled by default. When RT_PUSH_IPI is not enabled, the old method of grabbing the rq locks and having the pulling CPU do the work is implemented. When RT_PUSH_IPI is enabled, the IPI is sent to the overloaded CPU to do a push. To enabled or disable this at run time: # mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug # echo RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features or # echo NO_RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features Update: This original patch would send an IPI to all CPUs in the RT overload list. But that could theoretically cause the reverse issue. That is, there could be lots of overloaded RT queues and one CPU lowers its priority. It would then send an IPI to all the overloaded RT queues and they could then all try to grab the rq lock of the CPU lowering its priority, and then we have the same problem. The latest design sends out only one IPI to the first overloaded CPU. It tries to push any tasks that it can, and then looks for the next overloaded CPU that can push to the source CPU. The IPIs stop when all overloaded CPUs that have pushable tasks that have priorities greater than the source CPU are covered. In case the source CPU lowers its priority again, a flag is set to tell the IPI traversal to restart with the first RT overloaded CPU after the source CPU.

Brian Silverman authored
When non-realtime tasks get priority-inheritance boosted to a realtime scheduling class, RLIMIT_RTTIME starts to apply to them. However, the counter used for checking this (the same one used for SCHED_RR timeslices) was not getting reset. This meant that tasks running with a non-realtime scheduling class which are repeatedly boosted to a realtime one, but never block while they are running realtime, eventually hit the timeout without ever running for a time over the limit. This patch resets the realtime timeslice counter when un-PI-boosting from an RT to a non-RT scheduling class. I have some test code with two threads and a shared PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT mutex which induces priority boosting and spins while boosted that gets killed by a SIGXCPU on non-fixed kernels but doesn't with this patch applied. It happens much faster with a CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT kernel, and does happen eventually with PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernels.

If ->run() fails, it can either free the data structures it allocated, or leave that task to ->free() which will be called on failures. However: md.c calls ->free() even if ->private_data is NULL, which causes problems in some personalities. raid0.c frees the data, but doesn't clear ->private_data, which will become a problem when we fix md.c So better fix both these issues at once.

init_mm isn't a normal mm: it has swapper_pg_dir as its pgd (which contains kernel mappings) and is used as the active_mm for the idle thread. When restoring the pgd after an EFI call, we write current->active_mm into TTBR0. If the current task is actually the idle thread (e.g. when initialising the EFI RTC before entering userspace), then the TLB can erroneously populate itself with junk global entries as a result of speculative table walks. When we do eventually return to userspace, the task can end up hitting these junk mappings leading to lockups, corruption or crashes. This patch fixes the problem in the same way as the CPU suspend code by ensuring that we never switch to the init_mm in efi_set_pgd and instead point TTBR0 at the zero page. A check is also added to cpu_switch_mm to BUG if we get passed swapper_pg_dir.

Commit b4b55cda (Refine the way to release PCI IRQ resources) introduced a regression in the PCI IRQ resource management by causing the IRQ resource of a device, established when pci_enabled_device() is called on a fully disabled device, to be released when the driver is unbound from the device, regardless of the enable_cnt. This leads to the situation that an ill-behaved driver can now make a device unusable to subsequent drivers by an imbalance in their use of pci_enable/disable_device(). That is a serious problem for secondary drivers like vfio-pci, which are innocent of the transgressions of the previous driver. Since the solution of this problem is not immediate and requires further discussion, revert commit b4b55cda and the issue it was supposed to address (a bug related to xen-pciback) will be taken care of in a different way going forward.

A check that rejects a CDB with FUA bit set if no write cache is emulated was added by the following commit: fde9f50f target: Add sanity checks for DPO/FUA bit usage The condition is as follows: if (!dev->dev_attrib.emulate_fua_write || !dev->dev_attrib.emulate_write_cache) However, this check is wrong if the backend device supports WCE but "emulate_write_cache" is disabled. This patch uses se_dev_check_wce() (previously named spc_check_dev_wce) to invoke transport->get_write_cache() if the device has a write cache or check the "emulate_write_cache" attribute otherwise.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference triggered by a late target_configure_device() -> alloc_workqueue() failure that results in target_free_device() being called with DF_CONFIGURED already set, which subsequently OOPses in destroy_workqueue() code. Currently this only happens at modprobe target_core_mod time when core_dev_setup_virtual_lun0() -> target_configure_device() fails, and the explicit target_free_device() gets called. To address this bug originally introduced by commit 0fd97ccf, go ahead and move DF_CONFIGURED to end of target_configure_device() code to handle this special failure case.

This patch changes loopback, usb-gadget, vhost-scsi and xen-scsiback fabric code to invoke transport_register_session() instead of the unprotected flavour, to ensure se_tpg->session_lock is taken when adding new session list nodes to se_tpg->tpg_sess_list. Note that since these four fabric drivers already hold their own internal TPG mutexes when accessing se_tpg->tpg_sess_list, and consist of a single se_session created through configfs attribute access, no list corruption can currently occur. So for correctness sake, go ahead and use the se_tpg->session_lock protected version for these four fabric drivers.

This patch fixes the incorrect use of __transport_register_session() in tcm_qla2xxx_check_initiator_node_acl() code, that does not perform explicit se_tpg->session_lock when accessing se_tpg->tpg_sess_list to add new se_sess nodes. Given that tcm_qla2xxx_check_initiator_node_acl() is not called with qla_hw->hardware_lock held for all accesses of ->tpg_sess_list, the code should be using transport_register_session() instead.
