Currently the pick_next_task() loop is convoluted and ugly because of how it can drop the rq->lock and needs to restart the picking. For the RT/Deadline classes, it is put_prev_task() where we do balancing, and we could do this before the picking loop. Make this possible. Signed-off-by:

For pick_next_task_fair() it is the newidle balance that requires dropping the rq->lock; provided we do put_prev_task() early, we can also detect the condition for doing newidle early. Signed-off-by:

The CPU hotplug task selection is the only place where we used put_prev_task() on a task that is not current. While looking at that, it occured to me that we can simplify all that by by using a custom pick loop. Since we don't need to put current, we can do away with the fake task too. Signed-off-by: -

Because pick_next_task() implies set_curr_task() and some of the details haven't mattered too much, some of what _should_ be in set_curr_task() ended up in pick_next_task, correct this. This prepares the way for a pick_next_task() variant that does not affect the current state; allowing remote picking. Signed-off-by:

It has been observed, that highly-threaded, non-cpu-bound applications running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints can hit a high percentage of periods throttled while simultaneously not consuming the allocated amount of quota. This use case is typical of user-interactive non-cpu bound applications, such as those running in kubernetes or mesos when run on multiple cpu cores. This has been root caused to cpu-local run queue being allocated per cpu bandwidth slices, and then not fully using that slice within the period. At which point the slice and quota expires. This expiration of unused slice results in applications not being able to utilize the quota for which they are allocated. The non-expiration of per-cpu slices was recently fixed by 'commit 512ac999 ("sched/fair: Fix bandwidth timer clock drift condition")'. Prior to that it appears that this had been broken since at least 'commit 51f2176d ("sched/fair: Fix unlocked reads of some cfs_b->quota/period")' which was introduced in v3.16-rc1 in 2014. That added the following conditional which resulted in slices never being expired. if (cfs_rq->runtime_expires != cfs_b->runtime_expires) { /* extend local deadline, drift is bounded above by 2 ticks */ cfs_rq->runtime_expires += TICK_NSEC; Because this was broken for nearly 5 years, and has recently been fixed and is now being noticed by many users running kubernetes (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/67577) it is my opinion that the mechanisms around expiring runtime should be removed altogether. This allows quota already allocated to per-cpu run-queues to live longer than the period boundary. This allows threads on runqueues that do not use much CPU to continue to use their remaining slice over a longer period of time than cpu.cfs_period_us. However, this helps prevent the above condition of hitting throttling while also not fully utilizing your cpu quota. This theoretically allows a machine to use slightly more than its allotted quota in some periods. This overflow would be bounded by the remaining quota left on each per-cpu runqueueu. This is typically no more than min_cfs_rq_runtime=1ms per cpu. For CPU bound tasks this will change nothing, as they should theoretically fully utilize all of their quota in each period. For user-interactive tasks as described above this provides a much better user/application experience as their cpu utilization will more closely match the amount they requested when they hit throttling. This means that cpu limits no longer strictly apply per period for non-cpu bound applications, but that they are still accurate over longer timeframes. This greatly improves performance of high-thread-count, non-cpu bound applications with low cfs_quota_us allocation on high-core-count machines. In the case of an artificial testcase (10ms/100ms of quota on 80 CPU machine), this commit resulted in almost 30x performance improvement, while still maintaining correct cpu quota restrictions. That testcase is available at https://github.com/indeedeng/fibtest. Fixes: 512ac999 ("sched/fair: Fix bandwidth timer clock drift condition") Signed-off-by:

The current active_mm reference counting is confusing and sub-optimal. Rewrite the code to explicitly consider the 4 separate cases: user -> user When switching between two user tasks, all we need to consider is switch_mm(). user -> kernel When switching from a user task to a kernel task (which doesn't have an associated mm) we retain the last mm in our active_mm. Increment a reference count on active_mm. kernel -> kernel When switching between kernel threads, all we need to do is pass along the active_mm reference. kernel -> user When switching between a kernel and user task, we must switch from the last active_mm to the next mm, hoping of course that these are the same. Decrement a reference on the active_mm. The code keeps a different order, because as you'll note, both 'to user' cases require switch_mm(). And where the old code would increment/decrement for the 'kernel -> kernel' case, the new code observes this is a neutral operation and avoids touching the reference count.

On !CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED configurations it is currently not possible to move RT tasks between cgroups to which CPU controller has been attached; but it is oddly possible to first move tasks around and then make them RT (setschedule to FIFO/RR). E.g.: # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1 # chrt -fp 10 $$ # echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # chrt -op 0 $$ # echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks # chrt -fp 10 $$ # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks 2345 2598 # chrt -p 2345 pid 2345's current scheduling policy: SCHED_FIFO pid 2345's current scheduling priority: 10 Also, as Michal noted, it is currently not possible to enable CPU controller on unified hierarchy with !CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED (if there are any kernel RT threads in root cgroup, they can't be migrated to the newly created CPU controller's root in cgroup_update_dfl_csses()). Existing code comes with a comment saying the "we don't support RT-tasks being in separate groups". Such comment is however stale and belongs to pre-RT_GROUP_SCHED times. Also, it doesn't make much sense for !RT_GROUP_ SCHED configurations, since checks related to RT bandwidth are not performed at all in these cases. Make moving RT tasks between CPU controller groups viable by removing special case check for RT (and DEADLINE) tasks. Signed-off-by:

No synchronisation mechanism exists between the cpuset subsystem and calls to function __sched_setscheduler(). As such, it is possible that new root domains are created on the cpuset side while a deadline acceptance test is carried out in __sched_setscheduler(), leading to a potential oversell of CPU bandwidth. Grab cpuset_rwsem read lock from core scheduler, so to prevent situations such as the one described above from happening. The only exception is normalize_rt_tasks() which needs to work under tasklist_lock and can't therefore grab cpuset_rwsem. We are fine with this, as this function is only called by sysrq and, if that gets triggered, DEADLINE guarantees are already gone out of the window anyway. Tested-by:

cpuset_rwsem is going to be acquired from sched_setscheduler() with a following patch. There are however paths (e.g., spawn_ksoftirqd) in which sched_scheduler() is eventually called while holding hotplug lock; this creates a dependecy between hotplug lock (to be always acquired first) and cpuset_rwsem (to be always acquired after hotplug lock). Fix paths which currently take the two locks in the wrong order (after a following patch is applied). Tested-by:

Juri Lelli authored
Holding cpuset_mutex means that cpusets are stable (only the holder can make changes) and this is required for fixing a synchronization issue between cpusets and scheduler core. However, grabbing cpuset_mutex from setscheduler() hotpath (as implemented in a later patch) is a no-go, as it would create a bottleneck for tasks concurrently calling setscheduler(). Convert cpuset_mutex to be a percpu_rwsem (cpuset_rwsem), so that setscheduler() will then be able to read lock it and avoid concurrency issues. Tested-by:

We try to find an idle CPU to run the next task, but in case we don't find an idle CPU it is better to pick a CPU which will run the task the soonest, for performance reason. A CPU which isn't idle but has only SCHED_IDLE activity queued on it should be a good target based on this criteria as any normal fair task will most likely preempt the currently running SCHED_IDLE task immediately. In fact, choosing a SCHED_IDLE CPU over a fully idle one shall give better results as it should be able to run the task sooner than an idle CPU (which requires to be woken up from an idle state). This patch updates both fast and slow paths with this optimization. Signed-off-by:

After all, interrupts are supposed to be disabled throughout take_cpu_down(), and therefore should have been disabled upon entry to tick_offline_cpu() and thus to tick_broadcast_offline(). This suggests that one of the CPU-hotplug notifiers was incorrectly enabling interrupts, and leaving them enabled on return. Some debugging code showed that the culprit was sched_cpu_dying(). It had irqs enabled after return from sched_tick_stop(). Which in turn had irqs enabled after return from cancel_delayed_work_sync(). Which is a wrapper around __cancel_work_timer(). Which can sleep in the case where something else is concurrently trying to cancel the same delayed work, and as Thomas Gleixner pointed out on IRC, sleeping is a decidedly bad idea when you are invoked from take_cpu_down(), regardless of the state you leave interrupts in upon return. Code inspection located no reason why the delayed work absolutely needed to be canceled from sched_tick_stop(): The work is not bound to the outgoing CPU by design, given that the whole point is to collect statistics without disturbing the outgoing CPU. This commit therefore simply drops the cancel_delayed_work_sync() from sched_tick_stop(). Instead, a new ->state field is added to the tick_work structure so that the delayed-work handler function sched_tick_remote() can avoid reposting itself. A cpu_is_offline() check is also added to sched_tick_remote() to avoid mucking with the state of an offlined CPU (though it does appear safe to do so). The sched_tick_start() and sched_tick_stop() functions also update ->state, and sched_tick_start() also schedules the delayed work if ->state indicates that it is not already in flight.

The load_balance() has a dedicated mecanism to detect when an imbalance is due to CPU affinity and must be handled at parent level. In this case, the imbalance field of the parent's sched_group is set. The description of sg_imbalanced() gives a typical example of two groups of 4 CPUs each and 4 tasks each with a cpumask covering 1 CPU of the first group and 3 CPUs of the second group. Something like: { 0 1 2 3 } { 4 5 6 7 } * * * * But the load_balance fails to fix this UC on my octo cores system made of 2 clusters of quad cores. Whereas the load_balance is able to detect that the imbalanced is due to CPU affinity, it fails to fix it because the imbalance field is cleared before letting parent level a chance to run. In fact, when the imbalance is detected, the load_balance reruns without the CPU with pinned tasks. But there is no other running tasks in the situation described above and everything looks balanced this time so the imbalance field is immediately cleared. The imbalance field should not be cleared if there is no other task to move when the imbalance is detected. Signed-off-by:Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Signed-off-by:

When going through execve(), zero out the NUMA fault statistics instead of freeing them. During execve, the task is reachable through procfs and the scheduler. A concurrent /proc/*/sched reader can read data from a freed ->numa_faults allocation (confirmed by KASAN) and write it back to userspace. I believe that it would also be possible for a use-after-free read to occur through a race between a NUMA fault and execve(): task_numa_fault() can lead to task_numa_compare(), which invokes task_weight() on the currently running task of a different CPU. Another way to fix this would be to make ->numa_faults RCU-managed or add extra locking, but it seems easier to wipe the NUMA fault statistics on execve. Signed-off-by:

The merge of the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT stub renamed CONFIG_PREEMPT to CONFIG_PREEMPT_LL which causes all defconfigs which have CONFIG_PREEMPT=y set to fall back to CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE because CONFIG_PREEMPT depends on the preemption mode choice wich defaults to NONE. This also affects oldconfig builds. So rather than changing 114 defconfig files and being an annoyance to users, revert the rename and select a new config symbol PREEMPTION. That keeps everything working smoothly and the revelant ifdef's are going to be fixed up step by step. Reported-by:

There is a race between reading task->exit_state in pidfd_poll and writing it after do_notify_parent calls do_notify_pidfd. Expected sequence of events is: CPU 0 CPU 1 ------------------------------------------------ exit_notify do_notify_parent do_notify_pidfd tsk->exit_state = EXIT_DEAD pidfd_poll if (tsk->exit_state) However nothing prevents the following sequence: CPU 0 CPU 1 ------------------------------------------------ exit_notify do_notify_parent do_notify_pidfd pidfd_poll if (tsk->exit_state) tsk->exit_state = EXIT_DEAD This causes a polling task to wait forever, since poll blocks because exit_state is 0 and the waiting task is not notified again. A stress test continuously doing pidfd poll and process exits uncovered this bug. To fix it, we make sure that the task's exit_state is always set before calling do_notify_pidfd.
