Some method to deal with rt-mutexes and make sched_dl interact with the current PI-coded is needed, raising all but trivial issues, that needs (according to us) to be solved with some restructuring of the pi-code (i.e., going toward a proxy execution-ish implementation). This is under development, in the meanwhile, as a temporary solution, what this commits does is: - ensure a pi-lock owner with waiters is never throttled down. Instead, when it runs out of runtime, it immediately gets replenished and it's deadline is postponed; - the scheduling parameters (relative deadline and default runtime) used for that replenishments --during the whole period it holds the pi-lock-- are the ones of the waiting task with earliest deadline. Acting this way, we provide some kind of boosting to the lock-owner, still by using the existing (actually, slightly modified by the previous commit) pi-architecture. We would stress the fact that this is only a surely needed, all but clean solution to the problem. In the end it's only a way to re-start discussion within the community. So, as always, comments, ideas, rants, etc.. are welcome! :-) Signed-off-by: Dario Faggioli <raistlin@linux.it> Signed-off-by: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@gmail.com> [ Added !RT_MUTEXES build fix. ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1383831828-15501-11-git-send-email-juri.lelli@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Turn the pi-chains from plist to rb-tree, in the rt_mutex code, and provide a proper comparison function for -deadline and -priority tasks. This is done mainly because: - classical prio field of the plist is just an int, which might not be enough for representing a deadline; - manipulating such a list would become O(nr_deadline_tasks), which might be to much, as the number of -deadline task increases. Therefore, an rb-tree is used, and tasks are queued in it according to the following logic: - among two -priority (i.e., SCHED_BATCH/OTHER/RR/FIFO) tasks, the one with the higher (lower, actually!) prio wins; - among a -priority and a -deadline task, the latter always wins; - among two -deadline tasks, the one with the earliest deadline wins. Queueing and dequeueing functions are changed accordingly, for both the list of a task's pi-waiters and the list of tasks blocked on a pi-lock.

It is very likely that systems that wants/needs to use the new SCHED_DEADLINE policy also want to have the scheduling latency of the -deadline tasks under control. For this reason a new version of the scheduling wakeup latency, called "wakeup_dl", is introduced. As a consequence of applying this patch there will be three wakeup latency tracer: * "wakeup", that deals with all tasks in the system; * "wakeup_rt", that deals with -rt and -deadline tasks only; * "wakeup_dl", that deals with -deadline tasks only.

Make it possible to specify a period (different or equal than deadline) for -deadline tasks. Relative deadlines (D_i) are used on task arrivals to generate new scheduling (absolute) deadlines as "d = t + D_i", and periods (P_i) to postpone the scheduling deadlines as "d = d + P_i" when the budget is zero. This is in general useful to model (and schedule) tasks that have slow activation rates (long periods), but have to be scheduled soon once activated (short deadlines).

Juri Lelli authored
Introduces data structures relevant for implementing dynamic migration of -deadline tasks and the logic for checking if runqueues are overloaded with -deadline tasks and for choosing where a task should migrate, when it is the case. Adds also dynamic migrations to SCHED_DEADLINE, so that tasks can be moved among CPUs when necessary. It is also possible to bind a task to a (set of) CPU(s), thus restricting its capability of migrating, or forbidding migrations at all. The very same approach used in sched_rt is utilised: - -deadline tasks are kept into CPU-specific runqueues, - -deadline tasks are migrated among runqueues to achieve the following: * on an M-CPU system the M earliest deadline ready tasks are always running; * affinity/cpusets settings of all the -deadline tasks is always respected. Therefore, this very special form of "load balancing" is done with an active method, i.e., the scheduler pushes or pulls tasks between runqueues when they are woken up and/or (de)scheduled. IOW, every time a preemption occurs, the descheduled task might be sent to some other CPU (depending on its deadline) to continue executing (push). On the other hand, every time a CPU becomes idle, it might pull the second earliest deadline ready task from some other CPU. To enforce this, a pull operation is always attempted before taking any scheduling decision (pre_schedule()), as well as a push one after each scheduling decision (post_schedule()). In addition, when a task arrives or wakes up, the best CPU where to resume it is selected taking into account its affinity mask, the system topology, but also its deadline. E.g., from the scheduling point of view, the best CPU where to wake up (and also where to push) a task is the one which is running the task with the latest deadline among the M executing ones. In order to facilitate these decisions, per-runqueue "caching" of the deadlines of the currently running and of the first ready task is used. Queued but not running tasks are also parked in another rb-tree to speed-up pushes.

Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for SCHED_DEADLINE implementation. Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy are also added where they are needed. Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate the behaviour of tasks between each other. The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an instance) activates plus the relative deadline. The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline length time interval, avoiding any interference between different tasks (bandwidth isolation). Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new policy. To summarize, this patch: - introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed; - implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new scheduling class file; - provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl and the other existing scheduling classes.

Add the syscalls needed for supporting scheduling algorithms with extended scheduling parameters (e.g., SCHED_DEADLINE). In general, it makes possible to specify a periodic/sporadic task, that executes for a given amount of runtime at each instance, and is scheduled according to the urgency of their own timing constraints, i.e.: - a (maximum/typical) instance execution time, - a minimum interval between consecutive instances, - a time constraint by which each instance must be completed. Thus, both the data structure that holds the scheduling parameters of the tasks and the system calls dealing with it must be extended. Unfortunately, modifying the existing struct sched_param would break the ABI and result in potentially serious compatibility issues with legacy binaries. For these reasons, this patch: - defines the new struct sched_attr, containing all the fields that are necessary for specifying a task in the computational model described above; - defines and implements the new scheduling related syscalls that manipulate it, i.e., sched_setattr() and sched_getattr(). Syscalls are introduced for x86 (32 and 64 bits) and ARM only, as a proof of concept and for developing and testing purposes. Making them available on other architectures is straightforward. Since no "user" for these new parameters is introduced in this patch, the implementation of the new system calls is just identical to their already existing counterpart. Future patches that implement scheduling policies able to exploit the new data structure must also take care of modifying the sched_*attr() calls accordingly with their own purposes.

Thomas Hellstrom bisected a regression where erratic 3D performance is experienced on virtual machines as measured by glxgears. It identified commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") as the problem which had modified the behaviour of effective_load. Effective load calculates the difference to the system-wide load if a scheduling entity was moved to another CPU. The task group is not heavier as a result of the move but overall system load can increase/decrease as a result of the change. Commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") changed effective_load to make it suitable for calculating if a particular NUMA node was compute overloaded. To reduce the cost of the function, it assumed that a current sched entity weight of 0 was uninteresting but that is not the case. wake_affine() uses a weight of 0 for sync wakeups on the grounds that it is assuming the waking task will sleep and not contribute to load in the near future. In this case, we still want to calculate the effective load of the sched entity hierarchy. As effective_load is no longer used by task_numa_compare since commit fb13c7ee (sched/numa: Use a system-wide search to find swap/migration candidates), this patch simply restores the historical behaviour.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

In the past the IFA_PERMANENT flag indicated, that the valid and preferred lifetime where ignored. Since change fad8da3e ("ipv6 addrconf: fix preferred lifetime state-changing behavior while valid_lft is infinity") we honour at least the preferred lifetime on those addresses. As such the valid lifetime gets recalculated and updated to 0. If loopback address is added manually this problem does not occur. Also if NetworkManager manages IPv6, those addresses will get added via inet6_rtm_newaddr and thus will have a correct lifetime, too.

Starting with commit 80c33ddd "net: add might_sleep() call to napi_disable" bnx2x fails the might_sleep tests causing a stack trace to appear whenever the driver is unloaded, as local_bh_disable() is being called before napi_disable(). This changes the locking schematics related to CONFIG_NET_RX_BUSY_POLL, preventing the need for calling local_bh_disable() and thus eliminating the issue.

Helge Deller noted a few weeks ago problems with the AIO support on parisc. This change is the result of numerous iterations on how best to deal with this problem. The solution adopted here is to provide full cache coherency in a uniform manner on all parisc systems. This involves calling flush_dcache_page() on kmap operations and flush_kernel_dcache_page() on kunmap operations. As a result, the copy_user_page() and clear_user_page() functions can be removed and the overall code is simpler. The change ensures that both userspace and kernel aliases to a mapped page are invalidated and flushed. This is necessary for the correct operation of PA8800 and PA8900 based systems which do not support inequivalent aliases. With this change, I have observed no cache related issues on c8000 and rp3440. It is now possible for example to do kernel builds with "-j64" on four way systems. On systems using XFS file systems, the patch recently posted by Mikulas Patocka to "fix crash using XFS on loopback" is needed to avoid a hang caused by an uninitialized lock passed to flush_dcache_page() in the page struct.

Commit 6d9252bd (clk: Add support for power of two type dividers) merged in v3.6 added the _get_val function to convert a divisor value to a register field value depending on the flags. However it used the type u8 for the div field, causing divisors larger than 255 to be masked and the resultant clock rate to be too high. E.g. in my case an 11bit divider was supposed to divide 24.576 MHz down to 32.768KHz. The divisor was correctly calculated as 750 (0x2ee). This was masked to 238 (0xee) resulting in a frequency of 103.26KHz.
