      sched/deadline: Fix a bug in dl_overflow() · fec148c0
      Xunlei Pang authored
      I got a minus(very big) dl_b->total_bw during my deadline tests.
      
          # grep dl /proc/sched_debug
          dl_rq[0]:
          .dl_nr_running                 : 0
          .dl_bw->bw                     : 996147
          .dl_bw->total_bw               : -222297900
      
      Something unusual must have happened.
      
      After some digging, I finally noticed that when changing a deadline
      task to normal(cfs), and changing it back to deadline immediately,
      after it died, we will got the wrong dl_bw->total_bw.
      
      The root cause is in dl_overflow(), it has:
          if (new_bw == p->dl.dl_bw)
      	return 0;
      
      1) When a deadline task is changed to !deadline task, it will start
         dl timer in switched_from_dl(), and retain previous deadline parameter
         till the timer expires.
      
      2) If we change it back to deadline with the same bandwidth parameter
         before the timer expires, as it keeps the old bandwidth although it
         is not a deadline task. dl_overflow() simply returns success without
         updating the right data, and got the wrong dl_bw->total_bw.
      
      The solution is simple, if @p is not deadline, don't return.

      sched/fair: Optimize !CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON CPU load updates · 9fd81dd5
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Some code in CPU load update only concern NO_HZ configs but it is
      built on all configurations. When NO_HZ isn't built, that code is harmless
      but just happens to take some useless ressources in CPU and memory:
      
      1) one useless field in struct rq
      2) jiffies record on every tick that is never used (cpu_load_update_periodic)
      3) decay_load_missed is called two times on every tick to eventually
         return immediately with no action taken. And that function is dead
         code.
      
      For pure optimization purposes, lets conditionally build the NO_HZ
      related code.

      sched/fair: Correctly handle nohz ticks CPU load accounting · 1f41906a
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Ticks can happen while the CPU is in dynticks-idle or dynticks-singletask
      mode. In fact "nohz" or "dynticks" only mean that we exit the periodic
      mode and we try to minimize the ticks as much as possible. The nohz
      subsystem uses a confusing terminology with the internal state
      "ts->tick_stopped" which is also available through its public interface
      with tick_nohz_tick_stopped(). This is a misnomer as the tick is instead
      reduced with the best effort rather than stopped. In the best case the
      tick can indeed be actually stopped but there is no guarantee about that.
      If a timer needs to fire one second later, a tick will fire while the
      CPU is in nohz mode and this is a very common scenario.
      
      Now this confusion happens to be a problem with CPU load updates:
      cpu_load_update_active() doesn't handle nohz ticks correctly because it
      assumes that ticks are completely stopped in nohz mode and that
      cpu_load_update_active() can't be called in dynticks mode. When that
      happens, the whole previous tickless load is ignored and the function
      just records the load for the current tick, ignoring potentially long
      idle periods behind.
      
      In order to solve this, we could account the current load for the
      previous nohz time but there is a risk that we account the load of a
      task that got freshly enqueued for the whole nohz period.
      
      So instead, lets record the dynticks load on nohz frame entry so we know
      what to record in case of nohz ticks, then use this record to account
      the tickless load on nohz ticks and nohz frame end.

      sched/fair: Gather CPU load functions under a more conventional namespace · cee1afce
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      The CPU load update related functions have a weak naming convention
      currently, starting with update_cpu_load_*() which isn't ideal as
      "update" is a very generic concept.
      
      Since two of these functions are public already (and a third is to come)
      that's enough to introduce a more conventional naming scheme. So let's
      do the following rename instead:
      
      	update_cpu_load_*() -> cpu_load_update_*()

      sched/fair: Call cpufreq hook in additional paths · a2c6c91f
      Steve Muckle authored
      The cpufreq hook should be called any time the root CFS rq utilization
      changes. This can occur when a task is switched to or from the fair
      class, or a task moves between groups or CPUs, but these paths
      currently do not call the cpufreq hook.
      
      Fix this by adding the hook to attach_entity_load_avg() and
      detach_entity_load_avg().

      sched/fair: Fix asym packing to select correct CPU · 1f621e02
      Srikar Dronamraju authored
      When asymmetric packing is set in the sched_domain and target CPU is
      busy, update_sd_pick_busiest() may not select the busiest runqueue.
      When target CPU is busy, find_busiest_group() will ignore checks for
      asym packing and may continue to load balance using the currently
      selected not-the-busiest runqueue as source runqueue.
      Selecting the busiest runqueue as source when the target CPU is busy,
      should result in achieving much better load balance.
      
      Also when target CPU is not busy and asymmetric packing is set in sd,
      select higher CPU as source CPU for load balancing.
      
      While doing this change, move the check to see if target CPU is busy
      into check_asym_packing().
      
      The extent of performance benefit from this change decreases with the
      increasing load. However there is benefit in undercommit as well as
      overcommit conditions.

      Pull parisc ftrace fixes from Helge Deller:
       "This is (most likely) the last pull request for v4.6 for the parisc
        architecture.
      
        It fixes the FTRACE feature for parisc, which is horribly broken since
         quite some time and doesn't even compile.  This patch just fixes the
        bare minimum (it actually removes more lines than it adds), so that
        the function tracer works again on 32- and 64bit kernels.
      
        I've queued up additional patches on top of this patch which e.g. add
        the syscall tracer, but those have to wait for the merge window for
        v4.7."

      libnvdimm, pmem: clarify the write+clear_poison+write flow · 0a370d26
      Dan Williams authored
      The ACPI specification does not specify the state of data after a clear
      poison operation.  Potential future libnvdimm bus implementations for
      other architectures also might not specify or disagree on the state of
      data after clear poison.  Clarify why we write twice.

      block: loop: fix filesystem corruption in case of aio/dio · a7297a6a
      Ming Lei authored
      Starting from commit e36f6204(block: split bios to max possible length),
      block core starts to split bio in the middle of bvec.
      
      Unfortunately loop dio/aio doesn't consider this situation, and
      always treat 'iter.iov_offset' as zero. Then filesystem corruption
      is observed.
      
      This patch figures out the offset of the base bvevc via
      'bio->bi_iter.bi_bvec_done' and fixes the issue by passing the offset
      to iov iterator.
      
      Fixes: e36f6204 (block: split bios to max possible length)
