Pull scheduler fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A couple of scheduler fixes:
- Make the conditional update of the overutilized state work
correctly by caching the relevant flags state before overwriting
them and checking them afterwards.
- Fix a data race in the wakeup path which caused loadavg on ARM64
platforms to become a random number generator.
- Fix the ordering of the iowaiter accounting operations so it can't
be decremented before it is incremented.
- Fix a bug in the deadline scheduler vs. priority inheritance when a
non-deadline task A has inherited the parameters of a deadline task
B and then blocks on a non-deadline task C.
The second inheritance step used the static deadline parameters of
task A, which are usually 0, instead of further propagating task
B's parameters. The zero initialized parameters trigger a bug in
the deadline scheduler"

Glenn reported that "an application [he developed produces] a BUG in
deadline.c when a SCHED_DEADLINE task contends with CFS tasks on nested
PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT mutexes. I believe the bug is triggered when a CFS
task that was boosted by a SCHED_DEADLINE task boosts another CFS task
(nested priority inheritance).

He also provided a simple reproducer creating the situation below:
So the execution order of locking steps are the following
(N1 and N2 are non-deadline tasks. D1 is a deadline task. M1 and M2
are mutexes that are enabled * with priority inheritance.)
Time moves forward as this timeline goes down:
N1 N2 D1
| | |
| | |
Lock(M1) | |
| | |
| Lock(M2) |
| | |
| | Lock(M2)
| | |
| Lock(M1) |
| (!!bug triggered!) |
Daniel reported a similar situation as well, by just letting ksoftirqd
run with DEADLINE (and eventually block on a mutex).
Problem is that boosted entities (Priority Inheritance) use static
DEADLINE parameters of the top priority waiter. However, there might be
cases where top waiter could be a non-DEADLINE entity that is currently
boosted by a DEADLINE entity from a different lock chain (i.e., nested
priority chains involving entities of non-DEADLINE classes). In this
case, top waiter static DEADLINE parameters could be null (initialized
to 0 at fork()) and replenish_dl_entity() would hit a BUG().
Fix this by keeping track of the original donor and using its parameters
when a task is boosted.

Note that because we can now do ttwu_queue_wakelist() before

enqueue_task_fair() attempts to skip the overutilized update for new
tasks as their util_avg is not accurate yet. However, the flag we check
to do so is overwritten earlier on in the function, which makes the
condition pretty much a nop.
Fix this by saving the flag early on.

"A set of scheduler fixes:

the same logic as the wakeup path to spread tasks in the LLC domain
- Prefer the CPU on which a task run last over the local CPU in the

Reading /proc/sys/kernel/sched_domain/cpu*/domain0/flags mutliple times
with small reads causes oopses with slub corruption issues because the kfree is
free'ing an offset from a previous allocation. Fix this by adding in a new
pointer 'buf' for the allocation and kfree and use the temporary pointer tmp
to handle memory copies of the buf offsets.

During fast wakeup path, scheduler always check whether local or prev
cpus are good candidates for the task before looking for other cpus in
the domain. With commit b7a331615d25 ("sched/fair: Add asymmetric CPU
capacity wakeup scan") the heterogenous system gains a dedicated path
but doesn't try to reuse prev cpu whenever possible. If the previous
cpu is idle and belong to the LLC domain, we should check it 1st
before looking for another cpu because it stays one of the best
candidate and this also stabilizes task placement on the system.
This change aligns asymmetric path behavior with symmetric one and reduces
cases where the task migrates across all cpus of the sd_asym_cpucapacity
domains at wakeup.
This change does not impact normal EAS mode but only the overloaded case or
when EAS is not used.

Also read the uclamped value of task's utilization at most twice instead
instead each time we compare task's utilization with cpu's capacity.

schbench shows latency increase for 95 percentile above since:
commit 0b0695f2b34a ("sched/fair: Rework load_balance()")
Align the behavior of the load balancer with the wake up path, which tries
to select an idle CPU which belongs to the LLC for a waking task.
calculate_imbalance() will use nr_running instead of the spare
capacity when CPUs share resources (ie cache) at the domain level. This
will ensure a better spread of tasks on idle CPUs.
Running schbench on a hikey (8cores arm64) shows the problem:

The cpufreq policy's frequency limits (min/max) can get changed at any
point of time, while schedutil is trying to update the next frequency.
Though the schedutil governor has necessary locking and support in place
to make sure we don't miss any of those updates, there is a corner case
where the governor will find that the CPU is already running at the
desired frequency and so may skip an update.
For example, consider that the CPU can run at 1 GHz, 1.2 GHz and 1.4 GHz
and is running at 1 GHz currently. Schedutil tries to update the
frequency to 1.2 GHz, during this time the policy limits get changed as
policy->min = 1.4 GHz. As schedutil (and cpufreq core) does clamp the
frequency at various instances, we will eventually set the frequency to
1.4 GHz, while we will save 1.2 GHz in sg_policy->next_freq.
Now lets say the policy limits get changed back at this time with
policy->min as 1 GHz. The next time schedutil is invoked by the
scheduler, we will reevaluate the next frequency (because
need_freq_update will get set due to limits change event) and lets say
we want to set the frequency to 1.2 GHz again. At this point
sugov_update_next_freq() will find the next_freq == current_freq and
will abort the update, while the CPU actually runs at 1.4 GHz.
Until now need_freq_update was used as a flag to indicate that the
policy's frequency limits have changed, and that we should consider the
new limits while reevaluating the next frequency.
This patch fixes the above mentioned issue by extending the purpose of
the need_freq_update flag. If this flag is set now, the schedutil
governor will not try to abort a frequency change even if next_freq ==
current_freq.
As similar behavior is required in the case of
CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS flag as well, need_freq_update will never be
set to false if that flag is set for the driver.
We also don't need to consider the need_freq_update flag in
sugov_update_single() anymore to handle the special case of busy CPU, as
we won't abort a frequency update anymore.

Because sugov_update_next_freq() may skip a frequency update even if
the need_freq_update flag has been set for the policy at hand, policy
limits updates may not take effect as expected.
For example, if the intel_pstate driver operates in the passive mode
with HWP enabled, it needs to update the HWP min and max limits when
the policy min and max limits change, respectively, but that may not
happen if the target frequency does not change along with the limit
at hand. In particular, if the policy min is changed first, causing
the target frequency to be adjusted to it, and the policy max limit
is changed later to the same value, the HWP max limit will not be
updated to follow it as expected, because the target frequency is
still equal to the policy min limit and it will not change until
that limit is updated.
To address this issue, modify get_next_freq() to let the driver
callback run if the CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS cpufreq driver flag
is set regardless of whether or not the new frequency to set is
equal to the previous one.

We have the raw cached freq to reduce the chance in calling cpufreq
driver where it could be costly in some arch/SoC.
Currently, the raw cached freq is reset in sugov_update_single() when
it avoids frequency reduction (which is not desirable sometimes), but
it is better to restore the previous value of it in that case,
because it may not change in the next cycle and it is not necessary
to change the CPU frequency then.

A previous commit changed the notification mode from true/false to an
int, allowing notify-no, notify-yes, or signal-notify. This was
backwards compatible in the sense that any existing true/false user
would translate to either 0 (on notification sent) or 1, the latter
which mapped to TWA_RESUME. TWA_SIGNAL was assigned a value of 2.
Clean this up properly, and define a proper enum for the notification
mode. Now we have:
- TWA_NONE. This is 0, same as before the original change, meaning no
notification requested.
- TWA_RESUME. This is 1, same as before the original change, meaning
that we use TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME.
- TWA_SIGNAL. This uses TIF_SIGPENDING/JOBCTL_TASK_WORK for the
notification.
Clean up all the callers, switching their 0/1/false/true to using the
appropriate TWA_* mode for notifications.

a zero-length array cpumask[0] has been replaced with cpumask[].
But there is still a cpumask[0] in 'struct sched_group_capacity'
which was missed.
The point of using [] instead of [0] is that with [] the compiler will

stress-ng has a test (stress-ng --cyclic) that creates a set of threads
under SCHED_DEADLINE with the following parameters:
dl_runtime = 10000 (10 us)
dl_deadline = 100000 (100 us)
dl_period = 100000 (100 us)
These parameters are very aggressive. When using a system without HRTICK
set, these threads can easily execute longer than the dl_runtime because
the throttling happens with 1/HZ resolution.
During the main part of the test, the system works just fine because
the workload does not try to run over the 10 us. The problem happens at
the end of the test, on the exit() path. During exit(), the threads need
to do some cleanups that require real-time mutex locks, mainly those
related to memory management, resulting in this scenario:
Note: locks are rt_mutexes...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
TASK A: TASK B: TASK C:
activation
activation
activation
lock(a): OK! lock(b): OK!
<overrun runtime>
lock(a)
-> block (task A owns it)
-> self notice/set throttled
+--< -> arm replenished timer
| switch-out
| lock(b)
| -> <C prio > B prio>
| -> boost TASK B
| unlock(a) switch-out
| -> handle lock a to B
| -> wakeup(B)
| -> B is throttled:
| -> do not enqueue
| switch-out
|
|
+---------------------> replenishment timer
-> TASK B is boosted:
-> do not enqueue
------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOOM: TASK B is runnable but !enqueued, holding TASK C: the system
crashes with hung task C.
This problem is avoided by removing the throttle state from the boosted
thread while boosting it (by TASK A in the example above), allowing it to
be queued and run boosted.
The next replenishment will take care of the runtime overrun, pushing
the deadline further away. See the "while (dl_se->runtime <= 0)" on
replenish_dl_entity() for more information.

Currently, pick_next_entity(...) has the following structure
(simplified):
[...]
if (last_buddy_ok())
result = last_buddy;
if (next_buddy_ok())
result = next_buddy;
[...]
The intended behavior is to prefer next buddy over last buddy;
the current code somewhat obfuscates this, and also wastes
cycles checking the last buddy when eventually the next buddy is
picked up.
So this patch refactors two 'ifs' above into

This patchset is based on Google-internal RSEQ work done by Paul
Turner and Andrew Hunter.
When working with per-CPU RSEQ-based memory allocations, it is
sometimes important to make sure that a global memory location is no
longer accessed from RSEQ critical sections. For example, there can be
two per-CPU lists, one is "active" and accessed per-CPU, while another
one is inactive and worked on asynchronously "off CPU" (e.g. garbage
collection is performed). Then at some point the two lists are
swapped, and a fast RCU-like mechanism is required to make sure that
the previously active list is no longer accessed.
This patch introduces such a mechanism: in short, membarrier() syscall
issues an IPI to a CPU, restarting a potentially active RSEQ critical
section on the CPU.

Barry Song noted the following
Something is wrong. In find_busiest_group(), we are checking if
src has higher load, however, in task_numa_find_cpu(), we are
checking if dst will have higher load after balancing. It seems
it is not sensible to check src.
It maybe cause wrong imbalance value, for example,
if dst_running = env->dst_stats.nr_running + 1 results in 3 or
above, and src_running = env->src_stats.nr_running - 1 results
in 1;
The current code is thinking imbalance as 0 since src_running is
smaller than 2. This is inconsistent with load balancer.
Basically, in find_busiest_group(), the NUMA imbalance is ignored if moving
a task "from an almost idle domain" to a "domain with spare capacity". This
patch forbids movement "from a misplaced domain" to "an almost idle domain"
as that is closer to what the CPU load balancer expects.
This patch is not a universal win. The old behaviour was intended to allow
a task from an almost idle NUMA node to migrate to its preferred node if
the destination had capacity but there are corner cases. For example,
a NAS compute load could be parallelised to use 1/3rd of available CPUs
but not all those potential tasks are active at all times allowing this
logic to trigger. An obvious example is specjbb 2005 running various
numbers of warehouses on a 2 socket box with 80 cpus.

The performance at the mid-point is better but not universally better. The
patch is a mixed bag depending on the workload, machine and overall
levels of utilisation. Sometimes it's better (sometimes much better),
other times it is worse (sometimes much worse). Given that there isn't a
universally good decision in this section and more people seem to prefer
the patch then it may be best to keep the LB decisions consistent and
revisit imbalance handling when the load balancer code changes settle down.
Jirka Hladky added the following observation.
Our results are mostly in line with what you see. We observe
big gains (20-50%) when the system is loaded to 1/3 of the
maximum capacity and mixed results at the full load - some
workloads benefit from the patch at the full load, others not,
but performance changes at the full load are mostly within the
noise of results (+/-5%). Overall, we think this patch is helpful.

The busy_factor, which increases load balance interval when a cpu is busy,
is set to 32 by default. This value generates some huge LB interval on
large system like the THX2 made of 2 node x 28 cores x 4 threads.
For such system, the interval increases from 112ms to 3584ms at MC level.
And from 228ms to 7168ms at NUMA level.
Even on smaller system, a lower busy factor has shown improvement on the
fair distribution of the running time so let reduce it for all.

sched domains tend to trigger simultaneously the load balance loop but
the larger domains often need more time to collect statistics. This
slowness makes the larger domain trying to detach tasks from a rq whereas
tasks already migrated somewhere else at a sub-domain level. This is not
a real problem for idle LB because the period of smaller domains will
increase with its CPUs being busy and this will let time for higher ones
to pulled tasks. But this becomes a problem when all CPUs are already busy
because all domains stay synced when they trigger their LB.
A simple way to minimize simultaneous LB of all domains is to decrement the
the busy interval by 1 jiffies. Because of the busy_factor, the interval of
larger domain will not be a multiple of smaller ones anymore.

The 25% default imbalance threshold for DIE and NUMA domain is large
enough to generate significant unfairness between threads. A typical
example is the case of 11 threads running on 2x4 CPUs. The imbalance of
20% between the 2 groups of 4 cores is just low enough to not trigger
the load balance between the 2 groups. We will have always the same 6
threads on one group of 4 CPUs and the other 5 threads on the other
group of CPUS. With a fair time sharing in each group, we ends up with
+20% running time for the group of 5 threads.
Consider decreasing the imbalance threshold for overloaded case where we
use the load to balance task and to ensure fair time sharing.

Some UCs like 9 always running tasks on 8 CPUs can't be balanced and the
load balancer currently migrates the waiting task between the CPUs in an
almost random manner. The success of a rq pulling a task depends of the
value of nr_balance_failed of its domains and its ability to be faster
than others to detach it. This behavior results in an unfair distribution
of the running time between tasks because some CPUs will run most of the
time, if not always, the same task whereas others will share their time
between several tasks.
Instead of using nr_balance_failed as a boolean to relax the condition
for detaching task, the LB will use nr_balanced_failed to relax the
threshold between the tasks'load and the imbalance. This mecanism
prevents the same rq or domain to always win the load balance fight.

In the file fair.c, sometims update_tg_load_avg(cfs_rq, 0) is used,
sometimes update_tg_load_avg(cfs_rq, false) is used.
update_tg_load_avg() has the parameter force, but in current code,
it never set 1 or true to it, so remove the force parameter.

We've met problems that occasionally tasks with full cpumask
(e.g. by putting it into a cpuset or setting to full affinity)
were migrated to our isolated cpus in production environment.
After some analysis, we found that it is due to the current
select_idle_smt() not considering the sched_domain mask.
Steps to reproduce on my 31-CPU hyperthreads machine:
1. with boot parameter: "isolcpus=domain,2-31"
(thread lists: 0,16 and 1,17)
2. cgcreate -g cpu:test; cgexec -g cpu:test "test_threads"
3. some threads will be migrated to the isolated cpu16~17.
Fix it by checking the valid domain mask in select_idle_smt().
Fixes: 10e2f1acd010 ("sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings())

The RT_RUNTIME_SHARE sched feature enables the sharing of rt_runtime
between CPUs, allowing a CPU to run a real-time task up to 100% of the
time while leaving more space for non-real-time tasks to run on the CPU
that lend rt_runtime.
The problem is that a CPU can easily borrow enough rt_runtime to allow
a spinning rt-task to run forever, starving per-cpu tasks like kworkers,
which are non-real-time by design.
This patch disables RT_RUNTIME_SHARE by default, a |
