2015-06-07preempt: Use preempt_schedule_context() as the official tracing preemption pointFrederic Weisbecker
preempt_schedule_context() is a tracing safe preemption point but it's only used when CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING=y. Other configs have tracing recursion issues since commit: b30f0e3ffedf ("sched/preempt: Optimize preemption operations on __schedule() callers") introduced function based preemp_count_*() ops. Lets make it available on all configs and give it a more appropriate name for its new position.

2015-06-07sched: Make preempt_schedule_context() function-tracing safeFrederic Weisbecker
Since function tracing disables preemption, it needs a safe preemption point to use when preemption is re-enabled without worrying about tracing recursion. Ie: to avoid tracing recursion, that preemption point can't be traced (use of notrace qualifier) and it can't call any traceable function before that preemption point disables preemption itself, which disarms the recursion. preempt_schedule() was fine until commit: b30f0e3ffedf ("sched/preempt: Optimize preemption operations on __schedule() callers") because PREEMPT_ACTIVE (which has the property to disable preemption and this disarm tracing preemption recursion) was set before calling any further function. But that commit introduced the use of preempt_count_add/sub() functions to set PREEMPT_ACTIVE and because these functions are called before preemption gets a chance to be disabled, we have a tracing recursion. preempt_schedule_context() is one of the possible preemption functions used by tracing. Its special purpose is to avoid tracing recursion against context tracking. Lets enhance this function to become more generally tracing safe by disabling preemption with raw accessors, such that no function is called before preemption gets disabled and disarm the tracing recursion. This function is going to become the specific tracing-safe preemption point in further commit.

2015-05-19sched/numa: Reduce conflict between fbq_classify_rq() and migrationRik van Riel
It is possible for fbq_classify_rq() to indicate that a CPU has tasks that should be moved to another NUMA node, but for migrate_improves_locality and migrate_degrades_locality to not identify those tasks. This patch always gives preference to preferred node evaluations, and only checks the number of faults when evaluating moves between two non-preferred nodes on a larger NUMA system. On a two node system, the number of faults is never evaluated. Either a task is about to be pulled off its preferred node, or migrated onto it.

2015-05-19sched/preempt, mm/fault: Count pagefault_disable() levels in pagefault_disabledDavid Hildenbrand
Until now, pagefault_disable()/pagefault_enabled() used the preempt count to track whether in an environment with pagefaults disabled (can be queried via in_atomic()). This patch introduces a separate counter in task_struct to count the level of pagefault_disable() calls. We'll keep manipulating the preempt count to retain compatibility to existing pagefault handlers. It is now possible to verify whether in a pagefault_disable() envionment by calling pagefault_disabled(). In contrast to in_atomic() it will not be influenced by preempt_enable()/preempt_disable(). This patch is based on a patch from Ingo Molnar.

2015-05-19sched/preempt: Optimize preemption operations on __schedule() callersFrederic Weisbecker
__schedule() disables preemption and some of its callers (the preempt_schedule*() family) also set PREEMPT_ACTIVE. So we have two preempt_count() modifications that could be performed at once. Lets remove the preemption disablement from __schedule() and pull this responsibility to its callers in order to optimize preempt_count() operations in a single place.

2015-05-18sched: always use blk_schedule_flush_plug in io_schedule_outShaohua Li
block plug callback could sleep, so we introduce a parameter 'from_schedule' and corresponding drivers can use it to destinguish a schedule plug flush or a plug finish. Unfortunately io_schedule_out still uses blk_flush_plug(). This causes below output (Note, I added a might_sleep() in raid1_unplug to make it trigger faster, but the whole thing doesn't matter if I add might_sleep). In raid1/10, this can cause deadlock. This patch makes io_schedule_out always uses blk_schedule_flush_plug. This should only impact drivers (as far as I know, raid 1/10) which are sensitive to the 'from_schedule' parameter.

2015-05-18watchdog: Fix merge 'conflict'Peter Zijlstra
Two watchdog changes that came through different trees had a non conflicting conflict, that is, one changed the semantics of a variable but no actual code conflict happened. So the merge appeared fine, but the resulting code did not behave as expected. Commit 195daf665a62 ("watchdog: enable the new user interface of the watchdog mechanism") changes the semantics of watchdog_user_enabled, which thereafter is only used by the functions introduced by b3738d293233 ("watchdog: Add watchdog enable/disable all functions"). There further appears to be a distinct lack of serialization between setting and using watchdog_enabled, so perhaps we should wrap the {en,dis}able_all() things in watchdog_proc_mutex. This patch fixes a s2r failure reported by Michal; which I cannot readily explain. But this does make the code internally consistent again.

2015-05-13ktime: Fix ktime_divns to do signed divisionJohn Stultz
It was noted that the 32bit implementation of ktime_divns() was doing unsigned division and didn't properly handle negative values. And when a ktime helper was changed to utilize ktime_divns, it caused a regression on some IR blasters. See the following bugzilla for details: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200353 This patch fixes the problem in ktime_divns by checking and preserving the sign bit, and then reapplying it if appropriate after the division, it also changes the return type to a s64 to make it more obvious this is expected. Nicolas also pointed out that negative dividers would cause infinite loops on 32bit systems, negative dividers is unlikely for users of this function, but out of caution this patch adds checks for negative dividers for both 32-bit (BUG_ON) and 64-bit(WARN_ON) versions to make sure no such use cases creep in.

2015-05-08futex: Implement lockless wakeupsDavidlohr Bueso
Given the overall futex architecture, any chance of reducing hb->lock contention is welcome. In this particular case, using wake-queues to enable lockless wakeups addresses very much real world performance concerns, even cases of soft-lockups in cases of large amounts of blocked tasks (which is not hard to find in large boxes, using but just a handful of futex). At the lowest level, this patch can reduce latency of a single thread attempting to acquire hb->lock in highly contended scenarios by a up to 2x. At lower counts of nr_wake there are no regressions, confirming, of course, that the wake_q handling overhead is practically non existent. For instance, while a fair amount of variation, the extended pef-bench wakeup benchmark shows for a 20 core machine the following avg per-thread time to wakeup its share of tasks: nr_thr ms-before ms-after 16 0.0590 0.0215 32 0.0396 0.0220 48 0.0417 0.0182 64 0.0536 0.0236 80 0.0414 0.0097 96 0.0672 0.0152 Naturally, this can cause spurious wakeups. However there is no core code that cannot handle them afaict, and furthermore tglx does have the point that other events can already trigger them anyway.

2015-05-08sched: Implement lockless wake-queuesPeter Zijlstra
This is useful for locking primitives that can effect multiple wakeups per operation and want to avoid lock internal lock contention by delaying the wakeups until we've released the lock internal locks. Alternatively it can be used to avoid issuing multiple wakeups, and thus save a few cycles, in packet processing. Queue all target tasks and wakeup once you've processed all packets. That way you avoid waking the target task multiple times if there were multiple packets for the same task. Properties of a wake_q are: - Lockless, as queue head must reside on the stack. - Being a queue, maintains wakeup order passed by the callers. This can be important for otherwise, in scenarios where highly contended locks could affect any reliance on lock fairness. - A queued task cannot be added again until it is woken up. This patch adds the needed infrastructure into the scheduler code and uses the new wake_list to delay the futex wakeups until after we've released the hash bucket locks.

2015-05-08sched, timer: Use the atomic task_cputime in thread_group_cputimerJason Low
Recent optimizations were made to thread_group_cputimer to improve its scalability by keeping track of cputime stats without a lock. However, the values were open coded to the structure, causing them to be at a different abstraction level from the regular task_cputime structure. Furthermore, any subsequent similar optimizations would not be able to share the new code, since they are specific to thread_group_cputimer. This patch adds the new task_cputime_atomic data structure (introduced in the previous patch in the series) to thread_group_cputimer for keeping track of the cputime atomically, which also helps generalize the code.

2015-05-08sched, timer: Replace spinlocks with atomics in thread_group_cputimer(), to ↵Jason Low
improve scalability While running a database workload, we found a scalability issue with itimers. Much of the problem was caused by the thread_group_cputimer spinlock. Each time we account for group system/user time, we need to obtain a thread_group_cputimer's spinlock to update the timers. On larger systems (such as a 16 socket machine), this caused more than 30% of total time spent trying to obtain this kernel lock to update these group timer stats. This patch converts the timers to 64-bit atomic variables and use atomic add to update them without a lock. With this patch, the percent of total time spent updating thread group cputimer timers was reduced from 30% down to less than 1%. Note: On 32-bit systems using the generic 64-bit atomics, this causes sample_group_cputimer() to take locks 3 times instead of just 1 time. However, we tested this patch on a 32-bit system ARM system using the generic atomics and did not find the overhead to be much of an issue. An explanation for why this isn't an issue is that 32-bit systems usually have small numbers of CPUs, and cacheline contention from extra spinlocks called periodically is not really apparent on smaller systems.

2015-05-08sched/core: Fix regression in cpuset_cpu_inactive() for suspendOmar Sandoval
Commit 3c18d447b3b3 ("sched/core: Check for available DL bandwidth in cpuset_cpu_inactive()"), a SCHED_DEADLINE bugfix, had a logic error that caused a regression in setting a CPU inactive during suspend. I ran into this when a program was failing pthread_setaffinity_np() with EINVAL after a suspend+wake up. A simple reproducer: $ ./a.out sched_setaffinity: Success $ systemctl suspend $ ./a.out sched_setaffinity: Invalid argument ... where ./a.out is: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <errno.h> #include <sched.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(void) { long num_cores; cpu_set_t cpu_set; int ret; num_cores = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN); CPU_ZERO(&cpu_set); CPU_SET(num_cores - 1, &cpu_set); errno = 0; ret = sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(cpu_set), &cpu_set); perror("sched_setaffinity"); return ret ? EXIT_FAILURE : EXIT_SUCCESS; } The mistake is that suspend is handled in the action == CPU_DOWN_PREPARE_FROZEN case of the switch statement in cpuset_cpu_inactive(). However, the commit in question masked out CPU_TASKS_FROZEN from the action, making this case dead. The fix is straightforward.

2015-04-29cpuidle: Run tick_broadcast_exit() with disabled interruptsRafael J. Wysocki
Commit 335f49196fd6 (sched/idle: Use explicit broadcast oneshot control function) replaced clockevents_notify() invocations in cpuidle_idle_call() with direct calls to tick_broadcast_enter() and tick_broadcast_exit(), but it overlooked the fact that interrupts were already enabled before calling the latter which led to functional breakage on systems using idle states with the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag set. Fix that by moving the invocations of tick_broadcast_enter() and tick_broadcast_exit() down into cpuidle_enter_state() where interrupts are still disabled when tick_broadcast_exit() is called. Also ensure that interrupts will be disabled before running tick_broadcast_exit() even if they have been enabled by the idle state's ->enter callback. Trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in that case, as we generally don't want that to happen for states with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set.

2015-04-27bpf: fix 64-bit divideAlexei Starovoitov
ALU64_DIV instruction should be dividing 64-bit by 64-bit, whereas do_div() does 64-bit by 32-bit divide. x64 and arm64 JITs correctly implement 64 by 64 unsigned divide. llvm BPF backend emits code assuming that ALU64_DIV does 64 by 64.

2015-04-27x86: pvclock: Really remove the sched notifier for cross-cpu migrationsPaolo Bonzini
This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca17c54817cf814b4b5aa60478c6df27 and 80f7fdb1c7f0f9266421f823964fd1962681f6ce. The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it with synchronized TSC. Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare that it's mostly theoretical. As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task migration notifier. Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

2015-04-24clockevents: Shutdown detached clockevent deviceViresh Kumar
A clockevent device is marked DETACHED when it is replaced by another clockevent device. The device is shutdown properly for drivers that implement legacy ->set_mode() callback, as we call ->set_mode() for CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED as well. But for the new per-state callback interface, we skip shutting down the device, as we thought its an internal state change. That wasn't correct. The effect is that the device is left programmed in oneshot or periodic mode. Fall-back to 'case CLOCK_EVT_STATE_SHUTDOWN', to shutdown the device.

2015-04-23kexec: allocate the kexec control page with KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFPMartin Schwidefsky
Introduce KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFP to allow the architecture code to override the gfp flags of the allocation for the kexec control page. The loop in kimage_alloc_normal_control_pages allocates pages with GFP_KERNEL until a page is found that happens to have an address smaller than the KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT. On systems with a large memory size but a small KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT the loop will keep allocating memory until the oom killer steps in.
