As commit: 39f23ce0 ("sched/fair: Fix unthrottle_cfs_rq() for leaf_cfs_rq list") does in unthrottle_cfs_rq(), throttle_cfs_rq() can also use the same pattern as dequeue_task_fair().

In the case of a thread wakeup, wake_affine determines whether a core will be chosen for the thread on the socket where the thread ran previously or on the socket of the waker. This is done primarily by comparing the load of the core where th thread ran previously (prev) and the load of the waker (this). commit 11f10e54 ("sched/fair: Use load instead of runnable load in wakeup path") changed the load computation from the runnable load to the load average, where the latter includes the load of threads that have already blocked on the core. When a short-running daemon processes happens to run on prev, this change raised the situation that prev could appear to have a greater load than this, even when prev is actually idle. When prev and this are on the same socket, the idle prev is detected later, in select_idle_sibling. But if that does not hold, prev is completely ignored, causing the waking thread to move to the socket of the waker. In the case of N mostly active threads on N cores, this triggers other migrations and hurts performance. In contrast, before commit 11f10e54, the load on an idle core was 0, and in the case of a non-idle waker core, the effect of wake_affine was to select prev as the target for searching for a core for the waking thread. To avoid unnecessary migrations, extend wake_affine_idle to check whether the core where the thread previously ran is currently idle, and if so simply return that core as the target. [1] commit 11f10e54 ("sched/fair: Use load instead of runnable load in wakeup path") This particularly has an impact when using the ondemand power manager, where kworkers run every 0.004 seconds on all cores, increasing the likelihood that an idle core will be considered to have a load. The following numbers were obtained with the benchmarking tool hyperfine (https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine) on the NAS parallel benchmarks (https://www.nas.nasa.gov/publications/npb.html). The tests were run on an 80-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E7-8870 v4 @ 2.10GHz. Active (intel_pstate) and passive (intel_cpufreq) power management were used. Times are in seconds.

Florian reported that all of kernel/sched/ is rebuild when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is changed, which, while not a bug is unexpected. This is due to us including vmlinux.lds.h. Jakub explained that the problem is that we put the alignment requirement on the type instead of on a variable. Type alignment is a minimum, the compiler is free to pick any larger alignment for a specific instance of the type (eg. the variable). So force the type alignment on all individual variable definitions and remove the undesired dependency on vmlinux.lds.h.

Add comments and memory barrier to kthread_use_mm and kthread_unuse_mm to allow the effect of membarrier(2) to apply to kthreads accessing user-space memory as well. Given that no prior kthread use this guarantee and that it only affects kthreads, adding this guarantee does not affect user-space ABI. Refine the check in membarrier_global_expedited to exclude runqueues running the idle thread rather than all kthreads from the IPI cpumask. Now that membarrier_global_expedited can IPI kthreads, the scheduler also needs to update the runqueue's membarrier_state when entering lazy TLB state.

exit_mm should issue memory barriers after user-space memory accesses, before clearing current->mm, to order user-space memory accesses performed prior to exit_mm before clearing tsk->mm, which has the effect of skipping the membarrier private expedited IPIs. exit_mm should also update the runqueue's membarrier_state so membarrier global expedited IPIs are not sent when they are not needed. The membarrier system call can be issued concurrently with do_exit if we have thread groups created with CLONE_VM but not CLONE_THREAD. Here is the scenario I have in mind: Two thread groups are created, A and B. Thread group B is created by issuing clone from group A with flag CLONE_VM set, but not CLONE_THREAD. Let's assume we have a single thread within each thread group (Thread A and Thread B). The AFAIU we can have: Userspace variables: int x = 0, y = 0; CPU 0 CPU 1 Thread A Thread B (in thread group A) (in thread group B) x = 1 barrier() y = 1 exit() exit_mm() current->mm = NULL; r1 = load y membarrier() skips CPU 0 (no IPI) because its current mm is NULL r2 = load x BUG_ON(r1 == 1 && r2 == 0) Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201020134715.13909-2-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com

MAX_RT_PRIO is used only in dec_rt_tasks() -> dec_rt_prio() -> dec_rt_prio_smp() -> cpupri_set() in case of !rt_rq->rt_nr_running. I.e. it stands for a non-rt task, including the IDLE task. Commit 57785df5 ("sched: Fix task priority bug") removed code in v2.6.33 which did set the priority of the IDLE task to MAX_PRIO.

When change sched_rt_{runtime, period}_us, we validate that the new settings should at least accommodate the currently allocated -dl bandwidth: sched_rt_handler() --> sched_dl_bandwidth_validate() { new_bw = global_rt_runtime()/global_rt_period(); for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) { dl_b = dl_bw_of(cpu); if (new_bw < dl_b->total_bw) <------- ret = -EBUSY; } } But under CONFIG_SMP, dl_bw is per root domain , but not per CPU, dl_b->total_bw is the allocated bandwidth of the whole root domain. Instead, we should compare dl_b->total_bw against "cpus*new_bw", where 'cpus' is the number of CPUs of the root domain. Also, below annotation(in kernel/sched/sched.h) implied implementation only appeared in SCHED_DEADLINE v2[1], then deadline scheduler kept evolving till got merged(v9), but the annotation remains unchanged, meaningless and misleading, update it. * With respect to SMP, the bandwidth is given on a per-CPU basis, * meaning that: * - dl_bw (< 100%) is the bandwidth of the system (group) on each CPU; * - dl_total_bw array contains, in the i-eth element, the currently * allocated bandwidth on the i-eth CPU.

Replace it with seq_buf operations that prevent the buffer from being overwritten if what is being written is bigger than the buffer.

The code to try to shut up sparse warnings about questionable locking didn't shut up sparse: it made the result not parse as valid C at all, since the end result now has a label with no statement. The proper fix is to just always lock the hardware, the same way Bart did in commit 8ae17876 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Simplify the functions for dumping firmware"). That avoids the whole problem with having locking that is not statically obvious. But in the meantime, just remove the incorrect attempt at trying to avoid a sparse warning that just made things worse. This was exposed by commit 3e6efab8 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix reset of MPI firmware"), very similarly to how commit cbb01c2f ("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix MPI failure AEN (8200) handling") exposed the same problem in another place, and caused that commit 8ae17876. Please don't add code to just shut up sparse without actually fixing what sparse complains about.

This is wrong for __bootdata / __bootdata_preserved macros which want variable names to be a part of intermediate section names .boot.data.<var name> and .boot.preserved.data.<var name>. Those sections are later sorted by alignment + name and merged together into final .boot.data / .boot.preserved.data sections. Those sections must be identical in the decompressor and the decompressed kernel (that is checked during the build).

The reserved-memory overlap detection code fails to detect overlaps if either of the regions starts at address 0x0. The code explicitly checks for and ignores such regions, apparently in order to ignore dynamically allocated regions which have an address of 0x0 at this point. These dynamically allocated regions also have a size of 0x0 at this point, so fix this by removing the check and sorting the dynamically allocated regions ahead of any static regions at address 0x0. For example, there are two overlaps in this case but they are not currently reported: foo@0 { reg = <0x0 0x2000>; }; bar@0 { reg = <0x0 0x1000>; }; baz@1000 { reg = <0x1000 0x1000>; }; quux { size = <0x1000>; }; but they are after this patch: OF: reserved mem: OVERLAP DETECTED! bar@0 (0x00000000--0x00001000) overlaps with foo@0 (0x00000000--0x00002000) OF: reserved mem: OVERLAP DETECTED! foo@0 (0x00000000--0x00002000) overlaps with baz@1000 (0x00001000--0x00002000) Signed-off-by: Vincent Whitchurch <vincent.whitchurch@axis.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/ded6fd6b47b58741aabdcc6967f73eca6a3f311e.1603273666.git-series.vincent.whitchurch@axis.comSigned-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
