sched/rt: Do not pull from current CPU if only one CPU to pull
Daniel Wagner reported a crash on the BeagleBone Black SoC.
This is a single CPU architecture, and does not have a functional
arch_send_call_function_single_ipi() implementation which can crash
the kernel if that is called.
As it only has one CPU, it shouldn't be called, but if the kernel is
compiled for SMP, the push/pull RT scheduling logic now calls it for
irq_work if the one CPU is overloaded, it can use that function to call
itself and crash the kernel.
Ideally, we should disable the SCHED_FEAT(RT_PUSH_IPI) if the system
only has a single CPU. But SCHED_FEAT is a constant if sched debugging
is turned off. Another fix can also be used, and this should also help
with normal SMP machines. That is, do not initiate the pull code if
there's only one RT overloaded CPU, and that CPU happens to be the
current CPU that is scheduling in a lower priority task.
Even on a system with many CPUs, if there's many RT tasks waiting to
run on a single CPU, and that CPU schedules in another RT task of lower
priority, it will initiate the PULL logic in case there's a higher
priority RT task on another CPU that is waiting to run. But if there is
no other CPU with waiting RT tasks, it will initiate the RT pull logic
on itself (as it still has RT tasks waiting to run). This is a wasted
effort.
Not only does this help with SMP code where the current CPU is the only
one with RT overloaded tasks, it should also solve the issue that
Daniel encountered, because it will prevent the PULL logic from
executing, as there's only one CPU on the system, and the check added
here will cause it to exit the RT pull code.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

sched/rt: Simplify the IPI based RT balancing logic
When a CPU lowers its priority (schedules out a high priority task for a
lower priority one), a check is made to see if any other CPU has overloaded
RT tasks (more than one). It checks the rto_mask to determine this and if so
it will request to pull one of those tasks to itself if the non running RT
task is of higher priority than the new priority of the next task to run on
the current CPU.
When we deal with large number of CPUs, the original pull logic suffered
from large lock contention on a single CPU run queue, which caused a huge
latency across all CPUs. This was caused by only having one CPU having
overloaded RT tasks and a bunch of other CPUs lowering their priority. To
solve this issue, commit:

sched: cpufreq: Allow remote cpufreq callbacks
With Android UI and benchmarks the latency of cpufreq response to certain scheduling events can become very critical. Currently, callbacks into cpufreq governors are only made from the scheduler if the target CPU of the event is the same as the current CPU. This means there are certain situations where a target CPU may not run the cpufreq governor for some time. One testcase to show this behavior is where a task starts running on CPU0, then a new task is also spawned on CPU0 by a task on CPU1. If the system is configured such that the new tasks should receive maximum demand initially, this should result in CPU0 increasing frequency immediately. But because of the above mentioned limitation though, this does not occur. This patch updates the scheduler core to call the cpufreq callbacks for remote CPUs as well. The schedutil, ondemand and conservative governors are updated to process cpufreq utilization update hooks called for remote CPUs where the remote CPU is managed by the cpufreq policy of the local CPU. The intel_pstate driver is updated to always reject remote callbacks. This is tested with couple of usecases (Android: hackbench, recentfling, galleryfling, vellamo, Ubuntu: hackbench) on ARM hikey board (64 bit octa-core, single policy). Only galleryfling showed minor improvements, while others didn't had much deviation. The reason being that this patch only targets a corner case, where following are required to be true to improve performance and that doesn't happen too often with these tests: - Task is migrated to another CPU. - The task has high demand, and should take the target CPU to higher OPPs. - And the target CPU doesn't call into the cpufreq governor until the next tick. Based on initial work from Steve Muckle.

sched/rt: Minimize rq->lock contention in do_sched_rt_period_timer()
With CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=y, do_sched_rt_period_timer() sequentially takes each CPU's rq->lock. On a large, busy system, the cumulative time it takes to acquire each lock can be excessive, even triggering a watchdog timeout. If rt_rq->rt_time and rt_rq->rt_nr_running are both zero, this function does nothing while holding the lock, so don't bother taking it at all.

pick_next_pushable_task(rq) has BUG_ON(rq_cpu != task_cpu(task)) when it returns a task other than NULL, which means that task_cpu(task) must be rq->cpu.

cpufreq / sched: Pass flags to cpufreq_update_util()
It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util() and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data. However, doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they already take would be clumsy, so avoid it. Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly. This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util() and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow. Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track updates from the RT and DL sched classes. Make it non-modular too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at large. Next, update all of the other users of cpufreq_update_util() and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data accordingly.

locking/lockdep, sched/core: Implement a better lock pinning scheme
The problem with the existing lock pinning is that each pin is of value 1; this mean you can simply unpin if you know its pinned, without having any extra information. This scheme generates a random (16 bit) cookie for each pin and requires this same cookie to unpin. This means you have to keep the cookie in context. No objsize difference for !LOCKDEP kernels.

sched/cpufreq: Optimize cpufreq update kicker to avoid update multiple times
Sometimes delta_exec is 0 due to update_curr() is called multiple times, this is captured by: u64 delta_exec = rq_clock_task(rq) - curr->se.exec_start; This patch optimizes the cpufreq update kicker by bailing out when nothing changed, it will benefit the upcoming schedutil, since otherwise it will (over)react to the special util/max combination.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the majority of changes go into cpufreq and they are
significant.
First off, the way CPU frequency updates are triggered is different
now. Instead of having to set up and manage a deferrable timer for
each CPU in the system to evaluate and possibly change its frequency
periodically, cpufreq governors set up callbacks to be invoked by the
scheduler on a regular basis (basically on utilization updates). The
"old" governors, "ondemand" and "conservative", still do all of their
work in process context (although that is triggered by the scheduler
now), but intel_pstate does it all in the callback invoked by the
scheduler with no need for any additional asynchronous processing.
Of course, this eliminates the overhead related to the management of
all those timers, but also it allows the cpufreq governor code to be
simplified quite a bit. On top of that, the common code and data
structures used by the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors are
cleaned up and made more straightforward and some long-standing and
quite annoying problems are addressed. In particular, the handling of
governor sysfs attributes is modified and the related locking becomes
more fine grained which allows some concurrency problems to be avoided
(particularly deadlocks with the core cpufreq code).
In principle, the new mechanism for triggering frequency updates
allows utilization information to be passed from the scheduler to
cpufreq. Although the current code doesn't make use of it, in the
works is a new cpufreq governor that will make decisions based on the
scheduler's utilization data. That should allow the scheduler and
cpufreq to work more closely together in the long run.
In addition to the core and governor changes, cpufreq drivers are
updated too. Fixes and optimizations go into intel_pstate, the
cpufreq-dt driver is updated on top of some modification in the
Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework and there are fixes and
other updates in the powernv cpufreq driver.
Apart from the cpufreq updates there is some new ACPICA material,
including a fix for a problem introduced by previous ACPICA updates,
and some less significant changes in the ACPI code, like CPPC code
optimizations, ACPI processor driver cleanups and support for loading
ACPI tables from initrd.
Also updated are the generic power domains framework, the Intel RAPL
power capping driver and the turbostat utility and we have a bunch of
traditional assorted fixes and cleanups.

cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks
Introduce a mechanism by which parts of the cpufreq subsystem
("setpolicy" drivers or the core) can register callbacks to be
executed from cpufreq_update_util() which is invoked by the
scheduler's update_load_avg() on CPU utilization changes.
This allows the "setpolicy" drivers to dispense with their timers
and do all of the computations they need and frequency/voltage
adjustments in the update_load_avg() code path, among other things.
The update_load_avg() changes were suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

sched: Account rr tasks
In order to evaluate the scheduler tick dependency without probing context switches, we need to know how much SCHED_RR and SCHED_FIFO tasks are enqueued as those policies don't have the same preemption requirements. To prepare for that, let's account SCHED_RR tasks, we'll be able to deduce SCHED_FIFO tasks as well from it and the total RT tasks in the runqueue.

sched/rt: Kick RT bandwidth timer immediately on start up
I've been debugging why deadline tasks can cause the RT scheduler to throttle, even when the deadline tasks are only taking up 50% of the CPU and RT tasks are not even using 1% of the CPU. Here's what I found. In order to keep a CPU from being hogged by RT tasks, the deadline scheduler adds its run time (delta_exec) to the rt_time of the RT bandwidth. That way, if the two use more than 95% of the CPU within one second (default settings), the RT tasks are throttled to allow non RT tasks to run. Although the deadline tasks add their run time to the RT bandwidth, it lets the RT tasks do the accounting. This is where the problem lies. If a deadline task runs for a bit, and no RT tasks are running, then it will continually add to the RT rt_time that is used to calculate how much CPU the RT tasks use. But no RT period is in play, and this accumulation of the runtime never gets reset. When an RT task finally gets to run, and the watchdog goes off, it can see that the RT task has used more than it should of, because the deadline task added all this runtime to its rt_time. Then the RT task that just woke up gets throttled for no good reason. I also noticed that when an RT task is queued, it starts the timer to account for overload and such. But that timer goes off one period later, which may be too late and the extra rt_time will trigger a throttle. This is a quick work around to the problem. When a new RT task is queued, the bandwidth timer is set to go off immediately. Then the timer can clear out the extra time added to the rt_time while there was no RT task running. This stops my tests from triggering the throttle, and it will still throttle if an RT task runs too much, even while a deadline task is running. A better solution may be to subtract the bandwidth that the deadline task uses from the rt_runtime, and add it back when its finished. Then there wont be a need for runtime tracking of the time used by deadline tasks. I may play with that solution tomorrow.

So normally we dequeue/enqueue tasks in sched_setscheduler(), which
would ensure the accounting stays correct. However in the early PI path
we fail to do so.

sched: Replace post_schedule with a balance callback list
Generalize the post_schedule() stuff into a balance callback list. This allows us to more easily use it outside of schedule() and cross sched_class.

sched,perf: Fix periodic timers
In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be (re)-started when their idle condition changes. Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns, and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we end up with a 'lost' timer. The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer. Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course, that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time. Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that is undesired. The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas. Fixes: |

sched: Cleanup bandwidth timers
Roman reported a 3 cpu lockup scenario involving __start_cfs_bandwidth().
The more I look at that code the more I'm convinced its crack, that
entire __start_cfs_bandwidth() thing is brain melting, we don't need to
cancel a timer before starting it, *hrtimer_start*() will happily remove
the timer for you if its still enqueued.
Removing that, removes a big part of the problem, no more ugly cancel
loop to get stuck in.
So now, if I understand things right, the entire reason you have this
cfs_b->lock guarded ->timer_active nonsense is to make sure we don't
accidentally lose the timer.
It appears to me that it should be possible to guarantee that same by
unconditionally (re)starting the timer when !queued. Because regardless
what hrtimer::function will return, if we beat it to (re)enqueue the
timer, it doesn't matter.
Now, because hrtimers don't come with any serialization guarantees we
must ensure both handler and (re)start loop serialize their access to
the hrtimer to avoid both trying to forward the timer at the same
time.
Update the rt bandwidth timer to match.
This effectively reverts:

sched/rt: Use IPI to trigger RT task push migration instead of pulling
When debugging the latencies on a 40 core box, where we hit 300 to 500 microsecond latencies, I found there was a huge contention on the runqueue locks. Investigating it further, running ftrace, I found that it was due to the pulling of RT tasks. The test that was run was the following: cyclictest --numa -p95 -m -d0 -i100 This created a thread on each CPU, that would set its wakeup in iterations of 100 microseconds. The -d0 means that all the threads had the same interval (100us). Each thread sleeps for 100us and wakes up and measures its latencies. cyclictest is maintained at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clrkwllms/rt-tests.git What happened was another RT task would be scheduled on one of the CPUs that was running our test, when the other CPU tests went to sleep and scheduled idle. This caused the "pull" operation to execute on all these CPUs. Each one of these saw the RT task that was overloaded on the CPU of the test that was still running, and each one tried to grab that task in a thundering herd way. To grab the task, each thread would do a double rq lock grab, grabbing its own lock as well as the rq of the overloaded CPU. As the sched domains on this box was rather flat for its size, I saw up to 12 CPUs block on this lock at once. This caused a ripple affect with the rq locks especially since the taking was done via a double rq lock, which means that several of the CPUs had their own rq locks held while trying to take this rq lock. As these locks were blocked, any wakeups or load balanceing on these CPUs would also block on these locks, and the wait time escalated. I've tried various methods to lessen the load, but things like an atomic counter to only let one CPU grab the task wont work, because the task may have a limited affinity, and we may pick the wrong CPU to take that lock and do the pull, to only find out that the CPU we picked isn't in the task's affinity. Instead of doing the PULL, I now have the CPUs that want the pull to send over an IPI to the overloaded CPU, and let that CPU pick what CPU to push the task to. No more need to grab the rq lock, and the push/pull algorithm still works fine. With this patch, the latency dropped to just 150us over a 20 hour run. Without the patch, the huge latencies would trigger in seconds. I've created a new sched feature called RT_PUSH_IPI, which is enabled by default. When RT_PUSH_IPI is not enabled, the old method of grabbing the rq locks and having the pulling CPU do the work is implemented. When RT_PUSH_IPI is enabled, the IPI is sent to the overloaded CPU to do a push. To enabled or disable this at run time: # mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug # echo RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features or # echo NO_RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features Update: This original patch would send an IPI to all CPUs in the RT overload list. But that could theoretically cause the reverse issue. That is, there could be lots of overloaded RT queues and one CPU lowers its priority. It would then send an IPI to all the overloaded RT queues and they could then all try to grab the rq lock of the CPU lowering its priority, and then we have the same problem. The latest design sends out only one IPI to the first overloaded CPU. It tries to push any tasks that it can, and then looks for the next overloaded CPU that can push to the source CPU. The IPIs stop when all overloaded CPUs that have pushable tasks that have priorities greater than the source CPU are covered. In case the source CPU lowers its priority again, a flag is set to tell the IPI traversal to restart with the first RT overloaded CPU after the source CPU.

sched/core: Rework rq->clock update skips
The original purpose of rq::skip_clock_update was to avoid 'costly' clock updates for back to back wakeup-preempt pairs. The big problem with it has always been that the rq variable is unaware of the context and causes indiscrimiate clock skips. Rework the entire thing and create a sense of context by only allowing schedule() to skip clock updates. (XXX can we measure the cost of the added store?) By ensuring only schedule can ever skip an update, we guarantee we're never more than 1 tick behind on the update.
