x86, sched: Add support for frequency invariance
Implement arch_scale_freq_capacity() for 'modern' x86. This function
is used by the scheduler to correctly account usage in the face of
DVFS.
The present patch addresses Intel processors specifically and has positive
performance and performance-per-watt implications for the schedutil cpufreq
governor, bringing it closer to, if not on-par with, the powersave governor
from the intel_pstate driver/framework.
Large performance gains are obtained when the machine is lightly loaded and
no regression are observed at saturation. The benchmarks with the largest
gains are kernel compilation, tbench (the networking version of dbench) and
shell-intensive workloads.
1. FREQUENCY INVARIANCE: MOTIVATION
* Without it, a task looks larger if the CPU runs slower
2. PECULIARITIES OF X86
* freq invariance accounting requires knowing the ratio freq_curr/freq_max
2.1 CURRENT FREQUENCY
* Use delta_APERF / delta_MPERF * freq_base (a.k.a "BusyMHz")
2.2 MAX FREQUENCY
* It varies with time (turbo). As an approximation, we set it to a
constant, i.e. 4-cores turbo frequency.
3. EFFECTS ON THE SCHEDUTIL FREQUENCY GOVERNOR
* The invariant schedutil's formula has no feedback loop and reacts faster
to utilization changes
4. KNOWN LIMITATIONS
* In some cases tasks can't reach max util despite how hard they try

| 1. FREQUENCY INVARIANCE: MOTIVATION
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
For example; suppose a CPU has two frequencies: 500 and 1000 Mhz. When
running a task that would consume 1/3rd of a CPU at 1000 MHz, it would
appear to consume 2/3rd (or 66.6%) when running at 500 MHz, giving the
false impression this CPU is almost at capacity, even though it can go
faster [*]. In a nutshell, without frequency scale-invariance tasks look
larger just because the CPU is running slower.
[*] (footnote: this assumes a linear frequency/performance relation; which
everybody knows to be false, but given realities its the best approximation
we can make.)
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 2. PECULIARITIES OF X86
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Accounting for frequency changes in PELT signals requires the computation of
the ratio freq_curr / freq_max. On x86 neither of those terms is readily
available.
2.1 CURRENT FREQUENCY
====================
Since modern x86 has hardware control over the actual frequency we run
at (because amongst other things, Turbo-Mode), we cannot simply use
the frequency as requested through cpufreq.
Instead we use the APERF/MPERF MSRs to compute the effective frequency
over the recent past. Also, because reading MSRs is expensive, don't
do so every time we need the value, but amortize the cost by doing it
every tick.
2.2 MAX FREQUENCY
=================
Obtaining freq_max is also non-trivial because at any time the hardware can
provide a frequency boost to a selected subset of cores if the package has
enough power to spare (eg: Turbo Boost). This means that the maximum frequency
available to a given core changes with time.
The approach taken in this change is to arbitrarily set freq_max to a constant
value at boot. The value chosen is the "4-cores (4C) turbo frequency" on most
microarchitectures, after evaluating the following candidates:
* 1-core (1C) turbo frequency (the fastest turbo state available)
* around base frequency (a.k.a. max P-state)
* something in between, such as 4C turbo
To interpret these options, consider that this is the denominator in
freq_curr/freq_max, and that ratio will be used to scale PELT signals such as
util_avg and load_avg. A large denominator will undershoot (util_avg looks a
bit smaller than it really is), viceversa with a smaller denominator PELT
signals will tend to overshoot. Given that PELT drives frequency selection
in the schedutil governor, we will have:
freq_max set to | effect on DVFS
--------------------+------------------
1C turbo | power efficiency (lower freq choices)
base freq | performance (higher util_avg, higher freq requests)
4C turbo | a bit of both
4C turbo proves to be a good compromise in a number of benchmarks (see below).
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 3. EFFECTS ON THE SCHEDUTIL FREQUENCY GOVERNOR
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Once an architecture implements a frequency scale-invariant utilization (the
PELT signal util_avg), schedutil switches its frequency selection formula from
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_curr * util [non-invariant util signal]
to
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * util [invariant util signal]
where, in the second formula, freq_max is set to the 1C turbo frequency (max
turbo). The advantage of the second formula, whose usage we unlock with this
patch, is that freq_next doesn't depend on the current frequency in an
iterative fashion, but can jump to any frequency in a single update. This
absence of feedback in the formula makes it quicker to react to utilization
changes and more robust against pathological instabilities.
Compare it to the update formula of intel_pstate/powersave:
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * Busy%
where again freq_max is 1C turbo and Busy% is the percentage of time not spent
idling (calculated with delta_MPERF / delta_TSC); essentially the same as
invariant schedutil, and largely responsible for intel_pstate/powersave good
reputation. The non-invariant schedutil formula is derived from the invariant
one by approximating util_inv with util_raw * freq_curr / freq_max, but this
has limitations.
Testing shows improved performances due to better frequency selections when
the machine is lightly loaded, and essentially no change in behaviour at
saturation / overutilization.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 4. KNOWN LIMITATIONS
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
It's been shown that it is possible to create pathological scenarios where a
CPU-bound task cannot reach max utilization, if the normalizing factor
freq_max is fixed to a constant value (see [Lelli-2018]).
If freq_max is set to 4C turbo as we do here, one needs to peg at least 5
cores in a package doing some busywork, and observe that none of those task
will ever reach max util (1024) because they're all running at less than the
4C turbo frequency.
While this concern still applies, we believe the performance benefit of
frequency scale-invariant PELT signals outweights the cost of this limitation.

5.2 SETUP
=========
* The baseline is Linux v5.2 with schedutil (non-invariant) and the intel_pstate
driver in passive mode.
* The rationale for choosing the various freq_max values to test have been to
try all the 1-2-3-4C turbo levels (note that 1C and 2C turbo are identical
on all machines), plus one more value closer to base_freq but still in the
turbo range (8C turbo for both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA).
* In addition we've run all tests with intel_pstate/powersave for comparison.
* The filesystem is always XFS, the userspace is openSUSE Leap 15.1.
* 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA is capable of HWP (Hardware-Managed P-States), so the runs
with active intel_pstate on this machine use that.
This gives, in terms of combinations tested on each machine:
* 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA
* Baseline: Linux v5.2, non-invariant schedutil, intel_pstate passive
* intel_pstate active + powersave + HWP
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 1C turbo
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 3C turbo
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 4C turbo
* both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA
* [same as 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA, but no HWP capable]
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 8C turbo
(which on 48x-HASWELL-NUMA is the same as 12C turbo, or "all cores turbo")
5.3 BENCHMARK RESULTS
=====================
5.3.1 NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS
------------------------
Tests that didn't show any measurable difference in performance on any of the
test machines between non-invariant schedutil and our patch are:
* NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) using either MPI or openMP for IPC, any
computational kernel
* flexible I/O (FIO)
* hackbench (using threads or processes, and using pipes or sockets)
5.3.2 NON-NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS
----------------------------
What follow are summary tables where each benchmark result is given a score.
* A tilde (~) means a neutral result, i.e. no difference from baseline.
* Scores are computed with the ratio result_new / result_baseline, so a tilde
means a score of 1.00.
* The results in the score ratio are the geometric means of results running
the benchmark with different parameters (eg: for kernbench: using 1, 2, 4,
... number of processes; for pgbench: varying the number of clients, and so
on).
* The first three tables show higher-is-better kind of tests (i.e. measured in
operations/second), the subsequent three show lower-is-better kind of tests
(i.e. the workload is fixed and we measure elapsed time, think kernbench).
* "gitsource" is a name we made up for the test consisting in running the
entire unit tests suite of the Git SCM and measuring how long it takes. We
take it as a typical example of shell-intensive serialized workload.
* In the "I_PSTATE" column we have the results for intel_pstate/powersave. Other
columns show invariant schedutil for different values of freq_max. 4C turbo
is circled as it's the value we've chosen for the final implementation.

tbench4 1.50 1.05 1.13 | 1.13 | 1.25
+------+
In the table above we see that active intel_pstate is slightly better than our
4C-turbo patch (both in reference to the baseline non-invariant schedutil) on
read-only pgbench and much better on tbench. Both cases are notable in which
it shows that lowering our freq_max (to 8C-turbo and 12C-turbo on
80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA respectively) helps invariant
schedutil to get closer.
If we ignore active intel_pstate and focus on the comparison with baseline
alone, there are several instances of double-digit performance improvement.
80x-BROADWELL-NUMA (comparison ratio; lower is better)

kernbench 0.94 0.90 0.89 | 0.90 | 0.90
gitsource 0.97 0.69 0.69 | 0.69 | 0.69
+------+
dbench is not very remarkable here, unless we notice how poorly active
intel_pstate is performing on 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA: 23% regression versus
non-invariant schedutil. We repeated that run getting consistent results. Out
of scope for the patch at hand, but deserving future investigation. Other than
that, we previously ran this campaign with Linux v5.0 and saw the patch doing
better on dbench a the time. We haven't checked closely and can only speculate
at this point.
On the NUMA boxes kernbench gets 10-15% improvements on average; we'll see in
the detailed tables that the gains concentrate on low process counts (lightly
loaded machines).
The test we call "gitsource" (running the git unit test suite, a long-running
single-threaded shell script) appears rather spectacular in this table (gains
of 30-50% depending on the machine). It is to be noted, however, that
gitsource has no adjustable parameters (such as the number of jobs in
kernbench, which we average over in order to get a single-number summary
score) and is exactly the kind of low-parallelism workload that benefits the
most from this patch. When looking at the detailed tables of kernbench or
tbench4, at low process or client counts one can see similar numbers.

This is one of the cases where the patch still can't surpass active
intel_pstate, not even when freq_max is as low as 12C-turbo. Otherwise, gains are
visible up to 16 clients and the saturated scenario is the same as baseline.
The scores in the summary table from the previous sections are ratios of
geometric means of the results over different clients, as seen in this table.

The patch outperform active intel_pstate (and baseline) by a considerable
margin; the summary table from the previous section says 4C turbo and active
intel_pstate are 0.83 and 0.93 against baseline respectively, so 4C turbo is
0.83/0.93=0.89 against intel_pstate (~10% better on average). There is no
noticeable difference with regard to the value of freq_max.

5.3.4 POWER CONSUMPTION, PERFORMANCE-PER-WATT
---------------------------------------------
The following table shows average power consumption in watt for each
benchmark. Data comes from turbostat (package average), which in turn is read
from the RAPL interface on CPUs. We know the patch affects CPU frequencies so
it's reasonable to ignore other power consumers (such as memory or I/O). Also,
we don't have a power meter available in the lab so RAPL is the best we have.
turbostat sampled average power every 10 seconds for the entire duration of
each benchmark. We took all those values and averaged them (i.e. with don't
have detail on a per-parameter granularity, only on whole benchmarks).

These results are overall pleasing: in plenty of cases we observe
performance-per-watt improvements. The few regressions (read/write pgbench and
dbench on the Broadwell machine) are of small magnitude. kernbench loses a few
percentage points (it has a 10-15% performance improvement, but apparently the
increase in power consumption is larger than that). tbench4 and gitsource, which
benefit the most from the patch, keep a positive score in this table which is
a welcome surprise; that suggests that in those particular workloads the
non-invariant schedutil (and active intel_pstate, too) makes some rather
suboptimal frequency selections.

sched/fair: Prevent unlimited runtime on throttled group
When a running task is moved on a throttled task group and there is no
other task enqueued on the CPU, the task can keep running using 100% CPU
whatever the allocated bandwidth for the group and although its cfs rq is
throttled. Furthermore, the group entity of the cfs_rq and its parents are
not enqueued but only set as curr on their respective cfs_rqs.
We have the following sequence:
sched_move_task
-dequeue_task: dequeue task and group_entities.
-put_prev_task: put task and group entities.
-sched_change_group: move task to new group.
-enqueue_task: enqueue only task but not group entities because cfs_rq is
throttled.
-set_next_task : set task and group_entities as current sched_entity of
their cfs_rq.
Another impact is that the root cfs_rq runnable_load_avg at root rq stays
null because the group_entities are not enqueued. This situation will stay
the same until an "external" event triggers a reschedule. Let trigger it
immediately instead.

sched/nohz: Optimize get_nohz_timer_target()
On a machine, CPU 0 is used for housekeeping, the other 39 CPUs in the
same socket are in nohz_full mode. We can observe huge time burn in the
loop for seaching nearest busy housekeeper cpu by ftrace.
2) | get_nohz_timer_target() {
2) 0.240 us | housekeeping_test_cpu();
2) 0.458 us | housekeeping_test_cpu();

2) 0.240 us | housekeeping_test_cpu();
2) 0.227 us | housekeeping_any_cpu();
2) + 43.460 us | }
This patch optimizes the searching logic by finding a nearest housekeeper
CPU in the housekeeping cpumask, it can minimize the worst searching time
from ~44us to < 10us in my testing. In addition, the last iterated busy
housekeeper can become a random candidate while current CPU is a better
fallback if it is a housekeeper.

sched/fair: Allow a small load imbalance between low utilisation SD_NUMA domains
The CPU load balancer balances between different domains to spread load and strives to have equal balance everywhere. Communicating tasks can migrate so they are topologically close to each other but these decisions are independent. On a lightly loaded NUMA machine, two communicating tasks pulled together at wakeup time can be pushed apart by the load balancer. In isolation, the load balancer decision is fine but it ignores the tasks data locality and the wakeup/LB paths continually conflict. NUMA balancing is also a factor but it also simply conflicts with the load balancer. This patch allows a fixed degree of imbalance of two tasks to exist between NUMA domains regardless of utilisation levels. In many cases, this prevents communicating tasks being pulled apart. It was evaluated whether the imbalance should be scaled to the domain size. However, no additional benefit was measured across a range of workloads and machines and scaling adds the risk that lower domains have to be rebalanced. While this could change again in the future, such a change should specify the use case and benefit. The most obvious impact is on netperf TCP_STREAM -- two simple communicating tasks with some softirq offload depending on the transmission rate. 2-socket Haswell machine 48 core, HT enabled netperf-tcp -- mmtests config config-network-netperf-unbound baseline lbnuma-v3 Hmean 64 568.73 ( 0.00%) 577.56 * 1.55%* Hmean 128 1089.98 ( 0.00%) 1128.06 * 3.49%* Hmean 256 2061.72 ( 0.00%) 2104.39 * 2.07%* Hmean 1024 7254.27 ( 0.00%) 7557.52 * 4.18%* Hmean 2048 11729.20 ( 0.00%) 13350.67 * 13.82%* Hmean 3312 15309.08 ( 0.00%) 18058.95 * 17.96%* Hmean 4096 17338.75 ( 0.00%) 20483.66 * 18.14%* Hmean 8192 25047.12 ( 0.00%) 27806.84 * 11.02%* Hmean 16384 27359.55 ( 0.00%) 33071.88 * 20.88%* Stddev 64 2.16 ( 0.00%) 2.02 ( 6.53%) Stddev 128 2.31 ( 0.00%) 2.19 ( 5.05%) Stddev 256 11.88 ( 0.00%) 3.22 ( 72.88%) Stddev 1024 23.68 ( 0.00%) 7.24 ( 69.43%) Stddev 2048 79.46 ( 0.00%) 71.49 ( 10.03%) Stddev 3312 26.71 ( 0.00%) 57.80 (-116.41%) Stddev 4096 185.57 ( 0.00%) 96.15 ( 48.19%) Stddev 8192 245.80 ( 0.00%) 100.73 ( 59.02%) Stddev 16384 207.31 ( 0.00%) 141.65 ( 31.67%) In this case, there was a sizable improvement to performance and a general reduction in variance. However, this is not univeral. For most machines, the impact was roughly a 3% performance gain.

In an earlier changelog, 100% of sampled accesses are local and indeed on most machines, this was still the case. In this specific case, the local sampled rates was 99.3% but note the "base-page range updates" and "PTE updates". The activity with the patch is negligible as were the number of faults. The small number of pages migrated were related to shared libraries. A 2-socket Broadwell showed better results on average but are not presented for brevity as the performance was similar except it showed 100% of the sampled NUMA hints were local. The patch holds up for a 4-socket Haswell, an AMD EPYC and AMD Epyc 2 machine. For dbench, the impact depends on the filesystem used and the number of clients. On XFS, there is little difference as the clients typically communicate with workqueues which have a separate class of scheduler problem at the moment. For ext4, performance is generally better, particularly for small numbers of clients as NUMA balancing activity is negligible with the patch applied. A more interesting example is the Facebook schbench which uses a number of messaging threads to communicate with worker threads. In this configuration, one messaging thread is used per NUMA node and the number of worker threads is varied. The 50, 75, 90, 95, 99, 99.5 and 99.9 percentiles for response latency is then reported.

Hackbench generally showed neutral results across a range of machines. This is different to earlier versions of the patch which allowed imbalances for higher degrees of utilisation. perf bench pipe showed negligible differences in overall performance as the differences are very close to the noise. An earlier prototype of the patch showed major regressions for NAS C-class when running with only half of the available CPUs -- 20-30% performance hits were measured at the time. With this version of the patch, the impact is negligible with small gains/losses within the noise measured. This is because the number of threads far exceeds the small imbalance the aptch cares about. Similarly, there were report of regressions for the autonuma benchmark against earlier versions but again, normal load balancing now applies for that workload. In general, the patch simply seeks to avoid unnecessary cross-node migrations in the basic case where imbalances are very small. For low utilisation communicating workloads, this patch generally behaves better with less NUMA balancing activity. For high utilisation, there is no change in behaviour.

sched/topology: Assert non-NUMA topology masks don't (partially) overlap
topology.c::get_group() relies on the assumption that non-NUMA domains do
not partially overlap. Zeng Tao pointed out in [1] that such topology
descriptions, while completely bogus, can end up being exposed to the
scheduler.
In his example (8 CPUs, 2-node system), we end up with:
MC span for CPU3 == 3-7
MC span for CPU4 == 4-7
The first pass through get_group(3, sdd@MC) will result in the following
sched_group list:
3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7
^ /
`----------------'
And a later pass through get_group(4, sdd@MC) will "corrupt" that to:
3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7
^ /
`-----------'
which will completely break things like 'while (sg != sd->groups)' when
using CPU3's base sched_domain.
There already are some architecture-specific checks in place such as
x86/kernel/smpboot.c::topology.sane(), but this is something we can detect
in the core scheduler, so it seems worthwhile to do so.
Warn and abort the construction of the sched domains if such a broken
topology description is detected. Note that this is somewhat
expensive (O(t.c²), 't' non-NUMA topology levels and 'c' CPUs) and could be
gated under SCHED_DEBUG if deemed necessary.

I think we should not create /proc/pressure and

In the future, user maybe determine whether the psi feature is enabled by
checking the existence of the /proc/pressure dir or

sched/uclamp: Fix a bug in propagating uclamp value in new cgroups
When a new cgroup is created, the effective uclamp value wasn't updated
with a call to cpu_util_update_eff() that looks at the hierarchy and
update to the most restrictive values.
Fix it by ensuring to call cpu_util_update_eff() when a new cgroup
becomes online.
Without this change, the newly created cgroup uses the default
root_task_group uclamp values, which is 1024 for both uclamp_{min, max},
which will cause the rq to to be clamped to max, hence cause the
system to run at max frequency.
The problem was observed on Ubuntu server and was reproduced on Debian
and Buildroot rootfs.
By default, Ubuntu and Debian create a cpu controller cgroup hierarchy
and add all tasks to it - which creates enough noise to keep the rq
uclamp value at max most of the time. Imitating this behavior makes the
problem visible in Buildroot too which otherwise looks fine since it's a
minimal userspace.

sched/fair: Load balance aggressively for SCHED_IDLE CPUs
The fair scheduler performs periodic load balance on every CPU to check if it can pull some tasks from other busy CPUs. The duration of this periodic load balance is set to sd->balance_interval for the idle CPUs and is calculated by multiplying the sd->balance_interval with the sd->busy_factor (set to 32 by default) for the busy CPUs. The multiplication is done for busy CPUs to avoid doing load balance too often and rather spend more time executing actual task. While that is the right thing to do for the CPUs busy with SCHED_OTHER or SCHED_BATCH tasks, it may not be the optimal thing for CPUs running only SCHED_IDLE tasks. With the recent enhancements in the fair scheduler around SCHED_IDLE CPUs, we now prefer to enqueue a newly-woken task to a SCHED_IDLE CPU instead of other busy or idle CPUs. The same reasoning should be applied to the load balancer as well to make it migrate tasks more aggressively to a SCHED_IDLE CPU, as that will reduce the scheduling latency of the migrated (SCHED_OTHER) tasks. This patch makes minimal changes to the fair scheduler to do the next load balance soon after the last non SCHED_IDLE task is dequeued from a runqueue, i.e. making the CPU SCHED_IDLE. Also the sd->busy_factor is ignored while calculating the balance_interval for such CPUs. This is done to avoid delaying the periodic load balance by few hundred milliseconds for SCHED_IDLE CPUs. This is tested on ARM64 Hikey620 platform (octa-core) with the help of rt-app and it is verified, using kernel traces, that the newly SCHED_IDLE CPU does load balancing shortly after it becomes SCHED_IDLE and pulls tasks from other busy CPUs.

sched/fair : Improve update_sd_pick_busiest for spare capacity case
Similarly to calculate_imbalance() and find_busiest_group(), using the number of idle CPUs when there is only 1 CPU in the group is not efficient because we can't make a difference between a CPU running 1 task and a CPU running dozens of small tasks competing for the same CPU but not enough to overload it. More generally speaking, we should use the number of running tasks when there is the same number of idle CPUs in a group instead of blindly select the 1st one. When the groups have spare capacity and the same number of idle CPUs, we compare the number of running tasks to select the busiest group.

sched/rt: Make RT capacity-aware
Capacity Awareness refers to the fact that on heterogeneous systems (like Arm big.LITTLE), the capacity of the CPUs is not uniform, hence when placing tasks we need to be aware of this difference of CPU capacities. In such scenarios we want to ensure that the selected CPU has enough capacity to meet the requirement of the running task. Enough capacity means here that capacity_orig_of(cpu) >= task.requirement. The definition of task.requirement is dependent on the scheduling class. For CFS, utilization is used to select a CPU that has >= capacity value than the cfs_task.util. capacity_orig_of(cpu) >= cfs_task.util DL isn't capacity aware at the moment but can make use of the bandwidth reservation to implement that in a similar manner CFS uses utilization. The following patchset implements that: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190506044836.2914-1-luca.abeni@santannapisa.it/ capacity_orig_of(cpu)/SCHED_CAPACITY >= dl_deadline/dl_runtime For RT we don't have a per task utilization signal and we lack any information in general about what performance requirement the RT task needs. But with the introduction of uclamp, RT tasks can now control that by setting uclamp_min to guarantee a minimum performance point. ATM the uclamp value are only used for frequency selection; but on heterogeneous systems this is not enough and we need to ensure that the capacity of the CPU is >= uclamp_min. Which is what implemented here. capacity_orig_of(cpu) >= rt_task.uclamp_min Note that by default uclamp.min is 1024, which means that RT tasks will always be biased towards the big CPUs, which make for a better more predictable behavior for the default case. Must stress that the bias acts as a hint rather than a definite placement strategy. For example, if all big cores are busy executing other RT tasks we can't guarantee that a new RT task will be placed there. On non-heterogeneous systems the original behavior of RT should be retained. Similarly if uclamp is not selected in the config.

sched/fair: Make EAS wakeup placement consider uclamp restrictions
task_fits_capacity() has just been made uclamp-aware, and
find_energy_efficient_cpu() needs to go through the same treatment.
Things are somewhat different here however - using the task max clamp isn't
sufficient. Consider the following setup:
The target runqueue, rq:
rq.cpu_capacity_orig = 512
rq.cfs.avg.util_avg = 200
rq.uclamp.max = 768 // the max p.uclamp.max of all enqueued p's is 768
The waking task, p (not yet enqueued on rq):
p.util_est = 600
p.uclamp.max = 100
Now, consider the following code which doesn't use the rq clamps:
util = uclamp_task_util(p);
// Does the task fit in the spare CPU capacity?
cpu = cpu_of(rq);
fits_capacity(util, cpu_capacity(cpu) - cpu_util(cpu))
This would lead to:
util = 100;
fits_capacity(100, 512 - 200)
fits_capacity() would return true. However, enqueuing p on that CPU *will*
cause it to become overutilized since rq clamp values are max-aggregated,
so we'd remain with
rq.uclamp.max = 768
which comes from the other tasks already enqueued on rq. Thus, we could
select a high enough frequency to reach beyond 0.8 * 512 utilization
(== overutilized) after enqueuing p on rq. What find_energy_efficient_cpu()
needs here is uclamp_rq_util_with() which lets us peek at the future
utilization landscape, including rq-wide uclamp values.
Make find_energy_efficient_cpu() use uclamp_rq_util_with() for its
fits_capacity() check. This is in line with what compute_energy() ends up
using for estimating utilization.

sched/fair: Make task_fits_capacity() consider uclamp restrictions
task_fits_capacity() drives CPU selection at wakeup time, and is also used to detect misfit tasks. Right now it does so by comparing task_util_est() with a CPU's capacity, but doesn't take into account uclamp restrictions. There's a few interesting uses that can come out of doing this. For instance, a low uclamp.max value could prevent certain tasks from being flagged as misfit tasks, so they could merrily remain on low-capacity CPUs. Similarly, a high uclamp.min value would steer tasks towards high capacity CPUs at wakeup (and, should that fail, later steered via misfit balancing), so such "boosted" tasks would favor CPUs of higher capacity. Introduce uclamp_task_util() and make task_fits_capacity() use it.

sched/fair: Make sched-idle CPU selection consistent throughout
There are instances where we keep searching for an idle CPU despite already having a sched-idle CPU (in find_idlest_group_cpu(), select_idle_smt() and select_idle_cpu() and then there are places where we don't necessarily do that and return a sched-idle CPU as soon as we find one (in select_idle_sibling()). This looks a bit inconsistent and it may be worth having the same policy everywhere. On the other hand, choosing a sched-idle CPU over a idle one shall be beneficial from performance and power point of view as well, as we don't need to get the CPU online from a deep idle state which wastes quite a lot of time and energy and delays the scheduling of the newly woken up task. This patch tries to simplify code around sched-idle CPU selection and make it consistent throughout. Testing is done with the help of rt-app on hikey board (ARM64 octa-core, 2 clusters, 0-3 and 4-7). The cpufreq governor was set to performance to avoid any side affects from CPU frequency. Following are the tests performed: Test 1: 1-cfs-task: A single SCHED_NORMAL task is pinned to CPU5 which runs for 2333 us out of 7777 us (so gives time for the cluster to go in deep idle state). Test 2: 1-cfs-1-idle-task: A single SCHED_NORMAL task is pinned on CPU5 and single SCHED_IDLE task is pinned on CPU6 (to make sure cluster 1 doesn't go in deep idle state). Test 3: 1-cfs-8-idle-task: A single SCHED_NORMAL task is pinned on CPU5 and eight SCHED_IDLE tasks are created which run forever (not pinned anywhere, so they run on all CPUs). Checked with kernelshark that as soon as NORMAL task sleeps, the SCHED_IDLE task starts running on CPU5. And here are the results on mean latency (in us), using the "st" tool. $ st 1-cfs-task/rt-app-cfs_thread-0.log N min max sum mean stddev 642 90 592 197180 307.134 109.906 $ st 1-cfs-1-idle-task/rt-app-cfs_thread-0.log N min max sum mean stddev 642 67 311 113850 177.336 41.4251 $ st 1-cfs-8-idle-task/rt-app-cfs_thread-0.log N min max sum mean stddev 643 29 173 41364 64.3297 13.2344 The mean latency when we need to: - wakeup from deep idle state is 307 us. - wakeup from shallow idle state is 177 us. - preempt a SCHED_IDLE task is 64 us.

don't happen, and therefore we don't care what @contrib actually is and
calculating it is pointless.
If we count the times when @load equals zero and not as below:
if (load) {
load_is_not_zero_count++;
contrib = __accumulate_pelt_segments(periods,
1024 - sa->period_contrib,delta);
} else
load_is_zero_count++;
As we can see, load_is_zero_count is much bigger than
load_is_zero_count, and the gap is gradually widening:
load_is_zero_count: 6016044 times
load_is_not_zero_count: 244316 times
19:50:43 up 1 min, 1 user, load average: 0.09, 0.06, 0.02

load_is_not_zero_count: 318424 times

sched: Spare resched IPI when prio changes on a single fair task
The runqueue of a fair task being remotely reniced is going to get a resched IPI in order to reassess which task should be the current running on the CPU. However that evaluation is useless if the fair task is running alone, in which case we can spare that IPI, preventing nohz_full CPUs from being disturbed.

sched/cfs: fix spurious active migration
The load balance can fail to find a suitable task during the periodic check because the imbalance is smaller than half of the load of the waiting tasks. This results in the increase of the number of failed load balance, which can end up to start an active migration. This active migration is useless because the current running task is not a better choice than the waiting ones. In fact, the current task was probably not running but waiting for the CPU during one of the previous attempts and it had already not been selected. When load balance fails too many times to migrate a task, we should relax the contraint on the maximum load of the tasks that can be migrated similarly to what is done with cache hotness. Before the rework, load balance used to set the imbalance to the average load_per_task in order to mitigate such situation. This increased the likelihood of migrating a task but also of selecting a larger task than needed while more appropriate ones were in the list.

sched/fair: Fix find_idlest_group() to handle CPU affinity
Because of CPU affinity, the local group can be skipped which breaks the
assumption that statistics are always collected for local group. With
uninitialized local_sgs, the comparison is meaningless and the behavior
unpredictable. This can even end up to use local pointer which is to
NULL in this case.
If the local group has been skipped because of CPU affinity, we return
the idlest group.

The psi window size is a u64 an can be up to 10 seconds right now, which exceeds the lower 32 bits of the variable. We currently use div_u64 for it, which is meant only for 32-bit divisors.

The period, stored in R8, is not 0, but we are dividing by the lower 32 bits only, which are all 0 in this instance. We could switch to a 64-bit division, but the period shouldn't be that big in the first place. It's the time between the last update and the next scheduled one, and so should always be around 2s and comfortably fit into 32 bits. The bug is in the initialization of new cgroups: we schedule the first sampling event in a cgroup as an offset of sched_clock(), but fail to initialize the last_update timestamp, and it defaults to 0. That results in a bogusly large sampling period the first time we run the sampling code, and consequently we underreport pressure for the first 2s of a cgroup's life. But worse, if sched_clock() is sufficiently advanced on the system, and the user gets unlucky, the period's lower 32 bits can all be 0 and the sampling division will crash. Fix this by initializing the last update timestamp to the creation time of the cgroup, thus correctly marking the start of the first pressure sampling period in a new cgroup.

cpufreq: Avoid leaving stale IRQ work items during CPU offline
The scheduler code calling cpufreq_update_util() may run during CPU
offline on the target CPU after the IRQ work lists have been flushed
for it, so the target CPU should be prevented from running code that
may queue up an IRQ work item on it at that point.
Unfortunately, that may not be the case if dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu
is set for at least one cpufreq policy in the system, because that
allows the CPU going offline to run the utilization update callback
of the cpufreq governor on behalf of another (online) CPU in some
cases.
If that happens, the cpufreq governor callback may queue up an IRQ
work on the CPU running it, which is going offline, and the IRQ work
may not be flushed after that point. Moreover, that IRQ work cannot
be flushed until the "offlining" CPU goes back online, so if any
other CPU calls irq_work_sync() to wait for the completion of that
IRQ work, it will have to wait until the "offlining" CPU is back
online and that may not happen forever. In particular, a system-wide
deadlock may occur during CPU online as a result of that.
The failing scenario is as follows. CPU0 is the boot CPU, so it
creates a cpufreq policy and becomes the "leader" of it
(policy->cpu). It cannot go offline, because it is the boot CPU.
Next, other CPUs join the cpufreq policy as they go online and they
leave it when they go offline. The last CPU to go offline, say CPU3,
may queue up an IRQ work while running the governor callback on
behalf of CPU0 after leaving the cpufreq policy because of the
dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu effect described above. Then, CPU0 is
the only online CPU in the system and the stale IRQ work is still
queued on CPU3. When, say, CPU1 goes back online, it will run
irq_work_sync() to wait for that IRQ work to complete and so it
will wait for CPU3 to go back online (which may never happen even
in principle), but (worse yet) CPU0 is waiting for CPU1 at that
point too and a system-wide deadlock occurs.
To address this problem notice that CPUs which cannot run cpufreq
utilization update code for themselves (for example, because they
have left the cpufreq policies that they belonged to), should also
be prevented from running that code on behalf of the other CPUs that
belong to a cpufreq policy with dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu set and so
in that case the cpufreq_update_util_data pointer of the CPU running
the code must not be NULL as well as for the CPU which is the target
of the cpufreq utilization update in progress.
Accordingly, change cpufreq_this_cpu_can_update() into a regular
function in kernel/sched/cpufreq.c (instead of a static inline in a
header file) and make it check the cpufreq_update_util_data pointer
of the local CPU if dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu is set for the target
cpufreq policy.
Also update the schedutil governor to do the
cpufreq_this_cpu_can_update() check in the non-fast-switch
case too to avoid the stale IRQ work issues.

Pull pipe rework from David Howells:
"This is my set of preparatory patches for building a general
notification queue on top of pipes. It makes a number of significant
changes:
- It removes the nr_exclusive argument from __wake_up_sync_key() as
this is always 1. This prepares for the next step:
- Adds wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() so that poll can be
woken up from a function that's holding the poll waitqueue
spinlock.
- Change the pipe buffer ring to be managed in terms of unbounded
head and tail indices rather than bounded index and length. This
means that reading the pipe only needs to modify one index, not
two.
- A selection of helper functions are provided to query the state of
the pipe buffer, plus a couple to apply updates to the pipe
indices.
- The pipe ring is allowed to have kernel-reserved slots. This allows
many notification messages to be spliced in by the kernel without
allowing userspace to pin too many pages if it writes to the same
pipe.
- Advance the head and tail indices inside the pipe waitqueue lock
and use wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() to poke poll
without having to take the lock twice.
- Rearrange pipe_write() to preallocate the buffer it is going to
write into and then drop the spinlock. This allows kernel
notifications to then be added the ring whilst it is filling the
buffer it allocated. The read side is stalled because the pipe
mutex is still held.
- Don't wake up readers on a pipe if there was already data in it
when we added more.
- Don't wake up writers on a pipe if the ring wasn't full before we
removed a buffer"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- A comprehensive rewrite of the robust/PI futex code's exit handling
to fix various exit races. (Thomas Gleixner et al)
- Rework the generic REFCOUNT_FULL implementation using
atomic_fetch_* operations so that the performance impact of the
cmpxchg() loops is mitigated for common refcount operations.
With these performance improvements the generic implementation of
refcount_t should be good enough for everybody - and this got
confirmed by performance testing, so remove ARCH_HAS_REFCOUNT and
REFCOUNT_FULL entirely, leaving the generic implementation enabled
unconditionally. (Will Deacon)

The load-balancing rework is the most intrusive change: it replaces the old heuristics that have become less meaningful after the introduction of the PELT metrics, with a grounds-up load-balancing algorithm. As such it's not really an iterative series, but replaces the old load-balancing logic with the new one. We hope there are no performance regressions left - but statistically it's highly probable that there *is* going to be some workload that is hurting from these chnages.

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
"A lot of stuff has been going on this cycle, with improving the
support for networked IO (and hence unbounded request completion
times) being one of the major themes. There's been a set of fixes done
this week, I'll send those out as well once we're certain we're fully
happy with them.
This contains:
- Unification of the "normal" submit path and the SQPOLL path (Pavel)
- Support for sparse (and bigger) file sets, and updating of those
file sets without needing to unregister/register again.
- Independently sized CQ ring, instead of just making it always 2x
the SQ ring size. This makes it more flexible for networked
applications.
- Support for overflowed CQ ring, never dropping events but providing
backpressure on submits.
- Add support for absolute timeouts, not just relative ones.
- Support for generic cancellations. This divorces io_uring from
workqueues as well, which additionally gets us one step closer to
generic async system call support.
- With cancellations, we can support grabbing the process file table
as well, just like we do mm context. This allows support for system
calls that create file descriptors, like accept4() support that's
built on top of that.
- Support for io_uring tracing (Dmitrii)
- Support for linked timeouts. These abort an operation if it isn't
completed by the time noted in the linke timeout.
- Speedup tracking of poll requests
- Various cleanups making the coder easier to follow (Jackie, Pavel,
Bob, YueHaibing, me)
- Update MAINTAINERS with new io_uring list"

sched/vtime: Bring up complete kcpustat accessor
Many callsites want to fetch the values of system, user, user_nice, guest or guest_nice kcpustat fields altogether or at least a pair of these. In that case calling kcpustat_field() for each requested field brings unecessary overhead when we could fetch all of them in a row. So provide kcpustat_cpu_fetch() that fetches the whole kcpustat array in a vtime safe way under the same RCU and seqcount block.
