2023-09-11arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architectureArd Biesheuvel1-26/+3
The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some distro packages that are rarely used in practice. None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as 'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2 reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have dropped support years ago. While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64 could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case. There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64 but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64 be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead of keeping it supported is real. So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely. This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5], which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow once the kernel support is removed.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: - The biggest change is introduction of a new iteration of the SCHED_FAIR interactivity code: the EEVDF ("Earliest Eligible Virtual Deadline First") scheduler EEVDF too is a virtual-time scheduler, with two parameters (weight and relative deadline), compared to CFS that had weight only. It completely reworks the base scheduler: placement, preemption, picking -- everything LWN.net, as usual, has a terrific writeup about EEVDF: https://lwn.net/Articles/925371/ Preemption (both tick and wakeup) is driven by testing against a fresh pick. Because the tree is now effectively an interval tree, and the selection is no longer the 'leftmost' task, over-scheduling is less of a problem. A lot of the CFS heuristics are removed or replaced by more natural latency-space parameters & constructs In terms of expected performance regressions: we will and can fix everything where a 'good' workload misbehaves with the new scheduler, but EEVDF inevitably changes workload scheduling in a binary fashion, hopefully for the better in the overwhelming majority of cases, but in some cases it won't, especially in adversarial loads that got lucky with the previous code, such as some variants of hackbench. We are trying hard to err on the side of fixing all performance regressions, but we expect some inevitable post-release iterations of that process - Improve load-balancing on hybrid x86 systems: enable cluster scheduling (again) - Improve & fix bandwidth-scheduling on nohz systems - Improve bandwidth-throttling - Use lock guards to simplify and de-goto-ify control flow - Misc improvements, cleanups and fixes * tag 'sched-core-2023-08-28' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (43 commits) sched/eevdf/doc: Modify the documented knob to base_slice_ns as well sched/eevdf: Curb wakeup-preemption sched: Simplify sched_core_cpu_{starting,deactivate}() sched: Simplify try_steal_cookie() sched: Simplify sched_tick_remote() sched: Simplify sched_exec() sched: Simplify ttwu() sched: Simplify wake_up_if_idle() sched: Simplify: migrate_swap_stop() sched: Simplify sysctl_sched_uclamp_handler() sched: Simplify get_nohz_timer_target() sched/rt: sysctl_sched_rr_timeslice show default timeslice after reset sched/rt: Fix sysctl_sched_rr_timeslice intial value sched/fair: Block nohz tick_stop when cfs bandwidth in use sched, cgroup: Restore meaning to hierarchical_quota MAINTAINERS: Add Peter explicitly to the psi section sched/psi: Select KERNFS as needed sched/topology: Align group flags when removing degenerate domain sched/fair: remove util_est boosting sched/fair: Propagate enqueue flags into place_entity() ...

2023-08-02sched/fair: Block nohz tick_stop when cfs bandwidth in usePhil Auld1-0/+26
CFS bandwidth limits and NOHZ full don't play well together. Tasks can easily run well past their quotas before a remote tick does accounting. This leads to long, multi-period stalls before such tasks can run again. Currently, when presented with these conflicting requirements the scheduler is favoring nohz_full and letting the tick be stopped. However, nohz tick stopping is already best-effort, there are a number of conditions that can prevent it, whereas cfs runtime bandwidth is expected to be enforced. Make the scheduler favor bandwidth over stopping the tick by setting TICK_DEP_BIT_SCHED when the only running task is a cfs task with runtime limit enabled. We use cfs_b->hierarchical_quota to determine if the task requires the tick. Add check in pick_next_task_fair() as well since that is where we have a handle on the task that is actually going to be running. Add check in sched_can_stop_tick() to cover some edge cases such as nr_running going from 2->1 and the 1 remains the running task.

2023-08-02sched, cgroup: Restore meaning to hierarchical_quotaPhil Auld1-4/+9
In cgroupv2 cfs_b->hierarchical_quota is set to -1 for all task groups due to the previous fix simply taking the min. It should reflect a limit imposed at that level or by an ancestor. Even though cgroupv2 does not require child quota to be less than or equal to that of its ancestors the task group will still be constrained by such a quota so this should be shown here. Cgroupv1 continues to set this correctly. In both cases, add initialization when a new task group is created based on the current parent's value (or RUNTIME_INF in the case of root_task_group). Otherwise, the field is wrong until a quota is changed after creation and __cfs_schedulable() is called.

2023-07-19sched/fair: Implement an EEVDF-like scheduling policyPeter Zijlstra1-0/+1
Where CFS is currently a WFQ based scheduler with only a single knob, the weight. The addition of a second, latency oriented parameter, makes something like WF2Q or EEVDF based a much better fit. Specifically, EEVDF does EDF like scheduling in the left half of the tree -- those entities that are owed service. Except because this is a virtual time scheduler, the deadlines are in virtual time as well, which is what allows over-subscription. EEVDF has two parameters: - weight, or time-slope: which is mapped to nice just as before - request size, or slice length: which is used to compute the virtual deadline as: vd_i = ve_i + r_i/w_i Basically, by setting a smaller slice, the deadline will be earlier and the task will be more eligible and ran earlier. Tick driven preemption is driven by request/slice completion; while wakeup preemption is driven by the deadline. Because the tree is now effectively an interval tree, and the selection is no longer 'leftmost', over-scheduling is less of a problem.

2023-07-17sched: add a few helpers to wake up tasks on the current cpuAndrei Vagin1-1/+1
Add complete_on_current_cpu, wake_up_poll_on_current_cpu helpers to wake up tasks on the current CPU. These two helpers are useful when the task needs to make a synchronous context switch to another task. In this context, synchronous means it wakes up the target task and falls asleep right after that. One example of such workloads is seccomp user notifies. This mechanism allows the supervisor process handles system calls on behalf of a target process. While the supervisor is handling an intercepted system call, the target process will be blocked in the kernel, waiting for a response to come back. On-CPU context switches are much faster than regular ones.

2023-07-13sched/core: introduce sched_core_idle_cpu()Cruz Zhao1-0/+13
As core scheduling introduced, a new state of idle is defined as force idle, running idle task but nr_running greater than zero. If a cpu is in force idle state, idle_cpu() will return zero. This result makes sense in some scenarios, e.g., load balance, showacpu when dumping, and judge the RCU boost kthread is starving. But this will cause error in other scenarios, e.g., tick_irq_exit(): When force idle, rq->curr == rq->idle but rq->nr_running > 0, results that idle_cpu() returns 0. In function tick_irq_exit(), if idle_cpu() is 0, tick_nohz_irq_exit() will not be called, and ts->idle_active will not become 1, which became 0 in tick_nohz_irq_enter(). ts->idle_sleeptime won't update in function update_ts_time_stats(), if ts->idle_active is 0, which should be 1. And this bug will result that ts->idle_sleeptime is less than the actual value, and finally will result that the idle time in /proc/stat is less than the actual value. To solve this problem, we introduce sched_core_idle_cpu(), which returns 1 when force idle. We audit all users of idle_cpu(), and change idle_cpu() into sched_core_idle_cpu() in function tick_irq_exit(). v2-->v3: Only replace idle_cpu() with sched_core_idle_cpu() in function tick_irq_exit(). And modify the corresponding commit log.

2023-07-13sched: add throttled time stat for throttled childrenJosh Don1-0/+44
We currently export the total throttled time for cgroups that are given a bandwidth limit. This patch extends this accounting to also account the total time that each children cgroup has been throttled. This is useful to understand the degree to which children have been affected by the throttling control. Children which are not runnable during the entire throttled period, for example, will not show any self-throttling time during this period. Expose this in a new interface, 'cpu.stat.local', which is similar to how non-hierarchical events are accounted in 'memory.events.local'.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "Scheduler SMP load-balancer improvements: - Avoid unnecessary migrations within SMT domains on hybrid systems. Problem: On hybrid CPU systems, (processors with a mixture of higher-frequency SMT cores and lower-frequency non-SMT cores), under the old code lower-priority CPUs pulled tasks from the higher-priority cores if more than one SMT sibling was busy - resulting in many unnecessary task migrations. Solution: The new code improves the load balancer to recognize SMT cores with more than one busy sibling and allows lower-priority CPUs to pull tasks, which avoids superfluous migrations and lets lower-priority cores inspect all SMT siblings for the busiest queue. - Implement the 'runnable boosting' feature in the EAS balancer: consider CPU contention in frequency, EAS max util & load-balance busiest CPU selection. This improves CPU utilization for certain workloads, while leaves other key workloads unchanged. Scheduler infrastructure improvements: - Rewrite the scheduler topology setup code by consolidating it into the build_sched_topology() helper function and building it dynamically on the fly. - Resolve the local_clock() vs. noinstr complications by rewriting the code: provide separate sched_clock_noinstr() and local_clock_noinstr() functions to be used in instrumentation code, and make sure it is all instrumentation-safe.

2023-06-05sched: Consider task_struct::saved_state in wait_task_inactive()Peter Zijlstra1-11/+48
With the introduction of task_struct::saved_state in commit 5f220be21418 ("sched/wakeup: Prepare for RT sleeping spin/rwlocks") matching the task state has gotten more complicated. That same commit changed try_to_wake_up() to consider both states, but wait_task_inactive() has been neglected. Sebastian noted that the wait_task_inactive() usage in ptrace_check_attach() can misbehave when ptrace_stop() is blocked on the tasklist_lock after it sets TASK_TRACED. Therefore extract a common helper from ttwu_state_match() and use that to teach wait_task_inactive() about the PREEMPT_RT locks.

2023-05-17workqueue: Automatically mark CPU-hogging work items CPU_INTENSIVETejun Heo1-0/+3
If a per-cpu work item hogs the CPU, it can prevent other work items from starting through concurrency management. A per-cpu workqueue which intends to host such CPU-hogging work items can choose to not participate in concurrency management by setting %WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE; however, this can be error-prone and difficult to debug when missed. This patch adds an automatic CPU usage based detection. If a concurrency-managed work item consumes more CPU time than the threshold (10ms by default) continuously without intervening sleeps, wq_worker_tick() which is called from scheduler_tick() will detect the condition and automatically mark it CPU_INTENSIVE. The mechanism isn't foolproof: * Detection depends on tick hitting the work item. Getting preempted at the right timings may allow a violating work item to evade detection at least temporarily. * nohz_full CPUs may not be running ticks and thus can fail detection. * Even when detection is working, the 10ms detection delays can add up if many CPU-hogging work items are queued at the same time. However, in vast majority of cases, this should be able to detect violations reliably and provide reasonable protection with a small increase in code complexity. If some work items trigger this condition repeatedly, the bigger problem likely is the CPU being saturated with such per-cpu work items and the solution would be making them UNBOUND. The next patch will add a debug mechanism to help spot such cases. v4: Documentation for workqueue.cpu_intensive_thresh_us added to kernel-parameters.txt. v3: Switch to use wq_worker_tick() instead of hooking into preemptions as suggested by Peter. v2: Lai pointed out that wq_worker_stopping() also needs to be called from preemption and rtlock paths and an earlier patch was updated accordingly. This patch adds a comment describing the risk of infinte recursions and how they're avoided.

cpuset_can_attach() can fail. Postpone DL BW allocation until all tasks have been checked. DL BW is not allocated per-task but as a sum over all DL tasks migrating. If multiple controllers are attached to the cgroup next to the cpuset controller a non-cpuset can_attach() can fail. In this case free DL BW in cpuset_cancel_attach(). Finally, update cpuset DL task count (nr_deadline_tasks) only in cpuset_attach().

2023-05-08sched/deadline: Create DL BW alloc, free & check overflow interfaceDietmar Eggemann1-2/+2
While moving a set of tasks between exclusive cpusets, cpuset_can_attach() -> task_can_attach() calls dl_cpu_busy(..., p) for DL BW overflow checking and per-task DL BW allocation on the destination root_domain for the DL tasks in this set. This approach has the issue of not freeing already allocated DL BW in the following error cases: (1) The set of tasks includes multiple DL tasks and DL BW overflow checking fails for one of the subsequent DL tasks. (2) Another controller next to the cpuset controller which is attached to the same cgroup fails in its can_attach(). To address this problem rework dl_cpu_busy(): (1) Split it into dl_bw_check_overflow() & dl_bw_alloc() and add a dedicated dl_bw_free(). (2) dl_bw_alloc() & dl_bw_free() take a `u64 dl_bw` parameter instead of a `struct task_struct *p` used in dl_cpu_busy(). This allows to allocate DL BW for a set of tasks too rather than only for a single task.

2023-04-21sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cidMathieu Desnoyers1-17/+506
Introduce per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid) to fix a PostgreSQL sysbench regression reported by Aaron Lu. Keep track of the currently allocated mm_cid for each mm/cpu rather than freeing them immediately on context switch. This eliminates most atomic operations when context switching back and forth between threads belonging to different memory spaces in multi-threaded scenarios (many processes, each with many threads). The per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid values are serialized by their respective runqueue locks. Thread migration is handled by introducing invocation to sched_mm_cid_migrate_to() (with destination runqueue lock held) in activate_task() for migrating tasks. If the destination cpu's mm_cid is unset, and if the source runqueue is not actively using its mm_cid, then the source cpu's mm_cid is moved to the destination cpu on migration. Introduce a task-work executed periodically, similarly to NUMA work, which delays reclaim of cid values when they are unused for a period of time. Keep track of the allocation time for each per-cpu cid, and let the task work clear them when they are observed to be older than SCHED_MM_CID_PERIOD_NS and unused. This task work also clears all mm_cids which are greater or equal to the Hamming weight of the mm cidmask to keep concurrency ids compact. Because we want to ensure the mm_cid converges towards the smaller values as migrations happen, the prior optimization that was done when context switching between threads belonging to the same mm is removed, because it could delay the lazy release of the destination runqueue mm_cid after it has been replaced by a migration. Removing this prior optimization is not an issue performance-wise because the introduced per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid tracking also covers this more specific case.

2023-03-24sched, smp: Trace smp callback causing an IPIValentin Schneider1-7/+11
Context ======= The newly-introduced ipi_send_cpumask tracepoint has a "callback" parameter which so far has only been fed with NULL. While CSD_TYPE_SYNC/ASYNC and CSD_TYPE_IRQ_WORK share a similar backing struct layout (meaning their callback func can be accessed without caring about the actual CSD type), CSD_TYPE_TTWU doesn't even have a function attached to its struct. This means we need to check the type of a CSD before eventually dereferencing its associated callback. This isn't as trivial as it sounds: the CSD type is stored in __call_single_node.u_flags, which get cleared right before the callback is executed via csd_unlock(). This implies checking the CSD type before it is enqueued on the call_single_queue, as the target CPU's queue can be flushed before we get to sending an IPI. Furthermore, send_call_function_single_ipi() only has a CPU parameter, and would need to have an additional argument to trickle down the invoked function. This is somewhat silly, as the extra argument will always be pushed down to the function even when nothing is being traced, which is unnecessary overhead. Changes ======= send_call_function_single_ipi() is only used by smp.c, and is defined in sched/core.c as it contains scheduler-specific ops (set_nr_if_polling() of a CPU's idle task). Split it into two parts: the scheduler bits remain in sched/core.c, and the actual IPI emission is moved into smp.c. This lets us define an __always_inline helper function that can take the related callback as parameter without creating useless register pressure in the non-traced path which only gains a (disabled) static branch. Do the same thing for the multi IPI case.
