From: Rik van Riel Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2016 01:08:27 +0000 (-0500) Subject: sched, time: Switch VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN to jiffy granularity X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ff9a9b4c4334b53b52ee9279f30bd5dd92ea9bdd;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git sched, time: Switch VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN to jiffy granularity When profiling syscall overhead on nohz-full kernels, after removing __acct_update_integrals() from the profile, native_sched_clock() remains as the top CPU user. This can be reduced by moving VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN to jiffy granularity. This will reduce timing accuracy on nohz_full CPUs to jiffy based sampling, just like on normal CPUs. It results in totally removing native_sched_clock from the profile, and significantly speeding up the syscall entry and exit path, as well as irq entry and exit, and KVM guest entry & exit. Additionally, only call the more expensive functions (and advance the seqlock) when jiffies actually changed. This code relies on another CPU advancing jiffies when the system is busy. On a nohz_full system, this is done by a housekeeping CPU. A microbenchmark calling an invalid syscall number 10 million times in a row speeds up an additional 30% over the numbers with just the previous patches, for a total speedup of about 40% over 4.4 and 4.5-rc1. Run times for the microbenchmark: 4.4 3.8 seconds 4.5-rc1 3.7 seconds 4.5-rc1 + first patch 3.3 seconds 4.5-rc1 + first 3 patches 3.1 seconds 4.5-rc1 + all patches 2.3 seconds A non-NOHZ_FULL cpu (not the housekeeping CPU): all kernels 1.86 seconds Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: clark@redhat.com Cc: eric.dumazet@gmail.com Cc: fweisbec@gmail.com Cc: luto@amacapital.net Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1455152907-18495-5-git-send-email-riel@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- diff --git a/kernel/sched/cputime.c b/kernel/sched/cputime.c index b2ab2ffb1adc..01d9898bc9a2 100644 --- a/kernel/sched/cputime.c +++ b/kernel/sched/cputime.c @@ -668,26 +668,25 @@ void thread_group_cputime_adjusted(struct task_struct *p, cputime_t *ut, cputime #endif /* !CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE */ #ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN -static unsigned long long vtime_delta(struct task_struct *tsk) +static cputime_t vtime_delta(struct task_struct *tsk) { - unsigned long long clock; + unsigned long now = READ_ONCE(jiffies); - clock = local_clock(); - if (clock < tsk->vtime_snap) + if (time_before(now, (unsigned long)tsk->vtime_snap)) return 0; - return clock - tsk->vtime_snap; + return jiffies_to_cputime(now - tsk->vtime_snap); } static cputime_t get_vtime_delta(struct task_struct *tsk) { - unsigned long long delta = vtime_delta(tsk); + unsigned long now = READ_ONCE(jiffies); + unsigned long delta = now - tsk->vtime_snap; WARN_ON_ONCE(tsk->vtime_snap_whence == VTIME_INACTIVE); - tsk->vtime_snap += delta; + tsk->vtime_snap = now; - /* CHECKME: always safe to convert nsecs to cputime? */ - return nsecs_to_cputime(delta); + return jiffies_to_cputime(delta); } static void __vtime_account_system(struct task_struct *tsk) @@ -699,6 +698,9 @@ static void __vtime_account_system(struct task_struct *tsk) void vtime_account_system(struct task_struct *tsk) { + if (!vtime_delta(tsk)) + return; + write_seqcount_begin(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); __vtime_account_system(tsk); write_seqcount_end(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); @@ -707,7 +709,8 @@ void vtime_account_system(struct task_struct *tsk) void vtime_gen_account_irq_exit(struct task_struct *tsk) { write_seqcount_begin(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); - __vtime_account_system(tsk); + if (vtime_delta(tsk)) + __vtime_account_system(tsk); if (context_tracking_in_user()) tsk->vtime_snap_whence = VTIME_USER; write_seqcount_end(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); @@ -718,16 +721,19 @@ void vtime_account_user(struct task_struct *tsk) cputime_t delta_cpu; write_seqcount_begin(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); - delta_cpu = get_vtime_delta(tsk); tsk->vtime_snap_whence = VTIME_SYS; - account_user_time(tsk, delta_cpu, cputime_to_scaled(delta_cpu)); + if (vtime_delta(tsk)) { + delta_cpu = get_vtime_delta(tsk); + account_user_time(tsk, delta_cpu, cputime_to_scaled(delta_cpu)); + } write_seqcount_end(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); } void vtime_user_enter(struct task_struct *tsk) { write_seqcount_begin(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); - __vtime_account_system(tsk); + if (vtime_delta(tsk)) + __vtime_account_system(tsk); tsk->vtime_snap_whence = VTIME_USER; write_seqcount_end(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); } @@ -742,7 +748,8 @@ void vtime_guest_enter(struct task_struct *tsk) * that can thus safely catch up with a tickless delta. */ write_seqcount_begin(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); - __vtime_account_system(tsk); + if (vtime_delta(tsk)) + __vtime_account_system(tsk); current->flags |= PF_VCPU; write_seqcount_end(&tsk->vtime_seqcount); } @@ -772,7 +779,7 @@ void arch_vtime_task_switch(struct task_struct *prev) write_seqcount_begin(¤t->vtime_seqcount); current->vtime_snap_whence = VTIME_SYS; - current->vtime_snap = sched_clock_cpu(smp_processor_id()); + current->vtime_snap = jiffies; write_seqcount_end(¤t->vtime_seqcount); } @@ -783,7 +790,7 @@ void vtime_init_idle(struct task_struct *t, int cpu) local_irq_save(flags); write_seqcount_begin(&t->vtime_seqcount); t->vtime_snap_whence = VTIME_SYS; - t->vtime_snap = sched_clock_cpu(cpu); + t->vtime_snap = jiffies; write_seqcount_end(&t->vtime_seqcount); local_irq_restore(flags); }
