sched/idle: Optimize try-to-wake-up IPI

[ This series reduces the number of IPIs on Andy's workload by something like
  99%. It's down from many hundreds per second to very few.

  The basic idea behind this series is to make TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG be a
  reliable indication that the idle task is polling.  Once that's done,
  the rest is reasonably straightforward. ]

When enqueueing tasks on remote LLC domains, we send an IPI to do the
work 'locally' and avoid bouncing all the cachelines over.

However, when the remote CPU is idle (and polling, say x86 mwait), we
don't need to send an IPI, we can simply kick the TIF word to wake it
up and have the 'idle' loop do the work.

So when _TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is set, but _TIF_NEED_RESCHED is not (yet)
set, set _TIF_NEED_RESCHED and avoid sending the IPI.

sched/idle: Clear polling before descheduling the idle thread

that, if you hold rq->lock and the polling bit is set, then you can
set need_resched to force a reschedule.

The only reason the lock is needed is that the idle thread might not
be running at all when setting its need_resched bit, and rq->lock
keeps it pinned.

This is easy to fix: just clear the polling bit before scheduling.
Now the idle thread's polling bit is only ever set when
rq->curr == rq->idle.

10 years agosched/fair: Fix unlocked reads of some cfs_b->quota/period

sched/fair: Fix unlocked reads of some cfs_b->quota/period

sched_cfs_period_timer() reads cfs_b->period without locks before calling
do_sched_cfs_period_timer(), and similarly unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs()
would read cfs_b->period without the right lock. Thus a simultaneous
change of bandwidth could cause corruption on any platform where ktime_t
or u64 writes/reads are not atomic.

Extend cfs_b->lock from do_sched_cfs_period_timer() to include the read of
cfs_b->period to solve that issue; unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs() can just
use 1 rather than the exact quota, much like distribute_cfs_runtime()
does.

There is also an unlocked read of cfs_b->runtime_expires, but a race
there would only delay runtime expiry by a tick. Still, the comparison
should just be != anyway, which clarifies even that problem.

sched/numa: Decay ->wakee_flips instead of zeroing

Affine wakeups have the potential to interfere with NUMA placement.
If a task wakes up too many other tasks, affine wakeups will get
disabled.

However, regardless of how many other tasks it wakes up, it gets
re-enabled once a second, potentially interfering with NUMA

sched: Fix the rq->next_balance logic in rebalance_domains() and idle_balance()

Currently, in idle_balance(), we update rq->next_balance when we pull_tasks.
However, it is also important to update this in the !pulled_tasks case too.

When the CPU is "busy" (the CPU isn't idle), rq->next_balance gets computed
using sd->busy_factor (so we increase the balance interval when the CPU is
busy). However, when the CPU goes idle, rq->next_balance could still be set
to a large value that was computed with the sd->busy_factor.

Thus, we need to also update rq->next_balance in idle_balance() in the cases
where !pulled_tasks too, so that rq->next_balance gets updated without taking
the busy_factor into account when the CPU is about to go idle.

This patch makes rq->next_balance get updated independently of whether or
not we pulled_task. Also, we add logic to ensure that we always traverse
at least 1 of the sched domains to get a proper next_balance value for
updating rq->next_balance.

Additionally, since load_balance() modifies the sd->balance_interval, we
need to re-obtain the sched domain's interval after the call to
load_balance() in rebalance_domains() before we update rq->next_balance.

This patch adds and uses 2 new helper functions, update_next_balance() and
get_sd_balance_interval() to update next_balance and obtain the sched
domain's balance_interval.

10 years agosched/deadline: Restrict user params max value to 2^63 ns
Juri Lelli [Tue, 13 May 2014 12:11:31 +0000 (14:11 +0200)]
sched/deadline: Restrict user params max value to 2^63 ns

Michael Kerrisk noticed that creating SCHED_DEADLINE reservations
with certain parameters (e.g, a runtime of something near 2^64 ns)
can cause a system freeze for some amount of time.

The problem is that in the interface we have

 u64 sched_runtime;

while internally we need to have a signed runtime (to cope with
budget overruns)

 s64 runtime;

At the time we setup a new dl_entity we copy the first value in
the second. The cast turns out with negative values when
sched_runtime is too big, and this causes the scheduler to go crazy
right from the start.

Moreover, considering how we deal with deadlines wraparound

 (s64)(a - b) < 0

we also have to restrict acceptable values for sched_{deadline,period}.

This patch fixes the thing checking that user parameters are always
below 2^63 ns (still large enough for everyone).

It also rewrites other conditions that we check, since in
__checkparam_dl we don't have to deal with deadline wraparounds
and what we have now erroneously fails when the difference between
values is too big.

10 years agosched: Make sched_setattr() correctly return -EFBIG
Michael Kerrisk [Fri, 9 May 2014 14:54:15 +0000 (16:54 +0200)]
sched: Make sched_setattr() correctly return -EFBIG

The documented[1] behavior of sched_attr() in the proposed man page text is:

    sched_attr::size must be set to the size of the structure, as in
    sizeof(struct sched_attr), if the provided structure is smaller
    than the kernel structure, any additional fields are assumed
    '0'. If the provided structure is larger than the kernel structure,
    the kernel verifies all additional fields are '0' if not the
    syscall will fail with -E2BIG.

As currently implemented, sched_copy_attr() returns -EFBIG for
for this case, but the logic in sys_sched_setattr() converts that
error to -EFAULT. This patch fixes the behavior.

     the other way around and it didn't work.  From Lv Zheng.

     present, but prevent it from using the feature the _DSM is for.

   - ACPI AC driver conversion in 3.13 broke thermal management on at
     least one machine and has to be reverted.  From Guenter Roeck.

   - Two reverts of 3.13 commits that attempted to remove the old ACPI
     battery interface in /proc, but turned out to break some utilities
     still using that interface.  From Lan Tianyu.

     modifying the CPU device's .offline field which leads to breakage
     if the initial online of the CPU fails.  From Igor Mammedov.

   - Two intel_pstate fixes, one to take a BayTrail documentation update
     into account and one to avoid forcing the maximum P-state on init
     which causes CPU PM trouble on systems with P-states coordination

target: fix memory leak on XCOPY

On each processed XCOPY command, two "kmalloc-512" memory objects are
leaked. These represent two allocations of struct xcopy_pt_cmd in
target_core_xcopy.c.

The reason for the memory leak is that the cmd_kref field is not
initialized (thus, it is zero because the allocations were done with
kzalloc). When we decrement zero kref in target_put_sess_cmd, the result
is not zero, thus target_release_cmd_kref is not called.

This patch fixes the bug by moving kref initialization from
target_get_sess_cmd to transport_init_se_cmd (this function is called from
target_core_xcopy.c, so it will correctly initialize cmd_kref). It can be
easily verified that all code that calls target_get_sess_cmd also calls
transport_init_se_cmd earlier, thus moving kref_init shouldn't introduce
any new problems.

random: fix BUG_ON caused by accounting simplification

Commit ee1de406ba6eb1 ("random: simplify accounting logic") simplified
things too much, in that it allows the following to trigger an
overflow that results in a BUG_ON crash:

dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/zero bs=67108707 count=1

Thanks to Peter Zihlstra for discovering the crash, and Hannes
Frederic for analyizing the root cause.

10 years agolibceph: fix corruption when using page_count 0 page in rbd
Chunwei Chen [Wed, 23 Apr 2014 04:35:09 +0000 (12:35 +0800)]
libceph: fix corruption when using page_count 0 page in rbd

It has been reported that using ZFSonLinux on rbd will result in memory
corruption. The bug report can be found here:

https://github.com/zfsonlinux/spl/issues/241
http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/7790

The reason is that ZFS will send pages with page_count 0 into rbd, which in
turns send them to tcp_sendpage. However, tcp_sendpage cannot deal with
page_count 0, as it will do get_page and put_page, and erroneously free the
page.

This type of issue has been noted before, and handled in iscsi, drbd,
etc. So, rbd should also handle this. This fix address this issue by fall back
to slower sendmsg when page_count 0 detected.
