From 7dc603c9028ea5d4354e0e317e8481df99b06d7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2016 13:29:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new tasks Vincent and Yuyang found another few scenarios in which entity tracking goes wobbly. The scenarios are basically due to the fact that new tasks are not immediately attached and thereby differ from the normal situation -- a task is always attached to a cfs_rq load average (such that it includes its blocked contribution) and are explicitly detached/attached on migration to another cfs_rq. Scenario 1: switch to fair class p->sched_class = fair_class; if (queued) enqueue_task(p); ... enqueue_entity() enqueue_entity_load_avg() migrated = !sa->last_update_time (true) if (migrated) attach_entity_load_avg() check_class_changed() switched_from() (!fair) switched_to() (fair) switched_to_fair() attach_entity_load_avg() If @p is a new task that hasn't been fair before, it will have !last_update_time and, per the above, end up in attach_entity_load_avg() _twice_. Scenario 2: change between cgroups sched_move_group(p) if (queued) dequeue_task() task_move_group_fair() detach_task_cfs_rq() detach_entity_load_avg() set_task_rq() attach_task_cfs_rq() attach_entity_load_avg() if (queued) enqueue_task(); ... enqueue_entity() enqueue_entity_load_avg() migrated = !sa->last_update_time (true) if (migrated) attach_entity_load_avg() Similar as with scenario 1, if @p is a new task, it will have !load_update_time and we'll end up in attach_entity_load_avg() _twice_. Furthermore, notice how we do a detach_entity_load_avg() on something that wasn't attached to begin with. As stated above; the problem is that the new task isn't yet attached to the load tracking and thereby violates the invariant assumption. This patch remedies this by ensuring a new task is indeed properly attached to the load tracking on creation, through post_init_entity_util_avg(). Of course, this isn't entirely as straightforward as one might think, since the task is hashed before we call wake_up_new_task() and thus can be poked at. We avoid this by adding TASK_NEW and teaching cpu_cgroup_can_attach() to refuse such tasks.
