2008-10-09sched debug: add name to sched_domain sysctl entriesIngo Molnar
add /proc/sys/kernel/sched_domain/cpu0/domain0/name, to make it easier to see which specific scheduler domain remained at that entry. Since we process the scheduler domain tree and simplify it, it's not always immediately clear during debugging which domain came from where. depends on CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y.

2008-09-29hrtimer: prevent migration of per CPU hrtimersThomas Gleixner
Impact: per CPU hrtimers can be migrated from a dead CPU The hrtimer code has no knowledge about per CPU timers, but we need to prevent the migration of such timers and warn when such a timer is active at migration time. Explicitely mark the timers as per CPU and use a more understandable mode descriptor for the interrupts safe unlocked callback mode, which is used by hrtimer_sleeper and the scheduler code.

2008-09-22sched: wakeup preempt when small overlapPeter Zijlstra
Lin Ming reported a 10% OLTP regression against 2.6.27-rc4. The difference seems to come from different preemption agressiveness, which affects the cache footprint of the workload and its effective cache trashing. Aggresively preempt a task if its avg overlap is very small, this should avoid the task going to sleep and find it still running when we schedule back to it - saving a wakeup.

2008-09-06sched: arch_reinit_sched_domains() must destroy domains to force rebuildMax Krasnyansky
What I realized recently is that calling rebuild_sched_domains() in arch_reinit_sched_domains() by itself is not enough when cpusets are enabled. partition_sched_domains() code is trying to avoid unnecessary domain rebuilds and will not actually rebuild anything if new domain masks match the old ones. What this means is that doing echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings on a system with cpusets enabled will not take affect untill something changes in the cpuset setup (ie new sets created or deleted). This patch fixes restore correct behaviour where domains must be rebuilt in order to enable MC powersaving flags. Test on quad-core Core2 box with both CONFIG_CPUSETS and !CONFIG_CPUSETS. Also tested on dual-core Core2 laptop. Lockdep is happy and things are working as expected.

2008-09-05sched: fix process time monotonicityBalbir Singh
Spencer reported a problem where utime and stime were going negative despite the fixes in commit b27f03d4bdc145a09fb7b0c0e004b29f1ee555fa. The suspected reason for the problem is that signal_struct maintains it's own utime and stime (of exited tasks), these are not updated using the new task_utime() routine, hence sig->utime can go backwards and cause the same problem to occur (sig->utime, adds tsk->utime and not task_utime()). This patch fixes the problem TODO: using max(task->prev_utime, derived utime) works for now, but a more generic solution is to implement cputime_max() and use the cputime_gt() function for comparison.

2008-08-22wait_task_inactive: "improve" the returned value for ->nvcsw == 0Oleg Nesterov
wait_task_inactive() returns 1 when p->nvcsw == 0 || p->nvcsw == 1. This means that two subsequent calls can return the same number while the task was scheduled in between. Change the code to return "nvcsw | LONG_MIN" instead of "nvcsw ?: 1", now the overlap always needs LONG_MAX schedules.

2008-08-22wait_task_inactive(): don't consider task->nivcswOleg Nesterov
If wait_task_inactive() returns success the task was deactivated. In that case schedule() always increments ->nvcsw which alone can be used as a "generation counter". If the next call returns the same number, we can be sure that the task was unscheduled. Otherwise, because we know that .on_rq == 0 again, ->nvcsw should have been changed in between. Q: perhaps it is better to do "ncsw = (p->nvcsw << 1) | 1" ? This decreases the possibility of "was it unscheduled" false positive when ->nvcsw == 0.

2008-08-19sched: rt-bandwidth fixesPeter Zijlstra
The last patch allows sysctl_sched_rt_runtime to disable bandwidth accounting for the group scheduler - however it doesn't deal with sched_setscheduler(), which will keep tasks out of groups that have no assigned runtime. If we relax this, we get into the situation where RT tasks can get into a group when we disable bandwidth control, and then starve them by enabling it again. Rework the schedulability code to check for this condition and fail to turn on bandwidth control with -EBUSY when this situation is found.

2008-08-11lockdep: re-annotate scheduler runqueuesPeter Zijlstra
Instead of using a per-rq lock class, use the regular nesting operations. However, take extra care with double_lock_balance() as it can release the already held rq->lock (and therefore change its nesting class). So what can happen is: spin_lock(rq->lock); // this rq subclass 0 double_lock_balance(rq, other_rq); // release rq // acquire other_rq->lock subclass 0 // acquire rq->lock subclass 1 spin_unlock(other_rq->lock); leaving you with rq->lock in subclass 1 So a subsequent double_lock_balance() call can try to nest a subclass 1 lock while already holding a subclass 1 lock. Fix this by introducing double_unlock_balance() which releases the other rq's lock, but also re-sets the subclass for this rq's lock to 0.

2008-08-01lockdep: change scheduler annotationPeter Zijlstra
While thinking about David's graph walk lockdep patch it _finally_ dawned on me that there is no reason we have a lock class per cpu ... Sorry for being dense :-/ The below changes the annotation from a lock class per cpu, to a single nested lock, as the scheduler never holds more that 2 rq locks at a time anyway. If there was code requiring holding all rq locks this would not work and the original annotation would be the only option, but that not being the case, this is a much lighter one.

2008-07-21sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store functionAndi Kleen
This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Initially I needed it because the hrtimer base lock could not nest in the rq lock. That however is fixed these days. Currently the only reason left to fiddle with the TIF flags is remote wakeups. We cannot program a remote cpu's hrtimer. I've been thinking about using the new and improved IPI function call stuff to implement hrtimer_start_on(). However that does require that smp_call_function_single(.wait=0) works from interrupt context - /me looks at the latest series from Jens - Yes that does seem to be supported, good. Here's a stab at cleaning this stuff up ... Mihai reported test success as well.

2008-07-18cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce cpu_active_map and redo sched domain managment ↵Max Krasnyansky
(take 2) This is based on Linus' idea of creating cpu_active_map that prevents scheduler load balancer from migrating tasks to the cpu that is going down. It allows us to simplify domain management code and avoid unecessary domain rebuilds during cpu hotplug event handling. Please ignore the cpusets part for now. It needs some more work in order to avoid crazy lock nesting. Although I did simplfy and unify domain reinitialization logic. We now simply call partition_sched_domains() in all the cases. This means that we're using exact same code paths as in cpusets case and hence the test below cover cpusets too. Cpuset changes to make rebuild_sched_domains() callable from various contexts are in the separate patch (right next after this one). This not only boots but also easily handles while true; do make clean; make -j 8; done and while true; do on-off-cpu 1; done at the same time. (on-off-cpu 1 simple does echo 0/1 > /sys/.../cpu1/online thing). Suprisingly the box (dual-core Core2) is quite usable. In fact I'm typing this on right now in gnome-terminal and things are moving just fine. Also this is running with most of the debug features enabled (lockdep, mutex, etc) no BUG_ONs or lockdep complaints so far. I believe I addressed all of the Dmitry's comments for original Linus' version. I changed both fair and rt balancer to mask out non-active cpus. And replaced cpu_is_offline() with !cpu_active() in the main scheduler code where it made sense (to me).
