2012-10-29cputime: Specialize irq vtime hooksFrederic Weisbecker
With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING, when vtime_account() is called in irq entry/exit, we perform a check on the context: if we are interrupting the idle task we account the pending cputime to idle, otherwise account to system time or its sub-areas: tsk->stime, hardirq time, softirq time, ... However this check for idle only concerns the hardirq entry and softirq entry: * Hardirq may directly interrupt the idle task, in which case we need to flush the pending CPU time to idle. * The idle task may be directly interrupted by a softirq if it calls local_bh_enable(). There is probably no such call in any idle task but we need to cover every case. Ksoftirqd is not concerned because the idle time is flushed on context switch and softirq in the end of hardirq have the idle time already flushed from the hardirq entry. In the other cases we always account to system/irq time: * On hardirq exit we account the time to hardirq time. * On softirq exit we account the time to softirq time. To optimize this and avoid the indirect call to vtime_account() and the checks it performs, specialize the vtime irq APIs and only perform the check on irq entry. Irq exit can directly call vtime_account_system(). CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING behaviour doesn't change and directly maps to its own vtime_account() implementation. One may want to take benefits from the new APIs to optimize irq time accounting as well in the future.

2012-10-29kvm: Directly account vtime to system on guest switchFrederic Weisbecker
Switching to or from guest context is done on ioctl context. So by the time we call kvm_guest_enter() or kvm_guest_exit() we know we are not running the idle task. As a result, we can directly account the cputime using vtime_account_system(). There are two good reasons to do this: * We avoid some useless checks on guest switch. It optimizes a bit this fast path. * In the case of CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING, calling vtime_account() checks for irq time to account. This is pointless since we know we are not in an irq on guest switch. This is wasting cpu cycles for no good reason. vtime_account_system() OTOH is a no-op in this config option. * We can remove the irq disable/enable around kvm guest switch in s390. A further optimization may consist in introducing a vtime_account_guest() that directly calls account_guest_time().

2012-10-29vtime: Make vtime_account_system() irqsafeFrederic Weisbecker
vtime_account_system() currently has only one caller with vtime_account() which is irq safe. Now we are going to call it from other places like kvm where irqs are not always disabled by the time we account the cputime. So let's make it irqsafe. The arch implementation part is now prefixed with "__". vtime_account_idle() arch implementation is prefixed accordingly to stay consistent.

2012-10-24sched: Make __update_entity_runnable_avg() fastPaul Turner
__update_entity_runnable_avg forms the core of maintaining an entity's runnable load average. In this function we charge the accumulated run-time since last update and handle appropriate decay. In some cases, e.g. a waking task, this time interval may be much larger than our period unit. Fortunately we can exploit some properties of our series to perform decay for a blocked update in constant time and account the contribution for a running update in essentially-constant* time. [*]: For any running entity they should be performing updates at the tick which gives us a soft limit of 1 jiffy between updates, and we can compute up to a 32 jiffy update in a single pass. C program to generate the magic constants in the arrays: #include <math.h> #include <stdio.h> #define N 32 #define WMULT_SHIFT 32 const long WMULT_CONST = ((1UL << N) - 1); double y; long runnable_avg_yN_inv[N]; void calc_mult_inv() { int i; double yn = 0; printf("inverses\n"); for (i = 0; i < N; i++) { yn = (double)WMULT_CONST * pow(y, i); runnable_avg_yN_inv[i] = yn; printf("%2d: 0x%8lx\n", i, runnable_avg_yN_inv[i]); } printf("\n"); } long mult_inv(long c, int n) { return (c * runnable_avg_yN_inv[n]) >> WMULT_SHIFT; } void calc_yn_sum(int n) { int i; double sum = 0, sum_fl = 0, diff = 0; /* * We take the floored sum to ensure the sum of partial sums is never * larger than the actual sum. */ printf("sum y^n\n"); printf(" %8s %8s %8s\n", "exact", "floor", "error"); for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) { sum = (y * sum + y * 1024); sum_fl = floor(y * sum_fl+ y * 1024); printf("%2d: %8.0f %8.0f %8.0f\n", i, sum, sum_fl, sum_fl - sum); } printf("\n"); } void calc_conv(long n) { long old_n; int i = -1; printf("convergence (LOAD_AVG_MAX, LOAD_AVG_MAX_N)\n"); do { old_n = n; n = mult_inv(n, 1) + 1024; i++; } while (n != old_n); printf("%d> %ld\n", i - 1, n); printf("\n"); } void main() { y = pow(0.5, 1/(double)N); calc_mult_inv(); calc_conv(1024); calc_yn_sum(N); } [ Compile with -lm ] Signed-off-by: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Reviewed-by: Ben Segall <bsegall@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120823141507.277808946@google.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

2012-10-24sched: Maintain runnable averages across throttled periodsPaul Turner
With bandwidth control tracked entities may cease execution according to user specified bandwidth limits. Charging this time as either throttled or blocked however, is incorrect and would falsely skew in either direction. What we actually want is for any throttled periods to be "invisible" to load-tracking as they are removed from the system for that interval and contribute normally otherwise. Do this by moderating the progression of time to omit any periods in which the entity belonged to a throttled hierarchy.

2012-10-24sched: Normalize tg load contributions against runnable timePaul Turner
Entities of equal weight should receive equitable distribution of cpu time. This is challenging in the case of a task_group's shares as execution may be occurring on multiple cpus simultaneously. To handle this we divide up the shares into weights proportionate with the load on each cfs_rq. This does not however, account for the fact that the sum of the parts may be less than one cpu and so we need to normalize: load(tg) = min(runnable_avg(tg), 1) * tg->shares Where runnable_avg is the aggregate time in which the task_group had runnable children.

2012-10-24sched: Account for blocked load waking back upPaul Turner
When a running entity blocks we migrate its tracked load to cfs_rq->blocked_runnable_avg. In the sleep case this occurs while holding rq->lock and so is a natural transition. Wake-ups however, are potentially asynchronous in the presence of migration and so special care must be taken. We use an atomic counter to track such migrated load, taking care to match this with the previously introduced decay counters so that we don't migrate too much load.

2012-10-24sched: Maintain the load contribution of blocked entitiesPaul Turner
We are currently maintaining: runnable_load(cfs_rq) = \Sum task_load(t) For all running children t of cfs_rq. While this can be naturally updated for tasks in a runnable state (as they are scheduled); this does not account for the load contributed by blocked task entities. This can be solved by introducing a separate accounting for blocked load: blocked_load(cfs_rq) = \Sum runnable(b) * weight(b) Obviously we do not want to iterate over all blocked entities to account for their decay, we instead observe that: runnable_load(t) = \Sum p_i*y^i and that to account for an additional idle period we only need to compute: y*runnable_load(t). This means that we can compute all blocked entities at once by evaluating: blocked_load(cfs_rq)` = y * blocked_load(cfs_rq) Finally we maintain a decay counter so that when a sleeping entity re-awakens we can determine how much of its load should be removed from the blocked sum.

2012-10-24sched: Track the runnable average on a per-task entity basisPaul Turner
Instead of tracking averaging the load parented by a cfs_rq, we can track entity load directly. With the load for a given cfs_rq then being the sum of its children. To do this we represent the historical contribution to runnable average within each trailing 1024us of execution as the coefficients of a geometric series. We can express this for a given task t as: runnable_sum(t) = \Sum u_i * y^i, runnable_avg_period(t) = \Sum 1024 * y^i load(t) = weight_t * runnable_sum(t) / runnable_avg_period(t) Where: u_i is the usage in the last i`th 1024us period (approximately 1ms) ~ms and y is chosen such that y^k = 1/2. We currently choose k to be 32 which roughly translates to about a sched period.

When compiling to use compiler feedback support, the compiler by default omits .eh_frame information, so we don't see this problem.

2012-10-23drm/ttm: Fix a theoretical race in ttm_bo_cleanup_refs()Thomas Hellstrom
In theory, that function could release the lru lock between checking for bo on ddestroy list and a successful reserve if the bo was already reserved, and the function was called with waiting reserves allowed. However, all current reservers of a bo on the ddestroy list would atomically take the bo off the list after a successful reserve so this race should not have been hit, so no need to backport for stable. This patch also fixes a case found by Maarten Lankhorst where ttm_mem_evict_first called with no_wait_gpu would incorrectly spin waiting for bo idle if trying to evict a busy buffer that also sits on the ddestroy list.

2012-10-22Input: fix use-after-free introduced with dynamic minor changesDmitry Torokhov
Commit 7f8d4cad1e4e ("Input: extend the number of event (and other) devices") made evdev, joydev and mousedev to embed struct cdev into their respective structures representing input devices. Unfortunately character device structure may outlive the parent structure unless we do not set it up as parent of character device so that it will stay pinned until character device is freed. Also, now that parent structure is pinned while character device exists we do not need to pin and unpin it every time user opens or closes it.

2012-10-22char_dev: pin parent kobjectDmitry Torokhov
In certain cases (for example when a cdev structure is embedded into another object whose lifetime is controlled by a separate kobject) it is beneficial to tie lifetime of another object to the lifetime of character device so that related object is not freed until after char_dev object is freed. To achieve this let's pin kobject's parent when doing cdev_add() and unpin when last reference to cdev structure is being released.
