2021-01-22sched: Relax the set_cpus_allowed_ptr() semanticsPeter Zijlstra1-11/+10
Now that we have KTHREAD_IS_PER_CPU to denote the critical per-cpu tasks to retain during CPU offline, we can relax the warning in set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Any spurious kthread that wants to get on at the last minute will get pushed off before it can run. While during CPU online there is no harm, and actual benefit, to allowing kthreads back on early, it simplifies hotplug code and fixes a number of outstanding races.

2021-01-22sched: Fix CPU hotplug / tighten is_per_cpu_kthread()Peter Zijlstra1-4/+35
Prior to commit 1cf12e08bc4d ("sched/hotplug: Consolidate task migration on CPU unplug") we'd leave any task on the dying CPU and break affinity and force them off at the very end. This scheme had to change in order to enable migrate_disable(). One cannot wait for migrate_disable() to complete while stuck in stop_machine(). Furthermore, since we need at the very least: idle, hotplug and stop threads at any point before stop_machine, we can't break affinity and/or push those away. Under the assumption that all per-cpu kthreads are sanely handled by CPU hotplug, the new code no long breaks affinity or migrates any of them (which then includes the critical ones above). However, there's an important difference between per-cpu kthreads and kthreads that happen to have a single CPU affinity which is lost. The latter class very much relies on the forced affinity breaking and migration semantics previously provided. Use the new kthread_is_per_cpu() infrastructure to tighten is_per_cpu_kthread() and fix the hot-unplug problems stemming from the change.

2021-01-22sched: Prepare to use balance_push in ttwu()Peter Zijlstra1-5/+6
In preparation of using the balance_push state in ttwu() we need it to provide a reliable and consistent state. The immediate problem is that rq->balance_callback gets cleared every schedule() and then re-set in the balance_push_callback() itself. This is not a reliable signal, so add a variable that stays set during the entire time. Also move setting it before the synchronize_rcu() in sched_cpu_deactivate(), such that we get guaranteed visibility to ttwu(), which is a preempt-disable region.

2021-01-22sched/core: Print out straggler tasks in sched_cpu_dying()Valentin Schneider1-1/+23
Since commit 1cf12e08bc4d ("sched/hotplug: Consolidate task migration on CPU unplug") tasks are expected to move themselves out of a out-going CPU. For most tasks this will be done automagically via BALANCE_PUSH, but percpu kthreads will have to cooperate and move themselves away one way or another. Currently, some percpu kthreads (workqueues being a notable exemple) do not cooperate nicely and can end up on an out-going CPU at the time sched_cpu_dying() is invoked. Print the dying rq's tasks to shed some light on the stragglers.

It has to disable migration instead to guarantee that the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same across preemption. - Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced utilization of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the architecture allows it. - Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup the kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage sites do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and pagefaults so the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is removed and quite some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale conversion is not possible because some usage depends on the implicit side effects and some need to be cleaned up because they work around these side effects.

2020-11-24sched: highmem: Store local kmaps in task structThomas Gleixner1-0/+25
Instead of storing the map per CPU provide and use per task storage. That prepares for local kmaps which are preemptible. The context switch code is preparatory and not yet in use because kmap_atomic() runs with preemption disabled. Will be made usable in the next step. The context switch logic is safe even when an interrupt happens after clearing or before restoring the kmaps. The kmap index in task struct is not modified so any nesting kmap in an interrupt will use unused indices and on return the counter is the same as before. Also add an assert into the return to user space code. Going back to user space with an active kmap local is a nono.

Now that the scheduler can deal with migrate disable properly, there is no real compelling reason to make it only available for RT. There are quite some code pathes which needlessly disable preemption in order to prevent migration and some constructs like kmap_atomic() enforce it implicitly. Making it available independent of RT allows to provide a preemptible variant of kmap_atomic() and makes the code more consistent in general.

2020-11-19sched/uclamp: Allow to reset a task uclamp constraint valueDietmar Eggemann1-19/+51
In case the user wants to stop controlling a uclamp constraint value for a task, use the magic value -1 in sched_util_{min,max} with the appropriate sched_flags (SCHED_FLAG_UTIL_CLAMP_{MIN,MAX}) to indicate the reset. The advantage over the 'additional flag' approach (i.e. introducing SCHED_FLAG_UTIL_CLAMP_RESET) is that no additional flag has to be exported via uapi. This avoids the need to document how this new flag has be used in conjunction with the existing uclamp related flags. The following subtle issue is fixed as well. When a uclamp constraint value is set on a !user_defined uclamp_se it is currently first reset and then set. Fix this by AND'ing !user_defined with !SCHED_FLAG_UTIL_CLAMP which stands for the 'sched class change' case. The related condition 'if (uc_se->user_defined)' moved from __setscheduler_uclamp() into uclamp_reset().

2020-11-19sched/core: Add missing completion for affine_move_task() waitersValentin Schneider1-1/+12
Qian reported that some fuzzer issuing sched_setaffinity() ends up stuck on a wait_for_completion(). The problematic pattern seems to be: affine_move_task() // task_running() case stop_one_cpu(); wait_for_completion(&pending->done); Combined with, on the stopper side: migration_cpu_stop() // Task moved between unlocks and scheduling the stopper task_rq(p) != rq && // task_running() case dest_cpu >= 0 => no complete_all() This can happen with both PREEMPT and !PREEMPT, although !PREEMPT should be more likely to see this given the targeted task has a much bigger window to block and be woken up elsewhere before the stopper runs. Make migration_cpu_stop() always look at pending affinity requests; signal their completion if the stopper hits a rq mismatch but the task is still within its allowed mask. When Migrate-Disable isn't involved, this matches the previous set_cpus_allowed_ptr() vs migration_cpu_stop() behaviour.

Problem is that boosted entities (Priority Inheritance) use static DEADLINE parameters of the top priority waiter. However, there might be cases where top waiter could be a non-DEADLINE entity that is currently boosted by a DEADLINE entity from a different lock chain (i.e., nested priority chains involving entities of non-DEADLINE classes). In this case, top waiter static DEADLINE parameters could be null (initialized to 0 at fork()) and replenish_dl_entity() would hit a BUG(). Fix this by keeping track of the original donor and using its parameters when a task is boosted.

2020-11-10sched: Fix migrate_disable() vs rt/dl balancingPeter Zijlstra1-10/+57
In order to minimize the interference of migrate_disable() on lower priority tasks, which can be deprived of runtime due to being stuck below a higher priority task. Teach the RT/DL balancers to push away these higher priority tasks when a lower priority task gets selected to run on a freshly demoted CPU (pull). This adds migration interference to the higher priority task, but restores bandwidth to system that would otherwise be irrevocably lost. Without this it would be possible to have all tasks on the system stuck on a single CPU, each task preempted in a migrate_disable() section with a single high priority task running. This way we can still approximate running the M highest priority tasks on the system. Migrating the top task away is (ofcourse) still subject to migrate_disable() too, which means the lower task is subject to an interference equivalent to the worst case migrate_disable() section.

2020-11-10sched: Fix migrate_disable() vs set_cpus_allowed_ptr()Peter Zijlstra1-30/+206
Concurrent migrate_disable() and set_cpus_allowed_ptr() has interesting features. We rely on set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to not return until the task runs inside the provided mask. This expectation is exported to userspace. This means that any set_cpus_allowed_ptr() caller must wait until migrate_enable() allows migrations. At the same time, we don't want migrate_enable() to schedule, due to patterns like: preempt_disable(); migrate_disable(); ... migrate_enable(); preempt_enable(); And: raw_spin_lock(&B); spin_unlock(&A); this means that when migrate_enable() must restore the affinity mask, it cannot wait for completion thereof. Luck will have it that that is exactly the case where there is a pending set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), so let that provide storage for the async stop machine. Much thanks to Valentin who used TLA+ most effective and found lots of 'interesting' cases.

2020-11-10sched: Fix hotplug vs CPU bandwidth controlPeter Zijlstra1-4/+10
Since we now migrate tasks away before DYING, we should also move bandwidth unthrottle, otherwise we can gain tasks from unthrottle after we expect all tasks to be gone already. Also; it looks like the RT balancers don't respect cpu_active() and instead rely on rq->online in part, complete this. This too requires we do set_rq_offline() earlier to match the cpu_active() semantics. (The bigger patch is to convert RT to cpu_active() entirely) Since set_rq_online() is called from sched_cpu_activate(), place set_rq_offline() in sched_cpu_deactivate().

2020-11-10sched/hotplug: Consolidate task migration on CPU unplugThomas Gleixner1-119/+35
With the new mechanism which kicks tasks off the outgoing CPU at the end of schedule() the situation on an outgoing CPU right before the stopper thread brings it down completely is: - All user tasks and all unbound kernel threads have either been migrated away or are not running and the next wakeup will move them to a online CPU. - All per CPU kernel threads, except cpu hotplug thread and the stopper thread have either been unbound or parked by the responsible CPU hotplug callback. That means that at the last step before the stopper thread is invoked the cpu hotplug thread is the last legitimate running task on the outgoing CPU. Add a final wait step right before the stopper thread is kicked which ensures that any still running tasks on the way to park or on the way to kick themself of the CPU are either sleeping or gone. This allows to remove the migrate_tasks() crutch in sched_cpu_dying(). If sched_cpu_dying() detects that there is still another running task aside of the stopper thread then it will explode with the appropriate fireworks.

2020-11-10sched/core: Wait for tasks being pushed away on hotplugThomas Gleixner1-1/+39
RT kernels need to ensure that all tasks which are not per CPU kthreads have left the outgoing CPU to guarantee that no tasks are force migrated within a migrate disabled section. There is also some desire to (ab)use fine grained CPU hotplug control to clear a CPU from active state to force migrate tasks which are not per CPU kthreads away for power control purposes. Add a mechanism which waits until all tasks which should leave the CPU after the CPU active flag is cleared have moved to a different online CPU.

2020-11-10sched/hotplug: Ensure only per-cpu kthreads run during hotplugPeter Zijlstra1-2/+112
In preparation for migrate_disable(), make sure only per-cpu kthreads are allowed to run on !active CPUs. This is ran (as one of the very first steps) from the cpu-hotplug task which is a per-cpu kthread and completion of the hotplug operation only requires such tasks. This constraint enables the migrate_disable() implementation to wait for completion of all migrate_disable regions on this CPU at hotplug time without fear of any new ones starting. This replaces the unlikely(rq->balance_callbacks) test at the tail of context_switch with an unlikely(rq->balance_work), the fast path is not affected.

2020-11-10sched: Fix balance_callback()Peter Zijlstra1-44/+75
The intent of balance_callback() has always been to delay executing balancing operations until the end of the current rq->lock section. This is because balance operations must often drop rq->lock, and that isn't safe in general. However, as noted by Scott, there were a few holes in that scheme; balance_callback() was called after rq->lock was dropped, which means another CPU can interleave and touch the callback list. Rework code to call the balance callbacks before dropping rq->lock where possible, and otherwise splice the balance list onto a local stack. This guarantees that the balance list must be empty when we take rq->lock. IOW, we'll only ever run our own balance callbacks.
