* Add new 'cond_resched_bkl()' helper functionLinus Torvalds2008-05-121-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It acts exactly like a regular 'cond_resched()', but will not get optimized away when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set. Normal kernel code is already preemptable in the presense of CONFIG_PREEMPT, so cond_resched() is optimized away (see commit 02b67cc3ba36bdba351d6c3a00593f4ec550d9d3 "sched: do not do cond_resched() when CONFIG_PREEMPT"). But when wanting to conditionally reschedule while holding a lock, you need to use "cond_sched_lock(lock)", and the new function is the BKL equivalent of that. Also make fs/locks.c use it.

* BKL: revert back to the old spinlock implementationLinus Torvalds2008-05-111-23/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The generic semaphore rewrite had a huge performance regression on AIM7 (and potentially other BKL-heavy benchmarks) because the generic semaphores had been rewritten to be simple to understand and fair. The latter, in particular, turns a semaphore-based BKL implementation into a mess of scheduling. The attempt to fix the performance regression failed miserably (see the previous commit 00b41ec2611dc98f87f30753ee00a53db648d662 'Revert "semaphore: fix"'), and so for now the simple and sane approach is to instead just go back to the old spinlock-based BKL implementation that never had any issues like this. This patch also has the advantage of being reported to fix the regression completely according to Yanmin Zhang, unlike the semaphore hack which still left a couple percentage point regression. As a spinlock, the BKL obviously has the potential to be a latency issue, but it's not really any different from any other spinlock in that respect. We do want to get rid of the BKL asap, but that has been the plan for several years. These days, the biggest users are in the tty layer (open/release in particular) and Alan holds out some hope: "tty release is probably a few months away from getting cured - I'm afraid it will almost certainly be the very last user of the BKL in tty to get fixed as it depends on everything else being sanely locked." so while we're not there yet, we do have a plan of action.

* sched: add optional support for CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCKPeter Zijlstra2008-05-051-152/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this replaces the rq->clock stuff (and possibly cpu_clock()). - architectures that have an 'imperfect' hardware clock can set CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK - the 'jiffie' window might be superfulous when we update tick_gtod before the __update_sched_clock() call in sched_clock_tick() - cpu_clock() might be implemented as: sched_clock_cpu(smp_processor_id()) if the accuracy proves good enough - how far can TSC drift in a single jiffie when considering the filtering and idle hooks?

* sched: fix cpu clockIngo Molnar2008-05-051-9/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | David Miller pointed it out that nothing in cpu_clock() sets prev_cpu_time. This caused __sync_cpu_clock() to be called all the time - against the intention of this code. The result was that in practice we hit a global spinlock every time cpu_clock() is called - which - even though cpu_clock() is used for tracing and debugging, is suboptimal. While at it, also: - move the irq disabling to the outest layer, this should make cpu_clock() warp-free when called with irqs enabled. - use long long instead of cycles_t - for platforms where cycles_t is 32-bit.

* sched: fair-group: fix a Div0 error of the fair group schedulerMiao Xie2008-05-051-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I echoed 0 into the "cpu.shares" file, a Div0 error occured. We found it is caused by the following calling. sched_group_set_shares(tg, shares) set_se_shares(tg->se[i], shares/nr_cpu_ids) __set_se_shares(se, shares) div64_64((1ULL<<32), shares) When the echoed value was less than the number of processores, the result of the sentence "shares/nr_cpu_ids" was 0, and then the system called div64() to divide the result, the Div0 error occured. It is unnecessary that the shares value is divided by nr_cpu_ids, I think. Because in the function __update_group_shares_cpu() and init_tg_cfs_entry(), the shares value isn't divided by nr_cpu_ids when setting shares of the sched entity. This patch fixes this bug. And echoing ULONG_MAX value into cpu.shares also causes Div0 error, so we set a macro MAX_SHARES to limit the max value of shares.

* sched: fix missing locking in sched_domains codeHeiko Carstens2008-05-051-17/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Concurrent calls to detach_destroy_domains and arch_init_sched_domains were prevented by the old scheduler subsystem cpu hotplug mutex. When this got converted to get_online_cpus() the locking got broken. Unlike before now several processes can concurrently enter the critical sections that were protected by the old lock. So use the already present doms_cur_mutex to protect these sections again.

The problem this code tries to solve is 'accurately' calculating the 'fair' share of the group weight for each cpu. The current code falls back to a global group rebalance in case the sched_domain's span it looks at has no shares, but does have tasks. The reason it gets stuck here, is because its inherently racy - if someone steals the last task after we compute the agg->rq_weight, but before we rebalance, we'll never get out of the loop. We could of course go fix that, but while looking at this issue I found that this 'fallback' wasn't nearly as rare as I'd hoped it to be. In fact its quite common - and given it walks the whole machine, thats very bad. The new approach is simple (why didn't I think of it before?), we set the aggregate shares to the full task group weight, and each larger sched domain that encounters an aggregate shares larger than the weight, clips it (it already re-distributes anyway). This nicely converges to the desired global picture where the sum of all shares equals the task group weight.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to level the hierarchy, we need to calculate load based on the root view. That is, each task's load is in the same unit. A / \ B 1 / \ 2 3 To compute 1's load we do: weight(1) -------------- rq_weight(A) To compute 2's load we do: weight(2) weight(B) ------------ * ----------- rq_weight(B) rw_weight(A) This yields load fractions in comparable units. The consequence is that it changes virtual time. We used to have: time_{i} vtime_{i} = ------------ weight_{i} vtime = \Sum vtime_{i} = time / rq_weight.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement SMP nice support for the full group hierarchy. On each load-balance action, compile a sched_domain wide view of the full task_group tree. We compute the domain wide view when walking down the hierarchy, and readjust the weights when walking back up. After collecting and readjusting the domain wide view, we try to balance the tasks within the task_groups. The current approach is a naively balance each task group until we've moved the targeted amount of load. Inspired by Srivatsa Vaddsgiri's previous code and Abhishek Chandra's H-SMP paper. XXX: there will be some numerical issues due to the limited nature of SCHED_LOAD_SCALE wrt to representing a task_groups influence on the total weight. When the tree is deep enough, or the task weight small enough, we'll run out of bits.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Change fixed size arrays to per_cpu variables or dynamically allocated arrays in sched_init() and sched_init_smp(). (1) static struct sched_entity *init_sched_entity_p[NR_CPUS]; (1) static struct cfs_rq *init_cfs_rq_p[NR_CPUS]; (1) static struct sched_rt_entity *init_sched_rt_entity_p[NR_CPUS]; (1) static struct rt_rq *init_rt_rq_p[NR_CPUS]; static struct sched_group **sched_group_nodes_bycpu[NR_CPUS]; (1) - these arrays are allocated via alloc_bootmem_low() * Change sched_domain_debug_one() to use cpulist_scnprintf instead of cpumask_scnprintf. This reduces the output buffer required and improves readability when large NR_CPU count machines arrive. * In sched_create_group() we allocate new arrays based on nr_cpu_ids.

* sched: allow cpuacct stats to be resetDhaval Giani2008-04-191-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the schedstats implementation does not allow the statistics to be reset. This patch aims to allow that. echo 0 > cpuacct.usage resets the usage. Any other value is not allowed and returns -EINVAL. Signed-off-by: Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* sched: rt-group: smp balancingPeter Zijlstra2008-04-191-3/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the rt group scheduling does a per cpu runtime limit, however the rt load balancer makes no guarantees about an equal spread of real- time tasks, just that at any one time, the highest priority tasks run. Solve this by making the runtime limit a global property by borrowing excessive runtime from the other cpus once the local limit runs out.

* sched: rt-group: synchonised bandwidth periodPeter Zijlstra2008-04-191-49/+211
| | | | | | | | | | | Various SMP balancing algorithms require that the bandwidth period run in sync. Possible improvements are moving the rt_bandwidth thing into root_domain and keeping a span per rt_bandwidth which marks throttled cpus.
