Although idle load balancing obviously only concerns idle CPUs, it can
be a disturbance on a busy nohz_full CPU. Indeed a CPU can only get rid
of an idle load balancing duty once a tick fires while it runs a task
and this can take a while on a nohz_full CPU.
We could fix that and escape the idle load balancing duty from the very
idle exit path but that would bring unecessary overhead. Lets just not
bother and leave that job to housekeeping CPUs (those outside nohz_full
range). The nohz_full CPUs simply don't want any disturbance.

The idle load balancing registration path assumes that we only stop the
tick when the CPU is idle, ignoring the nohz full case. As a result, a
nohz full CPU that is running a task may be chosen to perform idle load
balancing.
Lets make sure that only CPUs in dynticks idle mode can be picked as
idle load balancers.

The loadavg naming code still assumes that nohz == idle whereas its code
is actually handling well both nohz idle and nohz full.
So lets fix the naming according to what the code actually does, to
unconfuse the reader.

So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the
code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry.
Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are
not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case
the 'task_list' name is actively confusing.
To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure
fields unambiguously:
struct wait_queue_head::task_list => ::head
struct wait_queue_entry::task_list => ::entry
For example, this code:
rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list
... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way:
rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry
... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head.
Other examples are:
list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) {
list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) {
... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's
hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be
a bug), while now it's written as:
list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) {
list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) {

The wait_bit*() types and APIs are mixed into wait.h, but they
are a pretty orthogonal extension of wait-queues.
Furthermore, only about 50 kernel files use these APIs, while
over 1000 use the regular wait-queue functionality.
So clean up the main wait.h by moving the wait-bit functionality
out of it, into a separate .h and .c file:
include/linux/wait_bit.h for types and APIs
kernel/sched/wait_bit.c for the implementation
Update all header dependencies.
This reduces the size of wait.h rather significantly, by about 30%.

So wait-bit-queue head variables are often named:
struct wait_bit_queue *q
... which is a bit ambiguous and super confusing, because
they clearly suggest wait-queue head semantics and behavior
(they rhyme with the old wait_queue_t *q naming), while they
are extended wait-queue _entries_, not heads!
They are misnomers in two ways:
- the 'wait_bit_queue' leaves open the question of whether
it's an entry or a head
- the 'q' parameter and local variable naming falsely implies
that it's a 'queue' - while it's an entry.
This resulted in sometimes confusing cases such as:
finish_wait(wq, &q->wait);
where the 'q' is not a wait-queue head, but a wait-bit-queue entry.
So improve this all by standardizing wait-bit-queue nomenclature
similar to wait-queue head naming:
struct wait_bit_queue => struct wait_bit_queue_entry
q => wbq_entry
Which makes it all a much clearer:
struct wait_bit_queue_entry *wbq_entry
... and turns the former confusing piece of code into:
finish_wait(wq_head, &wbq_entry->wq_entry;
which IMHO makes it apparently clear what we are doing,
without having to analyze the context of the code: we are
adding a wait-queue entry to a regular wait-queue head,
which entry is embedded in a wait-bit-queue entry.
I'm not a big fan of acronyms, but repeating wait_bit_queue_entry
in field and local variable names is too long, so Hopefully it's
clear enough that 'wq_' prefixes stand for wait-queues, while
'wbq_' prefixes stand for wait-bit-queues.

The wait-queue head parameters and variables are named in a
couple of ways, we have the following variants currently:
wait_queue_head_t *q
wait_queue_head_t *wq
wait_queue_head_t *head
In particular the 'wq' naming is ambiguous in the sense whether it's
a wait-queue head or entry name - as entries were often named 'wait'.
( Not to mention the confusion of any readers coming over from
workqueue-land. )
Standardize all this around a single, unambiguous parameter and
variable name:
struct wait_queue_head *wq_head
which is easy to grep for and also rhymes nicely with the wait-queue
entry naming:
struct wait_queue_entry *wq_entry
Also rename:
struct __wait_queue_head => struct wait_queue_head
... and use this struct type to migrate from typedefs usage to 'struct'
usage, which is more in line with existing kernel practices.
Don't touch any external users and preserve the main wait_queue_head_t
typedef.

So the various wait-queue entry variables in include/linux/wait.h
and kernel/sched/wait.c are named in a colorfully inconsistent
way:
wait_queue_entry_t *wait
wait_queue_entry_t *__wait (even in plain C code!)
wait_queue_entry_t *q (!)
wait_queue_entry_t *new (making anyone who knows C++ cringe)
wait_queue_entry_t *old
I think part of the reason for the inconsistency is the constant
apparent confusion about what a wait queue 'head' versus 'entry' is.
( Some of the documentation talks about a 'wait descriptor', which is
the wait-queue entry itself - further adding to the confusion. )
The most common name is 'wait', but that in itself is somewhat
ambiguous as well, as it does not really make it clear whether
it's a wait-queue entry or head.
To improve all this name the wait-queue entry structure parameters
and variables consistently and push through this naming into all
the wait.h and wait.c code:
struct wait_queue_entry *wq_entry
The 'wq_' prefix makes it easy to grep for, and we also use the
opportunity to move away from the typedef to a plain 'struct' naming:
in the kernel we typically reserve typedefs for cases where a
C structure is really small and somewhat opaque - such as pte_t.
wait-queue entries are neither small nor opaque, so use the more
standard 'struct xxx_entry' list management code nomenclature instead.
( We don't touch external users, and we preserve the typedef as well
for actual wait-queue users, to reduce unnecessary churn. )

Rename:
wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t
'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
which had to carry the name.
Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.
This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

idle_task_exit() can be called with IRQs on x86 on and therefore
should use switch_mm(), not switch_mm_irqs_off().
This doesn't seem to cause any problems right now, but it will
confuse my upcoming TLB flush changes. Nonetheless, I think it
should be backported because it's trivial. There won't be any
meaningful performance impact because idle_task_exit() is only
used when offlining a CPU.

Linu Cherian reported a WARN in cleanup_srcu_struct() when shutting
down a guest running iperf on a VFIO assigned device. This happens
because irqfd_wakeup() calls srcu_read_lock(&kvm->irq_srcu) in interrupt
context, while a worker thread does the same inside kvm_set_irq(). If the
interrupt happens while the worker thread is executing __srcu_read_lock(),
updates to the Classic SRCU ->lock_count[] field or the Tree SRCU
->srcu_lock_count[] field can be lost.
The docs say you are not supposed to call srcu_read_lock() and
srcu_read_unlock() from irq context, but KVM interrupt injection happens
from (host) interrupt context and it would be nice if SRCU supported the
use case. KVM is using SRCU here not really for the "sleepable" part,
but rather due to its IPI-free fast detection of grace periods. It is
therefore not desirable to switch back to RCU, which would effectively
revert commit 719d93cd5f5c ("kvm/irqchip: Speed up KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING",
2014-01-16).
However, the docs are overly conservative. You can have an SRCU instance
only has users in irq context, and you can mix process and irq context
as long as process context users disable interrupts. In addition,
__srcu_read_unlock() actually uses this_cpu_dec() on both Tree SRCU and
Classic SRCU. For those two implementations, only srcu_read_lock()
is unsafe.
When Classic SRCU's __srcu_read_unlock() was changed to use this_cpu_dec(),
in commit 5a41344a3d83 ("srcu: Simplify __srcu_read_unlock() via
this_cpu_dec()", 2012-11-29), __srcu_read_lock() did two increments.
Therefore it kept __this_cpu_inc(), with preempt_disable/enable in
the caller. Tree SRCU however only does one increment, so on most
architectures it is more efficient for __srcu_read_lock() to use
this_cpu_inc(), and any performance differences appear to be down in
the noise.

2014-01-16).
However, the docs are overly conservative. You can have an SRCU instance
only has users in irq context, and you can mix process and irq context
as long as process context users disable interrupts. In addition,
__srcu_read_unlock() actually uses this_cpu_dec() on both Tree SRCU and
Classic SRCU. For those two implementations, only srcu_read_lock()
is unsafe.
When Classic SRCU's __srcu_read_unlock() was changed to use this_cpu_dec(),
in commit 5a41344a3d83 ("srcu: Simplify __srcu_read_unlock() via
this_cpu_dec()", 2012-11-29), __srcu_read_lock() did two increments.
Therefore it kept __this_cpu_inc(), with preempt_disable/enable in
the caller. Tree SRCU however only does one increment, so on most
architectures it is more efficient for __srcu_read_lock() to use
this_cpu_inc(), and any performance differences appear to be down in
the noise.
Unlike Classic and Tree SRCU, Tiny SRCU does increments and decrements on
a single variable. Therefore, as Peter Zijlstra pointed out, Tiny SRCU's
implementation already supports mixed-context use of srcu_read_lock()
and srcu_read_unlock(), at least as long as uses of srcu_read_lock()
and srcu_read_unlock() in each handler are nested and paired properly.
In other words, it is still illegal to (say) invoke srcu_read_lock()
in an interrupt handler and to invoke the matching srcu_read_unlock()
in a softirq handler. Therefore, the only change required for Tiny SRCU
is to its comments.

This reverts commit cf39bf58afdaabc0b86f141630fb3fd18190294e.
The commit regression to users that define both console=ttyS1
and console=ttyS0 on the command line, see
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170509082915.GA13236@bistromath.localdomain
The kernel log messages always appeared only on one serial port. It is
even documented in Documentation/admin-guide/serial-console.rst:
"Note that you can only define one console per device type (serial,
video)."
The above mentioned commit changed the order in which the command line
parameters are searched. As a result, the kernel log messages go to
the last mentioned ttyS* instead of the first one.
We long thought that using two console=ttyS* on the command line
did not make sense. But then we realized that console= parameters
were handled also by systemd, see
http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/serial-console.html
"By default systemd will instantiate one serial-getty@.service on
the main kernel console, if it is not a virtual terminal."
where
"[4] If multiple kernel consoles are used simultaneously, the main
console is the one listed first in /sys/class/tty/console/active,
which is the last one listed on the kernel command line."
This puts the original report into another light. The system is running
in qemu. The first serial port is used to store the messages into a file.
The second one is used to login to the system via a socket. It depends
on systemd and the historic kernel behavior.
By other words, systemd causes that it makes sense to define both
console=ttyS1 console=ttyS0 on the command line. The kernel fix
caused regression related to userspace (systemd) and need to be
reverted.
In addition, it went out that the fix helped only partially.
The messages still were duplicated when the boot console was
removed early by late_initcall(printk_late_init). Then the entire
log was replayed when the same console was registered as a normal one.

We have been facing some problems with self-suspending constrained
deadline tasks. The main reason is that the original CBS was not
designed for such sort of tasks.
One problem reported by Xunlei Pang takes place when a task
suspends, and then is awakened before the deadline, but so close
to the deadline that its remaining runtime can cause the task
to have an absolute density higher than allowed. In such situation,
the original CBS assumes that the task is facing an early activation,
and so it replenishes the task and set another deadline, one deadline
in the future. This rule works fine for implicit deadline tasks.
Moreover, it allows the system to adapt the period of a task in which
the external event source suffered from a clock drift.
However, this opens the window for bandwidth leakage for constrained
deadline tasks. For instance, a task with the following parameters:
runtime = 5 ms
deadline = 7 ms
[density] = 5 / 7 = 0.71
period = 1000 ms
If the task runs for 1 ms, and then suspends for another 1ms,
it will be awakened with the following parameters:
remaining runtime = 4
laxity = 5
presenting a absolute density of 4 / 5 = 0.80.
In this case, the original CBS would assume the task had an early
wakeup. Then, CBS will reset the runtime, and the absolute deadline will
be postponed by one relative deadline, allowing the task to run.
The problem is that, if the task runs this pattern forever, it will keep
receiving bandwidth, being able to run 1ms every 2ms. Following this
behavior, the task would be able to run 500 ms in 1 sec. Thus running
more than the 5 ms / 1 sec the admission control allowed it to run.
Trying to address the self-suspending case, Luca Abeni, Giuseppe
Lipari, and Juri Lelli [1] revisited the CBS in order to deal with
self-suspending tasks. In the new approach, rather than
replenishing/postponing the absolute deadline, the revised wakeup rule
adjusts the remaining runtime, reducing it to fit into the allowed
density.
A revised version of the idea is:
At a given time t, the maximum absolute density of a task cannot be
higher than its relative density, that is:
runtime / (deadline - t) <= dl_runtime / dl_deadline
Knowing the laxity of a task (deadline - t), it is possible to move
it to the other side of the equality, thus enabling to define max
remaining runtime a task can use within the absolute deadline, without
over-running the allowed density:
runtime = (dl_runtime / dl_deadline) * (deadline - t)
For instance, in our previous example, the task could still run:
runtime = ( 5 / 7 ) * 5
runtime = 3.57 ms
Without causing damage for other deadline tasks. It is note worthy
that the laxity cannot be negative because that would cause a negative
runtime. Thus, this patch depends on the patch:
df8eac8cafce ("sched/deadline: Throttle a constrained deadline task activated after the deadline")
Which throttles a constrained deadline task activated after the
deadline.
Finally, it is also possible to use the revised wakeup rule for
all other tasks, but that would require some more discussions
about pros and cons.

This commit introduces a per-runqueue "extra utilization" that can be
reclaimed by deadline tasks. In this way, the maximum fraction of CPU
time that can reclaimed by deadline tasks is fixed (and configurable)
and does not depend on the total deadline utilization.
The GRUB accounting rule is modified to add this "extra utilization"
to the inactive utilization of the runqueue, and to avoid reclaiming
more than a maximum fraction of the CPU time.

Instead of decreasing the runtime as "dq = -Uact dt" (eventually
divided by the maximum utilization available for deadline tasks),
decrease it as "dq = -max{u, (1 - Uinact)} dt", where u is the task
utilization and Uinact is the "inactive utilization".
In this way, the maximum fraction of CPU time that can be reclaimed
is given by the total utilization of deadline tasks.
This approach solves a fairness issue with "traditional" global GRUB
reclaiming: using the traditional GRUB algorithm, if tasks are
allocated to the various cores in a non-uniform way, the
reclaiming mechanism allows some tasks to reclaim more time than
others. This issue is visible starting 11 time-consuming tasks with
runtime 10ms and period 30ms (total utilization 3.666) on a 4-cores
system: some tasks will receive much more than the reserved runtime
(thanks to the reclaiming mechanism), while other tasks will receive
less than the reserved runtime.

Active utilization is defined as the total utilization of active
(TASK_RUNNING) tasks queued on a runqueue. Hence, it is increased
when a task wakes up and is decreased when a task blocks.
When a task is migrated from CPUi to CPUj, immediately subtract the
task's utilization from CPUi and add it to CPUj. This mechanism is
implemented by modifying the pull and push functions.
Note: this is not fully correct from the theoretical point of view
(the utilization should be removed from CPUi only at the 0 lag
time), a more theoretically sound solution is presented in the
next patches.

Hackbench recently suffered a bunch of pain, first by commit:
4c77b18cf8b7 ("sched/fair: Make select_idle_cpu() more aggressive")
and then by commit:
c743f0a5c50f ("sched/fair, cpumask: Export for_each_cpu_wrap()")
which fixed a bug in the initial for_each_cpu_wrap() implementation
that made select_idle_cpu() even more expensive. The bug was that it
would skip over CPUs when bits were consequtive in the bitmask.
This however gave me an idea to fix select_idle_cpu(); where the old
scheme was a cliff-edge throttle on idle scanning, this introduces a
more gradual approach. Instead of stopping to scan entirely, we limit
how many CPUs we scan.
Initial benchmarks show that it mostly recovers hackbench while not
hurting anything else, except Mason's schbench, but not as bad as the
old thing.
It also appears to recover the tbench high-end, which also suffered like
hackbench.
