core.c has become rather large, move most scheduler syscall
related functionality into a separate file, syscalls.c.
This is about ~15% of core.c's raw linecount.
Move the alloc_user_cpus_ptr(), __rt_effective_prio(),
rt_effective_prio(), uclamp_none(), uclamp_se_set()
and uclamp_bucket_id() inlines to kernel/sched/sched.h.
Internally export the __sched_setscheduler(), __sched_setaffinity(),
__setscheduler_prio(), set_load_weight(), enqueue_task(), dequeue_task(),
check_class_changed(), splice_balance_callbacks() and balance_callbacks()
methods to better facilitate this.
Move the new file's build to sched_policy.c, because it fits there
semantically, but also because it's the smallest of the 4 build units
under an allmodconfig build:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 7.3M May 27 12:35 kernel/sched/core.i
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 6.4M May 27 12:36 kernel/sched/build_utility.i
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 6.3M May 27 12:36 kernel/sched/fair.i
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 5.8M May 27 12:36 kernel/sched/build_policy.i
This better balances build time for scheduler subsystem rebuilds.
I build-tested this new file as a standalone syscalls.o file for a bit,
to make sure all the encapsulations & abstractions are robust.
Also update/add my copyright notices to these files.
Build time measurements:
# -Before/+After:
kepler:~/tip> perf stat -e 'cycles,instructions,duration_time' --sync --repeat 5 --pre 'rm -f kernel/sched/*.o' m kernel/sched/built-in.a >/dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'm kernel/sched/built-in.a' (5 runs):
- 71,938,508,607 cycles ( +- 0.17% )
+ 71,992,916,493 cycles ( +- 0.22% )
- 106,214,780,964 instructions # 1.48 insn per cycle ( +- 0.01% )
+ 105,450,231,154 instructions # 1.46 insn per cycle ( +- 0.01% )
- 5,878,232,620 ns duration_time ( +- 0.38% )
+ 5,290,085,069 ns duration_time ( +- 0.21% )
- 5.8782 +- 0.0221 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.38% )
+ 5.2901 +- 0.0111 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.21% )
Build time improvement of -11.1% (duration_time) is expected: the
parallel build time of the scheduler subsystem is determined by the
largest, slowest to build object file, which is kernel/sched/core.o.
By moving ~15% of its complexity into another build unit, we reduced
build time by -11%.
Measured cycles spent on building is within its ~0.2% stddev noise envelope.
The -0.7% reduction in instructions spent on building the scheduler is
statistically reliable and somewhat surprising - I can only speculate:
maybe compilers aren't that efficient at building & optimizing 10+ KLOC files
(core.c), and it's an overall win to balance the linecount a bit.
Anyway, this might be a data point that suggests that reducing the linecount
of our largest files will improve not just code readability and maintainability,
but might also improve build times a bit.
Code generation got a bit worse, by 0.5kb text on an x86 defconfig build:

44866 12655 2192 59713 e941 kernel/sched/build_utility.o (ex kernel/sched/built-in.a)
This is primarily due to the extra functions exported, and the size
gets exaggerated somewhat by __pfx CFI function padding:
ffffffff810cc710 <__pfx_enqueue_task>:
ffffffff810cc710: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc711: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc712: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc713: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc714: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc715: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc716: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc717: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc718: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc719: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc71a: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc71b: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc71c: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc71d: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc71e: 90 nop
ffffffff810cc71f: 90 nop
AFAICS the cost is primarily not to core.o and fair.o though (which contain
most performance sensitive scheduler functions), only to syscalls.o
that get called with much lower frequency - so I think this is an acceptable
trade-off for better code separation.
