Therefore, remove bootmem special cases from the scheduler and use plain GFP_KERNEL instead.

Furthermore, CPU_NEWLY_IDLE invocations will result in all cpus calling it, even though a slow update of cpu_power is sufficient. Therefore move the update under 'idle != CPU_NEWLY_IDLE && local_group' to reduce superfluous invocations.

It is racy because another thread can clear ->running before thread_group_cputimer() takes cputimer->lock. In this case thread_group_cputimer() will set ->running = true again and call thread_group_cputime(). But since we do not hold tasklist or siglock, we can race with fork/exit and copy the wrong results into cputimer->cputime. It is unneeded because if ->running == true we can just use the numbers in cputimer->cputime we already have. Change fastpath_timer_check() to copy cputimer->cputime into the local variable under cputimer->lock. We do not re-check ->running under cputimer->lock, run_posix_cpu_timers() does this check later. Note: we can add more optimizations on top of this change.

It checks ->sighand != NULL under rcu, but this can't help if ->signal can go away. Fortunately the caller either holds ->siglock, or it is fastpath_timer_check() which uses current and checks exit_state == 0. - Since ea6d290c commit tsk->signal is stable, we can read it first and avoid the initialization from INIT_CPUTIME. - Even if tsk->signal is always valid, we still have to check it is safe to use next_thread() under rcu_read_lock(). Currently the code checks ->sighand != NULL, change it to use pid_alive() which is commonly used to ensure the task wasn't unhashed before we take rcu_read_lock(). Add the comment to explain this check. - Change the main loop to use the while_each_thread() helper.

There are 3 SMT modes: SMT1 uses thread 0 SMT2 uses threads 0 & 1 SMT4 uses threads 0, 1, 2 & 3 When in any particular SMT mode, all threads have the same performance as each other (ie. at any moment in time, all threads perform the same). The SMT mode switching works such that when linux has threads 2 & 3 idle and 0 & 1 active, it will cede (H_CEDE hypercall) threads 2 and 3 in the idle loop and the hypervisor will automatically switch to SMT2 for that core (independent of other cores). The opposite is not true, so if threads 0 & 1 are idle and 2 & 3 are active, we will stay in SMT4 mode. Similarly if thread 0 is active and threads 1, 2 & 3 are idle, we'll go into SMT1 mode. If we can get the core into a lower SMT mode (SMT1 is best), the threads will perform better (since they share less core resources). Hence when we have idle threads, we want them to be the higher ones. This adds a feature bit for asymmetric packing to powerpc and then enables it on POWER7.

This is primarily intended to used at the sibling level. Some cores like POWER7 prefer to use lower numbered SMT threads. In the case of POWER7, it can move to lower SMT modes only when higher threads are idle. When in lower SMT modes, the threads will perform better since they share less core resources. Hence when we have idle threads, we want them to be the higher ones. This adds a hook into f_b_g() called check_asym_packing() to check the packing. This packing function is run on idle threads. It checks to see if the busiest CPU in this domain (core in the P7 case) has a higher CPU number than what where the packing function is being run on. If it is, calculate the imbalance and return the higher busier thread as the busiest group to f_b_g(). Here we are assuming a lower CPU number will be equivalent to a lower SMT thread number. It also creates a new SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to enable this feature at any scheduler domain level. It also creates an arch hook to enable this feature at the sibling level. The default function doesn't enable this feature. Based heavily on patch from Peter Zijlstra. Fixes from Srivatsa Vaddagiri.

For example on a Power7 core with 4 hardware threads, core power is 1177 and thus power of each hardware thread is 1177/4 = 294. This low power can lead to capacity for each hardware thread being calculated as 0, which leads to tasks bouncing within the core madly! Fix this by reporting capacity for hardware threads as 1, provided their power is not scaled down significantly because of frequency scaling or real-time tasks usage of cpu.

There is still the concept of idle load balancer (performing the load balancing on behalf of all the idle cpu's in the system). Busy CPU kicks the nohz balancer when any of the nohz CPUs need idle load balancing. The kickee CPU does the idle load balancing on behalf of all idle CPUs instead of the normal idle balance. This addresses the below two problems with the current nohz ilb logic: * the idle load balancer continued to have periodic ticks during idle and wokeup frequently, even though it did not have any rebalancing to do on behalf of any of the idle CPUs. * On x86 and CPUs that have APIC timer stoppage on idle CPUs, this periodic wakeup can result in a periodic additional interrupt on a CPU doing the timer broadcast. Also currently we are migrating the unpinned timers from an idle to the cpu doing idle load balancing (when all the cpus in the system are idle, there is no idle load balancing cpu and timers get added to the same idle cpu where the request was made. So the existing optimization works only on semi idle system). And In semi idle system, we no longer have periodic ticks on the idle load balancer CPU. Using that cpu will add more delays to the timers than intended (as that cpu's timer base may not be uptodate wrt jiffies etc). This was causing mysterious slowdowns during boot etc. For now, in the semi idle case, use the nearest busy cpu for migrating timers from an idle cpu. This is good for power-savings anyway.

With tickless idle, there are no scheduler ticks called on the idle CPUs. Idle CPUs may still do load balancing (with idle_load_balance CPU) using the stale cpu_load. It will also cause problems when all CPUs go idle for a while and become active again. In this case loads would not degrade as expected. This is how rq->nr_load_updates change looks like under different conditions: <cpu_num> <nr_load_updates change> All CPUS idle for 10 seconds (HZ=1000) 0 1621 10 496 11 139 12 875 13 1672 14 12 15 21 1 1472 2 2426 3 1161 4 2108 5 1525 6 701 7 249 8 766 9 1967 One CPU busy rest idle for 10 seconds 0 10003 10 601 11 95 12 966 13 1597 14 114 15 98 1 3457 2 93 3 6679 4 1425 5 1479 6 595 7 193 8 633 9 1687 All CPUs busy for 10 seconds 0 10026 10 10026 11 10026 12 10026 13 10025 14 10025 15 10025 1 10026 2 10026 3 10026 4 10026 5 10026 6 10026 7 10026 8 10026 9 10026 That is update_cpu_load works properly only when all CPUs are busy. If all are idle, all the CPUs get way lower updates. And when few CPUs are busy and rest are idle, only busy and ilb CPU does proper updates and rest of the idle CPUs will do lower updates. The patch keeps track of when a last update was done and fixes up the load avg based on current time. On one of my test system SPECjbb with warehouse 1..numcpus, patch improves throughput numbers by ~1% (average of 6 runs). On another test system (with different domain hierarchy) there is no noticable change in perf.

Using these two hooks, cmwq keeps track of the current concurrency level and throttles execution of new works if it's too high and wakes up another worker from the sleep hook if it becomes too low. This patch introduces PF_WQ_WORKER to identify workqueue workers and adds the following two hooks. * wq_worker_waking_up(): called when a worker is woken up. * wq_worker_sleeping(): called when a worker is going to sleep and may return a pointer to a local task which should be woken up. The returned task is woken up using try_to_wake_up_local() which is simplified ttwu which is called under rq lock and can only wake up local tasks. Both hooks are currently defined as noop in kernel/workqueue_sched.h. Later cmwq implementation will replace them with proper implementation. These hooks are hard coded as they'll always be enabled.

Depending on configuration options, it ends up generating the same object code as before or slightly different one due to different register assignment. This is to help future implementation of try_to_wake_up_local(). Mike Galbraith suggested rename to ttwu_post_activation() from ttwu_woken_up() and comment update in try_to_wake_up().

When a cpu is coming up, it's set before CPU_ONLINE but cpuset configuration again is updated from the same cpu notifier. For cpu notifiers, this presents an inconsistent state. Threads which a CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifier expects to be bound to the CPU can be migrated to other cpus because the cpu is no more inactive. Fix it by updating cpu_active in the highest priority cpu notifier and cpuset configuration in the second highest when a cpu is coming up. Down path is updated similarly. This guarantees that all other cpu notifiers see consistent cpu_active and cpuset configuration. cpuset_track_online_cpus() notifier is converted to cpuset_update_active_cpus() which just updates the configuration and now called from cpuset_cpu_[in]active() notifiers registered from sched_init_smp(). If cpuset is disabled, cpuset_update_active_cpus() degenerates into partition_sched_domains() making separate notifier for !CONFIG_CPUSETS unnecessary. This problem is triggered by cmwq. During CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, hotplug callback creates a kthread and kthread_bind()s it to the target cpu, and the thread is expected to run on that cpu. * Ingo's test discovered __cpuinit/exit markups were incorrect.

So if an arch, that has the previous and the new nmi watchdog implementations cohabiting, wants to know if the generic one is in use, CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR is not a reliable check. We need to use CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR instead.

Instead of checking whether we have CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR + CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI each time an arch wants to know if it needs to build its own lockup detector, take a shortcut with this new config. It is enabled only if the hardlockup detection part of the whole lockup detector is on.

This is fine on x86 as PERF_EVENTS is builtin but if other archs select it, they will need to handle the PERF_EVENTS dependency. Instead, handle the dependency in the generic layer: - archs need to tell what they support through HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI - Enable magically PERF_EVENTS_NMI if we have PERF_EVENTS and HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI.

But it was enabled by default if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. So if we want to enable CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR on configs that had CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP, all we need is to have the same enabling by default if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. We can then remove CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP directly. So tag CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR as default y. This is what we want for most serious kernel debugging anyway. And also forbid the lockup detector in S390 as it was for the previous softlockup detector, event though the true reason for that is not outlined.

This may not be the best idea as pointed out by Frederic W., that the touch_watchdog case probably should not reset the hardlockup count.
