signal: Refactor send_sigqueue()
To handle posix timers which have their signal ignored via SIG_IGN properly it is required to requeue a ignored signal for delivery when SIG_IGN is lifted so the timer gets rearmed. Split the required code out of send_sigqueue() so it can be reused in context of sigaction(). While at it rename send_sigqueue() to posixtimer_send_sigqueue() so its clear what this is about.

mm: move mm flags to mm_types.h
The types of mm flags are now far beyond the core dump related features. This patch moves mm flags from linux/sched/coredump.h to linux/mm_types.h. The linux/sched/coredump.h has include the mm_types.h, so the C files related to coredump does not need to change head file inclusion. In addition, the inclusion of sched/coredump.h now can be deleted from the C files that irrelevant to core dump.

sched/ext: Remove sched_fork() hack
Instead of solving the underlying problem of the double invocation of
__sched_fork() for idle tasks, sched-ext decided to hack around the issue
by partially clearing out the entity struct to preserve the already
enqueued node. A provided analysis and solution has been ignored for four
months.
Now that someone else has taken care of cleaning it up, remove the
disgusting hack and clear out the full structure. Remove the comment in the
structure declaration as well, as there is no requirement for @node being
the last element anymore.
Fixes:

posix-timers: Cure si_sys_private race
The si_sys_private member of the siginfo which is embedded in the preallocated sigqueue is used by the posix timer code to decide whether a timer must be reprogrammed on signal delivery. The handling of this is racy as a long standing comment in that code documents. It is modified with the timer lock held, but without sighand lock being held. The actual signal delivery code checks for it under sighand lock without holding the timer lock. Hand the new value to send_sigqueue() as argument and store it with sighand lock held. This is an intermediate change to address this issue. The arguments to this function will be cleanup in subsequent changes.

ALong with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series in
this pull request are:
"Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds
consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification.
"Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes - mode
code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.
"mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No functional
changes - code cleanups only.
"Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a little
cleanup.
"mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and

kstack_1k 3
kstack_2k 188
kstack_4k 11391
kstack_8k 243
kstack_16k 0
which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at all
used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but partivularly useful
for "the dynamic kernel stack project".
"kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel Tikhomirov.
Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.
"mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3
independent small optimizations of page counters".

In the v6.12 scheduler development cycle we had 63 commits from 18 contributors:
- Implement the SCHED_DEADLINE server infrastructure - Daniel Bristot de Oliveira's
last major contribution to the kernel:
"SCHED_DEADLINE servers can help fixing starvation issues of low priority
tasks (e.g., SCHED_OTHER) when higher priority tasks monopolize CPU
cycles. Today we have RT Throttling; DEADLINE servers should be able to
replace and improve that."
(Daniel Bristot de Oliveira, Peter Zijlstra, Joel Fernandes,
Youssef Esmat, Huang Shijie)
- Preparatory changes for sched_ext integration:
- Use set_next_task(.first) where required
- Fix up set_next_task() implementations
- Clean up DL server vs. core sched
- Split up put_prev_task_balance()
- Rework pick_next_task()
- Combine the last put_prev_task() and the first set_next_task()
- Rework dl_server
- Add put_prev_task(.next)
(Peter Zijlstra, with a fix by Tejun Heo)
- Complete the EEVDF transition and refine EEVDF scheduling:
- Implement delayed dequeue
- Allow shorter slices to wakeup-preempt
- Use sched_attr::sched_runtime to set request/slice suggestion
- Document the new feature flags
- Remove unused and duplicate-functionality fields
- Simplify & unify pick_next_task_fair()
- Misc debuggability enhancements
(Peter Zijlstra, with fixes/cleanups by Dietmar Eggemann,
Valentin Schneider and Chuyi Zhou)
- Initialize the vruntime of a new task when it is first enqueued,
resulting in significant decrease in latency of newly woken tasks.
(Zhang Qiao)
- Introduce SM_IDLE and an idle re-entry fast-path in __schedule()
(K Prateek Nayak, Peter Zijlstra)
- Clean up and clarify the usage of Clean up usage of rt_task()
(Qais Yousef)
- Preempt SCHED_IDLE entities in strict cgroup hierarchies
(Tianchen Ding)
- Clarify the documentation of time units for deadline scheduler
parameters. (Christian Loehle)
- Remove the HZ_BW chicken-bit feature flag introduced a year ago,
the original change seems to be working fine.
(Phil Auld)
- Misc fixes and cleanups (Chen Yu, Dan Carpenter, Huang Shijie,
Peilin He, Qais Yousefm and Vincent Guittot)

sched_ext: Compact struct bpf_iter_scx_dsq_kern
struct scx_iter_scx_dsq is defined as 6 u64's and scx_dsq_iter_kern was using 5 of them. We want to add two more u64 fields but it's better if we do so while staying within scx_iter_scx_dsq to maintain binary compatibility. The way scx_iter_scx_dsq_kern is laid out is rather inefficient - the node field takes up three u64's but only one bit of the last u64 is used. Turn the bool into u32 flags and only use the lower 16 bits freeing up 48 bits - 16 bits for flags, 32 bits for a u32 - for use by struct bpf_iter_scx_dsq_kern. This allows moving the dsq_seq and flags fields of bpf_iter_scx_dsq_kern into the cursor field reducing the struct size by a full u64. No behavior changes intended.

In preparation for using vm_flags to ensure guard pages for shadow stacks supply them as an argument to generic_get_unmapped_area().

sched_ext: Add cgroup support
Add sched_ext_ops operations to init/exit cgroups, and track task migrations
and config changes. A BPF scheduler may not implement or implement only
subset of cgroup features. The implemented features can be indicated using
%SCX_OPS_HAS_CGOUP_* flags. If cgroup configuration makes use of features
that are not implemented, a warning is triggered.
While a BPF scheduler is being enabled and disabled, relevant cgroup
operations are locked out using scx_cgroup_rwsem. This avoids situations
like task prep taking place while the task is being moved across cgroups,
making things easier for BPF schedulers.
v7: - cgroup interface file visibility toggling is dropped in favor just
warning messages. Dynamically changing interface visiblity caused more
confusion than helping.
v6: - Updated to reflect the removal of SCX_KF_SLEEPABLE.
- Updated to use CONFIG_GROUP_SCHED_WEIGHT and fixes for
!CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED && CONFIG_EXT_GROUP_SCHED.
v5: - Flipped the locking order between scx_cgroup_rwsem and
cpus_read_lock() to avoid locking order conflict w/ cpuset. Better
documentation around locking.
- sched_move_task() takes an early exit if the source and destination
are identical. This triggered the warning in scx_cgroup_can_attach()
as it left p->scx.cgrp_moving_from uncleared. Updated the cgroup
migration path so that ops.cgroup_prep_move() is skipped for identity
migrations so that its invocations always match ops.cgroup_move()
one-to-one.
v4: - Example schedulers moved into their own patches.
- Fix build failure when !CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED, reported by Andrea Righi.
v3: - Make scx_example_pair switch all tasks by default.
- Convert to BPF inline iterators.
- scx_bpf_task_cgroup() is added to determine the current cgroup from
CPU controller's POV. This allows BPF schedulers to accurately track
CPU cgroup membership.
- scx_example_flatcg added. This demonstrates flattened hierarchy
implementation of CPU cgroup control and shows significant performance
improvement when cgroups which are nested multiple levels are under
competition.
v2: - Build fixes for different CONFIG combinations.

sched_ext: TASK_DEAD tasks must be switched into SCX on ops_enable
During scx_ops_enable(), SCX needs to invoke the sleepable ops.init_task() on every task. To do this, it does get_task_struct() on each iterated task, drop the lock and then call ops.init_task(). However, a TASK_DEAD task may already have lost all its usage count and be waiting for RCU grace period to be freed. If get_task_struct() is called on such task, use-after-free can happen. To avoid such situations, scx_ops_enable() skips initialization of TASK_DEAD tasks, which seems safe as they are never going to be scheduled again. Unfortunately, a racing sched_setscheduler(2) can grab the task before the task is unhashed and then continue to e.g. move the task from RT to SCX after TASK_DEAD is set and ops_enable skipped the task. As the task hasn't gone through scx_ops_init_task(), scx_ops_enable_task() called from switching_to_scx() triggers the following warning: sched_ext: Invalid task state transition 0 -> 3 for stress-ng-race-[2872] WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 2367 at kernel/sched/ext.c:3327 scx_ops_enable_task+0x18f/0x1f0 ...

The root cause is ops_enable not being able to tell reliably whether a task is truly dead (no one else is looking at it and it's about to be freed) and was testing TASK_DEAD instead. Fix it by testing the task's usage count directly. - ops_init no longer ignores TASK_DEAD tasks. As now all users iterate all tasks, @include_dead is removed from scx_task_iter_next_locked() along with dead task filtering. - tryget_task_struct() is added. Tasks are skipped iff tryget_task_struct() fails. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: David Vernet <void@manifault.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> |

sched/rt: Clean up usage of rt_task()
rt_task() checks if a task has RT priority. But depends on your dictionary, this could mean it belongs to RT class, or is a 'realtime' task, which includes RT and DL classes. Since this has caused some confusion already on discussion [1], it seemed a clean up is due. I define the usage of rt_task() to be tasks that belong to RT class. Make sure that it returns true only for RT class and audit the users and replace the ones required the old behavior with the new realtime_task() which returns true for RT and DL classes. Introduce similar realtime_prio() to create similar distinction to rt_prio() and update the users that required the old behavior to use the new function. Move MAX_DL_PRIO to prio.h so it can be used in the new definitions. Document the functions to make it more obvious what is the difference between them. PI-boosted tasks is a factor that must be taken into account when choosing which function to use. Rename task_is_realtime() to realtime_task_policy() as the old name is confusing against the new realtime_task(). No functional changes were intended.

sched_ext: Allow p->scx.disallow only while loading
From 1232da7eced620537a78f19c8cf3d4a3508e2419 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2024 09:14:52 -1000
p->scx.disallow provides a way for the BPF scheduler to reject certain tasks
from attaching. It's currently allowed for both the load and fork paths;
however, the latter doesn't actually work as p->sched_class is already set
by the time scx_ops_init_task() is called during fork.
This is a convenience feature which is mostly useful from the load path
anyway. Allow it only from the load path.
v2: Trigger scx_ops_error() iff @p->policy == SCHED_EXT to make it a bit
easier for the BPF scheduler (David).

scx: Allow calling sleepable kfuncs from BPF_PROG_TYPE_SYSCALL
We currently only allow calling sleepable scx kfuncs (i.e. scx_bpf_create_dsq()) from BPF_PROG_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS progs. The idea here was that we'd never have to call scx_bpf_create_dsq() outside of a sched_ext struct_ops callback, but that might not actually be true. For example, a scheduler could do something like the following: 1. Open and load (not yet attach) a scheduler skel 2. Synchronously call into a BPF_PROG_TYPE_SYSCALL prog from user space. For example, to initialize an LLC domain, or some other global, read-only state. 3. Attach the skel, which actually enables the scheduler The advantage of doing this is that it can preclude having to do pretty ugly boilerplate like initializing a read-only, statically sized array of u64[]'s which the kernel consumes literally once at init time to then create struct bpf_cpumask objects which are actually queried at runtime. Doing the above is already possible given that we can invoke core BPF kfuncs, such as bpf_cpumask_create(), from BPF_PROG_TYPE_SYSCALL progs. We already allow many scx kfuncs to be called from BPF_PROG_TYPE_SYSCALL progs (e.g. scx_bpf_kick_cpu()). Let's allow the sleepable kfuncs as well.

sched_ext: Implement DSQ iterator
DSQs are very opaque in the consumption path. The BPF scheduler has no way
of knowing which tasks are being considered and which is picked. This patch
adds BPF DSQ iterator.
- Allows iterating tasks queued on a DSQ in the dispatch order or reverse
from anywhere using bpf_for_each(scx_dsq) or calling the iterator kfuncs
directly.
- Has ordering guarantee where only tasks which were already queued when the
iteration started are visible and consumable during the iteration.
v5: - Add a comment to the naked list_empty(&dsq->list) test in
consume_dispatch_q() to explain the reasoning behind the lockless test
and by extension why nldsq_next_task() isn't used there.
- scx_qmap changes separated into its own patch.
v4: - bpf_iter_scx_dsq_new() declaration in common.bpf.h was using the wrong
type for the last argument (bool rev instead of u64 flags). Fix it.
v3: - Alexei pointed out that the iterator is too big to allocate on stack.
Added a prep patch to reduce the size of the cursor. Now
bpf_iter_scx_dsq is 48 bytes and bpf_iter_scx_dsq_kern is 40 bytes on
64bit.
- u32_before() comparison factored out.
v2: - scx_bpf_consume_task() is separated out into a separate patch.
- DSQ seq and iter flags don't need to be u64. Use u32.

sched_ext: Take out ->priq and ->flags from scx_dsq_node
struct scx_dsq_node contains two data structure nodes to link the containing task to a DSQ and a flags field that is protected by the lock of the associated DSQ. One reason why they are grouped into a struct is to use the type independently as a cursor node when iterating tasks on a DSQ. However, when iterating, the cursor only needs to be linked on the FIFO list and the rb_node part ends up inflating the size of the iterator data structure unnecessarily making it potentially too expensive to place it on stack. Take ->priq and ->flags out of scx_dsq_node and put them in sched_ext_entity as ->dsq_priq and ->dsq_flags, respectively. scx_dsq_node is renamed to scx_dsq_list_node and the field names are renamed accordingly. This will help implementing DSQ task iterator that can be allocated on stack. No functional change intended.

sched_ext: Add vtime-ordered priority queue to dispatch_q's
Currently, a dsq is always a FIFO. A task which is dispatched earlier gets
consumed or executed earlier. While this is sufficient when dsq's are used
for simple staging areas for tasks which are ready to execute, it'd make
dsq's a lot more useful if they can implement custom ordering.
This patch adds a vtime-ordered priority queue to dsq's. When the BPF
scheduler dispatches a task with the new scx_bpf_dispatch_vtime() helper, it
can specify the vtime tha the task should be inserted at and the task is
inserted into the priority queue in the dsq which is ordered according to
time_before64() comparison of the vtime values.
A DSQ can either be a FIFO or priority queue and automatically switches
between the two depending on whether scx_bpf_dispatch() or
scx_bpf_dispatch_vtime() is used. Using the wrong variant while the DSQ
already has the other type queued is not allowed and triggers an ops error.
Built-in DSQs must always be FIFOs.
This makes it very easy for the BPF schedulers to implement proper vtime
based scheduling within each dsq very easy and efficient at a negligible
cost in terms of code complexity and overhead.
scx_simple and scx_example_flatcg are updated to default to weighted
vtime scheduling (the latter within each cgroup). FIFO scheduling can be
selected with -f option.
v4: - As allowing mixing priority queue and FIFO on the same DSQ sometimes
led to unexpected starvations, DSQs now error out if both modes are
used at the same time and the built-in DSQs are no longer allowed to
be priority queues.
- Explicit type struct scx_dsq_node added to contain fields needed to be
linked on DSQs. This will be used to implement stateful iterator.
- Tasks are now always linked on dsq->list whether the DSQ is in FIFO or
PRIQ mode. This confines PRIQ related complexities to the enqueue and
dequeue paths. Other paths only need to look at dsq->list. This will
also ease implementing BPF iterator.
- Print p->scx.dsq_flags in debug dump.
v3: - SCX_TASK_DSQ_ON_PRIQ flag is moved from p->scx.flags into its own
p->scx.dsq_flags. The flag is protected with the dsq lock unlike other
flags in p->scx.flags. This led to flag corruption in some cases.
- Add comments explaining the interaction between using consumption of
p->scx.slice to determine vtime progress and yielding.
v2: - p->scx.dsq_vtime was not initialized on load or across cgroup
migrations leading to some tasks being stalled for extended period of
time depending on how saturated the machine is. Fixed.

sched_ext: Implement core-sched support
The core-sched support is composed of the following parts:
- task_struct->scx.core_sched_at is added. This is a timestamp which can be
used to order tasks. Depending on whether the BPF scheduler implements
custom ordering, it tracks either global FIFO ordering of all tasks or
local-DSQ ordering within the dispatched tasks on a CPU.
- prio_less() is updated to call scx_prio_less() when comparing SCX tasks.
scx_prio_less() calls ops.core_sched_before() if available or uses the
core_sched_at timestamp. For global FIFO ordering, the BPF scheduler
doesn't need to do anything. Otherwise, it should implement
ops.core_sched_before() which reflects the ordering.
- When core-sched is enabled, balance_scx() balances all SMT siblings so
that they all have tasks dispatched if necessary before pick_task_scx() is
called. pick_task_scx() picks between the current task and the first
dispatched task on the local DSQ based on availability and the
core_sched_at timestamps. Note that FIFO ordering is expected among the
already dispatched tasks whether running or on the local DSQ, so this path
always compares core_sched_at instead of calling into
ops.core_sched_before().
qmap_core_sched_before() is added to scx_qmap. It scales the
distances from the heads of the queues to compare the tasks across different
priority queues and seems to behave as expected.
v3: Fixed build error when !CONFIG_SCHED_SMT reported by Andrea Righi.
v2: Sched core added the const qualifiers to prio_less task arguments.
Explicitly drop them for ops.core_sched_before() task arguments. BPF
enforces access control through the verifier, so the qualifier isn't
actually operative and only gets in the way when interacting with
various helpers.

sched_ext: Implement sched_ext_ops.cpu_acquire/release()
Scheduler classes are strictly ordered and when a higher priority class has
tasks to run, the lower priority ones lose access to the CPU. Being able to
monitor and act on these events are necessary for use cases includling
strict core-scheduling and latency management.
This patch adds two operations ops.cpu_acquire() and .cpu_release(). The
former is invoked when a CPU becomes available to the BPF scheduler and the
opposite for the latter. This patch also implements
scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() which can be called from .cpu_release() to trigger
requeueing of all tasks in the local dsq of the CPU so that the tasks can be
reassigned to other available CPUs.
scx_pair is updated to use .cpu_acquire/release() along with
%SCX_KICK_WAIT to make the pair scheduling guarantee strict even when a CPU
is preempted by a higher priority scheduler class.
scx_qmap is updated to use .cpu_acquire/release() to empty the local
dsq of a preempted CPU. A similar approach can be adopted by BPF schedulers
that want to have a tight control over latency.
v4: Use the new SCX_KICK_IDLE to wake up a CPU after re-enqueueing.
v3: Drop the const qualifier from scx_cpu_release_args.task. BPF enforces
access control through the verifier, so the qualifier isn't actually
operative and only gets in the way when interacting with various
helpers.
v2: Add p->scx.kf_mask annotation to allow calling scx_bpf_reenqueue_local()
from ops.cpu_release() nested inside ops.init() and other sleepable
operations.

sched_ext: Track tasks that are subjects of the in-flight SCX operation
When some SCX operations are in flight, it is known that the subject task's rq lock is held throughout which makes it safe to access certain fields of the task - e.g. its current task_group. We want to add SCX kfunc helpers that can make use of this guarantee - e.g. to help determining the currently associated CPU cgroup from the task's current task_group. As it'd be dangerous call such a helper on a task which isn't rq lock protected, the helper should be able to verify the input task and reject accordingly. This patch adds sched_ext_entity.kf_tasks[] that track the tasks which are currently being operated on by a terminal SCX operation. The new SCX_CALL_OP_[2]TASK[_RET]() can be used when invoking SCX operations which take tasks as arguments and the scx_kf_allowed_on_arg_tasks() can be used by kfunc helpers to verify the input task status. Note that as sched_ext_entity.kf_tasks[] can't handle nesting, the tracking is currently only limited to terminal SCX operations. If needed in the future, this restriction can be removed by moving the tracking to the task side with a couple per-task counters. v2: Updated to reflect the addition of SCX_KF_SELECT_CPU.

sched_ext: Implement tickless support
Allow BPF schedulers to indicate tickless operation by setting p->scx.slice
to SCX_SLICE_INF. A CPU whose current task has infinte slice goes into
tickless operation.
scx_central is updated to use tickless operations for all tasks and
instead use a BPF timer to expire slices. This also uses the SCX_ENQ_PREEMPT
and task state tracking added by the previous patches.
Currently, there is no way to pin the timer on the central CPU, so it may
end up on one of the worker CPUs; however, outside of that, the worker CPUs
can go tickless both while running sched_ext tasks and idling.
With schbench running, scx_central shows:
root@test ~# grep ^LOC /proc/interrupts; sleep 10; grep ^LOC /proc/interrupts
LOC: 142024 656 664 449 Local timer interrupts
LOC: 161663 663 665 449 Local timer interrupts
Without it:
root@test ~ [SIGINT]# grep ^LOC /proc/interrupts; sleep 10; grep ^LOC /proc/interrupts
LOC: 188778 3142 3793 3993 Local timer interrupts
LOC: 198993 5314 6323 6438 Local timer interrupts
While scx_central itself is too barebone to be useful as a
production scheduler, a more featureful central scheduler can be built using
the same approach. Google's experience shows that such an approach can have
significant benefits for certain applications such as VM hosting.
v4: Allow operation even if BPF_F_TIMER_CPU_PIN is not available.
v3: Pin the central scheduler's timer on the central_cpu using
BPF_F_TIMER_CPU_PIN.
v2: Convert to BPF inline iterators.

sched_ext: Implement scx_bpf_kick_cpu() and task preemption support
It's often useful to wake up and/or trigger reschedule on other CPUs. This
patch adds scx_bpf_kick_cpu() kfunc helper that BPF scheduler can call to
kick the target CPU into the scheduling path.
As a sched_ext task relinquishes its CPU only after its slice is depleted,
this patch also adds SCX_KICK_PREEMPT and SCX_ENQ_PREEMPT which clears the
slice of the target CPU's current task to guarantee that sched_ext's
scheduling path runs on the CPU.
If SCX_KICK_IDLE is specified, the target CPU is kicked iff the CPU is idle
to guarantee that the target CPU will go through at least one full sched_ext
scheduling cycle after the kicking. This can be used to wake up idle CPUs
without incurring unnecessary overhead if it isn't currently idle.
As a demonstration of how backward compatibility can be supported using BPF
CO-RE, tools/sched_ext/include/scx/compat.bpf.h is added. It provides
__COMPAT_scx_bpf_kick_cpu_IDLE() which uses SCX_KICK_IDLE if available or
becomes a regular kicking otherwise. This allows schedulers to use the new
SCX_KICK_IDLE while maintaining support for older kernels. The plan is to
temporarily use compat helpers to ease API updates and drop them after a few
kernel releases.
v5: - SCX_KICK_IDLE added. Note that this also adds a compat mechanism for
schedulers so that they can support kernels without SCX_KICK_IDLE.
This is useful as a demonstration of how new feature flags can be
added in a backward compatible way.
- kick_cpus_irq_workfn() reimplemented so that it touches the pending
cpumasks only as necessary to reduce kicking overhead on machines with
a lot of CPUs.
- tools/sched_ext/include/scx/compat.bpf.h added.
v4: - Move example scheduler to its own patch.
v3: - Make scx_example_central switch all tasks by default.
- Convert to BPF inline iterators.
v2: - Julia Lawall reported that scx_example_central can overflow the
dispatch buffer and malfunction. As scheduling for other CPUs can't be
handled by the automatic retry mechanism, fix by implementing an
explicit overflow and retry handling.
- Updated to use generic BPF cpumask helpers.

sched_ext: Allow BPF schedulers to disallow specific tasks from joining SCHED_EXT
BPF schedulers might not want to schedule certain tasks - e.g. kernel
threads. This patch adds p->scx.disallow which can be set by BPF schedulers
in such cases. The field can be changed anytime and setting it in
ops.prep_enable() guarantees that the task can never be scheduled by
sched_ext.
scx_qmap is updated with the -d option to disallow a specific PID:
# echo $$

sched_ext: Implement runnable task stall watchdog
The most common and critical way that a BPF scheduler can misbehave is by
failing to run runnable tasks for too long. This patch implements a
watchdog.
* All tasks record when they become runnable.
* A watchdog work periodically scans all runnable tasks. If any task has
stayed runnable for too long, the BPF scheduler is aborted.
* scheduler_tick() monitors whether the watchdog itself is stuck. If so, the
BPF scheduler is aborted.
Because the watchdog only scans the tasks which are currently runnable and
usually very infrequently, the overhead should be negligible.
scx_qmap is updated so that it can be told to stall user and/or
kernel tasks.
A detected task stall looks like the following:
sched_ext: BPF scheduler "qmap" errored, disabling
sched_ext: runnable task stall (dbus-daemon[953] failed to run for 6.478s)

x86_64_start_kernel+0x104/0x109
secondary_startup_64_no_verify+0xce/0xdb
Note that this patch exposes scx_ops_error[_type]() in kernel/sched/ext.h to
inline scx_notify_sched_tick().
v4: - While disabling, cancel_delayed_work_sync(&scx_watchdog_work) was
being called before forward progress was guaranteed and thus could
lead to system lockup. Relocated.
- While enabling, it was comparing msecs against jiffies without
conversion leading to spurious load failures on lower HZ kernels.
Fixed.
- runnable list management is now used by core bypass logic and moved to
the patch implementing sched_ext core.
v3: - bpf_scx_init_member() was incorrectly comparing ops->timeout_ms
against SCX_WATCHDOG_MAX_TIMEOUT which is in jiffies without
conversion leading to spurious load failures in lower HZ kernels.
Fixed.
v2: - Julia Lawall noticed that the watchdog code was mixing msecs and
jiffies. Fix by using jiffies for everything.

sched_ext: Implement BPF extensible scheduler class
Implement a new scheduler class sched_ext (SCX), which allows scheduling
policies to be implemented as BPF programs to achieve the following:
1. Ease of experimentation and exploration: Enabling rapid iteration of new
scheduling policies.
2. Customization: Building application-specific schedulers which implement
policies that are not applicable to general-purpose schedulers.
3. Rapid scheduler deployments: Non-disruptive swap outs of scheduling
policies in production environments.
sched_ext leverages BPF’s struct_ops feature to define a structure which
exports function callbacks and flags to BPF programs that wish to implement
scheduling policies. The struct_ops structure exported by sched_ext is
struct sched_ext_ops, and is conceptually similar to struct sched_class. The
role of sched_ext is to map the complex sched_class callbacks to the more
simple and ergonomic struct sched_ext_ops callbacks.
For more detailed discussion on the motivations and overview, please refer
to the cover letter.
Later patches will also add several example schedulers and documentation.
This patch implements the minimum core framework to enable implementation of
BPF schedulers. Subsequent patches will gradually add functionalities
including safety guarantee mechanisms, nohz and cgroup support.
include/linux/sched/ext.h defines struct sched_ext_ops. With the comment on
top, each operation should be self-explanatory. The followings are worth
noting:
- Both "sched_ext" and its shorthand "scx" are used. If the identifier
already has "sched" in it, "ext" is used; otherwise, "scx".
- In sched_ext_ops, only .name is mandatory. Every operation is optional and
if omitted a simple but functional default behavior is provided.
- A new policy constant SCHED_EXT is added and a task can select sched_ext
by invoking sched_setscheduler(2) with the new policy constant. However,
if the BPF scheduler is not loaded, SCHED_EXT is the same as SCHED_NORMAL
and the task is scheduled by CFS. When the BPF scheduler is loaded, all
tasks which have the SCHED_EXT policy are switched to sched_ext.
- To bridge the workflow imbalance between the scheduler core and
sched_ext_ops callbacks, sched_ext uses simple FIFOs called dispatch
queues (dsq's). By default, there is one global dsq (SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL), and
one local per-CPU dsq (SCX_DSQ_LOCAL). SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL is provided for
convenience and need not be used by a scheduler that doesn't require it.
SCX_DSQ_LOCAL is the per-CPU FIFO that sched_ext pulls from when putting
the next task on the CPU. The BPF scheduler can manage an arbitrary number
of dsq's using scx_bpf_create_dsq() and scx_bpf_destroy_dsq().
- sched_ext guarantees system integrity no matter what the BPF scheduler
does. To enable this, each task's ownership is tracked through
p->scx.ops_state and all tasks are put on scx_tasks list. The disable path
can always recover and revert all tasks back to CFS. See p->scx.ops_state
and scx_tasks.
- A task is not tied to its rq while enqueued. This decouples CPU selection
from queueing and allows sharing a scheduling queue across an arbitrary
subset of CPUs. This adds some complexities as a task may need to be
bounced between rq's right before it starts executing. See
dispatch_to_local_dsq() and move_task_to_local_dsq().
- One complication that arises from the above weak association between task
and rq is that synchronizing with dequeue() gets complicated as dequeue()
may happen anytime while the task is enqueued and the dispatch path might
need to release the rq lock to transfer the task. Solving this requires a
bit of complexity. See the logic around p->scx.sticky_cpu and
p->scx.ops_qseq.
- Both enable and disable paths are a bit complicated. The enable path
switches all tasks without blocking to avoid issues which can arise from
partially switched states (e.g. the switching task itself being starved).
The disable path can't trust the BPF scheduler at all, so it also has to
guarantee forward progress without blocking. See scx_ops_enable() and
scx_ops_disable_workfn().
- When sched_ext is disabled, static_branches are used to shut down the
entry points from hot paths.
v7: - scx_ops_bypass() was incorrectly and unnecessarily trying to grab
scx_ops_enable_mutex which can lead to deadlocks in the disable path.
Fixed.
- Fixed TASK_DEAD handling bug in scx_ops_enable() path which could lead
to use-after-free.
- Consolidated per-cpu variable usages and other cleanups.
v6: - SCX_NR_ONLINE_OPS replaced with SCX_OPI_*_BEGIN/END so that multiple
groups can be expressed. Later CPU hotplug operations are put into
their own group.
- SCX_OPS_DISABLING state is replaced with the new bypass mechanism
which allows temporarily putting the system into simple FIFO
scheduling mode bypassing the BPF scheduler. In addition to the shut
down path, this will also be used to isolate the BPF scheduler across
PM events. Enabling and disabling the bypass mode requires iterating
all runnable tasks. rq->scx.runnable_list addition is moved from the
later watchdog patch.
- ops.prep_enable() is replaced with ops.init_task() and
ops.enable/disable() are now called whenever the task enters and
leaves sched_ext instead of when the task becomes schedulable on
sched_ext and stops being so. A new operation - ops.exit_task() - is
called when the task stops being schedulable on sched_ext.
- scx_bpf_dispatch() can now be called from ops.select_cpu() too. This
removes the need for communicating local dispatch decision made by
ops.select_cpu() to ops.enqueue() via per-task storage.
SCX_KF_SELECT_CPU is added to support the change.
- SCX_TASK_ENQ_LOCAL which told the BPF scheudler that
scx_select_cpu_dfl() wants the task to be dispatched to the local DSQ
was removed. Instead, scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl() now dispatches directly
if it finds a suitable idle CPU. If such behavior is not desired,
users can use scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl() which returns the verdict in a
bool out param.
- scx_select_cpu_dfl() was mishandling WAKE_SYNC and could end up
queueing many tasks on a local DSQ which makes tasks to execute in
order while other CPUs stay idle which made some hackbench numbers
really bad. Fixed.
- The current state of sched_ext can now be monitored through files
under /sys/sched_ext instead of /sys/kernel/debug/sched/ext. This is
to enable monitoring on kernels which don't enable debugfs.
- sched_ext wasn't telling BPF that ops.dispatch()'s @prev argument may
be NULL and a BPF scheduler which derefs the pointer without checking
could crash the kernel. Tell BPF. This is currently a bit ugly. A
better way to annotate this is expected in the future.
- scx_exit_info updated to carry pointers to message buffers instead of
embedding them directly. This decouples buffer sizes from API so that
they can be changed without breaking compatibility.
- exit_code added to scx_exit_info. This is used to indicate different
exit conditions on non-error exits and will be used to handle e.g. CPU
hotplugs.
- The patch "sched_ext: Allow BPF schedulers to switch all eligible
tasks into sched_ext" is folded in and the interface is changed so
that partial switching is indicated with a new ops flag
%SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL. This makes scx_bpf_switch_all() unnecessasry
and in turn SCX_KF_INIT. ops.init() is now called with
SCX_KF_SLEEPABLE.
- Code reorganized so that only the parts necessary to integrate with
the rest of the kernel are in the header files.
- Changes to reflect the BPF and other kernel changes including the
addition of bpf_sched_ext_ops.cfi_stubs.
v5: - To accommodate 32bit configs, p->scx.ops_state is now atomic_long_t
instead of atomic64_t and scx_dsp_buf_ent.qseq which uses
load_acquire/store_release is now unsigned long instead of u64.
- Fix the bug where bpf_scx_btf_struct_access() was allowing write
access to arbitrary fields.
- Distinguish kfuncs which can be called from any sched_ext ops and from
anywhere. e.g. scx_bpf_pick_idle_cpu() can now be called only from
sched_ext ops.
- Rename "type" to "kind" in scx_exit_info to make it easier to use on
languages in which "type" is a reserved keyword.

vhost_task: Handle SIGKILL by flushing work and exiting
Instead of lingering until the device is closed, this has us handle SIGKILL by: 1. marking the worker as killed so we no longer try to use it with new virtqueues and new flush operations. 2. setting the virtqueue to worker mapping so no new works are queued. 3. running all the exiting works.

mm: introduce arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags()
When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard
gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and
VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap()
needs to consider two things:
1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard
gaps.
2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings
are not in *its* guard gaps.
The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care
around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap()
with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed,
mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the
mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the
adjacent VMA.
In order to take the start gap into account, the maple tree search needs
to know the size of start gap the new mapping will need. The call chain
from do_mmap() to the actual maple tree search looks like this:
do_mmap(size, vm_flags, map_flags, ..)
mm/mmap.c:get_unmapped_area(size, map_flags, ...)
arch_get_unmapped_area(size, map_flags, ...)
vm_unmapped_area(struct vm_unmapped_area_info)
One option would be to add another MAP_ flag to mean a one page start gap
(as is for shadow stack), but this consumes a flag unnecessarily. Another
option could be to simply increase the size passed in do_mmap() by the
start gap size, and adjust after the fact, but this will interfere with
the alignment requirements passed in struct vm_unmapped_area_info, and
unknown to mmap.c. Instead, introduce variants of
arch_get_unmapped_area/_topdown() that take vm_flags. In future changes,
these variants can be used in mmap.c:get_unmapped_area() to allow the
vm_flags to be passed through to vm_unmapped_area(), while preserving the
normal arch_get_unmapped_area/_topdown() for the existing callers.

mm: switch mm->get_unmapped_area() to a flag
The mm_struct contains a function pointer *get_unmapped_area(), which is set to either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() during the initialization of the mm. Since the function pointer only ever points to two functions that are named the same across all arch's, a function pointer is not really required. In addition future changes will want to add versions of the functions that take additional arguments. So to save a pointers worth of bytes in mm_struct, and prevent adding additional function pointers to mm_struct in future changes, remove it and keep the information about which get_unmapped_area() to use in a flag. Add the new flag to MMF_INIT_MASK so it doesn't get clobbered on fork by mmf_init_flags(). Most MM flags get clobbered on fork. In the pre-existing behavior mm->get_unmapped_area() would get copied to the new mm in dup_mm(), so not clobbering the flag preserves the existing behavior around inheriting the topdown-ness. Introduce a helper, mm_get_unmapped_area(), to easily convert code that refers to the old function pointer to instead select and call either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() based on the flag. Then drop the mm->get_unmapped_area() function pointer. Leave the get_unmapped_area() pointer in struct file_operations alone. The main purpose of this change is to reorganize in preparation for future changes, but it also converts the calls of mm->get_unmapped_area() from indirect branches into a direct ones. The stress-ng bigheap benchmark calls realloc a lot, which calls through get_unmapped_area() in the kernel. On x86, the change yielded a ~1% improvement there on a retpoline config. In testing a few x86 configs, removing the pointer unfortunately didn't result in any actual size reductions in the compiled layout of mm_struct. But depending on compiler or arch alignment requirements, the change could shrink the size of mm_struct.

sched/cpufreq: Rename arch_update_thermal_pressure() => arch_update_hw_pressure()
Now that cpufreq provides a pressure value to the scheduler, rename arch_update_thermal_pressure into HW pressure to reflect that it returns a pressure applied by HW (i.e. with a high frequency change) and not always related to thermal mitigation but also generated by max current limitation as an example. Such high frequency signal needs filtering to be smoothed and provide an value that reflects the average available capacity into the scheduler time scale.

- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm:
zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged
as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy
wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather
than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments
appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process
has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations.
The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan
Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series
"Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults.
He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test",
Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in
our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data
caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic
improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain
userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements
in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x
improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of
large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages() to
an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which are
configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

sched/balancing: Rename load_balance() => sched_balance_rq()
Standardize scheduler load-balancing function names on the sched_balance_() prefix. Also load_balance() has become somewhat of a misnomer: historically it was the first and primary load-balancing function that was called, but with the introduction of sched domains, it's become a lower layer function that balances runqueues. Rename it to sched_balance_rq() accordingly.

sched/balancing: Change 'enum cpu_idle_type' to have more natural definitions
The cpu_idle_type enum has the confusingly inverted property that 'not idle' is 1, and 'idle' is '0'. This resulted in a number of unnecessary complications in the code. Reverse the order, remove the CPU_NOT_IDLE type, and convert all code to a natural boolean form. It's much more readable: - enum cpu_idle_type idle = this_rq->idle_balance ? - CPU_IDLE : CPU_NOT_IDLE; - + enum cpu_idle_type idle = this_rq->idle_balance; -------------------------------- - if (env->idle == CPU_NOT_IDLE || !busiest->sum_nr_running) + if (!env->idle || !busiest->sum_nr_running) -------------------------------- And gets rid of the double negation in these usages: - if (env->idle != CPU_NOT_IDLE && env->src_rq->nr_running <= 1) + if (env->idle && env->src_rq->nr_running <= 1) Furthermore, this makes code much more obvious where there's differentiation between CPU_IDLE and CPU_NEWLY_IDLE.

sched: Add a new function to compare if two cpus have the same capacity
The new helper function is needed to help blk-mq check if it needs to dispatch the softirq on another CPU to match the performance level the IO requester is running at. This is important on HMP systems where not all CPUs have the same compute capacity.

mm: document memalloc_noreclaim_save() and memalloc_pin_save()
The memalloc_noreclaim_save() function currently has no documentation comment, so the implications of its usage are not obvious. Namely that it not only prevents entering reclaim (as the name suggests), but also allows using all memory reserves and thus should be only used in contexts that are allocating memory to free memory. This may lead to new improper usages being added. Thus add a documenting comment, based on the description of __GFP_MEMALLOC. While at it, also document memalloc_pin_save() so that all the memalloc_ scopes are documented. For those already documented, add missing Return: descriptions, and mark Context: description per kernel-docs style guide. In the comments describing the relevant PF_MEMALLOC flags, refer to their scope setting functions.

header cleanups for 6.8
The goal is to get sched.h down to a type only header, so the main thing happening in this patchset is splitting out various _types.h headers and dependency fixups, as well as moving some things out of sched.h to better locations. This is prep work for the memory allocation profiling patchset which adds new sched.h interdepencencies. Testing - it's been in -next, and fixes from pretty much all architectures have percolated in - nothing major. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEKnAFLkS8Qha+jvQrE6szbY3KbnYFAmWfBwwACgkQE6szbY3K bnZPwBAAmuRojXaeWxi01IPIOehSGDe68vw44PR9glEMZvxdnZuPOdvE4/+245/L bRKU2WBCjBUokUbV9msIShwRkFTZAmEMPNfPAAsFMA+VXeDYHKB+ZRdwTggNAQ+I SG6fZgh5m0HsewCDxU8oqVHkjVq4fXn0cy+aL6xLEd9gu67GoBzX2pDieS2Kvy6j jnyoKTxFwb+LTQgph0P4EIpq5I2umAsdLwdSR8EJ+8e9NiNvMo1pI00Lx/ntAnFZ JftWUJcMy3TQ5u1GkyfQN9y/yThX1bZK5GvmHS9SJ2Dkacaus5d+xaKCHtRuFS1I 7C6b8PsNgRczUMumBXus44HdlNfNs1yU3lvVxFvBIPE1qC9pYRHrkWIXXIocXLLC oxTEJ6B2G3BQZVQgLIA4fOaxMVhmvKffi/aEZLi9vN9VVosd1a6XNKI6KbyRnXFp GSs9qDqszhn5I3GYNlDNQTc/8UsRlhPFgS6nS0By6QnvxtGi9QkU2tBRBsXvqwCy cLoCYIhc2tvugHvld70dz26umiJ4rnmxGlobStNoigDvIKAIUt1UmIdr1so8P8eH xehnL9ZcOX6xnANDL0AqMFFHV6I58CJynhFdUoXfVQf/DWLGX48mpi9LVNsYBzsI CAwVOAQ0UjGrpdWmJ9ueY/ABYqg9vRjzaDEXQ+MhAYO55CLaVsg= =3tyT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'header_cleanup-2024-01-10' of https://evilpiepirate.org/git/bcachefs Pull header cleanups from Kent Overstreet: "The goal is to get sched.h down to a type only header, so the main thing happening in this patchset is splitting out various _types.h headers and dependency fixups, as well as moving some things out of sched.h to better locations.

cgroup: Changes for v6.8
- Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies. While cgroup1 is mostly in maintenance mode, this addition is very small while having an outsized usefulness for users who are still on cgroup1. Yafang also optimized root cgroup list access by making it RCU protected in the process. - Waiman Long optimized rstat operation leading to substantially lower and more consistent lock hold time while flushing the hierarchical statistics. As the lock can be acquired briefly in various hot paths, this reduction has cascading benefits. - Waiman also improved the quality of isolation for cpuset's isolated partitions. CPUs which are allocated to isolated partitions are now excluded from running unbound work items and cpu_is_isolated() test which is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference now includes cpuset isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is eventually reaching parity with the isolation level provided by the `isolcpus` boot param but in a dynamic manner. This involved a couple workqueue patches which were applied directly to cgroup/for-6.8 rather than ping-ponged through the wq tree. This was because the wq code change was small and the area is usually very static and unlikely to cause conflicts. However, luck had it that there was a wq bug fix in the area during the 6.7 cycle which caused a conflict. The conflict is contextual but can be a bit confusing to resolve, so there is one merge from wq/for-6.7-fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIQEABYKACwWIQTfIjM1kS57o3GsC/uxYfJx3gVYGQUCZYnuJg4cdGpAa2VybmVs Lm9yZwAKCRCxYfJx3gVYGQ5kAP9nMMWqi+R1HeG7+hWROTVjQZ0OM9KRcpZ1TmjF FNbkJgEAzt+sPnoWwYDTSI7pkNeZ/IM7x1qkkKGvENNtUXrz0Ac= =PyYN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'cgroup-for-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies.

Scheduler changes for v6.8:
- Energy scheduling:
- Consolidate how the max compute capacity is
used in the scheduler and how we calculate
the frequency for a level of utilization.
- Rework interface between the scheduler and
the schedutil governor
- Simplify the util_est logic
- Deadline scheduler:
- Work more towards reducing SCHED_DEADLINE
starvation of low priority tasks (e.g., SCHED_OTHER)
tasks when higher priority tasks monopolize CPU
cycles, via the introduction of 'deadline servers'
(nested/2-level scheduling).
"Fair servers" to make use of this facility are
not introduced yet.
- EEVDF:
- Introduce O(1) fastpath for EEVDF task selection
- NUMA balancing:
- Tune the NUMA-balancing vma scanning logic some more,
to better distribute the probability
of a particular vma getting scanned.
- Plus misc fixes, cleanups and updates.

sched/topology: Add a new arch_scale_freq_ref() method
Create a new method to get a unique and fixed max frequency. Currently
cpuinfo.max_freq or the highest (or last) state of performance domain are
used as the max frequency when computing the frequency for a level of
utilization, but:
- cpuinfo_max_freq can change at runtime. boost is one example of
such change.
- cpuinfo.max_freq and last item of the PD can be different leading to
different results between cpufreq and energy model.
We need to save the reference frequency that has been used when computing
the CPUs capacity and use this fixed and coherent value to convert between
frequency and CPU's capacity.
In fact, we already save the frequency that has been used when computing
the capacity of each CPU. We extend the precision to save kHz instead of
MHz currently and we modify the type to be aligned with other variables
used when converting frequency to capacity and the other way.

kernel/signal.c: simplify force_sig_info_to_task(), kill recalc_sigpending_and_wake()
The purpose of recalc_sigpending_and_wake() is not clear, it looks "obviously unneeded" because we are going to send the signal which can't be blocked or ignored. Add the comment to explain why we can't rely on send_signal_locked() and make this logic more simple/explicit. recalc_sigpending_and_wake() has no other users, it can die. In fact I think we don't even need signal_wake_up(), the target task must be either current or a TASK_TRACED child, otherwise the usage of siglock is not safe. But this needs another change.

cgroup/cpuset: Include isolated cpuset CPUs in cpu_is_isolated() check
Currently, the cpu_is_isolated() function checks only the statically isolated CPUs specified via the "isolcpus" and "nohz_full" kernel command line options. This function is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference with isolated CPUs by not doing stat flushing or scheduling works on those CPUs. Workloads running on isolated CPUs within isolated cpuset partitions should receive the same treatment to reduce unnecessary interference. This patch introduces a new cpuset_cpu_is_isolated() function to be called by cpu_is_isolated() so that the set of dynamically created cpuset isolated CPUs will be included in the check. Assuming that testing a bit in a cpumask is atomic, no synchronization primitive is currently used to synchronize access to the cpuset's isolated_cpus mask.

The lengthier patch series are
- "kdump: use generic functions to simplify crashkernel reservation in
arch", from Baoquan He. This is mainly cleanups and consolidation of
the "crashkernel=" kernel parameter handling.
- After much discussion, David Laight's "minmax: Relax type checks in
min() and max()" is here. Hopefully reduces some typecasting and the
use of min_t() and max_t().
- A group of patches from Oleg Nesterov which clean up and slightly fix

Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which are
included in this merge do the following:
- Kemeng Shi has contributed some compation maintenance work in the
series "Fixes and cleanups to compaction".
- Joel Fernandes has a patchset ("Optimize mremap during mutual
alignment within PMD") which fixes an obscure issue with mremap()'s
pagetable handling during a subsequent exec(), based upon an
implementation which Linus suggested.
- More DAMON/DAMOS maintenance and feature work from SeongJae Park i the
following patch series:
mm/damon: misc fixups for documents, comments and its tracepoint
mm/damon: add a tracepoint for damos apply target regions
mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access rate
mm/damon: implement DAMOS apply intervals
mm/damon/core-test: Fix memory leaks in core-test
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: Do DAMOS tried regions update for only one apply interval
- In the series "Do not try to access unaccepted memory" Adrian Hunter
provides some fixups for the recently-added "unaccepted memory' feature.
To increase the feature's checking coverage. "Plug a few gaps where
RAM is exposed without checking if it is unaccepted memory".
- In the series "cleanups for lockless slab shrink" Qi Zheng has done
some maintenance work which is preparation for the lockless slab
shrinking code.
- Qi Zheng has redone the earlier (and reverted) attempt to make slab
shrinking lockless in the series "use refcount+RCU method to implement
lockless slab shrink".

in the series "Anon rmap cleanups".
- Kefeng Wang does more folio conversions and some maintenance work in
the migration code. Series "mm: migrate: more folio conversion and
unification".

manipulation" Zi Yan has fixed a potential issue with the direct
manipulation of hugetlb page frames.
- In the series "mm: hugetlb: Skip initialization of gigantic tail
struct pages if freed by HVO" has improved our handling of gigantic
pages in the hugetlb vmmemmep optimizaton code. This provides
significant boot time improvements when significant amounts of gigantic
pages are in use.

functions to use a folio" which does what it says.
- In the series "mm/ksm: add fork-exec support for prctl" Stefan Roesch
makes is possible for a process to propagate KSM treatment across
exec().

distances. This is used to permit the dax/kmem driver to use "high
bandwidth memory" in addition to Optane Data Center Persistent Memory
Modules (DCPMM). The series is named "memory tiering: calculate
abstract distance based on ACPI HMAT"
- In the series "Smart scanning mode for KSM" Stefan Roesch has
optimized KSM by teaching it to retain and use some historical
information from previous scans.

mm: kmem: scoped objcg protection
Switch to a scope-based protection of the objcg pointer on slab/kmem allocation paths. Instead of using the get_() semantics in the pre-allocation hook and put the reference afterwards, let's rely on the fact that objcg is pinned by the scope. It's possible because: 1) if the objcg is received from the current task struct, the task is keeping a reference to the objcg. 2) if the objcg is received from an active memcg (remote charging), the memcg is pinned by the scope and has a reference to the corresponding objcg.

Add cpus_share_resources() API. This is the preparation for the optimization of select_idle_cpu() on platforms with cluster scheduler level. On a machine with clusters cpus_share_resources() will test whether two cpus are within the same cluster. On a non-cluster machine it will behaves the same as cpus_share_cache().

mm/ksm: support fork/exec for prctl
Patch series "mm/ksm: add fork-exec support for prctl", v4.
A process can enable KSM with the prctl system call. When the process is
forked the KSM flag is inherited by the child process. However if the
process is executing an exec system call directly after the fork, the KSM
setting is cleared. This patch series addresses this problem.
1) Change the mask in coredump.h for execing a new process
2) Add a new test case in ksm_functional_tests
This patch (of 2):
Today we have two ways to enable KSM:
1) madvise system call
This allows to enable KSM for a memory region for a long time.
2) prctl system call
This is a recent addition to enable KSM for the complete process.
In addition when a process is forked, the KSM setting is inherited.
This change only affects the second case.
One of the use cases for (2) was to support the ability to enable
KSM for cgroups. This allows systemd to enable KSM for the seed
process. By enabling it in the seed process all child processes inherit
the setting.
This works correctly when the process is forked. However it doesn't
support fork/exec workflow.
From the previous cover letter:
....
Use case 3:
With the madvise call sharing opportunities are only enabled for the
current process: it is a workload-local decision. A considerable number
of sharing opportunities may exist across multiple workloads or jobs
(if they are part of the same security domain). Only a higler level
entity like a job scheduler or container can know for certain if its
running one or more instances of a job. That job scheduler however
doesn't have the necessary internal workload knowledge to make targeted
madvise calls.
....
In addition it can also be a bit surprising that fork keeps the KSM
setting and fork/exec does not.

sched/numa: Complete scanning of inactive VMAs when there is no alternative
VMAs are skipped if there is no recent fault activity but this represents
a chicken-and-egg problem as there may be no fault activity if the PTEs
are never updated to trap NUMA hints. There is an indirect reliance on
scanning to be forced early in the lifetime of a task but this may fail
to detect changes in phase behaviour. Force inactive VMAs to be scanned
when all other eligible VMAs have been updated within the same scan
sequence.
Test results in general look good with some changes in performance, both
negative and positive, depending on whether the additional scanning and
faulting was beneficial or not to the workload. The autonuma benchmark
workload NUMA01_THREADLOCAL was picked for closer examination. The workload
creates two processes with numerous threads and thread-local storage that
is zero-filled in a loop. It exercises the corner case where unrelated
threads may skip VMAs that are thread-local to another thread and still
has some VMAs that inactive while the workload executes.
The VMA skipping activity frequency with and without the patch:
6.6.0-rc2-sched-numabtrace-v1
=============================
649 reason=scan_delay
9,094 reason=unsuitable
48,915 reason=shared_ro
143,919 reason=inaccessible
193,050 reason=pid_inactive
6.6.0-rc2-sched-numabselective-v1
=============================
146 reason=seq_completed
622 reason=ignore_pid_inactive
624 reason=scan_delay
6,570 reason=unsuitable
16,101 reason=shared_ro
27,608 reason=inaccessible
41,939 reason=pid_inactive
Note that with the patch applied, the PID activity is ignored
(ignore_pid_inactive) to ensure a VMA with some activity is completely
scanned. In addition, a small number of VMAs are scanned when no other
eligible VMA is available during a single scan window (seq_completed).
The number of times a VMA is skipped due to no PID activity from the
scanning task (pid_inactive) drops dramatically. It is expected that
this will increase the number of PTEs updated for NUMA hinting faults
as well as hinting faults but these represent PTEs that would otherwise
have been missed. The tradeoff is scan+fault overhead versus improving
locality due to migration.
On a 2-socket Cascade Lake test machine, the time to complete the
workload is as follows;
6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2
sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1
Min elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 174.22 ( 0.00%) 117.64 ( 32.48%)
Amean elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 175.68 ( 0.00%) 123.34 * 29.79%*
Stddev elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 1.20 ( 0.00%) 4.06 (-238.20%)
CoeffVar elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 0.68 ( 0.00%) 3.29 (-381.70%)
Max elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 177.18 ( 0.00%) 128.03 ( 27.74%)
The time to complete the workload is reduced by almost 30%:
6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2
sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1 /
Duration User 91201.80 63506.64
Duration System 2015.53 1819.78
Duration Elapsed 1234.77 868.37
In this specific case, system CPU time was not increased but it's not
universally true.
From vmstat, the NUMA scanning and fault activity is as follows;
6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2
sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1
Ops NUMA base-page range updates 64272.00 26374386.00
Ops NUMA PTE updates 36624.00 55538.00
Ops NUMA PMD updates 54.00 51404.00
Ops NUMA hint faults 15504.00 75786.00
Ops NUMA hint local faults % 14860.00 56763.00
Ops NUMA hint local percent 95.85 74.90
Ops NUMA pages migrated 1629.00 6469222.00
Both the number of PTE updates and hint faults is dramatically
increased. While this is superficially unfortunate, it represents
ranges that were simply skipped without the patch. As a result
of the scanning and hinting faults, many more pages were also
migrated but as the time to completion is reduced, the overhead
is offset by the gain.

sched/numa: Complete scanning of partial VMAs regardless of PID activity
NUMA Balancing skips VMAs when the current task has not trapped a NUMA fault within the VMA. If the VMA is skipped then mm->numa_scan_offset advances and a task that is trapping faults within the VMA may never fully update PTEs within the VMA. Force tasks to update PTEs for partially scanned PTEs. The VMA will be tagged for NUMA hints by some task but this removes some of the benefit of tracking PID activity within a VMA. A follow-on patch will mitigate this problem. The test cases and machines evaluated did not trigger the corner case so the performance results are neutral with only small changes within the noise from normal test-to-test variance. However, the next patch makes the corner case easier to trigger.

mm: add a NO_INHERIT flag to the PR_SET_MDWE prctl
This extends the current PR_SET_MDWE prctl arg with a bit to indicate that the process doesn't want MDWE protection to propagate to children. To implement this no-inherit mode, the tag in current->mm->flags must be absent from MMF_INIT_MASK. This means that the encoding for "MDWE but without inherit" is different in the prctl than in the mm flags. This leads to a bit of bit-mangling in the prctl implementation.

sched: Provide rt_mutex specific scheduler helpers
With PREEMPT_RT there is a rt_mutex recursion problem where
sched_submit_work() can use an rtlock (aka spinlock_t). More
specifically what happens is:
mutex_lock() /* really rt_mutex */
...
__rt_mutex_slowlock_locked()
task_blocks_on_rt_mutex()
// enqueue current task as waiter
// do PI chain walk
rt_mutex_slowlock_block()
schedule()
sched_submit_work()
...
spin_lock() /* really rtlock */
...
__rt_mutex_slowlock_locked()
task_blocks_on_rt_mutex()
// enqueue current task as waiter *AGAIN*
// *CONFUSION*
Fix this by making rt_mutex do the sched_submit_work() early, before
it enqueues itself as a waiter -- before it even knows *if* it will
wait.

document while_each_thread(), change first_tid() to use for_each_thread()
Add the comment to explain that while_each_thread(g,t) is not rcu-safe unless g is stable (e.g. current). Even if g is a group leader and thus can't exit before t, t or another sub-thread can exec and remove g from the thread_group list. The only lockless user of while_each_thread() is first_tid() and it is fine in that it can't loop forever, yet for_each_thread() looks better and I am going to change while_each_thread/next_thread.

kill do_each_thread()
Eric has pointed out that we still have 3 users of do_each_thread().
Change them to use for_each_process_thread() and kill this helper.
There is a subtle change, after do_each_thread/while_each_thread g == t ==
&init_task, while after for_each_process_thread() they both point to
nowhere, but this doesn't matter.
> Why is for_each_process_thread() better than do_each_thread()?
Say, for_each_process_thread() is rcu safe, do_each_thread() is not.
And certainly
for_each_process_thread(p, t) {
do_something(p, t);
}
looks better than
do_each_thread(p, t) {
do_something(p, t);
} while_each_thread(p, t);
And again, there are only 3 users of this awkward helper left. It should
have been killed years ago and in fact I thought it had already been
killed. It uses while_each_thread() which needs some changes.

sched: avoid false lockdep splat in put_task_struct()
In put_task_struct(), a spin_lock is indirectly acquired under the kernel stock. When running the kernel in real-time (RT) configuration, the operation is dispatched to a preemptible context call to ensure guaranteed preemption. However, if PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING is enabled and __put_task_struct() is called while holding a raw_spinlock, lockdep incorrectly reports an "Invalid lock context" in the stock kernel. This false splat occurs because lockdep is unaware of the different route taken under RT. To address this issue, override the inner wait type to prevent the false lockdep splat.

call_rcu(). A more natural approach would use a workqueue, but since
in PREEMPT_RT, we can't allocate dynamic memory from atomic context,
the code would become more complex because we would need to put the
work_struct instance in the task_struct and initialize it when we
allocate a new task_struct.
The issue is reproducible with stress-ng:
while true; do
stress-ng --sched deadline --sched-period 1000000000 \
--sched-runtime 800000000 --sched-deadline \
1000000000 --mmapfork 23 -t 20
