Introduce CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING which provides definitions to easily
instrument memory allocators. It registers an "alloc_tags" codetag type
with /proc/allocinfo interface to output allocation tag information when
the feature is enabled.
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is provided for debugging the memory
allocation profiling instrumentation.
Memory allocation profiling can be enabled or disabled at runtime using
/proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling sysctl when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=n.
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT enables memory allocation
profiling by default.

If a misfit task is affined to a subset of the possible CPUs, we need to
verify that one of these CPUs can fit it. Otherwise the load balancer
code will continuously trigger needlessly leading the balance_interval
to increase in return and eventually end up with a situation where real
imbalances take a long time to address because of this impossible
imbalance situation.
This can happen in Android world where it's common for background tasks
to be restricted to little cores.
Similarly if we can't fit the biggest core, triggering misfit is
pointless as it is the best we can ever get on this system.
To be able to detect that; we use asym_cap_list to iterate through
capacities in the system to see if the task is able to run at a higher
capacity level based on its p->cpus_ptr. We do that when the affinity
change, a fair task is forked, or when a task switched to fair policy.
We store the max_allowed_capacity in task_struct to allow for cheap
comparison in the fast path.
Improve check_misfit_status() function by removing redundant checks.
misfit_task_load will be 0 if the task can't move to a bigger CPU. And
nohz_balancer_kick() already checks for cpu_check_capacity() before
calling check_misfit_status().
Test:
=====
Add
trace_printk("balance_interval = %lu\n", interval)
in get_sd_balance_interval().
run
if [ "$MASK" != "0" ]; then
adb shell "taskset -a $MASK cat /dev/zero > /dev/null"
fi
sleep 10
// parse ftrace buffer counting the occurrence of each valaue
Where MASK is either:
* 0: no busy task running
* 1: busy task is pinned to 1 cpu; handled today to not cause
misfit
* f: busy task pinned to little cores, simulates busy background
task, demonstrates the problem to be fixed
Results:

Holding a mutex across synchronize_rcu_tasks() and acquiring
that same mutex in code called from do_exit() after its call to
exit_tasks_rcu_start() but before its call to exit_tasks_rcu_stop()
results in deadlock. This is by design, because tasks that are far
enough into do_exit() are no longer present on the tasks list, making
it a bit difficult for RCU Tasks to find them, let alone wait on them
to do a voluntary context switch. However, such deadlocks are becoming
more frequent. In addition, lockdep currently does not detect such
deadlocks and they can be difficult to reproduce.
In addition, if a task voluntarily context switches during that time
(for example, if it blocks acquiring a mutex), then this task is in an
RCU Tasks quiescent state. And with some adjustments, RCU Tasks could
just as well take advantage of that fact.
This commit therefore adds the data structures that will be needed
to rely on these quiescent states and to eliminate these deadlocks.

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.

When a system has multiple NUMA nodes and it becomes bandwidth hungry,
using the current MPOL_INTERLEAVE could be an wise option.
However, if those NUMA nodes consist of different types of memory such as
socket-attached DRAM and CXL/PCIe attached DRAM, the round-robin based
interleave policy does not optimally distribute data to make use of their
different bandwidth characteristics.
Instead, interleave is more effective when the allocation policy follows
each NUMA nodes' bandwidth weight rather than a simple 1:1 distribution.
This patch introduces a new memory policy, MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE,
enabling weighted interleave between NUMA nodes. Weighted interleave
allows for proportional distribution of memory across multiple numa nodes,
preferably apportioned to match the bandwidth of each node.
For example, if a system has 1 CPU node (0), and 2 memory nodes (0,1),
with bandwidth of (100GB/s, 50GB/s) respectively, the appropriate weight
distribution is (2:1).
Weights for each node can be assigned via the new sysfs extension:
/sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/weighted_interleave/
For now, the default value of all nodes will be `1`, which matches the
behavior of standard 1:1 round-robin interleave. An extension will be
added in the future to allow default values to be registered at kernel and
device bringup time.
The policy allocates a number of pages equal to the set weights. For
example, if the weights are (2,1), then 2 pages will be allocated on node0
for every 1 page allocated on node1.
The new flag MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE can be used in set_mempolicy(2)
and mbind(2).
Some high level notes about the pieces of weighted interleave:
current->il_prev:
Tracks the node previously allocated from.
current->il_weight:
The active weight of the current node (current->il_prev)
When this reaches 0, current->il_prev is set to the next node
and current->il_weight is set to the next weight.
weighted_interleave_nodes:
Counts the number of allocations as they occur, and applies the
weight for the current node. When the weight reaches 0, switch
to the next node. Operates only on task->mempolicy.
weighted_interleave_nid:
Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual
node weight, then calculates the node based on the given index.
Operates on VMA policies.
bulk_array_weighted_interleave:
Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual
node weight, then calculates the number of "interleave rounds" as
well as any delta ("partial round"). Calculates the number of
pages for each node and allocates them.
If a node was scheduled for interleave via interleave_nodes, the
current weight will be allocated first.
Operates only on the task->mempolicy.
One piece of complexity is the interaction between a recent refactor which
split the logic to acquire the "ilx" (interleave index) of an allocation
and the actually application of the interleave. If a call to
alloc_pages_mpol() were made with a weighted-interleave policy and ilx set
to NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX, weighted_interleave_nodes() would operate on a VMA
policy - violating the description above.
An inspection of all callers of alloc_pages_mpol() shows that all external
callers set ilx to `0`, an index value, or will call get_vma_policy() to
acquire the ilx.
For example, mm/shmem.c may call into alloc_pages_mpol. The call stacks
all set (pgoff_t ilx) or end up in `get_vma_policy()`. This enforces the
`weighted_interleave_nodes()` and `weighted_interleave_nid()` policy
requirements (task/vma respectively).

Mark the task as having a cached timestamp when set assign it, so we
can efficiently check if it needs updating post being scheduled back in.
This covers both the actual schedule out case, which would've flushed
the plug, and the preemption case which doesn't touch the plugged
requests (for many reasons, one of them being then we'd need to have
preemption disabled around plug state manipulation).

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.

sched.h, which defines task_struct, needs nodemask_t - but sched.h is a
frequently used header and ideally shouldn't be pulling in any more code
that it needs to.
This splits out nodemask_types.h which has the definition sched.h needs,
which will avoid a circular header dependency in the alloc tagging patch
series, and as a bonus should speed up kernel build times.

Linus suggested that the kconfig here is confusing:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wgUiAtiszwseM1p2fCJ+sC4XWQ+YN4TanFhUgvUqjr9Xw@mail.gmail.com/
Let's break it into three kconfigs controlling distinct things:
- CONFIG_IOMMU_MM_DATA controls if the mm_struct has the additional
fields for the IOMMU. Currently only PASID, but later patches store
a struct iommu_mm_data *
- CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID controls if the arch needs the scheduling bit
for keeping track of the ENQCMD instruction. x86 will select this if
IOMMU_SVA is enabled
- IOMMU_SVA controls if the IOMMU core compiles in the SVA support code
for iommu driver use and the IOMMU exported API
This way ARM will not enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID

IA-64 was the only architecture which selected ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ON_STACK.
IA-64 was removed with commit cf8e865810 ("arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64)
architecture"). Therefore remove support for ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ON_STACK
as well.
Note: this also reveals a potential bug in powerpc code, which makes use of
__init_task_data without selecting ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ON_STACK which makes
__init_task_data a no-op. This is broken since commit d11ed3ab31 ("Expand
INIT_TASK() in init/init_task.c and remove") from 2018 and needs to be
addressed separately.

Low priority tasks (e.g., SCHED_OTHER) can suffer starvation if tasks
with higher priority (e.g., SCHED_FIFO) monopolize CPU(s).
RT Throttling has been introduced a while ago as a (mostly debug)
countermeasure one can utilize to reserve some CPU time for low priority
tasks (usually background type of work, e.g. workqueues, timers, etc.).
It however has its own problems (see documentation) and the undesired
effect of unconditionally throttling FIFO tasks even when no lower
priority activity needs to run (there are mechanisms to fix this issue
as well, but, again, with their own problems).
Introduce deadline servers to service low priority tasks needs under
starvation conditions. Deadline servers are built extending SCHED_DEADLINE
implementation to allow 2-level scheduling (a sched_deadline entity
becomes a container for lower priority scheduling entities).

- After much discussion, David Laight's "minmax: Relax type checks in

To charge a freshly allocated kernel object to a memory cgroup, the kernel
needs to obtain an objcg pointer. Currently it does it indirectly by
obtaining the memcg pointer first and then calling to
__get_obj_cgroup_from_memcg().
Usually tasks spend their entire life belonging to the same object cgroup.
So it makes sense to save the objcg pointer on task_struct directly, so
it can be obtained faster. It requires some work on fork, exit and cgroup
migrate paths, but these paths are way colder.
To avoid any costly synchronization the following rules are applied:
1) A task sets it's objcg pointer itself.
2) If a task is being migrated to another cgroup, the least
significant bit of the objcg pointer is set atomically.
3) On the allocation path the objcg pointer is obtained locklessly
using the READ_ONCE() macro and the least significant bit is
checked. If it's set, the following procedure is used to update
it locklessly:
- task->objcg is zeroed using cmpxcg
- new objcg pointer is obtained
- task->objcg is updated using try_cmpxchg
- operation is repeated if try_cmpxcg fails
It guarantees that no updates will be lost if task migration
is racing against objcg pointer update. It also allows to keep
both read and write paths fully lockless.
Because the task is keeping a reference to the objcg, it can't go away
while the task is alive.
This commit doesn't change the way the remote memcg charging works.

Both glibc and musl define 'struct sched_param' in sched.h, while kernel
has it in uapi/linux/sched/types.h, making it cumbersome to use
sched_getattr(2) or sched_setattr(2) from userspace.
For example, something like this:
#include <sched.h>
#include <linux/sched/types.h>
struct sched_attr sa;
will result in "error: redefinition of ‘struct sched_param’" (note the
code doesn't need sched_param at all -- it needs struct sched_attr
plus some stuff from sched.h).
The situation is, glibc is not going to provide a wrapper for
sched_{get,set}attr, thus the need to include linux/sched_types.h
directly, which leads to the above problem.
Thus, the userspace is left with a few sub-par choices when it wants to
use e.g. sched_setattr(2), such as maintaining a copy of struct
sched_attr definition, or using some other ugly tricks.
OTOH, 'struct sched_param' is well known, defined in POSIX, and it won't
be ever changed (as that would break backward compatibility).
So, while 'struct sched_param' is indeed part of the kernel uapi,
exposing it the way it's done now creates an issue, and hiding it
(like this patch does) fixes that issue, hopefully without creating
another one: common userspace software rely on libc headers, and as
for "special" software (like libc), it looks like glibc and musl
do not rely on kernel headers for 'struct sched_param' definition
(but let's Cc their mailing lists in case it's otherwise).
The alternative to this patch would be to move struct sched_attr to,
say, linux/sched.h, or linux/sched/attr.h (the new file).
Oh, and here is the previous attempt to fix the issue:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200528135552.GA87103@google.com/
While I support Linus arguments, the issue is still here
and needs to be fixed.
[ mingo: Linus is right, this shouldn't be needed - but on the other
hand I agree that this header is not really helpful to
user-space as-is. So let's pretend that
<uapi/linux/sched/types.h> is only about sched_attr, and
call this commit a workaround for user-space breakage
that it in reality is ... Also, remove the Fixes tag. ]
