Huang Ying 3624ba7b5e sched/numa-balancing: Move some document to make it consistent with the code
After commit 8a99b6833c ("sched: Move SCHED_DEBUG sysctl to
debugfs"), some NUMA balancing sysctls enclosed with SCHED_DEBUG has
been moved to debugfs.  This patch move the document for these
sysctls from

  Documentation/admin-guide/sysctl/kernel.rst

to

  Documentation/scheduler/sched-debug.rst

to make the document consistent with the code.

Linus Torvalds 233a806b00 This was a reasonably active cycle for documentation; this pull includes:
- Some kernel-doc cleanups.  That script is still regex onslaught from
    hell, but it has gotten a little better.
 
  - Improvements to the checkpatch docs, which are also used by the tool
    itself.
 
  - A major update to the pathname lookup documentation.
 
  - Elimination of :doc: markup, since our automarkup magic can create
    references from filenames without all the extra noise.
 
  - The flurry of Chinese translation activity continues.
 
 Plus, of course, the usual collection of updates, typo fixes, and warning
 fixes.

Linus Torvalds 0e63a5c6ba It has been a relatively quiet cycle in docsland.
- As promised, the minimum Sphinx version to build the docs is now 1.7,
    and we have dropped support for Python 2 entirely.  That allowed the
    removal of a bunch of compatibility code.
 
  - A set of treewide warning fixups from Mauro that I applied after it
    became clear nobody else was going to deal with them.
 
  - The automarkup mechanism can now create cross-references from relative
    paths to RST files.
 
  - More translations, typo fixes, and warning fixes.
 
 No conflicts with any other tree as far as I know.

Barry Song 9032dc2115 Documentation: scheduler: fix information on arch SD flags, sched_domain and sched_debug
This document seems to be out of date for many, many years. Even it has
misspelled from the first day.
ARCH_HASH_SCHED_TUNE should be ARCH_HAS_SCHED_TUNE
ARCH_HASH_SCHED_DOMAIN should be ARCH_HAS_SCHED_DOMAIN

Since v2.6.14, kernel completely deleted the relevant code and even
arch_init_sched_domains() was deleted.

Right now, kernel is asking architectures to call set_sched_topology() to
override the default sched domains.

On the other hand, to print the schedule debug information, users need to
set sched_debug cmdline or enable it by sysfs entry. So this patch also
adds the description for sched_debug.

Lukasz Luba 5a64f77569 PM: EM: Clarify abstract scale usage for power values in Energy Model
The Energy Model (EM) can store power values in milli-Watts or in abstract
scale. This might cause issues in the subsystems which use the EM for
estimating the device power, such as:

 - mixing of different scales in a subsystem which uses multiple
   (cooling) devices (e.g. thermal Intelligent Power Allocation (IPA))

 - assuming that energy [milli-Joules] can be derived from the EM power
   values which might not be possible since the power scale doesn't have
   to be in milli-Watts

To avoid misconfiguration add the requisite documentation to the EM and
related subsystems: EAS and IPA.

Dave Chiluk de53fd7aed sched/fair: Fix low cpu usage with high throttling by removing expiration of cpu-local slices
It has been observed, that highly-threaded, non-cpu-bound applications
running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints can hit a high percentage of
periods throttled while simultaneously not consuming the allocated
amount of quota. This use case is typical of user-interactive non-cpu
bound applications, such as those running in kubernetes or mesos when
run on multiple cpu cores.

This has been root caused to cpu-local run queue being allocated per cpu
bandwidth slices, and then not fully using that slice within the period.
At which point the slice and quota expires. This expiration of unused
slice results in applications not being able to utilize the quota for
which they are allocated.

The non-expiration of per-cpu slices was recently fixed by
'commit 512ac999d2 ("sched/fair: Fix bandwidth timer clock drift
condition")'. Prior to that it appears that this had been broken since
at least 'commit 51f2176d74 ("sched/fair: Fix unlocked reads of some
cfs_b->quota/period")' which was introduced in v3.16-rc1 in 2014. That
added the following conditional which resulted in slices never being
expired.

if (cfs_rq->runtime_expires != cfs_b->runtime_expires) {
	/* extend local deadline, drift is bounded above by 2 ticks */
	cfs_rq->runtime_expires += TICK_NSEC;

Because this was broken for nearly 5 years, and has recently been fixed
and is now being noticed by many users running kubernetes
(https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/67577) it is my opinion
that the mechanisms around expiring runtime should be removed
altogether.

This allows quota already allocated to per-cpu run-queues to live longer
than the period boundary. This allows threads on runqueues that do not
use much CPU to continue to use their remaining slice over a longer
period of time than cpu.cfs_period_us. However, this helps prevent the
above condition of hitting throttling while also not fully utilizing
your cpu quota.

This theoretically allows a machine to use slightly more than its
allotted quota in some periods. This overflow would be bounded by the
remaining quota left on each per-cpu runqueueu. This is typically no
more than min_cfs_rq_runtime=1ms per cpu. For CPU bound tasks this will
change nothing, as they should theoretically fully utilize all of their
quota in each period. For user-interactive tasks as described above this
provides a much better user/application experience as their cpu
utilization will more closely match the amount they requested when they
hit throttling. This means that cpu limits no longer strictly apply per
period for non-cpu bound applications, but that they are still accurate
over longer timeframes.

This greatly improves performance of high-thread-count, non-cpu bound
applications with low cfs_quota_us allocation on high-core-count
machines. In the case of an artificial testcase (10ms/100ms of quota on
80 CPU machine), this commit resulted in almost 30x performance
improvement, while still maintaining correct cpu quota restrictions.
That testcase is available at https://github.com/indeedeng/fibtest.

There are a number of driver-specific descriptions that contain a

with other similar subsystems, add them at the driver-api
groupset, but don't move the directories.

Linus Torvalds e9a83bd232 It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs:
- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro.  These create more
    than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with other
    trees, unfortunately.  He has a lot more of these waiting on the wings
    that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
 
  - A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos, and one
    on Spectre vulnerabilities.
 
  - Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of
    function() references because some people, for reasons I will never
    understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
    unattractive and not fun to type.
 
  - We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
 
  - Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc.

Qian Cai 509466b7d4 sched/fair: Fix "runnable_avg_yN_inv" not used warnings
runnable_avg_yN_inv[] is only used in kernel/sched/pelt.c but was
included in several other places because they need other macros all
came from kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h which was generated by
Documentation/scheduler/sched-pelt. As the result, it causes compilation
a lot of warnings,

  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  ...

Silence it by appending the __maybe_unused attribute for it, so all
generated variables and macros can still be kept in the same file.

Henrik Austad a7ddcea58a Drop all 00-INDEX files from Documentation/
This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned)
and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct
way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox.

The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal
the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as
a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise
anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers)

A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really
needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
it is time to just throw them out.

A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first
counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last
is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.

List of outdated 00-INDEX:
Documentation: (4/10)
Documentation/sysctl: (0/1)
Documentation/timers: (1/0)
Documentation/blockdev: (3/1)
Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1)
Documentation/locking: (0/1)
Documentation/devicetree: (0/5)
Documentation/power: (1/1)
Documentation/powerpc: (0/5)
Documentation/arm: (1/0)
Documentation/x86: (0/9)
Documentation/x86/x86_64: (1/1)
Documentation/scsi: (4/4)
Documentation/filesystems: (2/9)
Documentation/filesystems/nfs: (0/2)
Documentation/cgroup-v1: (0/2)
Documentation/kbuild: (0/4)
Documentation/spi: (1/0)
Documentation/virtual/kvm: (1/0)
Documentation/scheduler: (0/2)
Documentation/fb: (0/1)
Documentation/block: (0/1)
Documentation/networking: (6/37)
Documentation/vm: (1/3)

Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that
are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no
00-INDEX).

I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX,
but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If
we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not
if we just want to delete them anyway.

As a starting point, remove all index-files and references to 00-INDEX and
see where the discussion is going.

The example says group A and B both have 50% bandwidth, and a while (1)
loop in A will run for the full period of B and can starve B's tasks.

So I think the runtime of group A should be 50000us, then the period and
runtime of group B should be 50000us and 25000us.
