748d2e9585 sched/core: Do not requeue task on CPU excluded from cpus_mask
[ Upstream commit 751d4cbc43 ]

The following warning was triggered on a large machine early in boot on
a distribution kernel but the same problem should also affect mainline.

   WARNING: CPU: 439 PID: 10 at ../kernel/workqueue.c:2231 process_one_work+0x4d/0x440
   Call Trace:
    <TASK>
    rescuer_thread+0x1f6/0x360

    </TASK>

Commit c6e7bd7afa ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
optimises ttwu by queueing a task that is descheduling on the wakelist,
but does not check if the task descheduling is still allowed to run on that CPU.

In this warning, the problematic task is a workqueue rescue thread which
checks if the rescue is for a per-cpu workqueue and running on the wrong CPU.
While this is early in boot and it should be possible to create workers,
the rescue thread may still used if the MAYDAY_INITIAL_TIMEOUT is reached
or MAYDAY_INTERVAL and on a sufficiently large machine, the rescue
thread is being used frequently.

Tracing confirmed that the task should have migrated properly using the
stopper thread to handle the migration. However, a parallel wakeup from udev
running on another CPU that does not share CPU cache observes p->on_cpu and
uses task_cpu(p), queues the task on the old CPU and triggers the warning.

Check that the wakee task that is descheduling is still allowed to run
on its current CPU and if not, wait for the descheduling to complete
and select an allowed CPU.

dd960a0ddd sched: Remove the limitation of WF_ON_CPU on wakelist if wakee cpu is idle
[ Upstream commit f3dd3f6745 ]

Wakelist can help avoid cache bouncing and offload the overhead of waker
cpu. So far, using wakelist within the same llc only happens on
WF_ON_CPU, and this limitation could be removed to further improve
wakeup performance.

The commit 518cd62341 ("sched: Only queue remote wakeups when
crossing cache boundaries") disabled queuing tasks on wakelist when
the cpus share llc. This is because, at that time, the scheduler must
send IPIs to do ttwu_queue_wakelist. Nowadays, ttwu_queue_wakelist also
supports TIF_POLLING, so this is not a problem now when the wakee cpu is
in idle polling.

Benefits:
  Queuing the task on idle cpu can help improving performance on waker cpu
  and utilization on wakee cpu, and further improve locality because
  the wakee cpu can handle its own rq. This patch helps improving rt on
  our real java workloads where wakeup happens frequently.

  Consider the normal condition (CPU0 and CPU1 share same llc)
  Before this patch:

         CPU0                                       CPU1

    select_task_rq()                                idle
    rq_lock(CPU1->rq)
    enqueue_task(CPU1->rq)
    notify CPU1 (by sending IPI or CPU1 polling)

                                                    resched()

  After this patch:

         CPU0                                       CPU1

    select_task_rq()                                idle
    add to wakelist of CPU1
    notify CPU1 (by sending IPI or CPU1 polling)

                                                    rq_lock(CPU1->rq)
                                                    enqueue_task(CPU1->rq)
                                                    resched()

  We see CPU0 can finish its work earlier. It only needs to put task to
  wakelist and return.
  While CPU1 is idle, so let itself handle its own runqueue data.

This patch brings no difference about IPI.
  This patch only takes effect when the wakee cpu is:
  1) idle polling
  2) idle not polling

  For 1), there will be no IPI with or without this patch.

  For 2), there will always be an IPI before or after this patch.
  Before this patch: waker cpu will enqueue task and check preempt. Since
  "idle" will be sure to be preempted, waker cpu must send a resched IPI.
  After this patch: waker cpu will put the task to the wakelist of wakee
  cpu, and send an IPI.

Our patch has improvement on schbench, hackbench
and Pipe-based Context Switching of unixbench
when there exists idle cpus,
and no obvious regression on other tests of unixbench.
This can help improve rt in scenes where wakeup happens frequently.

f9ab9bcf53 sched: Fix the check of nr_running at queue wakelist
[ Upstream commit 28156108fe ]

The commit 2ebb177175 ("sched/core: Offload wakee task activation if it
the wakee is descheduling") checked rq->nr_running <= 1 to avoid task
stacking when WF_ON_CPU.

Per the ordering of writes to p->on_rq and p->on_cpu, observing p->on_cpu
(WF_ON_CPU) in ttwu_queue_cond() implies !p->on_rq, IOW p has gone through
the deactivate_task() in __schedule(), thus p has been accounted out of
rq->nr_running. As such, the task being the only runnable task on the rq
implies reading rq->nr_running == 0 at that point.

The benchmark result is in [1].

147f66d22f sched, cpuset: Fix dl_cpu_busy() panic due to empty cs->cpus_allowed
[ Upstream commit b6e8d40d43 ]

With cgroup v2, the cpuset's cpus_allowed mask can be empty indicating
that the cpuset will just use the effective CPUs of its parent. So
cpuset_can_attach() can call task_can_attach() with an empty mask.
This can lead to cpumask_any_and() returns nr_cpu_ids causing the call
to dl_bw_of() to crash due to percpu value access of an out of bound
CPU value. For example:

	[80468.182258] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff8b6648b0
	  :
	[80468.191019] RIP: 0010:dl_cpu_busy+0x30/0x2b0

Fix that by using effective_cpus instead. For cgroup v1, effective_cpus
is the same as cpus_allowed. For v2, effective_cpus is the real cpumask
to be used by tasks within the cpuset anyway.

Also update task_can_attach()'s 2nd argument name to cs_effective_cpus to
reflect the change. In addition, a check is added to task_can_attach()
to guard against the possibility that cpumask_any_and() may return a
value >= nr_cpu_ids.

e51b981663 sched/deadline: Merge dl_task_can_attach() and dl_cpu_busy()
[ Upstream commit 772b6539fd ]

Both functions are doing almost the same, that is checking if admission
control is still respected.

With exclusive cpusets, dl_task_can_attach() checks if the destination
cpuset (i.e. its root domain) has enough CPU capacity to accommodate the
task.
dl_cpu_busy() checks if there is enough CPU capacity in the cpuset in
case the CPU is hot-plugged out.

dl_task_can_attach() is used to check if a task can be admitted while
dl_cpu_busy() is used to check if a CPU can be hotplugged out.

Make dl_cpu_busy() able to deal with a task and use it instead of
dl_task_can_attach() in task_can_attach().

Here the kworker is waiting on msdos_sb_info::s_lock which is held by
tar which is in turn waiting for a buffer which is locked waiting to be
flushed, but this operation is plugged in the kworker.

The lock is a normal struct mutex, so tsk_is_pi_blocked() will always
return false on !RT and thus the behaviour changes for RT.

It seems that the intent here is to skip blk_flush_plug() in the case
where a non-preemptible lock (such as a spinlock) has been converted to
a rtmutex on RT, which is the case covered by the SM_RTLOCK_WAIT
schedule flag.  But sched_submit_work() is only called from schedule()
which is never called in this scenario, so the check can simply be
deleted.

Looking at the history of the -rt patchset, in fact this change was
present from v5.9.1-rt20 until being dropped in v5.13-rt1 as it was part
of a larger patch [1] most of which was replaced by commit b4bfa3fcfe
("sched/core: Rework the __schedule() preempt argument").

As described in [1]:

   The schedule process must distinguish between blocking on a regular
   sleeping lock (rwsem and mutex) and a RT-only sleeping lock (spinlock
   and rwlock):
   - rwsem and mutex must flush block requests (blk_schedule_flush_plug())
     even if blocked on a lock. This can not deadlock because this also
     happens for non-RT.
     There should be a warning if the scheduling point is within a RCU read
     section.

   - spinlock and rwlock must not flush block requests. This will deadlock
     if the callback attempts to acquire a lock which is already acquired.
     Similarly to being preempted, there should be no warning if the
     scheduling point is within a RCU read section.

and with the tsk_is_pi_blocked() in the scheduler path, we hit the first
issue.

668a1f5e75 sched: Fix balance_push() vs __sched_setscheduler()
[ Upstream commit 04193d590b ]

The purpose of balance_push() is to act as a filter on task selection
in the case of CPU hotplug, specifically when taking the CPU out.

It does this by (ab)using the balance callback infrastructure, with
the express purpose of keeping all the unlikely/odd cases in a single
place.

In order to serve its purpose, the balance_push_callback needs to be
(exclusively) on the callback list at all times (noting that the
callback always places itself back on the list the moment it runs,
also noting that when the CPU goes down, regular balancing concerns
are moot, so ignoring them is fine).

And here-in lies the problem, __sched_setscheduler()'s use of
splice_balance_callbacks() takes the callbacks off the list across a
lock-break, making it possible for, an interleaving, __schedule() to
see an empty list and not get filtered.

aeca695a19 sched/core: Avoid obvious double update_rq_clock warning
[ Upstream commit 2679a83731 ]

When we use raw_spin_rq_lock() to acquire the rq lock and have to
update the rq clock while holding the lock, the kernel may issue
a WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.

Since we directly use raw_spin_rq_lock() to acquire rq lock instead of
rq_lock(), there is no corresponding change to rq->clock_update_flags.
In particular, we have obtained the rq lock of other CPUs, the
rq->clock_update_flags of this CPU may be RQCF_UPDATED at this time, and
then calling update_rq_clock() will trigger the WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.

So we need to clear RQCF_UPDATED of rq->clock_update_flags to avoid
the WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.

For the sched_rt_period_timer() and migrate_task_rq_dl() cases
we simply replace raw_spin_rq_lock()/raw_spin_rq_unlock() with
rq_lock()/rq_unlock().

For the {pull,push}_{rt,dl}_task() cases, we add the
double_rq_clock_clear_update() function to clear RQCF_UPDATED of
rq->clock_update_flags, and call double_rq_clock_clear_update()
before double_lock_balance()/double_rq_lock() returns to avoid the
WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.

e0bcd6b577 sched/fair: Fix fault in reweight_entity
[ Upstream commit 13765de814 ]

Syzbot found a GPF in reweight_entity. This has been bisected to
commit 4ef0c5c6b5 ("kernel/sched: Fix sched_fork() access an invalid
sched_task_group")

There is a race between sched_post_fork() and setpriority(PRIO_PGRP)
within a thread group that causes a null-ptr-deref in
reweight_entity() in CFS. The scenario is that the main process spawns
number of new threads, which then call setpriority(PRIO_PGRP, 0, -20),
wait, and exit.  For each of the new threads the copy_process() gets
invoked, which adds the new task_struct and calls sched_post_fork()
for it.

In the above scenario there is a possibility that
setpriority(PRIO_PGRP) and set_one_prio() will be called for a thread
in the group that is just being created by copy_process(), and for
which the sched_post_fork() has not been executed yet. This will
trigger a null pointer dereference in reweight_entity(), as it will
try to access the run queue pointer, which hasn't been set.

Before the mentioned change the cfs_rq pointer for the task  has been
set in sched_fork(), which is called much earlier in copy_process(),
before the new task is added to the thread_group.  Now it is done in
the sched_post_fork(), which is called after that.  To fix the issue
the remove the update_load param from the update_load param() function
and call reweight_task() only if the task flag doesn't have the
TASK_NEW flag set.

a246d92dda sched/uclamp: Fix rq->uclamp_max not set on first enqueue
[ Upstream commit 315c4f8848 ]

Commit d81ae8aac8 ("sched/uclamp: Fix initialization of struct
uclamp_rq") introduced a bug where uclamp_max of the rq is not reset to
match the woken up task's uclamp_max when the rq is idle.

The code was relying on rq->uclamp_max initialized to zero, so on first
enqueue

	static inline void uclamp_rq_inc_id(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p,
					    enum uclamp_id clamp_id)
	{
		...

		if (uc_se->value > READ_ONCE(uc_rq->value))
			WRITE_ONCE(uc_rq->value, uc_se->value);
	}

was actually resetting it. But since commit d81ae8aac8 changed the
default to 1024, this no longer works. And since rq->uclamp_flags is
also initialized to 0, neither above code path nor uclamp_idle_reset()
update the rq->uclamp_max on first wake up from idle.

This is only visible from first wake up(s) until the first dequeue to
idle after enabling the static key. And it only matters if the
uclamp_max of this task is < 1024 since only then its uclamp_max will be
effectively ignored.

Fix it by properly initializing rq->uclamp_flags = UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE to
ensure uclamp_idle_reset() is called which then will update the rq
uclamp_max value as expected.

229c555260 sched/scs: Reset task stack state in bringup_cpu()
[ Upstream commit dce1ca0525 ]

To hot unplug a CPU, the idle task on that CPU calls a few layers of C
code before finally leaving the kernel. When KASAN is in use, poisoned
shadow is left around for each of the active stack frames, and when
shadow call stacks are in use. When shadow call stacks (SCS) are in use
the task's saved SCS SP is left pointing at an arbitrary point within
the task's shadow call stack.

When a CPU is offlined than onlined back into the kernel, this stale
state can adversely affect execution. Stale KASAN shadow can alias new
stackframes and result in bogus KASAN warnings. A stale SCS SP is
effectively a memory leak, and prevents a portion of the shadow call
stack being used. Across a number of hotplug cycles the idle task's
entire shadow call stack can become unusable.

We previously fixed the KASAN issue in commit:

  e1b77c9298 ("sched/kasan: remove stale KASAN poison after hotplug")

... by removing any stale KASAN stack poison immediately prior to
onlining a CPU.

Subsequently in commit:

  f1a0a376ca ("sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled")

... the refactoring left the KASAN and SCS cleanup in one-time idle
thread initialization code rather than something invoked prior to each
CPU being onlined, breaking both as above.

We fixed SCS (but not KASAN) in commit:

  63acd42c0d ("sched/scs: Reset the shadow stack when idle_task_exit")

... but as this runs in the context of the idle task being offlined it's
potentially fragile.

To fix these consistently and more robustly, reset the SCS SP and KASAN
shadow of a CPU's idle task immediately before we online that CPU in
bringup_cpu(). This ensures the idle task always has a consistent state
when it is running, and removes the need to so so when exiting an idle
task.

Whenever any thread is created, dup_task_struct() will give the task a
stack which is free of KASAN shadow, and initialize the task's SCS SP,
so there's no need to specially initialize either for idle thread within
init_idle(), as this was only necessary to handle hotplug cycles.

I've tested this on arm64 with:

* gcc 11.1.0, defconfig +KASAN_INLINE, KASAN_STACK
* clang 12.0.0, defconfig +KASAN_INLINE, KASAN_STACK, SHADOW_CALL_STACK

... offlining and onlining CPUS with:

| while true; do
|   for C in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online; do
|     echo 0 > $C;
|     echo 1 > $C;
|   done
| done

512e21c150 sched/fair: Prevent dead task groups from regaining cfs_rq's
[ Upstream commit b027789e5e ]

Kevin is reporting crashes which point to a use-after-free of a cfs_rq
in update_blocked_averages(). Initial debugging revealed that we've
live cfs_rq's (on_list=1) in an about to be kfree()'d task group in
free_fair_sched_group(). However, it was unclear how that can happen.

His kernel config happened to lead to a layout of struct sched_entity
that put the 'my_q' member directly into the middle of the object
which makes it incidentally overlap with SLUB's freelist pointer.
That, in combination with SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED's freelist pointer
mangling, leads to a reliable access violation in form of a #GP which
made the UAF fail fast.

Michal seems to have run into the same issue[1]. He already correctly
diagnosed that commit a7b359fc6a ("sched/fair: Correctly insert
cfs_rq's to list on unthrottle") is causing the preconditions for the
UAF to happen by re-adding cfs_rq's also to task groups that have no
more running tasks, i.e. also to dead ones. His analysis, however,
misses the real root cause and it cannot be seen from the crash
backtrace only, as the real offender is tg_unthrottle_up() getting
called via sched_cfs_period_timer() via the timer interrupt at an
inconvenient time.

When unregister_fair_sched_group() unlinks all cfs_rq's from the dying
task group, it doesn't protect itself from getting interrupted. If the
timer interrupt triggers while we iterate over all CPUs or after
unregister_fair_sched_group() has finished but prior to unlinking the
task group, sched_cfs_period_timer() will execute and walk the list of
task groups, trying to unthrottle cfs_rq's, i.e. re-add them to the
dying task group. These will later -- in free_fair_sched_group() -- be
kfree()'ed while still being linked, leading to the fireworks Kevin
and Michal are seeing.

To fix this race, ensure the dying task group gets unlinked first.
However, simply switching the order of unregistering and unlinking the
task group isn't sufficient, as concurrent RCU walkers might still see
it, as can be seen below:

    CPU1:                                      CPU2:

CPU 2 walks the task group list in parallel to sched_offline_group(),
specifically, it'll read the soon to be unlinked task group entry at
(1). Unlinking it on CPU 1 at (2) therefore won't prevent CPU 2 from
still passing it on to tg_unthrottle_up(). CPU 1 now tries to unlink
all cfs_rq's via list_del_leaf_cfs_rq() in
unregister_fair_sched_group().  Meanwhile CPU 2 will re-add some of
these at (3), which is the cause of the UAF later on.

To prevent this additional race from happening, we need to wait until
walk_tg_tree_from() has finished traversing the task groups, i.e.
after the RCU read critical section ends in (4). Afterwards we're safe
to call unregister_fair_sched_group(), as each new walk won't see the
dying task group any more.

On top of that, we need to wait yet another RCU grace period after
unregister_fair_sched_group() to ensure print_cfs_stats(), which might
run concurrently, always sees valid objects, i.e. not already free'd
ones.

This patch survives Michal's reproducer[2] for 8h+ now, which used to
trigger within minutes before.

e4511d8dc2 sched/core: Mitigate race cpus_share_cache()/update_top_cache_domain()
[ Upstream commit 42dc938a59 ]

Nothing protects the access to the per_cpu variable sd_llc_id. When testing
the same CPU (i.e. this_cpu == that_cpu), a race condition exists with
update_top_cache_domain(). One scenario being:

              CPU1                            CPU2
  ==================================================================

  per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => 0
                                    partition_sched_domains_locked()
      				      detach_destroy_domains()
  cpus_share_cache(CPUX, CPUX)          update_top_cache_domain(CPUX)
    per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => 0
                                          per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) = CPUX
    per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => CPUX
    return false

ttwu_queue_cond() wouldn't catch smp_processor_id() == cpu and the result
is a warning triggered from ttwu_queue_wakelist().

Avoid a such race in cpus_share_cache() by always returning true when
this_cpu == that_cpu.

3869eecf05 kernel/sched: Fix sched_fork() access an invalid sched_task_group
[ Upstream commit 4ef0c5c6b5 ]

There is a small race between copy_process() and sched_fork()
where child->sched_task_group point to an already freed pointer.

	parent doing fork()      | someone moving the parent
				 | to another cgroup
  -------------------------------+-------------------------------
  copy_process()
      + dup_task_struct()<1>
				  parent move to another cgroup,
				  and free the old cgroup. <2>
      + sched_fork()
	+ __set_task_cpu()<3>
	+ task_fork_fair()
	  + sched_slice()<4>

In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and
cause panic as shown above:

  (1) parent copy its sched_task_group to child at <1>;

  (2) someone move the parent to another cgroup and free the old
      cgroup at <2>;

  (3) the sched_task_group and cfs_rq that belong to the old cgroup
      will be accessed at <3> and <4>, which cause a panic:

  [] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000

Between cgroup_can_fork() and cgroup_post_fork(), the cgroup
membership and thus sched_task_group can't change. So update child's
sched_task_group at sched_post_fork() and move task_fork() and
__set_task_cpu() (where accees the sched_task_group) from sched_fork()
to sched_post_fork().

63acd42c0d sched/scs: Reset the shadow stack when idle_task_exit
Commit f1a0a376ca ("sched/core: Initialize the idle task with
preemption disabled") removed the init_idle() call from
idle_thread_get(). This was the sole call-path on hotplug that resets
the Shadow Call Stack (scs) Stack Pointer (sp).

Not resetting the scs-sp leads to scs overflow after enough hotplug
cycles. Therefore add an explicit scs_task_reset() to the hotplug code
to make sure the scs-sp does get reset on hotplug.

868ad33bfa sched: Prevent balance_push() on remote runqueues
sched_setscheduler() and rt_mutex_setprio() invoke the run-queue balance
callback after changing priorities or the scheduling class of a task. The
run-queue for which the callback is invoked can be local or remote.

That's not a problem for the regular rq::push_work which is serialized with
a busy flag in the run-queue struct, but for the balance_push() work which
is only valid to be invoked on the outgoing CPU that's wrong. It not only
triggers the debug warning, but also leaves the per CPU variable push_work
unprotected, which can result in double enqueues on the stop machine list.

Remove the warning and validate that the function is invoked on the
outgoing CPU.

e5e726f7bb Updates for locking and atomics:
The regular pile:
 
   - A few improvements to the mutex code
 
   - Documentation updates for atomics to clarify the difference between
     cmpxchg() and try_cmpxchg() and to explain the forward progress
     expectations.
 
   - Simplification of the atomics fallback generator
 
   - The addition of arch_atomic_long*() variants and generic arch_*()
     bitops based on them.
 
   - Add the missing might_sleep() invocations to the down*() operations of
     semaphores.
 
 The PREEMPT_RT locking core:
 
   - Scheduler updates to support the state preserving mechanism for
     'sleeping' spin- and rwlocks on RT. This mechanism is carefully
     preserving the state of the task when blocking on a 'sleeping' spin- or
     rwlock and takes regular wake-ups targeted at the same task into
     account. The preserved or updated (via a regular wakeup) state is
     restored when the lock has been acquired.
 
   - Restructuring of the rtmutex code so it can be utilized and extended
     for the RT specific lock variants.
 
   - Restructuring of the ww_mutex code to allow sharing of the ww_mutex
     specific functionality for rtmutex based ww_mutexes.
 
   - Header file disentangling to allow substitution of the regular lock
     implementations with the PREEMPT_RT variants without creating an
     unmaintainable #ifdef mess.
 
   - Shared base code for the PREEMPT_RT specific rw_semaphore and rwlock
     implementations. Contrary to the regular rw_semaphores and rwlocks the
     PREEMPT_RT implementation is writer unfair because it is infeasible to
     do priority inheritance on multiple readers. Experience over the years
     has shown that real-time workloads are not the typical workloads which
     are sensitive to writer starvation. The alternative solution would be
     to allow only a single reader which has been tried and discarded as it
     is a major bottleneck especially for mmap_sem. Aside of that many of
     the writer starvation critical usage sites have been converted to a
     writer side mutex/spinlock and RCU read side protections in the past
     decade so that the issue is less prominent than it used to be.
 
   - The actual rtmutex based lock substitutions for PREEMPT_RT enabled
     kernels which affect mutex, ww_mutex, rw_semaphore, spinlock_t and
     rwlock_t. The spin/rw_lock*() functions disable migration across the
     critical section to preserve the existing semantics vs. per CPU
     variables.
 
   - Rework of the futex REQUEUE_PI mechanism to handle the case of early
     wake-ups which interleave with a re-queue operation to prevent the
     situation that a task would be blocked on both the rtmutex associated
     to the outer futex and the rtmutex based hash bucket spinlock.
 
     While this situation cannot happen on !RT enabled kernels the changes
     make the underlying concurrency problems easier to understand in
     general. As a result the difference between !RT and RT kernels is
     reduced to the handling of waiting for the critical section. !RT
     kernels simply spin-wait as before and RT kernels utilize rcu_wait().
 
   - The substitution of local_lock for PREEMPT_RT with a spinlock which
     protects the critical section while staying preemptible. The CPU
     locality is established by disabling migration.
 
   The underlying concepts of this code have been in use in PREEMPT_RT for
   way more than a decade. The code has been refactored several times over
   the years and this final incarnation has been optimized once again to be
   as non-intrusive as possible, i.e. the RT specific parts are mostly
   isolated.
 
   It has been extensively tested in the 5.14-rt patch series and it has
   been verified that !RT kernels are not affected by these changes.

07ec77a1d4 sched: Allow task CPU affinity to be restricted on asymmetric systems
Asymmetric systems may not offer the same level of userspace ISA support
across all CPUs, meaning that some applications cannot be executed by
some CPUs. As a concrete example, upcoming arm64 big.LITTLE designs do
not feature support for 32-bit applications on both clusters.

Although userspace can carefully manage the affinity masks for such
tasks, one place where it is particularly problematic is execve()
because the CPU on which the execve() is occurring may be incompatible
with the new application image. In such a situation, it is desirable to
restrict the affinity mask of the task and ensure that the new image is
entered on a compatible CPU. From userspace's point of view, this looks
the same as if the incompatible CPUs have been hotplugged off in the
task's affinity mask. Similarly, if a subsequent execve() reverts to
a compatible image, then the old affinity is restored if it is still
valid.

In preparation for restricting the affinity mask for compat tasks on
arm64 systems without uniform support for 32-bit applications, introduce
{force,relax}_compatible_cpus_allowed_ptr(), which respectively restrict
and restore the affinity mask for a task based on the compatible CPUs.

304000390f sched: Cgroup SCHED_IDLE support
This extends SCHED_IDLE to cgroups.

Interface: cgroup/cpu.idle.
 0: default behavior
 1: SCHED_IDLE

Extending SCHED_IDLE to cgroups means that we incorporate the existing
aspects of SCHED_IDLE; a SCHED_IDLE cgroup will count all of its
descendant threads towards the idle_h_nr_running count of all of its
ancestor cgroups. Thus, sched_idle_rq() will work properly.
Additionally, SCHED_IDLE cgroups are configured with minimum weight.

There are two key differences between the per-task and per-cgroup
SCHED_IDLE interface:

  - The cgroup interface allows tasks within a SCHED_IDLE hierarchy to
    maintain their relative weights. The entity that is "idle" is the
    cgroup, not the tasks themselves.

  - Since the idle entity is the cgroup, our SCHED_IDLE wakeup preemption
    decision is not made by comparing the current task with the woken
    task, but rather by comparing their matching sched_entity.

A typical use-case for this is a user that creates an idle and a
non-idle subtree. The non-idle subtree will dominate competition vs
the idle subtree, but the idle subtree will still be high priority vs
other users on the system. The latter is accomplished via comparing
matching sched_entity in the waken preemption path (this could also be
improved by making the sched_idle_rq() decision dependent on the
perspective of a specific task).

For now, we maintain the existing SCHED_IDLE semantics. Future patches
may make improvements that extend how we treat SCHED_IDLE entities.

The per-task_group idle field is an integer that currently only holds
either a 0 or a 1. This is explicitly typed as an integer to allow for
further extensions to this API. For example, a negative value may
indicate a highly latency-sensitive cgroup that should be preferred
for preemption/placement/etc.

Rework things such that rq->core is initialized to point at itself. IOW
initialize each CPU as a single threaded Core. CPU online will then join
the new CPU (thread) to an existing Core where needed.

For completeness sake, have CPU offline fully undo the state so as to

6991436c2b sched/core: Provide a scheduling point for RT locks
RT enabled kernels substitute spin/rwlocks with 'sleeping' variants based
on rtmutexes. Blocking on such a lock is similar to preemption versus:

 - I/O scheduling and worker handling, because these functions might block
   on another substituted lock, or come from a lock contention within these
   functions.

 - RCU considers this like a preemption, because the task might be in a read
   side critical section.

Add a separate scheduling point for this, and hand a new scheduling mode
argument to __schedule() which allows, along with separate mode masks, to
handle this gracefully from within the scheduler, without proliferating that
to other subsystems like RCU.

b4bfa3fcfe sched/core: Rework the __schedule() preempt argument
PREEMPT_RT needs to hand a special state into __schedule() when a task
blocks on a 'sleeping' spin/rwlock. This is required to handle
rcu_note_context_switch() correctly without having special casing in the
RCU code. From an RCU point of view the blocking on the sleeping spinlock
is equivalent to preemption, because the task might be in a read side
critical section.

schedule_debug() also has a check which would trigger with the !preempt
case, but that could be handled differently.

To avoid adding another argument and extra checks which cannot be optimized
out by the compiler, the following solution has been chosen:

 - Replace the boolean 'preempt' argument with an unsigned integer
   'sched_mode' argument and define constants to hand in:
   (0 == no preemption, 1 = preemption).

 - Add two masks to apply on that mode: one for the debug/rcu invocations,
   and one for the actual scheduling decision.

   For a non RT kernel these masks are UINT_MAX, i.e. all bits are set,
   which allows the compiler to optimize the AND operation out, because it is
   not masking out anything. IOW, it's not different from the boolean.

   RT enabled kernels will define these masks separately.

No functional change.

5f220be214 sched/wakeup: Prepare for RT sleeping spin/rwlocks
Waiting for spinlocks and rwlocks on non RT enabled kernels is task::state
preserving. Any wakeup which matches the state is valid.

RT enabled kernels substitutes them with 'sleeping' spinlocks. This creates
an issue vs. task::__state.

In order to block on the lock, the task has to overwrite task::__state and a
consecutive wakeup issued by the unlocker sets the state back to
TASK_RUNNING. As a consequence the task loses the state which was set
before the lock acquire and also any regular wakeup targeted at the task
while it is blocked on the lock.

To handle this gracefully, add a 'saved_state' member to task_struct which
is used in the following way:

 1) When a task blocks on a 'sleeping' spinlock, the current state is saved
    in task::saved_state before it is set to TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT.

 2) When the task unblocks and after acquiring the lock, it restores the saved
    state.

 3) When a regular wakeup happens for a task while it is blocked then the
    state change of that wakeup is redirected to operate on task::saved_state.

    This is also required when the task state is running because the task
    might have been woken up from the lock wait and has not yet restored
    the saved state.

To make it complete, provide the necessary helpers to save and restore the
saved state along with the necessary documentation how the RT lock blocking
is supposed to work.

For non-RT kernels there is no functional change.

43295d73ad sched/wakeup: Split out the wakeup ->__state check
RT kernels have a slightly more complicated handling of wakeups due to
'sleeping' spin/rwlocks. If a task is blocked on such a lock then the
original state of the task is preserved over the blocking period, and
any regular (non lock related) wakeup has to be targeted at the
saved state to ensure that these wakeups are not lost.

Once the task acquires the lock it restores the task state from the saved state.

To avoid cluttering try_to_wake_up() with that logic, split the wakeup
state check out into an inline helper and use it at both places where
task::__state is checked against the state argument of try_to_wake_up().

No functional change.

f4dddf90d5 sched: Skip priority checks with SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS
SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS can be passed to sched_setattr to specify that
the call must not touch scheduling parameters (nice or priority). This
is particularly handy for uclamp when used in conjunction with
SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY as that allows to issue a syscall that only
impacts uclamp values.

However, sched_setattr always checks whether the priorities and nice
values passed in sched_attr are valid first, even if those never get
used down the line. This is useless at best since userspace can
trivially bypass this check to set the uclamp values by specifying low
priorities. However, it is cumbersome to do so as there is no single
expression of this that skips both RT and CFS checks at once. As such,
userspace needs to query the task policy first with e.g. sched_getattr
and then set sched_attr.sched_priority accordingly. This is racy and
slower than a single call.

As the priority and nice checks are useless when SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS
is specified, simply inherit them in this case to match the policy
inheritance of SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY.

However, there is an asymmetry in how the flag is set and cleared which
can lead to having the flag set whilst there are active tasks on the rq.
Specifically, the flag is cleared in the uclamp_rq_inc() path, which is
called at enqueue time, but set in uclamp_rq_dec_id() which is called
both when dequeueing a task _and_ in the update_uclamp_active() path. As
a result, when both uclamp_rq_{dec,ind}_id() are called from
update_uclamp_active(), the flag ends up being set but not cleared,
hence leaving the runqueue in a broken state.

Fix this by clearing the flag in update_uclamp_active() as well.

7ad721bf10 sched: Don't report SCHED_FLAG_SUGOV in sched_getattr()
SCHED_FLAG_SUGOV is supposed to be a kernel-only flag that userspace
cannot interact with. However, sched_getattr() currently reports it
in sched_flags if called on a sugov worker even though it is not
actually defined in a UAPI header. To avoid this, make sure to
clean-up the sched_flags field in sched_getattr() before returning to
userspace.

f558c2b834 sched/rt: Fix double enqueue caused by rt_effective_prio
Double enqueues in rt runqueues (list) have been reported while running
a simple test that spawns a number of threads doing a short sleep/run
pattern while being concurrently setscheduled between rt and fair class.

__sched_setscheduler() uses rt_effective_prio() to handle proper queuing
of priority boosted tasks that are setscheduled while being boosted.
rt_effective_prio() is however called twice per each
__sched_setscheduler() call: first directly by __sched_setscheduler()
before dequeuing the task and then by __setscheduler() to actually do
the priority change. If the priority of the pi_top_task is concurrently
being changed however, it might happen that the two calls return
different results. If, for example, the first call returned the same rt
priority the task was running at and the second one a fair priority, the
task won't be removed by the rt list (on_list still set) and then
enqueued in the fair runqueue. When eventually setscheduled back to rt
it will be seen as enqueued already and the WARNING/BUG be issued.

Fix this by calling rt_effective_prio() only once and then reusing the
return value. While at it refactor code as well for clarity. Concurrent
priority inheritance handling is still safe and will eventually converge
to a new state by following the inheritance chain(s).

1eb5dde674 cpufreq: CPPC: Add support for frequency invariance
The Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) is providing a frequency scaling
correction factor that helps achieve more accurate load-tracking.

Normally, this scaling factor can be obtained directly with the help of
the cpufreq drivers as they know the exact frequency the hardware is
running at. But that isn't the case for CPPC cpufreq driver.

Another way of obtaining that is using the arch specific counter
support, which is already present in kernel, but that hardware is
optional for platforms.

This patch updates the CPPC driver to register itself with the topology
core to provide its own implementation (cppc_scale_freq_tick()) of
topology_scale_freq_tick() which gets called by the scheduler on every
tick. Note that the arch specific counters have higher priority than
CPPC counters, if available, though the CPPC driver doesn't need to have
any special handling for that.

On an invocation of cppc_scale_freq_tick(), we schedule an irq work
(since we reach here from hard-irq context), which then schedules a
normal work item and cppc_scale_freq_workfn() updates the per_cpu
arch_freq_scale variable based on the counter updates since the last
tick.

To allow platforms to disable this CPPC counter-based frequency
invariance support, this is all done under CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE,
which is enabled by default.

This also exports sched_setattr_nocheck() as the CPPC driver can be
built as a module.

- Changes to core scheduling facilities:

       coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
       requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow
       the flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing
       untrusted domains to information leaks & side channels, plus
       to ensure more deterministic computing performance on SMT
       systems used by heterogenous workloads.
 
       There's new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which
       allows more flexible management of workloads that can share
       siblings.
 
     - Fix task->state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
       wakeups and rename it to ->__state in the process to catch new
       abuses.
 
  - Load-balancing changes:
 
      - Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve
        'memcache'-like workloads.
 
      - "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track & improve workloads
        such as 'tbench'.
 
      - Fix & improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic & metrics.
 
      - Fix & improve the uclamp metrics.
 
      - Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.
 
      - Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes
 
      - Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
        bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
        quota to improve overall latencies & batching. Can be tweaked
        via /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/<X>/cpu.cfs_burst_us.
 
      - Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection & handling.
 
  - Scheduler statistics & tooling:
 
      - Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable
        it at runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and
        other optimizations to make it more palatable.
 
      - Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().

031e3bd898 sched: Optimize housekeeping_cpumask() in for_each_cpu_and()
On a 128 cores AMD machine, there are 8 cores in nohz_full mode, and
the others are used for housekeeping. When many housekeeping cpus are
in idle state, we can observe huge time burn in the loop for searching
nearest busy housekeeper cpu by ftrace.

   9)               |              get_nohz_timer_target() {
   9)               |                housekeeping_test_cpu() {
   9)   0.390 us    |                  housekeeping_get_mask.part.1();
   9)   0.561 us    |                }
   9)   0.090 us    |                __rcu_read_lock();
   9)   0.090 us    |                housekeeping_cpumask();
   9)   0.521 us    |                housekeeping_cpumask();
   9)   0.140 us    |                housekeeping_cpumask();

   ...

   9)   0.500 us    |                housekeeping_cpumask();
   9)               |                housekeeping_any_cpu() {
   9)   0.090 us    |                  housekeeping_get_mask.part.1();
   9)   0.100 us    |                  sched_numa_find_closest();
   9)   0.491 us    |                }
   9)   0.100 us    |                __rcu_read_unlock();
   9) + 76.163 us   |              }

for_each_cpu_and() is a micro function, so in get_nohz_timer_target()
function the
        for_each_cpu_and(i, sched_domain_span(sd),
                housekeeping_cpumask(HK_FLAG_TIMER))
equals to below:
        for (i = -1; i = cpumask_next_and(i, sched_domain_span(sd),
                housekeeping_cpumask(HK_FLAG_TIMER)), i < nr_cpu_ids;)
That will cause that housekeeping_cpumask() will be invoked many times.
The housekeeping_cpumask() function returns a const value, so it is
unnecessary to invoke it every time. This patch can minimize the worst
searching time from ~76us to ~16us in my testing.

Similarly, the find_new_ilb() function has the same problem.

f4183717b3 sched/fair: Introduce the burstable CFS controller
The CFS bandwidth controller limits CPU requests of a task group to
quota during each period. However, parallel workloads might be bursty
so that they get throttled even when their average utilization is under
quota. And they are latency sensitive at the same time so that
throttling them is undesired.

We borrow time now against our future underrun, at the cost of increased
interference against the other system users. All nicely bounded.

Traditional (UP-EDF) bandwidth control is something like:

  (U = \Sum u_i) <= 1

This guaranteeds both that every deadline is met and that the system is
stable. After all, if U were > 1, then for every second of walltime,
we'd have to run more than a second of program time, and obviously miss
our deadline, but the next deadline will be further out still, there is
never time to catch up, unbounded fail.

This work observes that a workload doesn't always executes the full
quota; this enables one to describe u_i as a statistical distribution.

For example, have u_i = {x,e}_i, where x is the p(95) and x+e p(100)
(the traditional WCET). This effectively allows u to be smaller,
increasing the efficiency (we can pack more tasks in the system), but at
the cost of missing deadlines when all the odds line up. However, it
does maintain stability, since every overrun must be paired with an
underrun as long as our x is above the average.

That is, suppose we have 2 tasks, both specify a p(95) value, then we
have a p(95)*p(95) = 90.25% chance both tasks are within their quota and
everything is good. At the same time we have a p(5)p(5) = 0.25% chance
both tasks will exceed their quota at the same time (guaranteed deadline
fail). Somewhere in between there's a threshold where one exceeds and
the other doesn't underrun enough to compensate; this depends on the
specific CDFs.

At the same time, we can say that the worst case deadline miss, will be
\Sum e_i; that is, there is a bounded tardiness (under the assumption
that x+e is indeed WCET).

The benefit of burst is seen when testing with schbench. Default value of
kernel.sched_cfs_bandwidth_slice_us(5ms) and CONFIG_HZ(1000) is used.

	mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test
	echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cgroup.procs
	echo 100000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cpu.cfs_quota_us
	echo 100000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cpu.cfs_burst_us

	./schbench -m 1 -t 3 -r 20 -c 80000 -R 10

The average CPU usage is at 80%. I run this for 10 times, and got long tail
latency for 6 times and got throttled for 8 times.

Tail latencies are shown below, and it wasn't the worst case.

	Latency percentiles (usec)
		50.0000th: 19872
		75.0000th: 21344
		90.0000th: 22176
		95.0000th: 22496
		*99.0000th: 22752
		99.5000th: 22752
		99.9000th: 22752
		min=0, max=22727
	rps: 9.90 p95 (usec) 22496 p99 (usec) 22752 p95/cputime 28.12% p99/cputime 28.44%

The interferenece when using burst is valued by the possibilities for
missing the deadline and the average WCET. Test results showed that when
there many cgroups or CPU is under utilized, the interference is
limited. More details are shown in:
