2008-11-29sched: prevent divide by zero error in cpu_avg_load_per_task, updateIngo Molnar
Regarding the bug addressed in: 4cd4262: sched: prevent divide by zero error in cpu_avg_load_per_task Linus points out that the fix is not complete: > There's nothing that keeps gcc from deciding not to reload > rq->nr_running. > > Of course, in _practice_, I don't think gcc ever will (if it decides > that it will spill, gcc is likely going to decide that it will > literally spill the local variable to the stack rather than decide to > reload off the pointer), but it's a valid compiler optimization, and > it even has a name (rematerialization). > > So I suspect that your patch does fix the bug, but it still leaves the > fairly unlikely _potential_ for it to re-appear at some point. > > We have ACCESS_ONCE() as a macro to guarantee that the compiler > doesn't rematerialize a pointer access. That also would clarify > the fact that we access something unsafe outside a lock. So make sure our nr_running value is immutable and cannot change after we check it for nonzero.

The branch profiler simply made the race window bigger. This patch saves off the rq->nr_running to a local variable and uses that for both the condition and the division.

2008-11-26sched: avoid stack var in move_task_off_dead_cpu, fixRusty Russell
Impact: locking fix We can't call cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() with the rq lock held. However, the rq lock merely protects us from (1) cpu_online_mask changing and (2) someone else changing p->cpus_allowed. The first can't happen because we're being called from a cpu hotplug notifier. The second doesn't really matter: we are forcing the task off a CPU it was affine to, so we're not doing very well anyway. So we remove the rq lock from this path, and all is good.

2008-11-25hrtimer: removing all ur callback modesPeter Zijlstra
Impact: cleanup, move all hrtimer processing into hardirq context This is an attempt at removing some of the hrtimer complexity by reducing the number of callback modes to 1. This means that all hrtimer callback functions will be ran from HARD-irq context. I went through all the 30 odd hrtimer callback functions in the kernel and saw only one that I'm not quite sure of, which is the one in net/can/bcm.c - hence I'm CC-ing the folks responsible for that code. Furthermore, the hrtimer core now calls callbacks directly with IRQs disabled in case you try to enqueue an expired timer. If this timer is a periodic timer (which should use hrtimer_forward() to advance its time) then it might be possible to end up in an inf. recursive loop due to the fact that hrtimer_forward() doesn't round up to the next timer granularity, and therefore keeps on calling the callback - obviously this needs a fix. Aside from that, this seems to compile and actually boot on my dual core test box - although I'm sure there are some bugs in, me not hitting any makes me certain :-) Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This version calls cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() with the task_rq_lock held. I'm fairly sure this works, but there might be a deadlock hiding.

Impact: (future) size reduction for large NR_CPUS.

Similar trick for 'span' in sched_domain.

2008-11-23tracing/function-return-tracer: store return stack into task_struct and ↵Frederic Weisbecker
allocate it dynamically Impact: use deeper function tracing depth safely Some tests showed that function return tracing needed a more deeper depth of function calls. But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses to the stack. So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current only when the tracer is activated. Typical scheme when tracer is activated: - allocate a return stack for each task in global list. - fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task - exit: free return stack of current - idle init: same as fork I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-11-19sched: fix inconsistency when redistribute per-cpu tg->cfs_rq sharesKen Chen
Impact: make load-balancing more consistent In the update_shares() path leading to tg_shares_up(), the calculation of per-cpu cfs_rq shares is rather erratic even under moderate task wake up rate. The problem is that the per-cpu tg->cfs_rq load weight used in the sd_rq_weight aggregation and actual redistribution of the cfs_rq->shares are collected at different time. Under moderate system load, we've seen quite a bit of variation on the cfs_rq->shares and ultimately wildly affects sched_entity's load weight. This patch caches the result of initial per-cpu load weight when doing the sum calculation, and then pass it down to update_group_shares_cpu() for redistributing per-cpu cfs_rq shares. This allows consistent total cfs_rq shares across all CPUs. It also simplifies the rounding and zero load weight check.

2008-11-11fix for account_group_exec_runtime(), make sure ->signal can't be freed ↵Oleg Nesterov
under rq->lock Impact: fix hang/crash on ia64 under high load This is ugly, but the simplest patch by far. Unlike other similar routines, account_group_exec_runtime() could be called "implicitly" from within scheduler after exit_notify(). This means we can race with the parent doing release_task(), we can't just check ->signal != NULL. Change __exit_signal() to do spin_unlock_wait(&task_rq(tsk)->lock) before __cleanup_signal() to make sure ->signal can't be freed under task_rq(tsk)->lock. Note that task_rq_unlock_wait() doesn't care about the case when tsk changes cpu/rq under us, this should be OK. Thanks to Ingo who nacked my previous buggy patch.

2008-11-10sched: clean up debug infoPeter Zijlstra
Impact: clean up and fix debug info printout While looking over the sched_debug code I noticed that we printed the rq schedstats for every cfs_rq, ammend this. Also change nr_spead_over into an int, and fix a little buglet in min_vruntime printing. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
