2012-11-14cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for repeat modeYouquan Song
The prediction for future is difficult and when the cpuidle governor prediction fails and govenor possibly choose the shallower C-state than it should. How to quickly notice and find the failure becomes important for power saving. cpuidle menu governor has a method to predict the repeat pattern if there are 8 C-states residency which are continuous and the same or very close, so it will predict the next C-states residency will keep same residency time. There is a real case that turbostat utility (tools/power/x86/turbostat) at kernel 3.3 or early. turbostat utility will read 10 registers one by one at Sandybridge, so it will generate 10 IPIs to wake up idle CPUs. So cpuidle menu governor will predict it is repeat mode and there is another IPI wake up idle CPU soon, so it keeps idle CPU stay at C1 state even though CPU is totally idle. However, in the turbostat, following 10 registers reading is sleep 5 seconds by default, so the idle CPU will keep at C1 for a long time though it is idle until break event occurs. In a idle Sandybridge system, run "./turbostat -v", we will notice that deep C-state dangles between "70% ~ 99%". After patched the kernel, we will notice deep C-state stays at >99.98%. In the patch, a timer is added when menu governor detects a repeat mode and choose a shallow C-state. The timer is set to a time out value that greater than predicted time, and we conclude repeat mode prediction failure if timer is triggered. When repeat mode happens as expected, the timer is not triggered and CPU waken up from C-states and it will cancel the timer initiatively. When repeat mode does not happen, the timer will be time out and menu governor will quickly notice that the repeat mode prediction fails and then re-evaluates deeper C-states possibility. Below is another case which will clearly show the patch much benefit: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <time.h> #include <pthread.h> volatile int * shutdown; volatile long * count; int delay = 20; int loop = 8; void usage(void) { fprintf(stderr, "Usage: idle_predict [options]\n" " --help -h Print this help\n" " --thread -n Thread number\n" " --loop -l Loop times in shallow Cstate\n" " --delay -t Sleep time (uS)in shallow Cstate\n"); } void *simple_loop() { int idle_num = 1; while (!(*shutdown)) { *count = *count + 1; if (idle_num % loop) usleep(delay); else { /* sleep 1 second */ usleep(1000000); idle_num = 0; } idle_num++; } } static void sighand(int sig) { *shutdown = 1; } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { sigset_t sigset; int signum = SIGALRM; int i, c, er = 0, thread_num = 8; pthread_t pt[1024]; static char optstr[] = "n:l:t:h:"; while ((c = getopt(argc, argv, optstr)) != EOF) switch (c) { case 'n': thread_num = atoi(optarg); break; case 'l': loop = atoi(optarg); break; case 't': delay = atoi(optarg); break; case 'h': default: usage(); exit(1); } printf("thread=%d,loop=%d,delay=%d\n",thread_num,loop,delay); count = malloc(sizeof(long)); shutdown = malloc(sizeof(int)); *count = 0; *shutdown = 0; sigemptyset(&sigset); sigaddset(&sigset, signum); sigprocmask (SIG_BLOCK, &sigset, NULL); signal(SIGINT, sighand); signal(SIGTERM, sighand); for(i = 0; i < thread_num ; i++) pthread_create(&pt[i], NULL, simple_loop, NULL); for (i = 0; i < thread_num; i++) pthread_join(pt[i], NULL); exit(0); } Get powertop V2 from git://github.com/fenrus75/powertop, build powertop. After build the above test application, then run it. Test plaform can be Intel Sandybridge or other recent platforms. #./idle_predict -l 10 & #./powertop We will find that deep C-state will dangle between 40%~100% and much time spent on C1 state. It is because menu governor wrongly predict that repeat mode is kept, so it will choose the C1 shallow C-state even though it has chance to sleep 1 second in deep C-state. While after patched the kernel, we find that deep C-state will keep >99.6%. Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Youquan Song <youquan.song@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2012-10-05nohz: Fix one jiffy count too far in idle cputimeFrederic Weisbecker
When we stop the tick in idle, we save the current jiffies value in ts->idle_jiffies. This snapshot is substracted from the later value of jiffies when the tick is restarted and the resulting delta is accounted as idle cputime. This is how we handle the idle cputime accounting without the tick. But sometimes we need to schedule the next tick to some time in the future instead of completely stopping it. In this case, a tick may happen before we restart the periodic behaviour and from that tick we account one jiffy to idle cputime as usual but we also increment the ts->idle_jiffies snapshot by one so that when we compute the delta to account, we substract the one jiffy we just accounted. To prepare for stopping the tick outside idle, we introduced a check that prevents from fixing up that ts->idle_jiffies if we are not running the idle task. But we use idle_cpu() for that and this is a problem if we run the tick while another CPU remotely enqueues a ttwu to our runqueue: CPU 0: CPU 1: tick_sched_timer() { ttwu_queue_remote() if (idle_cpu(CPU 0)) ts->idle_jiffies++; } Here, idle_cpu() notes that &rq->wake_list is not empty and hence won't consider the CPU as idle. As a result, ts->idle_jiffies won't be incremented. But this is wrong because we actually account the current jiffy to idle cputime. And that jiffy won't get substracted from the nohz time delta. So in the end, this jiffy is accounted twice. Fix this by changing idle_cpu(smp_processor_id()) with is_idle_task(current). This way the jiffy is substracted correctly even if a ttwu operation is enqueued on the CPU.

2012-09-24jiffies: Remove compile time assumptions about CLOCK_TICK_RATEJohn Stultz
CLOCK_TICK_RATE is used to accurately caclulate exactly how a tick will be at a given HZ. This is useful, because while we'd expect NSEC_PER_SEC/HZ, the underlying hardware will have some granularity limit, so we won't be able to have exactly HZ ticks per second. This slight error can cause timekeeping quality problems when using the jiffies or other jiffies driven clocksources. Thus we currently use compile time CLOCK_TICK_RATE value to generate SHIFTED_HZ and NSEC_PER_JIFFIES, which we then use to adjust the jiffies clocksource to correct this error. Unfortunately though, since CLOCK_TICK_RATE is a compile time value, and the jiffies clocksource is registered very early during boot, there are a number of cases where there are different possible hardware timers that have different tick rates. This causes problems in cases like ARM where there are numerous different types of hardware, each having their own compile-time CLOCK_TICK_RATE, making it hard to accurately support different hardware with a single kernel. For the most part, this doesn't matter all that much, as not too many systems actually utilize the jiffies or jiffies driven clocksource. Usually there are other highres clocksources who's granularity error is negligable. Even so, we have some complicated calcualtions that we do everywhere to handle these edge cases. This patch removes the compile time SHIFTED_HZ value, and introduces a register_refined_jiffies() function. This results in the default jiffies clock as being assumed a perfect HZ freq, and allows archtectures that care about jiffies accuracy to call register_refined_jiffies() with the tick rate, specified dynamically at boot. This allows us, where necessary, to not have a compile time CLOCK_TICK_RATE constant, simplifies the jiffies code, and still provides a way to have an accurate jiffies clock. NOTE: Since this patch does not add register_refinied_jiffies() calls for every arch, it may cause time quality regressions in some cases. Its likely these will not be noticable, but if they are an issue, adding the following to the end of setup_arch() should resolve the regression: register_refinied_jiffies(CLOCK_TICK_RATE) Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Cc: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>

2012-09-24alarmtimer: Use hrtimer per-alarm instead of per-baseJohn Stultz
Arve Hjønnevåg reported numerous crashes from the "BUG_ON(timer->state != HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK)" check in __run_hrtimer after it called alarmtimer_fired. It ends up the alarmtimer code was not properly handling possible failures of hrtimer_try_to_cancel, and because these faulres occur when the underlying base hrtimer is being run, this limits the ability to properly handle modifications to any alarmtimers on that base. Because much of the logic duplicates the hrtimer logic, it seems that we might as well have a per-alarmtimer hrtimer, and avoid the extra complextity of trying to multiplex many alarmtimers off of one hrtimer. Thus this patch moves the hrtimer to the alarm structure and simplifies the management logic.

2012-09-24alarmtimer: Implement minimum alarm interval for allowing suspendTodd Poynor
alarmtimer suspend return -EBUSY if the next alarm will fire in less than 2 seconds. This allows one RTC seconds tick to occur subsequent to this check before the alarm wakeup time is set, ensuring the wakeup time is still in the future (assuming the RTC does not tick one more second prior to setting the alarm). If suspend is rejected due to an imminent alarm, hold a wakeup source for 2 seconds to process the alarm prior to reattempting suspend. If setting the alarm incurs an -ETIME for an alarm set in the past, or any other problem setting the alarm, abort suspend and hold a wakelock for 1 second while the alarm is allowed to be serviced or other hopefully transient conditions preventing the alarm clear up.

2012-09-23time: RCU permitted to stop idle entry via softirqPaul E. McKenney
The can_stop_idle_tick() function complains if a softirq vector is raised too late in the idle-entry process, presumably in order to prevent dangling softirq invocations from being delayed across the full idle period, which might be indefinitely long -- and if softirq was asserted any later than the call to this function, such a delay might well happen. However, RCU needs to be able to use softirq to stop idle entry in order to be able to drain RCU callbacks from the current CPU, which in turn enables faster entry into dyntick-idle mode, which in turn reduces power consumption. Because RCU takes this action at a well-defined point in the idle-entry path, it is safe for RCU to take this approach. This commit therefore silences the error message that is sometimes produced when the going-idle CPU suddenly finds that it has an RCU_SOFTIRQ to process. The error message will continue to be issued for other softirq vectors. Reported-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2012-09-13time: Fix timeekeping_get_ns overflow on 32bit systemsJohn Stultz
Daniel Lezcano reported seeing multi-second stalls from keyboard input on his T61 laptop when NOHZ and CPU_IDLE were enabled on a 32bit kernel. He bisected the problem down to commit 1e75fa8be9fb6 ("time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec"). After reproducing this issue, I narrowed the problem down to the fact that timekeeping_get_ns() returns a 64bit nsec value that hasn't been accumulated. In some cases this value was being then stored in timespec.tv_nsec (which is a long). On 32bit systems, with idle times larger then 4 seconds (or less, depending on the value of xtime_nsec), the returned nsec value would overflow 32bits. This limited kept time from increasing, causing timers to not expire. The fix is to make sure we don't directly store the result of timekeeping_get_ns() into a tv_nsec field, instead using a 64bit nsec value which can then be added into the timespec via timespec_add_ns().

2012-09-01time: Move ktime_t overflow checking into timespec_valid_strictJohn Stultz
Andreas Bombe reported that the added ktime_t overflow checking added to timespec_valid in commit 4e8b14526ca7 ("time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputs") was causing problems with X.org because it caused timeouts larger then KTIME_T to be invalid. Previously, these large timeouts would be clamped to KTIME_MAX and would never expire, which is valid.

2012-08-15time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputsJohn Stultz
Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the year 2262). Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are injected via adjtimex. So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid negative value or one that overflows ktime_t. Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

For performance reasons, we maintain ktime_t based duplicates of wall_to_monotonic (offs_real) and total_sleep_time (offs_boot). Since large problems could occur (such as the resume regression on 3.5-rc7, or the leapsecond hrtimer issue) if these value pairs were to be inconsistently updated, this patch this cleans up how we modify these value pairs to ensure we are always consistent. As a side-effect this is also more efficient as we only caulculate the duplicate values when they are changed, rather then every update_wall_time call. This also provides WARN_ONs to detect if future changes break the invariants.
