The percpu members of struct sd_data and s_data are declared as:
struct ... ** __percpu member;
So their type is:
__percpu pointer to pointer to struct ...
But looking at how they're used, their type should be:
pointer to __percpu pointer to struct ...
and they should thus be declared as:
struct ... * __percpu *member;
So fix the placement of '__percpu' in the definition of these
structures.
This addresses a bunch of Sparse's warnings like:
warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
expected void const [noderef] <asn:3> *__vpp_verify
got struct sched_domain **

All that fancy new Energy-Aware scheduling foo is hidden behind a
static_key, which is awesome if you have the stuff enabled in your
config.
However, when you lack all the prerequisites it doesn't make any sense
to pretend we'll ever actually run this, so provide a little more clue
to the compiler so it can more agressively delete the code.

In its current state, Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) starts automatically
on asymmetric platforms having an Energy Model (EM). However, there are
users who want to have an EM (for thermal management for example), but
don't want EAS with it.
In order to let users disable EAS explicitly, introduce a new sysctl
called 'sched_energy_aware'. It is enabled by default so that EAS can
start automatically on platforms where it makes sense. Flipping it to 0
rebuilds the scheduling domains and disables EAS.

Now that call_rcu()'s callback is not invoked until after all
preempt-disable regions of code have completed (in addition to explicitly
marked RCU read-side critical sections), call_rcu() can be used in place
of call_rcu_sched(). This commit therefore makes that change.
While in the area, this commit also updates an outdated header comment
for for_each_domain().

In order to make sure Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) will not impact
systems where no Energy Model is available, introduce a static key
guarding the access to EAS code. Since EAS is enabled on a
per-root-domain basis, the static key is enabled when at least one root
domain meets all conditions for EAS.

Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) is designed with the assumption that
frequencies of CPUs follow their utilization value. When using a CPUFreq
governor other than schedutil, the chances of this assumption being true
are small, if any. When schedutil is being used, EAS' predictions are at
least consistent with the frequency requests. Although those requests
have no guarantees to be honored by the hardware, they should at least
guide DVFS in the right direction and provide some hope in regards to the
EAS model being accurate.
To make sure EAS is only used in a sane configuration, create a strong
dependency on schedutil being used. Since having sugov compiled-in does
not provide that guarantee, make CPUFreq call a scheduler function on
governor changes hence letting it rebuild the scheduling domains, check
the governors of the online CPUs, and enable/disable EAS accordingly.

Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) in its current form is most relevant on
platforms with asymmetric CPU topologies (e.g. Arm big.LITTLE) since
this is where there is a lot of potential for saving energy through
scheduling. This is particularly true since the Energy Model only
includes the active power costs of CPUs, hence not providing enough data
to compare packing-vs-spreading strategies.
As such, disable EAS on root domains where the SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag
is not set. While at it, disable EAS on systems where the complexity of
the Energy Model is too high since that could lead to unacceptable
scheduling overhead.
All in all, EAS can be used on a root domain if and only if:
1. an Energy Model is available;
2. the root domain has an asymmetric CPU capacity topology;
3. the complexity of the root domain's EM is low enough to keep
scheduling overheads low.

Add another member to the family of per-cpu sched_domain shortcut
pointers. This one, sd_asym_cpucapacity, points to the lowest level
at which the SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag is set. While at it, rename the
sd_asym shortcut to sd_asym_packing to avoid confusions.
Generally speaking, the largest opportunity to save energy via
scheduling comes from a smarter exploitation of heterogeneous platforms
(i.e. big.LITTLE). Consequently, the sd_asym_cpucapacity shortcut will
be used at first as the lowest domain where Energy-Aware Scheduling
(EAS) should be applied. For example, it is possible to apply EAS within
a socket on a multi-socket system, as long as each socket has an
asymmetric topology. Energy-aware cross-sockets wake-up balancing will
only happen when the system is over-utilized, or this_cpu and prev_cpu
are in different sockets.

The existing scheduling domain hierarchy is defined to map to the cache
topology of the system. However, Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) requires
more knowledge about the platform, and specifically needs to know about
the span of Performance Domains (PD), which do not always align with
caches.
To address this issue, use the Energy Model (EM) of the system to extend
the scheduler topology code with a representation of the PDs, alongside
the scheduling domains. More specifically, a linked list of PDs is
attached to each root domain. When multiple root domains are in use,
each list contains only the PDs covering the CPUs of its root domain. If
a PD spans over CPUs of multiple different root domains, it will be
duplicated in all lists.
The lists are fully maintained by the scheduler from
partition_sched_domains() in order to cope with hotplug and cpuset
changes. As for scheduling domains, the list are protected by RCU to
ensure safe concurrent updates.

::smt_gain is used to compute the capacity of CPUs of a SMT core with the
constraint 1 < ::smt_gain < 2 in order to be able to compute number of CPUs
per core. The field has_free_capacity of struct numa_stat, which was the
last user of this computation of number of CPUs per core, has been removed
by:
2d4056fafa19 ("sched/numa: Remove numa_has_capacity()")
We can now remove this constraint on core capacity and use the defautl value
SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE for SMT CPUs. With this remove, SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
becomes the maximum compute capacity of CPUs on every systems. This should
help to simplify some code and remove fields like rd->max_cpu_capacity
Furthermore, arch_scale_cpu_capacity() is used with a NULL sd in several other
places in the code when it wants the capacity of a CPUs to scale
some metrics like in pelt, deadline or schedutil. In case on SMT, the value
returned is not the capacity of SMT CPUs but default SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE.
So remove it.

The 'prefer sibling' sched_domain flag is intended to encourage
spreading tasks to sibling sched_domain to take advantage of more caches
and core for SMT systems. It has recently been changed to be on all
non-NUMA topology level. However, spreading across domains with CPU
capacity asymmetry isn't desirable, e.g. spreading from high capacity to
low capacity CPUs even if high capacity CPUs aren't overutilized might
give access to more cache but the CPU will be slower and possibly lead
to worse overall throughput.
To prevent this, we need to remove SD_PREFER_SIBLING on the sched_domain
level immediately below SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY.

The current sg->min_capacity tracks the lowest per-CPU compute capacity
available in the sched_group when rt/irq pressure is taken into account.
Minimum capacity isn't the ideal metric for tracking if a sched_group
needs offloading to another sched_group for some scenarios, e.g. a
sched_group with multiple CPUs if only one is under heavy pressure.
Tracking maximum capacity isn't perfect either but a better choice for
some situations as it indicates that the sched_group definitely compute
capacity constrained either due to rt/irq pressure on all CPUs or
asymmetric CPU capacities (e.g. big.LITTLE).

The SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY sched_domain flag is supposed to mark the
sched_domain in the hierarchy where all CPU capacities are visible for
any CPU's point of view on asymmetric CPU capacity systems. The
scheduler can then take to take capacity asymmetry into account when
balancing at this level. It also serves as an indicator for how wide
task placement heuristics have to search to consider all available CPU
capacities as asymmetric systems might often appear symmetric at
smallest level(s) of the sched_domain hierarchy.
The flag has been around for while but so far only been set by
out-of-tree code in Android kernels. One solution is to let each
architecture provide the flag through a custom sched_domain topology
array and associated mask and flag functions. However,
SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY is special in the sense that it depends on the
capacity and presence of all CPUs in the system, i.e. when hotplugging
all CPUs out except those with one particular CPU capacity the flag
should disappear even if the sched_domains don't collapse. Similarly,
the flag is affected by cpusets where load-balancing is turned off.
Detecting when the flags should be set therefore depends not only on
topology information but also the cpuset configuration and hotplug
state. The arch code doesn't have easy access to the cpuset
configuration.
Instead, this patch implements the flag detection in generic code where
cpusets and hotplug state is already taken care of. All the arch is
responsible for is to implement arch_scale_cpu_capacity() and force a
full rebuild of the sched_domain hierarchy if capacities are updated,
e.g. later in the boot process when cpufreq has initialized.

With the following commit:
051f3ca02e46 ("sched/topology: Introduce NUMA identity node sched domain")
the scheduler introduced a new NUMA level. However this leads to the NUMA topology
on 2 node systems to not be marked as NUMA_DIRECT anymore.
After this commit, it gets reported as NUMA_BACKPLANE, because
sched_domains_numa_level is now 2 on 2 node systems.
Fix this by allowing setting systems that have up to 2 NUMA levels as
NUMA_DIRECT.
While here remove code that assumes that level can be 0.

The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:
kmalloc(a * b, gfp)
with:
kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)
as well as handling cases of:
kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)
with:
kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)
as it's slightly less ugly than:
kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)
This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:
kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)
though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.
Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.
The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().
The Coccinelle script used for this was:

When scheduler debug is enabled, building scheduling domains outputs
information about how the domains are laid out and to which root domain
each CPU (or sets of CPUs) belongs, e.g.:
CPU0 attaching sched-domain(s):
domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
groups: 0:{ span=0 }, 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }
CPU1 attaching sched-domain(s):
domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
groups: 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }, 0:{ span=0 }
[...]
span: 0-5 (max cpu_capacity = 1024)
The fact that latest line refers to CPUs 0-5 root domain doesn't however look
immediately obvious to me: one might wonder why span 0-5 is reported "again".
Make it more clear by adding "root domain" to it, as to end with the
following:
CPU0 attaching sched-domain(s):
domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
groups: 0:{ span=0 }, 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }
CPU1 attaching sched-domain(s):
domain-0: span=0-5 level=MC
groups: 1:{ span=1 }, 2:{ span=2 }, 3:{ span=3 }, 4:{ span=4 }, 5:{ span=5 }, 0:{ span=0 }
[...]
root domain span: 0-5 (max cpu_capacity = 1024)

Do the following cleanups and simplifications:
- sched/sched.h already includes <asm/paravirt.h>, so no need to
include it in sched/core.c again.
- order the <linux/sched/*.h> headers alphabetically
- add all <linux/sched/*.h> headers to kernel/sched/sched.h
- remove all unnecessary includes from the .c files that
are already included in kernel/sched/sched.h.
Finally, make all scheduler .c files use a single common header:
#include "sched.h"
... which now contains a union of the relied upon headers.
This makes the various .c files easier to read and easier to handle.

A good number of small style inconsistencies have accumulated
in the scheduler core, so do a pass over them to harmonize
all these details:
- fix speling in comments,
- use curly braces for multi-line statements,
- remove unnecessary parentheses from integer literals,
- capitalize consistently,
- remove stray newlines,
- add comments where necessary,
- remove invalid/unnecessary comments,
- align structure definitions and other data types vertically,
- add missing newlines for increased readability,
- fix vertical tabulation where it's misaligned,
- harmonize preprocessor conditional block labeling
and vertical alignment,
- remove line-breaks where they uglify the code,
- add newline after local variable definitions,
No change in functionality:

When issuing an IPI RT push, where an IPI is sent to each CPU that has more
than one RT task scheduled on it, it references the root domain's rto_mask,
that contains all the CPUs within the root domain that has more than one RT
task in the runable state. The problem is, after the IPIs are initiated, the
rq->lock is released. This means that the root domain that is associated to
the run queue could be freed while the IPIs are going around.
Add a sched_get_rd() and a sched_put_rd() that will increment and decrement
the root domain's ref count respectively. This way when initiating the IPIs,
the scheduler will up the root domain's ref count before releasing the
rq->lock, ensuring that the root domain does not go away until the IPI round
is complete.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

!CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK
cpulist_parse() uses nr_cpumask_bits as a limit to parse the
passed buffer from kernel commandline. What nr_cpumask_bits
represents varies depending upon the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK option:
- If CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n, then nr_cpumask_bits is the same as
NR_CPUS, which might not represent the # of CPUs that really exist
(default 64). So, there's a chance of a gap between nr_cpu_ids
and NR_CPUS, which ultimately lead towards invalid cpulist_parse()
operation. For example, if isolcpus=9 is passed on an 8 cpu
system (CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n) it doesn't show the error
that it's supposed to.
This patch fixes this bug by finding the last CPU of the passed
isolcpus= list and checking it against nr_cpu_ids.
It also fixes the error message where the nr_cpu_ids should be
nr_cpu_ids-1, since CPU numbering starts from 0.

When a CPU lowers its priority (schedules out a high priority task for a
lower priority one), a check is made to see if any other CPU has overloaded
RT tasks (more than one). It checks the rto_mask to determine this and if so
it will request to pull one of those tasks to itself if the non running RT
task is of higher priority than the new priority of the next task to run on
the current CPU.
When we deal with large number of CPUs, the original pull logic suffered
from large lock contention on a single CPU run queue, which caused a huge
latency across all CPUs. This was caused by only having one CPU having
overloaded RT tasks and a bunch of other CPUs lowering their priority. To
solve this issue, commit:
