[ Upstream commit 0258bdfaff5bd13c4d2383150b7097aecd6b6d82 ]
This fixes an issue where old load on a cfs_rq is not properly decayed,
resulting in strange behavior where fairness can decrease drastically.
Real workloads with equally weighted control groups have ended up
getting a respective 99% and 1%(!!) of cpu time.
When an idle task is attached to a cfs_rq by attaching a pid to a cgroup,
the old load of the task is attached to the new cfs_rq and sched_entity by
attach_entity_cfs_rq. If the task is then moved to another cpu (and
therefore cfs_rq) before being enqueued/woken up, the load will be moved
to cfs_rq->removed from the sched_entity. Such a move will happen when
enforcing a cpuset on the task (eg. via a cgroup) that force it to move.
The load will however not be removed from the task_group itself, making
it look like there is a constant load on that cfs_rq. This causes the
vruntime of tasks on other sibling cfs_rq's to increase faster than they
are supposed to; causing severe fairness issues. If no other task is
started on the given cfs_rq, and due to the cpuset it would not happen,
this load would never be properly unloaded. With this patch the load
will be properly removed inside update_blocked_averages. This also
applies to tasks moved to the fair scheduling class and moved to another
cpu, and this path will also fix that. For fork, the entity is queued
right away, so this problem does not affect that.
This applies to cases where the new process is the first in the cfs_rq,
issue introduced 3d30544f0212 ("sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixes"), and
when there has previously been load on the cgroup but the cgroup was
removed from the leaflist due to having null PELT load, indroduced
in 039ae8bcf7a5 ("sched/fair: Fix O(nr_cgroups) in the load balancing
path").
For a simple cgroup hierarchy (as seen below) with two equally weighted
groups, that in theory should get 50/50 of cpu time each, it often leads
to a load of 60/40 or 70/30.
parent/
cg-1/
cpu.weight: 100
cpuset.cpus: 1
cg-2/
cpu.weight: 100
cpuset.cpus: 1
If the hierarchy is deeper (as seen below), while keeping cg-1 and cg-2
equally weighted, they should still get a 50/50 balance of cpu time.
This however sometimes results in a balance of 10/90 or 1/99(!!) between
the task groups.
$ ps u -C stress
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
root 18568 1.1 0.0 3684 100 pts/12 R+ 13:36 0:00 stress --cpu 1

cpuset.cpus: 1
This can be reproduced by attaching an idle process to a cgroup and
moving it to a given cpuset before it wakes up. The issue is evident in
many (if not most) container runtimes, and has been reproduced
with both crun and runc (and therefore docker and all its "derivatives"),
and with both cgroup v1 and v2.

[ Upstream commit 6d2f8909a5fabb73fe2a63918117943986c39b6c ]
Util-clamp places tasks in different buckets based on their clamp values
for performance reasons. However, the size of buckets is currently
computed using a rounding division, which can lead to an off-by-one
error in some configurations.
For instance, with 20 buckets, the bucket size will be 1024/20=51. A
task with a clamp of 1024 will be mapped to bucket id 1024/51=20. Sadly,
correct indexes are in range [0,19], hence leading to an out of bound
memory access.
Clamp the bucket id to fix the issue.

commit 1139aeb1c521eb4a050920ce6c64c36c4f2a3ab7 upstream.
As of commit 966a967116e6 ("smp: Avoid using two cache lines for struct
call_single_data"), the smp code prefers 32-byte aligned call_single_data
objects for performance reasons, but the block layer includes an instance
of this structure in the main 'struct request' that is more senstive
to size than to performance here, see 4ccafe032005 ("block: unalign
call_single_data in struct request").
The result is a violation of the calling conventions that clang correctly
points out:
block/blk-mq.c:630:39: warning: passing 8-byte aligned argument to 32-byte aligned parameter 2 of 'smp_call_function_single_async' may result in an unaligned pointer access [-Walign-mismatch]
smp_call_function_single_async(cpu, &rq->csd);
It does seem that the usage of the call_single_data without cache line
alignment should still be allowed by the smp code, so just change the
function prototype so it accepts both, but leave the default alignment
unchanged for the other users. This seems better to me than adding
a local hack to shut up an otherwise correct warning in the caller.

[ Upstream commit ad789f84c9a145f8a18744c0387cec22ec51651e ]
The handling of sysrq key can be activated by echoing the key to
/proc/sysrq-trigger or via the magic key sequence typed into a terminal
that is connected to the system in some way (serial, USB or other mean).
In the former case, the handling is done in a user context. In the
latter case, it is likely to be in an interrupt context.
Currently in print_cpu() of kernel/sched/debug.c, sched_debug_lock is
taken with interrupt disabled for the whole duration of the calls to
print_*_stats() and print_rq() which could last for the quite some time
if the information dump happens on the serial console.
If the system has many cpus and the sched_debug_lock is somehow busy
(e.g. parallel sysrq-t), the system may hit a hard lockup panic
depending on the actually serial console implementation of the
system.
The purpose of sched_debug_lock is to serialize the use of the global
cgroup_path[] buffer in print_cpu(). The rests of the printk calls don't
need serialization from sched_debug_lock.
Calling printk() with interrupt disabled can still be problematic if
multiple instances are running. Allocating a stack buffer of PATH_MAX
bytes is not feasible because of the limited size of the kernel stack.
The solution implemented in this patch is to allow only one caller at a
time to use the full size group_path[], while other simultaneous callers
will have to use shorter stack buffers with the possibility of path
name truncation. A "..." suffix will be printed if truncation may have
happened. The cgroup path name is provided for informational purpose
only, so occasional path name truncation should not be a big problem.

[ Upstream commit 39a2a6eb5c9b66ea7c8055026303b3aa681b49a5 ]
Syzbot reported a handful of occurrences where an sd->nr_balance_failed can
grow to much higher values than one would expect.
A successful load_balance() resets it to 0; a failed one increments
it. Once it gets to sd->cache_nice_tries + 3, this *should* trigger an
active balance, which will either set it to sd->cache_nice_tries+1 or reset
it to 0. However, in case the to-be-active-balanced task is not allowed to
run on env->dst_cpu, then the increment is done without any further
modification.
This could then be repeated ad nauseam, and would explain the absurdly high
values reported by syzbot (86, 149). VincentG noted there is value in
letting sd->cache_nice_tries grow, so the shift itself should be
fixed. That means preventing:
"""
If the value of the right operand is negative or is greater than or equal
to the width of the promoted left operand, the behavior is undefined.
"""
Thus we need to cap the shift exponent to
BITS_PER_TYPE(typeof(lefthand)) - 1.
I had a look around for other similar cases via coccinelle:

expression E1;
expression E2;

# Dirty hack to ignore constexpr
if exp.upper() != exp:
coccilib.report.print_report(pos[0], "Possible UB shift here")
The only other match in kernel/sched is rq_clock_thermal() which employs
sched_thermal_decay_shift, and that exponent is already capped to 10, so
that one is fine.

[ Upstream commit 9d10a13d1e4c349b76f1c675a874a7f981d6d3b4 ]
psi_group_cpu->tasks, represented by the unsigned int, stores the
number of tasks that could be stalled on a psi resource(io/mem/cpu).
Decrementing these counters at zero leads to wrapping which further
leads to the psi_group_cpu->state_mask is being set with the
respective pressure state. This could result into the unnecessary time
sampling for the pressure state thus cause the spurious psi events.
This can further lead to wrong actions being taken at the user land
based on these psi events.
Though psi_bug is set under these conditions but that just for debug
purpose. Fix it by decrementing the ->tasks count only when it is
non-zero.

[ Upstream commit 0c2de3f054a59f15e01804b75a04355c48de628c ]
The current sched_slice() seems to have issues; there's two possible
things that could be improved:
- the 'nr_running' used for __sched_period() is daft when cgroups are
considered. Using the RQ wide h_nr_running seems like a much more
consistent number.
- (esp) cgroups can slice it real fine, which makes for easy
over-scheduling, ensure min_gran is what the name says.

[ Upstream commit 9bcb959d05eeb564dfc9cac13a59843a4fb2edf2 ]
During load balance, LBF_SOME_PINNED will be set if any candidate task
cannot be detached due to CPU affinity constraints. This can result in
setting env->sd->parent->sgc->group_imbalance, which can lead to a group
being classified as group_imbalanced (rather than any of the other, lower
group_type) when balancing at a higher level.
In workloads involving a single task per CPU, LBF_SOME_PINNED can often be
set due to per-CPU kthreads being the only other runnable tasks on any
given rq. This results in changing the group classification during
load-balance at higher levels when in reality there is nothing that can be
done for this affinity constraint: per-CPU kthreads, as the name implies,
don't get to move around (modulo hotplug shenanigans).
It's not as clear for userspace tasks - a task could be in an N-CPU cpuset
with N-1 offline CPUs, making it an "accidental" per-CPU task rather than
an intended one. KTHREAD_IS_PER_CPU gives us an indisputable signal which
we can leverage here to not set LBF_SOME_PINNED.
Note that the aforementioned classification to group_imbalance (when
nothing can be done) is especially problematic on big.LITTLE systems, which
have a topology the likes of:
DIE [ ]
MC [ ][ ]
0 1 2 3
L L B B
arch_scale_cpu_capacity(L) < arch_scale_cpu_capacity(B)
Here, setting LBF_SOME_PINNED due to a per-CPU kthread when balancing at MC
level on CPUs [0-1] will subsequently prevent CPUs [2-3] from classifying
the [0-1] group as group_misfit_task when balancing at DIE level. Thus, if
CPUs [0-1] are running CPU-bound (misfit) tasks, ill-timed per-CPU kthreads
can significantly delay the upgmigration of said misfit tasks. Systems
relying on ASYM_PACKING are likely to face similar issues.

[ Upstream commit b89997aa88f0b07d8a6414c908af75062103b8c9 ]
Being called for each dequeue, util_est reduces the number of its updates
by filtering out when the EWMA signal is different from the task util_avg
by less than 1%. It is a problem for a sudden util_avg ramp-up. Due to the
decay from a previous high util_avg, EWMA might now be close enough to
the new util_avg. No update would then happen while it would leave
ue.enqueued with an out-of-date value.
Taking into consideration the two util_est members, EWMA and enqueued for
the filtering, ensures, for both, an up-to-date value.
This is for now an issue only for the trace probe that might return the
stale value. Functional-wise, it isn't a problem, as the value is always
accessed through max(enqueued, ewma).
This problem has been observed using LISA's UtilConvergence:test_means on
the sd845c board.
No regression observed with Hackbench on sd845c and Perf-bench sched pipe
on hikey/hikey960.

[ Upstream commit 156ec6f42b8d300dbbf382738ff35c8bad8f4c3a ]
Hung tasks and RCU stall cases were reported on systems which were not
100% busy. Investigation of such unexpected cases (no sign of potential
starvation caused by tasks hogging the system) pointed out that the
periodic sched tick timer wasn't serviced anymore after a certain point
and that caused all machinery that depends on it (timers, RCU, etc.) to
stop working as well. This issues was however only reproducible if
HRTICK was enabled.
Looking at core dumps it was found that the rbtree of the hrtimer base
used also for the hrtick was corrupted (i.e. next as seen from the base
root and actual leftmost obtained by traversing the tree are different).
Same base is also used for periodic tick hrtimer, which might get "lost"
if the rbtree gets corrupted.
Much alike what described in commit 1f71addd34f4c ("tick/sched: Do not
mess with an enqueued hrtimer") there is a race window between
hrtimer_set_expires() in hrtick_start and hrtimer_start_expires() in
__hrtick_restart() in which the former might be operating on an already
queued hrtick hrtimer, which might lead to corruption of the base.
Use hrtick_start() (which removes the timer before enqueuing it back) to
ensure hrtick hrtimer reprogramming is entirely guarded by the base
lock, so that no race conditions can occur.

commit 43789ef3f7d61aa7bed0cb2764e588fc990c30ef upstream.
Entering RCU idle mode may cause a deferred wake up of an RCU NOCB_GP
kthread (rcuog) to be serviced.
Usually a local wake up happening while running the idle task is handled
in one of the need_resched() checks carefully placed within the idle
loop that can break to the scheduler.
Unfortunately the call to rcu_idle_enter() is already beyond the last
generic need_resched() check and we may halt the CPU with a resched
request unhandled, leaving the task hanging.
Fix this with splitting the rcuog wakeup handling from rcu_idle_enter()
and place it before the last generic need_resched() check in the idle
loop. It is then assumed that no call to call_rcu() will be performed
after that in the idle loop until the CPU is put in low power mode.

[ Upstream commit 0ae78eec8aa64e645866e75005162603a77a0f49 ]
If the task is pinned to a cpu, setting the misfit status means that
we'll unnecessarily continuously attempt to migrate the task but fail.
This continuous failure will cause the balance_interval to increase to
a high value, and eventually cause unnecessary significant delays in
balancing the system when real imbalance happens.
Caught while testing uclamp where rt-app calibration loop was pinned to
cpu 0, shortly after which we spawn another task with high util_clamp
value. The task was failing to migrate after over 40ms of runtime due to
balance_interval unnecessary expanded to a very high value from the
calibration loop.
Not done here, but it could be useful to extend the check for pinning to
verify that the affinity of the task has a cpu that fits. We could end
up in a similar situation otherwise.

not allowed. This goes back to the pre git era to commit a6efb709806c
("[PATCH] irqlock patch 2.5.27-H6") in the history tree.
Reenable interrupts and remove the misleading comment which "explains" it.

[ Upstream commit a57415f5d1e43c3a5c5d412cd85e2792d7ed9b11 ]
When change sched_rt_{runtime, period}_us, we validate that the new
settings should at least accommodate the currently allocated -dl
bandwidth:
sched_rt_handler()
--> sched_dl_bandwidth_validate()
{
new_bw = global_rt_runtime()/global_rt_period();
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
dl_b = dl_bw_of(cpu);
if (new_bw < dl_b->total_bw) <-------
ret = -EBUSY;
}
}
But under CONFIG_SMP, dl_bw is per root domain , but not per CPU,
dl_b->total_bw is the allocated bandwidth of the whole root domain.
Instead, we should compare dl_b->total_bw against "cpus*new_bw",
where 'cpus' is the number of CPUs of the root domain.
Also, below annotation(in kernel/sched/sched.h) implied implementation
only appeared in SCHED_DEADLINE v2[1], then deadline scheduler kept
evolving till got merged(v9), but the annotation remains unchanged,
meaningless and misleading, update it.
* With respect to SMP, the bandwidth is given on a per-CPU basis,
* meaning that:
* - dl_bw (< 100%) is the bandwidth of the system (group) on each CPU;
* - dl_total_bw array contains, in the i-eth element, the currently
* allocated bandwidth on the i-eth CPU.

membarrier()'s MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_SYNC_CORE is documented as
syncing the core on all sibling threads but not necessarily the calling
thread. This behavior is fundamentally buggy and cannot be used safely.
Suppose a user program has two threads. Thread A is on CPU 0 and thread B
is on CPU 1. Thread A modifies some text and calls
membarrier(MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_SYNC_CORE).
Then thread B executes the modified code. If, at any point after
membarrier() decides which CPUs to target, thread A could be preempted and
replaced by thread B on CPU 0. This could even happen on exit from the
membarrier() syscall. If this happens, thread B will end up running on CPU
0 without having synced.
In principle, this could be fixed by arranging for the scheduler to issue
sync_core_before_usermode() whenever switching between two threads in the
same mm if there is any possibility of a concurrent membarrier() call, but
this would have considerable overhead. Instead, make membarrier() sync the
calling CPU as well.
As an optimization, this avoids an extra smp_mb() in the default
barrier-only mode and an extra rseq preempt on the caller.

membarrier() does not explicitly sync_core() remote CPUs; instead, it
relies on the assumption that an IPI will result in a core sync. On x86,
this may be true in practice, but it's not architecturally reliable. In
particular, the SDM and APM do not appear to guarantee that interrupt
delivery is serializing. While IRET does serialize, IPI return can
schedule, thereby switching to another task in the same mm that was
sleeping in a syscall. The new task could then SYSRET back to usermode
without ever executing IRET.
Make this more robust by explicitly calling sync_core_before_usermode()
on remote cores. (This also helps people who search the kernel tree for
instances of sync_core() and sync_core_before_usermode() -- one might be
surprised that the core membarrier code doesn't currently show up in a
such a search.)

It seems that most RSEQ membarrier users will expect any stores done before
the membarrier() syscall to be visible to the target task(s). While this
is extremely likely to be true in practice, nothing actually guarantees it
by a strict reading of the x86 manuals. Rather than providing this
guarantee by accident and potentially causing a problem down the road, just
add an explicit barrier.

He also provided a simple reproducer creating the situation below:
So the execution order of locking steps are the following

Daniel reported a similar situation as well, by just letting ksoftirqd
run with DEADLINE (and eventually block on a mutex).
Problem is that boosted entities (Priority Inheritance) use static
DEADLINE parameters of the top priority waiter. However, there might be
cases where top waiter could be a non-DEADLINE entity that is currently
boosted by a DEADLINE entity from a different lock chain (i.e., nested
priority chains involving entities of non-DEADLINE classes). In this
case, top waiter static DEADLINE parameters could be null (initialized
to 0 at fork()) and replenish_dl_entity() would hit a BUG().
Fix this by keeping track of the original donor and using its parameters
when a task is boosted.

During fast wakeup path, scheduler always check whether local or prev
cpus are good candidates for the task before looking for other cpus in
the domain. With commit b7a331615d25 ("sched/fair: Add asymmetric CPU
capacity wakeup scan") the heterogenous system gains a dedicated path
but doesn't try to reuse prev cpu whenever possible. If the previous
cpu is idle and belong to the LLC domain, we should check it 1st
before looking for another cpu because it stays one of the best
candidate and this also stabilizes task placement on the system.
This change aligns asymmetric path behavior with symmetric one and reduces
cases where the task migrates across all cpus of the sd_asym_cpucapacity
domains at wakeup.
This change does not impact normal EAS mode but only the overloaded case or
when EAS is not used.

The cpufreq policy's frequency limits (min/max) can get changed at any
point of time, while schedutil is trying to update the next frequency.
Though the schedutil governor has necessary locking and support in place
to make sure we don't miss any of those updates, there is a corner case
where the governor will find that the CPU is already running at the
desired frequency and so may skip an update.
For example, consider that the CPU can run at 1 GHz, 1.2 GHz and 1.4 GHz
and is running at 1 GHz currently. Schedutil tries to update the
frequency to 1.2 GHz, during this time the policy limits get changed as
policy->min = 1.4 GHz. As schedutil (and cpufreq core) does clamp the
frequency at various instances, we will eventually set the frequency to
1.4 GHz, while we will save 1.2 GHz in sg_policy->next_freq.
Now lets say the policy limits get changed back at this time with
policy->min as 1 GHz. The next time schedutil is invoked by the
scheduler, we will reevaluate the next frequency (because
need_freq_update will get set due to limits change event) and lets say
we want to set the frequency to 1.2 GHz again. At this point
sugov_update_next_freq() will find the next_freq == current_freq and
will abort the update, while the CPU actually runs at 1.4 GHz.
Until now need_freq_update was used as a flag to indicate that the
policy's frequency limits have changed, and that we should consider the
new limits while reevaluating the next frequency.
This patch fixes the above mentioned issue by extending the purpose of
the need_freq_update flag. If this flag is set now, the schedutil
governor will not try to abort a frequency change even if next_freq ==
current_freq.
As similar behavior is required in the case of
CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS flag as well, need_freq_update will never be
set to false if that flag is set for the driver.
We also don't need to consider the need_freq_update flag in
sugov_update_single() anymore to handle the special case of busy CPU, as
we won't abort a frequency update anymore.

Because sugov_update_next_freq() may skip a frequency update even if
the need_freq_update flag has been set for the policy at hand, policy
limits updates may not take effect as expected.
For example, if the intel_pstate driver operates in the passive mode
with HWP enabled, it needs to update the HWP min and max limits when
the policy min and max limits change, respectively, but that may not
happen if the target frequency does not change along with the limit
at hand. In particular, if the policy min is changed first, causing
the target frequency to be adjusted to it, and the policy max limit
is changed later to the same value, the HWP max limit will not be
updated to follow it as expected, because the target frequency is
still equal to the p |
