And turn it on for NUMA and MC domains. This improves
locality in balancing decisions by keeping up to
capacity amount of tasks local before looking for idle
CPUs. (and twice the capacity if SD_POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE
is set.)

Currently we use overlap to weaken the SYNC hint, but allow it to
set the hint as well.
echo NO_SYNC_WAKEUP > /debug/sched_features
echo SYNC_MORE > /debug/sched_features
preserves pipe-test behaviour without using the WF_SYNC hint.

Avoid the cache buddies from biasing the time distribution away
from fork()ers. Normally the next buddy will be the preferred
scheduling target, but this makes fork()s prefer to run the new
child, whereas we prefer to run the parent, since that will

The problem with wake_idle() is that is doesn't respect things like
cpu_power, which means it doesn't deal well with SMT nor the recent
RT interaction.
To cure this, it needs to do what sched_balance_self() does, which
leads to the possibility of merging select_task_rq_fair() and
sched_balance_self().
Modify sched_balance_self() to:
- update_shares() when walking up the domain tree,
(it only called it for the top domain, but it should
have done this anyway), which allows us to remove
this ugly bit from try_to_wake_up().
- do wake_affine() on the smallest domain that contains
both this (the waking) and the prev (the wakee) cpu for
WAKE invocations.
Then use the top-down balance steps it had to replace wake_idle().
This leads to the dissapearance of SD_WAKE_BALANCE and
SD_WAKE_IDLE_FAR, with SD_WAKE_IDLE replaced with SD_BALANCE_WAKE.
SD_WAKE_AFFINE needs SD_BALANCE_WAKE to be effective.
Touch all topology bits to replace the old with new SD flags --
platforms might need re-tuning, enabling SD_BALANCE_WAKE
conditionally on a NUMA distance seems like a good additional
feature, magny-core and small nehalem systems would want this
enabled, systems with slow interconnects would not.

Set child_runs_first default to off.
It hurts 'optimal' make -j<NR_CPUS> workloads as make jobs
get preempted by child tasks, reducing parallelism.
Note, this patch might make existing races in user
applications more prominent than before - so breakages
might be bisected to this commit.
Child-runs-first is broken on SMP to begin with, and we
already had it off briefly in v2.6.23 so most of the

A fork/exec load is usually "pass the baton", so the child
should never be placed behind the parent. With START_DEBIT we
make room for the new task, but with child_runs_first, that
room comes out of the _parent's_ hide. There's nothing to say
that the parent wasn't ahead of min_vruntime at fork() time,
which means that the "baton carrier", who is essentially the
parent in drag, can gain time and increase scheduling latencies
for waiters.
With NEW_FAIR_SLEEPERS + START_DEBIT + child_runs_first
enabled, we essentially pass the sleeper fairness off to the
child, which is fine, but if we don't base placement on the
parent's updated vruntime, we can end up compounding latency
woes if the child itself then does fork/exec. The debit
incurred at fork doesn't hurt the parent who is then going to
sleep and maybe exit, but the child who acquires the error
harms all comers.
This improves latencies of make -j<n> kernel build workloads.

Reflect "active" cpus in the rq->rd->online field, instead of
the online_map.
The motivation is that things that use the root-domain code
(such as cpupri) only care about cpus classified as "active"
anyway. By synchronizing the root-domain state with the active
map, we allow several optimizations.
For instance, we can remove an extra cpumask_and from the
scheduler hotpath by utilizing rq->rd->online (since it is now
a cached version of cpu_active_map & rq->rd->span).

Impact: fix SCHED_IDLE latency problems
OK, so we have 1 running task A (which is obviously curr and the tree is
equally obviously empty).
'A' nicely chugs along, doing its thing, carrying min_vruntime along as it
goes.
Then some whacko speed freak SCHED_IDLE task gets inserted due to SMP
balancing, which is very likely far right, in that case
update_curr
update_min_vruntime
cfs_rq->rb_leftmost := true (the crazy task sitting in a tree)
vruntime = se->vruntime
and voila, min_vruntime is waaay right of where it ought to be.
OK, so why did I write it like that to begin with...
Aah, yes.
Say we've just dequeued current
schedule
deactivate_task(prev)
dequeue_entity
update_min_vruntime
Then we'll set
vruntime = cfs_rq->min_vruntime;
we find !cfs_rq->curr, but do find someone in the tree. Then we _must_
do vruntime = se->vruntime, because
vruntime = min_vruntime(vruntime := cfs_rq->min_vruntime, se->vruntime)
will not advance vruntime, and cause lags the other way around (which we
fixed with that initial patch: 1af5f730fc1bf7c62ec9fb2d307206e18bf40a69

Prefer tasks that wake other tasks to preempt quickly. This improves
performance because more work is available sooner.
The workload that prompted this patch was a kernel build over NFS4 (for some
curious and not understood reason we had to revert commit:
18de9735300756e3ca9c361ef58409d8561dfe0d to make any progress at all)
Without this patch a make -j8 bzImage (of x86-64 defconfig) would take
3m30-ish, with this patch we're down to 2m50-ish.
psql-sysbench/mysql-sysbench show a slight improvement in peak performance as
well, tbench and vmark seemed to not care.
It is possible to improve upon the build time (to 2m20-ish) but that seriously
destroys other benchmarks (just shows that there's more room for tinkering).
Much thanks to Mike who put in a lot of effort to benchmark things and proved
a worthy opponent with a competing patch.

Impact: tweak task wakeup to save power more agressively
Preferred wakeup cpu (from a semi idle package) has been
nominated in find_busiest_group() in the previous patch. Use
this information in sched_mc_preferred_wakeup_cpu in function
wake_idle() to bias task wakeups if the following conditions
are satisfied:
- The present cpu that is trying to wakeup the process is
idle and waking the target process on this cpu will
potentially wakeup a completely idle package
- The previous cpu on which the target process ran is
also idle and hence selecting the previous cpu may
wakeup a semi idle cpu package
- The task being woken up is allowed to run in the
nominated cpu (cpu affinity and restrictions)
Basically if both the current cpu and the previous cpu on
which the task ran is idle, select the nominated cpu from semi
idle cpu package for running the new task that is waking up.
Cache hotness is considered since the actual biasing happens
in wake_idle() only if the application is cache cold.
This technique will effectively move short running bursty jobs in
a mostly idle system.
Wakeup biasing for power savings gets automatically disabled if
system utilisation increases due to the fact that the probability
of finding both this_cpu and prev_cpu idle decreases.
