2008-01-25sched: RT-balance, only adjust overload state when changingGregory Haskins1-3/+5
The overload set/clears were originally idempotent when this logic was first implemented. But that is no longer true due to the addition of the atomic counter and this logic was never updated to work properly with that change. So only adjust the overload state if it is actually changing to avoid getting out of sync.

2008-01-25sched: RT-balance, add new methods to sched_classSteven Rostedt1-0/+89
Dmitry Adamushko found that the current implementation of the RT balancing code left out changes to the sched_setscheduler and rt_mutex_setprio. This patch addresses this issue by adding methods to the schedule classes to handle being switched out of (switched_from) and being switched into (switched_to) a sched_class. Also a method for changing of priorities is also added (prio_changed). This patch also removes some duplicate logic between rt_mutex_setprio and sched_setscheduler.

2008-01-25sched: RT-balance, replace hooks with pre/post schedule and wakeup methodsSteven Rostedt1-10/+7
To make the main sched.c code more agnostic to the schedule classes. Instead of having specific hooks in the schedule code for the RT class balancing. They are replaced with a pre_schedule, post_schedule and task_wake_up methods. These methods may be used by any of the classes but currently, only the sched_rt class implements them.

2008-01-25sched: only balance our RT tasks within our domainGregory Haskins1-26/+31
We move the rt-overload data as the first global to per-domain reclassification. This limits the scope of overload related cache-line bouncing to stay with a specified partition instead of affecting all cpus in the system. Finally, we limit the scope of find_lowest_cpu searches to the domain instead of the entire system. Note that we would always respect domain boundaries even without this patch, but we first would scan potentially all cpus before whittling the list down. Now we can avoid looking at RQs that are out of scope, again reducing cache-line hits. Note: In some cases, task->cpus_allowed will effectively reduce our search to within our domain. However, I believe there are cases where the cpus_allowed mask may be all ones and therefore we err on the side of caution. If it can be optimized later, so be it.

2008-01-25sched: RT-balance, avoid overloadingSteven Rostedt1-4/+16
This patch changes the searching for a run queue by a waking RT task to try to pick another runqueue if the currently running task is an RT task. The reason is that RT tasks behave different than normal tasks. Preempting a normal task to run a RT task to keep its cache hot is fine, because the preempted non-RT task may wait on that same runqueue to run again unless the migration thread comes along and pulls it off. RT tasks behave differently. If one is preempted, it makes an active effort to continue to run. So by having a high priority task preempt a lower priority RT task, that lower RT task will then quickly try to run on another runqueue. This will cause that lower RT task to replace its nice hot cache (and TLB) with a completely cold one. This is for the hope that the new high priority RT task will keep its cache hot. Remeber that this high priority RT task was just woken up. So it may likely have been sleeping for several milliseconds, and will end up with a cold cache anyway. RT tasks run till they voluntarily stop, or are preempted by a higher priority task. This means that it is unlikely that the woken RT task will have a hot cache to wake up to. So pushing off a lower RT task is just killing its cache for no good reason. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-01-25sched: optimize RT affinityGregory Haskins1-12/+88
The current code base assumes a relatively flat CPU/core topology and will route RT tasks to any CPU fairly equally. In the real world, there are various toplogies and affinities that govern where a task is best suited to run with the smallest amount of overhead. NUMA and multi-core CPUs are prime examples of topologies that can impact cache performance. Fortunately, linux is already structured to represent these topologies via the sched_domains interface. So we change our RT router to consult a combination of topology and affinity policy to best place tasks during migration.

2008-01-25sched: pre-route RT tasks on wakeupGregory Haskins1-0/+19
In the original patch series that Steven Rostedt and I worked on together, we both took different approaches to low-priority wakeup path. I utilized "pre-routing" (push the task away to a less important RQ before activating) approach, while Steve utilized a "post-routing" approach. The advantage of my approach is that you avoid the overhead of a wasted activate/deactivate cycle and peripherally related burdens. The advantage of Steve's method is that it neatly solves an issue preventing a "pull" optimization from being deployed. In the end, we ended up deploying Steve's idea. But it later dawned on me that we could get the best of both worlds by deploying both ideas together, albeit slightly modified. The idea is simple: Use a "light-weight" lookup for pre-routing, since we only need to approximate a good home for the task. And we also retain the post-routing push logic to clean up any inaccuracies caused by a condition of "priority mistargeting" caused by the lightweight lookup. Most of the time, the pre-routing should work and yield lower overhead. In the cases where it doesnt, the post-router will bat cleanup.

2008-01-25sched: de-SCHED_OTHER-ize the RT pathGregory Haskins1-0/+10
The current wake-up code path tries to determine if it can optimize the wake-up to "this_cpu" by computing load calculations. The problem is that these calculations are only relevant to SCHED_OTHER tasks where load is king. For RT tasks, priority is king. So the load calculation is completely wasted bandwidth. Therefore, we create a new sched_class interface to help with pre-wakeup routing decisions and move the load calculation as a function of CFS task's class.

2008-01-25sched: add RT-balance cpu-weightGregory Haskins1-5/+45
Some RT tasks (particularly kthreads) are bound to one specific CPU. It is fairly common for two or more bound tasks to get queued up at the same time. Consider, for instance, softirq_timer and softirq_sched. A timer goes off in an ISR which schedules softirq_thread to run at RT50. Then the timer handler determines that it's time to smp-rebalance the system so it schedules softirq_sched to run. So we are in a situation where we have two RT50 tasks queued, and the system will go into rt-overload condition to request other CPUs for help. This causes two problems in the current code: 1) If a high-priority bound task and a low-priority unbounded task queue up behind the running task, we will fail to ever relocate the unbounded task because we terminate the search on the first unmovable task. 2) We spend precious futile cycles in the fast-path trying to pull overloaded tasks over. It is therefore optimial to strive to avoid the overhead all together if we can cheaply detect the condition before overload even occurs. This patch tries to achieve this optimization by utilizing the hamming weight of the task->cpus_allowed mask. A weight of 1 indicates that the task cannot be migrated. We will then utilize this information to skip non-migratable tasks and to eliminate uncessary rebalance attempts. We introduce a per-rq variable to count the number of migratable tasks that are currently running. We only go into overload if we have more than one rt task, AND at least one of them is migratable. In addition, we introduce a per-task variable to cache the cpus_allowed weight, since the hamming calculation is probably relatively expensive. We only update the cached value when the mask is updated which should be relatively infrequent, especially compared to scheduling frequency in the fast path.

2008-01-25sched: add RT task pushingSteven Rostedt1-1/+224
This patch adds an algorithm to push extra RT tasks off a run queue to other CPU runqueues. When more than one RT task is added to a run queue, this algorithm takes an assertive approach to push the RT tasks that are not running onto other run queues that have lower priority. The way this works is that the highest RT task that is not running is looked at and we examine the runqueues on the CPUS for that tasks affinity mask. We find the runqueue with the lowest prio in the CPU affinity of the picked task, and if it is lower in prio than the picked task, we push the task onto that CPU runqueue. We continue pushing RT tasks off the current runqueue until we don't push any more. The algorithm stops when the next highest RT task can't preempt any other processes on other CPUS. TODO: The algorithm may stop when there are still RT tasks that can be migrated. Specifically, if the highest non running RT task CPU affinity is restricted to CPUs that are running higher priority tasks, there may be a lower priority task queued that has an affinity with a CPU that is running a lower priority task that it could be migrated to. This patch set does not address this issue. Note: checkpatch reveals two over 80 character instances. I'm not sure that breaking them up will help visually, so I left them as is.

Commit cfb5285660aad4931b2ebbfa902ea48a37dfffa1 removed a useful feature for us, which provided a cpu accounting resource controller. This feature would be useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption. The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's original patch (Commit 62d0df64065e7c135d0002f069444fbdfc64768f), with these differences: - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for 2.6.25 after more discussions. - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler classes - Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage counter to be per-cpu - Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in kernel/sched.c) The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting information.

2007-08-24sched: optimize task_tick_rt() a bitDmitry Adamushko1-3/+8
Mitchell Erblich suggested a quality-of-implementation change to not requeue SCHED_RR tasks if there's only a single task on the runqueue, by checking for rq->nr_running == 1. provide a more efficient implementation of that, to check that particular RT priority-queue only. [ From: mingo@elte.hu ] Also first requeue the task then set need_resched - results in slightly better machine-instruction ordering. Also clean up the code a bit.
