8c34ab1910 cpufreq / sched: SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT flag to indicate iowait condition
Testing indicates that it is possible to improve performace
significantly without increasing energy consumption too much by
teaching cpufreq governors to bump up the CPU performance level if
the in_iowait flag is set for the task in enqueue_task_fair().

For this purpose, define a new cpufreq_update_util() flag
SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT and modify enqueue_task_fair() to pass that
flag to cpufreq_update_util() in the in_iowait case.  That generally
requires cpufreq_update_util() to be called directly from there,
because update_load_avg() may not be invoked in that case.

20e1d4863b sched/debug: Rename 'schedstat_val()' -> 'schedstat_val_or_zero()'
The schedstat_val() macro's behavior is kind of surprising: when
schedstat is runtime disabled, it returns zero.  Rename it to
schedstat_val_or_zero().

There's also a need for a similar macro which doesn't have the 'if
(schedstat_enable())' check, to avoid doing the check twice.  Create a
new 'schedstat_val()' macro for that.

ae92882e56 sched/debug: Clean up schedstat macros
The schedstat_*() macros are inconsistent: most of them take a pointer
and a field which the macro combines, whereas schedstat_set() takes the
already combined ptr->field.

The already combined ptr->field argument is actually more intuitive and
easier to use, and there's no reason to require the user to split the
variable up, so convert the macros to use the combined argument.

61c7aca695 sched/deadline: Fix the intention to re-evalute tick dependency for offline CPU
The dl task will be replenished after dl task timer fire and start a
new period. It will be enqueued and to re-evaluate its dependency on
the tick in order to restart it. However, if the CPU is hot-unplugged,
irq_work_queue will splash since the target CPU is offline.

As a result we get:

    WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 0 at kernel/irq_work.c:69 irq_work_queue_on+0xad/0xe0
    Call Trace:
     dump_stack+0x99/0xd0
     __warn+0xd1/0xf0
     warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20
     irq_work_queue_on+0xad/0xe0

     tick_nohz_dep_set_cpu+0x74/0xb0
     enqueue_task_dl+0x226/0x480
     activate_task+0x5c/0xa0
     dl_task_timer+0x19b/0x2c0
     ? push_dl_task.part.31+0x190/0x190

This can be triggered by hot-unplugging the full dynticks CPU which dl
task is running on.

We enqueue the dl task on the offline CPU, because we need to do
replenish for start_dl_timer(). So, as Juri pointed out, we would
need to do is calling replenish_dl_entity() directly, instead of
enqueue_task_dl(). pi_se shouldn't be a problem as the task shouldn't
be boosted if it was throttled.

This patch fixes it by avoiding the whole enqueue+dequeue+enqueue story, by
first migrating (set_task_cpu()) and then doing 1 enqueue.

efca03ecbe schedcore: Remove duplicated init_task's preempt_notifiers init

1) sched_init()

2) sched_init()
   -> init_idle(current,) <--- current task is init_task at this time
    -> __sched_fork(,current)

I think the first one is unnecessary, so remove it.

2665621506 sched/fair: Fix load_above_capacity fixed point arithmetic width
Since commit:

  2159197d66 ("sched/core: Enable increased load resolution on 64-bit kernels")

we now have two different fixed point units for load.

load_above_capacity has to have 10 bits fixed point unit like PELT,
whereas NICE_0_LOAD has 20 bit fixed point unit on 64-bit kernels.

Fix this by scaling down NICE_0_LOAD when multiplying
load_above_capacity with it.

8e1bc301aa sched/deadline: Make CPU heap faster avoiding real swaps on heapify
This change goes from heapify() ops done by swapping with parent/child
so that the item to fix moves along, to heapify() ops done by just
pulling the parent/child chain by 1 pos, then storing the item to fix
just at the end. On a non-trivial heapify(), this performs roughly half
stores wrt swaps.

This has been measured to achieve up to 10% of speed-up for cpudl_set()
calls, with a randomly generated workload of 1K,10K,100K random heap
insertions and deletions (75% cpudl_set() calls with is_valid=1 and
25% with is_valid=0), and randomly generated cpu IDs, with up to 256
CPUs, as measured on an Intel Core2 Duo.

135e8c9250 sched/core: Fix a race between try_to_wake_up() and a woken up task
The origin of the issue I've seen is related to
a missing memory barrier between check for task->state and
the check for task->on_rq.

The task being woken up is already awake from a schedule()
and is doing the following:

	do {
		schedule()
		set_current_state(TASK_(UN)INTERRUPTIBLE);
	} while (!cond);

The waker, actually gets stuck doing the following in
try_to_wake_up():

	while (p->on_cpu)
		cpu_relax();

Analysis:

The instance I've seen involves the following race:

 CPU1					CPU2

 while () {
   if (cond)
     break;
   do {
     schedule();
     set_current_state(TASK_UN..)
   } while (!cond);
					wakeup_routine()
					  spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock)
   raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock)	  wake_up_process()
 }					  try_to_wake_up()
 set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING);	  ..
 list_del(&waiter.list);

CPU2 wakes up CPU1, but before it can get the wait_lock and set
current state to TASK_RUNNING the following occurs:

 CPU3
 wakeup_routine()
 raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock)
 if (!list_empty)
   wake_up_process()
   try_to_wake_up()
   raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock)
   ..
   if (p->on_rq && ttwu_wakeup())
   ..
   while (p->on_cpu)
     cpu_relax()
   ..

CPU3 tries to wake up the task on CPU1 again since it finds
it on the wait_queue, CPU1 is spinning on wait_lock, but immediately
after CPU2, CPU3 got it.

CPU3 checks the state of p on CPU1, it is TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and
the task is spinning on the wait_lock. Interestingly since p->on_rq
is checked under pi_lock, I've noticed that try_to_wake_up() finds
p->on_rq to be 0. This was the most confusing bit of the analysis,
but p->on_rq is changed under runqueue lock, rq_lock, the p->on_rq
check is not reliable without this fix IMHO. The race is visible
(based on the analysis) only when ttwu_queue() does a remote wakeup
via ttwu_queue_remote. In which case the p->on_rq change is not
done uder the pi_lock.

The result is that after a while the entire system locks up on
the raw_spin_irqlock_save(wait_lock) and the holder spins infintely

Reproduction of the issue:

The issue can be reproduced after a long run on my system with 80
threads and having to tweak available memory to very low and running
memory stress-ng mmapfork test. It usually takes a long time to
reproduce. I am trying to work on a test case that can reproduce
the issue faster, but thats work in progress. I am still testing the
changes on my still in a loop and the tests seem OK thus far.

Big thanks to Benjamin and Nick for helping debug this as well.
Ben helped catch the missing barrier, Nick caught every missing
bit in my theory.

8314bc83f6 cpufreq / sched: ignore SMT when determining max cpu capacity
PELT does not consider SMT when scaling its utilization values via
arch_scale_cpu_capacity(). The value in rq->cpu_capacity_orig does
take SMT into consideration though and therefore may be smaller than
the utilization reported by PELT.

On an Intel i7-3630QM for example rq->cpu_capacity_orig is 589 but
util_avg scales up to 1024. This means that a 50% utilized CPU will show
up in schedutil as ~86% busy.

Fix this by using the same CPU scaling value in schedutil as that which
is used by PELT.

However, in this case, the wakeup is redundant, because the timer
migration will reprogram timer hardware as needed.  Note that the fact
that preemption is disabled does not avoid the splat, as the offline
operation has already passed both the synchronize_sched() and the
stop_machine() that would be blocked by disabled preemption.

This commit therefore modifies wake_up_nohz_cpu() to avoid attempting
to wake up offline CPUs.  It also adds a comment stating that the
caller must tolerate lost wakeups when the target CPU is going offline,
and suggesting the CPU_DEAD notifier as a recovery mechanism.

a1eb1411b4 sched/cputime: Improve scalability by not accounting thread group tasks pending runtime
Commit:

  d670ec1317 ("posix-cpu-timers: Cure SMP wobbles")

started accounting thread group tasks pending runtime in thread_group_cputime().

Another commit:

  6e998916df ("sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency")

updated scheduler runtime statistics (call update_curr()) when reading task pending
runtime. Those changes cause bad performance of SYS_times() and
SYS_clock_gettimes(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID) syscalls, especially on
larger systems with many CPUs.

While we would like to have cpuclock monotonicity kept i.e. have
problems fixed by above commits stay fixed, we also would like to have
good performance.

However when we notice that change from commit d670ec1317 is not
longer needed to solve problem addressed by that commit, because of
change from the second commit 6e998916df, we can get room for
optimization. Since we update task while reading it's pending runtime
in task_sched_runtime(), clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID) will
see updated values and on testcase from d670ec1317 process cpuclock
will not be smaller than thread cpuclock.

I tested the patch on testcases from commits d670ec1317,
6e998916df and some other cpuclock/cputimers testcases and
did not found cpuclock monotonicity problems or other malfunction.

This patch has the drawback that we will not provide thread group cputime
up-to-date to the last moment. For example when arming cputime timer,
we will arm it with possibly a bit outdated values and that timer will
trigger earlier compared to behaviour without the patch. However that
was the behaviour before d670ec1317 commit (kernel v3.1) so it's
unlikely to affect applications.

Patch improves related syscall performance, as measured by Giovanni's
benchmarks described in commit:

  6075620b05 ("sched/cputime: Mitigate performance regression in times()/clock_gettime()")

The benchmark results are:

3273163c67 sched/fair: Let asymmetric CPU configurations balance at wake-up
Currently, SD_WAKE_AFFINE always takes priority over wakeup balancing if
SD_BALANCE_WAKE is set on the sched_domains. For asymmetric
configurations SD_WAKE_AFFINE is only desirable if the waking task's
compute demand (utilization) is suitable for the waking CPU and the
previous CPU, and all CPUs within their respective
SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES domains (sd_llc). If not, let wakeup balancing
take over (find_idlest_{group, cpu}()).

This patch makes affine wake-ups conditional on whether both the waker
CPU and the previous CPU has sufficient capacity for the waking task,
or not, assuming that the CPU capacities within an SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES
domain (sd_llc) are homogeneous.

cd92bfd3b8 sched/core: Store maximum per-CPU capacity in root domain
To be able to compare the capacity of the target CPU with the highest
available CPU capacity, store the maximum per-CPU capacity in the root
domain.

The max per-CPU capacity should be 1024 for all systems except SMT,
where the capacity is currently based on smt_gain and the number of
hardware threads and is <1024. If SMT can be brought to work with a
per-thread capacity of 1024, this patch can be dropped and replaced by a
hard-coded max capacity of 1024 (=SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE).

9ee1cda5ee sched/core: Enable SD_BALANCE_WAKE for asymmetric capacity systems
A domain with the SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag set indicate that
sched_groups at this level and below do not include CPUs of all
capacities available (e.g. group containing little-only or big-only CPUs
in big.LITTLE systems). It is therefore necessary to put in more effort
in finding an appropriate CPU at task wake-up by enabling balancing at
wake-up (SD_BALANCE_WAKE) on all lower (child) levels.

1f6e6c7cb9 sched/core: Introduce SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY sched_domain topology flag
Add a topology flag to the sched_domain hierarchy indicating the lowest
domain level where the full range of CPU capacities is represented by
the domain members for asymmetric capacity topologies (e.g. ARM
big.LITTLE).

The flag is intended to indicate that extra care should be taken when
placing tasks on CPUs and this level spans all the different types of
CPUs found in the system (no need to look further up the domain
hierarchy). This information is currently only available through
iterating through the capacities of all the CPUs at parent levels in the
sched_domain hierarchy.

  SD 2      [  0      1      2      3]  SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY

  SD 1      [  0      1] [   2      3]  !SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY

  CPU:         0      1      2      3
  capacity:  756    756   1024   1024

If the topology in the example above is duplicated to create an eight
CPU example with third sched_domain level on top (SD 3), this level
should not have the flag set (!SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY) as its two group
would both have all CPU capacities represented within them.

IIRC the distinction is that the 'normal' ones only describe topology,
while the ASYM_PACKING one also prescribes behaviour. It is odd in the
way that it doesn't only describe things.

03cbc73263 sched/cputime: Resync steal time when guest & host lose sync
Commit:

  5743021831 ("sched/cputime: Count actually elapsed irq & softirq time")

... fixed a bug but also triggered a regression:

On an i5 laptop, 4 pCPUs, 4vCPUs for one full dynticks guest, there are four
CPU hog processes(for loop) running in the guest, I hot-unplug the pCPUs
on host one by one until there is only one left, then observe CPU utilization
via 'top' in the guest, it shows:

  100% st for cpu0(housekeeping)
   75% st for other CPUs (nohz full mode)

However, w/o this commit it shows the correct 75% for all four CPUs.

When a guest is interrupted for a longer amount of time, missed clock ticks
are not redelivered later. Because of that, we should not limit the amount
of steal time accounted to the amount of time that the calling functions
think have passed.

However, the interval returned by account_other_time() is NOT rounded down
to the nearest jiffy, while the base interval in get_vtime_delta() it is
subtracted from is, so the max cputime limit is required to avoid underflow.

This patch fixes the regression by limiting the account_other_time() from
get_vtime_delta() to avoid underflow, and lets the other three call sites
(in account_other_time() and steal_account_process_time()) account however
much steal time the host told us elapsed.

And tracked it down to the case where the task simply doesn't get

Update the code to assume all rtime is utime when we lack information,
thus ensuring a task that elides the tick gets time accounted.

12bde33dbb cpufreq / sched: Pass runqueue pointer to cpufreq_update_util()
All of the callers of cpufreq_update_util() pass rq_clock(rq) to it
as the time argument and some of them check whether or not cpu_of(rq)
is equal to smp_processor_id() before calling it, so rework it to
take a runqueue pointer as the argument and move the rq_clock(rq)
evaluation into it.

Additionally, provide a wrapper checking cpu_of(rq) against
smp_processor_id() for the cpufreq_update_util() callers that
need it.

58919e83c8 cpufreq / sched: Pass flags to cpufreq_update_util()
It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just
been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util()
and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data.  However,
doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they
already take would be clumsy, so avoid it.

Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part
of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly.
This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced
with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow.

Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization
information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags
instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track
updates from the RT and DL sched classes.  Make it non-modular
too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at
large.

Next, update all of the other users of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data accordingly.

f9bcf1e0e0 sched/cputime: Fix steal time accounting
Commit:

  5743021831 ("sched/cputime: Count actually elapsed irq & softirq time")

... didn't take steal time into consideration with passing the noirqtime
kernel parameter.

As Paolo pointed out before:

| Why not? If idle=poll, for example, any time the guest is suspended (and
| thus cannot poll) does count as stolen time.

This patch fixes it by reducing steal time from idle time accounting when
the noirqtime parameter is true. The average idle time drops from 56.8%
to 54.75% for nohz idle kvm guest(noirqtime, idle=poll, four vCPUs running
on one pCPU).

4c737b41de cgroup: make cgroup_path() and friends behave in the style of strlcpy()
cgroup_path() and friends used to format the path from the end and
thus the resulting path usually didn't start at the start of the
passed in buffer.  Also, when the buffer was too small, the partial
result was truncated from the head rather than tail and there was no
way to tell how long the full path would be.  These make the functions
less robust and more awkward to use.

With recent updates to kernfs_path(), cgroup_path() and friends can be
made to behave in strlcpy() style.

* cgroup_path(), cgroup_path_ns[_locked]() and task_cgroup_path() now
  always return the length of the full path.  If buffer is too small,
  it contains nul terminated truncated output.

* All users updated accordingly.

v2: cgroup_path() usage in kernel/sched/debug.c converted.

d1c6d149cf sched/debug: Make the "Preemption disabled at ..." message more useful
This message is currently really useless since it always prints a value
that comes from the printk() we just did, e.g.:

    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.h:388
    in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 31996, name: trinity-c1
    Preemption disabled at:[<ffffffff8119db33>] down_trylock+0x13/0x80

    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/freezer.h:56
    in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 31996, name: trinity-c1
    Preemption disabled at:[<ffffffff811aaa37>] console_unlock+0x2f7/0x930

Here, both down_trylock() and console_unlock() is somewhere in the
printk() path.

We should save the value before calling printk() and use the saved value
instead. That immediately reveals the offending callsite:

    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.h:388
    in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 14971, name: trinity-c2

98b0a85780 sched/deadline: Remove useless parameter from setup_new_dl_entity()
setup_new_dl_entity() takes two parameters, but it only actually uses
one of them, under a different name, to setup a new dl_entity, after:

  2f9f3fdc928 "sched/deadline: Remove dl_new from struct sched_dl_entity"

as we currently do:

  setup_new_dl_entity(&p->dl, &p->dl)

However, before Luca's change we were doing:

  setup_new_dl_entity(dl_se, pi_se)

in update_dl_entity() for a dl_se->new entity: we were using pi_se's
parameters (the potential PI donor) for setting up a new entity.

This change removes the useless second parameter of setup_new_dl_entity().

While we are at it we also optimize things further calling setup_new_dl_
entity() only for already queued tasks, since (as pointed out by Xunlei)
we already do the very same update at tasks wakeup time anyway. By doing
so, we don't need to worry about a potential PI donor anymore, as
rt_mutex_setprio() takes care of that already for us.

772bd008cd sched/fair: Make the use of prev_cpu consistent in the wakeup path
In commit:

  ac66f54772 ("sched/numa: Introduce migrate_swap()")

select_task_rq() got a 'cpu' argument to enable overriding of prev_cpu
in special cases (NUMA task swapping).

However, the select_task_rq_fair() helper functions: wake_affine() and
select_idle_sibling(), still use task_cpu(p) directly to work out
prev_cpu, which leads to inconsistencies.

This patch passes prev_cpu (potentially overridden by NUMA code) into
the helper functions to ensure prev_cpu is indeed the same CPU
everywhere in the wakeup path.

cfs_rq->avg.load changes, this includes when update_cfs_rq_load_avg()
returns true, but {attach,detach}_entity_load_avg() themselves also
change it. This means we need to unconditionally call
update_tg_load_avg().

Also, add more comments.

6075620b05 sched/cputime: Mitigate performance regression in times()/clock_gettime()
Commit:

  6e998916df ("sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency")

fixed a problem whereby clock_nanosleep() followed by clock_gettime() could
allow a task to wake early. It addressed the problem by calling the scheduling
classes update_curr() when the cputimer starts.

Said change induced a considerable performance regression on the syscalls
times() and clock_gettimes(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID). There are some
debuggers and applications that monitor their own performance that
accidentally depend on the performance of these specific calls.

This patch mitigates the performace loss by prefetching data in the CPU
cache, as stalls due to cache misses appear to be where most time is spent
in our benchmarks.

Here are the performance gain of this patch over v4.7-rc7 on a Sandy Bridge
box with 32 logical cores and 2 NUMA nodes. The test is repeated with a
variable number of threads, from 2 to 4*num_cpus; the results are in
seconds and correspond to the average of 10 runs; the percentage gain is
computed with (before-after)/before so a positive value is an improvement
(it's faster). The improvement varies between a few percents for 5-20
threads and more than 10% for 2 or >20 threads.

pound_clock_gettime and pound_clock_gettime are two benchmarks included in
the MMTests framework. They launch a given number of threads which
repeatedly call times() or clock_gettimes(). The results above can be
reproduced with cloning MMTests from github.com and running the "poundtime"
workload:

  $ git clone https://github.com/gormanm/mmtests.git
  $ cd mmtests
  $ cp configs/config-global-dhp__workload_poundtime config
  $ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r)

The above will run "poundtime" measuring the kernel currently running on
the machine; Once a new kernel is installed and the machine rebooted,
running again

  $ cd mmtests
  $ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r)

will produce results to compare with. A comparison table will be output
with:

  $ cd mmtests/work/log
  $ ../../compare-kernels.sh

the table will contain a lot of entries; grepping for "Amean" (as in
"arithmetic mean") will give the tables presented above. The source code
for the two benchmarks is reported at the end of this changelog for
clairity.

The cache misses addressed by this patch were found using a combination of
`perf top`, `perf record` and `perf annotate`. The incriminated lines were
found to be

    struct sched_entity *curr = cfs_rq->curr;

and

    delta_exec = now - curr->exec_start;

in the function update_curr() from kernel/sched/fair.c. This patch
prefetches the data from memory just before update_curr is called in the
interested execution path.

A comparison of the total number of cycles before and after the patch
follows; the data is obtained using `perf stat -r 10 -ddd <program>`
running over the same sequence of number of threads used above (a positive
gain is an improvement):

As a final note, the following shows the evolution of performance figures
in the "poundtime" benchmark and pinpoints commit 6e998916df
("sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency") as a
major source of degradation, mostly unaddressed to this day (figures
expressed in seconds).

a23eadfae2 sched/deadline: Fix wrap-around in DL heap
Current code in cpudeadline.c has a bug in re-heapifying when adding a
new element at the end of the heap, because a deadline value of 0 is
temporarily set in the new elem, then cpudl_change_key() is called
with the actual elem deadline as param.

However, the function compares the new deadline to set with the one
previously in the elem, which is 0.  So, if current absolute deadlines
grew so much to have negative values as s64, the comparison in
cpudl_change_key() makes the wrong decision.  Instead, as from
dl_time_before(), the kernel should handle correctly abs deadlines
wrap-arounds.

This patch fixes the problem with a minimally invasive change that
forces cpudl_change_key() to heapify up in this case.

6453dbdda3 Power management material for v4.8-rc1
- Rework the cpufreq governor interface to make it more straightforward
    and modify the conservative governor to avoid using transition
    notifications (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Rework the handling of frequency tables by the cpufreq core to make
    it more efficient (Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Modify the schedutil governor to reduce the number of wakeups it
    causes to occur in cases when the CPU frequency doesn't need to be
    changed (Steve Muckle, Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Fix some minor issues and clean up code in the cpufreq core and
    governors (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Add Intel Broxton support to the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas
    Pandruvada).
 
  - Fix problems related to the config TDP feature and to the validity
    of the MSR_HWP_INTERRUPT register in intel_pstate (Jan Kiszka,
    Srinivas Pandruvada).
 
  - Make intel_pstate update the cpu_frequency tracepoint even if
    the frequency doesn't change to avoid confusing powertop (Rafael
    Wysocki).
 
  - Clean up the usage of __init/__initdata in intel_pstate, mark some
    of its internal variables as __read_mostly and drop an unused
    structure element from it (Jisheng Zhang, Carsten Emde).
 
  - Clean up the usage of some duplicate MSR symbols in intel_pstate
    and turbostat (Srinivas Pandruvada).
 
  - Update/fix the powernv, s3c24xx and mvebu cpufreq drivers (Akshay
    Adiga, Viresh Kumar, Ben Dooks).
 
  - Fix a regression (introduced during the 4.5 cycle) in the
    pcc-cpufreq driver by reverting the problematic commit (Andreas
    Herrmann).
 
  - Add support for Intel Denverton to intel_idle, clean up Broxton
    support in it and make it explicitly non-modular (Jacob Pan,
    Jan Beulich, Paul Gortmaker).
 
  - Add support for Denverton and Ivy Bridge server to the Intel RAPL
    power capping driver and make it more careful about the handing
    of MSRs that may not be present (Jacob Pan, Xiaolong Wang).
 
  - Fix resume from hibernation on x86-64 by making the CPU offline
    during resume avoid using MONITOR/MWAIT in the "play dead" loop
    which may lead to an inadvertent "revival" of a "dead" CPU and
    a page fault leading to a kernel crash from it (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Make memory management during resume from hibernation more
    straightforward (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Add debug features that should help to detect problems related
    to hibernation and resume from it (Rafael Wysocki, Chen Yu).
 
  - Clean up hibernation core somewhat (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Prevent KASAN from instrumenting the hibernation core which leads
    to large numbers of false-positives from it (James Morse).
 
  - Prevent PM (hibernate and suspend) notifiers from being called
    during the cleanup phase if they have not been called during the
    corresponding preparation phase which is possible if one of the
    other notifiers returns an error at that time (Lianwei Wang).
 
  - Improve suspend-related debug printout in the tasks freezer and
    clean up suspend-related console handling (Roger Lu, Borislav
    Petkov).
 
  - Update the AnalyzeSuspend script in the kernel sources to
    version 4.2 (Todd Brandt).
 
  - Modify the generic power domains framework to make it handle
    system suspend/resume better (Ulf Hansson).
 
  - Make the runtime PM framework avoid resuming devices synchronously
    when user space changes the runtime PM settings for them and
    improve its error reporting (Rafael Wysocki, Linus Walleij).
 
  - Fix error paths in devfreq drivers (exynos, exynos-ppmu, exynos-bus)
    and in the core, make some devfreq code explicitly non-modular and

Pull power management updates from Rafael  Wysocki:
 "Again, the majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem, but
  there are no big features this time.  The cpufreq changes that stand
  out somewhat are the governor interface rework and improvements
  related to the handling of frequency tables.  Apart from those, there
  are fixes and new device/CPU IDs in drivers, cleanups and an
  improvement of the new schedutil governor.

  Next, there are some changes in the hibernation core, including a fix
  for a nasty problem related to the MONITOR/MWAIT usage by CPU offline
  during resume from hibernation, a few core improvements related to
  memory management during resume, a couple of additional debug features
  and cleanups.

  Finally, we have some fixes and cleanups in the devfreq subsystem,
  generic power domains framework improvements related to system
  suspend/resume, support for some new chips in intel_idle and in the
  power capping RAPL driver, a new version of the AnalyzeSuspend utility
  and some assorted fixes and cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Rework the cpufreq governor interface to make it more
     straightforward and modify the conservative governor to avoid using
     transition notifications (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Rework the handling of frequency tables by the cpufreq core to make
     it more efficient (Viresh Kumar).

   - Modify the schedutil governor to reduce the number of wakeups it
     causes to occur in cases when the CPU frequency doesn't need to be
     changed (Steve Muckle, Viresh Kumar).

   - Fix some minor issues and clean up code in the cpufreq core and
     governors (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).

   - Add Intel Broxton support to the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas
     Pandruvada).

   - Fix problems related to the config TDP feature and to the validity
     of the MSR_HWP_INTERRUPT register in intel_pstate (Jan Kiszka,
     Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Make intel_pstate update the cpu_frequency tracepoint even if the
     frequency doesn't change to avoid confusing powertop (Rafael
     Wysocki).

   - Clean up the usage of __init/__initdata in intel_pstate, mark some
     of its internal variables as __read_mostly and drop an unused
     structure element from it (Jisheng Zhang, Carsten Emde).

   - Clean up the usage of some duplicate MSR symbols in intel_pstate
     and turbostat (Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Update/fix the powernv, s3c24xx and mvebu cpufreq drivers (Akshay
     Adiga, Viresh Kumar, Ben Dooks).

   - Fix a regression (introduced during the 4.5 cycle) in the
     pcc-cpufreq driver by reverting the problematic commit (Andreas
     Herrmann).

   - Add support for Intel Denverton to intel_idle, clean up Broxton
     support in it and make it explicitly non-modular (Jacob Pan, Jan
     Beulich, Paul Gortmaker).

   - Add support for Denverton and Ivy Bridge server to the Intel RAPL
     power capping driver and make it more careful about the handing of
     MSRs that may not be present (Jacob Pan, Xiaolong Wang).

   - Fix resume from hibernation on x86-64 by making the CPU offline
     during resume avoid using MONITOR/MWAIT in the "play dead" loop
     which may lead to an inadvertent "revival" of a "dead" CPU and a
     page fault leading to a kernel crash from it (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Make memory management during resume from hibernation more
     straightforward (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Add debug features that should help to detect problems related to
     hibernation and resume from it (Rafael Wysocki, Chen Yu).

   - Clean up hibernation core somewhat (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Prevent KASAN from instrumenting the hibernation core which leads
     to large numbers of false-positives from it (James Morse).

   - Prevent PM (hibernate and suspend) notifiers from being called
     during the cleanup phase if they have not been called during the
     corresponding preparation phase which is possible if one of the
     other notifiers returns an error at that time (Lianwei Wang).

   - Improve suspend-related debug printout in the tasks freezer and
     clean up suspend-related console handling (Roger Lu, Borislav
     Petkov).

   - Update the AnalyzeSuspend script in the kernel sources to version
     4.2 (Todd Brandt).

   - Modify the generic power domains framework to make it handle system
     suspend/resume better (Ulf Hansson).

   - Make the runtime PM framework avoid resuming devices synchronously
     when user space changes the runtime PM settings for them and
     improve its error reporting (Rafael Wysocki, Linus Walleij).

   - Fix error paths in devfreq drivers (exynos, exynos-ppmu,
     exynos-bus) and in the core, make some devfreq code explicitly
     non-modular and change some of it into tristate (Bartlomiej
     Zolnierkiewicz, Peter Chen, Paul Gortmaker).

   - Add DT support to the generic PM clocks management code and make it
     export some more symbols (Jon Hunter, Paul Gortmaker).

   - Make the PCI PM core code slightly more robust against possible
     driver errors (Andy Shevchenko).

   - Make it possible to change DESTDIR and PREFIX in turbostat (Andy
     Shevchenko)"

5cbea46984 cpufreq: schedutil: map raw required frequency to driver frequency
The slow-path frequency transition path is relatively expensive as it
requires waking up a thread to do work. Should support be added for
remote CPU cpufreq updates that is also expensive since it requires an
IPI. These activities should be avoided if they are not necessary.

To that end, calculate the actual driver-supported frequency required by
the new utilization value in schedutil by using the recently added
cpufreq_driver_resolve_freq API. If it is the same as the previously
requested driver frequency then there is no need to continue with the
update assuming the cpu frequency limits have not changed. This will
have additional benefits should the semantics of the rate limit be
changed to apply solely to frequency transitions rather than to
frequency calculations in schedutil.

The last raw required frequency is cached. This allows the driver
frequency lookup to be skipped in the event that the new raw required
frequency matches the last one, assuming a frequency update has not been
forced due to limits changing (indicated by a next_freq value of
UINT_MAX, see sugov_should_update_freq).

Vtime generic irqtime accounting has been removed but there are a few
remnants to clean up:

* The vtime_accounting_cpu_enabled() check in irq entry was only used
  by CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN. We can safely remove it.

* Without the vtime_accounting_cpu_enabled(), we no longer need to
  have a vtime_common_account_irq_enter() indirect function.

* Move vtime_account_irq_enter() implementation under
  CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE which is the last user.

* The vtime_account_user() call was only used on irq entry for
  CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN. We can remove that too.

b58c358405 sched/cputime: Replace VTIME_GEN irq time code with IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING code
The CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN irq time tracking code does not
appear to currently work right.

On CPUs without nohz_full=, only tick based irq time sampling is
done, which breaks down when dealing with a nohz_idle CPU.

On firewalls and similar systems, no ticks may happen on a CPU for a
while, and the irq time spent may never get accounted properly. This
can cause issues with capacity planning and power saving, which use
the CPU statistics as inputs in decision making.

Remove the VTIME_GEN vtime irq time code, and replace it with the
IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING code, when selected as a config option by the user.

5743021831 sched/cputime: Count actually elapsed irq & softirq time
Currently, if there was any irq or softirq time during 'ticks'
jiffies, the entire period will be accounted as irq or softirq
time.

This is inaccurate if only a subset of the time was actually spent
handling irqs, and could conceivably mis-count all of the ticks during
a period as irq time, when there was some irq and some softirq time.

This can actually happen when irqtime_account_process_tick is called
from account_idle_ticks, which can pass a larger number of ticks down
all at once.

Fix this by changing irqtime_account_hi_update(), irqtime_account_si_update(),
and steal_account_process_ticks() to work with cputime_t time units, and
return the amount of time spent in each mode.

Rename steal_account_process_ticks() to steal_account_process_time(), to
reflect that time is now accounted in cputime_t, instead of ticks.

Additionally, have irqtime_account_process_tick() take into account how
much time was spent in each of steal, irq, and softirq time.

The latter could help improve the accuracy of cputime
accounting when returning from idle on a NO_HZ_IDLE CPU.

Properly accounting how much time was spent in hardirq and
softirq time will also allow the NO_HZ_FULL code to re-use
these same functions for hardirq and softirq accounting.

748c7201e6 sched/core: Panic on scheduling while atomic bugs if kernel.panic_on_warn is set
Currently, a schedule while atomic error prints the stack trace to the
kernel log and the system continue running.

Although it is possible to collect the kernel log messages and analyze
it, often more information are needed. Furthermore, keep the system
running is not always the best choice. For example, when the preempt
count underflows the system will not stop to complain about scheduling
while atomic, so the kernel log can wrap around overwriting the first
stack trace, tuning the analysis even more challenging.

This patch uses the kernel.panic_on_warn sysctl to help out on these
more complex situations.

When kernel.panic_on_warn is set to 1, the kernel will panic() in the
schedule while atomic detection.

The default value of the sysctl is 0, maintaining the current behavior.

 - We can get CPU usage in user and kernel mode via cpuacct.stat,
   but we can't get detailed data about each CPU.

 - We can get each CPU's kernel mode usage in cpuacct.usage_percpu_sys,
   but we can't get user mode usage data at the same time.

This patch introduces cpuacct.usage_all, to show all detailed CPU
accounting data together:

 # cat cpuacct.usage_all

In cpuacct_stats_show() we currently we have copies of similar code,
for each cpustat(system/user) variant.

Use a loop instead to consolidate the code. This will also work better
if we extend the CPUACCT_STAT_NSTATS type.

ecb23dc6f2 xen: add steal_clock support on x86
The pv_time_ops structure contains a function pointer for the
"steal_clock" functionality used only by KVM and Xen on ARM. Xen on x86
uses its own mechanism to account for the "stolen" time a thread wasn't
able to run due to hypervisor scheduling.

Add support in Xen arch independent time handling for this feature by
moving it out of the arm arch into drivers/xen and remove the x86 Xen
hack.

All this code is still ran from css_alloc() so css_online() isn't in

3d30544f02 sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixes
One additional 'rule' for using update_cfs_rq_load_avg() is that one
should call update_tg_load_avg() if it returns true.

Add a bunch of comments to hopefully clarify some of the rules:

 o  You need to update cfs_rq _before_ any entity attach/detach,
    this is important, because while for mathmatical consisency this
    isn't strictly needed, it is required for the physical
    interpretation of the model, you attach/detach _now_.

 o  When you modify the cfs_rq avg, you have to then call
    update_tg_load_avg() in order to propagate changes upwards.

 o  (Fair) entities are always attached, switched_{to,from}_fair()
    deal with !fair. This directly follows from the definition of the
    cfs_rq averages, namely that they are a direct sum of all
    (runnable or blocked) entities on that rq.

It is the second rule that this patch enforces, but it adds comments
pertaining to all of them.

7dc603c902 sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new tasks
Vincent and Yuyang found another few scenarios in which entity
tracking goes wobbly.

The scenarios are basically due to the fact that new tasks are not
immediately attached and thereby differ from the normal situation -- a
task is always attached to a cfs_rq load average (such that it
includes its blocked contribution) and are explicitly
detached/attached on migration to another cfs_rq.

Scenario 1: switch to fair class

  p->sched_class = fair_class;
  if (queued)
    enqueue_task(p);
      ...
        enqueue_entity()
	  enqueue_entity_load_avg()
	    migrated = !sa->last_update_time (true)
	    if (migrated)
	      attach_entity_load_avg()
  check_class_changed()
    switched_from() (!fair)
    switched_to()   (fair)
      switched_to_fair()
        attach_entity_load_avg()

If @p is a new task that hasn't been fair before, it will have
!last_update_time and, per the above, end up in
attach_entity_load_avg() _twice_.

Scenario 2: change between cgroups

  sched_move_group(p)
    if (queued)
      dequeue_task()
    task_move_group_fair()
      detach_task_cfs_rq()
        detach_entity_load_avg()
      set_task_rq()
      attach_task_cfs_rq()
        attach_entity_load_avg()
    if (queued)
      enqueue_task();
        ...
          enqueue_entity()
	    enqueue_entity_load_avg()
	      migrated = !sa->last_update_time (true)
	      if (migrated)
	        attach_entity_load_avg()

Similar as with scenario 1, if @p is a new task, it will have
!load_update_time and we'll end up in attach_entity_load_avg()
_twice_.

Furthermore, notice how we do a detach_entity_load_avg() on something
that wasn't attached to begin with.

As stated above; the problem is that the new task isn't yet attached
to the load tracking and thereby violates the invariant assumption.

This patch remedies this by ensuring a new task is indeed properly
attached to the load tracking on creation, through
post_init_entity_util_avg().

Of course, this isn't entirely as straightforward as one might think,
since the task is hashed before we call wake_up_new_task() and thus
can be poked at. We avoid this by adding TASK_NEW and teaching
cpu_cgroup_can_attach() to refuse such tasks.

ea86cb4b76 sched/cgroup: Fix cpu_cgroup_fork() handling
A new fair task is detached and attached from/to task_group with:

  cgroup_post_fork()
    ss->fork(child) := cpu_cgroup_fork()
      sched_move_task()
        task_move_group_fair()

Which is wrong, because at this point in fork() the task isn't fully
initialized and it cannot 'move' to another group, because its not
attached to any group as yet.

In fact, cpu_cgroup_fork() needs a small part of sched_move_task() so we
can just call this small part directly instead sched_move_task(). And
the task doesn't really migrate because it is not yet attached so we
need the following sequence:

  do_fork()
    sched_fork()
      __set_task_cpu()

    cgroup_post_fork()
      set_task_rq() # set task group and runqueue

    wake_up_new_task()
      select_task_rq() can select a new cpu
      __set_task_cpu
      post_init_entity_util_avg
        attach_task_cfs_rq()
      activate_task
        enqueue_task

This patch makes that happen.

010114739d sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new groups
Vincent reported that when a new task is moved into a new cgroup it
gets attached twice to the load tracking:

  sched_move_task()
    task_move_group_fair()
      detach_task_cfs_rq()
      set_task_rq()
      attach_task_cfs_rq()
        attach_entity_load_avg()
          se->avg.last_load_update = cfs_rq->avg.last_load_update // == 0

  enqueue_entity()
    enqueue_entity_load_avg()
      update_cfs_rq_load_avg()
        now = clock()
        __update_load_avg(&cfs_rq->avg)
          cfs_rq->avg.last_load_update = now
          // ages load/util for: now - 0, load/util -> 0
      if (migrated)
        attach_entity_load_avg()
          se->avg.last_load_update = cfs_rq->avg.last_load_update; // now != 0

The problem is that we don't update cfs_rq load_avg before all
entity attach/detach operations. Only enqueue_task() and migrate_task()
do this.

By fixing this, the above will not happen, because the
sched_move_task() attach will have updated cfs_rq's last_load_update
time before attach, and in turn the attach will have set the entity's
last_load_update stamp.

Note that there is a further problem with sched_move_task() calling
detach on a task that hasn't yet been attached; this will be taken
care of in a subsequent patch.

e210bffd39 sched/fair: Fix and optimize the fork() path
The task_fork_fair() callback already calls __set_task_cpu() and takes
rq->lock.

If we move the sched_class::task_fork callback in sched_fork() under
the existing p->pi_lock, right after its set_task_cpu() call, we can
avoid doing two such calls and omit the IRQ disabling on the rq->lock.

Change to __set_task_cpu() to skip the migration bits, this is a new
task, not a migration. Similarly, make wake_up_new_task() use
__set_task_cpu() for the same reason, the task hasn't actually
migrated as it hasn't ever ran.

This cures the problem of calling migrate_task_rq_fair(), which does
remove_entity_from_load_avg() on tasks that have never been added to
the load avg to begin with.

This bug would result in transiently messed up load_avg values, averaged
out after a few dozen milliseconds. This is probably the reason why
this bug was not found for such a long time.

ea1dc6fc62 sched/fair: Fix calc_cfs_shares() fixed point arithmetics width confusion
Commit:

  fde7d22e01 ("sched/fair: Fix overly small weight for interactive group entities")

did something non-obvious but also did it buggy yet latent.

The problem was exposed for real by a later commit in the v4.7 merge window:

  2159197d66 ("sched/core: Enable increased load resolution on 64-bit kernels")

... after which tg->load_avg and cfs_rq->load.weight had different
units (10 bit fixed point and 20 bit fixed point resp.).

Add a comment to explain the use of cfs_rq->load.weight over the
'natural' cfs_rq->avg.load_avg and add scale_load_down() to correct
for the difference in unit.

Since this is (now, as per a previous commit) the only user of
calc_tg_weight(), collapse it.

The effects of this bug should be randomly inconsistent SMP-balancing
of cgroups workloads.

7dd4912594 sched/fair: Fix effective_load() to consistently use smoothed load
Starting with the following commit:

  fde7d22e01 ("sched/fair: Fix overly small weight for interactive group entities")

calc_tg_weight() doesn't compute the right value as expected by effective_load().

The difference is in the 'correction' term. In order to ensure \Sum
rw_j >= rw_i we cannot use tg->load_avg directly, since that might be
lagging a correction on the current cfs_rq->avg.load_avg value.
Therefore we use tg->load_avg - cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib +
cfs_rq->avg.load_avg.

Now, per the referenced commit, calc_tg_weight() doesn't use
cfs_rq->avg.load_avg, as is later used in @w, but uses
cfs_rq->load.weight instead.

So stop using calc_tg_weight() and do it explicitly.

The effects of this bug are wake_affine() making randomly
poor choices in cgroup-intense workloads.

feb245e304 sched/core: Allow kthreads to fall back to online && !active cpus
During CPU hotplug, CPU_ONLINE callbacks are run while the CPU is
online but not active.  A CPU_ONLINE callback may create or bind a
kthread so that its cpus_allowed mask only allows the CPU which is
being brought online.  The kthread may start executing before the CPU
is made active and can end up in select_fallback_rq().

In such cases, the expected behavior is selecting the CPU which is
coming online; however, because select_fallback_rq() only chooses from
active CPUs, it determines that the task doesn't have any viable CPU
in its allowed mask and ends up overriding it to cpu_possible_mask.

CPU_ONLINE callbacks should be able to put kthreads on the CPU which
is coming online.  Update select_fallback_rq() so that it follows
cpu_online() rather than cpu_active() for kthreads.

So I _should_ have looked at other unserialized users of ->load_avg,
but alas. Luckily nikbor reported a similar /0 from task_h_load() which
instantly triggered recollection of this here problem.

Aside from the intermediate value hitting memory and causing problems,
there's another problem: the underflow detection relies on the signed
bit. This reduces the effective width of the variables, IOW its
effectively the same as having these variables be of signed type.

This patch changes to a different means of unsigned underflow
detection to not rely on the signed bit. This allows the variables to
use the 'full' unsigned range. And it does so with explicit LOAD -
STORE to ensure any intermediate value will never be visible in
memory, allowing these unserialized loads.

Note: GCC generates crap code for this, might warrant a look later.

Note2: I say 'full' above, if we end up at U*_MAX we'll still explode;
       maybe we should do clamping on add too.

57675cb976 kernel/sysrq, watchdog, sched/core: Reset watchdog on all CPUs while processing sysrq-w
Lengthy output of sysrq-w may take a lot of time on slow serial console.

Currently we reset NMI-watchdog on the current CPU to avoid spurious
lockup messages. Sometimes this doesn't work since softlockup watchdog
might trigger on another CPU which is waiting for an IPI to proceed.
We reset softlockup watchdogs on all CPUs, but we do this only after
listing all tasks, and this may be too late on a busy system.

So, reset watchdogs CPUs earlier, in for_each_process_thread() loop.

The bug is caused by a deadlock where the task is trying to grab the rq

This patch adds guest steal-time support to full dynticks CPU
time accounting. After the following commit:

ff9a9b4c43 ("sched, time: Switch VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN to jiffy granularity")

... time sampling became jiffy based, even if we do the sampling from the
context tracking code, so steal_account_process_tick() can be reused
to account how many 'ticks' are stolen-time, after the last accumulation.

3d89e5478b sched/cputime: Fix prev steal time accouting during CPU hotplug
Commit:

  e9532e69b8 ("sched/cputime: Fix steal time accounting vs. CPU hotplug")

... set rq->prev_* to 0 after a CPU hotplug comes back, in order to
fix the case where (after CPU hotplug) steal time is smaller than
rq->prev_steal_time.

However, this should never happen. Steal time was only smaller because of the
KVM-specific bug fixed by the previous patch.  Worse, the previous patch
triggers a bug on CPU hot-unplug/plug operation: because
rq->prev_steal_time is cleared, all of the CPU's past steal time will be
accounted again on hot-plug.

Since the root cause has been fixed, we can just revert commit e9532e69b8.

b7fa30c9cc sched/fair: Fix post_init_entity_util_avg() serialization
Chris Wilson reported a divide by 0 at:

 post_init_entity_util_avg():

 >    725	if (cfs_rq->avg.util_avg != 0) {
 >    726		sa->util_avg  = cfs_rq->avg.util_avg * se->load.weight;
 > -> 727		sa->util_avg /= (cfs_rq->avg.load_avg + 1);
 >    728
 >    729		if (sa->util_avg > cap)
 >    730			sa->util_avg = cap;
 >    731	} else {

Which given the lack of serialization, and the code generated from
update_cfs_rq_load_avg() is entirely possible:

	if (atomic_long_read(&cfs_rq->removed_load_avg)) {
		s64 r = atomic_long_xchg(&cfs_rq->removed_load_avg, 0);
		sa->load_avg = max_t(long, sa->load_avg - r, 0);
		sa->load_sum = max_t(s64, sa->load_sum - r * LOAD_AVG_MAX, 0);
		removed_load = 1;
	}

turns into:

  ffffffff81087064:       49 8b 85 98 00 00 00    mov    0x98(%r13),%rax
  ffffffff8108706b:       48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax

  ffffffff8108707a:       49 29 45 70             sub    %rax,0x70(%r13)
  ffffffff8108707e:       4c 89 f9                mov    %r15,%rcx
  ffffffff81087081:       bb 01 00 00 00          mov    $0x1,%ebx
  ffffffff81087086:       49 83 7d 70 00          cmpq   $0x0,0x70(%r13)
  ffffffff8108708b:       49 0f 49 4d 70          cmovns 0x70(%r13),%rcx

Which you'll note ends up with 'sa->load_avg - r' in memory at
ffffffff8108707a.

By calling post_init_entity_util_avg() under rq->lock we're sure to be
fully serialized against PELT updates and cannot observe intermediate
state like this.

29d6455178 sched: panic on corrupted stack end
Until now, hitting this BUG_ON caused a recursive oops (because oops
handling involves do_exit(), which calls into the scheduler, which in
turn raises an oops), which caused stuff below the stack to be
overwritten until a panic happened (e.g.  via an oops in interrupt
context, caused by the overwritten CPU index in the thread_info).

Just panic directly.

The problem is that it tries to update the 'sched_schedstats' static key
before jump labels have been initialized.

Changing jump_label_init() to be called earlier before
parse_early_param() wouldn't fix it: it would still fail trying to
poke_text() because mm isn't yet initialized.

Instead, just create a temporary '__sched_schedstats' variable which can
be copied to the static key later during sched_init() after jump labels
have been initialized.

9c57259117 sched/debug: Fix /proc/sched_debug regression
Commit:

  cb2517653f ("sched/debug: Make schedstats a runtime tunable that is disabled by default")

... introduced a bug when CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS is enabled and the
runtime tunable is disabled (which is the default).

The wait-time, sum-exec, and sum-sleep fields are missing from the
/proc/sched_debug file in the runnable_tasks section.

Fix it with a new schedstat_val() macro which returns the field value
when schedstats is enabled and zero otherwise.  The macro works with
both SCHEDSTATS and !SCHEDSTATS.  I put the macro in stats.h since it
might end up being useful in other places.

df55f462b9 sched/idle: Optimize the generic idle loop
Currently, smp_processor_id() is used to fetch the current CPU in
cpu_idle_loop(). Every time the idle thread runs, it fetches the
current CPU using smp_processor_id().

Since the idle thread is per CPU, the current CPU is constant, so we
can lift the load out of the loop, saving execution cycles/time in the
loop.

x86-64:

Before patch (execution in loop):
	148:    0f ae e8                lfence
	14b:    65 8b 04 25 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0,%eax

	155:    49 0f a3 04 24          bt %rax,(%r12)

After patch (execution in loop):
	150:    0f ae e8                lfence
	153:    4d 0f a3 34 24          bt %r14,(%r12)

ARM64:

	168:    d5033d9f        dsb     ld

	1b4:    54000ea0        b.eq    388

Further observance on ARM64 for 4 seconds shows that cpu_idle_loop is
called 8672 times. Shifting the code will save instructions executed
in loop and eventually time as well.

1a99ae3f00 sched/fair: Fix the wrong throttled clock time for cfs_rq_clock_task()
Two minor fixes for cfs_rq_clock_task():

 1) If cfs_rq is currently being throttled, we need to subtract the cfs
    throttled clock time.

 2) Make "throttled_clock_task_time" update SMP unrelated. Now UP cases
    need it as well.
