e9ca267096 sched/debug: Adjust newlines for better alignment
Scheduler debug stats include newlines that display out of alignment
when prefixed by timestamps.  For example, the dmesg utility:

  % echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger
  % dmesg
  ...
  [   83.124251]
  runnable tasks:
   S           task   PID         tree-key  switches  prio     wait-time
  sum-exec        sum-sleep
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the same time, some syslog utilities (like rsyslog by default) don't
like the additional newlines control characters, saving lines like this
to /var/log/messages:

  Mar 16 16:02:29 localhost kernel: #012runnable tasks:#012 S           task   PID         tree-key ...
                                    ^^^^               ^^^^
Clean these up by moving newline characters to their own SEQ_printf
invocation.  This leaves the /proc/sched_debug unchanged, but brings the
entire output into alignment when prefixed:

  % echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger
  % dmesg
  ...
  [   62.410368] runnable tasks:
  [   62.410368]  S           task   PID         tree-key  switches  prio     wait-time             sum-exec        sum-sleep

and no escaped control characters from rsyslog in /var/log/messages:

a8c024cd9b sched/debug: Fix per-task line continuation for console output
When the SEQ_printf() macro prints to the console, it runs a simple
printk() without KERN_CONT "continued" line printing.  The result of
this is oddly wrapped task info, for example:

  % echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger
  % dmesg
  ...
  runnable tasks:
  ...
  [   29.608611]  I
  [   29.608613]       rcu_sched     8      3252.013846      4087   120

  [   29.608615]  0 0
  [   29.608616]  /

Modify SEQ_printf to use pr_cont() for expected one-line results:

  % echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger
  % dmesg
  ...
  runnable tasks:
  ...

7f65ea42eb sched/fair: Add util_est on top of PELT
The util_avg signal computed by PELT is too variable for some use-cases.
For example, a big task waking up after a long sleep period will have its
utilization almost completely decayed. This introduces some latency before
schedutil will be able to pick the best frequency to run a task.

The same issue can affect task placement. Indeed, since the task
utilization is already decayed at wakeup, when the task is enqueued in a
CPU, this can result in a CPU running a big task as being temporarily
represented as being almost empty. This leads to a race condition where
other tasks can be potentially allocated on a CPU which just started to run
a big task which slept for a relatively long period.

Moreover, the PELT utilization of a task can be updated every [ms], thus
making it a continuously changing value for certain longer running
tasks. This means that the instantaneous PELT utilization of a RUNNING
task is not really meaningful to properly support scheduler decisions.

For all these reasons, a more stable signal can do a better job of
representing the expected/estimated utilization of a task/cfs_rq.
Such a signal can be easily created on top of PELT by still using it as
an estimator which produces values to be aggregated on meaningful
events.

This patch adds a simple implementation of util_est, a new signal built on
top of PELT's util_avg where:

    util_est(task) = max(task::util_avg, f(task::util_avg@dequeue))

This allows to remember how big a task has been reported by PELT in its
previous activations via f(task::util_avg@dequeue), which is the new
_task_util_est(struct task_struct*) function added by this patch.

If a task should change its behavior and it runs longer in a new
activation, after a certain time its util_est will just track the
original PELT signal (i.e. task::util_avg).

The estimated utilization of cfs_rq is defined only for root ones.
That's because the only sensible consumer of this signal are the
scheduler and schedutil when looking for the overall CPU utilization
due to FAIR tasks.

For this reason, the estimated utilization of a root cfs_rq is simply
defined as:

    util_est(cfs_rq) = max(cfs_rq::util_avg, cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued)

where:

    cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued = sum(_task_util_est(task))
                                 for each RUNNABLE task on that root cfs_rq

It's worth noting that the estimated utilization is tracked only for
objects of interests, specifically:

 - Tasks: to better support tasks placement decisions
 - root cfs_rqs: to better support both tasks placement decisions as
                 well as frequencies selection

325ea10c08 sched/headers: Simplify and clean up header usage in the scheduler
Do the following cleanups and simplifications:

 - sched/sched.h already includes <asm/paravirt.h>, so no need to
   include it in sched/core.c again.

 - order the <linux/sched/*.h> headers alphabetically

 - add all <linux/sched/*.h> headers to kernel/sched/sched.h

 - remove all unnecessary includes from the .c files that
   are already included in kernel/sched/sched.h.

Finally, make all scheduler .c files use a single common header:

  #include "sched.h"

... which now contains a union of the relied upon headers.

This makes the various .c files easier to read and easier to handle.

97fb7a0a89 sched: Clean up and harmonize the coding style of the scheduler code base
A good number of small style inconsistencies have accumulated
in the scheduler core, so do a pass over them to harmonize
all these details:

 - fix speling in comments,

 - use curly braces for multi-line statements,

 - remove unnecessary parentheses from integer literals,

 - capitalize consistently,

 - remove stray newlines,

 - add comments where necessary,

 - remove invalid/unnecessary comments,

 - align structure definitions and other data types vertically,

 - add missing newlines for increased readability,

 - fix vertical tabulation where it's misaligned,

 - harmonize preprocessor conditional block labeling
   and vertical alignment,

 - remove line-breaks where they uglify the code,

 - add newline after local variable definitions,

No change in functionality:

1ea6c46a23 sched/fair: Propagate an effective runnable_load_avg
The load balancer uses runnable_load_avg as load indicator. For
!cgroup this is:

  runnable_load_avg = \Sum se->avg.load_avg ; where se->on_rq

That is, a direct sum of all runnable tasks on that runqueue. As
opposed to load_avg, which is a sum of all tasks on the runqueue,
which includes a blocked component.

However, in the cgroup case, this comes apart since the group entities
are always runnable, even if most of their constituent entities are
blocked.

Therefore introduce a runnable_weight which for task entities is the
same as the regular weight, but for group entities is a fraction of
the entity weight and represents the runnable part of the group
runqueue.

Then propagate this load through the PELT hierarchy to arrive at an
effective runnable load avgerage -- which we should not confuse with
the canonical runnable load average.

0e2d2aaaae sched/fair: Rewrite PELT migration propagation
When an entity migrates in (or out) of a runqueue, we need to add (or
remove) its contribution from the entire PELT hierarchy, because even
non-runnable entities are included in the load average sums.

In order to do this we have some propagation logic that updates the
PELT tree, however the way it 'propagates' the runnable (or load)
change is (more or less):

                     tg->weight * grq->avg.load_avg
  ge->avg.load_avg = ------------------------------
                               tg->load_avg

But that is the expression for ge->weight, and per the definition of
load_avg:

  ge->avg.load_avg := ge->weight * ge->avg.runnable_avg

That destroys the runnable_avg (by setting it to 1) we wanted to
propagate.

Instead directly propagate runnable_sum.

2a2f5d4e44 sched/fair: Rewrite cfs_rq->removed_*avg
Since on wakeup migration we don't hold the rq->lock for the old CPU
we cannot update its state. Instead we add the removed 'load' to an
atomic variable and have the next update on that CPU collect and
process it.

Currently we have 2 atomic variables; which already have the issue
that they can be read out-of-sync. Also, two atomic ops on a single
cacheline is already more expensive than an uncontended lock.

Since we want to add more, convert the thing over to an explicit
cacheline with a lock in.

74dc3384fc sched/debug: Use task_pid_nr_ns in /proc/$pid/sched
It appears as though the addition of the PID namespace did not update
the output code for /proc/*/sched, which resulted in it providing PIDs
that were not self-consistent with the /proc mount. This additionally
made it trivial to detect whether a process was inside &init_pid_ns from
userspace, making container detection trivial:

   https://github.com/jessfraz/amicontained

This leads to situations such as:

  % unshare -pmf
  % mount -t proc proc /proc
  % head -n1 /proc/1/sched
  head (10047, #threads: 1)

Fix this by just using task_pid_nr_ns for the output of /proc/*/sched.
All of the other uses of task_pid_nr in kernel/sched/debug.c are from a
sysctl context and thus don't need to be namespaced.

   .rt_nr_running                 : 2
   .rt_nr_migratory               : 1     <--- Like this
   .rt_throttled                  : 0
   .rt_time                       : 828.645877
   .rt_runtime                    : 1000.000000

This is useful to debug problems related to the RT/DL schedulers.

This also fixes the format of some variables, that were unsigned, rather
than signed.

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.

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.

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.

ef477183d0 sched/debug: Add deadline scheduler bandwidth ratio to /proc/sched_debug
Playing with SCHED_DEADLINE and cpusets, I found that I was unable to create
new SCHED_DEADLINE tasks, with the error of EBUSY as if the bandwidth was
already used up. I then realized there wa no way to see what bandwidth is
used by the runqueues to debug the issue.

By adding the dl_bw->bw and dl_bw->total_bw to the output of the deadline
info in /proc/sched_debug, this allows us to see what bandwidth has been
reserved and where a problem may exist.

For example, before the issue we see the ratio of the bandwidth:

 # cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us
 950000
 # cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_period_us
 1000000

  # grep dl /proc/sched_debug
  dl_rq[0]:
    .dl_nr_running                 : 0
    .dl_bw->bw                     : 996147

    .dl_bw->total_bw               : 0

    .dl_bw->total_bw               : 0

Note: (950000 / 1000000) << 20 == 996147

After I played with cpusets and hit the issue, the result is now:

    .dl_bw->total_bw               : -104857

This shows that there is definitely a problem as we should never have a
negative total bandwidth.

cb2517653f sched/debug: Make schedstats a runtime tunable that is disabled by default
schedstats is very useful during debugging and performance tuning but it
incurs overhead to calculate the stats. As such, even though it can be
disabled at build time, it is often enabled as the information is useful.

This patch adds a kernel command-line and sysctl tunable to enable or
disable schedstats on demand (when it's built in). It is disabled
by default as someone who knows they need it can also learn to enable
it when necessary.

The benefits are dependent on how scheduler-intensive the workload is.
If it is then the patch reduces the number of cycles spent calculating
the stats with a small benefit from reducing the cache footprint of the
scheduler.

These measurements were taken from a 48-core 2-socket
machine with Xeon(R) E5-2670 v3 cpus although they were also tested on a
single socket machine 8-core machine with Intel i7-3770 processors.

not a surprise that the result will depend on the CPU used.

Small improvement and similar gains were seen on the UMA machine.

The gain is small but it stands to reason that doing less work in the
scheduler is a good thing. The downside is that the lack of schedstats and
tracepoints may be surprising to experts doing performance analysis until
they find the existence of the schedstats= parameter or schedstats sysctl.
It will be automatically activated for latencytop and sleep profiling to
alleviate the problem. For tracepoints, there is a simple warning as it's
not safe to activate schedstats in the context when it's known the tracepoint
may be wanted but is unavailable.

139622343e sched/fair: Provide runnable_load_avg back to cfs_rq
The cfs_rq's load_avg is composed of runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg.
Before this series, sometimes the runnable_load_avg is used, and sometimes
the load_avg is used. Completely replacing all uses of runnable_load_avg
with load_avg may be too big a leap, i.e., the blocked_load_avg is concerned
to result in overrated load. Therefore, we get runnable_load_avg back.

The new cfs_rq's runnable_load_avg is improved to be updated with all of the
runnable sched_eneities at the same time, so the one sched_entity updated and
the others stale problem is solved.

9d89c257df sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking
The idea of runnable load average (let runnable time contribute to weight)
was proposed by Paul Turner and Ben Segall, and it is still followed by
this rewrite. This rewrite aims to solve the following issues:

1. cfs_rq's load average (namely runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg) is
   updated at the granularity of an entity at a time, which results in the
   cfs_rq's load average is stale or partially updated: at any time, only
   one entity is up to date, all other entities are effectively lagging
   behind. This is undesirable.

   To illustrate, if we have n runnable entities in the cfs_rq, as time
   elapses, they certainly become outdated:

     t0: cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_old, ..., en_old }

   and when we update:

     t1: update e1, then we have cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_old, ..., en_old }

     t2: update e2, then we have cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_new, ..., en_old }

     ...

   We solve this by combining all runnable entities' load averages together
   in cfs_rq's avg, and update the cfs_rq's avg as a whole. This is based
   on the fact that if we regard the update as a function, then:

   w * update(e) = update(w * e) and

   update(e1) + update(e2) = update(e1 + e2), then

   w1 * update(e1) + w2 * update(e2) = update(w1 * e1 + w2 * e2)

   therefore, by this rewrite, we have an entirely updated cfs_rq at the
   time we update it:

     t1: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }

     t2: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }

     ...

2. cfs_rq's load average is different between top rq->cfs_rq and other
   task_group's per CPU cfs_rqs in whether or not blocked_load_average
   contributes to the load.

   The basic idea behind runnable load average (the same for utilization)
   is that the blocked state is taken into account as opposed to only
   accounting for the currently runnable state. Therefore, the average
   should include both the runnable/running and blocked load averages.
   This rewrite does that.

   In addition, we also combine runnable/running and blocked averages
   of all entities into the cfs_rq's average, and update it together at
   once. This is based on the fact that:

     update(runnable) + update(blocked) = update(runnable + blocked)

   This significantly reduces the code as we don't need to separately
   maintain/update runnable/running load and blocked load.

3. How task_group entities' share is calculated is complex and imprecise.

   We reduce the complexity in this rewrite to allow a very simple rule:
   the task_group's load_avg is aggregated from its per CPU cfs_rqs's
   load_avgs. Then group entity's weight is simply proportional to its
   own cfs_rq's load_avg / task_group's load_avg. To illustrate,

   if a task_group has { cfs_rq1, cfs_rq2, ..., cfs_rqn }, then,

   task_group_avg = cfs_rq1_avg + cfs_rq2_avg + ... + cfs_rqn_avg, then

   cfs_rqx's entity's share = cfs_rqx_avg / task_group_avg * task_group's share

To sum up, this rewrite in principle is equivalent to the current one, but
fixes the issues described above. Turns out, it significantly reduces the
code complexity and hence increases clarity and efficiency. In addition,
the new averages are more smooth/continuous (no spurious spikes and valleys)
and updated more consistently and quickly to reflect the load dynamics.

As a result, we have less load tracking overhead, better performance,
and especially better power efficiency due to more balanced load.

397f2378f1 sched/numa: Fix numa balancing stats in /proc/pid/sched
Commit 44dba3d5d6 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use
numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way
tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted.

However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed
in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched
don't match the actual numbers.

Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task
fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too.

Also couple of more modifications are added here:

1. Format changes:

  - Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private
    and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry.

  - Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are
    displayed separately.

  - Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and
    group faults.

2. Unit changes:

  - p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of
    /proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since
    differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily
    calculated.

 "A rather largish update for everything time and timer related:

   - Cache footprint optimizations for both hrtimers and timer wheel

   - Lower the NOHZ impact on systems which have NOHZ or timer migration
     disabled at runtime.

   - Optimize run time overhead of hrtimer interrupt by making the clock
     offset updates smarter

   - hrtimer cleanups and removal of restrictions to tackle some
     problems in sched/perf

   - Some more leap second tweaks

   - Another round of changes addressing the 2038 problem

   - First step to change the internals of clock event devices by
     introducing the necessary infrastructure

   - Allow constant folding for usecs/msecs_to_jiffies()

   - The usual pile of clockevent/clocksource driver updates

  The hrtimer changes contain updates to sched, perf and x86 as they
  depend on them plus changes all over the tree to cleanup API changes

a good info to collect, add this it to /proc/<pid>/sched.

c5f3ab1c3b sched/debug: Replace vruntime with wait_sum in /proc/sched_debug
Within runnable tasks in /proc/sched_debug, vruntime is printed twice,
once as tree-key and again as exec-runtime.

Since exec-runtime isnt populated in !CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS, use this field
to print wait_sum.

33d6176eb1 sched/debug: Properly format runnable tasks in /proc/sched_debug
With !CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS, runnable tasks in /proc/sched_debug has too
many columns than required. Fix this by printing appropriate columns.

While at this, print sum_exec_runtime, since this information is
available even in !CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS case.

21f4486630 sched: Track group sched_entity usage contributions
Add usage contribution tracking for group entities. Unlike
se->avg.load_avg_contrib, se->avg.utilization_avg_contrib for group
entities is the sum of se->avg.utilization_avg_contrib for all entities on the
group runqueue.

It is _not_ influenced in any way by the task group h_load. Hence it is
representing the actual cpu usage of the group, not its intended load
contribution which may differ significantly from the utilization on
lightly utilized systems.

36ee28e45d sched: Add sched_avg::utilization_avg_contrib
Add new statistics which reflect the average time a task is running on the CPU
and the sum of these running time of the tasks on a runqueue. The latter is
named utilization_load_avg.

This patch is based on the usage metric that was proposed in the 1st
versions of the per-entity load tracking patchset by Paul Turner
<pjt@google.com> but that has be removed afterwards. This version differs from
the original one in the sense that it's not linked to task_group.

The rq's utilization_load_avg will be used to check if a rq is overloaded or
not instead of trying to compute how many tasks a group of CPUs can handle.

Rename runnable_avg_period into avg_period as it is now used with both
runnable_avg_sum and running_avg_sum.

Add some descriptions of the variables to explain their differences.

44dba3d5d6 sched: Refactor task_struct to use numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers
This patch simplifies task_struct by removing the four numa_* pointers
in the same array and replacing them with the array pointer. By doing this,
on x86_64, the size of task_struct is reduced by 3 ulong pointers (24 bytes on
x86_64).

A new parameter is added to the task_faults_idx function so that it can return
an index to the correct offset, corresponding with the old precalculated
pointers.

All of the code in sched/ that depended on task_faults_idx and numa_* was
changed in order to match the new logic.

5bd96ab6fe sched: print_rq(): Don't use tasklist_lock
read_lock_irqsave(tasklist_lock) in print_rq() looks strange. We do
not need to disable irqs, and they are already disabled by the caller.

And afaics this lock buys nothing, we can rely on rcu_read_lock().
In this case it makes sense to also move rcu_read_lock/unlock from
the caller to print_rq().
