Pull 'full dynticks' support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree from Frederic Weisbecker adds a new, (exciting! :-) core
kernel feature to the timer and scheduler subsystems: 'full dynticks',
or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y.
This feature extends the nohz variable-size timer tick feature from
idle to busy CPUs (running at most one task) as well, potentially
reducing the number of timer interrupts significantly.
This feature got motivated by real-time folks and the -rt tree, but
the general utility and motivation of full-dynticks runs wider than
that:
- HPC workloads get faster: CPUs running a single task should be able
to utilize a maximum amount of CPU power. A periodic timer tick at
HZ=1000 can cause a constant overhead of up to 1.0%. This feature
removes that overhead - and speeds up the system by 0.5%-1.0% on
typical distro configs even on modern systems.
- Real-time workload latency reduction: CPUs running critical tasks
should experience as little jitter as possible. The last remaining
source of kernel-related jitter was the periodic timer tick.
- A single task executing on a CPU is a pretty common situation,
especially with an increasing number of cores/CPUs, so this feature
helps desktop and mobile workloads as well.
The cost of the feature is mainly related to increased timer
reprogramming overhead when a CPU switches its tick period, and thus
slightly longer to-idle and from-idle latency.
Configuration-wise a third mode of operation is added to the existing
two NOHZ kconfig modes:
- CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC: [formerly !CONFIG_NO_HZ], now explicitly named
as a config option. This is the traditional Linux periodic tick
design: there's a HZ tick going on all the time, regardless of
whether a CPU is idle or not.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE: [formerly CONFIG_NO_HZ=y], this turns off the
periodic tick when a CPU enters idle mode.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL: this new mode, in addition to turning off the
tick when a CPU is idle, also slows the tick down to 1 Hz (one
timer interrupt per second) when only a single task is running on a
CPU.
The .config behavior is compatible: existing !CONFIG_NO_HZ and
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y settings get translated to the new values, without the
user having to configure anything. CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is turned off by
default.
This feature is based on a lot of infrastructure work that has been
steadily going upstream in the last 2-3 cycles: related RCU support
and non-periodic cputime support in particular is upstream already.
This tree adds the final pieces and activates the feature. The pull
request is marked RFC because:
- it's marked 64-bit only at the moment - the 32-bit support patch is
small but did not get ready in time.
- it has a number of fresh commits that came in after the merge
window. The overwhelming majority of commits are from before the
merge window, but still some aspects of the tree are fresh and so I
marked it RFC.
- it's a pretty wide-reaching feature with lots of effects - and
while the components have been in testing for some time, the full
combination is still not very widely used. That it's default-off
should reduce its regression abilities and obviously there are no
known regressions with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y enabled either.
- the feature is not completely idempotent: there is no 100%
equivalent replacement for a periodic scheduler/timer tick. In
particular there's ongoing work to map out and reduce its effects
on scheduler load-balancing and statistics. This should not impact
correctness though, there are no known regressions related to this
feature at this point.
- it's a pretty ambitious feature that with time will likely be
enabled by most Linux distros, and we'd like you to make input on
its design/implementation, if you dislike some aspect we missed.
Without flaming us to crisp! :-)
Future plans:
- there's ongoing work to reduce 1Hz to 0Hz, to essentially shut off
the periodic tick altogether when there's a single busy task on a
CPU. We'd first like 1 Hz to be exposed more widely before we go
for the 0 Hz target though.
- once we reach 0 Hz we can remove the periodic tick assumption from
nr_running>=2 as well, by essentially interrupting busy tasks only
as frequently as the sched_latency constraints require us to do -
once every 4-40 msecs, depending on nr_running.
I am personally leaning towards biting the bullet and doing this in
v3.10, like the -rt tree this effort has been going on for too long -
but the final word is up to you as usual.

help
|
|
Normally, and according to the Linux spec, anonymous memory obtained
|
|
from mmap() has it's contents cleared before it is passed to
|
|
userspace. Enabling this config option allows you to request that
|
|
mmap() skip that if it is given an MAP_UNINITIALIZED flag, thus
|
|
providing a huge performance boost. If this option is not enabled,
|
|
then the flag will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
This is taken advantage of by uClibc's malloc(), and also by
|
|
ELF-FDPIC binfmt's brk and stack allocator.
|
|
|
|
Because of the obvious security issues, this option should only be
|
|
enabled on embedded devices where you control what is run in
|
|
userspace. Since that isn't generally a problem on no-MMU systems,
|
|
it is normally safe to say Y here.

|
Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can
|
|
be inserted in the running kernel, rather than being
|
|
permanently built into the kernel. You use the "modprobe"
|
|
tool to add (and sometimes remove) them. If you say Y here,
|
|
many parts of the kernel can be built as modules (by
|
|
answering M instead of Y where indicated): this is most
|
|
useful for infrequently used options which are not required
|
|
for booting. For more information, see the man pages for
|
|
modprobe, lsmod, modinfo, insmod and rmmod.
|
|
|
|
If you say Y here, you will need to run "make
|
|
modules_install" to put the modules under /lib/modules/
|
|
where modprobe can find them (you may need to be root to do
|
|
this).
|

If unsure, say Y.

Without this option you will not be able to unload any

This option allows you to force a module to unload, even if the

|
kernel believes it is unsafe: the kernel will remove the module

without waiting for anyone to stop using it (using the -f option to

rmmod). This is mainly for kernel developers and desperate users.

Modules which contain a MODULE_VERSION get an extra "srcversion"

field inserted into their modinfo section, which contains a

sum of the source files which made it. This helps maintainers

see exactly which source was used to build a module (since
|

others sometimes change the module source without updating
|
|
the version). With this option, such a "srcversion" field
|

will be created for all modules. If unsure, say N.
