Make it possible to specify a period (different or equal than
deadline) for -deadline tasks. Relative deadlines (D_i) are used on
task arrivals to generate new scheduling (absolute) deadlines as "d =
t + D_i", and periods (P_i) to postpone the scheduling deadlines as "d
= d + P_i" when the budget is zero.
This is in general useful to model (and schedule) tasks that have slow
activation rates (long periods), but have to be scheduled soon once
activated (short deadlines).

Introduces data structures relevant for implementing dynamic
migration of -deadline tasks and the logic for checking if
runqueues are overloaded with -deadline tasks and for choosing
where a task should migrate, when it is the case.
Adds also dynamic migrations to SCHED_DEADLINE, so that tasks can
be moved among CPUs when necessary. It is also possible to bind a
task to a (set of) CPU(s), thus restricting its capability of
migrating, or forbidding migrations at all.
The very same approach used in sched_rt is utilised:
- -deadline tasks are kept into CPU-specific runqueues,
- -deadline tasks are migrated among runqueues to achieve the
following:
* on an M-CPU system the M earliest deadline ready tasks
are always running;
* affinity/cpusets settings of all the -deadline tasks is
always respected.
Therefore, this very special form of "load balancing" is done with
an active method, i.e., the scheduler pushes or pulls tasks between
runqueues when they are woken up and/or (de)scheduled.
IOW, every time a preemption occurs, the descheduled task might be sent
to some other CPU (depending on its deadline) to continue executing
(push). On the other hand, every time a CPU becomes idle, it might pull
the second earliest deadline ready task from some other CPU.
To enforce this, a pull operation is always attempted before taking any
scheduling decision (pre_schedule()), as well as a push one after each
scheduling decision (post_schedule()). In addition, when a task arrives
or wakes up, the best CPU where to resume it is selected taking into
account its affinity mask, the system topology, but also its deadline.
E.g., from the scheduling point of view, the best CPU where to wake
up (and also where to push) a task is the one which is running the task
with the latest deadline among the M executing ones.
In order to facilitate these decisions, per-runqueue "caching" of the
deadlines of the currently running and of the first ready task is used.
Queued but not running tasks are also parked in another rb-tree to
speed-up pushes.

Git-Commit: 1baca4ce16b8cc7d4f50be1f7914799af30a2861
Git-Repo: git://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for
SCHED_DEADLINE implementation.
Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their
initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy
are also added where they are needed.
Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called
SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline
First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called
Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate
the behaviour of tasks between each other.
The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase
(instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The
expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's
runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed
is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline
is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an
instance) activates plus the relative deadline.
The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute
deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each
task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline
length time interval, avoiding any interference between different
tasks (bandwidth isolation).
Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with
the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new
policy.
To summarize, this patch:
- introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed;
- implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new
scheduling class file;
- provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and
the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl
and the other existing scheduling classes.

The busy time of CPUs is adjusted during task migrations. This can
result in reporting the load greater than 100% to the governor and
causes direct jumps to the higher frequencies during the intra cluster
migrations. Hence clip the load to 100% during the load reporting at
the end of the window. The load is not clipped for load alert notifications
which allows ramping up the frequency faster for inter cluster migrations
and heavy task wakeup scenarios.

The load scale factor of a CPU gets boosted when its max freq
is restricted. A task load at the same frequency is scaled higher
than normal under this scenario. This results in tasks migrating
early to the better capacity CPUs and their residency over there
also gets increased as their inflated load would be relatively
higher than than the downmigrate threshold.
Auto adjust the upmigrate and downmigrate thresholds by a factor
equal to rq->max_possible_freq/rq->max_freq of a lower capacity CPU.
If the adjusted upmigrate threshold exceeds the window size, it is
clipped to the window size. If the adjusted downmigrate threshold
decreases the difference between the upmigrate and downmigrate, it is
clipped to a value such that the difference between the modified
and the original thresholds is same.

When the CPU max freq is restricted and the CPU is running at the
max freq, the task load is inflated by max_possible_freq/max_freq
factor. This results in tasks migrating early to the better capacity
CPUs which makes things worse if the frequency restriction is due
to the thermal condition.

When multiple threads race to update HMP scheduler tunables, at present,
the tunables which require big/small task count fix-up can be updated
without fix-up and it can trigger BUG_ON().
This happens because sched_hmp_proc_update_handler() acquires rq locks and
does fix-up only when number of big/small tasks affecting tunables are
updated even though the function sched_hmp_proc_update_handler() calls
set_hmp_defaults() which re-calculates all sysctl input data at that
point. Consequently a thread that is trying to update a tunable which does
not affect big/small task count can call set_hmp_defaults() and update
big/small task count affecting tunable without fix-up if there is another
thread and it just set fix-up needed sysctl value.
Example of problem scenario :
thread 0 thread 1
Set sched_small_task – needs fix up.
Set sched_init_task_load – no fix
up needed.
proc_dointvec_minmax() completed
which means sysctl_sched_small_task has
new value.
Call set_hmp_defaults() without
lock/fixup. set_hmp_defaults() still
updates sched_small_tasks with new
sysctl_sched_small_task value by
thread 0.
Fix such issue by embracing proc update handler with already existing
policy mutex.

When an entire cluster is hotplugged, the scheduler's notion of
max_capacity can get outdated. This introduces the following
inefficiencies in behavior:
* task_will_fit() does not return true on all tasks. Consequently
all big tasks go through fallback CPU selection logic skipping
C-state and power checks in select_best_cpu().
* During boost, migration_needed() return true unnecessarily
causing an avoidable rerun of select_best_cpu().
* An unnecessary kick is sent to all little CPUs when boost is set.
* An opportunity for early bailout from nohz_kick_needed() is lost.
Start handling CPUFREQ_REMOVE_POLICY in the policy notifier callback
which indicates the last CPU in a cluster being hotplugged out. Also
modify update_min_max_capacity() to only iterate through online CPUs
instead of possible CPUs. While we can't guarantee the integrity of
the cpu_online_mask in the notifier callback, the scheduler will fix
up all state soon after any changes to the online mask.
The change does have one side effect; early termination from the
notifier callback when min_max_freq or max_possible_freq remain
unchanged is no longer possible. This is because when the last CPU
in a cluster is hot removed, only max_capacity is updated without
affecting min_max_freq or max_possible_freq. Therefore, when the
first CPU in the same cluster gets hot added at a later point
max_capacity must once again be recomputed despite there being no
change in min_max_freq or max_possible_freq.

balance does attempt to pull tasks when HMP_ACTIVE_BALANCE flag is set.

The scheduler currently either considers a tasks entire wait time as
task demand or completely ignores wait time based on the tunable
sched_account_wait_time. Both approaches have their limitations,
however. The former artificially boosts tasks demand when it may not
actually be justified. With the latter, the scheduler runs the risk
of never being able to recognize true load (consider two CPU hogs on
a single little CPU). To achieve a compromise between these two
extremes, change the load tracking algorithm to only consider part of
a tasks wait time as its demand. The portion of wait time accounted
as demand is determined by each tasks percent load, i.e. a task that
waits for 10ms and has 60 % task load, only 6 ms of the wait will
contribute to task demand. This approach is more fair as the scheduler
now tries to determine how much of its wait time would a task actually
have been using the CPU if it had been executing. It ensures that tasks
with high demand continue to see most of the benefits of accounting
wait time as busy time, however, lower demand tasks don't experience a
disproportionately high boost to demand triggering unjustified big CPU
usage. Note that this new approach is only applicable to wait time
being considered as task demand and not wait time considered as CPU
busy time.
To achieve the above effect, ensure that anytime a task is waiting, its
runtime in every relevant window segment is appropriately adjusted using
its pct load.

At boot, the cpufreq framework sends transition notifiers before
sending out the policy notifier. Since the scheduler relies on the
policy notifier to build up the frequency domain masks, when the
initial set of transition notifiers are sent, the scheduler has no
frequency domains. As a result the scheduler fails to update the
cur_freq information. Update cur_freq as part of the policy notifier
so that the scheduler always has the current frequency information.

When performance CPU runs idle or newly idle load balancer to pull a
task on power efficient CPU, the load balancer always fails and enters
idle mode if the big task on the power efficient CPU is running. This is
suboptimal when the running task on the power efficient CPU doesn't fit
on the power efficient CPU as it's quite possible that the big task will
sustain on the power efficient CPU until it's preempted while there is
a performance CPU sitting idle.
Revise load balancer algorithm to actively migrate big tasks on power
efficient CPU to performance CPU when performance CPU runs idle or newly
idle load balancer.

Scheduler at present resets task's wait start timestamp when task migrates
to another rq. This misleads scheduler itself into reporting less wait
time than actual by omitting time spent for waiting prior to migration and
also more wait count than actual by counting migration as wait end event
which can be seen by trace or /proc/<pid>/sched with CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS=y.
Carry forward migrating task's wait time prior to migration and don't count
migration as a wait-end event to fix such statistics error.

With EA (Energy Awareness), idle_balance() on a CPU runs on behalf of most
power efficient idle CPU among the CPUs in its sched domain level under the
condition that the substitute idle CPU should be limited to a CPU which has
the same capacity with original idle CPU.
It is found that at present idle_balance() spans all the CPUs in its sched
domain and run idle balancer on behalf of any CPU within the domain which
could be all the CPUs in the system which consequently makes idle balancer
on a performance CPU always runs on behalf of a power efficient idle CPU.
This would cause for idle performance CPUs to fail to pull tasks from power
efficient CPUs always when there is only an online performance CPU.
Limit search CPUs to cache sharing CPUs with original idle CPU to ensure to
run idle balancre on behalf of more power efficient CPU but still has the
same capacity with original CPU to fix such issue.

* sched_get_nr_running_avg() needs to sum up nr_iowait count across

* sched_get_nr_running_avg() could race with sched_update_nr_prod(),

When running load balance, the destination CPU checks the number
of running tasks on the busiest CPU without holding the busiest
CPUs runqueue lock. This opens the load balancer to a race whereby
a third CPU running load balance at the same time; having found the
same busiest group and queue, may have already pulled one of the
waiting tasks from the busiest CPU. Under scenarios where the source
CPU is running the idle task and only a single task remains waiting on
the busiest runqueue (nr_running = 1), the destination CPU will end
up pulling the only enqueued task from that CPU, leaving the destination
CPU with nothing left to run. Fix this race, by reconfirming nr_running
for the busiest CPU, after its runqueue lock has been obtained.

When a lower capacity CPU attempts to pull work from a higher capacity CPU,
during load balance, it does not distinguish between tasks that will fit
or not fit on the destination CPU. This causes suboptimal load balancing
decisions whereby big tasks end up on the lower capacity CPUs and little
tasks remain on higher capacity CPUs. Avoid this behavior, by first
restricting search to only include tasks that fit on the destination CPU.
If such a task cannot be found, remove this restriction so that any task
can be pulled over to the destination CPU. This behavior is not applicable
during sched_boost, however, as none of the tasks will fit on a lower
capacity CPU.

It's found that the scaled execution time can be less than its actual time
due to rounding errors. The HMP scheduler accumulates scaled execution
time of tasks to determine if tasks are in need of up-migration. But the

prevents us from ever reaching an up-migrate of 100%.

Sync wakeup currently takes precedence over wake to idle flag. A sync
wakeup causes a task to be placed on a non-idle CPU because we expect
this CPU to become idle very shortly. However, even though the sync flag
is set there is no guarantee that the task will go to sleep right away
As a consequence performance suffers.
Fix this by preferring an idle CPU over a potential busy cpu when both
wake to idle and sync wakeup are set.

so that most tasks wake up to non-idle cpus under mostly_idle
threshold and have specialized tasks override this behavior through
other means. PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE flag per task provides exactly that. It
lets tasks with PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE flag set be woken up to any available
idle cpu independent of sched_prefer_idle flag setting. Currently
only kernel-space API exists to set PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE flag for a task.
This patch adds a user-space API (in /proc filesystem) to set
PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE flag for a given task. /proc/[pid]/sched_wake_up_idle
file can be written to set or clear PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE flag for a given
task.

When choosing a CPU to do power-aware active balance from the load
balancer currently selects the first eligible CPU it finds, even if
there is another eligible CPU which is higher-power. This can lead to
suboptimal load balancing behavior and extra migrations. Power and

Achieve better power and performance by continuing to search the least

cpufreq governor does not send frequency change notifications for
offline CPUs. This means that a hot removed CPU's cur_freq information
can get stale if there is a frequency change while that CPU is offline.
When the offline CPU is hotplugged back in, all subsequent load
calculations are based off the stale information until another frequency
change occurs and the corresponding set of notifications are sent out.
Avoid this incorrect load tracking by updating the cur_freq for all
CPUs in the same frequency domain.

sysctl_sched_prefer_idle controls selection of idle cpus for waking
tasks. In some cases, waking to idle cpus help performance while in
other cases it hurts (as tasks incur latency associated with C-state
wakeup). Its ideal if scheduler can adapt prefer_idle behavior based
on the task that is waking up, but that's hard for scheduler to
figure by itself. PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE hint can be provided by external
module/driver in such case to guide scheduler in preferring an idle
cpu for select tasks irrespective of sysctl_sched_prefer_idle flag.
This patch enhances select_best_cpu() to consider PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE
hint. Wakeup posted from any task that has PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE set is a
hint for scheduler to prefer idle cpu for waking tasks. Similarly
scheduler will attempt to place any task with PF_WAKE_UP_IDLE set on
idle cpu when they wakeup.

Power values for cpus can drop quite considerably when it goes idle.
As a result, the best choice for running a single task in a cluster
can vary quite rapidly. As the task keeps hopping cpus, other cpus go
idle and start being seen as more favorable target for running a task,
leading to task migrating almost every scheduler tick!
Prevent this by keeping track of when a task started running on a cpu
and allowing task migration in tick path (migration_needed()) on
account of energy efficiency reasons only if the task has run
sufficiently long (as determined by sysctl_sched_min_runtime
variable).
Note that currently sysctl_sched_min_runtime setting is considered
only in scheduler_tick()->migration_needed() path and not in
idle_balance() path. In other words, a task could be migrated to
another cpu which did a idle_balance(). This limitation should not
affect high-frequency migrations seen typically (when a single
high-demand task runs on high-performance cpu).

The scheduler currently ignores irq activity when deciding which
CPUs to place tasks on. If a CPU is getting hammered with IRQ activity
but has no tasks it will look attractive to the scheduler as it will
not be in a low power mode.
Track irqload with a decaying average. This quantity can be used
in the task placement logic to avoid CPUs which are under high
irqload. The decay factor is 3/4. Note that with this algorithm the
tracked irqload quantity will be higher than the actual irq time
observed in any single window. Some sample outcomes with steady
irqloads per 10ms window and the 3/4 decay factor (irqload of 10 is
used as a threshold in a subsequent patch):
irqload per window load value asymptote # windows to > 10
2ms 8 n/a
3ms 12 7
4ms 16 4
5ms 20 3
Of course irqload will not be constant in each window, these are just
given as simple examples.

The system initially uses a jiffy-based sched clock. When the platform
registers a new timer for sched_clock, sched_clock can jump backwards.
Once sched_clock_postinit() runs it should be safe to rely on it.
Also sched_clock_cpu() relies on completion of sched_clock_init()
and until that happens sched_clock_cpu() returns zero. This is used
in the irq accounting path which window-based stats relies upon.
So do not set window_start until sched_clock_cpu() is working.

During sched boost RT tasks currently end up going to the lowest
power cluster. This can be a performance bottleneck especially if
the frequency and IPC differences between clusters are high.
Furthermore, when RT tasks go over to the little cluster during
boost, the load balancer keeps attempting to pull work over to the
big cluster. This results in pre-emption of the executing RT task
causing more delays. Finally, containing more work on a single
cluster during boost might help save some power if the little
cluster can then enter deeper low power modes.

init_idle() is called on a cpu's idle-thread once at bootup and
subsequently everytime the cpu is hot-added. Since init_idle() calls
__sched_fork(), we end up blowing idle thread's ravg.mark_start value.
As a result we will fail to accurately maintain cpu's
curr/prev_runnable_sum counters. Below example illustrates such a
failure:
CS = curr_runnable_sum, PS = prev_runnable_sum
t0 -> New window starts for CPU2
<after some_task_activity> CS = X, PS = Y
t1 -> <cpu2 is hot-removed. idle_task start's running on cpu2>
At this time, cpu2_idle_thread.ravg.mark_start = t1
t1 -> t0 + W. One window elapses. CPU2 still hot-removed. We
defer swapping CS and PS until some future task event occurs
t2 -> CPU2 hot-added. _cpu_up()->idle_thread_get()->init_idle()
->__sched_fork() results in cpu2_idle_thread.ravg.mark_start = 0
t3 -> Some task wakes on cpu2. Since mark_start = 0, we don't swap CS
and PS => which is a BUG!
Fix this by retaining idle task's original mark_start value during

rq->curr/prev_runnable_sum counters represent cpu demand from various
tasks that have run on a cpu. Any task that runs on a cpu will have a
representation in rq->curr_runnable_sum. Their partial_demand value
will be included in rq->curr_runnable_sum. Since partial_demand is
derived from historical load samples for a task, rq->curr_runnable_sum
could represent "inflated/un-realistic" cpu usage. As an example, lets
say that task with partial_demand of 10ms runs for only 1ms on a cpu.
What is included in rq->curr_runnable_sum is 10ms (and not the actual
execution time of 1ms). This leads to cpu busy time being reported on
the upside causing frequency to stay higher than necessary.
This patch fixes cpu busy accounting scheme to strictly represent

Similarly exit() should avoid removing (exiting) task's demand from
rq->curr_runnable_sum and rq->prev_runnable_sum (as those counters
don't include task's demand and partial_demand values in legacy mode).

try_to_wake_up() currently drops p->pi_lock and later checks for need
to notify cpufreq governor on task migrations or wakeups. However the
woken task could exit between the time p->pi_lock is released and the
time the test for notification is run. As a result, the test for
notification could refer to an exited task. task_notify_on_migrate(p)
could thus lead to invalid memory reference.
Fix this by running the test for notification with task's pi_lock
held.

The current method of turning HMP scheduling extensions on or off
based on the number of CPUs is inappropriate as there may be SoCs with
4 or less cores that require the use of these extensions. Remove this
hack as HMP extensions will now be enabled/disabled via command line
options.

A couple bugs exist with incorrect use of cpu_online_mask in
pre/post_big_small_task() functions, leading to potentially incorrect
computation of load_scale_factor/capacity/nr_big/small_tasks.
pre/post_big_small_task_count_change() use cpu_online_mask in an
unreliable manner. While local_irq_disable() in
pre_big_small_task_count_change() ensures a cpu won't go away in
cpu_online_mask, nothing prevents a cpu from coming online
concurrently. As a result, cpu_online_mask used in
pre_big_small_task_count_change() can be inconsistent with that used
in post_big_small_task_count_change() which can lead to an attempt to
unlock rq->lock which was not taken before.
Secondly, when either max_possible_freq or min_max_freq is changing,
it needs to trigger recomputation of load_scale_factor and capacity
for *all* cpus, even if some are offline. Otherwise, an offline cpu
could later come online with incorrect load_scale_factor/capacity.
While it should be sufficient to scan online cpus for
updating their nr_big/small_tasks in
post_big_small_task_count_change(), unfortunately it sounds pretty
hard to provide a stable cpu_online_mask when its called from
cpufreq_notifier_policy(). cpufreq framework can trigger a
CPUFREQ_NOTIFY notification in multiple contexts, some in cpu-hotplug
paths, which makes it pretty hard to guess whether get_online_cpus()
can be taken without causing deadlocks or not. To workaround the
insufficient information we have about the hotplug-safety context when
CPUFREQ_NOTIFY is issued, have post_big_small_task_count_change()
traverse all possible cpus in updating nr_big/small_task_count.

Task enqueue on a CPU occurs prior to that CPU exiting an idle state.
For the time duration between enqueue and idle exit, the CPU C-state
information can no longer be relied on for further task placement
since already enqueued/waiting tasks are not taken into account. The
small task placement algorithm implicitly assumes a non zero C-state
implies an idle CPU. Since this assumption is incorrect for the
duration described above, make the cpu_idle() check explicit. This
problem can lead to task packing beyond the mostly_idle threshold.

While debugging its always useful to know whether a task is small or
not to determine the scheduling algorithm being used. Have the
sched_task_load tracepoint indicate this information rather than
having to do manual calculations for every task placement.

C-state information is used by the scheduler for small task placement
decisions. Track this information in the sched_cpu_load trace event.
Also add the trace event in best_small_task_cpu(). This will help
better understand small task placement decisions.

The current WINDOW_STATS_AVG policy is actually a misnomer since it
uses the maximum value of the runtime in the recent window and the
average of the past ravg_hist_size windows. Add a policy that only
uses the average and call it WINDOW_STATS_AVG policy. Rename all the
other polices to make them shorter and unambiguous.

ld_moved is currently left set to 0 when the load balancer calls upon
active balance. This behavior is incorrect as it prevents the termination
of load balance for parent sched domains. Currently the feature is used
quite frequently for power active balance and sched boost. This means that
while sched boost is in effect we could run into a scenario where a more
power efficient newly idle big CPU first triggers active migration from a
less power efficient busy big CPU. It then continues to load balance at the
cluster level causing active migration for a task running on a little CPU.
Consequently the more power efficient big CPU ends up with two tasks where
as the less power efficient big CPU may become idle. Fix this problem by
updating ld_moved when active migration has been requested.

The sched boost feature is currently tick driven, i.e. task placement
decisions only take place at a tick (or wakeup). The load balancer
does not have any knowledge of boost being in effect. Tasks that are
woken up on a little CPU when all big CPUs are busy will continue
executing there at least until the next tick even if one of the big
CPUs becomes idle. Reduce this latency by adding support for detecting
whether boost is in effect or not in the load balancer. If boost is
in effect any big CPU running idle balance will trigger active
migration from a little CPU with the highest task load.

With the introduction of energy aware scheduling, if idle_balance() is
to be called on behalf of a different CPU which is idle, CPU_IDLE is
used in the environment for load_balance(). This, however, introduces
subtle differences in load calculations and policies in the load
balancer. For example there are restrictions on which CPU is permitted
to do load balancing during !CPU_NEWLY_IDLE (see update_sg_lb_stats)
and find_busiest_group() uses different criteria to detect the
presence of a busy group. There are other differences as well. Revert
back to using the NEWLY_IDLE environment irrespective of whether
idle_balance() is called for the newly idle CPU or on behalf on
already existing idle CPU. This will ensure that task movement logic
while doing idle balance remains unaffected.

Following commit efcad25cbfb (revert "sched: influence cpu_power based
on max_freq and efficiency), all CPUs in the system have the same
cpu_power and consequently the same group capacity. Therefore, the
check in bail_inter_cluster_balance() can now no longer be used to
distinguish a higher performance cluster from one with lower
performance. The check is currently broken and always returns true for
every load balancing attempt. Fix this by using runqueue capacity
instead which can still be used as a good measure of cluster
capabilities.
Also the logic for distinguishing between idle environments and using
a different sched group capacity in update_sd_pick_busiest() is
redundant. sgs->group_capacity would now always be equal to the number
of CPUs in the group. Use sgs->group_capacity directly in conditonal
checks in that function.

load_balance() function does not explicitly initialize env->loop
variable to 0. As a result, there is a vague possibility of
move_tasks() hitting a very long (unnecessary) loop when its unable to
move tasks from src_cpu. This can lead to unpleasant results like a
watchdog bark. Fix this by explicitly initializing env->loop variable
to 0 (in both load_balance() and active_load_balance_cpu_stop()).
