Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- MAINTAINERS: Add Mark Rutland as perf submaintainer, Juri Lelli and
Vincent Guittot as scheduler submaintainers. Add Dietmar Eggemann,
Steven Rostedt, Ben Segall and Mel Gorman as scheduler reviewers.
As perf and the scheduler is getting bigger and more complex,
document the status quo of current responsibilities and interests,
and spread the review pain^H^H^H^H fun via an increase in the Cc:
linecount generated by scripts/get_maintainer.pl. :-)
- Add another series of patches that brings the -rt (PREEMPT_RT) tree
closer to mainline: split the monolithic CONFIG_PREEMPT dependencies
into a new CONFIG_PREEMPTION category that will allow the eventual
introduction of CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Still a few more hundred patches
to go though.
- Extend the CPU cgroup controller with uclamp.min and uclamp.max to
allow the finer shaping of CPU bandwidth usage.
- Micro-optimize energy-aware wake-ups from O(CPUS^2) to O(CPUS).
- Improve the behavior of high CPU count, high thread count
applications running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints.
- Improve balancing with SCHED_IDLE (SCHED_BATCH) tasks present.
- Improve CPU isolation housekeeping CPU allocation NUMA locality.
- Fix deadline scheduler bandwidth calculations and logic when cpusets
rebuilds the topology, or when it gets deadline-throttled while it's
being offlined.
- Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from
setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization.
Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and
the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken
before.
- Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more
optimal.
- Rework (simplify) the pick_next_task() slowpath.
- Improve load-balancing on AMD EPYC systems.
- ... and misc cleanups, smaller fixes and improvements - please see
the Git log for more details.

If a new child cgroup is created in the frozen cgroup hierarchy
(one or more of ancestor cgroups is frozen), the CGRP_FREEZE cgroup
flag should be set. Otherwise if a process will be attached to the
child cgroup, it won't become frozen.
The problem can be reproduced with the test_cgfreezer_mkdir test.
This is the output before this patch:
~/test_freezer
ok 1 test_cgfreezer_simple
ok 2 test_cgfreezer_tree
ok 3 test_cgfreezer_forkbomb
Cgroup /sys/fs/cgroup/cg_test_mkdir_A/cg_test_mkdir_B isn't frozen

No synchronisation mechanism exists between the cpuset subsystem and
calls to function __sched_setscheduler(). As such, it is possible that
new root domains are created on the cpuset side while a deadline
acceptance test is carried out in __sched_setscheduler(), leading to a
potential oversell of CPU bandwidth.
Grab cpuset_rwsem read lock from core scheduler, so to prevent
situations such as the one described above from happening.
The only exception is normalize_rt_tasks() which needs to work under
tasklist_lock and can't therefore grab cpuset_rwsem. We are fine with
this, as this function is only called by sysrq and, if that gets
triggered, DEADLINE guarantees are already gone out of the window
anyway.

cpuset_rwsem is going to be acquired from sched_setscheduler() with a
following patch. There are however paths (e.g., spawn_ksoftirqd) in
which sched_scheduler() is eventually called while holding hotplug lock;
this creates a dependecy between hotplug lock (to be always acquired
first) and cpuset_rwsem (to be always acquired after hotplug lock).
Fix paths which currently take the two locks in the wrong order (after
a following patch is applied).

Holding cpuset_mutex means that cpusets are stable (only the holder can
make changes) and this is required for fixing a synchronization issue
between cpusets and scheduler core. However, grabbing cpuset_mutex from
setscheduler() hotpath (as implemented in a later patch) is a no-go, as
it would create a bottleneck for tasks concurrently calling
setscheduler().
Convert cpuset_mutex to be a percpu_rwsem (cpuset_rwsem), so that
setscheduler() will then be able to read lock it and avoid concurrency
issues.

When the topology of root domains is modified by CPUset or CPUhotplug
operations information about the current deadline bandwidth held in the
root domain is lost.
This patch addresses the issue by recalculating the lost deadline
bandwidth information by circling through the deadline tasks held in
CPUsets and adding their current load to the root domain they are
associated with.

In the case that a process is constrained by taskset(1) (i.e.
sched_setaffinity(2)) to a subset of available cpus, and all of those are
subsequently offlined, the scheduler will set tsk->cpus_allowed to
the current value of task_cs(tsk)->effective_cpus.
This is done via a call to do_set_cpus_allowed() in the context of
cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback() made by the scheduler when this case is
detected. This is the only call made to cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback()
in the latest mainline kernel.
However, this is not sane behavior.
I will demonstrate this on a system running the latest upstream kernel
with the following initial configuration:
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffffff,fffffff
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-63
(Where cpus 32-63 are provided via smt.)
If we limit our current shell process to cpu2 only and then offline it
and reonline it:
# taskset -p 4 $$
pid 2272's current affinity mask: ffffffffffffffff
pid 2272's new affinity mask: 4
# echo off > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
# dmesg | tail -3
[ 2195.866089] process 2272 (bash) no longer affine to cpu2
[ 2195.872700] IRQ 114: no longer affine to CPU2
[ 2195.879128] smpboot: CPU 2 is now offline
# echo on > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
# dmesg | tail -1
[ 2617.043572] smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 2 APIC 0x4
We see that our current process now has an affinity mask containing
every cpu available on the system _except_ the one we originally
constrained it to:
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffffff,fffffffb
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-1,3-63
This is not sane behavior, as the scheduler can now not only place the
process on previously forbidden cpus, it can't even schedule it on
the cpu it was originally constrained to!
Other cases result in even more exotic affinity masks. Take for instance
a process with an affinity mask containing only cpus provided by smt at
the moment that smt is toggled, in a configuration such as the following:
# taskset -p f000000000 $$
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: 000000f0,00000000
Cpus_allowed_list: 36-39
A double toggle of smt results in the following behavior:
# echo off > /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
# echo on > /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
# grep -i cpus /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffff00,ffffffff
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-31,40-63
This is even less sane than the previous case, as the new affinity mask
excludes all smt-provided cpus with ids less than those that were
previously in the affinity mask, as well as those that were actually in
the mask.
With this patch applied, both of these cases end in the following state:
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffffff,ffffffff
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-63
The original policy is discarded. Though not ideal, it is the simplest way
to restore sanity to this fallback case without reinventing the cpuset
wheel that rolls down the kernel just fine in cgroup v2. A user who wishes
for the previous affinity mask to be restored in this fallback case can use
that mechanism instead.
This patch modifies scheduler behavior by instead resetting the mask to
task_cs(tsk)->cpus_allowed by default, and cpu_possible mask in legacy
mode. I tested the cases above on both modes.
Note that the scheduler uses this fallback mechanism if and only if
_every_ other valid avenue has been traveled, and it is the last resort
before calling BUG().

b636fd38dc40 ("cgroup: Implement css_task_iter_skip()") introduced
css_task_iter_skip() which is used to fix task iterations skipping
dying threadgroup leaders with live threads. Skipping is implemented
as a subportion of full advancing but css_task_iter_next() forgot to
fully advance a skipped iterator before determining the next task to
visit causing it to return invalid task pointers.
Fix it by making css_task_iter_next() fully advance the iterator if it
has been skipped since the previous iteration.

In commit:
4b53a3412d66 ("sched/core: Remove the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper")
the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper was removed. There was not
much difference in !RT but in RT we used this to implement
migrate_disable(). Within a migrate_disable() section the CPU mask is
restricted to single CPU while the "normal" CPU mask remains untouched.
As an alternative implementation Ingo suggested to use:
struct task_struct {
const cpumask_t *cpus_ptr;
cpumask_t cpus_mask;
};
with
t->cpus_ptr = &t->cpus_mask;
In -RT we then can switch the cpus_ptr to:
t->cpus_ptr = &cpumask_of(task_cpu(p));
in a migration disabled region. The rules are simple:
- Code that 'uses' ->cpus_allowed would use the pointer.
- Code that 'modifies' ->cpus_allowed would use the direct mask.

memory.stat and other files already consider subtrees in their output, and
we should too in order to not present an inconsistent interface.
The current situation is fairly confusing, because people interacting with
cgroups expect hierarchical behaviour in the vein of memory.stat,
cgroup.events, and other files. For example, this causes confusion when
debugging reclaim events under low, as currently these always read "0" at
non-leaf memcg nodes, which frequently causes people to misdiagnose breach
behaviour. The same confusion applies to other counters in this file when
debugging issues.
Aggregation is done at write time instead of at read-time since these
counters aren't hot (unlike memory.stat which is per-page, so it does it
at read time), and it makes sense to bundle this with the file
notifications.
After this patch, events are propagated up the hierarchy:
[root@ktst ~]# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/memory.events
low 0
high 0
max 0
oom 0
oom_kill 0
[root@ktst ~]# systemd-run -p MemoryMax=1 true
Running as unit: run-r251162a189fb4562b9dabfdc9b0422f5.service
[root@ktst ~]# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/memory.events
low 0
high 0
max 7
oom 1
oom_kill 1
As this is a change in behaviour, this can be reverted to the old
behaviour by mounting with the `memory_localevents' flag set. However, we
use the new behaviour by default as there's a lack of evidence that there
are any current users of memory.events that would find this change
undesirable.
akpm: this is a behaviour change, so Cc:stable. THis is so that
forthcoming distros which use cgroup v2 are more likely to pick up the
revised behaviour.

When a task is moved out of a cset, task iterators pointing to the
task are advanced using the normal css_task_iter_advance() call. This
is fine but we'll be tracking dying tasks on csets and thus moving
tasks from cset->tasks to (to be added) cset->dying_tasks. When we
remove a task from cset->tasks, if we advance the iterators, they may
move over to the next cset before we had the chance to add the task
back on the dying list, which can allow the task to escape iteration.
This patch separates out skipping from advancing. Skipping only moves
the affected iterators to the next pointer rather than fully advancing
it and the following advancing will recognize that the cursor has
already been moved forward and do the rest of advancing. This ensures
that when a task moves from one list to another in its cset, as long
as it moves in the right direction, it's always visible to iteration.
This doesn't cause any visible behavior changes.

Currently the lifetime of bpf programs attached to a cgroup is bound
to the lifetime of the cgroup itself. It means that if a user
forgets (or intentionally avoids) to detach a bpf program before
removing the cgroup, it will stay attached up to the release of the
cgroup. Since the cgroup can stay in the dying state (the state
between being rmdir()'ed and being released) for a very long time, it
leads to a waste of memory. Also, it blocks a possibility to implement
the memcg-based memory accounting for bpf objects, because a circular
reference dependency will occur. Charged memory pages are pinning the
corresponding memory cgroup, and if the memory cgroup is pinning
the attached bpf program, nothing will be ever released.
A dying cgroup can not contain any processes, so the only chance for
an attached bpf program to be executed is a live socket associated
with the cgroup. So in order to release all bpf data early, let's
count associated sockets using a new percpu refcounter. On cgroup
removal the counter is transitioned to the atomic mode, and as soon
as it reaches 0, all bpf programs are detached.
Because cgroup_bpf_release() can block, it can't be called from
the percpu ref counter callback directly, so instead an asynchronous
work is scheduled.
The reference counter is not socket specific, and can be used for any
other types of programs, which can be executed from a cgroup-bpf hook
outside of the process context, had such a need arise in the future.

Psi monitor aims to provide a low-latency short-term pressure detection
mechanism configurable by users. It allows users to monitor psi metrics
growth and trigger events whenever a metric raises above user-defined
threshold within user-defined time window.
Time window and threshold are both expressed in usecs. Multiple psi
resources with different thresholds and window sizes can be monitored
concurrently.
Psi monitors activate when system enters stall state for the monitored
psi metric and deactivate upon exit from the stall state. While system
is in the stall state psi signal growth is monitored at a rate of 10
times per tracking window. Min window size is 500ms, therefore the min
monitoring interval is 50ms. Max window size is 10s with monitoring
interval of 1s.
When activated psi monitor stays active for at least the duration of one
tracking window to avoid repeated activations/deactivations when psi
signal is bouncing.
Notifications to the users are rate-limited to one per tracking window.

A task should never enter the exit path with the task->frozen bit set.
Any frozen task must enter the signal handling loop and the only
way to escape is through cgroup_leave_frozen(true), which
unconditionally drops the task->frozen bit. So it means that
cgroyp_freezer_frozen_exit() has zero chances to be called and
has to be removed.
Let's put a WARN_ON_ONCE() instead of the cgroup_freezer_frozen_exit()

If freezing of a cgroup races with waking of a task from
the frozen state (like waiting in vfork() or in do_signal_stop()),
a spurious transition of the cgroup state can happen.
The task enters cgroup_leave_frozen(true), the cgroup->nr_frozen_tasks
counter decrements, and the cgroup is switched to the unfrozen state.
To prevent it, let's reserve cgroup_leave_frozen(true) for
terminating processes and use cgroup_leave_frozen(false) otherwise.
To avoid busy-looping in the signal handling loop waiting
for JOBCTL_TRAP_FREEZE set from the cgroup freezing path,
let's do it explicitly in cgroup_leave_frozen(), if the task
is going to stay frozen.

Cgroup v1 implements the freezer controller, which provides an ability
to stop the workload in a cgroup and temporarily free up some
resources (cpu, io, network bandwidth and, potentially, memory)
for some other tasks. Cgroup v2 lacks this functionality.
This patch implements freezer for cgroup v2.
Cgroup v2 freezer tries to put tasks into a state similar to jobctl
stop. This means that tasks can be killed, ptraced (using
PTRACE_SEIZE*), and interrupted. It is possible to attach to
a frozen task, get some information (e.g. read registers) and detach.
It's also possible to migrate a frozen tasks to another cgroup.
This differs cgroup v2 freezer from cgroup v1 freezer, which mostly
tried to imitate the system-wide freezer. However uninterruptible
sleep is fine when all tasks are going to be frozen (hibernation case),
it's not the acceptable state for some subset of the system.
Cgroup v2 freezer is not supporting freezing kthreads.
If a non-root cgroup contains kthread, the cgroup still can be frozen,
but the kthread will remain running, the cgroup will be shown
as non-frozen, and the notification will not be delivered.
* PTRACE_ATTACH is not working because non-fatal signal delivery
is blocked in frozen state.
There are some interface differences between cgroup v1 and cgroup v2
freezer too, which are required to conform the cgroup v2 interface
design principles:
1) There is no separate controller, which has to be turned on:
the functionality is always available and is represented by
cgroup.freeze and cgroup.events cgroup control files.
2) The desired state is defined by the cgroup.freeze control file.
Any hierarchical configuration is allowed.
3) The interface is asynchronous. The actual state is available
using cgroup.events control file ("frozen" field). There are no
dedicated transitional states.
4) It's allowed to make any changes with the cgroup hierarchy
(create new cgroups, remove old cgroups, move tasks between cgroups)
no matter if some cgroups are frozen.
