The select_idle_sibling() (SIS) rewrite in commit:
10e2f1acd010 ("sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings()")
... replaced a domain iteration with a search that broadly speaking
does a wrapped walk of the scheduler domain sharing a last-level-cache.
While this had a number of improvements, one consequence is that two tasks
that share a waker/wakee relationship push each other around a socket. Even
though two tasks may be active, all cores are evenly used. This is great from
a search perspective and spreads a load across individual cores, but it has
adverse consequences for cpufreq. As each CPU has relatively low utilisation,
cpufreq may decide the utilisation is too low to used a higher P-state and
overall computation throughput suffers.
While individual cpufreq and cpuidle drivers may compensate by artifically
boosting P-state (at c0) or avoiding lower C-states (during idle), it does
not help if hardware-based cpufreq (e.g. HWP) is used.
This patch tracks a recently used CPU based on what CPU a task was running
on when it last was a waker a CPU it was recently using when a task is a
wakee. During SIS, the recently used CPU is used as a target if it's still
allowed by the task and is idle.
The benefit may be non-obvious so consider an example of two tasks
communicating back and forth. Task A may be an application doing IO where
task B is a kworker or kthread like journald. Task A may issue IO, wake
B and B wakes up A on completion. With the existing scheme this may look
like the following (potentially different IDs if SMT is in use but similar
principal applies).
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 2)
A (cpu 2) wake B (wakes on cpu 3)
etc.
A careful reader may wonder why CPU 0 was not idle when B wakes A the
first time and it's simply due to the fact that A can be rescheduled to
another CPU and the pattern is that prev == target when B tries to wakeup A
and the information about CPU 0 has been lost.
With this patch, the pattern is more likely to be:
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 0)
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
etc
i.e. two communicating casts are more likely to use just two cores instead
of all available cores sharing a LLC.
The most dramatic speedup was noticed on dbench using the XFS filesystem on
UMA as clients interact heavily with workqueues in that configuration. Note
that a similar speedup is not observed on ext4 as the wakeup pattern
is different:
4.15.0-rc9 4.15.0-rc9
waprev-v1 biasancestor-v1
Hmean 1 287.54 ( 0.00%) 817.01 ( 184.14%)
Hmean 2 1268.12 ( 0.00%) 1781.24 ( 40.46%)
Hmean 4 1739.68 ( 0.00%) 1594.47 ( -8.35%)
Hmean 8 2464.12 ( 0.00%) 2479.56 ( 0.63%)
Hmean 64 1455.57 ( 0.00%) 1434.68 ( -1.44%)
The results can be less dramatic on NUMA where automatic balancing interferes
with the test. It's also known that network benchmarks running on localhost
also benefit quite a bit from this patch (roughly 10% on netperf RR for UDP
and TCP depending on the machine). Hackbench also seens small improvements
(6-11% depending on machine and thread count). The facebook schbench was also
tested but in most cases showed little or no different to wakeup latencies.

Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim
by JIT.
Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by
documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core
serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier
IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before
going back to user-space). They should then select
ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on
their architecture.
Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that
they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space,
or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().

Introduce an architecture function that ensures the current CPU
issues a core serializing instruction before returning to usermode.
This is needed for the membarrier "sync_core" command.
Architectures defining the sync_core_before_usermode() static inline
need to select ARCH_HAS_SYNC_CORE_BEFORE_USERMODE.

Allow expedited membarrier to be used for data shared between processes
through shared memory.
Processes wishing to receive the membarriers register with
MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. Those which want to issue
membarrier invoke MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
This allows extremely simple kernel-level implementation: we have almost
everything we need with the PRIVATE_EXPEDITED barrier code. All we need
to do is to add a flag in the mm_struct that will be used to check
whether we need to send the IPI to the current thread of each CPU.
There is a slight downside to this approach compared to targeting
specific shared memory users: when performing a membarrier operation,
all registered "global" receivers will get the barrier, even if they
don't share a memory mapping with the sender issuing
MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
This registration approach seems to fit the requirement of not
disturbing processes that really deeply care about real-time: they
simply should not register with MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
In order to align the membarrier command names, the "MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED"
command is renamed to "MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL", keeping an alias of
MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED to MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL for UAPI header backward
compatibility.

Document the membarrier requirement on having a full memory barrier in
__schedule() after coming from user-space, before storing to rq->curr.
It is provided by smp_mb__after_spinlock() in __schedule().
Document that membarrier requires a full barrier on transition from
kernel thread to userspace thread. We currently have an implicit barrier
from atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop() that ensures this.
The x86 switch_mm_irqs_off() full barrier is currently provided by many
cpumask update operations as well as write_cr3(). Document that
write_cr3() provides this barrier.

Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and
only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a
process that has registered to use expedited private.
Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread
groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences:
It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the
number of threads using a VM. We can use
(atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1)
instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has
a single user, and that user only has a single thread.
It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set
thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the
thread group.
Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than
relying on thread flags. This means
membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and
only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows
private expedited membarrier commands to succeed.
membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The timer departement presents:
- A rather large rework of the hrtimer infrastructure which
introduces softirq based hrtimers to replace the spread of
hrtimer/tasklet combos which force the actual callback execution
into softirq context. The approach is completely different from the
initial implementation which you cursed at 10 years ago rightfully.
The softirq based timers have their own queues and there is no
nasty indirection and list reshuffling in the hard interrupt
anymore. This comes with conversion of some of the hrtimer/tasklet
users, the rest and the final removal of that horrible interface
will come towards the end of the merge window or go through the
relevant maintainer trees.
Note: The top commit merged the last minute bugfix for the 10 years
old CPU hotplug bug as I wanted to make sure that I fatfinger the
merge conflict resolution myself.
- The overhaul of the STM32 clocksource/clockevents driver
- A new driver for the Spreadtrum SC9860 timer

Pull inode->i_version rework from Jeff Layton:
"This pile of patches is a rework of the inode->i_version field. We
have traditionally incremented that field on every inode data or
metadata change. Typically this increment needs to be logged on disk
even when nothing else has changed, which is rather expensive.
It turns out though that none of the consumers of that field actually
require this behavior. The only real requirement for all of them is
that it be different iff the inode has changed since the last time the
field was checked.
Given that, we can optimize away most of the i_version increments and
avoid dirtying inode metadata when the only change is to the i_version
and no one is querying it. Queries of the i_version field are rather
rare, so we can help write performance under many common workloads.
This patch series converts existing accesses of the i_version field to
a new API, and then converts all of the in-kernel filesystems to use
it. The last patch in the series then converts the backend
implementation to a scheme that optimizes away a large portion of the
metadata updates when no one is looking at it.
In my own testing this series significantly helps performance with
small I/O sizes. I also got this email for Christmas this year from
the kernel test robot (a 244% r/w bandwidth improvement with XFS over
DAX, with 4k writes):
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/25/8
A few of the earlier patches in this pile are also flowing to you via
other trees (mm, integrity, and nfsd trees in particular)".

- Series from Tejun reworking blk-mq timeout handling. The previous
scheme relied on atomic bits, but it had races where we would think
a request had timed out if it to reused at the wrong time.
- null_blk now supports faking timeouts, to enable us to better
exercise and test that functionality separately. From me.
- Kill the separate atomic poll bit in the request struct. After
this, we don't use the atomic bits on blk-mq anymore at all. From
me.

Pull MMC updates from Ulf Hansson:
"There are two major achievements for MMC in this release, which
deserves to be specially highlighted.
First, we have converted the MMC block device from using the legacy
blk interface into using the modern blkmq interface. Not only do we
get all the nice effects from using blkmq, but it also means that new
fresh nice code replaces old rusty code. Great news to everybody that
cares about MMC/SD!
It should also be noted that converting to blkmq has not been trivial,
mostly because of that we have been carrying too much of MMC specific
optimizations for the I/O request path, rather than striving to move
these to the generic blk layer. Hopefully we won't be doing that
mistake, ever again.
Special thanks to Adrian Hunter (Intel) and to Linus Walleij (Linaro),
who both have been working on this for quite some time!
Second, on top of the blkmq deployment, we have enabled full support
the eMMC command queuing feature, introduced in the eMMC v.5.1 spec.
This also includes an implementation of a host driver library,
supporting the corresponding CQHCI HW. Ideally, those controllers that
supports CQHCI should only need some minor adaptations to make this
play.
So far the sdhci-pci driver for the Intel GLKs and the sdhci-of-arasan
driver used on Rockchip RK3399, have enabled support for eMMC command
queueing.
Worth to highlight is also that, implementing the eMMC command queuing
support has been a collaborative effort, as several people from
Codeaurora, Rockchip, Intel and Linaro have been involved. However,
the work has been driven by Adrian Hunter (Intel).
In some shadow of the above, here are the rest of the highlights:
MMC core:
- Don't remove non-removable cards during system suspend
- Add a slot-gpio helper to check capability of GPIO WP detection
MMC host:
- sdhci: Cleanups and improvements of some wakeup related code
- sdhci-pci-arasan: New variant to support Arasan PCI HW with integrated phy
- sdhci-acpi: Avoid broken UHS transfer modes on Intel CHT
- sdhci-acpi: Add support for ACPI HID of AMD Controller with HS400
- sdhci_f_sdh30: Add ACPI support
- sdhci-esdhc-imx: Enable/disable clock at runtime suspend/resume

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This includes some infrastructure changes in the PM core, mostly
related to integration between runtime PM and system-wide suspend and
hibernation, plus some driver changes depending on them and fixes for
issues in that area which have become quite apparent recently.
Also included are changes making more x86-based systems use the Low
Power Sleep S0 _DSM interface by default, which turned out to be
necessary to handle power button wakeups from suspend-to-idle on
Surface Pro3.
On the cpufreq front we have fixes and cleanups in the core, some new
hardware support, driver updates and the removal of some unused code
from the CPU cooling thermal driver.
Apart from this, the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is
prepared to be used with power domains in the future and there is a
usual bunch of assorted fixes and cleanups.
Specifics:
- Define a PM driver flag allowing drivers to request that their
devices be left in suspend after system-wide transitions to the
working state if possible and add support for it to the PCI bus
type and the ACPI PM domain (Rafael Wysocki).
- Make the PM core carry out optimizations for devices with driver PM
flags set in some cases and make a few drivers set those flags
(Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix and clean up wrapper routines allowing runtime PM device
callbacks to be re-used for system-wide PM, change the generic
power domains (genpd) framework to stop using those routines
incorrectly and fix up a driver depending on that behavior of genpd
(Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Fix and clean up the PM core's device wakeup framework and
re-factor system-wide PM core code related to device wakeup
(Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Brian Norris).
- Make more x86-based systems use the Low Power Sleep S0 _DSM
interface by default (to fix power button wakeup from
suspend-to-idle on Surface Pro3) and add a kernel command line
switch to tell it to ignore the system sleep blacklist in the ACPI
core (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix a race condition related to cpufreq governor module removal and
clean up the governor management code in the cpufreq core (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Drop the unused generic code related to the handling of the static
power energy usage model in the CPU cooling thermal driver along
with the corresponding documentation (Viresh Kumar).
- Add mt2712 support to the Mediatek cpufreq driver (Andrew-sh
Cheng).
- Add a new operating point to the imx6ul and imx6q cpufreq drivers
and switch the latter to using clk_bulk_get() (Anson Huang, Dong
Aisheng).
- Add support for multiple regulators to the TI cpufreq driver along
with a new DT binding related to that and clean up that driver
somewhat (Dave Gerlach).
- Fix a powernv cpufreq driver regression leading to incorrect CPU
frequency reporting, fix that driver to deal with non-continguous
P-states correctly and clean it up (Gautham Shenoy, Shilpasri
Bhat).
- Add support for frequency scaling on Armada 37xx SoCs through the
generic DT cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT).
- Fix error code paths in the mvebu cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT).
- Fix a transition delay setting regression in the longhaul cpufreq
driver (Viresh Kumar).
- Add Skylake X (server) support to the intel_pstate cpufreq driver
and clean up that driver somewhat (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Clean up the cpufreq statistics collection code (Viresh Kumar).
- Drop cluster terminology and dependency on physical_package_id from
the PSCI driver and drop dependency on arm_big_little from the SCPI
cpufreq driver (Sudeep Holla).
- Add support for system-wide suspend and resume to the RAPL power
capping driver and drop a redundant semicolon from it (Zhen Han,
Luis de Bethencourt).
- Make SPI domain validation (in the SCSI SPI transport driver) and
system-wide suspend mutually exclusive as they rely on the same
underlying mechanism and cannot be carried out at the same time
(Bart Van Assche).
- Fix the computation of the amount of memory to preallocate in the
hibernation core and clean up one function in there (Rainer Fiebig,
Kyungsik Lee).
- Prepare the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework for being
used with power domains and clean up one function in it (Viresh
Kumar, Wei Yongjun).
- Clean up the generic sysfs interface for device PM (Andy
Shevchenko).
- Fix several minor issues in power management frameworks and clean
them up a bit (Arvind Yadav, Bjorn Andersson, Geert Uytterhoeven,
Gustavo Silva, Julia Lawall, Luis de Bethencourt, Paul Gortmaker,
Sergey Senozhatsky, gaurav jindal).
- Make it easier to disable PM via Kconfig (Mark Brown).
- Clean up the cpupower and intel_pstate_tracer utilities (Doug
Smythies, Laura Abbott)"

Pull init_task initializer cleanups from David Howells:
"It doesn't seem useful to have the init_task in a header file rather
than in a normal source file. We could consolidate init_task handling
instead and expand out various macros.
Here's a series of patches that consolidate init_task handling:
(1) Make THREAD_SIZE available to vmlinux.lds for cris, hexagon and
openrisc.
(2) Alter the INIT_TASK_DATA linker script macro to set
init_thread_union and init_stack rather than defining these in C.
Insert init_task and init_thread_into into the init_stack area in
the linker script as appropriate to the configuration, with
different section markers so that they end up correctly ordered.
We can then get merge ia64's init_task.c into the main one.
We then have a bunch of single-use INIT_*() macros that seem only
to be macros because they used to be used per-arch. We can then
expand these in place of the user and get rid of a few lines and
a lot of backslashes.
(3) Expand INIT_TASK() in place.
(4) Expand in place various small INIT_*() macros that are defined
conditionally. Expand them and surround them by #if[n]def/#endif
in the .c file as it takes fewer lines.
(5) Expand INIT_SIGNALS() and INIT_SIGHAND() in place.
(6) Expand INIT_STRUCT_PID in place.

Since i_version is mostly treated as an opaque value, we can exploit that
fact to avoid incrementing it when no one is watching. With that change,
we can avoid incrementing the counter on writes, unless someone has
queried for it since it was last incremented. If the a/c/mtime don't
change, and the i_version hasn't changed, then there's no need to dirty
the inode metadata on a write.
Convert the i_version counter to an atomic64_t, and use the lowest order
bit to hold a flag that will tell whether anyone has queried the value
since it was last incremented.
When we go to maybe increment it, we fetch the value and check the flag
bit. If it's clear then we don't need to do anything if the update
isn't being forced.
If we do need to update, then we increment the counter by 2, and clear
the flag bit, and then use a CAS op to swap it into place. If that
works, we return true. If it doesn't then do it again with the value
that we fetch from the CAS operation.
On the query side, if the flag is already set, then we just shift the
value down by 1 bit and return it. Otherwise, we set the flag in our
on-stack value and again use cmpxchg to swap it into place if it hasn't
changed. If it has, then we use the value from the cmpxchg as the new
"old" value and try again.
This method allows us to avoid incrementing the counter on writes (and
dirtying the metadata) under typical workloads. We only need to increment
if it has been queried since it was last changed.

The rationale for taking the i_lock when incrementing this value is
lost in antiquity. The readers of the field don't take it (at least
not universally), so my assumption is that it was only done here to
serialize incrementors.
If that is indeed the case, then we can drop the i_lock from this
codepath and treat it as a atomic64_t for the purposes of
incrementing it. This allows us to use inode_inc_iversion without
any danger of lock inversion.
Note that the read side is not fetched atomically with this change.
The assumption here is that that is not a critical issue since the
i_version is not fully synchronized with anything else anyway.

Add a documentation blob that explains what the i_version field is, how
it is expected to work, and how it is currently implemented by various
filesystems.
We already have inode_inc_iversion. Add several other functions for
manipulating and accessing the i_version counter. For now, the
implementation is trivial and basically works the way that all of the
open-coded i_version accesses work today.
Future patches will convert existing users of i_version to use the new
API, and then convert the backend implementation to do things more
efficiently.

In this patch, consumers are allowed to set suspend voltage, and this
actually just set the "uV" in constraint::regulator_state, when the
regulator_suspend_late() was called by PM core through callback when
the system is entering into suspend, the regulator device would act
suspend activity then.
And it assumes that if any consumer set suspend voltage, the regulator
device should be enabled in the suspend state. And if the suspend
voltage of a regulator device for all consumers was set zero, the
regulator device would be off in the suspend state.
This patch also provides a new function hook to regulator devices for
resuming from suspend states.

Regualtor suspend/resume functions should only be called by PM suspend
core via registering dev_pm_ops, and regulator devices should implement
the callback functions. Thus, any regulator consumer shouldn't call
the regulator suspend/resume functions directly.
In order to avoid compile errors, two empty functions with the same name
still be left for the time being.

The items "disabled" and "enabled" are a little redundant, since only one
of them would be set to record if the regulator device should keep on
or be switched to off in suspend states.
So in this patch, the "disabled" was removed, only leave the "enabled":
- enabled == 1 for regulator-on-in-suspend
- enabled == 0 for regulator-off-in-suspend
- enabled == -1 means do nothing when entering suspend mode.

There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes
vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the
right compiler or the right option.
To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info
string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with
retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source
or prebuilt object files are not checked.
If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at
load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.

When a tcp socket is closed, if it detects that its net namespace is
exiting, close immediately and do not wait for FIN sequence.
For normal sockets, a reference is taken to their net namespace, so it will
never exit while the socket is open. However, kernel sockets do not take a
reference to their net namespace, so it may begin exiting while the kernel
socket is still open. In this case if the kernel socket is a tcp socket,
it will stay open trying to complete its close sequence. The sock's dst(s)
hold a reference to their interface, which are all transferred to the
namespace's loopback interface when the real interfaces are taken down.
When the namespace tries to take down its loopback interface, it hangs
waiting for all references to the loopback interface to release, which
results in messages like:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1
These messages continue until the socket finally times out and closes.
Since the net namespace cleanup holds the net_mutex while calling its
registered pernet callbacks, any new net namespace initialization is
blocked until the current net namespace finishes exiting.
After this change, the tcp socket notices the exiting net namespace, and
closes immediately, releasing its dst(s) and their reference to the
loopback interface, which lets the net namespace continue exiting.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"With the new ORC unwinder, ftrace stack tracing became disfunctional.
One was that ORC didn't know how to handle the ftrace callbacks in
general (which Josh fixed).
The other was that ORC would just bail if it hit a dynamically
allocated trampoline. Which means all ftrace stack tracing that
happens from the function tracer would produce no results (that
includes killing the max stack size tracer). I added a check to the
ORC unwinder to see if the trampoline belonged to ftrace, and if it
did, use the orc entry of the static trampoline that was used to
create the dynamic one (it would be identical).
Finally, I noticed that the skip values of the stack tracing were out
of whack. I went through and fixed them up"

Commit 513674b5a2c9 ("net: reevalulate autoflowlabel setting after
sysctl setting") removed the initialisation of
ipv6_pinfo::autoflowlabel and added a second flag to indicate
whether this field or the net namespace default should be used.
The getsockopt() handling for this case was not updated, so it
currently returns 0 for all sockets for which IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL is
not explicitly enabled. Fix it to return the effective value, whether
that has been set at the socket or net namespace level.

The function tracer can create a dynamically allocated trampoline that is
called by the function mcount or fentry hook that is used to call the
function callback that is registered. The problem is that the orc undwinder
will bail if it encounters one of these trampolines. This breaks the stack
trace of function callbacks, which include the stack tracer and setting the
stack trace for individual functions.
Since these dynamic trampolines are basically copies of the static ftrace
trampolines defined in ftrace_*.S, we do not need to create new orc entries
for the dynamic trampolines. Finding the return address on the stack will be
identical as the functions that were copied to create the dynamic
trampolines. When encountering a ftrace dynamic trampoline, we can just use
the orc entry of the ftrace static function that was copied for that
trampoline.
