2021-07-02sched/uclamp: Ignore max aggregation if rq is idleXuewen Yan1-7/+14
When a task wakes up on an idle rq, uclamp_rq_util_with() would max aggregate with rq value. But since there is no task enqueued yet, the values are stale based on the last task that was running. When the new task actually wakes up and enqueued, then the rq uclamp values should reflect that of the newly woken up task effective uclamp values. This is a problem particularly for uclamp_max because it default to 1024. If a task p with uclamp_max = 512 wakes up, then max aggregation would ignore the capping that should apply when this task is enqueued, which is wrong. Fix that by ignoring max aggregation if the rq is idle since in that case the effective uclamp value of the rq will be the ones of the task that will wake up.

2021-07-02sched/fair: Fix CFS bandwidth hrtimer expiry typeOdin Ugedal1-2/+2
The time remaining until expiry of the refresh_timer can be negative. Casting the type to an unsigned 64-bit value will cause integer underflow, making the runtime_refresh_within return false instead of true. These situations are rare, but they do happen. This does not cause user-facing issues or errors; other than possibly unthrottling cfs_rq's using runtime from the previous period(s), making the CFS bandwidth enforcement less strict in those (special) situations.

2021-07-01cpufreq: CPPC: Add support for frequency invarianceViresh Kumar1-0/+1
The Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) is providing a frequency scaling correction factor that helps achieve more accurate load-tracking. Normally, this scaling factor can be obtained directly with the help of the cpufreq drivers as they know the exact frequency the hardware is running at. But that isn't the case for CPPC cpufreq driver. Another way of obtaining that is using the arch specific counter support, which is already present in kernel, but that hardware is optional for platforms. This patch updates the CPPC driver to register itself with the topology core to provide its own implementation (cppc_scale_freq_tick()) of topology_scale_freq_tick() which gets called by the scheduler on every tick. Note that the arch specific counters have higher priority than CPPC counters, if available, though the CPPC driver doesn't need to have any special handling for that. On an invocation of cppc_scale_freq_tick(), we schedule an irq work (since we reach here from hard-irq context), which then schedules a normal work item and cppc_scale_freq_workfn() updates the per_cpu arch_freq_scale variable based on the counter updates since the last tick. To allow platforms to disable this CPPC counter-based frequency invariance support, this is all done under CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE, which is enabled by default. This also exports sched_setattr_nocheck() as the CPPC driver can be built as a module.

2021-06-28sched/fair: Ensure _sum and _avg values stay consistentOdin Ugedal1-3/+3
The _sum and _avg values are in general sync together with the PELT divider. They are however not always completely in perfect sync, resulting in situations where _sum gets to zero while _avg stays positive. Such situations are undesirable. This comes from the fact that PELT will increase period_contrib, also increasing the PELT divider, without updating _sum and _avg values to stay in perfect sync where (_sum == _avg * divider). However, such PELT change will never lower _sum, making it impossible to end up in a situation where _sum is zero and _avg is not. Therefore, we need to ensure that when subtracting load outside PELT, that when _sum is zero, _avg is also set to zero. This occurs when (_sum < _avg * divider), and the subtracted (_avg * divider) is bigger or equal to the current _sum, while the subtracted _avg is smaller than the current _avg.

2021-06-24sched/topology: Rework CPU capacity asymmetry detectionBeata Michalska1-78/+131
Currently the CPU capacity asymmetry detection, performed through asym_cpu_capacity_level, tries to identify the lowest topology level at which the highest CPU capacity is being observed, not necessarily finding the level at which all possible capacity values are visible to all CPUs, which might be bit problematic for some possible/valid asymmetric topologies i.e.: DIE [ ] MC [ ][ ] CPU [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Capacity |.....| |.....| |.....| |.....| L M B B Where: arch_scale_cpu_capacity(L) = 512 arch_scale_cpu_capacity(M) = 871 arch_scale_cpu_capacity(B) = 1024 In this particular case, the asymmetric topology level will point at MC, as all possible CPU masks for that level do cover the CPU with the highest capacity. It will work just fine for the first cluster, not so much for the second one though (consider the find_energy_efficient_cpu which might end up attempting the energy aware wake-up for a domain that does not see any asymmetry at all) Rework the way the capacity asymmetry levels are being detected, allowing to point to the lowest topology level (for a given CPU), where full set of available CPU capacities is visible to all CPUs within given domain. As a result, the per-cpu sd_asym_cpucapacity might differ across the domains. This will have an impact on EAS wake-up placement in a way that it might see different range of CPUs to be considered, depending on the given current and target CPUs. Additionally, those levels, where any range of asymmetry (not necessarily full) is being detected will get identified as well. The selected asymmetric topology level will be denoted by SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL sched domain flag whereas the 'sub-levels' would receive the already used SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag. This allows maintaining the current behaviour for asymmetric topologies, with misfit migration operating correctly on lower levels, if applicable, as any asymmetry is enough to trigger the misfit migration. The logic there relies on the SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag and does not relate to the full asymmetry level denoted by the sd_asym_cpucapacity pointer. Detecting the CPU capacity asymmetry is being based on a set of available CPU capacities for all possible CPUs. This data is being generated upon init and updated once CPU topology changes are being detected (through arch_update_cpu_topology). As such, any changes to identified CPU capacities (like initializing cpufreq) need to be explicitly advertised by corresponding archs to trigger rebuilding the data. Additional -dflags- parameter, used when building sched domains, has been removed as well, as the asymmetry flags are now being set directly in sd_init.

Race detected between psi_trigger_destroy/create as shown below, which cause panic by accessing invalid psi_system->poll_wait->wait_queue_entry and psi_system->poll_timer->entry->next. Under this modification, the race window is removed by initialising poll_wait and poll_timer in group_init which are executed only once at beginning. psi_trigger_destroy() psi_trigger_create() mutex_lock(trigger_lock); rcu_assign_pointer(poll_task, NULL); mutex_unlock(trigger_lock); mutex_lock(trigger_lock); if (!rcu_access_pointer(group->poll_task)) { timer_setup(poll_timer, poll_timer_fn, 0); rcu_assign_pointer(poll_task, task); } mutex_unlock(trigger_lock); synchronize_rcu(); del_timer_sync(poll_timer); <-- poll_timer has been reinitialized by psi_trigger_create() So, trigger_lock/RCU correctly protects destruction of group->poll_task but misses this race affecting poll_timer and poll_wait.

2021-06-24sched/fair: Introduce the burstable CFS controllerHuaixin Chang3-10/+73
The CFS bandwidth controller limits CPU requests of a task group to quota during each period. However, parallel workloads might be bursty so that they get throttled even when their average utilization is under quota. And they are latency sensitive at the same time so that throttling them is undesired. We borrow time now against our future underrun, at the cost of increased interference against the other system users. All nicely bounded. Traditional (UP-EDF) bandwidth control is something like: (U = \Sum u_i) <= 1 This guaranteeds both that every deadline is met and that the system is stable. After all, if U were > 1, then for every second of walltime, we'd have to run more than a second of program time, and obviously miss our deadline, but the next deadline will be further out still, there is never time to catch up, unbounded fail. This work observes that a workload doesn't always executes the full quota; this enables one to describe u_i as a statistical distribution. For example, have u_i = {x,e}_i, where x is the p(95) and x+e p(100) (the traditional WCET). This effectively allows u to be smaller, increasing the efficiency (we can pack more tasks in the system), but at the cost of missing deadlines when all the odds line up. However, it does maintain stability, since every overrun must be paired with an underrun as long as our x is above the average. That is, suppose we have 2 tasks, both specify a p(95) value, then we have a p(95)*p(95) = 90.25% chance both tasks are within their quota and everything is good. At the same time we have a p(5)p(5) = 0.25% chance both tasks will exceed their quota at the same time (guaranteed deadline fail). Somewhere in between there's a threshold where one exceeds and the other doesn't underrun enough to compensate; this depends on the specific CDFs. At the same time, we can say that the worst case deadline miss, will be \Sum e_i; that is, there is a bounded tardiness (under the assumption that x+e is indeed WCET). The benefit of burst is seen when testing with schbench. Default value of kernel.sched_cfs_bandwidth_slice_us(5ms) and CONFIG_HZ(1000) is used. mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cgroup.procs echo 100000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cpu.cfs_quota_us echo 100000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/cpu.cfs_burst_us ./schbench -m 1 -t 3 -r 20 -c 80000 -R 10 The average CPU usage is at 80%. I run this for 10 times, and got long tail latency for 6 times and got throttled for 8 times. Tail latencies are shown below, and it wasn't the worst case. Latency percentiles (usec) 50.0000th: 19872 75.0000th: 21344 90.0000th: 22176 95.0000th: 22496 *99.0000th: 22752 99.5000th: 22752 99.9000th: 22752 min=0, max=22727 rps: 9.90 p95 (usec) 22496 p99 (usec) 22752 p95/cputime 28.12% p99/cputime 28.44% The interferenece when using burst is valued by the possibilities for missing the deadline and the average WCET. Test results showed that when there many cgroups or CPU is under utilized, the interference is limited.

DL keeps track of the utilization on a per-rq basis with the structure avg_dl. This utilization is updated during task_tick_dl(), put_prev_task_dl() and set_next_task_dl(). However, when the current running task changes its policy, set_next_task_dl() which would usually take care of updating the utilization when the rq starts running DL tasks, will not see a such change, leaving the avg_dl structure outdated. When that very same task will be dequeued later, put_prev_task_dl() will then update the utilization, based on a wrong last_update_time, leading to a huge spike in the DL utilization signal. The signal would eventually recover from this issue after few ms. Even if no DL tasks are run, avg_dl is also updated in __update_blocked_others(). But as the CPU capacity depends partly on the avg_dl, this issue has nonetheless a significant impact on the scheduler.

2021-06-17sched/fair: Age the average idle timePeter Zijlstra3-4/+29
This is a partial forward-port of Peter Ziljstra's work first posted at: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180530142236.667774973@infradead.org/ Currently select_idle_cpu()'s proportional scheme uses the average idle time *for when we are idle*, that is temporally challenged. When a CPU is not at all idle, we'll happily continue using whatever value we did see when the CPU goes idle. To fix this, introduce a separate average idle and age it (the existing value still makes sense for things like new-idle balancing, which happens when we do go idle). The overall goal is to not spend more time scanning for idle CPUs than we're idle for. Otherwise we're inhibiting work. This means that we need to consider the cost over all the wake-ups between consecutive idle periods. To track this, the scan cost is subtracted from the estimated average idle time. The impact of this patch is related to workloads that have domains that are fully busy or overloaded. Without the patch, the scan depth may be too high because a CPU is not reaching idle. Due to the nature of the patch, this is a regression magnet. It potentially wins when domains are almost fully busy or overloaded -- at that point searches are likely to fail but idle is not being aged as CPUs are active so search depth is too large and useless. It will potentially show regressions when there are idle CPUs and a deep search is beneficial.

The patch potentially matters when a socket was multiple LLCs as the maximum search depth is lower. However, some of the test results were suspiciously good (e.g. specjbb2005 gaining 50% on a Zen1 machine) and other results were not dramatically different to other mcahines. Given the nature of the patch, Peter's full series is not being forward ported as each part should stand on its own. Preferably they would be merged at different times to reduce the risk of false bisections.

2021-06-17sched/cpufreq: Consider reduced CPU capacity in energy calculationLukasz Luba2-1/+2
Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) needs to predict the decisions made by SchedUtil. The map_util_freq() exists to do that. There are corner cases where the max allowed frequency might be reduced (due to thermal). SchedUtil as a CPUFreq governor, is aware of that but EAS is not. This patch aims to address it. SchedUtil stores the maximum allowed frequency in 'sugov_policy::next_freq' field. EAS has to predict that value, which is the real used frequency. That value is made after a call to cpufreq_driver_resolve_freq() which clamps to the CPUFreq policy limits. In the existing code EAS is not able to predict that real frequency. This leads to energy estimation errors. To avoid wrong energy estimation in EAS (due to frequency miss prediction) make sure that the step which calculates Performance Domain frequency, is also aware of the allowed CPU capacity. Furthermore, modify map_util_freq() to not extend the frequency value. Instead, use map_util_perf() to extend the util value in both places: SchedUtil and EAS, but for EAS clamp it to max allowed CPU capacity. In the end, we achieve the same desirable behavior for both subsystems and alignment in regards to the real CPU frequency.

2021-06-17sched/fair: Take thermal pressure into account while estimating energyLukasz Luba1-3/+8
Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) needs to be able to predict the frequency requests made by the SchedUtil governor to properly estimate energy used in the future. It has to take into account CPUs utilization and forecast Performance Domain (PD) frequency. There is a corner case when the max allowed frequency might be reduced due to thermal. SchedUtil is aware of that reduced frequency, so it should be taken into account also in EAS estimations. SchedUtil, as a CPUFreq governor, knows the maximum allowed frequency of a CPU, thanks to cpufreq_driver_resolve_freq() and internal clamping to 'policy::max'. SchedUtil is responsible to respect that upper limit while setting the frequency through CPUFreq drivers. This effective frequency is stored internally in 'sugov_policy::next_freq' and EAS has to predict that value. In the existing code the raw value of arch_scale_cpu_capacity() is used for clamping the returned CPU utilization from effective_cpu_util(). This patch fixes issue with too big single CPU utilization, by introducing clamping to the allowed CPU capacity. The allowed CPU capacity is a CPU capacity reduced by thermal pressure raw value. Thanks to knowledge about allowed CPU capacity, we don't get too big value for a single CPU utilization, which is then added to the util sum. The util sum is used as a source of information for estimating whole PD energy. To avoid wrong energy estimation in EAS (due to capped frequency), make sure that the calculation of util sum is aware of allowed CPU capacity. This thermal pressure might be visible in scenarios where the CPUs are not heavily loaded, but some other component (like GPU) drastically reduced available power budget and increased the SoC temperature. Thus, we still use EAS for task placement and CPUs are not over-utilized.

2021-06-14sched/fair: Correctly insert cfs_rq's to list on unthrottleOdin Ugedal1-19/+25
Fix an issue where fairness is decreased since cfs_rq's can end up not being decayed properly. For two sibling control groups with the same priority, this can often lead to a load ratio of 99/1 (!!). This happens because when a cfs_rq is throttled, all the descendant cfs_rq's will be removed from the leaf list. When they initial cfs_rq is unthrottled, it will currently only re add descendant cfs_rq's if they have one or more entities enqueued. This is not a perfect heuristic. Instead, we insert all cfs_rq's that contain one or more enqueued entities, or it its load is not completely decayed. Can often lead to situations like this for equally weighted control groups: $ ps u -C stress USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 10009 88.8 0.0 3676 100 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:13 stress --cpu 1 root 10023 3.0 0.0 3676 104 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:00 stress --cpu 1 Fixes: 31bc6aeaab1d ("sched/fair: Optimize update_blocked_averages()") [vingo: !SMP build fix] Signed-off-by: Odin Ugedal <odin@uged.al> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210612112815.61678-1-odin@uged.al

Commit 545fbd0775ba ("rq-qos: fix missed wake-ups in rq_qos_throttle") tried to fix a problem that a process could be sleeping in rq_qos_wait() without anyone to wake it up. However the fix is not complete and the following can still happen: CPU1 (waiter1) CPU2 (waiter2) CPU3 (waker) rq_qos_wait() rq_qos_wait() acquire_inflight_cb() -> fails acquire_inflight_cb() -> fails completes IOs, inflight decreased prepare_to_wait_exclusive() prepare_to_wait_exclusive() has_sleeper = !wq_has_single_sleeper() -> true as there are two sleepers has_sleeper = !wq_has_single_sleeper() -> true io_schedule() io_schedule() Deadlock as now there's nobody to wakeup the two waiters. The logic automatically blocking when there are already sleepers is really subtle and the only way to make it work reliably is that we check whether there are some waiters in the queue when adding ourselves there. That way, we are guaranteed that at least the first process to enter the wait queue will recheck the waiting condition before going to sleep and thus guarantee forward progress.

2021-06-08cgroup: make per-cgroup pressure stall tracking configurableSuren Baghdasaryan1-13/+17
PSI accounts stalls for each cgroup separately and aggregates it at each level of the hierarchy. This causes additional overhead with psi_avgs_work being called for each cgroup in the hierarchy. psi_avgs_work has been highly optimized, however on systems with large number of cgroups the overhead becomes noticeable. Systems which use PSI only at the system level could avoid this overhead if PSI can be configured to skip per-cgroup stall accounting. Add "cgroup_disable=pressure" kernel command-line option to allow requesting system-wide only pressure stall accounting. When set, it keeps system-wide accounting under /proc/pressure/ but skips accounting for individual cgroups and does not expose PSI nodes in cgroup hierarchy.

The util_est internal UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED flag which is used to prevent unnecessary util_est updates uses the LSB of util_est.enqueued. It is exposed via _task_util_est() (and task_util_est()). Commit 92a801e5d5b7 ("sched/fair: Mask UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED usages") mentions that the LSB is lost for util_est resolution but find_energy_efficient_cpu() checks if task_util_est() returns 0 to return prev_cpu early. _task_util_est() returns the max value of util_est.ewma and util_est.enqueued or'ed w/ UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED. So task_util_est() returning the max of task_util() and _task_util_est() will never return 0 under the default SCHED_FEAT(UTIL_EST, true). To fix this use the MSB of util_est.enqueued instead and keep the flag util_est internal, i.e. don't export it via _task_util_est(). The maximal possible util_avg value for a task is 1024 so the MSB of 'unsigned int util_est.enqueued' isn't used to store a util value. As a caveat the code behind the util_est_se trace point has to filter UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED to see the real util_est.enqueued value which should be easy to do. This also fixes an issue report by Xuewen Yan that util_est_update() only used UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED for the subtrahend of the equation: last_enqueued_diff = ue.enqueued - (task_util() | UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED) Fixes: b89997aa88f0b sched/pelt: Fix task util_est update filtering Signed-off-by: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Xuewen Yan <xuewen.yan@unisoc.com> Reviewed-by: Vincent Donnefort <vincent.donnefort@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210602145808.1562603-1-dietmar.eggemann@arm.com

cpu_cgroup_css_online() calls cpu_util_update_eff() without holding the uclamp_mutex or rcu_read_lock() like other call sites, which is a mistake. The uclamp_mutex is required to protect against concurrent reads and writes that could update the cgroup hierarchy. The rcu_read_lock() is required to traverse the cgroup data structures in cpu_util_update_eff(). Surround the caller with the required locks and add some asserts to better document the dependency in cpu_util_update_eff().

2021-05-19sched/uclamp: Fix wrong implementation of cpu.uclamp.minQais Yousef1-4/+17
cpu.uclamp.min is a protection as described in cgroup-v2 Resource Distribution Model Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst which means we try our best to preserve the minimum performance point of tasks in this group. See full description of cpu.uclamp.min in the cgroup-v2.rst. But the current implementation makes it a limit, which is not what was intended. For example: tg->cpu.uclamp.min = 20% p0->uclamp[UCLAMP_MIN] = 0 p1->uclamp[UCLAMP_MIN] = 50% Previous Behavior (limit): p0->effective_uclamp = 0 p1->effective_uclamp = 20% New Behavior (Protection): p0->effective_uclamp = 20% p1->effective_uclamp = 50% Which is inline with how protections should work. With this change the cgroup and per-task behaviors are the same, as expected. Additionally, we remove the confusing relationship between cgroup and !user_defined flag. We don't want for example RT tasks that are boosted by default to max to change their boost value when they attach to a cgroup. If a cgroup wants to limit the max performance point of tasks attached to it, then cpu.uclamp.max must be set accordingly. Or if they want to set different boost value based on cgroup, then sysctl_sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default must be used to NOT boost to max and set the right cpu.uclamp.min for each group to let the RT tasks obtain the desired boost value when attached to that group. As it stands the dependency on !user_defined flag adds an extra layer of complexity that is not required now cpu.uclamp.min behaves properly as a protection. The propagation model of effective cpu.uclamp.min in child cgroups as implemented by cpu_util_update_eff() is still correct. The parent protection sets an upper limit of what the child cgroups will effectively get.

2021-05-18sched: Make the idle task quack like a per-CPU kthreadValentin Schneider1-6/+15
For all intents and purposes, the idle task is a per-CPU kthread. It isn't created via the same route as other pcpu kthreads however, and as a result it is missing a few bells and whistles: it fails kthread_is_per_cpu() and it doesn't have PF_NO_SETAFFINITY set. Fix the former by giving the idle task a kthread struct along with the KTHREAD_IS_PER_CPU flag. This requires some extra iffery as init_idle() call be called more than once on the same idle task.

2021-05-13tick/nohz: Kick only _queued_ task whose tick dependency is updatedMarcelo Tosatti1-0/+5
When the tick dependency of a task is updated, we want it to aknowledge the new state and restart the tick if needed. If the task is not running, we don't need to kick it because it will observe the new dependency upon scheduling in. But if the task is running, we may need to send an IPI to it so that it gets notified. Unfortunately we don't have the means to check if a task is running in a race free way. Checking p->on_cpu in a synchronized way against p->tick_dep_mask would imply adding a full barrier between prepare_task_switch() and tick_nohz_task_switch(), which we want to avoid in this fast-path. Therefore we blindly fire an IPI to the task's CPU. Meanwhile we can check if the task is queued on the CPU rq because p->on_rq is always set to TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED _before_ schedule() and its full barrier that precedes tick_nohz_task_switch(). And if the task is queued on a nohz_full CPU, it also has fair chances to be running as the isolation constraints prescribe running single tasks on full dynticks CPUs. So use this as a trick to check if we can spare an IPI toward a non-running task. NOTE: For the ordering to be correct, it is assumed that we never deactivate a task while it is running, the only exception being the task deactivating itself while scheduling out.

2021-05-13sched/isolation: Reconcile rcu_nocbs= and nohz_full=Paul Gortmaker1-3/+1
We have a mismatch between RCU and isolation -- in relation to what is considered the maximum valid CPU number. This matters because nohz_full= and rcu_nocbs= are joined at the hip; in fact the former will enforce the latter. So we don't want a CPU mask to be valid for one and denied for the other. The difference 1st appeared as of v4.15; further details are below. As it is confusing to anyone who isn't looking at the code regularly, a reminder is in order; three values exist here: CONFIG_NR_CPUS - compiled in maximum cap on number of CPUs supported. nr_cpu_ids - possible # of CPUs (typically reflects what ACPI says) cpus_present - actual number of present/detected/installed CPUs. For this example, I'll refer to NR_CPUS=64 from "make defconfig" and nr_cpu_ids=6 for ACPI reporting on a board that could run a six core, and present=4 for a quad that is physically in the socket. From dmesg: smpboot: Allowing 6 CPUs, 2 hotplug CPUs setup_percpu: NR_CPUS:64 nr_cpumask_bits:64 nr_cpu_ids:6 nr_node_ids:1 rcu: RCU restricting CPUs from NR_CPUS=64 to nr_cpu_ids=6. smp: Brought up 1 node, 4 CPUs And from userspace, see: paul@trash:/sys/devices/system/cpu$ cat present 0-3 paul@trash:/sys/devices/system/cpu$ cat possible 0-5 paul@trash:/sys/devices/system/cpu$ cat kernel_max 63 Everything is fine if we boot 5x5 for rcu/nohz: Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage nohz_full=2-5 rcu_nocbs=2-5 root=/dev/sda1 ro NO_HZ: Full dynticks CPUs: 2-5. rcu: Offload RCU callbacks from CPUs: 2-5. ..even though there is no CPU 4 or 5. Both RCU and nohz_full are OK. Now we push that > 6 but less than NR_CPU and with 15x15 we get: Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage rcu_nocbs=2-15 nohz_full=2-15 root=/dev/sda1 ro rcu: Note: kernel parameter 'rcu_nocbs=', 'nohz_full', or 'isolcpus=' contains nonexistent CPUs. rcu: Offload RCU callbacks from CPUs: 2-5. These are both functionally equivalent, as we are only changing flags on phantom CPUs that don't exist, but note the kernel interpretation changes. And worse, it only changes for one of the two - which is the problem. RCU doesn't care if you want to restrict the flags on phantom CPUs but clearly nohz_full does after this change from v4.15. edb9382175c3: ("sched/isolation: Move isolcpus= handling to the housekeeping code") - if (cpulist_parse(str, non_housekeeping_mask) < 0) { - pr_warn("Housekeeping: Incorrect nohz_full cpumask\n"); + err = cpulist_parse(str, non_housekeeping_mask); + if (err < 0 || cpumask_last(non_housekeeping_mask) >= nr_cpu_ids) { + pr_warn("Housekeeping: nohz_full= or isolcpus= incorrect CPU range\n"); To be clear, the sanity check on "possible" (nr_cpu_ids) is new here. The goal was reasonable ; not wanting housekeeping to land on a not-possible CPU, but note two things: 1) this is an exclusion list, not an inclusion list; we are tracking non_housekeeping CPUs; not ones who are explicitly assigned housekeeping 2) we went one further in 9219565aa890 ("sched/isolation: Require a present CPU in housekeeping mask") - ensuring that housekeeping was sanity checking against present and not just possible CPUs. To be clear, this means the check added in v4.15 is doubly redundant. And more importantly, overly strict/restrictive. We care now, because the bitmap boot arg parsing now knows that a value of "N" is NR_CPUS; the size of the bitmap, but the bitmap code doesn't know anything about the subtleties of our max/possible/present CPU specifics as outlined above. So drop the check added in v4.15 (edb9382175c3) and make RCU and nohz_full both in alignment again on NR_CPUS so "N" works for both, and then they can fall back to nr_cpu_ids internally just as before. Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage nohz_full=2-N rcu_nocbs=2-N root=/dev/sda1 ro NO_HZ: Full dynticks CPUs: 2-5. rcu: Offload RCU callbacks from CPUs: 2-5. As shown above, with this change, RCU and nohz_full are in sync, even with the use of the "N" placeholder. Same result is achieved with "15".
