Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini: "First batch of KVM changes for 4.4. s390: A bunch of fixes and optimizations for interrupt and time handling. PPC: Mostly bug fixes. ARM: No big features, but many small fixes and prerequisites including: - a number of fixes for the arch-timer - introducing proper level-triggered semantics for the arch-timers - a series of patches to synchronously halt a guest (prerequisite for IRQ forwarding) - some tracepoint improvements - a tweak for the EL2 panic handlers - some more VGIC cleanups getting rid of redundant state x86: Quite a few changes: - support for VT-d posted interrupts (i.e. PCI devices can inject interrupts directly into vCPUs). This introduces a new component (in virt/lib/) that connects VFIO and KVM together. The same infrastructure will be used for ARM interrupt forwarding as well. - more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic interrupt controller will have to wait for 4.5. These will let KVM expose Hyper-V devices. - nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for vCPUs) which makes it quite a bit faster - for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for clflushopt, clwb, pcommit - support for "split irqchip", i.e. LAPIC in kernel + IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in userspace, which reduces the attack surface of the hypervisor - obligatory smattering of SMM fixes - on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten to not require help from the hypervisor" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (123 commits) KVM: VMX: Fix commit which broke PML KVM: x86: obey KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED in kvm_set_cr0() KVM: x86: allow RSM from 64-bit mode KVM: VMX: fix SMEP and SMAP without EPT KVM: x86: move kvm_set_irq_inatomic to legacy device assignment KVM: device assignment: remove pointless #ifdefs KVM: x86: merge kvm_arch_set_irq with kvm_set_msi_inatomic KVM: x86: zero apic_arb_prio on reset drivers/hv: share Hyper-V SynIC constants with userspace KVM: x86: handle SMBASE as physical address in RSM KVM: x86: add read_phys to x86_emulate_ops KVM: x86: removing unused variable KVM: don't pointlessly leave KVM_COMPAT=y in non-KVM configs KVM: arm/arm64: Merge vgic_set_lr() and vgic_sync_lr_elrsr() KVM: arm/arm64: Clean up vgic_retire_lr() and surroundings KVM: arm/arm64: Optimize away redundant LR tracking KVM: s390: use simple switch statement as multiplexer KVM: s390: drop useless newline in debugging data KVM: s390: SCA must not cross page boundaries KVM: arm: Do not indent the arguments of DECLARE_BITMAP ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: "The cgroup core saw several significant updates this cycle: - percpu_rwsem for threadgroup locking is reinstated. This was temporarily dropped due to down_write latency issues. Oleg's rework of percpu_rwsem which is scheduled to be merged in this merge window resolves the issue. - On the v2 hierarchy, when controllers are enabled and disabled, all operations are atomic and can fail and revert cleanly. This allows ->can_attach() failure which is necessary for cpu RT slices. - Tasks now stay associated with the original cgroups after exit until released. This allows tracking resources held by zombies (e.g. pids) and makes it easy to find out where zombies came from on the v2 hierarchy. The pids controller was broken before these changes as zombies escaped the limits; unfortunately, updating this behavior required too many invasive changes and I don't think it's a good idea to backport them, so the pids controller on 4.3, the first version which included the pids controller, will stay broken at least until I'm sure about the cgroup core changes. - Optimization of a couple common tests using static_key" * 'for-4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: (38 commits) cgroup: fix race condition around termination check in css_task_iter_next() blkcg: don't create "io.stat" on the root cgroup cgroup: drop cgroup__DEVEL__legacy_files_on_dfl cgroup: replace error handling in cgroup_init() with WARN_ON()s cgroup: add cgroup_subsys->free() method and use it to fix pids controller cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups cgroup: make css_set_rwsem a spinlock and rename it to css_set_lock cgroup: don't hold css_set_rwsem across css task iteration cgroup: reorganize css_task_iter functions cgroup: factor out css_set_move_task() cgroup: keep css_set and task lists in chronological order cgroup: make cgroup_destroy_locked() test cgroup_is_populated() cgroup: make css_sets pin the associated cgroups cgroup: relocate cgroup_[try]get/put() cgroup: move check_for_release() invocation cgroup: replace cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated() cgroup: make cgroup->nr_populated count the number of populated css_sets cgroup: remove an unused parameter from cgroup_task_migrate() cgroup: fix too early usage of static_branch_disable() cgroup: make cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomically ...

2015-10-20sched/deadline: Fix migration of SCHED_DEADLINE tasksLuca Abeni1-3/+5
Commit: 9d5142624256 ("sched/deadline: Reduce rq lock contention by eliminating locking of non-feasible target") broke select_task_rq_dl() and find_lock_later_rq(), because it introduced a comparison between the local task's deadline and dl.earliest_dl.curr of the remote queue. However, if the remote runqueue does not contain any SCHED_DEADLINE task its earliest_dl.curr is 0 (always smaller than the deadline of the local task) and the remote runqueue is not selected for pushing. As a result, if an application creates multiple SCHED_DEADLINE threads, they will never be pushed to runqueues that do not already contain SCHED_DEADLINE tasks. This patch fixes the issue by checking if dl.dl_nr_running == 0.

2015-10-20nohz: Revert "nohz: Set isolcpus when nohz_full is set"Frederic Weisbecker1-3/+0
This reverts: 8cb9764fc88b ("nohz: Set isolcpus when nohz_full is set") We assumed that full-nohz users always want scheduler isolation on full dynticks CPUs, therefore we included full-nohz CPUs on cpu_isolated_map. This means that tasks run by default on CPUs outside the nohz_full range unless their affinity is explicity overwritten. This suits pure isolation workloads but when the machine is needed to run common workloads, the available sets of CPUs to run common tasks becomes reduced. We reach an extreme case when CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL is enabled as it leaves only CPU 0 for non-isolation tasks, which makes people think that their supercomputer regressed to 90's UP - which is true in a sense. Some full-nohz users appear to be interested in running normal workloads either before or after an isolation workload. Full-nohz isn't optimized toward normal workloads but it's still better than UP performance. We are reaching a limitation in kernel presets here. Lets revert this cpu_isolated_map inclusion and let userspace do its own scheduler isolation using cpusets or explicit affinity settings.

When cfs_rq has cfs_rq->removed_load_avg set (when a task migrates from this cfs_rq), we need to update its contribution to the group's load_avg. This should not increase tg's update too much, because in most cases, the cfs_rq has already decayed its load_avg.

2015-10-20sched/fair: Fix overly small weight for interactive group entitiesYuyang Du1-2/+2
Commit: 9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking") led to an overly small weight for interactive group entities. The bad case can be easily reproduced when a number of CPU hogs compete for the CPUs at the same time (thanks to Mike). This is largly because the task group's load average tracking cross CPUs lags behind the real changes. To fix this we accelerate the group share distribution process by using the load.weight of the cfs_rq. This may increase the entire group's share, but we have to do so to protect the (fragile) interactive tasks, especially from CPU hogs.

2015-10-15cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroupsTejun Heo1-16/+0
cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup. This is unnecessary and undesirable. No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with non-root cgroups. Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep consistent with the cgroup core behavior. Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held by zombies or determine where the zombies came from. Currently, pids controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies always escape the resource restriction. With cgroup association being reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful. There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit. The zombie can be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on "cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup removal. It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup membership is maintained. This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies associated with their cgroups at the time of exit. * Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set while pinning and pointing to the css_set. This keeps css_set association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs" and populated_cnt tracking. The css_set reference is dropped when the task_struct is freed. * ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set. Removed. * cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks. There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit. The final schedule out is enough. The callbacks are removed. * On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes. "/proc/PID/cgroup" still reports "/" for all zombies. On the default hierarchy, "/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged to at the time of exit. If the cgroup gets removed before the task is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended. v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when !CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

2015-10-12sched, tracing: Stop/start critical timings around the idle=poll idle loopDaniel Bristot de Oliveira1-0/+2
When using idle=poll, the preemptoff tracer is always showing the idle task as the culprit for long latencies. That happens because critical timings are not stopped before idle loop. This patch stops critical timings before entering the idle loop, starting it again after the idle loop. This problem does not affect the irqsoff tracer because interruptions are enabled before entering the idle loop.

(2) PPC and MIPS, which HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON, do not rely on branch predictions as it seems to be pointless [1] and thus callers should not be trying to push an optimization in the first place.

If static branch 'sched_numa_balancing' is enabled, it should kickstart NUMA balancing through task_tick_numa(). However the following commit: 2a595721a1fa ("sched/numa: Convert sched_numa_balancing to a static_branch") erroneously disables this.

preempt_schedule_common() is marked notrace, but it does not use _notrace() preempt_count functions and __schedule() is also not marked notrace, which means that its perfectly possible to end up in the tracer from preempt_schedule_common(). Steve says: | Yep, there's some history to this. This was originally the issue that | caused function tracing to go into infinite recursion. But now we have | preempt_schedule_notrace(), which is used by the function tracer, and | that function must not be traced till preemption is disabled. | | Now if function tracing is running and we take an interrupt when | NEED_RESCHED is set, it calls | | preempt_schedule_common() (not traced) | | But then that calls preempt_disable() (traced) | | function tracer calls preempt_disable_notrace() followed by | preempt_enable_notrace() which will see NEED_RESCHED set, and it will | call preempt_schedule_notrace(), which stops the recursion, but | still calls __schedule() here, and that means when we return, we call | the __schedule() from preempt_schedule_common(). | | That said, I prefer this patch.

When we warn about a preempt_count leak; reset the preempt_count to the known good value such that the problem does not ripple forward. This is most important on x86 which has a per cpu preempt_count that is not saved/restored (after this series). So if you schedule with an invalid (!2*PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET) preempt_count the next task is messed up too. Enforcing this invariant limits the borkage to just the one task.

Assuming units of PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET for preempt_count() numbers. Now that TASK_DEAD no longer results in preempt_count() == 3 during scheduling, we will always call context_switch() with preempt_count() == 2. However, we don't always end up with preempt_count() == 2 in finish_task_switch() because new tasks get created with preempt_count() == 1. Create FORK_PREEMPT_COUNT and set it to 2 and use that in the right places. Note that we cannot use INIT_PREEMPT_COUNT as that serves another purpose (boot). After this, preempt_count() is invariant across the context switch, with exception of PREEMPT_ACTIVE.

2015-10-06sched/core: Fix TASK_DEAD race in finish_task_switch()Peter Zijlstra2-7/+8
So the problem this patch is trying to address is as follows: CPU0 CPU1 context_switch(A, B) ttwu(A) LOCK A->pi_lock A->on_cpu == 0 finish_task_switch(A) prev_state = A->state <-. WMB | A->on_cpu = 0; | UNLOCK rq0->lock | | context_switch(C, A) `-- A->state = TASK_DEAD prev_state == TASK_DEAD put_task_struct(A) context_switch(A, C) finish_task_switch(A) A->state == TASK_DEAD put_task_struct(A) The argument being that the WMB will allow the load of A->state on CPU0 to cross over and observe CPU1's store of A->state, which will then result in a double-drop and use-after-free. Now the comment states (and this was true once upon a long time ago) that we need to observe A->state while holding rq->lock because that will order us against the wakeup; however the wakeup will not in fact acquire (that) rq->lock; it takes A->pi_lock these days. We can obviously fix this by upgrading the WMB to an MB, but that is expensive, so we'd rather avoid that. The alternative this patch takes is: smp_store_release(&A->on_cpu, 0), which avoids the MB on some archs, but not important ones like ARM.

2015-09-18sched: access local runqueue directly in single_task_runningDominik Dingel1-4/+11
Commit 2ee507c47293 ("sched: Add function single_task_running to let a task check if it is the only task running on a cpu") referenced the current runqueue with the smp_processor_id. When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled, that is only allowed if preemption is disabled or the currrent task is bound to the local cpu (e.g. kernel worker). With commit f78195129963 ("kvm: add halt_poll_ns module parameter") KVM calls single_task_running. If CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled that generates a lot of kernel messages. To avoid adding preemption in that cases, as it would limit the usefulness, we change single_task_running to access directly the cpu local runqueue.

2015-09-18sched/numa: Limit the amount of virtual memory scanned in task_numa_work()Rik van Riel1-6/+12
Currently task_numa_work() scans up to numa_balancing_scan_size_mb worth of memory per invocation, but only counts memory areas that have at least one PTE that is still present and not marked for numa hint faulting. It will skip over arbitarily large amounts of memory that are either unused, full of swap ptes, or full of PTEs that were already marked for NUMA hint faults but have not been faulted on yet. This can cause excessive amounts of CPU use, due to there being essentially no upper limit on the scan rate of very large processes that are not yet in a phase where they are actively accessing old memory pages (eg. they are still initializing their data). Avoid that problem by placing an upper limit on the amount of virtual memory that task_numa_work() scans in each invocation. This can be a higher limit than "pages", to ensure the task still skips over unused areas fairly quickly. While we are here, also fix the "nr_pte_updates" logic, so it only counts page ranges with ptes in them.

Sasha reports that his virtual machine tries to schedule the idle thread since commit 6c37067e2786 ("sched: Change the sched_class::set_cpus_allowed() calling context"). Hit trace shows this happening from idle_thread_get()->init_idle(), which is the _second_ init_idle() invocation on that task_struct, the first being done through idle_init()->fork_idle(). (this code is insane...) Because we call init_idle() twice in a row, its ->sched_class == &idle_sched_class and ->on_rq = TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED. This means do_set_cpus_allowed() think we're queued and will call dequeue_task(), which is implemented with BUG() for the idle class, seeing how dequeueing the idle task is a daft thing. Aside of the whole insanity of calling init_idle() _twice_, change the code to call set_cpus_allowed_common() instead as this is 'obviously' before the idle task gets ran etc..

2015-09-13sched/fair: Optimize per entity utilization trackingPeter Zijlstra1-7/+10
Currently the load_{sum,avg} and util_{sum,avg} tracking is asymmetric in that load tracking gets a 2^10 unit from the weight, but util gets no such factor. This results in more lost bits for util scaling and asymmetric scaling rules. Fix this by removing shifts, such that we gain the 2^10 factor from scaling. There is no risk of overflowing the u32 as the max value is now LOAD_AVG_MAX << 10, which is still well below UINT_MAX. This further entangles the assumption that both LOAD and CAPACITY shifts are the same (and 10) so put in an assertion for that. This fixes the math for the LOAD_RESOLUTION != 0 case.

2015-09-13sched/fair: Optimize __update_load_avg()Peter Zijlstra1-1/+1
Prior to this patch; the line: scaled_delta_w = (delta_w * 1024) >> 10; which is the result of the default arch_scale_freq_capacity() function, turns into: 1b03: 49 89 d1 mov %rdx,%r9 1b06: 49 c1 e1 0a shl $0xa,%r9 1b0a: 49 c1 e9 0a shr $0xa,%r9 Which is silly; when made unsigned int, GCC recognises this as pointless ops and fails to emit them (confirmed on 4.9.3 and 5.1.1). Furthermore, afaict unsigned is actually the correct type for these fields anyway, as we've explicitly ruled out negative delta's earlier in this function.

2015-09-13sched/fair: Rename scale() to cap_scale()Peter Zijlstra1-7/+7
Rename scale() to cap_scale() to better reflect its purpose, it is after all not a general purpose scale function, it has SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT hardcoded in it.
