A panic was discovered by Chirag Jog where a BUG_ON sanity check
in the new "pushable_task" logic would trigger a panic under
certain circumstances:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/25/189
Gilles Carry discovered that the root cause was attributed to the
pushable_tasks list getting corrupted in the push_rt_task logic.
This was the result of a dropped rq lock in double_lock_balance
allowing a task in the process of being pushed to potentially migrate
away, and thus corrupt the pushable_tasks() list.
I traced back the problem as introduced by the pushable_tasks patch
that went in recently. There is a "retry" path in push_rt_task()
that actually had a compound conditional to decide whether to
retry or exit. I missed the meaning behind the rationale for the
virtual "if(!task) goto out;" portion of the compound statement and
thus did not handle it properly. The new pushable_tasks logic
actually creates three distinct conditions:
1) an untouched and unpushable task should be dequeued
2) a migrated task where more pushable tasks remain should be retried
3) a migrated task where no more pushable tasks exist should exit
The original logic mushed (1) and (3) together, resulting in the
system dequeuing a migrated task (against an unlocked foreign run-queue
nonetheless).
To fix this, we get rid of the notion of "paranoid" and we support the
three unique conditions properly. The paranoid feature is no longer
relevant with the new pushable logic (since pushable naturally limits
the loop) anyway, so lets just remove it.

The RT scheduler employs a "push/pull" design to actively balance tasks
within the system (on a per disjoint cpuset basis). When a task is
awoken, it is immediately determined if there are any lower priority
cpus which should be preempted. This is opposed to the way normal
SCHED_OTHER tasks behave, which will wait for a periodic rebalancing
operation to occur before spreading out load.
When a particular RQ has more than 1 active RT task, it is said to
be in an "overloaded" state. Once this occurs, the system enters
the active balancing mode, where it will try to push the task away,
or persuade a different cpu to pull it over. The system will stay
in this state until the system falls back below the <= 1 queued RT
task per RQ.
However, the current implementation suffers from a limitation in the
push logic. Once overloaded, all tasks (other than current) on the
RQ are analyzed on every push operation, even if it was previously
unpushable (due to affinity, etc). Whats more, the operation stops
at the first task that is unpushable and will not look at items
lower in the queue. This causes two problems:
1) We can have the same tasks analyzed over and over again during each
push, which extends out the fast path in the scheduler for no
gain. Consider a RQ that has dozens of tasks that are bound to a
core. Each one of those tasks will be encountered and skipped
for each push operation while they are queued.
2) There may be lower-priority tasks under the unpushable task that
could have been successfully pushed, but will never be considered
until either the unpushable task is cleared, or a pull operation
succeeds. The net result is a potential latency source for mid
priority tasks.
This patch aims to rectify these two conditions by introducing a new
priority sorted list: "pushable_tasks". A task is added to the list
each time a task is activated or preempted. It is removed from the
list any time it is deactivated, made current, or fails to push.
This works because a task only needs to be attempted to push once.
After an initial failure to push, the other cpus will eventually try to
pull the task when the conditions are proper. This also solves the
problem that we don't completely analyze all tasks due to encountering
an unpushable tasks. Now every task will have a push attempted (when
appropriate).
This reduces latency both by shorting the critical section of the
rq->lock for certain workloads, and by making sure the algorithm
considers all eligible tasks in the system.

We currently run class->post_schedule() outside of the rq->lock, which
means that we need to test for the need to post_schedule outside of
the lock to avoid a forced reacquistion. This is currently not a problem
as we only look at rq->rt.overloaded. However, we want to enhance this
going forward to look at more state to reduce the need to post_schedule to
a bare minimum set. Therefore, we introduce a new member-func called
needs_post_schedule() which tests for the post_schedule condtion without
actually performing the work. Therefore it is safe to call this
function before the rq->lock is released, because we are guaranteed not
to drop the lock at an intermediate point (such as what post_schedule()
may do).
We will use this later in the series

double_lock balance() currently favors logically lower cpus since they
often do not have to release their own lock to acquire a second lock.
The result is that logically higher cpus can get starved when there is
a lot of pressure on the RQs. This can result in higher latencies on
higher cpu-ids.
This patch makes the algorithm more fair by forcing all paths to have
to release both locks before acquiring them again. Since callsites to
double_lock_balance already consider it a potential preemption/reschedule
point, they have the proper logic to recheck for atomicity violations.

There is no sense in wasting time trying to push a task away that
cannot move anywhere else. We gain no benefit from trying to push
other tasks at this point, so if the task being woken up is non
migratable, just skip the whole operation. This reduces overhead
in the wakeup path for certain tasks.

We currently take the rq->lock for every cpu in an overload state during
pull_rt_tasks(). However, we now have enough information via the
highest_prio.[curr|next] fields to determine if there is any tasks of
interest to warrant the overhead of the rq->lock, before we actually take
it. So we use this information to reduce lock contention during the
pull for the case where the source-rq doesnt have tasks that preempt
the current task.
Signed-off-by: Gregory Haskins <ghaskins@novell.com>
highest_prio.curr is actually a more accurate way to keep track of
the pull_rt_task() threshold since it is always up to date, even
if the "next" task migrates during double_lock. Therefore, stop
looking at the "next" task object and simply use the highest_prio.curr.

Impact: extend the tracing API
The goal of this patch is to normalize and make more easy the
implementation of statistical (histogram) tracing.
It implements a trace_stat file into the /debugfs/tracing directory where
one can print a one-shot output of statistics/histogram entries.
A tracer has to provide two basic iterator callbacks:
stat_start() => the first entry
stat_next(prev, idx) => the next one.
Note that it is adapted for arrays or hash tables or lists.... since it
provides a pointer to the previous entry and the current index of the
iterator.
These two callbacks are called to get a snapshot of the statistics at each
opening of the trace_stat file because. The values are so updated between
two "cat trace_stat". And the tracer is free to lock its datas during the
iteration to keep consistent values.
Since it is almost always interesting to sort statisticals values to
address the problems by priority, this infrastructure provides a "sorting"
of the stat entries too if desired. A tracer has just to provide a
stat_cmp callback to compare two entries and the stat tracing
infrastructure will build a sorted list of the given entries.
A last callback, called stat_headers, can be implemented by a tracer to
output headers on its trace.
If one of these callbacks is changed on runtime, it just have to signal it
to the stat tracing API by calling the init_tracer_stat() helper.
Changes in V2:
- Fix a memory leak if the user opens multiple times the trace_stat file
without closing it. Now we always free our list before rebuilding it.
