Matthias Kaehlcke a9903f04e0 sched/sysctl: Fix attributes of some extern declarations
The definition of sysctl_sched_migration_cost, sysctl_sched_nr_migrate
and sysctl_sched_time_avg includes the attribute const_debug. This
attribute is not part of the extern declaration of these variables in
include/linux/sched/sysctl.h, while it is in kernel/sched/sched.h,
and as a result Clang generates warnings like this:

  kernel/sched/sched.h:1618:33: warning: section attribute is specified on redeclared variable [-Wsection]
  extern const_debug unsigned int sysctl_sched_time_avg;
                                ^
  ./include/linux/sched/sysctl.h:42:21: note: previous declaration is here
  extern unsigned int sysctl_sched_time_avg;

The header only declares the variables when CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG is defined,
therefore it is not necessary to duplicate the definition of const_debug.
Instead we can use the attribute __read_mostly, which is the expansion of
const_debug when CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y is set.

Frederic Weisbecker b0d40d2b22 sched/isolation: Document isolcpus= boot parameter flags, mark it deprecated
Document the latest updates on the isolcpus= boot option. While at it,
let's also fix the details about the preferred way to isolate a set of
CPUs from the scheduler general domains. Cpusets offer a much better
interface to achieve that.

Frederic Weisbecker 150dfee95f sched/isolation: Add basic isolcpus flags
Add flags to control NOHZ and domain isolation from "isolcpus=", in
order to centralize the isolation features to a common interface. Domain
isolation remains the default so not to break the existing isolcpus
boot paramater behaviour.

Further flags in the future may include 0hz (1hz tick offload) and timers,
workqueue, RCU, kthread, watchdog, likely all merged together in a
common flag ("async"?). In any case, this will have to be modifiable by
cpusets.

Frederic Weisbecker edb9382175 sched/isolation: Move isolcpus= handling to the housekeeping code
We want to centralize the isolation features, to be done by the housekeeping
subsystem and scheduler domain isolation is a significant part of it.

No intended behaviour change, we just reuse the housekeeping cpumask

Frederic Weisbecker 6f1982fedd sched/isolation: Handle the nohz_full= parameter
We want to centralize the isolation management, done by the housekeeping
subsystem. Therefore we need to handle the nohz_full= parameter from
there.

Since nohz_full= so far has involved unbound timers, watchdog, RCU
and tilegx NAPI isolation, we keep that default behaviour.

nohz_full= will be deprecated in the future. We want to control
the isolation features from the isolcpus= parameter.

Frederic Weisbecker de201559df sched/isolation: Introduce housekeeping flags
Before we implement isolcpus under housekeeping, we need the isolation
features to be more finegrained. For example some people want NOHZ_FULL
without the full scheduler isolation, others want full scheduler
isolation without NOHZ_FULL.

So let's cut all these isolation features piecewise, at the risk of
overcutting it right now. We can still merge some flags later if they
always make sense together.

Rakib Mullick e22cdc3fc5 sched/isolcpus: Fix "isolcpus=" boot parameter handling when !CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK
cpulist_parse() uses nr_cpumask_bits as a limit to parse the
passed buffer from kernel commandline. What nr_cpumask_bits
represents varies depending upon the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK option:

 - If CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n, then nr_cpumask_bits is the same as
   NR_CPUS, which might not represent the # of CPUs that really exist
   (default 64). So, there's a chance of a gap between nr_cpu_ids
   and NR_CPUS, which ultimately lead towards invalid cpulist_parse()
   operation. For example, if isolcpus=9 is passed on an 8 cpu
   system (CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n) it doesn't show the error
   that it's supposed to.

This patch fixes this bug by finding the last CPU of the passed
isolcpus= list and checking it against nr_cpu_ids.

It also fixes the error message where the nr_cpu_ids should be
nr_cpu_ids-1, since CPU numbering starts from 0.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 4bdced5c9a sched/rt: Simplify the IPI based RT balancing logic
When a CPU lowers its priority (schedules out a high priority task for a
lower priority one), a check is made to see if any other CPU has overloaded
RT tasks (more than one). It checks the rto_mask to determine this and if so
it will request to pull one of those tasks to itself if the non running RT
task is of higher priority than the new priority of the next task to run on
the current CPU.

When we deal with large number of CPUs, the original pull logic suffered
from large lock contention on a single CPU run queue, which caused a huge
latency across all CPUs. This was caused by only having one CPU having
overloaded RT tasks and a bunch of other CPUs lowering their priority. To
solve this issue, commit:

  b6366f048e ("sched/rt: Use IPI to trigger RT task push migration instead of pulling")

changed the way to request a pull. Instead of grabbing the lock of the
overloaded CPU's runqueue, it simply sent an IPI to that CPU to do the work.

Although the IPI logic worked very well in removing the large latency build
up, it still could suffer from a large number of IPIs being sent to a single
CPU. On a 80 CPU box, I measured over 200us of processing IPIs. Worse yet,
when I tested this on a 120 CPU box, with a stress test that had lots of
RT tasks scheduling on all CPUs, it actually triggered the hard lockup
detector! One CPU had so many IPIs sent to it, and due to the restart
mechanism that is triggered when the source run queue has a priority status
change, the CPU spent minutes! processing the IPIs.

Thinking about this further, I realized there's no reason for each run queue
to send its own IPI. As all CPUs with overloaded tasks must be scanned
regardless if there's one or many CPUs lowering their priority, because
there's no current way to find the CPU with the highest priority task that
can schedule to one of these CPUs, there really only needs to be one IPI
being sent around at a time.

This greatly simplifies the code!

The new approach is to have each root domain have its own irq work, as the
rto_mask is per root domain. The root domain has the following fields
attached to it:

  rto_push_work	 - the irq work to process each CPU set in rto_mask
  rto_lock	 - the lock to protect some of the other rto fields
  rto_loop_start - an atomic that keeps contention down on rto_lock
		    the first CPU scheduling in a lower priority task
		    is the one to kick off the process.
  rto_loop_next	 - an atomic that gets incremented for each CPU that
		    schedules in a lower priority task.
  rto_loop	 - a variable protected by rto_lock that is used to
		    compare against rto_loop_next
  rto_cpu	 - The cpu to send the next IPI to, also protected by
		    the rto_lock.

When a CPU schedules in a lower priority task and wants to make sure
overloaded CPUs know about it. It increments the rto_loop_next. Then it
atomically sets rto_loop_start with a cmpxchg. If the old value is not "0",
then it is done, as another CPU is kicking off the IPI loop. If the old
value is "0", then it will take the rto_lock to synchronize with a possible
IPI being sent around to the overloaded CPUs.

If rto_cpu is greater than or equal to nr_cpu_ids, then there's either no
IPI being sent around, or one is about to finish. Then rto_cpu is set to the
first CPU in rto_mask and an IPI is sent to that CPU. If there's no CPUs set
in rto_mask, then there's nothing to be done.

When the CPU receives the IPI, it will first try to push any RT tasks that is
queued on the CPU but can't run because a higher priority RT task is
currently running on that CPU.

Then it takes the rto_lock and looks for the next CPU in the rto_mask. If it
finds one, it simply sends an IPI to that CPU and the process continues.

If there's no more CPUs in the rto_mask, then rto_loop is compared with
rto_loop_next. If they match, everything is done and the process is over. If
they do not match, then a CPU scheduled in a lower priority task as the IPI
was being passed around, and the process needs to start again. The first CPU
in rto_mask is sent the IPI.

This change removes this duplication of work in the IPI logic, and greatly
lowers the latency caused by the IPIs. This removed the lockup happening on
the 120 CPU machine. It also simplifies the code tremendously. What else
could anyone ask for?

Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for simplifying the rto_loop_start atomic logic and
supplying me with the rto_start_trylock() and rto_start_unlock() helper
functions.

Brendan Jackman 93f50f9024 sched/fair: Fix usage of find_idlest_group() when the local group is idlest
find_idlest_group() returns NULL when the local group is idlest. The
caller then continues the find_idlest_group() search at a lower level
of the current CPU's sched_domain hierarchy. find_idlest_group_cpu() is
not consulted and, crucially, @new_cpu is not updated. This means the
search is pointless and we return @prev_cpu from select_task_rq_fair().

This is fixed by initialising @new_cpu to @cpu instead of @prev_cpu.

currently return NULL from find_idlest_group(), and pointlessly

Add an explicit check for this case, and add a comment to

Brendan Jackman 583ffd99d7 sched/fair: Force balancing on NOHZ balance if local group has capacity
The "goto force_balance" here is intended to mitigate the fact that
avg_load calculations can result in bad placement decisions when
priority is asymmetrical.

The original commit that adds it:

  fab476228b ("sched: Force balancing on newidle balance if local group has capacity")

explains:

    Under certain situations, such as a niced down task (i.e. nice =
    -15) in the presence of nr_cpus NICE0 tasks, the niced task lands
    on a sched group and kicks away other tasks because of its large
    weight. This leads to sub-optimal utilization of the
    machine. Even though the sched group has capacity, it does not
    pull tasks because sds.this_load >> sds.max_load, and f_b_g()
    returns NULL.

A similar but inverted issue also affects ARM big.LITTLE (asymmetrical CPU
capacity) systems - consider 8 always-running, same-priority tasks on a
system with 4 "big" and 4 "little" CPUs. Suppose that 5 of them end up on
the "big" CPUs (which will be represented by one sched_group in the DIE
sched_domain) and 3 on the "little" (the other sched_group in DIE), leaving
one CPU unused. Because the "big" group has a higher group_capacity its
avg_load may not present an imbalance that would cause migrating a
task to the idle "little".

The force_balance case here solves the problem but currently only for
CPU_NEWLY_IDLE balances, which in theory might never happen on the
unused CPU. Including CPU_IDLE in the force_balance case means
there's an upper bound on the time before we can attempt to solve the
underutilization: after DIE's sd->balance_interval has passed the
next nohz balance kick will help us out.

Brendan Jackman ea16f0ea6c sched/fair: Sync task util before slow-path wakeup
We use task_util() in find_idlest_group() via capacity_spare_wake().
This task_util() updated in wake_cap(). However wake_cap() is not the
only reason for ending up in find_idlest_group() - we could have been sent
there by wake_wide(). So explicitly sync the task util with prev_cpu
when we are about to head to find_idlest_group().

We could simply do this at the beginning of
select_task_rq_fair() (i.e. irrespective of whether we're heading to
select_idle_sibling() or find_idlest_group() & co), but I didn't want to
slow down the select_idle_sibling() path more than necessary.

Don't do this during fork balancing, we won't need the task_util and
we'd just clobber the last_update_time, which is supposed to be 0.

Uladzislau Rezki 93824900a2 sched/fair: Search a task from the tail of the queue
As a first step this patch makes cfs_tasks list as MRU one.
It means, that when a next task is picked to run on physical
CPU it is moved to the front of the list.

Therefore, the cfs_tasks list is more or less sorted (except
woken tasks) starting from recently given CPU time tasks toward
tasks with max wait time in a run-queue, i.e. MRU list.

Second, as part of the load balance operation, this approach
starts detach_tasks()/detach_one_task() from the tail of the
queue instead of the head, giving some advantages:

 - tends to pick a task with highest wait time;

 - tasks located in the tail are less likely cache-hot,
   therefore the can_migrate_task() decision is higher.

hackbench illustrates slightly better performance. For example
doing 1000 samples and 40 groups on i5-3320M CPU, it shows below
figures:

 default: 0.657 avg
 patched: 0.646 avg

Suravee Suthikulpanit 051f3ca02e sched/topology: Introduce NUMA identity node sched domain
On AMD Family17h-based (EPYC) system, a logical NUMA node can contain
upto 8 cores (16 threads) with the following topology.

             ----------------------------
         C0  | T0 T1 |    ||    | T0 T1 | C4
             --------|    ||    |--------
         C1  | T0 T1 | L3 || L3 | T0 T1 | C5
             --------|    ||    |--------
         C2  | T0 T1 | #0 || #1 | T0 T1 | C6
             --------|    ||    |--------
         C3  | T0 T1 |    ||    | T0 T1 | C7
             ----------------------------

Here, there are 2 last-level (L3) caches per logical NUMA node.
A socket can contain upto 4 NUMA nodes, and a system can support
upto 2 sockets. With full system configuration, current scheduler
creates 4 sched domains:

  domain0 SMT       (span a core)
  domain1 MC        (span a last-level-cache)
  domain2 NUMA      (span a socket: 4 nodes)
  domain3 NUMA      (span a system: 8 nodes)

Note that there is no domain to represent cpus spaning a logical
NUMA node.  With this hierarchy of sched domains, the scheduler does
not balance properly in the following cases:

Case1:

 When running 8 tasks, a properly balanced system should
 schedule a task per logical NUMA node. This is not the case for
 the current scheduler.

Case2:

 In some cases, threads are scheduled on the same cpu, while other
 cpus are idle. This results in run-to-run inconsistency. For example:

  taskset -c 0-7 sysbench --num-threads=8 --test=cpu \
                          --cpu-max-prime=100000 run

Total execution time ranges from 25.1s to 33.5s depending on threads
placement, where 25.1s is when all 8 threads are balanced properly
on 8 cpus.

Introducing NUMA identity node sched domain, which is based on how
SRAT/SLIT table define a logical NUMA node. This results in the following
hierarchy of sched domains on the same system described above.

  domain0 SMT       (span a core)
  domain1 MC        (span a last-level-cache)
  domain2 NODE      (span a logical NUMA node)
  domain3 NUMA      (span a socket: 4 nodes)
  domain4 NUMA      (span a system: 8 nodes)

This fixes the improper load balancing cases mentioned above.

Peter Zijlstra ed4ad1ca08 sched/topology: Restore SD_PREFER_SIBLING on MC domains
The normal x86_topology on NHM+ machines degenerates because the MC
and CPU domains are of the same size, therefore MC inherits
SD_PREFER_SIBLING from CPU (which then gets taken out). The result is
that we'll spread tasks across the first NUMA level in order to
maximize cache utilization.

However, for the x86_numa_in_package_topology we loose the CPU domain,
and we'll not have SD_PREFER_SIBLING set anywhere, giving a distinct
difference in behaviour.

Commit:

  8e7fbcbc22 ("sched: Remove stale power aware scheduling remnants and dysfunctional knobs")

made a fail by not preserving the SD_PREFER_SIBLING for the !power_saving
case on both CPU and MC.

Then commit:

  6956dc568f ("sched/numa: Add SD_PERFER_SIBLING to CPU domain")

adds it back to the CPU but not MC.

Restore that now, such that we get consistent spreading behaviour wrt
L3 and NUMA.

Luca Abeni 295d6d5e37 sched/deadline: Fix switching to -deadline
Fix a bug introduced in:

  72f9f3fdc9 ("sched/deadline: Remove dl_new from struct sched_dl_entity")

After that commit, when switching to -deadline if the scheduling
deadline of a task is in the past then switched_to_dl() calls
setup_new_entity() to properly initialize the scheduling deadline
and runtime.

The problem is that the task is enqueued _before_ having its parameters
initialized by setup_new_entity(), and this can cause problems.
For example, a task with its out-of-date deadline in the past will
potentially be enqueued as the highest priority one; however, its
adjusted deadline may not be the earliest one.

This patch fixes the problem by initializing the task's parameters before
enqueuing it.

Peter Zijlstra 1d48b080bc sched/debug: Rename task-state printing helpers
Steve requested better names for the new task-state helper functions.

So introduce the concept of task-state index for the printing and
rename __get_task_state() to task_state_index() and
__task_state_to_char() to task_index_to_char().

Peter Zijlstra d153b15344 sched/core: Fix wake_affine() performance regression
Eric reported a sysbench regression against commit:

  3fed382b46 ("sched/numa: Implement NUMA node level wake_affine()")

Similarly, Rik was looking at the NAS-lu.C benchmark, which regressed
against his v3.10 enterprise kernel.

This patch takes out all the shiny wake_affine() stuff and goes back to
utter basics. Between the two CPUs involved with the wakeup (the CPU
doing the wakeup and the CPU we ran on previously) pick the CPU we can
run on _now_.

This restores much of the regressions against the older kernels,
but leaves some ground in the overloaded case. The default-enabled
WA_WEIGHT (which will be introduced in the next patch) is an attempt
to address the overloaded situation.

The u-blox TOBY-L2 is a LTE Cat 4 module with HSPA+ and 2G fallback.
This module allows switching to different USB profiles with the
'AT+UUSBCONF' command, and provides a ECM network interface when the
'AT+UUSBCONF=2' profile is selected.

The u-blox SARA-U2 is a HSPA module with 2G fallback. The default USB
configuration includes a ECM network interface.

Both these modules are controlled via AT commands through one of the
TTYs exposed. Connecting these modules may be done just by activating
the desired PDP context with 'AT+CGACT=1,<cid>' and then running DHCP
on the ECM interface.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-10-09

This series contains updates to ixgbe and arch/Kconfig.

Mark fixes a case where PHY register access is not supported and we were
returning a PHY address, when we should have been returning -EOPNOTSUPP.

Sabrina Dubroca fixes the use of a logical "and" when it should have been
the bitwise "and" operator.

Ding Tianhong reverts the commit that added the Kconfig bool option
ARCH_WANT_RELAX_ORDER, since there is now a new flag
PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RELAXED_ORDERING that has been added to indicate that
Relaxed Ordering Attributes should not be used for Transaction Layer
Packets.  Then follows up with making the needed changes to ixgbe to
use the new PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RELAXED_ORDERING flag.

John Fastabend fixes an issue in the ring accounting when the transmit
ring parameters are changed via ethtool when an XDP program is attached.

Paolo Abeni 996b44fcef udp: fix bcast packet reception
The commit bc044e8db7 ("udp: perform source validation for
mcast early demux") does not take into account that broadcast packets
lands in the same code path and they need different checks for the
source address - notably, zero source address are valid for bcast
and invalid for mcast.

As a result, 2nd and later broadcast packets with 0 source address
landing to the same socket are dropped. This breaks dhcp servers.

Since we don't have stringent performance requirements for ingress
broadcast traffic, fix it by disabling UDP early demux such traffic.

Jason A. Donenfeld 41c87425a1 netlink: do not set cb_running if dump's start() errs
It turns out that multiple places can call netlink_dump(), which means
it's still possible to dereference partially initialized values in
dump() that were the result of a faulty returned start().

This fixes the issue by calling start() _before_ setting cb_running to
true, so that there's no chance at all of hitting the dump() function
through any indirect paths.

It also moves the call to start() to be when the mutex is held. This has
the nice side effect of serializing invocations to start(), which is
likely desirable anyway. It also prevents any possible other races that
might come out of this logic.

In testing this with several different pieces of tricky code to trigger
these issues, this commit fixes all avenues that I'm aware of.

====================
pull-request: mac80211 2017-10-09

The QCA folks found another netlink problem - we were missing validation
of some attributes. It's not super problematic since one can only read a
few bytes beyond the message (and that memory must exist), but here's the
fix for it.

I thought perhaps we can make nla_parse_nested() require a policy, but
given the two-stage validation/parsing in regular netlink that won't work.

Please pull and let me know if there's any problem.
