NUMA topologies where the shortest path between some two nodes requires
three or more hops (i.e. diameter > 2) end up being misrepresented in the
scheduler topology structures.
This is currently detected when booting a kernel with CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y
+ sched_debug on the cmdline, although this will only yield a warning about
sched_group spans not matching sched_domain spans:
ERROR: groups don't span domain->span
Add an explicit warning for that case, triggered regardless of
CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG, and decorate it with an appropriate comment.
The topology described in the comment can be booted up on QEMU by appending
the following to your usual QEMU incantation:
-smp cores=4 \
-numa node,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,cpus=1,nodeid=1, \
-numa node,cpus=2,nodeid=2, -numa node,cpus=3,nodeid=3, \
-numa dist,src=0,dst=1,val=20, -numa dist,src=0,dst=2,val=30, \

-numa dist,src=1,dst=3,val=30, -numa dist,src=2,dst=3,val=20
A somewhat more realistic topology (6-node mesh) with the same affliction
can be conjured with:
-smp cores=6 \
-numa node,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,cpus=1,nodeid=1, \
-numa node,cpus=2,nodeid=2, -numa node,cpus=3,nodeid=3, \

One of our machines keeled over trying to rebuild the scheduler domains.

It happens with cgroup2 and exclusive cpusets only. This reproducer
triggers it on an 8-cpu vm and works most effectively with no
preexisting child cgroups:
cd $UNIFIED_ROOT
mkdir cg1
echo 4-7 > cg1/cpuset.cpus
echo root > cg1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# with smt/control reading 'on',
echo off > /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
RIP maps to
sd->shared = *per_cpu_ptr(sdd->sds, sd_id);
from sd_init(). sd_id is calculated earlier in the same function:
cpumask_and(sched_domain_span(sd), cpu_map, tl->mask(cpu));
sd_id = cpumask_first(sched_domain_span(sd));
tl->mask(cpu), which reads cpu_sibling_map on x86, returns an empty mask
and so cpumask_first() returns >= nr_cpu_ids, which leads to the bogus
value from per_cpu_ptr() above.
The problem is a race between cpuset_hotplug_workfn() and a later
offline of CPU N. cpuset_hotplug_workfn() updates the effective masks
when N is still online, the offline clears N from cpu_sibling_map, and
then the worker uses the stale effective masks that still have N to
generate the scheduling domains, leading the worker to read
N's empty cpu_sibling_map in sd_init().
rebuild_sched_domains_locked() prevented the race during the cgroup2
cpuset series up until the Fixes commit changed its check. Make the
check more robust so that it can detect an offline CPU in any exclusive
cpuset's effective mask, not just the top one.

Qian reported that some fuzzer issuing sched_setaffinity() ends up stuck on
a wait_for_completion(). The problematic pattern seems to be:
affine_move_task()
// task_running() case
stop_one_cpu();
wait_for_completion(&pending->done);
Combined with, on the stopper side:
migration_cpu_stop()
// Task moved between unlocks and scheduling the stopper
task_rq(p) != rq &&
// task_running() case
dest_cpu >= 0
=> no complete_all()
This can happen with both PREEMPT and !PREEMPT, although !PREEMPT should
be more likely to see this given the targeted task has a much bigger window
to block and be woken up elsewhere before the stopper runs.
Make migration_cpu_stop() always look at pending affinity requests; signal
their completion if the stopper hits a rq mismatch but the task is
still within its allowed mask. When Migrate-Disable isn't involved, this
matches the previous set_cpus_allowed_ptr() vs migration_cpu_stop()
behaviour.

In order to minimize the interference of migrate_disable() on lower
priority tasks, which can be deprived of runtime due to being stuck
below a higher priority task. Teach the RT/DL balancers to push away
these higher priority tasks when a lower priority task gets selected
to run on a freshly demoted CPU (pull).
This adds migration interference to the higher priority task, but
restores bandwidth to system that would otherwise be irrevocably lost.
Without this it would be possible to have all tasks on the system
stuck on a single CPU, each task preempted in a migrate_disable()
section with a single high priority task running.
This way we can still approximate running the M highest priority tasks
on the system.
Migrating the top task away is (ofcourse) still subject to
migrate_disable() too, which means the lower task is subject to an
interference equivalent to the worst case migrate_disable() section.

Concurrent migrate_disable() and set_cpus_allowed_ptr() has
interesting features. We rely on set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to not return
until the task runs inside the provided mask. This expectation is
exported to userspace.
This means that any set_cpus_allowed_ptr() caller must wait until
migrate_enable() allows migrations.
At the same time, we don't want migrate_enable() to schedule, due to
patterns like:
preempt_disable();
migrate_disable();
...
migrate_enable();
preempt_enable();
And:
raw_spin_lock(&B);
spin_unlock(&A);
this means that when migrate_enable() must restore the affinity
mask, it cannot wait for completion thereof. Luck will have it that
that is exactly the case where there is a pending
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), so let that provide storage for the async stop
machine.

bandwidth unthrottle, otherwise we can gain tasks from unthrottle
after we expect all tasks to be gone already.
Also; it looks like the RT balancers don't respect cpu_active() and
instead rely on rq->online in part, complete this. This too requires
we do set_rq_offline() earlier to match the cpu_active() semantics.

With the new mechanism which kicks tasks off the outgoing CPU at the end of
schedule() the situation on an outgoing CPU right before the stopper thread
brings it down completely is:
- All user tasks and all unbound kernel threads have either been migrated
away or are not running and the next wakeup will move them to a online CPU.
- All per CPU kernel threads, except cpu hotplug thread and the stopper
thread have either been unbound or parked by the responsible CPU hotplug
callback.
That means that at the last step before the stopper thread is invoked the
cpu hotplug thread is the last legitimate running task on the outgoing
CPU.
Add a final wait step right before the stopper thread is kicked which
ensures that any still running tasks on the way to park or on the way to
kick themself of the CPU are either sleeping or gone.
This allows to remove the migrate_tasks() crutch in sched_cpu_dying(). If
sched_cpu_dying() detects that there is still another running task aside of
the stopper thread then it will explode with the appropriate fireworks.

This is ran (as one of the very first steps) from the cpu-hotplug

This constraint enables the migrate_disable() implementation to wait

The intent of balance_callback() has always been to delay executing
balancing operations until the end of the current rq->lock section.
This is because balance operations must often drop rq->lock, and that
isn't safe in general.
However, as noted by Scott, there were a few holes in that scheme;
balance_callback() was called after rq->lock was dropped, which means
another CPU can interleave and touch the callback list.
Rework code to call the balance callbacks before dropping rq->lock
where possible, and otherwise splice the balance list onto a local
stack.
This guarantees that the balance list must be empty when we take
rq->lock. IOW, we'll only ever run our own balance callbacks.

In the case of a thread wakeup, wake_affine determines whether a core
will be chosen for the thread on the socket where the thread ran
previously or on the socket of the waker. This is done primarily by
comparing the load of the core where th thread ran previously (prev)
and the load of the waker (this).
commit 11f10e5420 ("sched/fair: Use load instead of runnable load
in wakeup path") changed the load computation from the runnable load
to the load average, where the latter includes the load of threads
that have already blocked on the core.
When a short-running daemon processes happens to run on prev, this
change raised the situation that prev could appear to have a greater
load than this, even when prev is actually idle. When prev and this
are on the same socket, the idle prev is detected later, in
select_idle_sibling. But if that does not hold, prev is completely
ignored, causing the waking thread to move to the socket of the waker.
In the case of N mostly active threads on N cores, this triggers other
migrations and hurts performance.
In contrast, before commit 11f10e5420, the load on an idle core
was 0, and in the case of a non-idle waker core, the effect of
wake_affine was to select prev as the target for searching for a core
for the waking thread.
To avoid unnecessary migrations, extend wake_affine_idle to check
whether the core where the thread previously ran is currently idle,
and if so simply return that core as the target.
[1] commit 11f10e5420 ("sched/fair: Use load instead of runnable
load in wakeup path")
This particularly has an impact when using the ondemand power manager,
where kworkers run every 0.004 seconds on all cores, increasing the
likelihood that an idle core will be considered to have a load.
The following numbers were obtained with the benchmarking tool

When change sched_rt_{runtime, period}_us, we validate that the new
settings should at least accommodate the currently allocated -dl
bandwidth:
sched_rt_handler()
--> sched_dl_bandwidth_validate()
{
new_bw = global_rt_runtime()/global_rt_period();
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
dl_b = dl_bw_of(cpu);
if (new_bw < dl_b->total_bw) <-------
ret = -EBUSY;
}
}
But under CONFIG_SMP, dl_bw is per root domain , but not per CPU,
dl_b->total_bw is the allocated bandwidth of the whole root domain.
Instead, we should compare dl_b->total_bw against "cpus*new_bw",
where 'cpus' is the number of CPUs of the root domain.
Also, below annotation(in kernel/sched/sched.h) implied implementation
only appeared in SCHED_DEADLINE v2[1], then deadline scheduler kept
evolving till got merged(v9), but the annotation remains unchanged,
meaningless and misleading, update it.
* With respect to SMP, the bandwidth is given on a per-CPU basis,
* meaning that:
* - dl_bw (< 100%) is the bandwidth of the system (group) on each CPU;
* - dl_total_bw array contains, in the i-eth element, the currently
* allocated bandwidth on the i-eth CPU.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Fix synthetic event "strcat" overrun
New synthetic event code used strcat() and miscalculated the ending,
causing the concatenation to write beyond the allocated memory.
Instead of using strncat(), the code is switched over to seq_buf which
has all the mechanisms in place to protect against writing more than
what is allocated, and cleans up the code a bit"

The cause came down to a use of strcat() that was adding an string that was
shorten, but the strcat() did not take that into account.
strcat() is extremely dangerous as it does not care how big the buffer is.
Replace it with seq_buf operations that prevent the buffer from being
overwritten if what is being written is bigger than the buffer.

tid_addr is not a "pointer to (pointer to int in userspace)"; it is in
fact a "pointer to (pointer to int in userspace) in userspace". So
sparse rightfully complains about passing a kernel pointer to

Pull random32 updates from Willy Tarreau:
"Make prandom_u32() less predictable.
This is the cleanup of the latest series of prandom_u32
experimentations consisting in using SipHash instead of Tausworthe to
produce the randoms used by the network stack.
The changes to the files were kept minimal, and the controversial
commit that used to take noise from the fast_pool (f227e3ec3b) was
reverted. Instead, a dedicated "net_rand_noise" per_cpu variable is
fed from various sources of activities (networking, scheduling) to
perturb the SipHash state using fast, non-trivially predictable data,
instead of keeping it fully deterministic. The goal is essentially to
make any occasional memory leakage or brute-force attempt useless.
The resulting code was verified to be very slightly faster on x86_64
than what is was with the controversial commit above, though this
remains barely above measurement noise. It was also tested on i386 and
arm, and build- tested only on arm64"
