So {u,s}time in task struct are "raw" tick count, while {u,s}time and c{u,s}time in signal struct are "adjusted" values. And accounted values are used by: - task_times(), to get cputime of a thread: This function returns adjusted values that originates from raw {u,s}time and scaled by sum_exec_runtime that accounted by CFS. - thread_group_cputime(), to get cputime of a thread group: This function returns sum of all {u,s}time of living threads in the group, plus {u,s}time in the signal struct that is sum of adjusted cputimes of all exited threads belonged to the group. The problem is the return value of thread_group_cputime(), because it is mixed sum of "raw" value and "adjusted" value: group's {u,s}time = foreach(thread){{u,s}time} + exited({u,s}time) This misbehavior can break {u,s}time monotonicity. Assume that if there is a thread that have raw values greater than adjusted values (e.g. interrupted by 1000Hz ticks 50 times but only runs 45ms) and if it exits, cputime will decrease (e.g. -5ms). To fix this, we could do: group's {u,s}time = foreach(t){task_times(t)} + exited({u,s}time) But task_times() contains hard divisions, so applying it for every thread should be avoided. This patch fixes the above problem in the following way: - Modify thread's exit (= __exit_signal()) not to use task_times(). It means {u,s}time in signal struct accumulates raw values instead of adjusted values. As the result it makes thread_group_cputime() to return pure sum of "raw" values. - Introduce a new function thread_group_times(*task, *utime, *stime) that converts "raw" values of thread_group_cputime() to "adjusted" values, in same calculation procedure as task_times(). - Modify group's exit (= wait_task_zombie()) to use this introduced thread_group_times(). It make c{u,s}time in signal struct to have adjusted values like before this patch. - Replace some thread_group_cputime() by thread_group_times(). This replacements are only applied where conveys the "adjusted" cputime to users, and where already uses task_times() near by it. (i.e. sys_times(), getrusage(), and /proc/<PID>/stat.) This patch have a positive side effect: - Before this patch, if a group contains many short-life threads (e.g. runs 0.9ms and not interrupted by ticks), the group's cputime could be invisible since thread's cputime was accumulated after adjusted: imagine adjustment function as adj(ticks, runtime), {adj(0, 0.9) + adj(0, 0.9) + ....} = {0 + 0 + ....} = 0. After this patch it will not happen because the adjustment is applied after accumulated. v2: - remove if()s, put new variables into signal_struct.

So it cannot convert msecs greater than INT_MAX = about 24.8 days too. This patch defines a new function nsecs_to_jiffies() that can deal greater values, and that can deal all incoming values as unsigned.

However task_stime() is implemented to call task_utime() from its inside, so such paired calls run task_utime() twice. It means we do heavy divisions (div_u64 + do_div) twice to get utime and stime which can be obtained at same time by one set of divisions. This patch introduces a function task_times(*tsk, *utime, *stime) to retrieve utime and stime at once in better, optimized way.

As the result the granularity of task_s/utime() is still that of clock_t, not that of cputime_t. So using task_s/utime() in __exit_signal() makes values accumulated to the signal struct to be rounded and coarse grained. This patch removes casts to clock_t in task_u/stime(), to keep granularity of cputime_t over the calculation. v2: Use div_u64() to avoid error "undefined reference to `__udivdi3`" on some 32bit systems.

However, Peter noticed that the code in __setscheduler() could result in this intention being frustrated. Fix it.

You can't have such an array if 'struct cpumask' is undefined, as we plan for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y. So, we make this an array of cpumask_var_t instead: this is the same for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n case, but requires multiple allocations for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y case. Hence we add alloc_sched_domains() and free_sched_domains() functions.

This patch fixes the defect and accounts cpu time of a niced guest in 'nice' time as same as a niced process. And also the patch adds 'guest_nice' to cpuacct. The value provides niced guest cpu time which is like 'nice' to 'user'.

It also switches LAST_BUDDY to exclusively do what it does best, namely mitigate the effects of aggressive wakeup preemption, which improves vmark throughput markedly, and restores mysql+oltp scalability. Since buddies are about scalability, enable them beginning at the point where we begin expanding sched_latency, namely sched_nr_latency. Previously, buddies were cleared aggressively, which seriously reduced their effectiveness. Not clearing aggressively however, produces a small drop in mysql+oltp throughput immediately after peak, indicating that LAST_BUDDY is actually doing some harm. This is right at the point where X on the desktop in competition with another load wants low latency service. Ergo, do not enable until we need to scale. To mitigate latency induced by buddies, or by a task just missing wakeup preemption, check latency at tick time. Last hunk prevents buddies from stymieing BALANCE_NEWIDLE via CACHE_HOT_BUDDY.

Unfortunately this blows up ia64 for large NR_CPUS configuration, as ia64 allows only 64k for .percpu section. Fix this by allocating this array dynamically and keep only pointer to it percpu. The per-cpu handling doesn't impose significant performance penalty on potentially contented path in tg_shares_up(). ... ffffffff8104337c: 65 48 8b 14 25 20 cd mov %gs:0xcd20,%rdx ffffffff81043383: 00 00 ffffffff81043385: 48 c7 c0 00 e1 00 00 mov $0xe100,%rax ffffffff8104338c: 48 c7 45 a0 00 00 00 movq $0x0,-0x60(%rbp) ffffffff81043393: 00 ffffffff81043394: 48 c7 45 a8 00 00 00 movq $0x0,-0x58(%rbp) ffffffff8104339b: 00 ffffffff8104339c: 48 01 d0 add %rdx,%rax ffffffff8104339f: 49 8d 94 24 08 01 00 lea 0x108(%r12),%rdx ffffffff810433a6: 00 ffffffff810433a7: b9 ff ff ff ff mov $0xffffffff,%ecx ffffffff810433ac: 48 89 45 b0 mov %rax,-0x50(%rbp) ffffffff810433b0: bb 00 04 00 00 mov $0x400,%ebx ffffffff810433b5: 48 89 55 c0 mov %rdx,-0x40(%rbp) ...

This patch cures occasional huge latencies reported by latencytop when coming out of idle on a mostly idle NO_HZ box.

There is an old comment for not doing IOWAIT on throttle, however it has been mismatching the code for a long time. If we stop accounting IOWAIT for 2.6.32, it could be an undesirable behavior change. So restore the io_schedule.

|/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | normal_prio should be updated if policy changes from RT to SCHED_MORMAL or if static_prio/nice is changed. Some paths through sched_fork() ignore this requirement and may result in normal_prio having an invalid value. Fixing this issue allows the call to effective_prio() in wake_up_new_task() to be removed.

* | cgroups: let ss->can_attach and ss->attach do whole threadgroups at a timeBen Blum2009-09-241-3/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc. (This is a pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.) Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader. No subsystem currently needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right information.
