The recent introduction of the schedtune cgroup controller has provided
the scheduler with added flexibility in terms of some of it's placement
features. In particular each cgroup under the schedtune controller can
now specify:
1) Whether it needs co-location along with other cgroups
2) Whether it is eligible for scheduler boost (sched_boost_enabled)
3) Whether the kernel can override the boost eligibility when necessary
(sched_boost_no_override)
The scheduler now creates a reserved co-location group at boot. This
group is used to co-locate all tasks that form part of any one of the
cgroups that have co-location enabled. This reserved group can neither
be destroyed nor reused for other purposes. Furthermore, cgroups are
only allowed to indicate their co-location preference once at boot.
Further updates are disallowed.
Since we are now creating co-location groups for an extended period of
time, there are a few other factors to consider when determining the
preferred cluster for the group. We first exclude any tasks in the
group that have not been observed to be running for a significant
amount of time. Secondly we introduce the notion of group up and down
migrate tunables to allow different migration policies than individual
tasks. Lastly we break co-location if a single task in a group exceeds
up-migrate but the total load of the group does not exceed group
up-migrate.
In terms of sched_boost, the scheduler now supports multiple types of
boost. These are:
1) FULL_THROTTLE : Force up-migrate tasks belonging any cgroup that
has the sched_boost_enabled flag turned on. Little
CPUs will only be used when big CPUs can no longer
accommodate tasks. Also up-migrate all RT tasks.
2) CONSERVATIVE : Override the sched_boost_enabled flag for all cgroups
except those that have the sched_boost_no_override
flag set. Force up-migrate all tasks belonging to only
those cgroups that still remain eligible for boost.
RT tasks do not get force up migrated.
3) RESTRAINED : Start frequency aggregation for co-located tasks. This
type of boost does not force up-migrate any task.
Finally the boost API removes ref-counting. This means that there can
only be a single entity using boost at any given time. If multiple
entities are managing boost, they are required to be well behaved so
that they don't interfere with one another. Even for a single client,
it is not possible to switch directly from one boost type to another.
Boost must be first turned off before switching over to a new type.

The previous patches in this series introduce the mechanics of CPU
load tracking without fixups for intra cluster migration and top task
load tracking. Add a tunable that dictates what of the above needs to
be considered when reporting load to the governor. The default policy
is to take the maximum of the CPU load and top task load.

To support task performance boosting, the usage of a single knob has the
advantage to be a simple solution, both from the implementation and the
usability standpoint. However, on a real system it can be difficult to
identify a single value for the knob which fits the needs of multiple
different tasks. For example, some kernel threads and/or user-space
background services should be better managed the "standard" way while we
still want to be able to boost the performance of specific workloads.
In order to improve the flexibility of the task boosting mechanism this
patch is the first of a small series which extends the previous
implementation to introduce a "per task group" support.
This first patch introduces just the basic CGroups support, a new
"schedtune" CGroups controller is added which allows to configure
different boost value for different groups of tasks.
To keep the implementation simple but still effective for a boosting
strategy, the new controller:
1. allows only a two layer hierarchy
2. supports only a limited number of boost groups
A two layer hierarchy allows to place each task either:
a) in the root control group
thus being subject to a system-wide boosting value
b) in a child of the root group
thus being subject to the specific boost value defined by that
"boost group"
The limited number of "boost groups" supported is mainly motivated by
the observation that in a real system it could be useful to have only
few classes of tasks which deserve different treatment.
For example, background vs foreground or interactive vs low-priority.
As an additional benefit, a limited number of boost groups allows also
to have a simpler implementation especially for the code required to
compute the boost value for CPUs which have runnable tasks belonging to
different boost groups.

Signed-off-by: Vikram Mulukutla <markivx@codeaurora.org>
The current (CFS) scheduler implementation does not allow "to boost"
tasks performance by running them at a higher OPP compared to the
minimum required to meet their workload demands.
To support tasks performance boosting the scheduler should provide a
"knob" which allows to tune how much the system is going to be optimised
for energy efficiency vs performance.
This patch is the first of a series which provides a simple interface to
define a tuning knob. One system-wide "boost" tunable is exposed via:
/proc/sys/kernel/sched_cfs_boost
which can be configured in the range [0..100], to define a percentage
where:
- 0% boost requires to operate in "standard" mode by scheduling
tasks at the minimum capacities required by the workload demand
- 100% boost requires to push at maximum the task performances,
"regardless" of the incurred energy consumption
A boost value in between these two boundaries is used to bias the
power/performance trade-off, the higher the boost value the more the
scheduler is biased toward performance boosting instead of energy
efficiency.

The current policy has a preference to select an idle CPU in the waker
cluster compared to the waker CPU running only 1 task. By selecting
an idle CPU, it eliminates the chance of waker migrating to a
different CPU after the wakee preempts it. This policy is also not
susceptible to the incorrect "sync" usage i.e the waker does not
goto sleep after waking up the wakee.
However LPM exit latency associated with an idle CPU outweigh the
above benefits on some targets. So add a knob to prefer the waker
CPU having only 1 runnable task over idle CPUs in the waker cluster.

Do the aggregation for frequency only when the total group busy time
is above sched_freq_aggregate_threshold. This filtering is especially
needed for the cases where groups are created by including all threads
of an application process. This knob can be tuned to apply aggregation
only for the heavy workload applications.
When this knob is enabled and load is aggregated, the load is not
clipped to 100% @ current frequency to ramp up the frequency faster.

CONFIG_SCHED_FREQ_INPUT was created to keep parts of the scheduler
dealing with frequency separate from other parts of the scheduler
that deal with task placement. However, overtime the two features
have become intricately linked whereby SCHED_FREQ_INPUT cannot be
turned on without having SCHED_HMP turned on as well. Given this
complex inter-dependency and the fact that all old, existing and
future targets use both config options, remove this unnecessary
feature separation. It will aid in making kernel upgrades a lot
simpler and faster.

commit 759c01142a5d0f364a462346168a56de28a80f52 upstream.
On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an
OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A
typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of
memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to
prevent this from happening.
This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above
which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting
them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may
be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system
against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing
pipes to work correctly though with less data at once.
The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and
pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The
default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024)
to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB
before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited
to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB =
1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by
default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use
of pipes (eg: for splicing).

Related threads in a group could execute on different CPUs and hence
present a split-demand picture to cpufreq governor. IOW the governor
fails to see the net cpu demand of all related threads in a given
window if the threads's execution were to be split across CPUs. That
could result in sub-optimal frequency chosen in comparison to the
ideal frequency at which the aggregate work (taken up by related
threads) needs to be run.
This patch aggregates cpu execution stats in a window for all related
threads in a group. This helps present cpu busy time to governor as if
all related threads were part of the same thread and thus help select
the right frequency required by related threads. This aggregation
is done per-cluster.

Biasing sync wakee task towards waker CPU's cluster makes sense when the
waker's demand is high enough so the wakee also can take advantage
of high CPU frequency voted because of waker's load. Placing sync wakee
on the low demand waker's CPU can lead placement imbalance which can
lead unnecessary migration.
Introduce a new tunable "sched_big_waker_task_load" that defines the big
waker so scheduler avoid wakee on waker's cluster bias when the waker's
load is below the tunable.

If sync wakee task's demand is small it's worth to place the wakee task
on waker's cluster for better performance in the sense that waker and
wakee are corelated so the wakee should take advantage of waker cluster's
frequency which is voted by the waker along with cache locality benefit.
While biasing towards the waker's cluster we want to avoid the waker CPU
as much as possible as placing the wakee on the waker's CPU can make the
waker got preempted and migrated by load balancer.
Introduce a new tunable 'sched_small_wakee_task_load' that differentiates
eligible small wakee task and place the small wakee tasks on the waker's
cluster.

include/linux/sched/sysctl.h.]
Current window based load tracking only saves history for five
windows. A historically heavy task's heavy load will be completely
forgotten after five windows of light load. Even before the five
window expires, a heavy task wakes up on same CPU it used to run won't
trigger any frequency change until end of the window. It would starve
for the entire window. It also adds one "small" load window to
history because it's accumulating load at a low frequency, further
reducing the tracked load for this heavy task.
Ideally, scheduler should be able to identify such tasks and notify
governor to increase frequency immediately after it wakes up.
Add a histogram for each task to track a much longer load history. A
prediction will be made based on runtime of previous or current
window, histogram data and load tracked in recent windows. Prediction
of all tasks that is currently running or runnable on a CPU is
aggregated and reported to CPUFreq governor in sched_get_cpus_busy().
sched_get_cpus_busy() now returns predicted busy time in addition
to previous window busy time and new task busy time, scaled to
the CPU maximum possible frequency.
Tunables:
- /proc/sys/kernel/sched_gov_alert_freq (KHz)
This tunable can be used to further filter the notifications.
Frequency alert notification is sent only when the predicted
load exceeds previous window load by sched_gov_alert_freq converted to
load.

[joonwoop@codeaurora.org: fixed merge conflicts around __migrate_task()
and removed changes for CONFIG_SCHED_QHMP.]
The frequency based inter cluster load balance restrictions are not
reliable as frequency does not provide a good estimate of the CPU's
current load. Replace them with the spill_load and spill_nr_run
based checks.
The higher capacity cluster is restricted from pulling the tasks from
the lower capacity cluster unless all of the lower capacity CPUs are
above spill. This behavior can be controlled by a sysctl tunable and
it is disabled by default (i.e. no load balance restrictions).

display buffer could be tagged as related.
Scheduler will attempt to provide special treatment for group of

1) Colocation of related threads in same "preferred" cluster
2) Aggregation of demand towards determination of cluster frequency
This patch extends scheduler to provide best-effort colocation support

Tasks that are on the runqueue continuously for a certain amount of time
have the potential to be big tasks at the end of the window in which they
are runnable. In such scenarios ramping the CPU frequency early can
boost performance rather than waiting till the end of a window for the
governor to query load. Notify the governor early at every tick when a
task has been observed to execute beyond some percentage of the tick
period.
The threshold beyond which a task is eligible for early detection can be
changed via the tunable sched_early_detection_duration. The feature itself
is enabled only when scheduler boost is in effect.

When upmigrate_min_nice is changed dec_nr_big_small_task() can trigger
BUG_ON(rq->nr_big_tasks < 0). This happens when there is a task which was
considered as non-big task due to its nice > upmigrate_min_nice and later
upmigrate_min_nice is changed to higher value so the task becomes big task.
In this case runqueue still has nr_big_tasks = 0 incorrectly with current
implementation. Consequently next scheduler tick sees a big task to
schedule and try to decrease nr_big_tasks which is already 0.
Introduce sched_upmigrate_min_nice which is updated atomically and re-count
the number of big and small tasks to fix BUG_ON() triggering.

A new tunable exists that allow task migration to be throttled when the
scheduler tries to do task migrations due to Energy Awareness (EA). This
tunable is only taken into account when migrations occur in the tick
path. Extend the usage of the tunable to take into account the load
balancer (lb) path also.
In addition ensure that the start of task execution on a CPU is updated
correctly. If a task is preempted but still runnable on the same CPU the
start of execution should not be updated. Only update the start of
execution when a task wakes up after sleep or moves to a new CPU.

Signed-off-by: Joonwoo Park <joonwoop@codeaurora.org>
Power values for cpus can drop quite considerably when it goes idle.
As a result, the best choice for running a single task in a cluster
can vary quite rapidly. As the task keeps hopping cpus, other cpus go
idle and start being seen as more favorable target for running a task,
leading to task migrating almost every scheduler tick!
Prevent this by keeping track of when a task started running on a cpu
and allowing task migration in tick path (migration_needed()) on
account of energy efficiency reasons only if the task has run
sufficiently long (as determined by sysctl_sched_min_runtime
variable).
Note that currently sysctl_sched_min_runtime setting is considered
only in scheduler_tick()->migration_needed() path and not in
idle_balance() path. In other words, a task could be migrated to
another cpu which did a idle_balance(). This limitation should not
affect high-frequency migrations seen typically (when a single
high-demand task runs on high-performance cpu).
