fe7a11c78d sched/core: Fix unbalance set_rq_online/offline() in sched_cpu_deactivate()
If cpuset_cpu_inactive() fails, set_rq_online() need be called to rollback.

e22f910a26 sched/smt: Fix unbalance sched_smt_present dec/inc
I got the following warn report while doing stress test:

jump label: negative count!
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 38 at kernel/jump_label.c:263 static_key_slow_try_dec+0x9d/0xb0

Because when cpuset_cpu_inactive() fails in sched_cpu_deactivate(),
the cpu offline failed, but sched_smt_present is decremented before
calling sched_cpu_deactivate(), it leads to unbalanced dec/inc, so
fix it by incrementing sched_smt_present in the error path.

78eb4ea25c sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers
const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function

* The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified.
  This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into
  another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the
  proc_handler migration.

d329605287 sched/fair: set_load_weight() must also call reweight_task() for SCHED_IDLE tasks
When a task's weight is being changed, set_load_weight() is called with
@update_load set. As weight changes aren't trivial for the fair class,
set_load_weight() calls fair.c::reweight_task() for fair class tasks.

However, set_load_weight() first tests task_has_idle_policy() on entry and
skips calling reweight_task() for SCHED_IDLE tasks. This is buggy as
SCHED_IDLE tasks are just fair tasks with a very low weight and they would
incorrectly skip load, vlag and position updates.

Fix it by updating reweight_task() to take struct load_weight as idle weight
can't be expressed with prio and making set_load_weight() call
reweight_task() for SCHED_IDLE tasks too when @update_load is set.

ddae0ca2a8 sched: Move psi_account_irqtime() out of update_rq_clock_task() hotpath
It was reported that in moving to 6.1, a larger then 10%
regression was seen in the performance of
clock_gettime(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID,...).

Using a simple reproducer, I found:
5.10:
100000000 calls in 24345994193 ns => 243.460 ns per call
100000000 calls in 24288172050 ns => 242.882 ns per call
100000000 calls in 24289135225 ns => 242.891 ns per call

6.1:
100000000 calls in 28248646742 ns => 282.486 ns per call
100000000 calls in 28227055067 ns => 282.271 ns per call
100000000 calls in 28177471287 ns => 281.775 ns per call

The cause of this was finally narrowed down to the addition of
psi_account_irqtime() in update_rq_clock_task(), in commit
52b1364ba0 ("sched/psi: Add PSI_IRQ to track IRQ/SOFTIRQ
pressure").

In my initial attempt to resolve this, I leaned towards moving
all accounting work out of the clock_gettime() call path, but it
wasn't very pretty, so it will have to wait for a later deeper
rework. Instead, Peter shared this approach:

Rework psi_account_irqtime() to use its own psi_irq_time base
for accounting, and move it out of the hotpath, calling it
instead from sched_tick() and __schedule().

In testing this, we found the importance of ensuring
psi_account_irqtime() is run under the rq_lock, which Johannes
Weiner helpfully explained, so also add some lockdep annotations
to make that requirement clear.

With this change the performance is back in-line with 5.10:
6.1+fix:
100000000 calls in 24297324597 ns => 242.973 ns per call
100000000 calls in 24318869234 ns => 243.189 ns per call
100000000 calls in 24291564588 ns => 242.916 ns per call

399ced9594 rcu/tasks: Fix stale task snaphot for Tasks Trace
When RCU-TASKS-TRACE pre-gp takes a snapshot of the current task running
on all online CPUs, no explicit ordering synchronizes properly with a
context switch.  This lack of ordering can permit the new task to miss
pre-grace-period update-side accesses.  The following diagram, courtesy
of Paul, shows the possible bad scenario:

        CPU 0                                           CPU 1
        -----                                           -----

        // Pre-GP update side access
        WRITE_ONCE(*X, 1);
        smp_mb();
        r0 = rq->curr;
                                                        RCU_INIT_POINTER(rq->curr, TASK_B)
                                                        spin_unlock(rq)
                                                        rcu_read_lock_trace()
                                                        r1 = X;
        /* ignore TASK_B */

Either r0==TASK_B or r1==1 is needed but neither is guaranteed.

One possible solution to solve this is to wait for an RCU grace period
at the beginning of the RCU-tasks-trace grace period before taking the
current tasks snaphot. However this would introduce large additional
latencies to RCU-tasks-trace grace periods.

Another solution is to lock the target runqueue while taking the current
task snapshot. This ensures that the update side sees the latest context
switch and subsequent context switches will see the pre-grace-period
update side accesses.

This commit therefore adds runqueue locking to cpu_curr_snapshot().

04746ed80b sched/syscalls: Split out kernel/sched/syscalls.c from kernel/sched/core.c
core.c has become rather large, move most scheduler syscall
related functionality into a separate file, syscalls.c.

This is about ~15% of core.c's raw linecount.

Move the alloc_user_cpus_ptr(), __rt_effective_prio(),
rt_effective_prio(), uclamp_none(), uclamp_se_set()
and uclamp_bucket_id() inlines to kernel/sched/sched.h.

Internally export the __sched_setscheduler(), __sched_setaffinity(),
__setscheduler_prio(), set_load_weight(), enqueue_task(), dequeue_task(),
check_class_changed(), splice_balance_callbacks() and balance_callbacks()
methods to better facilitate this.

Move the new file's build to sched_policy.c, because it fits there
semantically, but also because it's the smallest of the 4 build units
under an allmodconfig build:

  -rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 7.3M May 27 12:35 kernel/sched/core.i
  -rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 6.4M May 27 12:36 kernel/sched/build_utility.i
  -rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 6.3M May 27 12:36 kernel/sched/fair.i
  -rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 5.8M May 27 12:36 kernel/sched/build_policy.i

This better balances build time for scheduler subsystem rebuilds.

I build-tested this new file as a standalone syscalls.o file for a bit,
to make sure all the encapsulations & abstractions are robust.

Also update/add my copyright notices to these files.

Build time measurements:

Build time improvement of -11.1% (duration_time) is expected: the
parallel build time of the scheduler subsystem is determined by the
largest, slowest to build object file, which is kernel/sched/core.o.
By moving ~15% of its complexity into another build unit, we reduced
build time by -11%.

Measured cycles spent on building is within its ~0.2% stddev noise envelope.

The -0.7% reduction in instructions spent on building the scheduler is
statistically reliable and somewhat surprising - I can only speculate:
maybe compilers aren't that efficient at building & optimizing 10+ KLOC files
(core.c), and it's an overall win to balance the linecount a bit.

Anyway, this might be a data point that suggests that reducing the linecount
of our largest files will improve not just code readability and maintainability,
but might also improve build times a bit.

Code generation got a bit worse, by 0.5kb text on an x86 defconfig build:

This is primarily due to the extra functions exported, and the size
gets exaggerated somewhat by __pfx CFI function padding:

	ffffffff810cc71f:	90                   	nop

AFAICS the cost is primarily not to core.o and fair.o though (which contain
most performance sensitive scheduler functions), only to syscalls.o
that get called with much lower frequency - so I think this is an acceptable
trade-off for better code separation.

91b6163be4 sysctl changes for v6.10-rc1
Summary
 * Removed sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/*
 
   Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size and
   runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for net/, io_uring/,
   mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline through their respective
   subsystems making the next release the most likely place where the final
   series that removes the check for proc_name == NULL will land. This PR adds
   to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/.
 
 * Adjusted ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification
 
   Adjustments:
     - Removing unused ctl_table function arguments
     - Moving non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header
     - Making ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure
 
   Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by keeping the
   pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no ctl_tables where
   made const in this PR, the ground work for making that possible has started
   with these changes sent by Thomas Weißschuh.
 
 Testing
 * These changes went into linux-next after v6.9-rc4; giving it a good month of
   testing.

49217ea147 sched/core: Fix incorrect initialization of the 'burst' parameter in cpu_max_write()
In the cgroup v2 CPU subsystem, assuming we have a
cgroup named 'test', and we set cpu.max and cpu.max.burst:

    # echo 1000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    # echo 1000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst

then we check cpu.max and cpu.max.burst:

    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    1000000 100000
    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
    1000000

Next we set cpu.max again and check cpu.max and
cpu.max.burst:

    # echo 2000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    2000000 100000

    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
    1000

... we find that the cpu.max.burst value changed unexpectedly.

In cpu_max_write(), the unit of the burst value returned
by tg_get_cfs_burst() is microseconds, while in cpu_max_write(),
the burst unit used for calculation should be nanoseconds,
which leads to the bug.

To fix it, get the burst value directly from tg->cfs_bandwidth.burst.

The optional shift of the clock used by thermal/hw load avg has been

hw signal. Now that cpufreq provides a signal for firmware and
SW pressure, we can remove this exception and always keep this PELT signal
aligned with other signals.

d4dbc99171 sched/cpufreq: Rename arch_update_thermal_pressure() => arch_update_hw_pressure()
Now that cpufreq provides a pressure value to the scheduler, rename
arch_update_thermal_pressure into HW pressure to reflect that it returns
a pressure applied by HW (i.e. with a high frequency change) and not
always related to thermal mitigation but also generated by max current
limitation as an example. Such high frequency signal needs filtering to be
smoothed and provide an value that reflects the average available capacity
into the scheduler time scale.

86dd6c04ef sched/balancing: Rename scheduler_tick() => sched_tick()
- Standardize on prefixing scheduler-internal functions defined
  in <linux/sched.h> with sched_*() prefix. scheduler_tick() was
  the only function using the scheduler_ prefix. Harmonize it.

- The other reason to rename it is the NOHZ scheduler tick
  handling functions are already named sched_tick_*().
  Make the 'git grep sched_tick' more meaningful.

membarrier: riscv: Provide core serializing command
RISC-V uses xRET instructions on return from interrupt and to go back
to user-space; the xRET instruction is not core serializing.

Use FENCE.I for providing core serialization as follows:

 - by calling sync_core_before_usermode() on return from interrupt (cf.
   ipi_sync_core()),

 - via switch_mm() and sync_core_before_usermode() (respectively, for
   uthread->uthread and kthread->uthread transitions) before returning
   to user-space.

On RISC-V, the serialization in switch_mm() is activated by resetting
the icache_stale_mask of the mm at prepare_sync_core_cmd().

membarrier: riscv: Add full memory barrier in switch_mm()
The membarrier system call requires a full memory barrier after storing
to rq->curr, before going back to user-space.  The barrier is only
needed when switching between processes: the barrier is implied by
mmdrop() when switching from kernel to userspace, and it's not needed
when switching from userspace to kernel.

Rely on the feature/mechanism ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_CALLBACKS and on the
primitive membarrier_arch_switch_mm(), already adopted by the PowerPC
architecture, to insert the required barrier.

9c0b4bb7f6 sched/cpufreq: Rework schedutil governor performance estimation
The current method to take into account uclamp hints when estimating the
target frequency can end in a situation where the selected target
frequency is finally higher than uclamp hints, whereas there are no real
needs. Such cases mainly happen because we are currently mixing the
traditional scheduler utilization signal with the uclamp performance
hints. By adding these 2 metrics, we loose an important information when
it comes to select the target frequency, and we have to make some
assumptions which can't fit all cases.

Rework the interface between the scheduler and schedutil governor in order
to propagate all information down to the cpufreq governor.

effective_cpu_util() interface changes and now returns the actual
utilization of the CPU with 2 optional inputs:

- The minimum performance for this CPU; typically the capacity to handle
  the deadline task and the interrupt pressure. But also uclamp_min
  request when available.

- The maximum targeting performance for this CPU which reflects the
  maximum level that we would like to not exceed. By default it will be
  the CPU capacity but can be reduced because of some performance hints
  set with uclamp. The value can be lower than actual utilization and/or
  min performance level.

A new sugov_effective_cpu_perf() interface is also available to compute
the final performance level that is targeted for the CPU, after applying
some cpufreq headroom and taking into account all inputs.

With these 2 functions, schedutil is now able to decide when it must go
above uclamp hints. It now also has a generic way to get the min
performance level.

The dependency between energy model and cpufreq governor and its headroom
policy doesn't exist anymore.

eenv_pd_max_util() asks schedutil for the targeted performance after
applying the impact of the waking task.

63ba8422f8 sched/deadline: Introduce deadline servers
Low priority tasks (e.g., SCHED_OTHER) can suffer starvation if tasks
with higher priority (e.g., SCHED_FIFO) monopolize CPU(s).

RT Throttling has been introduced a while ago as a (mostly debug)
countermeasure one can utilize to reserve some CPU time for low priority
tasks (usually background type of work, e.g. workqueues, timers, etc.).
It however has its own problems (see documentation) and the undesired
effect of unconditionally throttling FIFO tasks even when no lower
priority activity needs to run (there are mechanisms to fix this issue
as well, but, again, with their own problems).

Introduce deadline servers to service low priority tasks needs under
starvation conditions. Deadline servers are built extending SCHED_DEADLINE
implementation to allow 2-level scheduling (a sched_deadline entity
becomes a container for lower priority scheduling entities).

b95303e0ae sched: Add cpus_share_resources API
Add cpus_share_resources() API. This is the preparation for the
optimization of select_idle_cpu() on platforms with cluster scheduler
level.

On a machine with clusters cpus_share_resources() will test whether
two cpus are within the same cluster. On a non-cluster machine it
will behaves the same as cpus_share_cache(). So we use "resources"
here for cache resources.

5ebde09d91 sched/core: Fix RQCF_ACT_SKIP leak
Igor Raits and Bagas Sanjaya report a RQCF_ACT_SKIP leak warning.

This warning may be triggered in the following situations:

    CPU0                                      CPU1

__schedule()
  *rq->clock_update_flags <<= 1;*   unregister_fair_sched_group()

    newidle_balance+0x115/0x3e0       for_each_possible_cpu(i) *i=0*
      rq_unpin_lock(this_rq, rf)      __cfsb_csd_unthrottle()
      raw_spin_rq_unlock(this_rq)
                                      rq_lock(*CPU0_rq*, &rf)
                                      rq_clock_start_loop_update()
                                      rq->clock_update_flags & RQCF_ACT_SKIP <--
      raw_spin_rq_lock(this_rq)

The purpose of RQCF_ACT_SKIP is to skip the update rq clock,
but the update is very early in __schedule(), but we clear
RQCF_*_SKIP very late, causing it to span that gap above
and triggering this warning.

In __schedule() we can clear the RQCF_*_SKIP flag immediately
after update_rq_clock() to avoid this RQCF_ACT_SKIP leak warning.
And set rq->clock_update_flags to RQCF_UPDATED to avoid
rq->clock_update_flags < RQCF_ACT_SKIP warning that may be triggered later.

f0498d2a54 sched: Fix stop_one_cpu_nowait() vs hotplug
Kuyo reported sporadic failures on a sched_setaffinity() vs CPU
hotplug stress-test -- notably affine_move_task() remains stuck in
wait_for_completion(), leading to a hung-task detector warning.

Specifically, it was reported that stop_one_cpu_nowait(.fn =
migration_cpu_stop) returns false -- this stopper is responsible for
the matching complete().

The race scenario is:

	CPU0					CPU1

					// doing _cpu_down()

  __set_cpus_allowed_ptr()
    task_rq_lock();
					takedown_cpu()
					  stop_machine_cpuslocked(take_cpu_down..)

					<PREEMPT: cpu_stopper_thread()
					  MULTI_STOP_PREPARE
					  ...
    __set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked()
      affine_move_task()
        task_rq_unlock();

  <PREEMPT: cpu_stopper_thread()\>
    ack_state()
					  MULTI_STOP_RUN
					    take_cpu_down()
					      __cpu_disable();
					      stop_machine_park();
						stopper->enabled = false;
					 />
   />
	stop_one_cpu_nowait(.fn = migration_cpu_stop);
          if (stopper->enabled) // false!!!

That is, by doing stop_one_cpu_nowait() after dropping rq-lock, the
stopper thread gets a chance to preempt and allows the cpu-down for
the target CPU to complete.

OTOH, since stop_one_cpu_nowait() / cpu_stop_queue_work() needs to
issue a wakeup, it must not be ran under the scheduler locks.

Solve this apparent contradiction by keeping preemption disabled over
the unlock + queue_stopper combination:

	preempt_disable();
	task_rq_unlock(...);
	if (!stop_pending)
	  stop_one_cpu_nowait(...)
	preempt_enable();

This respects the lock ordering contraints while still avoiding the
above race. That is, if we find the CPU is online under rq-lock, the
targeted stop_one_cpu_nowait() must succeed.

Apply this pattern to all similar stop_one_cpu_nowait() invocations.

7bc263840b sched/topology: Consolidate and clean up access to a CPU's max compute capacity
Remove the rq::cpu_capacity_orig field and use arch_scale_cpu_capacity()
instead.

The scheduler uses 3 methods to get access to a CPU's max compute capacity:

 - arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu) which is the default way to get a CPU's capacity.

 - cpu_capacity_orig field which is periodically updated with
   arch_scale_cpu_capacity().

 - capacity_orig_of(cpu) which encapsulates rq->cpu_capacity_orig.

There is no real need to save the value returned by arch_scale_cpu_capacity()
in struct rq. arch_scale_cpu_capacity() returns:

 - either a per_cpu variable.

 - or a const value for systems which have only one capacity.

Remove rq::cpu_capacity_orig and use arch_scale_cpu_capacity() everywhere.

No functional changes.

Some performance tests on Arm64:

  - small SMP device (hikey): no noticeable changes
  - HMP device (RB5):         hackbench shows minor improvement (1-2%)
  - large smp (thx2):         hackbench and tbench shows minor improvement (1%)

The following commit:

  9b3c4ab304 ("sched,rcu: Rework try_invoke_on_locked_down_task()")

... renamed try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to task_call_func(),
but forgot to update the comment in try_to_wake_up().

But it turns out that the smp_rmb() doesn't live in task_call_func()
either, it was moved to __task_needs_rq_lock() in:

  91dabf33ae ("sched: Fix race in task_call_func()")

Fix that now.

Also fix the s/smb/smp typo while at it.
