Since load-balancing is loosely (read not) synchronized, the weight of individual cpus can change between doing the sum and calculating the ratio. The previous patch dealt with only one of the race scenarios, this patch side steps them all by saving a snapshot of all the individual cpu weights, thereby always working on a consistent set.

The motivation is that things that use the root-domain code (such as cpupri) only care about cpus classified as "active" anyway. By synchronizing the root-domain state with the active map, we allow several optimizations. For instance, we can remove an extra cpumask_and from the scheduler hotpath by utilizing rq->rd->online (since it is now a cached version of cpu_active_map & rq->rd->span).

This leads to an awkward exchange of the variable as it bubbles back up out of the context switch. Peter Zijlstra observed that this information could be stored in the run-queue itself instead of handled on the stack. Therefore, we revert to the method of having context_switch return void, and update an internal rq->post_schedule variable when we require further processing. In addition, we fix a race condition where we try to access current->sched_class without holding the rq->lock. This is technically racy, as the sched-class could change out from under us. Instead, we reference the per-rq post_schedule variable with the runqueue unlocked, but with preemption disabled to see if we need to reacquire the rq->lock. Finally, we clean the code up slightly by removing the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP conditionals from the schedule() call, and implement some inline helper functions instead. This patch passes checkpatch, and rt-migrate.

In order to avoid starvation of newly placed tasks, we never quite set the share of an empty cpu group-task to 0, but instead we set it as if there's a single NICE-0 task present. If however we actually set this in cfs_rq[cpu]->shares, that means the total shares for that group will be slightly inflated every time we balance, causing the observed unfairness. Fix this by setting cfs_rq[cpu]->shares to 0 but actually setting the effective weight of the related se to the inflated number.

It's better to check the sleeps while atomic earlier and not depend on some environment datas that reduce the chances to detect a problem. Also define cond_resched_*() helpers as macros, so that the FILE/LINE reported in the sleeping while atomic warning displays the real origin and not sched.h Changes in v2: - Call __might_sleep() directly instead of might_sleep() which may call cond_resched() - Turn cond_resched() into a macro so that the file:line couple reported refers to the caller of cond_resched() and not __cond_resched() itself. Changes in v3: - Also propagate this __might_sleep() pull up to cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq() Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <1247725694-6082-6-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

If set this will make sure that when the process forks a) the scheduling priority is reset to DEFAULT_PRIO if it was higher and b) the scheduling policy is reset to SCHED_NORMAL if it was either SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR. Why have this? Currently, if a process is real-time scheduled this will 'leak' to all its child processes. For security reasons it is often (always?) a good idea to make sure that if a process acquires RT scheduling this is confined to this process and only this process. More specifically this makes the per-process resource limit RLIMIT_RTTIME useful for security purposes, because it makes it impossible to use a fork bomb to circumvent the per-process RLIMIT_RTTIME accounting. This feature is also useful for tools like 'renice' which can then change the nice level of a process without having this spill to all its child processes. Why expose this via sched_setscheduler() and not other syscalls such as prctl() or sched_setparam()? prctl() does not take a pid parameter. Due to that it would be impossible to modify this flag for other processes than the current one. The struct passed to sched_setparam() can unfortunately not be extended without breaking compatibility, since sched_setparam() lacks a size parameter. How to use this from userspace? In your RT program simply replace this: sched_setscheduler(pid, SCHED_FIFO, &param); by this: sched_setscheduler(pid, SCHED_FIFO|SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK, &param); Signed-off-by: Lennart Poettering <lennart@poettering.net> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <20090615152714.GA29092@tango.0pointer.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
