sched/debug: Fix memory corruption caused by multiple small reads of flags
sched/fair: Prefer prev cpu in asymmetric wakeup path
sched/fair: Ensure tasks spreading in LLC during LB
During fast wakeup path, scheduler always check whether local or prev
cpus are good candidates for the task before looking for other cpus in
the domain. With commit b7a331615d ("sched/fair: Add asymmetric CPU
capacity wakeup scan") the heterogenous system gains a dedicated path
but doesn't try to reuse prev cpu whenever possible. If the previous
cpu is idle and belong to the LLC domain, we should check it 1st
before looking for another cpu because it stays one of the best
candidate and this also stabilizes task placement on the system.
This change aligns asymmetric path behavior with symmetric one and reduces
cases where the task migrates across all cpus of the sd_asym_cpucapacity
domains at wakeup.
This change does not impact normal EAS mode but only the overloaded case or
when EAS is not used.

Also read the uclamped value of task's utilization at most twice instead
instead each time we compare task's utilization with cpu's capacity.

A previous commit changed the notification mode from true/false to an
int, allowing notify-no, notify-yes, or signal-notify. This was
backwards compatible in the sense that any existing true/false user
would translate to either 0 (on notification sent) or 1, the latter
which mapped to TWA_RESUME. TWA_SIGNAL was assigned a value of 2.
Clean this up properly, and define a proper enum for the notification
mode. Now we have:
- TWA_NONE. This is 0, same as before the original change, meaning no
notification requested.
- TWA_RESUME. This is 1, same as before the original change, meaning
that we use TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME.
- TWA_SIGNAL. This uses TIF_SIGPENDING/JOBCTL_TASK_WORK for the
notification.
Clean up all the callers, switching their 0/1/false/true to using the
appropriate TWA_* mode for notifications.

sched domains tend to trigger simultaneously the load balance loop but
the larger domains often need more time to collect statistics. This
slowness makes the larger domain trying to detach tasks from a rq whereas
tasks already migrated somewhere else at a sub-domain level. This is not
a real problem for idle LB because the period of smaller domains will
increase with its CPUs being busy and this will let time for higher ones
to pulled tasks. But this becomes a problem when all CPUs are already busy
because all domains stay synced when they trigger their LB.
A simple way to minimize simultaneous LB of all domains is to decrement the
the busy interval by 1 jiffies. Because of the busy_factor, the interval of
larger domain will not be a multiple of smaller ones anymore.

Some UCs like 9 always running tasks on 8 CPUs can't be balanced and the
load balancer currently migrates the waiting task between the CPUs in an
almost random manner. The success of a rq pulling a task depends of the
value of nr_balance_failed of its domains and its ability to be faster
than others to detach it. This behavior results in an unfair distribution
of the running time between tasks because some CPUs will run most of the
time, if not always, the same task whereas others will share their time
between several tasks.
Instead of using nr_balance_failed as a boolean to relax the condition
for detaching task, the LB will use nr_balanced_failed to relax the
threshold between the tasks'load and the imbalance. This mecanism
prevents the same rq or domain to always win the load balance fight.

2. cgcreate -g cpu:test; cgexec -g cpu:test "test_threads"

- Fix white space in some places in the hibernate code and make the

* Add a missing function export.
* Allow disabled OPPs in dev_pm_opp_get_freq().

* Fix devfreq_summary debugfs node indentation.

In slow path, when selecting idlest group, if both groups have type
group_has_spare, only idle_cpus count gets compared.
As a result, if multiple tasks are created in a tight loop,
and go back to sleep immediately
(while waiting for all tasks to be created),
they may be scheduled on the same core, because CPU is back to idle
when the new fork happen.
For example:
sudo perf record -e sched:sched_wakeup_new -- \
sysbench threads --threads=4 run
...
total number of events: 61582
...
sudo perf script
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.633466: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129380 [120] success=1 CPU:007
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.634718: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129381 [120] success=1 CPU:007
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.635957: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129382 [120] success=1 CPU:007
sysbench 129378 [006] 74586.637183: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129383 [120] success=1 CPU:007
This may have negative impact on performance for workloads with frequent
creation of multiple threads.
In this patch we are using group_util to select idlest group if both groups
have equal number of idle_cpus. Comparing the number of idle cpu is
not enough in this case, because the newly forked thread sleeps
immediately and before we select the cpu for the next one.
This is shown in the trace where the same CPU7 is selected for
all wakeup_new events.
That's why, looking at utilization when there is the same number of
CPU is a good way to see where the previous task was placed. Using
nr_running doesn't solve the problem because the newly forked task is not
running and the cpu would not have been idle in this case and an idle
CPU would have been selected instead.
With this patch newly created tasks would be better distributed.
With this patch:
sudo perf record -e sched:sched_wakeup_new -- \
sysbench threads --threads=4 run
...
total number of events: 74401
...
sudo perf script
sysbench 129455 [006] 75232.853257: sched:sched_wakeup_new:
sysbench:129457 [120] success=1 CPU:008

task_h_load() can return 0 in some situations like running stress-ng
mmapfork, which forks thousands of threads, in a sched group on a 224 cores
system. The load balance doesn't handle this correctly because
env->imbalance never decreases and it will stop pulling tasks only after
reaching loop_max, which can be equal to the number of running tasks of
the cfs. Make sure that imbalance will be decreased by at least 1.
misfit task is the other feature that doesn't handle correctly such
situation although it's probably more difficult to face the problem
because of the smaller number of CPUs and running tasks on heterogenous
system.
We can't simply ensure that task_h_load() returns at least one because it
would imply to handle underflow in other places.
