7dddba0c69 ANDROID: sched: Exempt paused CPU from nohz idle balance
A CPU can be paused while it is idle with it's tick stopped.
nohz_balance_exit_idle() should be called from the local CPU,
so it can't be called during pause which can happen remotely.
This results in paused CPU participating in the nohz idle balance,
which should be avoided. This can be done by calling

Fix this issue by calling nohz_balance_exit_idle() from the paused
CPU when it exits and enters idle again. This lazy approach avoids
waking the CPU from idle during pause.

b4c9c9f156 sched/fair: Prefer prev cpu in asymmetric wakeup path
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.

- On hikey960 with performance governor (EAS disable)

./perf bench sched pipe -T -l 50000
             mainline           w/ patch
# migrations   999364                  0
ops/sec        149313(+/-0.28%)   182587(+/- 0.40) +22%

- On hikey with performance governor

./perf bench sched pipe -T -l 50000
             mainline           w/ patch
# migrations        0                  0
ops/sec         47721(+/-0.76%)    47899(+/- 0.56) +0.4%

According to test on hikey, the patch doesn't impact symmetric system
compared to current implementation (only tested on arm64)

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.

16b0a7a1a0 sched/fair: Ensure tasks spreading in LLC during LB
schbench shows latency increase for 95 percentile above since:
  commit 0b0695f2b3 ("sched/fair: Rework load_balance()")

Align the behavior of the load balancer with the wake up path, which tries
to select an idle CPU which belongs to the LLC for a waking task.

calculate_imbalance() will use nr_running instead of the spare
capacity when CPUs share resources (ie cache) at the domain level. This
will ensure a better spread of tasks on idle CPUs.

Running schbench on a hikey (8cores arm64) shows the problem:

91989c7078 task_work: cleanup notification modes
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.

(simplified):

  [...]

The intended behavior is to prefer next buddy over last buddy;
the current code somewhat obfuscates this, and also wastes
cycles checking the last buddy when eventually the next buddy is
picked up.

So this patch refactors two 'ifs' above into

233e7aca4c sched/fair: Use dst group while checking imbalance for NUMA balancer
Barry Song noted the following

	Something is wrong. In find_busiest_group(), we are checking if
	src has higher load, however, in task_numa_find_cpu(), we are
	checking if dst will have higher load after balancing. It seems
	it is not sensible to check src.

	It maybe cause wrong imbalance value, for example,

	if dst_running = env->dst_stats.nr_running + 1 results in 3 or
	above, and src_running = env->src_stats.nr_running - 1 results
	in 1;

	The current code is thinking imbalance as 0 since src_running is
	smaller than 2.  This is inconsistent with load balancer.

Basically, in find_busiest_group(), the NUMA imbalance is ignored if moving
a task "from an almost idle domain" to a "domain with spare capacity". This
patch forbids movement "from a misplaced domain" to "an almost idle domain"
as that is closer to what the CPU load balancer expects.

This patch is not a universal win. The old behaviour was intended to allow
a task from an almost idle NUMA node to migrate to its preferred node if
the destination had capacity but there are corner cases.  For example,
a NAS compute load could be parallelised to use 1/3rd of available CPUs
but not all those potential tasks are active at all times allowing this
logic to trigger. An obvious example is specjbb 2005 running various
numbers of warehouses on a 2 socket box with 80 cpus.

The performance at the mid-point is better but not universally better. The
patch is a mixed bag depending on the workload, machine and overall
levels of utilisation. Sometimes it's better (sometimes much better),
other times it is worse (sometimes much worse). Given that there isn't a
universally good decision in this section and more people seem to prefer
the patch then it may be best to keep the LB decisions consistent and
revisit imbalance handling when the load balancer code changes settle down.

Jirka Hladky added the following observation.

	Our results are mostly in line with what you see. We observe
	big gains (20-50%) when the system is loaded to 1/3 of the
	maximum capacity and mixed results at the full load - some
	workloads benefit from the patch at the full load, others not,
	but performance changes at the full load are mostly within the
	noise of results (+/-5%). Overall, we think this patch is helpful.

e4d32e4d54 sched/fair: Minimize concurrent LBs between domain level
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.

5a7f555904 sched/fair: Relax constraint on task's load during load balance
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.

df3cb4ea1f sched/fair: Fix wrong cpu selecting from isolated domain
We've met problems that occasionally tasks with full cpumask
(e.g. by putting it into a cpuset or setting to full affinity)
were migrated to our isolated cpus in production environment.

After some analysis, we found that it is due to the current
select_idle_smt() not considering the sched_domain mask.

Steps to reproduce on my 31-CPU hyperthreads machine:
1. with boot parameter: "isolcpus=domain,2-31"
   (thread lists: 0,16 and 1,17)
2. cgcreate -g cpu:test; cgexec -g cpu:test "test_threads"
3. some threads will be migrated to the isolated cpu16~17.

Fix it by checking the valid domain mask in select_idle_smt().

1724b95b92 sched/fair: Simplify the work when reweighting entity
The code in reweight_entity() can be simplified.

For a sched entity on the rq, the entity accounting can be replaced by
cfs_rq instantaneous load updates currently called from within the
entity accounting.

Even though an entity on the rq can't represent a task in
reweight_entity() (a task is always dequeued before calling this
function) and so the numa task accounting and the rq->cfs_tasks list
management of the entity accounting are never called, the redundant
cfs_rq->nr_running decrement/increment will be avoided.

da0777d35f sched/fair: Fix wrong negative conversion in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
In find_energy_efficient_cpu() 'cpu_cap' could be less that 'util'.
It might be because of RT, DL (so higher sched class than CFS), irq or
thermal pressure signal, which reduce the capacity value.
In such situation the result of 'cpu_cap - util' might be negative but
stored in the unsigned long. Then it might be compared with other unsigned
long when uclamp_rq_util_with() reduced the 'util' such that is passes the
fits_capacity() check.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The most significant change here is the extension of the Energy Model
  to cover non-CPU devices (as well as CPUs) from Lukasz Luba.

  There is also some new hardware support (Ice Lake server idle states
  table for intel_idle, Sapphire Rapids and Power Limit 4 support in the
  RAPL driver), some new functionality in the existing drivers (eg. a
  new switch to disable/enable CPU energy-efficiency optimizations in
  intel_pstate, delayed timers in devfreq), some assorted fixes (cpufreq
  core, intel_pstate, intel_idle) and cleanups (eg. cpuidle-psci,
  devfreq), including the elimination of W=1 build warnings from cpufreq
  done by Lee Jones.

  Specifics:

   - Make the Energy Model cover non-CPU devices (Lukasz Luba).

   - Add Ice Lake server idle states table to the intel_idle driver and
     eliminate a redundant static variable from it (Chen Yu, Rafael
     Wysocki).

   - Eliminate all W=1 build warnings from cpufreq (Lee Jones).

   - Add support for Sapphire Rapids and for Power Limit 4 to the Intel
     RAPL power capping driver (Sumeet Pawnikar, Zhang Rui).

   - Fix function name in kerneldoc comments in the idle_inject power
     capping driver (Yangtao Li).

   - Fix locking issues with cpufreq governors and drop a redundant
     "weak" function definition from cpufreq (Viresh Kumar).

   - Rearrange cpufreq to register non-modular governors at the
     core_initcall level and allow the default cpufreq governor to be
     specified in the kernel command line (Quentin Perret).

   - Extend, fix and clean up the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas
     Pandruvada, Rafael Wysocki):

       * Add a new sysfs attribute for disabling/enabling CPU
         energy-efficiency optimizations in the processor.

       * Make the driver avoid enabling HWP if EPP is not supported.

       * Allow the driver to handle numeric EPP values in the sysfs
         interface and fix the setting of EPP via sysfs in the active
         mode.

       * Eliminate a static checker warning and clean up a kerneldoc
         comment.

   - Clean up some variable declarations in the powernv cpufreq driver
     (Wei Yongjun).

   - Fix up the ->enter_s2idle callback definition to cover the case
     when it points to the same function as ->idle correctly (Neal Liu).

   - Rearrange and clean up the PSCI cpuidle driver (Ulf Hansson).

   - Make the PM core emit "changed" uevent when adding/removing the
     "wakeup" sysfs attribute of devices (Abhishek Pandit-Subedi).

   - Add a helper macro for declaring PM callbacks and use it in the MMC
     jz4740 driver (Paul Cercueil).

   - Fix white space in some places in the hibernate code and make the
     system-wide PM code use "const char *" where appropriate (Xiang
     Chen, Alexey Dobriyan).

   - Add one more "unsafe" helper macro to the freezer to cover the NFS
     use case (He Zhe).

   - Change the language in the generic PM domains framework to use
     parent/child terminology and clean up a typo and some comment
     fromatting in that code (Kees Cook, Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - Update the operating performance points OPP framework (Lukasz Luba,
     Andrew-sh.Cheng, Valdis Kletnieks):

       * Refactor dev_pm_opp_of_register_em() and update related drivers.

       * Add a missing function export.

       * Allow disabled OPPs in dev_pm_opp_get_freq().

   - Update devfreq core and drivers (Chanwoo Choi, Lukasz Luba, Enric
     Balletbo i Serra, Dmitry Osipenko, Kieran Bingham, Marc Zyngier):

       * Add support for delayed timers to the devfreq core and make the
         Samsung exynos5422-dmc driver use it.

       * Unify sysfs interface to use "df-" as a prefix in instance
         names consistently.

       * Fix devfreq_summary debugfs node indentation.

       * Add the rockchip,pmu phandle to the rk3399_dmc driver DT
         bindings.

       * List Dmitry Osipenko as the Tegra devfreq driver maintainer.

       * Fix typos in the core devfreq code.

   - Update the pm-graph utility to version 5.7 including a number of
     fixes related to suspend-to-idle (Todd Brandt).

   - Fix coccicheck errors and warnings in the cpupower utility (Shuah
     Khan).

   - Replace HTTP links with HTTPs ones in multiple places (Alexander A.
     Klimov)"

3edecfef02 sched/fair: update_pick_idlest() Select group with lowest group_util when idle_cpus are equal
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

01cfcde9c2 sched/fair: handle case of task_h_load() returning 0
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.
