* sched: Rename task_running() to task_on_cpu()Peter Zijlstra2022-09-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | There is some ambiguity about task_running() in that it is unrelated to TASK_RUNNING but instead tests ->on_cpu. As such, rename the thing task_on_cpu().

* sched/core: Fix the bug that task won't enqueue into core tree when update ↵Cruz Zhao2022-07-211-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cookie In function sched_core_update_cookie(), a task will enqueue into the core tree only when it enqueued before, that is, if an uncookied task is cookied, it will not enqueue into the core tree until it enqueue again, which will result in unnecessary force idle. Here follows the scenario: CPU x and CPU y are a pair of SMT siblings. 1. Start task a running on CPU x without sleeping, and task b and task c running on CPU y without sleeping. 2. We create a cookie and share it to task a and task b, and then we create another cookie and share it to task c. 3. Simpling core_forceidle_sum of task a and b from /proc/PID/sched And we will find out that core_forceidle_sum of task a takes 30% time of the sampling period, which shouldn't happen as task a and b have the same cookie. Then we migrate task a to CPU x', migrate task b and c to CPU y', where CPU x' and CPU y' are a pair of SMT siblings, and sampling again, we will found out that core_forceidle_sum of task a and b are almost zero. To solve this problem, we enqueue the task into the core tree if it's on rq.

* sched/core: add forced idle accounting for cgroupsJosh Don2022-07-041-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 4feee7d1260 previously added per-task forced idle accounting. This patch extends this to also include cgroups. rstat is used for cgroup accounting, except for the root, which uses kcpustat in order to bypass the need for doing an rstat flush when reading root stats. Only cgroup v2 is supported. Similar to the task accounting, the cgroup accounting requires that schedstats is enabled.

* sched/core: Accounting forceidle time for all tasks except idle taskCruz Zhao2022-01-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two types of forced idle time: forced idle time from cookie'd task and forced idle time form uncookie'd task. The forced idle time from uncookie'd task is actually caused by the cookie'd task in runqueue indirectly, and it's more accurate to measure the capacity loss with the sum of both. Assuming cpu x and cpu y are a pair of SMT siblings, consider the following scenarios: 1.There's a cookie'd task running on cpu x, and there're 4 uncookie'd tasks running on cpu y. For cpu x, there will be 80% forced idle time (from uncookie'd task); for cpu y, there will be 20% forced idle time (from cookie'd task). 2.There's a uncookie'd task running on cpu x, and there're 4 cookie'd tasks running on cpu y. For cpu x, there will be 80% forced idle time (from cookie'd task); for cpu y, there will be 20% forced idle time (from uncookie'd task). The scenario1 can recurrent by stress-ng(scenario2 can recurrent similary): (cookie'd)taskset -c x stress-ng -c 1 -l 100 (uncookie'd)taskset -c y stress-ng -c 4 -l 100 In the above two scenarios, the total capacity loss is 1 cpu, but in scenario1, the cookie'd forced idle time tells us 20% cpu capacity loss, in scenario2, the cookie'd forced idle time tells us 80% cpu capacity loss, which are not accurate. It'll be more accurate to measure with cookie'd forced idle time and uncookie'd forced idle time.

* sched/core: Forced idle accountingJosh Don2021-11-171-1/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds accounting for "forced idle" time, which is time where a cookie'd task forces its SMT sibling to idle, despite the presence of runnable tasks. Forced idle time is one means to measure the cost of enabling core scheduling (ie. the capacity lost due to the need to force idle). Forced idle time is attributed to the thread responsible for causing the forced idle. A few details: - Forced idle time is displayed via /proc/PID/sched. It also requires that schedstats is enabled. - Forced idle is only accounted when a sibling hyperthread is held idle despite the presence of runnable tasks. No time is charged if a sibling is idle but has no runnable tasks. - Tasks with 0 cookie are never charged forced idle. - For SMT > 2, we scale the amount of forced idle charged based on the number of forced idle siblings. Additionally, we split the time up and evenly charge it to all running tasks, as each is equally responsible for the forced idle.

In order to activate core scheduling the caller is expected to specify the scope of the new core scheduling domain. For example, passing 2 in the 4th argument of prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_CREATE, <pid>, 2, 0); would indicate that the new core scheduling domain encompasses all tasks in the process group of <pid>. Specifying 0 would only create a core scheduling domain for the thread identified by <pid> and 2 would encompass the whole thread-group of <pid>. Note, the values 0, 1, and 2 correspond to PIDTYPE_PID, PIDTYPE_TGID, and PIDTYPE_PGID. A first version tried to expose those values directly to which I objected because: - PIDTYPE_* is an enum that is kernel internal which we should not expose to userspace directly. - PIDTYPE_* indicates what a given struct pid is used for it doesn't express a scope. But what the 4th argument of PR_SCHED_CORE prctl() expresses is the scope of the operation, i.e. the scope of the core scheduling domain at creation time. So Eugene's patch now simply introduces three new defines PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_THREAD, PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_THREAD_GROUP, and PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_PROCESS_GROUP. They simply express what happens. This has been on the mailing list for quite a while with all relevant scheduler folks Cced. I announced multiple times that I'd pick this up if I don't see or her anyone else doing it. None of this touches proper scheduler code but only concerns uapi so I think this is fine. With core scheduling being quite common now for vm managers (e.g. moving individual vcpu threads into their own core scheduling domain) and container managers (e.g. moving the init process into its own core scheduling domain and letting all created children inherit it) having to rely on raw numbers passed as the 4th argument in prctl() is a bit annoying and everyone is starting to come up with their own defines" * tag 'kernel.sys.v5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: uapi/linux/prctl: provide macro definitions for the PR_SCHED_CORE type argument

* sched: prctl() core-scheduling interfaceChris Hyser2021-05-121-0/+114
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides support for setting and copying core scheduling 'task cookies' between threads (PID), processes (TGID), and process groups (PGID). The value of core scheduling isn't that tasks don't share a core, 'nosmt' can do that. The value lies in exploiting all the sharing opportunities that exist to recover possible lost performance and that requires a degree of flexibility in the API. From a security perspective (and there are others), the thread, process and process group distinction is an existent hierarchal categorization of tasks that reflects many of the security concerns about 'data sharing'. For example, protecting against cache-snooping by a thread that can just read the memory directly isn't all that useful. With this in mind, subcommands to CREATE/SHARE (TO/FROM) provide a mechanism to create and share cookies. CREATE/SHARE_TO specify a target pid with enum pidtype used to specify the scope of the targeted tasks. For example, PIDTYPE_TGID will share the cookie with the process and all of it's threads as typically desired in a security scenario. API: prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_GET, tgtpid, pidtype, &cookie) prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_CREATE, tgtpid, pidtype, NULL) prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_SHARE_TO, tgtpid, pidtype, NULL) prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_SHARE_FROM, srcpid, pidtype, NULL) where 'tgtpid/srcpid == 0' implies the current process and pidtype is kernel enum pid_type {PIDTYPE_PID, PIDTYPE_TGID, PIDTYPE_PGID, ...}. For return values, EINVAL, ENOMEM are what they say. ESRCH means the tgtpid/srcpid was not found. EPERM indicates lack of PTRACE permission access to tgtpid/srcpid. ENODEV indicates your machines lacks SMT.
