[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 00/11] reducing overhead for tg->shares distribution

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 00/11] reducing overhead for tg->shares distribution

[Paul Turner]

This is v2 of the tg_shares_up re-write previously posted at:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/16/17

The key idea behind this patchset is an idea of Peter Zijlstra to compute
global loads as a function of local averages avoiding the cpu-cpu interactions
which previously plagued tg_shares_up.

Not much 'material' has changed since v1 since results seem favourable/stable.
The only functional change is a bug fix in the wake_affine path where the v1
was using the waking task's group shares at all levels instead of the per-level
task_group.

Changes:
sched-rework-tg_shares_up.patch
- use owning tg->shares value in effective_load
- remove redundant cfs_rq_of() in {enqueue,dequeue}_entity

sched-tg-add-shares_window_sysctl.patch
- update comment on sysctl interpretation

sched-tg-fix-update_cfs_load.patch
- update comment to reflect periods instead of foldings (more intuitive)

Some motivation again:
24 thread Intel box, 150 active cgroups, multiple threads/group, system load at ~90% (sample size=10s):
tip:
     2.64%  [k] tg_shares_up <!>
     0.15%  [k] __set_se_shares

patched:
     0.02%  [k] update_cfs_load
     0.01%  [k] update_cpu_load
     0.00%  [k] update_cfs_shares

Fairness coverage for the above at: http://rs5.risingnet.net/~pjt/patches/shares_data_v1.txt

Thanks,

- Paul

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 01/11] sched: rewrite tg_shares_up

[Paul Turner]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-rework-tg_shares_up.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 19055 bytes --]

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>

By tracking a per-cpu load-avg for each cfs_rq and folding it into a
global task_group load on each tick we can rework tg_shares_up to be
strictly per-cpu.

This should improve cpu-cgroup performance for smp systems
significantly.

[ Paul: changed to use queueing cfs_rq + bug fixes ]

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 02/11] sched: on-demand (active) cfs_rq list

[Paul Turner]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-ondemand.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 12195 bytes --]

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>

Make certain load-balance actions scale per number of active cgroups
instead of the number of existing cgroups.

This makes wakeup/sleep paths more expensive, but is a win for systems
where the vast majority of existing cgroups are idle.

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 03/11] sched: make tg_shares_up() walk on-demand

[Paul Turner]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-more-ondemand.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4421 bytes --]

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>

Make tg_shares_up() use the active cgroup list, this means we cannot
do a strict bottom-up walk of the hierarchy, but assuming its a very
wide tree with a small number of active groups it should be a win.

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 04/11] sched: fix load corruption from update_cfs_shares

[Paul Turner]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-fix-update_cfs_shares.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3223 bytes --]

as part of enqueue_entity both a new entity weight and its contribution to the
queuing cfs_rq / rq are updated.  Since update_cfs_shares will only update the
queueing weights when the entity is on_rq (which in this case it is not yet),
there's a dependency loop here:

update_cfs_shares needs account_entity_enqueue to update cfs_rq->load.weight
account_entity_enqueue needs the updated weight for the queuing cfs_rq load[*]

Fix this and avoid spurious dequeue/enqueues by issuing update_cfs_shares as
if we had accounted the enqueue already.

This was also resulting in rq->load corruption previously.

[*]: this dependency also exists when using the group cfs_rq w/ 
update_cfs_shares as the weight of the enqueued entity changes without the
load being updated.

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 05/11] sched: fix update_cfs_load synchronization

[Paul Turner]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-fix-update_cfs_load.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4075 bytes --]

Using cfs_rq->nr_running is not sufficient to synchronize update_cfs_load with
the put path since nr_running accounting occurs at deactivation.

It's also not safe to make the removal decision based on load_avg as this fails
with both high periods and low shares.  Resolve this by clipping history at 8
foldings.

Note: the above will always occur from update_shares() since in the 
last-task-sleep-case that task will still be cfs_rq->curr when update_cfs_load is 
called.

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 06/11] sched: hierarchal order on shares update list

[Paul Turner]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-order-ondemand-list.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2357 bytes --]

Avoid duplicate shares update calls by ensuring children always appear before
parents in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list.

This allows us to do a single in-order traversal for update_shares().

Since we always enqueue in bottom-up order this reduces to 2 cases:
1) Our parent is already in the list, e.g.

   root
     \
      b
      /\
      c d* (root->b->c already enqueued)

Since d's parent is enqueued we push it to the head of the list, implicitly ahead of b.

2) Our parent does not appear in the list (or we have no parent)
In this case we enqueue to the tail of the list, if our parent is subsequently enqueued 
(bottom-up) it will appear to our right by the same rule.

This patch breaks the build, you didn't update the arguments of
update_cfs_load() in the !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED case.

And even with this fixed there are even larger problems, as you're
making access to structure members such as 'load_unacc_exec_time'
which only exist when CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is set, but you're doing
it in code that is built unconditionally.

Please fix all of these build problems, as I want to test your changes
without all of the group scheduler bloat turned on.

Thanks.

Re: [tg_shares_up rewrite v2 10/11] sched: allow update_cfs_load to update global load

[Paul Turner]

Ah, I should have checked that, sorry.

I've fixed these errors for a v3.  But in fixing them I've realized I
think we have a race in sched_destroy_group() (in patch 2/11).

While it's true that we are safe for a subsequent enqueue in the same
group, we're not protected against a list element being removed due to
decay in the update shares path.  Or from a another group being
enqueued (via wake-up).

Might as well fix this at the same time so I'll fix it and send out in
the morning.

Thanks!

Won't do much good though, this patch-set is fixing a pure group
scheduler problem.

[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 11/11] sched: update tg->shares after cpu.shares write

[Paul Turner]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-fix_group_set_shares.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2279 bytes --]

Formerly sched_group_set_shares would force a rebalance by overflowing domain
share sums.  Now that per-cpu averages are maintained we can set the true value
by issuing an update_cfs_shares() following a tg->shares update.

Also initialize tg se->load to 0 for consistency since we'll now set correct
weights on enqueue.
