* [PATCH 01/19] fs: add an iopoll method to struct file_operations
From: Jens Axboe @ 2019-02-08 17:34 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20190208173423.27014-1-axboe@kernel.dk>

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

This new methods is used to explicitly poll for I/O completion for an
iocb.  It must be called for any iocb submitted asynchronously (that
is with a non-null ki_complete) which has the IOCB_HIPRI flag set.

The method is assisted by a new ki_cookie field in struct iocb to store
the polling cookie.

* [PATCHSET v13] io_uring IO interface
From: Jens Axboe @ 2019-02-08 17:34 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-aio, linux-block, linux-api; +Cc: hch, jmoyer, avi, jannh, viro

Here's v13 of the io_uring project, hot on the heels of v12. v12 had
a few silly regressions due to flipping things around for the SCM
fd passing changes. v13 also decouples the SCM fd management from
how many fixed files we support, so instead of a fairly random 253
file limit, we now impose a 1024 file limit for a file set.

The AF_UNIX scm parts have been split into its own file. This was
needed to prevent issues with CONFIG_UNIX=m, since io_uring is
always builtin.

Nothing major in here apart from that. Go forth and test and review,
so we can hopefully get this queued up sooner rather than later.

The liburing git repo has a full set of man pages for this, though they
could probably still use a bit of polish. I'd also like to see a
io_uring(7) man page to describe the overall design of the project,
expect that in the not-so-distant future. You can clone that here:

git://git.kernel.dk/liburing

Patches are against 5.0-rc5, and can also be found in my io_uring branch
here:

git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block io_uring

Changes since v12:
- Fix release of uid struct at buffer unregister time
- Fix leak of request for poll command on submission time errors
- Allow huge pages for pre-mapped buffers
- Use alloc_skb() instead of __alloc_skb()
- Make max fixed files independent of SCM_MAX_FD (now 1024)
- Use CONFIG_UNIX instead of CONFIG_NET
- Export io_uring_get_socket for CONFIG_UNIX=m
- Add net/unix/scm.c with the helpers io_uring needs
- Disallow registering the io_uring fd to prevent a deadlock
  with !CONFIG_UNIX

I don't think it matters. The files in the fixed file set have already
been opened by the application, so it counts towards the number of open
files that is allowed to have. I don't think we should impose further
limits on top of that.

I saw you were limiting to SCM_MAX_FD per io_uring.  On the other hand, 
there's no specific limit on the number of io_urings you can open (only 
the standard limits on fds).  So this would let you allocate hundreds of 
times more files than the previous limit RLIMIT_NOFILE...

static inline bool too_many_unix_fds(struct task_struct *p)
{
	struct user_struct *user = current_user();

	if (unlikely(user->unix_inflight > task_rlimit(p, RLIMIT_NOFILE)))
		return !capable(CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) && !capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN);
	return false;
}

RLIMIT_NOFILE is technically per-task, but here it is capping 
unix_inflight per-user.  So the way I look at this, the number of file 
descriptors per user is bounded by NOFILE * NPROC.  Then 
user->unix_inflight can have one additional process' worth (NOFILE) of 
"inflight" files.  (Plus SCM_MAX_FD slop, because too_many_fds() is only 
called once per SCM_RIGHTS).

Because io_uring doesn't check too_many_unix_fds(), I think it will let 
you have about 253 (or 1024) more process' worth of open files. That 
could be big proportionally when RLIMIT_NPROC is low.

I don't know if it matters.  It maybe reads like an oversight though.

(If it does matter, it might be cleanest to change too_many_unix_fds() 
to get rid of the "slop".  Since that may be different between af_unix 
and io_uring; 253 v.s. 1024 or whatever. E.g. add a parameter for the 
number of inflight files we want to add.)

Yes that's a good idea, I've added a comment as to why we go through the
trouble of doing this socket + skb dance.

As the code stands above, it'll cap it at 253. I'm just now reworking it
to NOT be limited to the SCM max fd count, but still impose a limit of
1024 on the number of registered files. This is important to cap the
memory allocation attempt as well.

> Also, this code relies on CONFIG_NET.  To handle the case where

Good point, we do still need to reject the io_uring fd itself if
CONFIG_UNIX is not enabled. Done.

This code sounds elegant if you know about the existence of unix_gc(), 
but quite mysterious if you don't.  (E.g. why "inflight"?)  Could we 
have a brief comment, to comfort mortal readers on their journey?

/* A message on a unix socket can hold a reference to a file. This can 
cause a reference cycle. So there is a garbage collector for unix 
sockets, which we hook into here. */

I think this is bypassing too_many_unix_fds() though?  I understood that 
was intended to bound kernel memory allocation, at least in principle.

Also, this code relies on CONFIG_NET.  To handle the case where 
CONFIG_NET is not enabled, don't you still need to forbid registering an 
io_uring fd ?

* [PATCH v7 15/15] sched/core: uclamp: Update CPU's refcount on TG's clamp changes

On updates of task group (TG) clamp values, ensure that these new values
are enforced on all RUNNABLE tasks of the task group, i.e. all RUNNABLE
tasks are immediately boosted and/or clamped as requested.

Do that by slightly refactoring uclamp_bucket_inc(). An additional
parameter *cgroup_subsys_state (css) is used to walk the list of tasks
in the TGs and update the RUNNABLE ones. Do that by taking the rq
lock for each task, the same mechanism used for cpu affinity masks
updates.

* [PATCH v7 14/15] sched/core: uclamp: Use TG's clamps to restrict TASK's clamps
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)

  Cc: Ingo Molnar, Peter Zijlstra, Tejun Heo, Rafael J . Wysocki,

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

When a task specific clamp value is configured via sched_setattr(2),
this value is accounted in the corresponding clamp bucket every time the
task is {en,de}qeued. However, when cgroups are also in use, the task
specific clamp values could be restricted by the task_group (TG)
clamp values.

Update uclamp_cpu_inc() to aggregate task and TG clamp values. Every
time a task is enqueued, it's accounted in the clamp_bucket defining the
smaller clamp between the task specific value and its TG effective
value. This allows to:

1. ensure cgroup clamps are always used to restrict task specific
   requests, i.e. boosted only up to the effective granted value or
   clamped at least to a certain value

2. implement a "nice-like" policy, where tasks are still allowed to
   request less then what enforced by their current TG

This mimics what already happens for a task's CPU affinity mask when the
task is also in a cpuset, i.e. cgroup attributes are always used to
restrict per-task attributes.

Do this by exploiting the concept of "effective" clamp, which is already
used by a TG to track parent enforced restrictions.

Apply task group clamp restrictions only to tasks belonging to a child
group. While, for tasks in the root group or in an autogroup, only
system defaults are enforced.

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

The clamp values are not tunable at the level of the root task group.
That's for two main reasons:

 - the root group represents "system resources" which are always
   entirely available from the cgroup standpoint.

 - when tuning/restricting "system resources" makes sense, tuning must
   be done using a system wide API which should also be available when
   control groups are not.

When a system wide restriction is available, cgroups should be aware of
its value in order to know exactly how much "system resources" are
available for the subgroups.

Utilization clamping supports already the concepts of:

 - system defaults: which define the maximum possible clamp values
   usable by tasks.

 - effective clamps: which allows a parent cgroup to constraint (maybe
   temporarily) its descendants without losing the information related
   to the values "requested" from them.

Exploit these two concepts and bind them together in such a way that,
whenever system default are tuned, the new values are propagated to
(possibly) restrict or relax the "effective" value of nested cgroups.

In order to properly support hierarchical resources control, the cgroup
delegation model requires that attribute writes from a child group never
fail but still are (potentially) constrained based on parent's assigned
resources. This requires to properly propagate and aggregate parent
attributes down to its descendants.

Let's implement this mechanism by adding a new "effective" clamp value
for each task group. The effective clamp value is defined as the smaller
value between the clamp value of a group and the effective clamp value
of its parent. This is the actual clamp value enforced on tasks in a
task group.

Since it can be interesting for userspace, e.g. system management
software, to know exactly what the currently propagated/enforced
configuration is, the effective clamp values are exposed to user-space
by means of a new pair of read-only attributes
cpu.util.{min,max}.effective.

* [PATCH v7 11/15] sched/core: uclamp: Extend CPU's cgroup controller
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-kernel, linux-pm, linux-api

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

The cgroup CPU bandwidth controller allows to assign a specified
(maximum) bandwidth to the tasks of a group. However this bandwidth is
defined and enforced only on a temporal base, without considering the
actual frequency a CPU is running on. Thus, the amount of computation
completed by a task within an allocated bandwidth can be very different
depending on the actual frequency the CPU is running that task.
The amount of computation can be affected also by the specific CPU a
task is running on, especially when running on asymmetric capacity
systems like Arm's big.LITTLE.

With the availability of schedutil, the scheduler is now able
to drive frequency selections based on actual task utilization.
Moreover, the utilization clamping support provides a mechanism to
bias the frequency selection operated by schedutil depending on
constraints assigned to the tasks currently RUNNABLE on a CPU.

Giving the mechanisms described above, it is now possible to extend the
cpu controller to specify the minimum (or maximum) utilization which
should be considered for tasks RUNNABLE on a cpu.
This makes it possible to better defined the actual computational
power assigned to task groups, thus improving the cgroup CPU bandwidth
controller which is currently based just on time constraints.

Extend the CPU controller with a couple of new attributes util.{min,max}
which allows to enforce utilization boosting and capping for all the
tasks in a group. Specifically:

- util.min: defines the minimum utilization which should be considered
	    i.e. the RUNNABLE tasks of this group will run at least at a
		 minimum frequency which corresponds to the min_util
		 utilization

- util.max: defines the maximum utilization which should be considered
	    i.e. the RUNNABLE tasks of this group will run up to a
		 maximum frequency which corresponds to the max_util
		 utilization

These attributes:

a) are available only for non-root nodes, both on default and legacy
   hierarchies, while system wide clamps are defined by a generic
   interface which does not depends on cgroups

b) do not enforce any constraints and/or dependencies between the parent
   and its child nodes, thus relying:
   - on permission settings defined by the system management software,
     to define if subgroups can configure their clamp values
   - on the delegation model, to ensure that effective clamps are
     updated to consider both subgroup requests and parent group
     constraints

c) have higher priority than task-specific clamps, defined via
   sched_setattr(), thus allowing to control and restrict task requests

This patch provides the basic support to expose the two new attributes
and to validate their run-time updates, while we do not (yet) actually
allocated clamp buckets.

* [PATCH v7 10/15] sched/fair: uclamp: Add uclamp support to energy_compute()
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-kernel, linux-pm, linux-api

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

The Energy Aware Scheduler (AES) estimates the energy impact of waking
up a task on a given CPU. This estimation is based on:
 a) an (active) power consumptions defined for each CPU frequency
 b) an estimation of which frequency will be used on each CPU
 c) an estimation of the busy time (utilization) of each CPU

Utilization clamping can affect both b) and c) estimations. A CPU is
expected to run:
 - on an higher than required frequency, but for a shorter time, in case
   its estimated utilization will be smaller then the minimum utilization
   enforced by uclamp
 - on a smaller than required frequency, but for a longer time, in case
   its estimated utilization is bigger then the maximum utilization
   enforced by uclamp

While effects on busy time for both boosted/capped tasks are already
considered by compute_energy(), clamping effects on frequency selection
are currently ignored by that function.

Fix it by considering how CPU clamp values will be affected by a
task waking up and being RUNNABLE on that CPU.

Do that by refactoring schedutil_freq_util() to take an additional
task_struct* which allows EAS to evaluate the impact on clamp values of
a task being eventually queued in a CPU. Clamp values are applied to the
RT+CFS utilization only when a FREQUENCY_UTIL is required by
compute_energy().

Do note that switching from ENERGY_UTIL to FREQUENCY_UTIL in the
computation of cpu_util signal implies that we are more likely to
estimate the higherst OPP when a RT task is running in another CPU of
the same performance domain. This can have an impact on energy
estimation but:
 - it's not easy to say which approach is better, since it quite likely
   depends on the use case
 - the original approach could still be obtained by setting a smaller
   task-specific util_min whenever required

Since we are at that:
 - rename schedutil_freq_util() into schedutil_cpu_util(),
   since it's not only used for frequency selection.
 - use "unsigned int" instead of "unsigned long" whenever the tracked
   utilization value is not expected to overflow 32bit.

Currently uclamp_util() allows to clamp a specified utilization
considering the clamp values requested by RUNNABLE tasks in a CPU.
Sometimes however, it could be interesting to verify how clamp values
will change when a task is going to be running on a given CPU.
For example, the Energy Aware Scheduler (EAS) is interested in
evaluating and comparing the energy impact of different scheduling
decisions.

Add uclamp_util_with() which allows to clamp a given utilization by
considering the possible impact on CPU clamp values of a specified task.

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

Each time a frequency update is required via schedutil, a frequency is
selected to (possibly) satisfy the utilization reported by each
scheduling class. However, when utilization clamping is in use, the
frequency selection should consider userspace utilization clamping
hints.  This will allow, for example, to:

 - boost tasks which are directly affecting the user experience
   by running them at least at a minimum "requested" frequency

 - cap low priority tasks not directly affecting the user experience
   by running them only up to a maximum "allowed" frequency

These constraints are meant to support a per-task based tuning of the
frequency selection thus supporting a fine grained definition of
performance boosting vs energy saving strategies in kernel space.

Add support to clamp the utilization of RUNNABLE FAIR and RT tasks
within the boundaries defined by their aggregated utilization clamp
constraints.

Do that by considering the max(min_util, max_util) to give boosted tasks
the performance they need even when they happen to be co-scheduled with
other capped tasks.

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

By default FAIR tasks start without clamps, i.e. neither boosted nor
capped, and they run at the best frequency matching their utilization
demand.  This default behavior does not fit RT tasks which instead are
expected to run at the maximum available frequency, if not otherwise
required by explicitly capping them.

Enforce the correct behavior for RT tasks by setting util_min to max
whenever:

 1. a task is switched to the RT class and it does not already have a
    user-defined clamp value assigned.

 2. a task is forked from a parent with RESET_ON_FORK set.

NOTE: utilization clamp values are cross scheduling class attributes and
thus they are never changed/reset once a value has been explicitly
defined from user-space.

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

A forked tasks gets the same clamp values of its parent however, when
the RESET_ON_FORK flag is set on parent, e.g. via:

   sys_sched_setattr()
      sched_setattr()
         __sched_setscheduler(attr::SCHED_FLAG_RESET_ON_FORK)

the new forked task is expected to start with all attributes reset to
default values.

Do that for utilization clamp values too by caching the reset request
and propagating it into the existing uclamp_fork() call which already
provides the required initialization for other uclamp related bits.

* [PATCH v7 05/15] sched/core: uclamp: Extend sched_setattr() to support utilization clamping
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

The SCHED_DEADLINE scheduling class provides an advanced and formal
model to define tasks requirements that can translate into proper
decisions for both task placements and frequencies selections. Other
classes have a more simplified model based on the POSIX concept of
priorities.

Such a simple priority based model however does not allow to exploit
most advanced features of the Linux scheduler like, for example, driving
frequencies selection via the schedutil cpufreq governor. However, also
for non SCHED_DEADLINE tasks, it's still interesting to define tasks
properties to support scheduler decisions.

Utilization clamping exposes to user-space a new set of per-task
attributes the scheduler can use as hints about the expected/required
utilization for a task. This allows to implement a "proactive" per-task
frequency control policy, a more advanced policy than the current one
based just on "passive" measured task utilization. For example, it's
possible to boost interactive tasks (e.g. to get better performance) or
cap background tasks (e.g. to be more energy/thermal efficient).

Introduce a new API to set utilization clamping values for a specified
task by extending sched_setattr(), a syscall which already allows to
define task specific properties for different scheduling classes. A new
pair of attributes allows to specify a minimum and maximum utilization
the scheduler can consider for a task.

Do that by checking and validating the required clamp values before and
then applying the required changes using _the_ same pattern already in
use for __setscheduler(). This ensures that the task is re-enqueued with
the new clamp values.

Do not allow to change sched class specific params and non class
specific params (i.e. clamp values) at the same time.  This keeps things
simple and still works for the most common cases since we are usually
interested in just one of the two actions.

Changes in v7:
 Message-ID: <20190124123814.GM13777@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net>
 - split validation code from actual state changing code
 - for state changing code, use _the_ same pattern __setscheduler() and
   other code already use, i.e. dequeue-change-enqueue
 - add SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS and use it to skip __setscheduler() when
   policy and params are not specified

* [PATCH v7 04/15] sched/core: Allow sched_setattr() to use the current policy

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

The sched_setattr() syscall mandates that a policy is always specified.
This requires to always know which policy a task will have when
attributes are configured and it makes it impossible to add more generic
task attributes valid across different scheduling policies.
Reading the policy before setting generic tasks attributes is racy since
we cannot be sure it is not changed concurrently.

Introduce the required support to change generic task attributes without
affecting the current task policy. This is done by adding an attribute flag
(SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY) to enforce the usage of the current policy.

This is done by extending to the sched_setattr() non-POSIX syscall with
the SETPARAM_POLICY policy already used by the sched_setparam() POSIX
syscall.

* [PATCH v7 03/15] sched/core: uclamp: Add system default clamps
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

Tasks without a user-defined clamp value are considered not clamped
and by default their utilization can have any value in the
[0..SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE] range.

Tasks with a user-defined clamp value are allowed to request any value
in that range, and we unconditionally enforce the required clamps.
However, a "System Management Software" could be interested in limiting
the range of clamp values allowed for all tasks.

Add a privileged interface to define a system default configuration via:

  /proc/sys/kernel/sched_uclamp_util_{min,max}

which works as an unconditional clamp range restriction for all tasks.

The default configuration allows the full range of SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
values for each clamp index. If otherwise configured, a task specific
clamp is always capped by the corresponding system default value.

Do that by tracking, for each task, the "effective" clamp value and
bucket the task has been actual refcounted in at enqueue time. This
allows to lazy aggregate "requested" and "system default" values at
enqueue time and simplify refcounting updates at dequeue time.

The cached bucket ids are used to avoid (relatively) more expensive
integer divisions every time a task is enqueued.

An active flag is used to report when the "effective" value is valid and
thus the task actually refcounted in the corresponding rq's bucket.

* [PATCH v7 02/15] sched/core: uclamp: Enforce last task UCLAMP_MAX
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

When the task sleeps, it removes its max utilization clamp from its CPU.
However, the blocked utilization on that CPU can be higher than the max
clamp value enforced while the task was running. This allows undesired
CPU frequency increases while a CPU is idle, for example, when another
CPU on the same frequency domain triggers a frequency update, since
schedutil can now see the full not clamped blocked utilization of the
idle CPU.

Fix this by using
  uclamp_rq_dec_id(p, rq, UCLAMP_MAX)
    uclamp_rq_update(rq, UCLAMP_MAX, clamp_value)
to detect when a CPU has no more RUNNABLE clamped tasks and to flag this
condition.

Don't track any minimum utilization clamps since an idle CPU never
requires a minimum frequency. The decay of the blocked utilization is
good enough to reduce the CPU frequency.

* [PATCH v7 01/15] sched/core: uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-kernel, linux-pm, linux-api
  Cc: Ingo Molnar, Peter Zijlstra, Tejun Heo, Rafael J . Wysocki,
	Vincent Guittot, Viresh Kumar, Paul Turner, Quentin Perret,
	Dietmar Eggemann, Morten Rasmussen, Juri Lelli, Todd Kjos,
	Joel Fernandes, Steve Muckle, Suren Baghdasaryan
In-Reply-To: <20190208100554.32196-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com>

Utilization clamping allows to clamp the CPU's utilization within a
[util_min, util_max] range, depending on the set of RUNNABLE tasks on
that CPU. Each task references two "clamp buckets" defining its minimum
and maximum (util_{min,max}) utilization "clamp values". A CPU's clamp
bucket is active if there is at least one RUNNABLE tasks enqueued on
that CPU and refcounting that bucket.

When a task is {en,de}queued {on,from} a rq, the set of active clamp
buckets on that CPU can change. Since each clamp bucket enforces a
different utilization clamp value, when the set of active clamp buckets
changes, a new "aggregated" clamp value is computed for that CPU.

Clamp values are always MAX aggregated for both util_min and util_max.
This ensures that no tasks can affect the performance of other
co-scheduled tasks which are more boosted (i.e. with higher util_min
clamp) or less capped (i.e. with higher util_max clamp).

Each task has a:
   task_struct::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket_id
to track the "bucket index" of the CPU's clamp bucket it refcounts while
enqueued, for each clamp index (clamp_id).

Each CPU's rq has a:
   rq::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket[bucket_id].tasks
to track how many tasks, currently RUNNABLE on that CPU, refcount each
clamp bucket (bucket_id) of a clamp index (clamp_id).

Each CPU's rq has also a:
   rq::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket[bucket_id].value
to track the clamp value of each clamp bucket (bucket_id) of a clamp
index (clamp_id).

The rq::uclamp::bucket[clamp_id][] array is scanned every time we need
to find a new MAX aggregated clamp value for a clamp_id. This operation
is required only when we dequeue the last task of a clamp bucket
tracking the current MAX aggregated clamp value. In these cases, the CPU
is either entering IDLE or going to schedule a less boosted or more
clamped task.
The expected number of different clamp values, configured at build time,
is small enough to fit the full unordered array into a single cache
line.

Add the basic data structures required to refcount, in each CPU's rq,
the number of RUNNABLE tasks for each clamp bucket. Add also the max
aggregation required to update the rq's clamp value at each
enqueue/dequeue event.

Use a simple linear mapping of clamp values into clamp buckets.
Pre-compute and cache bucket_id to avoid integer divisions at
enqueue/dequeue time.

Changes in v7:
 Message-ID: <20190123191007.GG17749@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net>
 - removed buckets mapping code
 - use a simpler linear mapping of clamp values into buckets
 Message-ID: <20190124161443.lv2pw5fsspyelckq@e110439-lin>
 - move this patch at the beginning of the series,
   in the attempt to make the overall series easier to digest by moving
   at the very beginning the core bits and main data structures
 Others:
 - update the mapping logic to use exactly and only
   UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT buckets, i.e. no more "special" bucket
 - update uclamp_rq_update() to do top-bottom max search

* [PATCH v7 00/15] Add utilization clamping support
From: Patrick Bellasi @ 2019-02-08 10:05 UTC (permalink / raw)

Hi all, this is a respin of:

   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190115101513.2822-1-patrick.bellasi@arm.com/

which includes the following main changes:

 - remove the mapping code and use a simple linear mapping of
   clamp values into buckets
 - move core bits and main data structures at the beginning,
   in a further attempt to make the overall series easier to digest
 - update the mapping logic to use exactly UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT buckets,
   i.e. no more "special" bucket for default values
 - update uclamp_rq_update() to do a top-to-bottom max search
 - make system defaults to support a "nice" policy where a task, for
   each clamp index, can get only "up to" what allowed by the system
   default setting, i.e. tasks are always allowed to request for less
 - get rid of "perf" system defaults and initialize RT tasks as max boosted
 - fix definition of SCHED_POLICY_MAX
 - split sched_setattr()'s validation code from actual state changing code
 - for sched_setattr()'s state changing code, use _the_ same pattern
   __setscheduler() and other code already use,
   i.e. dequeue-change-enqueue
 - add SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS and use it to skip __setscheduler() when
   policy and params are not specified
 - schedutil: add FAIR and RT integration with a single patch
 - drop clamping for IOWait boost
 - fixed go to max for RT tasks on !CONFIG_UCLAMP_TASK
 - add a note on side-effects due to the usage of FREQUENCY_UTIL for
   performance domain frequency estimation and add a similar note to this
   changelog
 - ensure clamp values are not tunable at root cgroup level
 - propagate system defaults to root group's effective value

Thanks for all the valuable comments, let see where we stand now ;)

Cheers Patrick


Series Organization
===================

The series is organized into these main sections:

 - Patches [01-07]: Per task (primary) API
 - Patches    [08]: Schedutil integration for FAIR and RT tasks
 - Patches [09-10]: Integration with EAS's energy_compute()
 - Patches [11-15]: Per task group (secondary) API

It is based on today's tip/sched/core and the full tree is available here:

   git://linux-arm.org/linux-pb.git   lkml/utilclamp_v7
   http://www.linux-arm.org/git?p=linux-pb.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/lkml/utilclamp_v7


Newcomer's Short Abstract
=========================

The Linux scheduler tracks a "utilization" signal for each scheduling entity
(SE), e.g. tasks, to know how much CPU time they use. This signal allows the
scheduler to know how "big" a task is and, in principle, it can support
advanced task placement strategies by selecting the best CPU to run a task.
Some of these strategies are represented by the Energy Aware Scheduler [3].

When the schedutil cpufreq governor is in use, the utilization signal allows
the Linux scheduler to also drive frequency selection. The CPU utilization
signal, which represents the aggregated utilization of tasks scheduled on that
CPU, is used to select the frequency which best fits the workload generated by
the tasks.

The current translation of utilization values into a frequency selection is
simple: we go to max for RT tasks or to the minimum frequency which can
accommodate the utilization of DL+FAIR tasks.
However, utilisation values by themselves cannot convey the desired
power/performance behaviours of each task as intended by user-space.
As such they are not ideally suited for task placement decisions.

Task placement and frequency selection policies in the kernel can be improved
by taking into consideration hints coming from authorised user-space elements,
like for example the Android middleware or more generally any "System
Management Software" (SMS) framework.

Utilization clamping is a mechanism which allows to "clamp" (i.e. filter) the
utilization generated by RT and FAIR tasks within a range defined by user-space.
The clamped utilization value can then be used, for example, to enforce a
minimum and/or maximum frequency depending on which tasks are active on a CPU.

The main use-cases for utilization clamping are:

 - boosting: better interactive response for small tasks which
   are affecting the user experience.

   Consider for example the case of a small control thread for an external
   accelerator (e.g. GPU, DSP, other devices). Here, from the task utilization
   the scheduler does not have a complete view of what the task's requirements
   are and, if it's a small utilization task, it keeps selecting a more energy
   efficient CPU, with smaller capacity and lower frequency, thus negatively
   impacting the overall time required to complete task activations.

 - capping: increase energy efficiency for background tasks not affecting the
   user experience.

   Since running on a lower capacity CPU at a lower frequency is more energy
   efficient, when the completion time is not a main goal, then capping the
   utilization considered for certain (maybe big) tasks can have positive
   effects, both on energy consumption and thermal headroom.
   This feature allows also to make RT tasks more energy friendly on mobile
   systems where running them on high capacity CPUs and at the maximum
   frequency is not required.

>From these two use-cases, it's worth noticing that frequency selection
biasing, introduced by patches 9 and 10 of this series, is just one possible
usage of utilization clamping. Another compelling extension of utilization
clamping is in helping the scheduler in macking tasks placement decisions.

Utilization is (also) a task specific property the scheduler uses to know
how much CPU bandwidth a task requires, at least as long as there is idle time.
Thus, the utilization clamp values, defined either per-task or per-task_group,
can represent tasks to the scheduler as being bigger (or smaller) than what
they actually are.

Utilization clamping thus enables interesting additional optimizations, for
example on asymmetric capacity systems like Arm big.LITTLE and DynamIQ CPUs,
where:

 - boosting: try to run small/foreground tasks on higher-capacity CPUs to
   complete them faster despite being less energy efficient.

 - capping: try to run big/background tasks on low-capacity CPUs to save power
   and thermal headroom for more important tasks

This series does not present this additional usage of utilization clamping but
it's an integral part of the EAS feature set, where [1] is one of its main
components.

Android kernels use SchedTune, a solution similar to utilization clamping, to
bias both 'frequency selection' and 'task placement'. This series provides the
foundation to add similar features to mainline while focusing, for the
time being, just on schedutil integration.

Yes and we really want to avoid that. The VDSO implementations are
pointlessly different accross the architectures and there is effort on the
way to consolidate them:

  https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190115135539.24762-1-vincenzo.frascino@arm.com

I talked to Vincenzo earlier this week and he's working on a new version of
that. The timens stuff wants to go on top of the consolidation otherwise we
end up with another set of pointlessly different and differently broken
VDSO variants.

And this needs to be a special variant of
timespec64-add_safe(). timespec64_add_safe() is not sufficient, because it
assumes that both values are positive, which is not the case here..

In timer_set() implementations you move the timespec_valid() check after
the add. That's wrong because you really want to check the input value from
user space.

Assume that the caller supplied value is valid and the adjustment brings it
out of range then how should the caller understand why it it rejected?

So timespec64_add_namespace() must check for under and overflow. But doing
this with timespecs is a pain. I rather suggest to rework the whole thing
so hrtimer_nanosleep() takes a ktime_t expiry value and move the conversion
to the call sites. Then the whole offset magic becomes:

   expires = timespec64_to_ktime(rqtp);

   if (abstime)
   	expires = timens_to_host_mono(expires);

and that function can nicely do the underflow and overflow detection and
cap the values to 0 on underflow and KTIME_MAX on overflow.

Hmm?

Thanks,
