Move free_module_param_attrs() into the CONFIG_MODULES section, since
it's only used inside there. Thus avoiding the warning

There's a small race/chance that, while hrtimers are enabled globally,
they're later not enabled when we're calling the hrtimer_interrupt() function,
which then BUG_ON()'s for that. This patch closes that race/gap.

As part of going idle, we already look at the time of the next timer event to determine
which C-state to select etc.
This patch adds functionality that causes the timers that are past their
soft expire time, to fire at this time, before we calculate the next wakeup
time. This functionality will thus avoid wakeups by running timers before
going idle rather than specially waking up for it.

this patch adds a _range version of hrtimer_start() so that range timers
can be created; the hrtimer_start() function is just a wrapper around this.
In addition, hrtimer_start_expires() will now preserve existing ranges.

We want to be able to control the default "rounding" that is used by
select() and poll() and friends. This is a per process property
(so that we can have a "nice" like program to start certain programs with
a looser or stricter rounding) that can be set/get via a prctl().
For this purpose, a field called "timer_slack_ns" is added to the task
struct. In addition, a field called "default_timer_slack"ns" is added
so that tasks easily can temporarily to a more/less accurate slack and then
back to the default.
The default value of the slack is set to 50 usec; this is significantly less
than 2.6.27's average select() and poll() timing error but still allows
the kernel to group timers somewhat to preserve power behavior. Applications
and admins can override this via the prctl()

this patch turns hrtimers into range timers; they have 2 expire points
1) the soft expire point
2) the hard expire point
the kernel will do it's regular best effort attempt to get the timer run
at the hard expire point. However, if some other time fires after the soft
expire point, the kernel now has the freedom to fire this timer at this point,
and thus grouping the events and preventing a power-expensive wakeup in the
future.

For the select() rework, it's important to be able to add timespec
structures in an overflow-safe manner.
This patch adds a timespec_add_safe() function for this which is similar in
operation to ktime_add_safe(), but works on a struct timespec.

This patch adds a schedule_hrtimeout() function, to be used by select() and

in most ways, but takes a timespec rather than jiffies.

Using |= for updating a value which might be updated on several cpus
concurrently will not always work since we need to make sure that the
update happens atomically.
To fix this just use a write if the called function returns an error
code on a cpu. We end up writing the error code of an arbitrary cpu
if multiple ones fail but that should be sufficient.

Convert stop_machine to a workqueue based approach. Instead of using kernel
threads for stop_machine we now use a an rt workqueue to synchronize all
cpus.
This has the advantage that all needed per cpu threads are already created
when stop_machine gets called. And therefore a call to stop_machine won't
fail anymore. This is needed for s390 which needs a mechanism to synchronize
all cpus without allocating any memory.
As Rusty pointed out free_module() needs a non-failing stop_machine interface
as well.
As a side effect the stop_machine code gets simplified.

create_rt_workqueue will create a real time prioritized workqueue.
This is needed for the conversion of stop_machine to a workqueue based
implementation.
This patch adds yet another parameter to __create_workqueue_key to tell
it that we want an rt workqueue.
However it looks like we rather should have something like "int type"
instead of singlethread, freezable and rt.

There are a lot of one-liner uses of __setup() in the kernel: they're
cumbersome and not queryable (definitely not settable) via /sys. Yet
it's ugly to simplify them to module_param(), because by default that
inserts a prefix of the module name (usually filename).
So, introduce a "core_param". The parameter gets no prefix, but
appears in /sys/module/kernel/parameters/ (if non-zero perms arg). I
thought about using the name "core", but that's more common than
"kernel". And if you create a module called "kernel", you will die
a horrible death.

Instead of insisting each new module_param sysfs entry is unique,
handle the case where it already exists (for builtin modules).
The current code assumes that all identical prefixes are together in
the section: true for normal uses, but not necessarily so if someone
overrides MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX. More importantly, it's not true with
the new "core_param()" code which uses "kernel" as a prefix.
This simplifies the caller for the builtin case, at a slight loss of
efficiency (we do the lookup every time to see if the directory
exists).

The kparam code tries to handle over-length parameter prefixes at
runtime. Not only would I bet this has never been tested, it's not
clear that truncating names is a good idea either.
So let's check at compile time. We need to move the #define to
moduleparam.h to do this, though.

Remove stop_machine during module load v2
module loading currently does a stop_machine on each module load to insert
the module into the global module lists. Especially on larger systems this
can be quite expensive.
It does that to handle concurrent lock lessmodule list readers
like kallsyms.
I don't think stop_machine() is actually needed to insert something
into a list though. There are no concurrent writers because the
module mutex is taken. And the RCU list functions know how to insert
a node into a list with the right memory ordering so that concurrent
readers don't go off into the wood.
So remove the stop_machine for the module list insert and just
do a list_add_rcu() instead.
Module removal will still do a stop_machine of course, it needs
that for other reasons.
v2: Revised readers based on Paul's comments. All readers that only
rely on disabled preemption need to be changed to list_for_each_rcu().
Done that. The others are ok because they have the modules mutex.
Also added a possible missing preempt disable for print_modules().
[cc Paul McKenney for review. It's not RCU, but quite similar.]

Linus' recent catch of stack overflow in load_module lead me to look
at the code. A couple of helpers to get a section address and get
objects from a section can help clean things up a little.
(And in case you're wondering, the stack size also dropped from 328 to
284 bytes).

commit fb02fbc14d17837b4b7b02dbb36142c16a7bf208 (NOHZ: restart tick
device from irq_enter())
solves the problem of stale jiffies when long running softirqs happen
in a long idle sleep period, but it has a major thinko in it:
When the interrupt which came in _is_ the timer interrupt which should
expire ts->sched_timer then we cancel and rearm the timer _before_ it
gets expired in hrtimer_interrupt() to the next period. That means the
call back function is not called. This game can go on for ever :(
Prevent this by making sure to only rearm the timer when the expiry
time is more than one tick_period away. Otherwise keep it running as
it is either already expired or will expiry at the right point to
update jiffies.

current rcu_barrier_bh() is like this:
void rcu_barrier_bh(void)
{
BUG_ON(in_interrupt());
/* Take cpucontrol mutex to protect against CPU hotplug */
mutex_lock(&rcu_barrier_mutex);
init_completion(&rcu_barrier_completion);
atomic_set(&rcu_barrier_cpu_count, 0);
/*
* The queueing of callbacks in all CPUs must be atomic with
* respect to RCU, otherwise one CPU may queue a callback,
* wait for a grace period, decrement barrier count and call
* complete(), while other CPUs have not yet queued anything.
* So, we need to make sure that grace periods cannot complete
* until all the callbacks are queued.
*/
rcu_read_lock();
on_each_cpu(rcu_barrier_func, (void *)RCU_BARRIER_BH, 1);
rcu_read_unlock();
wait_for_completion(&rcu_barrier_completion);
mutex_unlock(&rcu_barrier_mutex);
}
The inconsistency of the code and the comments show a bug here.
rcu_read_lock() cannot make sure that "grace periods for RCU_BH
cannot complete until all the callbacks are queued".
it only make sure that race periods for RCU cannot complete
until all the callbacks are queued.
so we must use rcu_read_lock_bh() for rcu_barrier_bh().
like this:
void rcu_barrier_bh(void)
{
......
rcu_read_lock_bh();
on_each_cpu(rcu_barrier_func, (void *)RCU_BARRIER_BH, 1);
rcu_read_unlock_bh();
......
}
and also rcu_barrier() rcu_barrier_sched() are implemented like this.
it will bring a lot of duplicate code. My patch uses another way to
fix this bug, please see the comment of my patch.
Thank Paul E. McKenney for he rewrote the comment.

David Miller reported that hrtick update overhead has tripled the
wakeup overhead on Sparc64.
That is too much - disable the HRTICK feature for now by default,
until a faster implementation is found.

Vatsa rightly points out that having the runqueue weight in the vruntime
calculations can cause unfairness in the face of task joins/leaves.
Suppose: dv = dt * rw / w
Then take 10 tasks t_n, each of similar weight. If the first will run 1
then its vruntime will increase by 10. Now, if the next 8 tasks leave after
having run their 1, then the last task will get a vruntime increase of 2
after having run 1.
Which will leave us with 2 tasks of equal weight and equal runtime, of which
one will not be scheduled for 8/2=4 units of time.
Ergo, we cannot do that and must use: dv = dt / w.
This means we cannot have a global vruntime based on effective priority, but
must instead go back to the vruntime per rq model we started out with.
This patch was lightly tested by doing starting while loops on each nice level
and observing their execution time, and a simple group scenario of 1:2:3 pinned
to a single cpu.

With use of ftrace Steven noticed that some RT tasks got rescheduled due
to sched_fair interaction.
What happens is that we reprogram the hrtick from enqueue/dequeue_fair_task()
because that can change nr_running, and thus a current tasks ideal runtime.
However, its possible the current task isn't a fair_sched_class task, and thus
doesn't have a hrtick set to change.
Fix this by wrapping those hrtick_start_fair() calls in a hrtick_update()
function, which will check for the right conditions.

I noticed that tg_shares_up() unconditionally takes rq-locks for all cpus
in the sched_domain. This hurts.
We need the rq-locks whenever we change the weight of the per-cpu group sched
entities. To allevate this a little, only change the weight when the new
weight is at least shares_thresh away from the old value.
This avoids the rq-lock for the top level entries, since those will never
be re-weighted, and fuzzes the lower level entries a little to gain performance
in semi-stable situations.

Greetings,
103638d added a bit of avoidable overhead to the fast-path.
Use sysctl_sched_min_granularity instead of sched_slice() to restrict buddy wakeups.

If NR_CPUS isn't a multiple of 32, we get a truncated string of sched
domains by catting /proc/schedstat. This is caused by the wrong mask_len.
This patch fixes it.
