They can do without this\npresent cpu_exclusive based mechanism while we develop an alternative.\n\nThere is a real risk, to the best of my understanding, of users\naccidentally setting up a partitioned scheduler domains, inhibiting desired\nload balancing across all their CPUs, due to the nonobvious (from the\ncpuset perspective) side affects of the cpu_exclusive flag.\n\nFurthermore, since there was no way on a running system to see what one was\ndoing with sched domains, this change will be invisible to any using code.\nUnless they have real insight to the scheduler load balancing choices, they\nwill be unable to detect that this change has been made in the kernel\u0027s\nbehaviour.\n\nInitial discussion on lkml of this patch has generated much comment. My\n(probably controversial) take on that discussion is that it has reached a\nrough concensus that the current cpuset cpu_exclusive mechanism for\ndefining sched domains is borked. There is no concensus on the\nreplacement. But since we can remove this mechanism, and since its\ncontinued presence risks causing unwanted partitioning of the schedulers\nload balancing, we should remove it while we can, as we proceed to work the\nreplacement scheduler domain mechanisms.\n\nSigned-off-by: Paul Jackson \u003cpj@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nCc: Nick Piggin \u003cnickpiggin@yahoo.com.au\u003e\nCc: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@engr.sgi.com\u003e\nCc: Dinakar Guniguntala \u003cdino@in.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Thomas Gleixner \u003ctglx@linutronix.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "c92ff1bde06f69d59b40f3194016aee51cc5da55", "tree": "d365a7723a05a073ed715c6f4e99363e27516d04", "parents": [ "c0bc9875b701c588e448302d41181995c21e8040" ], "author": { "name": "Martin Schwidefsky", "email": "schwidefsky@de.ibm.com", "time": "Tue Oct 16 01:24:43 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Tue Oct 16 09:42:53 2007 -0700" }, "message": "move mm_struct and vm_area_struct\n\nMove the definitions of struct mm_struct and struct vma_area_struct to\ninclude/mm_types.h.

Upon uid change for a task, it is made to \nmove to the corresponding scheduling group.\n\nA /proc tunable (/proc/root_user_share) is also provided to tune root\nuser\u0027s quota of cpu bandwidth.\n\nSigned-off-by: Srivatsa Vaddagiri \u003cvatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Dhaval Giani \u003cdhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nReviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner \u003ctglx@linutronix.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "9b5b77512dce239fa168183fa71896712232e95a", "tree": "2a95cf9151b4b6bd745236858f5b73b639dbc0d9", "parents": [ "75c28ace9f2b2f403674e045939424a77c95b47c" ], "author": { "name": "Srivatsa Vaddagiri", "email": "vatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com", "time": "Mon Oct 15 17:00:09 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Mon Oct 15 17:00:09 2007 +0200" }, "message": "sched: clean up code under CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED\n\nWith the view of supporting user-id based fair scheduling (and not just\ncontainer-based fair scheduling), this patch renames several functions\nand makes them independent of whether they are being used for container\nor user-id based fair scheduling.\n\nAlso fix a problem reported by KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki (wrt allocating\nless-sized array for tg-\u003ecfs_rq[] and tf-\u003ese[]).\n\nSigned-off-by: Srivatsa Vaddagiri \u003cvatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Dhaval Giani \u003cdhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nReviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner \u003ctglx@linutronix.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "83b699ed20f5218580a1b7042064082e2e05f8c5", "tree": "544c42283f41065f22e96e02af0badb7ed70a371", "parents": [ "edcb60a309769a5f6e7c9e76d7c98b34d1757448" ], "author": { "name": "Srivatsa Vaddagiri", "email": "vatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com", "time": "Mon Oct 15 17:00:08 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Mon Oct 15 17:00:08 2007 +0200" }, "message": "sched: revert recent removal of set_curr_task()\n\nRevert removal of set_curr_task.\nUse put_prev_task/set_curr_task when changing groups/policies\n\nSigned-off-by: Srivatsa Vaddagiri \u003c vatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Dhaval Giani \u003cdhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f6b53205e17c8ca481c69ed579a35a650a4b481a", "tree": "d7820281757e3a2c7cfff7e38275261dcd077eab", "parents": [ "4530d7ab0fb8d5056b68c376949e2d5c4db7817e" ], "author": { "name": "Dmitry Adamushko", "email": "dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com", "time": "Mon Oct 15 17:00:08 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Mon Oct 15 17:00:08 2007 +0200" }, "message": "sched: rework enqueue/dequeue_entity() to get rid of set_curr_task()\n\nrework enqueue/dequeue_entity() to get rid of \nsched_class::set_curr_task().

The variables best_prio and best_prio_seen (inherited from the old\nmove_tasks()) were only required to handle problems caused by the\nactive/expired arrays, the order in which they were processed and the\npossibility that the task with the highest priority could be on either.\n These issues are no longer present and the extra overhead associated\nwith their use is unnecessary (and possibly wrong).\n\n2. In the absence of CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED being set, the same\nthis_best_prio variable needs to be used by all scheduling classes or\nthere is a risk of moving too much load. E.g. if the highest priority\ntask on this at the beginning is a fairly low priority task and the rt\nclass migrates a task (during its turn) then that moved task becomes the\nnew highest priority task on this_rq but when the sched_fair class\ninitializes its copy of this_best_prio it will get the priority of the\noriginal highest priority task as, due to the run queue locks being\nheld, the reschedule triggered by pull_task() will not have taken place.\n This could result in inappropriate overriding of skip_for_load and\nexcessive load being moved.\n\nThe attached patch addresses these problems by deleting all reference to\nbest_prio and best_prio_seen and making this_best_prio a reference\nparameter to the various functions involved.\n\nload_balance_fair() has also been modified so that this_best_prio is\nonly reset (in the loop) if CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is set.

However, the new modular\ndesign of the new CFS scheduler allows a simpler solution to be adopted\nand this patch addresses that solution by:\n\n1. adding a new function, move_one_task(), to be used by\nactive_load_balance(); and\n2. making move_tasks() a single purpose function that tries to move a\nspecified weighted load and returns 1 for success and 0 for failure.\n\nOne of the consequences of these changes is that neither move_one_task()\nor the new move_tasks() care how many tasks sched_class.load_balance()\nmoves and this enables its interface to be simplified by returning the\namount of load moved as its result and removing the load_moved pointer\nfrom the argument list. This helps simplify the new move_tasks() and\nslightly reduces the amount of work done in each of\nsched_class.load_balance()\u0027s implementations.\n\nFurther simplification, e.g. changes to balance_tasks(), are possible\nbut (slightly) complicated by the special needs of load_balance_fair()\nso I\u0027ve left them to a later patch (if this one gets accepted).\n\nNB Since move_tasks() gets called with two run queue locks held even\nsmall reductions in overhead are worthwhile.\n\n[ mingo@elte.hu ]\n\nthis change also reduces code size nicely:\n\n text data bss dec hex filename\n 39216 3618 24 42858 a76a sched.o.before\n 39173 3618 24 42815 a73f sched.o.after\n\nSigned-off-by: Peter Williams \u003cpwil3058@bigpond.net.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "94c18227d1e3f02de5b345bd3cd5c960214dc9c8", "tree": "c2cb18bf1deb097f61cea3ebec23bbd844e1e072", "parents": [ "6cfb0d5d06bea2b8791f32145eae539d524e5f6c" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Aug 02 17:41:40 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Aug 02 17:41:40 2007 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] sched: reduce task_struct size\n\nmore task_struct size reduction, by moving the debugging/instrumentation\nfields to under CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS:\n\n (i386, nodebug):\n\n size\n ----\n pre-CFS 1328\n CFS 1472\n CFS+patch 1376\n\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "cad60d93e18ba52b6f069b2edb031c89bf603b07", "tree": "dfe74c165e7607c233d223614ef400163c6ba44c", "parents": [ "4e6f96f313561d86d248edf0eaff2336d8217e1b" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Aug 02 17:41:40 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Aug 02 17:41:40 2007 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] sched: -\u003etask_new cleanup\n\nmake sched_class.task_new \u003d\u003d NULL a \u0027default method\u0027, this\nallows the removal of task_rt_new.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "362a7016637648c6aefc98b706298baedfaa1543", "tree": "cb3f434fb71d29b247686b6dcfc76864cea4f57a", "parents": [ "1ed4395035a6791ebbbf618429a58ab9c207cc83" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Aug 02 17:41:40 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Aug 02 17:41:40 2007 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] sched: remove cache_hot_time\n\nremove the last unused remains of cache_hot_time.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "d02c7a8cf208eb80a3ccbff40a6bebe8902af35a", "tree": "b6e2a0393bf917e5e04be955d6c6d5384caa4dfa", "parents": [ "b762f3ffb797c1281a38a1c82194534055fba5ec" ], "author": { "name": "Con Kolivas", "email": "kernel@kolivas.org", "time": "Thu Jul 26 13:40:43 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Jul 26 13:40:43 2007 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] sched: add above_background_load() function\n\nAdd an above_background_load() function which can be used by other\nsubsystems to detect if there is anything besides niced tasks running.\n\nPlace it in sched.h to allow it to be compiled out if not used.\n\nUnused for now, but it is a useful hint to the IO scheduler and to\nswap-prefetch.\n\nSigned-off-by: Con Kolivas \u003ckernel@kolivas.org\u003e\nCc: Peter Williams \u003cpwil3058@bigpond.net.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "e107be36efb2a233833e8c9899039a370e4b2318", "tree": "655955aa81aefeff441c412adaafe9b51a00ff56", "parents": [ "b47e8608a08766ef8121cd747d3aaf6c3dc22649" ], "author": { "name": "Avi Kivity", "email": "avi@qumranet.com", "time": "Thu Jul 26 13:40:43 2007 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Jul 26 13:40:43 2007 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] sched: arch preempt notifier mechanism\n\nThis adds a general mechanism whereby a task can request the scheduler to\nnotify it whenever it is preempted or scheduled back in.
