| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | del_timer_sync() calls debug_object_assert_init() to assert that a timer has been initialized before calling lock_timer_base(). lock_timer_base() would spin forever on a NULL(uninit-ed) base. The check is added to del_timer() to prevent silent failure, even though it would not get stuck in an infinite loop.

* timers: Consider slack value in mod_timer()Sebastian Andrzej Siewior2011-06-031-8/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is an optimization which does not update the timer if the timer was pending and the expiration time was unchanged. Since commit 3bbb9ec9 ("timers: Introduce the concept of timer slack for legacy timers") this optimization is no longer applied for timers where the expiration time got extended due to the slack value. So we need to check again after the expiration time might have been updated.

| * timer: Permit statically-declared work with deferrable timersPhil Carmody2010-10-211-14/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, you have to just define a delayed_work uninitialised, and then initialise it before first use. That's a tad clumsy. At risk of playing mind-games with the compiler, fooling it into doing pointer arithmetic with compile-time-constants, this lets clients properly initialise delayed work with deferrable timers statically.

* | nohz: Fix get_next_timer_interrupt() vs cpu hotplugHeiko Carstens2010-12-081-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a bug as seen on 2.6.32 based kernels where timers got enqueued on offline cpus. If a cpu goes offline it might still have pending timers. These will be migrated during CPU_DEAD handling after the cpu is offline. However while the cpu is going offline it will schedule the idle task which will then call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call get_next_timer_intterupt() to figure out if the tick of the cpu can be stopped or not. If it turns out that the next tick is just one jiffy off (delta_jiffies == 1) tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() incorrectly assumes that the tick should not stop and takes an early exit and thus it won't update the load balancer cpu. Just afterwards the cpu will be killed and the load balancer cpu could be the offline cpu. On 2.6.32 based kernel get_nohz_load_balancer() gets called to decide on which cpu a timer should be enqueued (see __mod_timer()). Which leads to the possibility that timers get enqueued on an offline cpu. These will never expire and can cause a system hang. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. The easiest and probably safest fix seems to be to let get_next_timer_interrupt() just lie and let it say there isn't any pending timer if the current cpu is offline. I also thought of moving migrate_[hr]timers() from CPU_DEAD to CPU_DYING, but seeing that there already have been fixes at least in the hrtimer code in this area I'm afraid that this could add new subtle bugs.

* | sched: Cure more NO_HZ load average woesPeter Zijlstra2010-12-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a long-running regression that proved difficult to fix and which is hitting certain people and is rather annoying in its effects. Damien reported that after 74f5187ac8 (sched: Cure load average vs NO_HZ woes) his load average is unnaturally high, he also noted that even with that patch reverted the load avgerage numbers are not correct. The problem is that the previous patch only solved half the NO_HZ problem, it addressed the part of going into NO_HZ mode, not of comming out of NO_HZ mode. This patch implements that missing half. When comming out of NO_HZ mode there are two important things to take care of: - Folding the pending idle delta into the global active count. - Correctly aging the averages for the idle-duration. So with this patch the NO_HZ interaction should be complete and behaviour between CONFIG_NO_HZ=[yn] should be equivalent. Furthermore, this patch slightly changes the load average computation by adding a rounding term to the fixed point multiplication.

* | irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacksPeter Zijlstra2010-10-181-2/+5
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

Since an easy interface to hrtimers could lead to an undesired proliferation of interrupts, we provide only a "range" API, forcing the caller to think about an acceptable tolerance on both ends and hopefully avoiding introducing another interrupt. INTRO As discussed here ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/3/250 ), msleep(1) is not precise enough for many drivers (yes, sleep precision is an unfair notion, but consistently sleeping for ~an order of magnitude greater than requested is worth fixing). This patch adds a usleep API so that udelay does not have to be used. Obviously not every udelay can be replaced (those in atomic contexts or being used for simple bitbanging come to mind), but there are many, many examples of mydriver_write(...) /* Wait for hardware to latch */ udelay(100) in various drivers where a busy-wait loop is neither beneficial nor necessary, but msleep simply does not provide enough precision and people are using a busy-wait loop instead. CONCERNS FROM THE RFC Why is udelay a problem / necessary? Most callers of udelay are in device/ driver initialization code, which is serial... As I see it, there is only benefit to sleeping over a delay; the notion of "refactoring" areas that use udelay was presented, but I see usleep as the refactoring. Consider i2c, if the bus is busy, you need to wait a bit (say 100us) before trying again, your current options are: * udelay(100) * msleep(1) <-- As noted above, actually as high as ~20ms on some platforms, so not really an option * Manually set up an hrtimer to try again in 100us (which is what usleep does anyway...) People choose the udelay route because it is EASY; we need to provide a better easy route. Device / driver / boot code is *currently* serial, but every few months someone makes noise about parallelizing boot, and IMHO, a little forward-thinking now is one less thing to worry about if/when that ever happens udelay's could be preempted Sure, but if udelay plans on looping 1000 times, and it gets preempted on loop 200, whenever it's scheduled again, it is going to do the next 800 loops. Is the interruptible case needed? Probably not, but I see usleep as a very logical parallel to msleep, so it made sense to include the "full" API. Processors are getting faster (albeit not as quickly as they are becoming more parallel), so if someone wanted to be interruptible for a few usecs, why not let them? If this is a contentious point, I'm happy to remove it. OTHER THOUGHTS I believe there is also value in exposing the usleep_range option; it gives the scheduler a lot more flexibility and allows the programmer to express his intent much more clearly; it's something I would hope future driver writers will take advantage of. To get the results in the NUMBERS section below, I literally s/udelay/usleep the kernel tree; I had to go in and undo the changes to the USB drivers, but everything else booted successfully; I find that extremely telling in and of itself -- many people are using a delay API where a sleep will suit them just fine. SOME ATTEMPTS AT NUMBERS It turns out that calculating quantifiable benefit on this is challenging, so instead I will simply present the current state of things, and I hope this to be sufficient: How many udelay calls are there in 2.6.35-rc5? udealy(ARG) >= | COUNT 1000 | 319 500 | 414 100 | 1146 20 | 1832 I am working on Android, so that is my focus for this. The following table is a modified usleep that simply printk's the amount of time requested to sleep; these tests were run on a kernel with udelay >= 20 --> usleep "boot" is power-on to lock screen "power collapse" is when the power button is pushed and the device suspends "resume" is when the power button is pushed and the lock screen is displayed (no touchscreen events or anything, just turning on the display) "use device" is from the unlock swipe to clicking around a bit; there is no sd card in this phone, so fail loading music, video, camera ACTION | TOTAL NUMBER OF USLEEP CALLS | NET TIME (us) boot | 22 | 1250 power-collapse | 9 | 1200 resume | 5 | 500 use device | 59 | 7700 The most interesting category to me is the "use device" field; 7700us of busy-wait time that could be put towards better responsiveness, or at the least less power usage.

There is still the concept of idle load balancer (performing the load balancing on behalf of all the idle cpu's in the system). Busy CPU kicks the nohz balancer when any of the nohz CPUs need idle load balancing. The kickee CPU does the idle load balancing on behalf of all idle CPUs instead of the normal idle balance. This addresses the below two problems with the current nohz ilb logic: * the idle load balancer continued to have periodic ticks during idle and wokeup frequently, even though it did not have any rebalancing to do on behalf of any of the idle CPUs. * On x86 and CPUs that have APIC timer stoppage on idle CPUs, this periodic wakeup can result in a periodic additional interrupt on a CPU doing the timer broadcast. Also currently we are migrating the unpinned timers from an idle to the cpu doing idle load balancing (when all the cpus in the system are idle, there is no idle load balancing cpu and timers get added to the same idle cpu where the request was made. So the existing optimization works only on semi idle system). And In semi idle system, we no longer have periodic ticks on the idle load balancer CPU. Using that cpu will add more delays to the timers than intended (as that cpu's timer base may not be uptodate wrt jiffies etc). This was causing mysterious slowdowns during boot etc. For now, in the semi idle case, use the nearest busy cpu for migrating timers from an idle cpu. This is good for power-savings anyway.

Linus noticed that jiffies is volatile so it is reloaded twice, which generates bad code. But its worse. This can defeat the time_after() check if jiffies are incremented between time_after() and the slack calculation. Fix it by reading jiffies into a local variable, which prevents the compiler from loading it twice. While at it make the > -1 check into >= 0 which is easier to read.

Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While HR timers have had the concept of timer slack for quite some time now, the legacy timers lacked this concept, and had to make do with round_jiffies() and friends. Timer slack is important for power management; grouping timers reduces the number of wakeups which in turn reduces power consumption. This patch introduces timer slack to the legacy timers using the following pieces: * A slack field in the timer struct * An api (set_timer_slack) that callers can use to set explicit timer slack * A default slack of 0.4% of the requested delay for callers that do not set any explicit slack * Rounding code that is part of mod_timer() that tries to group timers around jiffies values every 'power of two' (so quick timers will group around every 2, but longer timers will group around every 4, 8, 16, 32 etc) Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: johnstul@us.ibm.com Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
