2011-01-31watchdog: Fix broken nowatchdog logicMarcin Slusarz
Passing nowatchdog to kernel disables 2 things: creation of watchdog threads AND initialization of percpu watchdog_hrtimer. As hrtimers are initialized only at boot it's not possible to enable watchdog later - for me all watchdog threads started to eat 100% of CPU time, but they could just crash. Additionally, even if these threads would start properly, watchdog_disable_all_cpus was guarded by no_watchdog check, so you couldn't disable watchdog. To fix this, remove no_watchdog variable and use already existing watchdog_enabled variable.

2011-01-27rtmutex: Simplify PI algorithm and make highest prio task get lockLai Jiangshan
In current rtmutex, the pending owner may be boosted by the tasks in the rtmutex's waitlist when the pending owner is deboosted or a task in the waitlist is boosted. This boosting is unrelated, because the pending owner does not really take the rtmutex. It is not reasonable. Example. time1: A(high prio) onwers the rtmutex. B(mid prio) and C (low prio) in the waitlist. time2 A release the lock, B becomes the pending owner A(or other high prio task) continues to run. B's prio is lower than A, so B is just queued at the runqueue. time3 A or other high prio task sleeps, but we have passed some time The B and C's prio are changed in the period (time2 ~ time3) due to boosting or deboosting. Now C has the priority higher than B. ***Is it reasonable that C has to boost B and help B to get the rtmutex? NO!! I think, it is unrelated/unneed boosting before B really owns the rtmutex. We should give C a chance to beat B and win the rtmutex. This is the motivation of this patch. This patch *ensures* only the top waiter or higher priority task can take the lock. How? 1) we don't dequeue the top waiter when unlock, if the top waiter is changed, the old top waiter will fail and go to sleep again. 2) when requiring lock, it will get the lock when the lock is not taken and: there is no waiter OR higher priority than waiters OR it is top waiter. 3) In any time, the top waiter is changed, the top waiter will be woken up. The algorithm is much simpler than before, no pending owner, no boosting for pending owner. Other advantage of this patch: 1) The states of a rtmutex are reduced a half, easier to read the code. 2) the codes become shorter. 3) top waiter is not dequeued until it really take the lock: they will retain FIFO when it is stolen. Not advantage nor disadvantage 1) Even we may wakeup multiple waiters(any time when top waiter changed), we hardly cause "thundering herd", the number of wokenup task is likely 1 or very little. 2) two APIs are changed. rt_mutex_owner() will not return pending owner, it will return NULL when the top waiter is going to take the lock. rt_mutex_next_owner() always return the top waiter. will not return NULL if we have waiters because the top waiter is not dequeued. I have fixed the code that use these APIs. need updated after this patch is accepted 1) Document/* 2) the testcase scripts/rt-tester/t4-l2-pi-deboost.tst Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4D3012D5.4060709@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When a task is taken out of the fair class we must ensure the vruntime is properly normalized because when we put it back in it will assume to be normalized.

CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING adds ns granularity irq time on each CPU. This info is already used in scheduler to do proper task chargeback (earlier patches). This patch retro-fits this ns granularity hardirq and softirq information to /proc/stat irq and softirq fields. The update is still done on timer tick, where we look at accumulated ns hardirq/softirq time and account the tick to user/system/irq/hardirq/guest accordingly. No new interface added. Earlier versions looked at adding this as new fields in some /proc files.

2011-01-26sched: Avoid expensive initial update_cfs_load()Paul Turner
Since cfs->{load_stamp,load_last} are zero-initalized the initial load update will consider the delta to be 'since the beginning of time'. This results in a lot of pointless divisions to bring this large period to be within the sysctl_sched_shares_window. Fix this by initializing load_stamp to be 1 at cfs_rq initialization, this allows for an initial load_stamp > load_last which then lets standard idle truncation proceed. We avoid spinning (and slightly improve consistency) by fixing delta to be [period - 1] in this path resulting in a slightly more predictable shares ramp. (Previously the amount of idle time preserved by the overflow would range between [period/2,period-1].)

2011-01-26sched: Simplify update_cfs_shares parametersPaul Turner
Re-visiting this: Since update_cfs_shares will now only ever re-weight an entity that is a relative parent of the current entity in enqueue_entity; we can safely issue the account_entity_enqueue relative to that cfs_rq and avoid the requirement for special handling of the enqueue case in update_cfs_shares.

2011-01-26sched: Use rq->clock_task instead of rq->clock for correctly maintaining ↵Paul Turner
load averages The delta in clock_task is a more fair attribution of how much time a tg has been contributing load to the current cpu. While not really important it also means we're more in sync (by magnitude) with respect to periodic updates (since __update_curr deltas are clock_task based).

2011-01-26sched: Fix/remove redundant cfs_rq checksPaul Turner
Since updates are against an entity's queuing cfs_rq it's not possible to enter update_cfs_{shares,load} with a NULL cfs_rq. (Indeed, update_cfs_load would crash prior to the check if we did anyway since we load is examined during the initializers). Also, in the update_cfs_load case there's no point in maintaining averages for rq->cfs_rq since we don't perform shares distribution at that level -- NULL check is replaced accordingly. Thanks to Dan Carpenter for pointing out the deference before NULL check.

2011-01-26sched: Fix sign under-flows in wake_affinePaul Turner
While care is taken around the zero-point in effective_load to not exceed the instantaneous rq->weight, it's still possible (e.g. using wake_idx != 0) for (load + effective_load) to underflow. In this case the comparing the unsigned values can result in incorrect balanced decisions.

2011-01-26console: rename acquire/release_console_sem() to console_lock/unlock()Torben Hohn
The -rt patches change the console_semaphore to console_mutex. As a result, a quite large chunk of the patches changes all acquire/release_console_sem() to acquire/release_console_mutex() This commit makes things use more neutral function names which dont make implications about the underlying lock. The only real change is the return value of console_trylock which is inverted from try_acquire_console_sem() This patch also paves the way to switching console_sem from a semaphore to a mutex.
