sched: provide per cpu-cgroup option to notify on migrations

On systems where CPUs may run asynchronously, task migrations
between CPUs running at grossly different speeds can cause
problems.

This change provides a mechanism to notify a subsystem
in the kernel if a task in a particular cgroup migrates to a
different CPU. Other subsystems (such as cpufreq) may then
register for this notifier to take appropriate action when
such a task is migrated.

The cgroup attribute to set for this behavior is
"notify_on_migrate" .

sched: remove migration notification from RT class

Commit 88a7e37d265 (sched: provide per cpu-cgroup option to
notify on migrations) added a notifier call when a task is moved
to a different CPU. Unfortunately the two call sites in the RT
sched class where this occurs happens with a runqueue lock held.
This can result in a deadlock if the notifier call attempts to do
something like wake up a task.

Fortunately the benefit of 88a7e37d265 comes mainly from notifying
on migration of non-RT tasks, so we can simply ignore the movements
of RT tasks.

sched: Reset rq->next_interval before going idle

next_balance, the point in jiffy time scale when a cpu will next load
balance, could have been calculated when the cpu was busy. A busy cpu
will apply its sched domain's busy_factor (usually > 1) in computing
next_balance for that sched domain, which causes the (busy) cpu to load
balance less frequently in its sched domains. However when the same cpu
is going idle, its next_balance needs to be reset without consideration
of busy_factor. Failure to do so would not trigger nohz idle balancer on
that cpu for unnecessarily long time (introducing additional scheduling
latencies for tasks). Fix bug in scheduler which aims to reset
next_balance before a cpu goes idle (as per existing comment) but is
clearly not doing so.

hrtimer: Prevent hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram race

hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram contains a race which could result in
timer.base switch during unlock/lock sequence.

hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram is releasing the lock protecting the timer
base for calling raise_softirq_irqsoff() due to a lock ordering issue
versus rq->lock.

If during that time another CPU calls __hrtimer_start_range_ns() on
the same hrtimer, the timer base might switch, before the current CPU
can lock base->lock again and therefor the unlock_timer_base() call
will unlock the wrong lock.

sched: Fix SCHED_HRTICK bug leading to late preemption of tasks

SCHED_HRTICK feature is useful to preempt SCHED_FAIR tasks on-the-dot
(just when they would have exceeded their ideal_runtime). It makes use
of a a per-cpu hrtimer resource and hence alarming that hrtimer should
be based on total SCHED_FAIR tasks a cpu has across its various cfs_rqs,
rather than being based on number of tasks in a particular cfs_rq (as
implemented currently). As a result, with current code, its possible for
a running task (which is the sole task in its cfs_rq) to be preempted
much after its ideal_runtime has elapsed, resulting in increased latency
for tasks in other cfs_rq on same cpu.

Fix this by alarming sched hrtimer based on total number of SCHED_FAIR
tasks a CPU has across its various cfs_rqs.

sched: fix reference to wrong cfs_rq

Commit 7db16c8c (sched: Fix SCHED_HRTICK bug leading to late preemption
of tasks) introduced a bug in sched_slice() calculation by using wrong
cfs_rq for tasks. rq->cfs was incorrectly used as task's cfs_rq, rather
than the correct one to which they belonged.

Fix the bug by using correct cfs_rq for tasks.

sched: re-calculate a cpu's next_balance point upon sched domain changes

Commit 55ddeb0f (sched: Reset rq->next_interval before going idle) reset
a cpu's rq->next_balance when pulled_task = 0, which will be true when
the cpu failed to pull any task, causing it go idle. However that patch
relied on next_balance being calculated as a result of traversing cpu's
sched domain hierarchy.

A cpu that is the only online cpu will however not be attached to any
sched domain hierarchy. When such a cpu calls into idle_balance(), we
will end up initializing next_balance to be 1sec away! Such a CPU will
defer load balance check for another 1sec, even though we may bring up
more cpus in the meantime requiring it to check for load imbalance more
frequently. This could then lead to increased scheduling latency for
some tasks.

This patch results in a cpu's next_balance being re-calculated when its
attaching to a new sched domain hierarchy.  This should let cpus call
load balance checks at the right time we expect them to!

sched: Convert BUG_ON()s in try_to_wake_up_local() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s

try_to_wake_up_local() should only be invoked to wake up another
task in the same runqueue and BUG_ON()s are used to enforce the
rule. Missing try_to_wake_up_local() can stall workqueue
execution but such stalls are likely to be finite either by
another work item being queued or the one blocked getting
unblocked.  There's no reason to trigger BUG while holding rq
lock crashing the whole system.

Convert BUG_ON()s in try_to_wake_up_local() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s.

sched: change WARN_ON_ONCE to WARN_ON in try_to_wake_up_local()

The WARN_ON_ONCE() calls at the beginning of try_to_wake_up_local()
were recently converted from BUG_ON() calls. If these hit it indicates
something is wrong and that may contribute to other system instability.
To eliminate the risk of an instance of one of these errors going
un-noticed because there was an earlier instance that occured long ago,
change to WARN_ON(). If there ever is a flood of these there are bigger
problems.

timers: Fix endless looping between cascade() and internal_add_timer()

Adding two (or more) timers with large values for "expires" (they have
to reside within tv5 in the same list) leads to endless looping
between cascade() and internal_add_timer() in case CONFIG_BASE_SMALL
is one and jiffies are crossing the value 1 << 18. The bug was
introduced between 2.6.11 and 2.6.12 (and survived for quite some
time).

This patch ensures that when cascade() is called timers within tv5 are
not added endlessly to their own list again, instead they are added to
the next lower tv level tv4 (as expected).

hrtimer: Don't reinitialize a cpu_base's lock on CPU_UP

The current code makes the assumption that a cpu_base lock cannot
be held if a CPU is offline, which is tragically wrong.

If a hrtimer is not queued, then it will not be migrated by
migrate_hrtimers() when a CPU is offlined. Therefore, the
hrtimer's cpu_base may still point to a CPU which has
subsequently gone offline if the timer wasn't enqueued at the
time the CPU went down.

Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but a cpu_base's lock is
blindly reinitialized each time a CPU is brought up. If a CPU is
brought online during the period that another thread is
performing a hrtimer operation on a stale hrtimer, then the lock
will be reinitialized under its feet, and a SPIN_BUG() like the
following will be observed:
