sched: change update_sg_lb_stats to h_nr_running

Date	Sun, 18 Aug 2013 16:25:19 +0800

Since update_sg_lb_stats is used to calculate sched_group load
difference of cfs type task, it should use h_nr_running instead of
nr_running of rq.

sched: change find_busiest_queue to h_nr_running

Date	Sun, 18 Aug 2013 16:25:20 +0800

Since find_busiest_queue try to avoid do load balance for runqueue
which has only one cfs task and its load is above the imbalance
value calculated, we should use h_nr_running of cfs instead of
nr_running of rq.

sched: change active_load_balance_cpu_stop to use h_nr_running

Date	Sun, 18 Aug 2013 16:25:21 +0800

We should only avoid do the active load balance when there is no
cfs type task. If just use rq->nr_running, it is possible for the
source cpu has multiple rt task, while zero cfs task, so that it
would confuse the active load balance function that try to move,
but find no task it could move.

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.

sched: Unthrottle rt runqueues in __disable_runtime()

migrate_tasks() uses _pick_next_task_rt() to get tasks from the
real-time runqueues to be migrated. When rt_rq is throttled
_pick_next_task_rt() won't return anything, in which case
migrate_tasks() can't move all threads over and gets stuck in an
infinite loop.

Instead unthrottle rt runqueues before migrating tasks.

Additionally: move unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs() to rq_offline_fair()

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.

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.
