cputime: Rename thread_group_times to thread_group_cputime_adjusted

We have thread_group_cputime() and thread_group_times(). The naming
doesn't provide enough information about the difference between
these two APIs.

To lower the confusion, rename thread_group_times() to
thread_group_cputime_adjusted(). This name better suggests that
it's a version of thread_group_cputime() that does some stabilization
on the raw cputime values. ie here: scale on top of CFS runtime
stats and bound lower value for monotonicity.

cputime: Consolidate cputime adjustment code

task_cputime_adjusted() and thread_group_cputime_adjusted()
essentially share the same code. They just don't use the same
source:

* The first function uses the cputime in the task struct and the
previous adjusted snapshot that ensures monotonicity.

* The second adds the cputime of all tasks in the group and the
previous adjusted snapshot of the whole group from the signal
structure.

Just consolidate the common code that does the adjustment. These
functions just need to fetch the values from the appropriate
source.

cputime: Librarize per nsecs resolution cputime definitions

The full dynticks cputime accounting that we'll soon introduce
will rely on sched_clock(). And its clock can have a per
nanosecond granularity.

To prepare for this, we need to have a cputime_t implementation
that has this precision.

ia64 virtual cputime accounting already uses that granularity
so all we need is to librarize its implementation in the asm
generic headers.

Also librarize the default per jiffy granularity cputime_t
as well so that we can easily pick either implementation
depending on the cputime accounting config we choose.

[neo: Remove unneeded ia64/nsec stuff. Just the jiffies.]

cputime: Move default nsecs_to_cputime() to jiffies based cputime file

If the architecture doesn't provide an implementation of
nsecs_to_cputime(), the cputime accounting core uses a
default one that converts the nanoseconds to jiffies. However
this only makes sense if we use the jiffies based cputime.

For now it doesn't matter much because this API is only
called on code that uses jiffies based cputime accounting.

But the code may evolve and this API may be used more
broadly in the future. Keeping this default implementation
around is very error prone as it may introduce a bug and
hide it on architectures that don't override this API.

Fix this by moving this definition to the jiffies based
cputime headers as it is the only place where it belongs to.

cputime: Avoid multiplication overflow on utime scaling

We scale stime, utime values based on rtime (sum_exec_runtime
converted to jiffies). During scaling we multiple rtime * utime,
which seems to be fine, since both values are converted to u64,
but it's not.

Let assume HZ is 1000 - 1ms tick. Process consist of 64 threads,
run for 1 day, threads utilize 100% cpu on user space. Machine
has 64 cpus.

Process rtime = utime will be 64 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 jiffies,
which is 0x149970000. Multiplication rtime * utime result is
0x1a855771100000000, which can not be covered in 64 bits.

Result of overflow is stall of utime values visible in user
space (prev_utime in kernel), even if application still consume
lot of CPU time.

A solution to solve this is to perform the multiplication on
stime instead of utime. It's easy to grow the utime value fast
with a CPU bound thread in userspace for example. Now we assume
that doing so with stime is much harder. In most cases a task
shouldn't ever spend much time in kernel space as it tends to
sleep waiting for jobs completion when they take long to
achieve. IO is the typical example of that.

Hence scaling the cputime by performing the multiplication on
stime instead of utime should considerably reduce the chances of
an overflow on most workloads.

This is largely inspired by a patch from Stanislaw Gruszka:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130107113144.GA7544@redhat.com

sched: Lower chances of cputime scaling overflow

Some users have reported that after running a process with
hundreds of threads on intensive CPU-bound loads, the cputime
of the group started to freeze after a few days.

This is due to how we scale the tick-based cputime against
the scheduler precise execution time value.

We add the values of all threads in the group and we multiply
that against the sum of the scheduler exec runtime of the whole
group.

This easily overflows after a few days/weeks of execution.

A proposed solution to solve this was to compute that multiplication
on stime instead of utime:
   ("cputime: Avoid multiplication overflow on utime scaling")

The rationale behind that was that it's easy for a thread to
spend most of its time in userspace under intensive CPU-bound workload
but it's much harder to do CPU-bound intensive long run in the kernel.

This postulate got defeated when a user recently reported he was still
seeing cputime freezes after the above patch. The workload that
triggers this issue relates to intensive networking workloads where
most of the cputime is consumed in the kernel.

To reduce much more the opportunities for multiplication overflow,
lets reduce the multiplication factors to the remainders of the division
between sched exec runtime and cputime. Assuming the difference between
these shouldn't ever be that large, it could work on many situations.

This gets the same results as in the upstream scaling code except for
a small difference: the upstream code always rounds the results to
the nearest integer not greater to what would be the precise result.
The new code rounds to the nearest integer either greater or not
greater. In practice this difference probably shouldn't matter but
it's worth mentioning.

If this solution appears not to be enough in the end, we'll
need to partly revert back to the behaviour prior to commit
     ("sched, cputime: Introduce thread_group_times()")

Back then, the scaling was done on exit() time before adding the cputime
of an exiting thread to the signal struct. And then we'll need to
scale one-by-one the live threads cputime in thread_group_cputime(). The
drawback may be a slightly slower code on exit time.

sched: Avoid cputime scaling overflow

Here is patch, which adds Linus's cputime scaling algorithm to the
kernel.

This is a follow up (well, fix) to commit
("sched: Lower chances of cputime scaling overflow")
which commit tried to avoid multiplication overflow,
but did not guarantee that the overflow would not happen.

Linus crated a different algorithm, which completely avoids the
multiplication overflow by dropping precision when numbers are
big.

It was tested by me and it gives good relative error of
scaled numbers. Testing method is described here:

sched: Do not account bogus utime

Due to rounding in scale_stime(), for big numbers, scaled stime
values will grow in chunks. Since rtime grow in jiffies and we
calculate utime like below:

	prev->stime = max(prev->stime, stime);
	prev->utime = max(prev->utime, rtime - prev->stime);

we could erroneously account stime values as utime. To prevent
that only update prev->{u,s}time values when they are smaller
than current rtime.

sched: Avoid prev->stime underflow

Dave Hansen reported strange utime/stime values on his system:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/4/435

This happens because prev->stime value is bigger than rtime
value. Root of the problem are non-monotonic rtime values (i.e.
current rtime is smaller than previous rtime) and that should be
debugged and fixed.

But since problem did not manifest itself before commit
"cputime: Avoid multiplication overflow on utime scaling",
it should be threated as regression, which we can easily
fixed on cputime_adjust() function.

For now, let's apply this fix, but further work is needed to fix
root of the problem.

sched/cputime: Do not scale when utime == 0

scale_stime() silently assumes that stime < rtime, otherwise
when stime == rtime and both values are big enough (operations
on them do not fit in 32 bits), the resulting scaling stime can
be bigger than rtime. In consequence utime = rtime - stime
results in negative value.

User space visible symptoms of the bug are overflowed TIME
values on ps/top, for example:

 $ ps aux | grep rcu
 root         8  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        S    12:42   0:00 [rcuc/0]
