Pull workqueue update from Tejun Heo: "This pull request contains one patch to make an unbound worker pool allocated from the NUMA node containing it if such node exists. As unbound worker pools are node-affine by default, this makes most pools allocated on the right node" * 'for-4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: Allocate the unbound pool using local node memory

workqueue: Allocate the unbound pool using local node memory

2015-10-12T16:17:31Z

Currently, get_unbound_pool() uses kzalloc() to allocate the worker pool. Actually, we can use the right node to do the allocation, achieving local memory access. This patch selects target node first, and uses kzalloc_node() instead. Signed-off-by: Xunlei Pang Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu

2015-09-30T17:06:46Z

My system keeps crashing with below message. vmstat_update() schedules a delayed work in current cpu and expects the work runs in the cpu. schedule_delayed_work() is expected to make delayed work run in local cpu. The problem is timer can be migrated with NO_HZ. __queue_work() queues work in timer handler, which could run in a different cpu other than where the delayed work is scheduled. The end result is the delayed work runs in different cpu. The patch makes __queue_delayed_work records local cpu earlier. Where the timer runs doesn't change where the work runs with the change.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest change in this cycle is the rewrite of the main SMP load balancing metric: the CPU load/utilization. The main goal was to make the metric more precise and more representative - see the changelog of this commit for the gory details: 9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking") It is done in a way that significantly reduces complexity of the code: 5 files changed, 249 insertions(+), 494 deletions(-) and the performance testing results are encouraging. Nevertheless we need to keep an eye on potential regressions, since this potentially affects every SMP workload in existence. This work comes from Yuyang Du. Other changes: - SCHED_DL updates. (Andrea Parri) - Simplify architecture callbacks by removing finish_arch_switch(). (Peter Zijlstra et al) - cputime accounting: guarantee stime + utime == rtime. (Peter Zijlstra) - optimize idle CPU wakeups some more - inspired by Facebook server loads. (Mike Galbraith) - stop_machine fixes and updates. (Oleg Nesterov) - Introduce the 'trace_sched_waking' tracepoint. (Peter Zijlstra) - sched/numa tweaks. (Srikar Dronamraju) - misc fixes and small cleanups" * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (44 commits) sched/deadline: Fix comment in enqueue_task_dl() sched/deadline: Fix comment in push_dl_tasks() sched: Change the sched_class::set_cpus_allowed() calling context sched: Make sched_class::set_cpus_allowed() unconditional sched: Fix a race between __kthread_bind() and sched_setaffinity() sched: Ensure a task has a non-normalized vruntime when returning back to CFS sched/numa: Fix NUMA_DIRECT topology identification tile: Reorganize _switch_to() sched, sparc32: Update scheduler comments in copy_thread() sched: Remove finish_arch_switch() sched, tile: Remove finish_arch_switch sched, sh: Fold finish_arch_switch() into switch_to() sched, score: Remove finish_arch_switch() sched, avr32: Remove finish_arch_switch() sched, MIPS: Get rid of finish_arch_switch() sched, arm: Remove finish_arch_switch() sched/fair: Clean up load average references sched/fair: Provide runnable_load_avg back to cfs_rq sched/fair: Remove task and group entity load when they are dead sched/fair: Init cfs_rq's sched_entity load average ...

sched: Fix a race between __kthread_bind() and sched_setaffinity()

2015-08-12T10:06:09Z

Because sched_setscheduler() checks p->flags & PF_NO_SETAFFINITY without locks, a caller might observe an old value and race with the set_cpus_allowed_ptr() call from __kthread_bind() and effectively undo it: __kthread_bind() do_set_cpus_allowed() sched_setaffinity() if (p->flags & PF_NO_SETAFFINITIY) set_cpus_allowed_ptr() p->flags |= PF_NO_SETAFFINITY Fix the bug by putting everything under the regular scheduler locks. This also closes a hole in the serialization of task_struct::{nr_,}cpus_allowed.

workqueue: Make flush_workqueue() available again to non GPL modules

2015-08-04T18:04:54Z

Commit 37b1ef31a568fc02e53587620226e5f3c66454c8 ("workqueue: move flush_scheduled_work() to workqueue.h") moved the exported non GPL flush_scheduled_work() from a function to an inline wrapper. Unfortunately, it directly calls flush_workqueue() which is a GPL function. This has the effect of changing the licensing requirement for this function and makes it unavailable to non GPL modules. See commit ad7b1f841f8a54c6d61ff181451f55b68175e15a ("workqueue: Make schedule_work() available again to non GPL modules") for precedent. Signed-off-by: Tim Gardner Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

rcu: Rename rcu_lockdep_assert() to RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN()

2015-07-22T22:27:32Z

This commit renames rcu_lockdep_assert() to RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() for consistency with the WARN() series of macros. This also requires inverting the sense of the conditional, which this commit also does. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Reviewed-by: Ingo Molnar

Pull module updates from Rusty Russell: "Main excitement here is Peter Zijlstra's lockless rbtree optimization to speed module address lookup. He found some abusers of the module lock doing that too. A little bit of parameter work here too; including Dan Streetman's breaking up the big param mutex so writing a parameter can load another module (yeah, really).
