[PATCH v11 0/7] feec() energy margin removal

[PATCH v11 0/7] feec() energy margin removal

[Vincent Donnefort]

Hi,

Here's a new version of the patch-set to get rid of the energy margin in
find_energy_efficient_cpu() (feec()). Many thanks to all for the insightful
comments I got.

feec() will migrate a task to save energy only if it saves at least 6% of
the total energy consumed by the system. This conservative approach is a
problem on a system where a lot of small tasks create a huge load on the
overall: very few of them will be allowed to migrate to a smaller CPU,
wasting a lot of energy. Instead of trying to determine yet another margin,
let's try to remove it.

The first elements of this patch-set are various fixes and improvements
which stabilize task_util and ensures energy comparison fairness across all
CPUs.  Only once those fixed, we can completely remove the margin and let
feec() place tasks more aggressively and save energy.

This has been validated in two different ways:

First using LISA's eas_behaviour test suite. This is composed of a set of
scenarios and verifies if the task placement is optimum. No failure has been
observed and it also improved some tests such as Ramp-Down (as the
placement is now more energy oriented) and *ThreeSmall (as no bouncing
between clusters happen anymore).

  * Hikey960: 100% PASSED
  * DB-845C:  100% PASSED
  * RB5:      100% PASSED

Second, using an Android benchmark: PCMark2 on a Pixel4, with a lot of
backports to have a scheduler as close as we can from mainline.

  +------------+-----------------+-----------------+

The margin removal let the kernel make the best use of the Energy Model,
tasks are more likely to be placed where they fit and this saves a
substantial amount of energy, while having a limited impact on
performances.

[1] This is an energy estimation based on the CPU activity and the Energy
Model for this device. "All models are wrong but some are useful"; yes,
this is an imperfect estimation that doesn't take into account some idle
states and shared power rails. Nonetheless this is based on the information
the kernel has during runtime and it proves the scheduler can take better
decisions based solely on those data.

[2] This is the only performance impact observed. The debugging of this
test showed no issue with task placement. The better score was solely due
to some critical threads held on better performing CPUs. If a thread needs
a higher capacity CPU, the placement must result from a user input (with
e.g. uclamp min) instead of being artificially held on less efficient CPUs
by feec(). Notice also, the experiment didn't use the Android-only
latency_sensitive feature which would hide this problem on a real-life
device.

[PATCH v11 1/7] sched/fair: Provide u64 read for 32-bits arch helper

[Vincent Donnefort]

From: Vincent Donnefort <vincent.donnefort@arm.com>

Introducing macro helpers u64_u32_{store,load}() to factorize lockless
accesses to u64 variables for 32-bits architectures.

Users are for now cfs_rq.min_vruntime and sched_avg.last_update_time. To
accommodate the later where the copy lies outside of the structure
(cfs_rq.last_udpate_time_copy instead of sched_avg.last_update_time_copy),
use the _copy() version of those helpers.

Those new helpers encapsulate smp_rmb() and smp_wmb() synchronization and
therefore, have a small penalty for 32-bits machines in set_task_rq_fair()
and init_cfs_rq().

[PATCH v11 2/7] sched/fair: Decay task PELT values during wakeup migration

[Vincent Donnefort]

From: Vincent Donnefort <vincent.donnefort@arm.com>

Before being migrated to a new CPU, a task sees its PELT values
synchronized with rq last_update_time. Once done, that same task will also
have its sched_avg last_update_time reset. This means the time between
the migration and the last clock update will not be accounted for in
util_avg and a discontinuity will appear. This issue is amplified by the
PELT clock scaling. It takes currently one tick after the CPU being idle
to let clock_pelt catching up clock_task.

This is especially problematic for asymmetric CPU capacity systems which
need stable util_avg signals for task placement and energy estimation.

Ideally, this problem would be solved by updating the runqueue clocks
before the migration. But that would require taking the runqueue lock
which is quite expensive [1]. Instead estimate the missing time and update
the task util_avg with that value.

To that end, we need sched_clock_cpu() but it is a costly function. Limit
the usage to the case where the source CPU is idle as we know this is when
the clock is having the biggest risk of being outdated.

See comment in migrate_se_pelt_lag() for more details about how the PELT
value is estimated. Notice though this estimation doesn't take into account
IRQ and Paravirt time.

[PATCH v11 3/7] sched, drivers: Remove max param from effective_cpu_util()/sched_cpu_util()

[Vincent Donnefort]

From: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com>

effective_cpu_util() already has a `int cpu' parameter which allows to
retrieve the CPU capacity scale factor (or maximum CPU capacity) inside
this function via an arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu).

A lot of code calling effective_cpu_util() (or the shim
sched_cpu_util()) needs the maximum CPU capacity, i.e. it will call
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() already.
But not having to pass it into effective_cpu_util() will make the EAS
wake-up code easier, especially when the maximum CPU capacity reduced
by the thermal pressure is passed through the EAS wake-up functions.

Due to the asymmetric CPU capacity support of arm/arm64 architectures,
arch_scale_cpu_capacity(int cpu) is a per-CPU variable read access via
per_cpu(cpu_scale, cpu) on such a system.
On all other architectures it is a a compile-time constant
(SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE).

[PATCH v11 4/7] sched/fair: Rename select_idle_mask to select_rq_mask

[Vincent Donnefort]

From: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com>

Decouple the name of the per-cpu cpumask select_idle_mask from its usage
in select_idle_[cpu/capacity]() of the CFS run-queue selection
(select_task_rq_fair()).

This is to support the reuse of this cpumask in the Energy Aware
Scheduling (EAS) path (find_energy_efficient_cpu()) of the CFS run-queue
selection.

[PATCH v11 5/7] sched/fair: Use the same cpumask per-PD throughout find_energy_efficient_cpu()

[Vincent Donnefort]

From: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com>

The Perf Domain (PD) cpumask (struct em_perf_domain.cpus) stays
invariant after Energy Model creation, i.e. it is not updated after
CPU hotplug operations.

That's why the PD mask is used in conjunction with the cpu_online_mask
(or Sched Domain cpumask). Thereby the cpu_online_mask is fetched
multiple times (in compute_energy()) during a run-queue selection
for a task.

cpu_online_mask may change during this time which can lead to wrong
energy calculations.

To be able to avoid this, use the select_rq_mask per-cpu cpumask to
create a cpumask out of PD cpumask and cpu_online_mask and pass it
through the function calls of the EAS run-queue selection path.

The PD cpumask for max_spare_cap_cpu/compute_prev_delta selection
(find_energy_efficient_cpu()) is now ANDed not only with the SD mask
but also with the cpu_online_mask. This is fine since this cpumask
has to be in syc with the one used for energy computation
(compute_energy()).
An exclusive cpuset setup with at least one asymmetric CPU capacity
island (hence the additional AND with the SD cpumask) is the obvious
exception here.

[PATCH v11 6/7] sched/fair: Remove task_util from effective utilization in feec()

[Vincent Donnefort]

From: Vincent Donnefort <vincent.donnefort@arm.com>

The energy estimation in find_energy_efficient_cpu() (feec()) relies on
the computation of the effective utilization for each CPU of a perf domain
(PD). This effective utilization is then used as an estimation of the busy
time for this pd. The function effective_cpu_util() which gives this value,
scales the utilization relative to IRQ pressure on the CPU to take into
account that the IRQ time is hidden from the task clock. The IRQ scaling is
as follow:

   effective_cpu_util = irq + (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * util

Where util is the sum of CFS/RT/DL utilization, cpu_cap the capacity of
the CPU and irq the IRQ avg time.

If now we take as an example a task placement which doesn't raise the OPP
on the candidate CPU, we can write the energy delta as:

  delta = OPPcost/cpu_cap * (effective_cpu_util(cpu_util + task_util) -
                             effective_cpu_util(cpu_util))
        = OPPcost/cpu_cap * (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * task_util

We end-up with an energy delta depending on the IRQ avg time, which is a
problem: first the time spent on IRQs by a CPU has no effect on the
additional energy that would be consumed by a task. Second, we don't want
to favour a CPU with a higher IRQ avg time value.

Nonetheless, we need to take the IRQ avg time into account. If a task
placement raises the PD's frequency, it will increase the energy cost for
the entire time where the CPU is busy. A solution is to only use
effective_cpu_util() with the CPU contribution part. The task contribution
is added separately and scaled according to prev_cpu's IRQ time.

No change for the FREQUENCY_UTIL component of the energy estimation. We
still want to get the actual frequency that would be selected after the
task placement.

[PATCH v11 7/7] sched/fair: Remove the energy margin in feec()

[Vincent Donnefort]

From: Vincent Donnefort <vincent.donnefort@arm.com>

find_energy_efficient_cpu() integrates a margin to protect tasks from
bouncing back and forth from a CPU to another. This margin is set as being
6% of the total current energy estimated on the system. This however does
not work for two reasons:

1. The energy estimation is not a good absolute value:

compute_energy() used in feec() is a good estimation for task placement as
it allows to compare the energy with and without a task. The computed
delta will give a good overview of the cost for a certain task placement.
It, however, doesn't work as an absolute estimation for the total energy
of the system. First it adds the contribution to idle CPUs into the
energy, second it mixes util_avg with util_est values. util_avg contains
the near history for a CPU usage, it doesn't tell at all what the current
utilization is. A system that has been quite busy in the near past will
hold a very high energy and then a high margin preventing any task
migration to a lower capacity CPU, wasting energy. It even creates a
negative feedback loop: by holding the tasks on a less efficient CPU, the
margin contributes in keeping the energy high.

2. The margin handicaps small tasks:

On a system where the workload is composed mostly of small tasks (which is
often the case on Android), the overall energy will be high enough to
create a margin none of those tasks can cross. On a Pixel4, a small
utilization of 5% on all the CPUs creates a global estimated energy of 140
joules, as per the Energy Model declaration of that same device. This
means, after applying the 6% margin that any migration must save more than
8 joules to happen. No task with a utilization lower than 40 would then be
able to migrate away from the biggest CPU of the system.

The 6% of the overall system energy was brought by the following patch:

 (eb92692b2544 sched/fair: Speed-up energy-aware wake-ups)

It was previously 6% of the prev_cpu energy. Also, the following one
made this margin value conditional on the clusters where the task fits:

 (8d4c97c105ca sched/fair: Only compute base_energy_pd if necessary)

We could simply revert that margin change to what it was, but the original
version didn't have strong grounds neither and as demonstrated in (1.) the
estimated energy isn't a good absolute value. Instead, removing it
completely. It is indeed, made possible by recent changes that improved
energy estimation comparison fairness (sched/fair: Remove task_util from
effective utilization in feec()) (PM: EM: Increase energy calculation
precision) and task utilization stabilization (sched/fair: Decay task
util_avg during migration)

Without a margin, we could have feared bouncing between CPUs. But running
LISA's eas_behaviour test coverage on three different platforms (Hikey960,
RB-5 and DB-845) showed no issue.

Removing the energy margin enables more energy-optimized placements for a
more energy efficient system.

Decouple the name of the per-cpu cpumask select_idle_mask from its usage
in select_idle_[cpu/capacity]() of the CFS run-queue selection
(select_task_rq_fair()).

This is to support the reuse of this cpumask in the Energy Aware

sched/fair: Remove the energy margin in feec()

find_energy_efficient_cpu() integrates a margin to protect tasks from
bouncing back and forth from a CPU to another. This margin is set as being
6% of the total current energy estimated on the system. This however does
not work for two reasons:

1. The energy estimation is not a good absolute value:

compute_energy() used in feec() is a good estimation for task placement as
it allows to compare the energy with and without a task. The computed
delta will give a good overview of the cost for a certain task placement.
It, however, doesn't work as an absolute estimation for the total energy
of the system. First it adds the contribution to idle CPUs into the
energy, second it mixes util_avg with util_est values. util_avg contains
the near history for a CPU usage, it doesn't tell at all what the current
utilization is. A system that has been quite busy in the near past will
hold a very high energy and then a high margin preventing any task
migration to a lower capacity CPU, wasting energy. It even creates a
negative feedback loop: by holding the tasks on a less efficient CPU, the
margin contributes in keeping the energy high.

2. The margin handicaps small tasks:

On a system where the workload is composed mostly of small tasks (which is
often the case on Android), the overall energy will be high enough to
create a margin none of those tasks can cross. On a Pixel4, a small
utilization of 5% on all the CPUs creates a global estimated energy of 140
joules, as per the Energy Model declaration of that same device. This
means, after applying the 6% margin that any migration must save more than
8 joules to happen. No task with a utilization lower than 40 would then be
able to migrate away from the biggest CPU of the system.

The 6% of the overall system energy was brought by the following patch:

 (eb92692b2544 sched/fair: Speed-up energy-aware wake-ups)

It was previously 6% of the prev_cpu energy. Also, the following one
made this margin value conditional on the clusters where the task fits:

 (8d4c97c105ca sched/fair: Only compute base_energy_pd if necessary)

We could simply revert that margin change to what it was, but the original
version didn't have strong grounds neither and as demonstrated in (1.) the
estimated energy isn't a good absolute value. Instead, removing it
completely. It is indeed, made possible by recent changes that improved
energy estimation comparison fairness (sched/fair: Remove task_util from
effective utilization in feec()) (PM: EM: Increase energy calculation
precision) and task utilization stabilization (sched/fair: Decay task
util_avg during migration)

Without a margin, we could have feared bouncing between CPUs. But running
LISA's eas_behaviour test coverage on three different platforms (Hikey960,
RB-5 and DB-845) showed no issue.

Removing the energy margin enables more energy-optimized placements for a
more energy efficient system.

sched/fair: Remove task_util from effective utilization in feec()

The energy estimation in find_energy_efficient_cpu() (feec()) relies on
the computation of the effective utilization for each CPU of a perf domain
(PD). This effective utilization is then used as an estimation of the busy
time for this pd. The function effective_cpu_util() which gives this value,
scales the utilization relative to IRQ pressure on the CPU to take into
account that the IRQ time is hidden from the task clock. The IRQ scaling is
as follow:

   effective_cpu_util = irq + (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * util

Where util is the sum of CFS/RT/DL utilization, cpu_cap the capacity of
the CPU and irq the IRQ avg time.

If now we take as an example a task placement which doesn't raise the OPP
on the candidate CPU, we can write the energy delta as:

  delta = OPPcost/cpu_cap * (effective_cpu_util(cpu_util + task_util) -
                             effective_cpu_util(cpu_util))
        = OPPcost/cpu_cap * (cpu_cap - irq)/cpu_cap * task_util

We end-up with an energy delta depending on the IRQ avg time, which is a
problem: first the time spent on IRQs by a CPU has no effect on the
additional energy that would be consumed by a task. Second, we don't want
to favour a CPU with a higher IRQ avg time value.

Nonetheless, we need to take the IRQ avg time into account. If a task
placement raises the PD's frequency, it will increase the energy cost for
the entire time where the CPU is busy. A solution is to only use
effective_cpu_util() with the CPU contribution part. The task contribution
is added separately and scaled according to prev_cpu's IRQ time.

No change for the FREQUENCY_UTIL component of the energy estimation. We
still want to get the actual frequency that would be selected after the
task placement.

sched/fair: Use the same cpumask per-PD throughout find_energy_efficient_cpu()

The Perf Domain (PD) cpumask (struct em_perf_domain.cpus) stays
invariant after Energy Model creation, i.e. it is not updated after
CPU hotplug operations.

That's why the PD mask is used in conjunction with the cpu_online_mask
(or Sched Domain cpumask). Thereby the cpu_online_mask is fetched
multiple times (in compute_energy()) during a run-queue selection
for a task.

cpu_online_mask may change during this time which can lead to wrong
energy calculations.

To be able to avoid this, use the select_rq_mask per-cpu cpumask to
create a cpumask out of PD cpumask and cpu_online_mask and pass it
through the function calls of the EAS run-queue selection path.

The PD cpumask for max_spare_cap_cpu/compute_prev_delta selection
(find_energy_efficient_cpu()) is now ANDed not only with the SD mask
but also with the cpu_online_mask. This is fine since this cpumask
has to be in syc with the one used for energy computation
(compute_energy()).
An exclusive cpuset setup with at least one asymmetric CPU capacity
island (hence the additional AND with the SD cpumask) is the obvious
exception here.

that this patch doesn't build anymore (on tip sched/core or linux-next)
because of commit f5b2eeb499910 ("sched/fair: Consider CPU affinity when
allowing NUMA imbalance in find_idlest_group()").

New version of [PATCH v11 4/7] sched/fair: Rename select_idle_mask to
select_rq_mask below.

-- >8 --

Decouple the name of the per-cpu cpumask select_idle_mask from its usage
in select_idle_[cpu/capacity]() of the CFS run-queue selection
(select_task_rq_fair()).

This is to support the reuse of this cpumask in the Energy Aware
Scheduling (EAS) path (find_energy_efficient_cpu()) of the CFS run-queue
selection.

sched, drivers: Remove max param from effective_cpu_util()/sched_cpu_util()

effective_cpu_util() already has a `int cpu' parameter which allows to
retrieve the CPU capacity scale factor (or maximum CPU capacity) inside
this function via an arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu).

A lot of code calling effective_cpu_util() (or the shim
sched_cpu_util()) needs the maximum CPU capacity, i.e. it will call
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() already.
But not having to pass it into effective_cpu_util() will make the EAS
wake-up code easier, especially when the maximum CPU capacity reduced
by the thermal pressure is passed through the EAS wake-up functions.

Due to the asymmetric CPU capacity support of arm/arm64 architectures,
arch_scale_cpu_capacity(int cpu) is a per-CPU variable read access via
per_cpu(cpu_scale, cpu) on such a system.
On all other architectures it is a a compile-time constant
(SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE).

sched/fair: Decay task PELT values during wakeup migration

Before being migrated to a new CPU, a task sees its PELT values
synchronized with rq last_update_time. Once done, that same task will also
have its sched_avg last_update_time reset. This means the time between
the migration and the last clock update will not be accounted for in
util_avg and a discontinuity will appear. This issue is amplified by the
PELT clock scaling. It takes currently one tick after the CPU being idle
to let clock_pelt catching up clock_task.

This is especially problematic for asymmetric CPU capacity systems which
need stable util_avg signals for task placement and energy estimation.

Ideally, this problem would be solved by updating the runqueue clocks
before the migration. But that would require taking the runqueue lock
which is quite expensive [1]. Instead estimate the missing time and update
the task util_avg with that value.

To that end, we need sched_clock_cpu() but it is a costly function. Limit
the usage to the case where the source CPU is idle as we know this is when
the clock is having the biggest risk of being outdated.

See comment in migrate_se_pelt_lag() for more details about how the PELT
value is estimated. Notice though this estimation doesn't take into account
IRQ and Paravirt time.

sched/fair: Provide u64 read for 32-bits arch helper

Introducing macro helpers u64_u32_{store,load}() to factorize lockless
accesses to u64 variables for 32-bits architectures.

Users are for now cfs_rq.min_vruntime and sched_avg.last_update_time. To
accommodate the later where the copy lies outside of the structure
(cfs_rq.last_udpate_time_copy instead of sched_avg.last_update_time_copy),
use the _copy() version of those helpers.

Those new helpers encapsulate smp_rmb() and smp_wmb() synchronization and
therefore, have a small penalty for 32-bits machines in set_task_rq_fair()
and init_cfs_rq().
