This problem has been fixed by a couple of new patches: [PATCH v4 14/16] sched/core: uclamp: request CAP_SYS_ADMIN by default [PATCH v4 15/16] sched/core: uclamp: add clamp group discretization support which allows to ensure that only privileged tasks can create clamp groups and/or the clamps groups are transformed into buckets to always ensure a mapping for each possible userspace request. .:: Better integrate RT tasks ----------------------------- Quentin pointed out a change in behavior for RT task in: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180809155551.bp46sixk4u3ilcnh@queper01-lin/ which has been fixed by improving this patch: [PATCH v4 16/16] sched/cpufreq: uclamp: add utilization clamping for RT tasks This patch has also been moved to the end of the series since the solution is partially based on some bits already added by other patches of this series. .:: Improved refcounting code ----------------------------- Pavan reported some code paths not covered by refcounting: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180816091348.GD2661@codeaurora.org/ Which translated into a complete review and improvement of the slow-path code where we refcount clamp groups availability. We now properly refcount clamp groups usage for all the main entities, i.e. init_task, root_task_group and sysfs defaults. The same refcounting code has been properly integrated with fork/exit as well as cgroups creation/release code paths. .:: Series Organization ----------------------- The series is organized into these main sections: - Patches [01-05]: Per task (primary) API - Patches [06] : Schedutil integration for CFS tasks - Patches [07-13]: Per task group (secondary) API - Patches [14-15]: Fix issues related to limited clamp groups - Patches [16] : Schedutil integration for RT tasks Newcomer's Short Abstract (Updated) =================================== The Linux scheduler tracks a "utilization" signal for each scheduling entity (SE), e.g. tasks, to know how much CPU time they use. This signal allows the scheduler to know how "big" a task is and, in principle, it can support advanced task placement strategies by selecting the best CPU to run a task. Some of these strategies are represented by the Energy Aware scheduler extension [1]. When the schedutil cpufreq's governor is in use, the utilization signal allows also the Linux scheduler to drive frequency selection. The CPU utilization signal, which represents the aggregated utilization of tasks scheduled on that CPU, is used to select the frequency which best fits the task's generated workload. However, the current translation of utilization values into a frequency selection is pretty simple: we just go to max for RT tasks or to the minimum frequency which can accommodate the utilization of DL+FAIR tasks. Regarding task placement instead utilization is of limited usage since its value alone is not enough to properly describe what's the expected power/performance behaviors of each task. In general, for both RT and FAIR tasks we can aim at better tasks placement and frequency selection policies if take into consideration hints coming from user-space. Utilization clamping is a mechanism which allows to "clamp" (i.e. filter) the utilization generated by RT and FAIR tasks within a range defined from user-space. The clamped utilization value can then be used, for example, to enforce a minimum and/or maximum frequency depending on which tasks are currently active on a CPU. The main use-cases for utilization clamping are: - boosting: better interactive response for small tasks which are affecting the user experience. Consider for example the case of a small control thread for an external accelerator (e.g. GPU, DSP, other devices). In this case, from its utilization the scheduler does not have a complete view of what are the task requirements and, if it's a small utilization task, schedutil will keep selecting a more energy efficient CPU, with smaller capacity and lower frequency, thus affecting the overall time required to complete the task activations. - capping: increase energy efficiency for background tasks not directly affecting the user experience. Since running on a lower capacity CPU at a lower frequency is in general more energy efficient, when the completion time is not a main goal, then capping the utilization considered for certain (maybe big) tasks can have positive effects, both on energy consumption and thermal stress. Moreover, this last support allows also to make RT tasks more energy friendly on mobile systems, where running them on high capacity CPUs and at the maximum frequency is not strictly required. >From these two use-cases, it's worth to notice that frequency selection biasing, introduced by patches 6 and 16 of this series, is just one possible usage of utilization clamping. Another compelling extension of utilization clamping is in helping the scheduler on tasks placement decisions. Utilization is a task specific property which is used by the scheduler to know how much CPU bandwidth a task requires (under certain conditions). Thus, the utilization clamp values, defined either per-task or via the CPU controller, can be used to represent tasks to the scheduler as being bigger (or smaller) than what they really are. Utilization clamping thus ultimately enable interesting additional optimizations, especially on asymmetric capacity systems like Arm big.LITTLE and DynamIQ CPUs, where: - boosting: small tasks are preferably scheduled on higher-capacity CPUs where, despite being less energy efficient, they can complete faster - capping: big/background tasks are preferably scheduled on low-capacity CPUs where, being more energy efficient, they can still run but save power and thermal headroom for more important tasks. This additional usage of the utilization clamping is not presented in this series but it's an integral part of the Energy Aware Scheduler (EAS) feature set, where [1] is one of its main components.

This matches with the usage of p->uclamp[clamp_id].effective.group_id - allow to call uclamp_group_get() without a task pointer, which is used to refcount the initial clamp group for all the global objects (init_task, root_task_group and system_defaults) - ensure (and check) that all tasks have a valid group_id at uclamp_cpu_get_id() - rework uclamp_cpu layout to better fit into just 2x64B cache lines - fix some s/SCHED_DEBUG/CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG/ - init uclamp for the init_task and refcount its clamp groups - add uclamp specific fork time code into uclamp_fork - add support for SCHED_FLAG_RESET_ON_FORK default clamps are now set for init_task and inherited/reset at fork time (when then flag is set for the parent) - enable uclamp only for FAIR tasks, RT class will be enabled only by a following patch which also integrate the class to schedutil - define uclamp_maps ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp - in uclamp_group_get() ensure to include uclamp_group_available() and uclamp_group_init() into the atomic section defined by: uc_map[next_group_id].se_lock - do not use mutex_lock(&uclamp_mutex) in uclamp_exit_task which is also not needed since refcounting is already guarded by the uc_map[group_id].se_lock spinlock - consolidate init_uclamp_sched_group() into init_uclamp() - refcount root_task_group's clamp groups from init_uclamp() - small documentation fixes - rebased on v4.19-rc1 Changes in v3: Message-ID: - removed UCLAMP_NONE not used by this patch - remove not necessary checks in uclamp_group_find() - add WARN on unlikely un-referenced decrement in uclamp_group_put() - add WARN on unlikely un-referenced decrement in uclamp_cpu_put_id() - make __setscheduler_uclamp() able to set just one clamp value - make __setscheduler_uclamp() failing if both clamps are required but there is no clamp groups available for one of them - remove uclamp_group_find() from uclamp_group_get() which now takes a group_id as a parameter - add explicit calls to uclamp_group_find() which is now not more part of uclamp_group_get() - fixed a not required override - fixed some typos in comments and changelog Message-ID: - few typos fixed Message-ID: <20180409222417.GK3126663@devbig577.frc2.facebook.com> - use "." notation for attributes naming i.e. s/util_{min,max}/util.{min,max}/ - added new patches: 09 and 12 Other changes: - rebased on tip/sched/core Changes in v2: Message-ID: <20180413093822.GM4129@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net> - refactored struct rq::uclamp_cpu to be more cache efficient no more holes, re-arranged vectors to match cache lines with expected data locality Message-ID: <20180413094615.GT4043@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net> - use *rq as parameter whenever already available - add scheduling class's uclamp_enabled marker - get rid of the "confusing" single callback uclamp_task_update() and use uclamp_cpu_{get,put}() directly from {en,de}queue_task() - fix/remove "bad" comments Message-ID: <20180413113337.GU14248@e110439-lin> - remove inline from init_uclamp, flag it __init Message-ID: <20180413111900.GF4082@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net> - get rid of the group_id back annotation which is not requires at this stage where we have only per-task clamping support. It will be introduce later when cgroup support is added. Message-ID: <20180409222417.GK3126663@devbig577.frc2.facebook.com> - make attributes available only on non-root nodes a system wide API seems of not immediate interest and thus it's not supported anymore - remove implicit parent-child constraints and dependencies Message-ID: <20180410200514.GA793541@devbig577.frc2.facebook.com> - add some cgroup-v2 documentation for the new attributes - (hopefully) better explain intended use-cases the changelog above has been extended to better justify the naming proposed by the new attributes Other changes: - improved documentation to make more explicit some concepts - set UCLAMP_GROUPS_COUNT=2 by default which allows to fit all the hot-path CPU clamps data into a single cache line while still supporting up to 2 different {min,max}_utiql clamps. - use -ERANGE as range violation error - add attributes to the default hierarchy as well as the legacy one - implement a "nice" semantics where cgroup clamp values are always used to restrict task specific clamp values, i.e. tasks running on a TG are only allowed to demote themself. - patches re-ordering in top-down way - rebased on v4.18-rc4 Patrick Bellasi (16): sched/core: uclamp: extend sched_setattr to support utilization clamping sched/core: uclamp: map TASK's clamp values into CPU's clamp groups sched/core: uclamp: add CPU's clamp groups accounting sched/core: uclamp: update CPU's refcount on clamp changes sched/core: uclamp: enforce last task UCLAMP_MAX sched/cpufreq: uclamp: add utilization clamping for FAIR tasks sched/core: uclamp: extend cpu's cgroup controller sched/core: uclamp: propagate parent clamps sched/core: uclamp: map TG's clamp values into CPU's clamp groups sched/core: uclamp: use TG's clamps to restrict Task's clamps sched/core: uclamp: add system default clamps sched/core: uclamp: update CPU's refcount on TG's clamp changes sched/core: uclamp: use percentage clamp values sched/core: uclamp: request CAP_SYS_ADMIN by default sched/core: uclamp: add clamp group discretization support sched/cpufreq: uclamp: add utilization clamping for RT tasks Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst | 46 + .../admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt | 3 + include/linux/sched.h | 65 + include/linux/sched/sysctl.h | 11 + include/linux/sched/task.h | 6 + include/uapi/linux/sched.h | 8 +- include/uapi/linux/sched/types.h | 68 +- init/Kconfig | 63 + init/init_task.c | 1 + kernel/exit.c | 1 + kernel/sched/core.c | 1368 ++++++++++++++++- kernel/sched/cpufreq_schedutil.c | 31 +- kernel/sched/fair.c | 4 + kernel/sched/features.h | 10 + kernel/sched/rt.c | 4 + kernel/sched/sched.h | 177 ++- kernel/sysctl.c | 16 + 17 files changed, 1863 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) -- 2.18.0
