Ensure sugov_eas_rebuild_sd() is always called when sugov_init()
succeeds. The out goto initialized sugov without forcing the rebuild.
Previously the missing call to sugov_eas_rebuild_sd() could lead to EAS
not being enabled on boot when it should have been, because it requires
all policies to be controlled by schedutil while they might not have
been initialized yet.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext
Pull sched_ext fixes from Tejun Heo:
- The fair sched class currently has a bug where its balance() returns
true telling the sched core that it has tasks to run but then NULL
from pick_task(). This makes sched core call sched_ext's pick_task()
without preceding balance() which can lead to stalls in partial mode.
For now, work around by detecting the condition and forcing the CPU
to go through another scheduling cycle.
- Add a missing newline to an error message and fix drgn introspection
tool which went out of sync.

scx_bpf_dsq_move[_vtime]*()
In sched_ext API, a repeatedly reported pain point is the overuse of the
verb "dispatch" and confusion around "consume":
- ops.dispatch()
- scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]()
- scx_bpf_consume()
- scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq*()
This overloading of the term is historical. Originally, there were only
built-in DSQs and moving a task into a DSQ always dispatched it for
execution. Using the verb "dispatch" for the kfuncs to move tasks into these
DSQs made sense.
Later, user DSQs were added and scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]() updated to be
able to insert tasks into any DSQ. The only allowed DSQ to DSQ transfer was
from a non-local DSQ to a local DSQ and this operation was named "consume".
This was already confusing as a task could be dispatched to a user DSQ from
ops.enqueue() and then the DSQ would have to be consumed in ops.dispatch().
Later addition of scx_bpf_dispatch_from_dsq*() made the confusion even worse
as "dispatch" in this context meant moving a task to an arbitrary DSQ from a
user DSQ.
Clean up the API with the following renames:
1. scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]() -> scx_bpf_dsq_insert[_vtime]()
2. scx_bpf_consume() -> scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local()
3. scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq*() -> scx_bpf_dsq_move[_vtime]*()
This patch performs the third set of renames. Compatibility is maintained
by:
- The previous kfunc names are still provided by the kernel so that old
binaries can run. Kernel generates a warning when the old names are used.
- compat.bpf.h provides wrappers for the new names which automatically fall
back to the old names when running on older kernels. They also trigger
build error if old names are used for new builds.
- scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq*() were already wrapped in __COMPAT
macros as they were introduced during v6.12 cycle. Wrap new API in
__COMPAT macros too and trigger build errors on both __COMPAT prefixed and
naked usages of the old names.
The compat features will be dropped after v6.15.

balance_scx()
sched_ext dispatches tasks from the BPF scheduler from balance_scx() and
thus every pick_task_scx() call must be preceded by balance_scx(). While
this usually holds, due to a bug, there are cases where the fair class's
balance() returns true indicating that it has tasks to run on the CPU and
thus terminating balance() calls but fails to actually find the next task to
run when pick_task() is called. In such cases, pick_task_scx() can be called
without preceding balance_scx().
Detect this condition using SCX_RQ_BAL_PENDING flags. If detected, keep
running the previous task if possible and avoid stalling from entering idle
without balancing.

When getting an LLC CPU mask in the default CPU selection policy,
scx_select_cpu_dfl(), a pointer to the sched_domain is dereferenced
using rcu_read_lock() without holding rcu_read_lock(). Such an unprotected
dereference often causes the following warning and can cause an invalid
memory access in the worst case.
Therefore, protect dereference of a sched_domain pointer using a pair
of rcu_read_lock() and unlock().

On 2 x Intel Sapphire Rapids machines with 224 logical CPUs, a poorly
behaving BPF scheduler can live-lock the system by making multiple CPUs bang
on the same DSQ to the point where soft-lockup detection triggers before
SCX's own watchdog can take action. It also seems possible that the machine
can be live-locked enough to prevent scx_ops_helper, which is an RT task,
from running in a timely manner.
Implement scx_softlockup() which is called when three quarters of
soft-lockup threshold has passed. The function immediately enables the ops
breather and triggers an ops error to initiate ejection of the BPF
scheduler.
The previous and this patch combined enable the kernel to reliably recover
the system from live-lock conditions that can be triggered by a poorly
behaving BPF scheduler on Intel dual socket systems.

A poorly behaving BPF scheduler can live-lock the system by e.g. incessantly
banging on the same DSQ on a large NUMA system to the point where switching
to the bypass mode can take a long time. Turning on the bypass mode requires
dequeueing and re-enqueueing currently runnable tasks, if the DSQs that they
are on are live-locked, this can take tens of seconds cascading into other
failures. This was observed on 2 x Intel Sapphire Rapids machines with 224
logical CPUs.
Inject artifical delays while the bypass mode is switching to guarantee
timely completion.
While at it, move __scx_ops_bypass_lock into scx_ops_bypass() and rename it
to bypass_lock.

When the LLC and NUMA domains fully overlap, enabling both optimizations
in the built-in idle CPU selection policy is redundant, as it leads to
searching for an idle CPU within the same domain twice.
Likewise, if all online CPUs are within a single LLC domain, LLC
optimization is unnecessary.
Therefore, detect overlapping domains and enable topology optimizations
only when necessary.
Moreover, rely on the online CPUs for this detection logic, instead of
using the possible CPUs.

Change fair to use resched_curr_lazy(), which, when the lazy
preemption model is selected, will set TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY.
This LAZY bit will be promoted to the full NEED_RESCHED bit on tick.
As such, the average delay between setting LAZY and actually
rescheduling will be TICK_NSEC/2.
In short, Lazy preemption will delay preemption for fair class but
will function as Full preemption for all the other classes, most
notably the realtime (RR/FIFO/DEADLINE) classes.
The goal is to bridge the performance gap with Voluntary, such that we
might eventually remove that option entirely.

Instead of solving the underlying problem of the double invocation of
__sched_fork() for idle tasks, sched-ext decided to hack around the issue
by partially clearing out the entity struct to preserve the already
enqueued node. A provided analysis and solution has been ignored for four
months.
Now that someone else has taken care of cleaning it up, remove the
disgusting hack and clear out the full structure. Remove the comment in the
structure declaration as well, as there is no requirement for @node being
the last element anymore.

Idle tasks are initialized via __sched_fork() twice:
fork_idle()
copy_process()
sched_fork()
__sched_fork()
init_idle()
__sched_fork()
Instead of cleaning this up, sched_ext hacked around it. Even when analyis
and solution were provided in a discussion, nobody cared to clean this up.
init_idle() is also invoked from sched_init() to initialize the boot CPU's
idle task, which requires the __sched_fork() invocation. But this can be
trivially solved by invoking __sched_fork() before init_idle() in
sched_init() and removing the __sched_fork() invocation from init_idle().
Do so and clean up the comments explaining this historical leftover.

Pull scheduler fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- Plug a race between pick_next_task_fair() and try_to_wake_up() where
both try to write to the same task, even though both paths hold a
runqueue lock, but obviously from different runqueues.
The problem is that the store to task::on_rq in __block_task() is
visible to try_to_wake_up() which assumes that the task is not
queued. Both sides then operate on the same task.
Cure it by rearranging __block_task() so the the store to task::on_rq
is the last operation on the task.
- Prevent a potential NULL pointer dereference in task_numa_work()
task_numa_work() iterates the VMAs of a process. A concurrent unmap
of the address space can result in a NULL pointer return from
vma_next() which is unchecked.
Add the missing NULL pointer check to prevent this.
- Operate on the correct scheduler policy in task_should_scx()
task_should_scx() returns true when a task should be handled by sched
EXT. It checks the tasks scheduling policy.
This fails when the check is done before a policy has been set.
Cure it by handing the policy into task_should_scx() so it operates
on the requested value.
- Add the missing handling of sched EXT in the delayed dequeue
mechanism. This was simply forgotten.

Similarly to commit dfa4ed29b18c ("sched_ext: Introduce LLC awareness to
the default idle selection policy"), extend the built-in idle CPU
selection policy to also prioritize CPUs within the same NUMA node.
With this change applied, the built-in CPU idle selection policy follows
this logic:
- always prioritize CPUs from fully idle SMT cores,
- select the same CPU if possible,
- select a CPU within the same LLC domain,
- select a CPU within the same NUMA node.
Both NUMA and LLC awareness features are enabled only when the system
has multiple NUMA nodes or multiple LLC domains.
In the future, we may want to improve the NUMA node selection to account
the node distance from prev_cpu. Currently, the logic only tries to keep
tasks running on the same NUMA node. If all CPUs within a node are busy,
the next NUMA node is chosen randomly.

Commit 98442f0ccd82 ("sched: Fix delayed_dequeue vs
switched_from_fair()") overlooked that __setscheduler_prio(), now
__setscheduler_class() relies on p->policy for task_should_scx(), and
moved the call before __setscheduler_params() updates it, causing it
to be using the old p->policy value.
Resolve this by changing task_should_scx() to take the policy itself
instead of a task pointer, such that __sched_setscheduler() can pass
in the updated policy.

What psi needs to do on each enqueue and dequeue has gotten more
subtle, and the generic sched code trying to distill this into a bool
for the callbacks is awkward.
Pass the flags directly and let psi parse them. For that to work, the
#include "stats.h" (which has the psi callback implementations) needs
to be below the flag definitions in "sched.h". Move that section
further down, next to some of the other accounting stuff.
This also puts the ENQUEUE_SAVE/RESTORE branch behind the psi jump
label, slightly reducing overhead when PSI=y but runtime disabled.

stress-ng-vm-segv in stress-ng is used to stress test the SIGSEGV error
handling function of the system, which tries to cause a SIGSEGV error on
return from unmapping the whole address space of the child process.
Normally this program will not cause kernel crashes. But before the
munmap system call returns to user mode, a potential task_numa_work()
for numa balancing could be added and executed. In this scenario, since the
child process has no vma after munmap, the vma_next() in task_numa_work()
will return a null pointer even if the vma iterator restarts from 0.
Recheck the vma pointer before dereferencing it in task_numa_work().

scx_ops_bypass() can currently race on the ops enable / disable path as
follows:
1. scx_ops_bypass(true) called on enable path, bypass depth is set to 1
2. An op on the init path exits, which schedules scx_ops_disable_workfn()
3. scx_ops_bypass(false) is called on the disable path, and bypass depth
is decremented to 0
4. kthread is scheduled to execute scx_ops_disable_workfn()
5. scx_ops_bypass(true) called, bypass depth set to 1
6. scx_ops_bypass() races when iterating over CPUs
While it's not safe to take any blocking locks on the bypass path, it is
safe to take a raw spinlock which cannot be preempted. This patch therefore
updates scx_ops_bypass() to use a raw spinlock to synchronize, and changes
scx_ops_bypass_depth to be a regular int.
Without this change, we observe the following warnings when running the
'exit' sched_ext selftest (sometimes requires a couple of runs):

ops.dispatch() and ops.yield() may be fed a NULL task_struct pointer.
set_arg_maybe_null() is used to tell the verifier that they should be NULL
checked before being dereferenced. BPF now has an a lot prettier way to
express this - tagging arguments in CFI stubs with __nullable. Replace
set_arg_maybe_null() with __nullable CFI stub tags.

Rely on the scheduler topology information to implement basic LLC
awareness in the sched_ext build-in idle selection policy.
This allows schedulers using the built-in policy to make more informed
decisions when selecting an idle CPU in systems with multiple LLCs, such
as NUMA systems or chiplet-based architectures, and it helps keep tasks
within the same LLC domain, thereby improving cache locality.
For efficiency, LLC awareness is applied only to tasks that can run on
all the CPUs in the system for now. If a task's affinity is modified
from user space, it's the responsibility of user space to choose the
appropriate optimized scheduling domain.

Syzkaller robot reported KCSAN tripping over the
ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_WRITER(p->on_rq) in __block_task().
The report noted that both pick_next_task_fair() and try_to_wake_up()
were concurrently trying to write to the same p->on_rq, violating the
assertion -- even though both paths hold rq->__lock.
The logical consequence is that both code paths end up holding a
different rq->__lock. And looking through ttwu(), this is possible
when the __block_task() 'p->on_rq = 0' store is visible to the ttwu()
'p->on_rq' load, which then assumes the task is not queued and
continues to migrate it.
Rearrange things such that __block_task() releases @p with the store
and no code thereafter will use @p again.

In the sched_ext built-in idle CPU selection logic, when handling a
WF_SYNC wakeup, we always attempt to migrate the task to the waker's
CPU, as the waker is expected to yield the CPU after waking the task.
However, it may be preferable to keep the task on its previous CPU if
the waker's CPU is cache-affine.
The same approach is also used by the fair class and in other scx
schedulers, like scx_rusty and scx_bpfland.
Therefore, apply the same logic to the built-in idle CPU selection
policy as well.

As described in commit b07996c7abac ("sched_ext: Don't hold
scx_tasks_lock for too long"), we're doing a cond_resched() every 32
calls to scx_task_iter_next() to avoid RCU and other stalls. That commit
also added a cpu_relax() to the codepath where we drop and reacquire the
lock, but as Waiman described in [0], cpu_relax() should only be
necessary in busy loops to avoid pounding on a cacheline (or to allow a
hypertwin to more fully utilize a core).
Let's remove the unnecessary cpu_relax().

Let's define the "scheduling context" as all the scheduler state
in task_struct for the task chosen to run, which we'll call the
donor task, and the "execution context" as all state required to
actually run the task.
Currently both are intertwined in task_struct. We want to
logically split these such that we can use the scheduling
context of the donor task selected to be scheduled, but use
the execution context of a different task to actually be run.
To this purpose, introduce rq->donor field to point to the
task_struct chosen from the runqueue by the scheduler, and will
be used for scheduler state, and preserve rq->curr to indicate
the execution context of the task that will actually be run.
This patch introduces the donor field as a union with curr, so it
doesn't cause the contexts to be split yet, but adds the logic to
handle everything separately.

commit 223baf9d17f25 ("sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid")
introduced a per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid), which keeps
a reference to the concurrency id allocated for each CPU. This reference
expires shortly after a 100ms delay.
These per-CPU references keep the per-mm-cid data cache-local in
situations where threads are running at least once on each CPU within
each 100ms window, thus keeping the per-cpu reference alive.
However, intermittent workloads behaving in bursts spaced by more than
100ms on each CPU exhibit bad cache locality and degraded performance
compared to purely per-cpu data indexing, because concurrency IDs are
allocated over various CPUs and cores, therefore losing cache locality
of the associated data.
Introduce the following changes to improve per-mm-cid cache locality:
- Add a "recent_cid" field to the per-mm/cpu mm_cid structure to keep
track of which mm_cid value was last used, and use it as a hint to
attempt re-allocating the same concurrency ID the next time this
mm/cpu needs to allocate a concurrency ID,
- Add a per-mm CPUs allowed mask, which keeps track of the union of
CPUs allowed for all threads belonging to this mm. This cpumask is
only set during the lifetime of the mm, never cleared, so it
represents the union of all the CPUs allowed since the beginning of
the mm lifetime (note that the mm_cpumask() is really arch-specific
and tailored to the TLB flush needs, and is thus _not_ a viable
approach for this),
- Add a per-mm nr_cpus_allowed to keep track of the weight of the
per-mm CPUs allowed mask (for fast access),
- Add a per-mm max_nr_cid to keep track of the highest number of
concurrency IDs allocated for the mm. This is used for expanding the
concurrency ID allocation within the upper bound defined by:
min(mm->nr_cpus_allowed, mm->mm_users)
When the next unused CID value reaches this threshold, stop trying
to expand the cid allocation and use the first available cid value
instead.
Spreading allocation to use all the cid values within the range
[ 0, min(mm->nr_cpus_allowed, mm->mm_users) - 1 ]
improves cache locality while preserving mm_cid compactness within the
expected user limits,
- In __mm_cid_try_get, only return cid values within the range
[ 0, mm->nr_cpus_allowed ] rather than [ 0, nr_cpu_ids ]. This
prevents allocating cids above the number of allowed cpus in
rare scenarios where cid allocation races with a concurrent
remote-clear of the per-mm/cpu cid. This improvement is made
possible by the addition of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask,
- In sched_mm_cid_migrate_to, use mm->nr_cpus_allowed rather than
t->nr_cpus_allowed. This criterion was really meant to compare
the number of mm->mm_users to the number of CPUs allowed for the
entire mm. Therefore, the prior comparison worked fine when all
threads shared the same CPUs allowed mask, but not so much in
scenarios where those threads have different masks (e.g. each
thread pinned to a single CPU). This improvement is made
possible by the addition of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask.
* Benchmarks
Each thread increments 16kB worth of 8-bit integers in bursts, with
a configurable delay between each thread's execution. Each thread run
one after the other (no threads run concurrently). The order of
thread execution in the sequence is random. The thread execution
sequence begins again after all threads have executed. The 16kB areas
are allocated with rseq_mempool and indexed by either cpu_id, mm_cid
(not cache-local), or cache-local mm_cid. Each thread is pinned to its
own core.
Testing configurations:
8-core/1-L3: Use 8 cores within a single L3
24-core/24-L3: Use 24 cores, 1 core per L3
192-core/24-L3: Use 192 cores (all cores in the system)
384-thread/24-L3: Use 384 HW threads (all HW threads in the system)
Intermittent workload delays between threads: 200ms, 10ms.
Hardware:
CPU(s): 384
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-383
Vendor ID: AuthenticAMD
Model name: AMD EPYC 9654 96-Core Processor
Thread(s) per core: 2

L1i: 6 MiB (192 instances)
L2: 192 MiB (192 instances)

Each result is an average of 5 test runs. The cache-local speedup
is calculated as: (cache-local mm_cid) / (mm_cid).

The memory barrier rmb() in generic idle loop do_idle() function is not
needed, it doesn't order any load instruction, just remove it as needless
rmb() can cause performance impact.
The rmb() was introduced by the tglx/history.git commit f2f1b44c75c4
("[PATCH] Remove RCU abuse in cpu_idle()") to order the loads between
cpu_idle_map and pm_idle. It pairs with wmb() in function cpu_idle_wait().
And then with the removal of cpu_idle_state in function cpu_idle() and
wmb() in function cpu_idle_wait() in commit 783e391b7b5b ("x86: Simplify
cpu_idle_wait"), rmb() no longer has a reason to exist.
After that, commit d16699123434 ("idle: Implement generic idle function")
implemented a generic idle function cpu_idle_loop() which resembles the
functionality found in arch/. And it retained the rmb() in generic idle
loop in file kernel/cpu/idle.c.
And at last, commit cf37b6b48428 ("sched/idle: Move cpu/idle.c to
sched/idle.c") moved cpu/idle.c to sched/idle.c. And commit c1de45ca831a
("sched/idle: Add support for tasks that inject idle") renamed function
cpu_idle_loop() to do_idle().

Sean noted that ever since commit 152e11f6df29 ("sched/fair: Implement
delayed dequeue") KVM's preemption notifiers have started
mis-classifying preemption vs blocking.
Notably p->on_rq is no longer sufficient to determine if a task is
runnable or blocked -- the aforementioned commit introduces tasks that
remain on the runqueue even through they will not run again, and
should be considered blocked for many cases.
Add the task_is_runnable() helper to classify things and audit all
external users of the p->on_rq state. Also add a few comments.
