The normalized values are also recalculated in case the scaling factor
changes.
This patch updates the internally used scheduler tuning values that are
normalized to one cpu in case a user sets new values via sysfs.
Together with patch 2 of this series this allows to let user configured
values scale (or not) to cpu add/remove events taking place later.

As scaling now takes place on all kind of cpu add/remove events a user
that configures values via proc should be able to configure if his set

As the comments state that log2 was just a second guess that worked the
interface is not just designed for on/off, but to choose a scaling type.
Currently this allows none, log and linear, but more important it allwos

83f9ac removed a call to effective_prio() in wake_up_new_task(), which
leads to tasks running at MAX_PRIO.
This is caused by the idle thread being set to MAX_PRIO before forking
off init. O(1) used that to make sure idle was always preempted, CFS
uses check_preempt_curr_idle() for that so we can savely remove this bit
of legacy code.

When setting the weight for a per-cpu task-group, we have to put in a
phantom weight when there is no work on that cpu, otherwise we'll not
service that cpu when new work gets placed there until we again update
the per-cpu weights.
We used to add these phantom weights to the total, so that the idle
per-cpu shares don't get inflated, this however causes the non-idle
parts to get deflated, causing unexpected weight distibutions.
Reverse this, so that the non-idle shares are correct but the idle
shares are inflated.

Since (e761b77: cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce cpu_active_map and redo
sched domain managment) we have cpu_active_mask which is suppose to rule
scheduler migration and load-balancing, except it never (fully) did.
The particular problem being solved here is a crash in try_to_wake_up()
where select_task_rq() ends up selecting an offline cpu because
select_task_rq_fair() trusts the sched_domain tree to reflect the
current state of affairs, similarly select_task_rq_rt() trusts the
root_domain.
However, the sched_domains are updated from CPU_DEAD, which is after the
cpu is taken offline and after stop_machine is done. Therefore it can
race perfectly well with code assuming the domains are right.
Cure this by building the domains from cpu_active_mask on
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE.

This is a real fix for problem of utime/stime values decreasing
described in the thread:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/3/522
Now cputime is accounted in the following way:
- {u,s}time in task_struct are increased every time when the thread
is interrupted by a tick (timer interrupt).
- When a thread exits, its {u,s}time are added to signal->{u,s}time,
after adjusted by task_times().
- When all threads in a thread_group exits, accumulated {u,s}time
(and also c{u,s}time) in signal struct are added to c{u,s}time
in signal struct of the group's parent.
So {u,s}time in task struct are "raw" tick count, while
{u,s}time and c{u,s}time in signal struct are "adjusted" values.
And accounted values are used by:
- task_times(), to get cputime of a thread:
This function returns adjusted values that originates from raw
{u,s}time and scaled by sum_exec_runtime that accounted by CFS.
- thread_group_cputime(), to get cputime of a thread group:
This function returns sum of all {u,s}time of living threads in
the group, plus {u,s}time in the signal struct that is sum of
adjusted cputimes of all exited threads belonged to the group.
The problem is the return value of thread_group_cputime(),
because it is mixed sum of "raw" value and "adjusted" value:
group's {u,s}time = foreach(thread){{u,s}time} + exited({u,s}time)
This misbehavior can break {u,s}time monotonicity.
Assume that if there is a thread that have raw values greater
than adjusted values (e.g. interrupted by 1000Hz ticks 50 times
but only runs 45ms) and if it exits, cputime will decrease (e.g.
-5ms).
To fix this, we could do:
group's {u,s}time = foreach(t){task_times(t)} + exited({u,s}time)
But task_times() contains hard divisions, so applying it for
every thread should be avoided.
This patch fixes the above problem in the following way:
- Modify thread's exit (= __exit_signal()) not to use task_times().
It means {u,s}time in signal struct accumulates raw values instead
of adjusted values. As the result it makes thread_group_cputime()
to return pure sum of "raw" values.
- Introduce a new function thread_group_times(*task, *utime, *stime)
that converts "raw" values of thread_group_cputime() to "adjusted"
values, in same calculation procedure as task_times().
- Modify group's exit (= wait_task_zombie()) to use this introduced
thread_group_times(). It make c{u,s}time in signal struct to
have adjusted values like before this patch.
- Replace some thread_group_cputime() by thread_group_times().
This replacements are only applied where conveys the "adjusted"
cputime to users, and where already uses task_times() near by it.
(i.e. sys_times(), getrusage(), and /proc/<PID>/stat.)
This patch have a positive side effect:
- Before this patch, if a group contains many short-life threads
(e.g. runs 0.9ms and not interrupted by ticks), the group's
cputime could be invisible since thread's cputime was accumulated
after adjusted: imagine adjustment function as adj(ticks, runtime),
{adj(0, 0.9) + adj(0, 0.9) + ....} = {0 + 0 + ....} = 0.
After this patch it will not happen because the adjustment is
applied after accumulated.
v2:
- remove if()s, put new variables into signal_struct.

Use of msecs_to_jiffies() for nsecs_to_cputime() have some
problems:
- The type of msecs_to_jiffies()'s argument is unsigned int, so
it cannot convert msecs greater than UINT_MAX = about 49.7 days.
- msecs_to_jiffies() returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET if MSB of argument
is set, assuming that input was negative value. So it cannot
convert msecs greater than INT_MAX = about 24.8 days too.
This patch defines a new function nsecs_to_jiffies() that can

Functions task_{u,s}time() are called in pair in almost all
cases. However task_stime() is implemented to call task_utime()
from its inside, so such paired calls run task_utime() twice.
It means we do heavy divisions (div_u64 + do_div) twice to get
utime and stime which can be obtained at same time by one set
of divisions.
This patch introduces a function task_times(*tsk, *utime,
*stime) to retrieve utime and stime at once in better, optimized
way.

Date: Thu Aug 23 15:18:02 2007 +0200
It only changed the type of return value, but not the
implementation. As the result the granularity of task_s/utime()
is still that of clock_t, not that of cputime_t.
So using task_s/utime() in __exit_signal() makes values
accumulated to the signal struct to be rounded and coarse
grained.
This patch removes casts to clock_t in task_u/stime(), to keep
granularity of cputime_t over the calculation.

So, we make this an array of cpumask_var_t instead: this is the

Hence we add alloc_sched_domains() and free_sched_domains()

f685ceacab causes boot time
PREEMPT_DEBUG complaints.
[ 4.590699] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: rmmod/1314
[ 4.593043] caller is task_hot+0x86/0xd0
Since kthread_bind() messes with scheduler internals, move the
body to sched.c, and lock the runqueue.

I got a boot crash when forcing cpumasks offstack on 32 bit,
because find_new_ilb() returned 3 on my UP system (nohz.cpu_mask
wasn't zeroed).
AFAICT the others need to be zeroed too: only
nohz.ilb_grp_nohz_mask is initialized before use.

This patch updates percpu related symbols under kernel/ and mm/ such
that percpu symbols are unique and don't clash with local symbols.
This serves two purposes of decreasing the possibility of global
percpu symbol collision and allowing dropping per_cpu__ prefix from
percpu symbols.
* kernel/lockdep.c: s/lock_stats/cpu_lock_stats/
* kernel/sched.c: s/init_rq_rt/init_rt_rq_var/ (any better idea?)
s/sched_group_cpus/sched_groups/
* kernel/softirq.c: s/ksoftirqd/run_ksoftirqd/a
* kernel/softlockup.c: s/(*)_timestamp/softlockup_\1_ts/
s/watchdog_task/softlockup_watchdog/
s/timestamp/ts/ for local variables
* kernel/time/timer_stats: s/lookup_lock/tstats_lookup_lock/
* mm/slab.c: s/reap_work/slab_reap_work/
s/reap_node/slab_reap_node/
* mm/vmstat.c: local variable changed to avoid collision with vmstat_work
Partly based on Rusty Russell's "alloc_percpu: rename percpu vars
which cause name clashes" patch.

CPU time of a guest is always accounted in 'user' time
without concern for the nice value of its counterpart
process although the guest is scheduled under the nice
value.
This patch fixes the defect and accounts cpu time of
a niced guest in 'nice' time as same as a niced process.
And also the patch adds 'guest_nice' to cpuacct. The
value provides niced guest cpu time which is like 'nice'
to 'user'.

This patch restores the effectiveness of LAST_BUDDY in preventing
pgsql+oltp from collapsing due to wakeup preemption. It also
switches LAST_BUDDY to exclusively do what it does best, namely
mitigate the effects of aggressive wakeup preemption, which
improves vmark throughput markedly, and restores mysql+oltp
scalability.
Since buddies are about scalability, enable them beginning at the
point where we begin expanding sched_latency, namely
sched_nr_latency. Previously, buddies were cleared aggressively,
which seriously reduced their effectiveness. Not clearing
aggressively however, produces a small drop in mysql+oltp
throughput immediately after peak, indicating that LAST_BUDDY is
actually doing some harm. This is right at the point where X on the
desktop in competition with another load wants low latency service.
Ergo, do not enable until we need to scale.
To mitigate latency induced by buddies, or by a task just missing
wakeup preemption, check latency at tick time.
Last hunk prevents buddies from stymieing BALANCE_NEWIDLE via
CACHE_HOT_BUDDY.

In try_to_wake_up(), we update the runqueue clock, but
select_task_rq() may select a different runqueue than the one we
updated, leaving the new runqueue's clock stale for a bit.
This patch cures occasional huge latencies reported by latencytop
when coming out of idle on a mostly idle NO_HZ box.

It makes sense to do IOWAIT when someone is blocked
due to IO throttle, as suggested by Kame and Peter.
There is an old comment for not doing IOWAIT on throttle,
however it has been mismatching the code for a long time.
If we stop accounting IOWAIT for 2.6.32, it could be an
undesirable behavior change. So restore the io_schedule.
