On a 2*6*2 machine something like:
taskset -c 3-11 bash -c 'for ((i=0;i<9;i++)) do while :; do :; done & done'
_should_ result in 9 busy CPUs, each running 1 task.
However it didn't quite work reliably, most of the time one cpu of the
second socket (6-11) would be idle and one cpu of the first socket
(0-5) would have two tasks on it.
The group_imb logic is supposed to deal with this and detect when a
particular group is imbalanced (like in our case, 0-2 are idle but 3-5
will have 4 tasks on it).
The detection phase needed a bit of a tweak as it was too weak and
required more than 2 avg weight tasks difference between idle and busy
cpus in the group which won't trigger for our test-case. So cure that
to be one or more avg task weight difference between cpus.
Once the detection phase worked, it was then defeated by the f_b_g()
tests trying to avoid ping-pongs. In particular, this_load >= max_load
triggered because the pulling cpu (the (first) idle cpu in on the
second socket, say 6) would find this_load to be 5 and max_load to be
4 (there'd be 5 tasks running on our socket and only 4 on the other
socket).

note_interrupt wants to be called with the combined result of all

then the last handler might return IRQ_NONE often enough to trigger
the spurious dectector which turns off a perfectly fine working

CLOCK_MONOTONIC stops while the system is in suspend. This is because
to applications system suspend is invisible. However, there is a
growing set of applications that are wanting to be suspend-aware,
but do not want to deal with the complications of CLOCK_REALTIME
(which might jump around if settimeofday is called).
For these applications, I propose a new clockid: CLOCK_BOOTTIME.
CLOCK_BOOTTIME is idential to CLOCK_MONOTONIC, except it also
includes any time spent in suspend.
This patch add hrtimer base for CLOCK_BOOTTIME, using
get_monotonic_boottime/ktime_get_boottime, to allow
in kernel users to set timers against.

The hrtimer code is written mainly with CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC
in mind. These are clockids 0 and 1 resepctively. However, if we are
to introduce any new hrtimer bases, using new clockids, we have to skip
the cputimers (clockids 2,3) as well as other clockids that may not impelement
timers.
This patch adds a little bit of indirection between the clockid and
the base, so that we can extend the base by one when we add
a new clockid at number 7 or so.

The runtime expansion of nr_irqs does not take into account that
bitmap_find_next_zero_area() returns "start" + size in case the search
for an matching zero area fails. That results in a start value which
can be completely off and is not covered by the following
expand_nr_irqs() and possibly outside of the absolute limit. But we
use it without further checking.
Use IRQ_BITMAP_BITS as the limit for the bitmap search and expand
nr_irqs when the start bit is beyond nr_irqs. So start is always
pointing to the correct area in the bitmap. nr_irqs is just the limit
for irq enumerations, not the real limit for the irq space.

With the chip.end() function gone we might run into a situation where
a poll call runs and the real interrupt comes in, sees IRQ_INPROGRESS
and disables the line. That might be a perfect working one, which will
then be masked forever.
So mark them polled while the poll runs. When the real handler sees
IRQ_INPROGRESS it checks the poll flag and waits for the polling to
complete. Add the necessary amount of sanity checks to it to avoid
deadlocks.

There is no point in polling disabled lines.
percpu does not make sense at all because we only poll on the cpu

While rumaging through arch code I found that there are a few
workarounds which deal with the fact that the initial affinity setting
from request_irq() copies the mask into irq_data->affinity before the
chip code is called. In the normal path we unconditionally copy the
mask when the chip code returns 0.
Copy after the code is called and add a return code
IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY for the chip functions, which prevents the
copy. That way we see the real mask when the chip function decided to
truncate it further as some arches do. IRQ_SET_MASK_OK is 0, which is
the current behaviour.

We face more and more the requirement to expand nr_irqs at
runtime. The reason are irq expanders which can not be detected in the
early boot stage. So we speculate nr_irqs to have enough room. Further
Xen needs extra irq numbers and we really want to avoid adding more
"detection" code into the early boot. There is no real good reason why
we need to limit nr_irqs at early boot.

With CONFIG_SHIRQ_DEBUG=y we call a newly installed interrupt handler
in request_threaded_irq().
The original implementation (commit a304e1b8) called the handler
_BEFORE_ it was installed, but that caused problems with handlers
calling disable_irq_nosync(). See commit 377bf1e4.
It's braindead in the first place to call disable_irq_nosync in shared
handlers, but ....
Moving this call after we installed the handler looks innocent, but it
is very subtle broken on SMP.
Interrupt handlers rely on the fact, that the irq core prevents
reentrancy.
Now this debug call violates that promise because we run the handler
w/o the IRQ_INPROGRESS protection - which we cannot apply here because
that would result in a possibly forever masked interrupt line.
A concurrent real hardware interrupt on a different CPU results in
handler reentrancy and can lead to complete wreckage, which was
unfortunately observed in reality and took a fricking long time to
debug.
Leave the code here for now. We want this debug feature, but that's
not easy to fix. We really should get rid of those
disable_irq_nosync() abusers and remove that function completely.

Lars-Peter Clausen pointed out:
I stumbled upon this while looking through the existing archs using
SPARSE_IRQ. Even with SPARSE_IRQ the NR_IRQS is still the upper
limit for the number of IRQs.
Both PXA and MMP set NR_IRQS to IRQ_BOARD_START, with
IRQ_BOARD_START being the number of IRQs used by the core.
In various machine files the nr_irqs field of the ARM machine
defintion struct is then set to "IRQ_BOARD_START + NR_BOARD_IRQS".
As a result "nr_irqs" will greater then NR_IRQS which then again
causes the "allocated_irqs" bitmap in the core irq code to be
accessed beyond its size overwriting unrelated data.
The core code really misses a sanity check there.
This went unnoticed so far as by chance the compiler/linker places
data behind that bitmap which gets initialized later on those affected
platforms.
So the obvious fix would be to add a sanity check in early_irq_init()
and break all affected platforms. Though that check wants to be
backported to stable as well, which will require to fix all known
problematic platforms and probably some more yet not known ones as
well. Lots of churn.
A way simpler solution is to allocate a slightly larger bitmap and
avoid the whole churn w/o breaking anything. Add a few warnings when
an arch returns utter crap.

This kernel patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on
container groups (cgroups). This is for use in per-cpu mode only.
The cgroup to monitor is passed as a file descriptor in the pid
argument to the syscall. The file descriptor must be opened to
the cgroup name in the cgroup filesystem. For instance, if the
cgroup name is foo and cgroupfs is mounted in /cgroup, then the
file descriptor is opened to /cgroup/foo. Cgroup mode is
activated by passing PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP in the flags argument
to the syscall.
For instance to measure in cgroup foo on CPU1 assuming
cgroupfs is mounted under /cgroup:
struct perf_event_attr attr;
int cgroup_fd, fd;
cgroup_fd = open("/cgroup/foo", O_RDONLY);
fd = perf_event_open(&attr, cgroup_fd, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP);
close(cgroup_fd);

It was possible to call pmu::start() on an already running event. In
particular this lead so some wreckage as the hrtimer events would
re-initialize active timers.
This was due to throttled events being activated again by scheduling.
Scheduling in a context would add and force start events, resulting in
running events with a possible throttle status. The next tick to hit
that task will then try to unthrottle the event and call ->start() on
an already running event.

The wake_up_process() call in ptrace_detach() is spurious and not
interlocked with the tracee state. IOW, the tracee could be running or
sleeping in any place in the kernel by the time wake_up_process() is
called. This can lead to the tracee waking up unexpectedly which can be
dangerous.
The wake_up is spurious and should be removed but for now reduce its
toxicity by only waking up if the tracee is in TRACED or STOPPED state.
This bug can possibly be used as an attack vector. I don't think it
will take too much effort to come up with an attack which triggers oops
somewhere. Most sleeps are wrapped in condition test loops and should
be safe but we have quite a number of places where sleep and wakeup
conditions are expected to be interlocked. Although the window of
opportunity is tiny, ptrace can be used by non-privileged users and with
some loading the window can definitely be extended and exploited.

When the fuction graph tracer starts, it needs to make a special
stack for each task to save the real return values of the tasks.
All running tasks have this stack created, as well as any new
tasks.
On CPU hot plug, the new idle task will allocate a stack as well
when init_idle() is called. The problem is that cpu hotplug does
not create a new idle_task. Instead it uses the idle task that
existed when the cpu went down.
ftrace_graph_init_task() will add a new ret_stack to the task
that is given to it. Because a clone will make the task
have a stack of its parent it does not check if the task's
ret_stack is already NULL or not. When the CPU hotplug code
starts a CPU up again, it will allocate a new stack even
though one already existed for it.
The solution is to treat the idle_task specially. In fact, the
function_graph code already does, just not at init_idle().
Instead of using the ftrace_graph_init_task() for the idle task,
which that function expects the task to be a clone, have a
separate ftrace_graph_init_idle_task(). Also, we will create a
per_cpu ret_stack that is used by the idle task. When we call
ftrace_graph_init_idle_task() it will check if the idle task's
ret_stack is NULL, if it is, then it will assign it the per_cpu
ret_stack.

FTRACE_SYSCALLS would create events for each and every system call, even
if it had failed to map the system call's name with it's number. This
resulted in a number of events being created that would not behave as
expected.
This could happen, for example, on architectures who's symbol names are
unusual and will not match the system call name. It could also happen
with system calls which were mapped to sys_ni_syscall.
This patch changes the default system call number in the metadata to -1.
If the system call name from the metadata is not successfully mapped to
a system call number during boot, than the event initialisation routine
will now return an error, preventing the event from being created.

When creating a new filter, instead of allocating the filter to the
event call first and then processing the filter, it is easier to
process a temporary filter and then just swap it with the call filter.
By doing this, it simplifies the code.
A filter is allocated and processed, when it is done, it is
swapped with the call filter, synchronize_sched() is called to make
sure all callers are done with the old filter (filters are called
with premption disabled), and then the old filter is freed.

There are many cases that a filter will contain multiple ORs or

to the next compare can be a waste.
If there are several ORs or ANDs together, fold them into a single

Currently the filter_match_preds() requires a stack to push
and pop the preds to determine if the filter matches the record or not.
This has two drawbacks:
1) It requires a stack to store state information. As this is done
in fast paths we can't allocate the storage for this stack, and
we can't use a global as it must be re-entrant. The stack is stored
on the kernel stack and this greatly limits how many preds we
may allow.
2) All conditions are calculated even when a short circuit exists.
a || b will always calculate a and b even though a was determined
to be true.
Using a tree we can walk a constant structure that will save
the state as we go. The algorithm is simply:
pred = root;
do {
switch (move) {
case MOVE_DOWN:
if (OR or AND) {
pred = left;
continue;
}
if (pred == root)
break;
match = pred->fn();
pred = pred->parent;
move = left child ? MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT : MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT;
continue;
case MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT:
/* Only OR or AND can be a parent */
if (match && OR || !match && AND) {
/* short circuit */
if (pred == root)
break;
pred = pred->parent;
move = left child ?
MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT :
MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT;
continue;
}
pred = pred->right;
move = MOVE_DOWN;
continue;
case MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT:
if (pred == root)
break;
pred = pred->parent;
move = left child ? MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT : MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT;
continue;
}
done = 1;
} while (!done);
This way there's no strict limit to how many preds we allow
and it also will short circuit the logical operations when possible.

Currently we allocate an array of pointers to filter_preds, and then
allocate a separate filter_pred for each item in the array.
This adds slight overhead in the filters as it needs to derefernce
twice to get to the op condition.

as well as helps on the cache footprint.

By separating out the reseting of the filter->n_preds to zero from

For every filter that is made, we create predicates to hold every
operation within the filter. We have a max of 32 predicates that we
can hold. Currently, we allocate all 32 even if we only need to
use one.
Part of the reason we do this is that the filter can be used at
any moment by any event. Fortunately, the filter is only used
with preemption disabled. By reseting the count of preds used "n_preds"
to zero, then performing a synchronize_sched(), we can safely
free and reallocate a new array of preds.
