9a05300da0 ANDROID: sched/tune: Move SchedTune cpu API into UtilClamp wrappers
The SchedTune CPU boosting API is currently used from sugov_get_util()
to get the boosted utilization and to pass it into schedutil_cpu_util().

When UtilClamp is in use instead we call schedutil_cpu_util() by
passing in just the CFS utilization and the clamping is done internally
on the aggregated CFS+RT utilization for FREQUENCY_UTIL calls.

This asymmetry is not required moreover, schedutil code is polluted by
non-mainline SchedTune code.

Wrap SchedTune API call related to cpu utilization boosting with a more
generic and mainlinish UtilClamp call:

 - uclamp_rq_util_with(cpu, util, p)  <= boosted_cpu_util(cpu)

This new API is already used in schedutil_cpu_util() to clamp the
aggregated RT+CFS utilization on FREQUENCY_UTIL calls.

Move the cpu boosting into uclamp_rq_util_with() so that we remove any
SchedTune specific bit from kernel/sched/cpufreq_schedutil.c.

Get rid of the no more required boosted_cpu_util(cpu) method and replace
it with a stune_util(cpu, util) which signature is better aligned with
its uclamp_rq_util_with(cpu, util, p) counterpart.

502bd15144 sched/fair: Fix low cpu usage with high throttling by removing expiration of cpu-local slices
commit de53fd7aedb100f03e5d2231cfce0e4993282425 upstream.

It has been observed, that highly-threaded, non-cpu-bound applications
running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints can hit a high percentage of
periods throttled while simultaneously not consuming the allocated
amount of quota. This use case is typical of user-interactive non-cpu
bound applications, such as those running in kubernetes or mesos when
run on multiple cpu cores.

This has been root caused to cpu-local run queue being allocated per cpu
bandwidth slices, and then not fully using that slice within the period.
At which point the slice and quota expires. This expiration of unused
slice results in applications not being able to utilize the quota for
which they are allocated.

The non-expiration of per-cpu slices was recently fixed by
'commit 512ac999d2 ("sched/fair: Fix bandwidth timer clock drift
condition")'. Prior to that it appears that this had been broken since
at least 'commit 51f2176d74 ("sched/fair: Fix unlocked reads of some
cfs_b->quota/period")' which was introduced in v3.16-rc1 in 2014. That
added the following conditional which resulted in slices never being
expired.

if (cfs_rq->runtime_expires != cfs_b->runtime_expires) {
	/* extend local deadline, drift is bounded above by 2 ticks */
	cfs_rq->runtime_expires += TICK_NSEC;

Because this was broken for nearly 5 years, and has recently been fixed
and is now being noticed by many users running kubernetes
(https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/67577) it is my opinion
that the mechanisms around expiring runtime should be removed
altogether.

This allows quota already allocated to per-cpu run-queues to live longer
than the period boundary. This allows threads on runqueues that do not
use much CPU to continue to use their remaining slice over a longer
period of time than cpu.cfs_period_us. However, this helps prevent the
above condition of hitting throttling while also not fully utilizing
your cpu quota.

This theoretically allows a machine to use slightly more than its
allotted quota in some periods. This overflow would be bounded by the
remaining quota left on each per-cpu runqueueu. This is typically no
more than min_cfs_rq_runtime=1ms per cpu. For CPU bound tasks this will
change nothing, as they should theoretically fully utilize all of their
quota in each period. For user-interactive tasks as described above this
provides a much better user/application experience as their cpu
utilization will more closely match the amount they requested when they
hit throttling. This means that cpu limits no longer strictly apply per
period for non-cpu bound applications, but that they are still accurate
over longer timeframes.

This greatly improves performance of high-thread-count, non-cpu bound
applications with low cfs_quota_us allocation on high-core-count
machines. In the case of an artificial testcase (10ms/100ms of quota on
80 CPU machine), this commit resulted in almost 30x performance
improvement, while still maintaining correct cpu quota restrictions.
That testcase is available at https://github.com/indeedeng/fibtest.

7fc96cd2b0 sched/fair: Fix "runnable_avg_yN_inv" not used warnings
[ Upstream commit 509466b7d480bc5d22e90b9fbe6122ae0e2fbe39 ]

runnable_avg_yN_inv[] is only used in kernel/sched/pelt.c but was
included in several other places because they need other macros all
came from kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h which was generated by
Documentation/scheduler/sched-pelt. As the result, it causes compilation
a lot of warnings,

  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  kernel/sched/sched-pelt.h:4:18: warning: 'runnable_avg_yN_inv' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
  ...

Silence it by appending the __maybe_unused attribute for it, so all
generated variables and macros can still be kept in the same file.

61dd81300c ANDROID: sched: Clean-up SchedTune documentation
SchedTune's documentation file hasn't been updated in a while and
occasionally contains stale informations in a few places.

Clean-up the doc file by:
 - removing the references to the now defunct sched-freq;
 - replacing references to SCHED_LOAD_SCALE by SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE;
 - removing the statement that the wake-up path is not boost-aware;
 - removing reference to negative boosting;
 - removing 'motivation' paragraphs that aren't really relevant anymore;
 - and making sure to fit all the text in 80 chars.

No fundamental changes about the core of the explanations.

68dbff9ce9 ANDROID: sched: fair/tune: Add schedtune with cgroups interface
Schedtune is the framework we use in Android to allow userspace
task classification and provides a CGroup controller which has two
attributes per group.

 * schedtune.boost
 * schedtune.prefer_idle

Schedtune itself provides task and CPU utilization boosting. EAS in
the fair scheduler uses boosted utilization and prefer_idle status to
control the algorithm used for wakeup task placement.

Boosting:

The task utilization signal, which is derived from PELT signals and
properly scaled to be architecture and frequency invariant, is used by
EAS as an estimation of the task requirements in terms of CPU bandwidth.

Schedtune allows userspace to assign a percentage boost to each group
and this boost is used to calculate an additional utilization margin.
The margin added to the original utilization is:
 1. computed based on the "boosting strategy" in use
 2. proportional to boost value defined by the "taskgroup" value

The boosted signal is used by EAS for task placement, and boosted CPU
utilization (if boosted tasks are running) is given when schedutil
requests utilization.

Prefer_idle:

When this attribute is 1 for a group, this is used as a signal from
userspace that tasks in this group need to be serviced with the
minimum latency possible.

Previous versions of schedtune had much more functionality around
allowing a more tuneable tradeoff between performand and energy,
however this has not been used a lot up until now. If necessary,
we can easily resurrect it based upon old code.

3a09b8d45b sched/Documentation/sched-rt-group: Fix incorrect example
I feel that the example given in the document to show the possibility
of task starvation of configurable period is wrong.

The example says group A and B both have 50% bandwidth, and a while (1)
loop in A will run for the full period of B and can starve B's tasks.

So I think the runtime of group A should be 50000us, then the period and
runtime of group B should be 50000us and 25000us.

b56bfc6cd1 Documentation/scheduler/sched-deadline.txt: Improve and clarify AC bits
Admission control is of key importance for SCHED_DEADLINE, since
it guarantees system schedulability (or tells us something about
the degree of guarantees we can provide to the user).

This patch improves and clarifies bits and pieces regarding AC,
both for UP and SMP systems.

0a0fca9d83 sched: Rename sched.c as sched/core.c in comments and Documentation
Most of the stuff from kernel/sched.c was moved to kernel/sched/core.c long time
back and the comments/Documentation never got updated.

I figured it out when I was going through sched-domains.txt and so thought of
fixing it globally.

I haven't crossed check if the stuff that is referenced in sched/core.c by all
these files is still present and hasn't changed as that wasn't the motive behind
this patch.

8e7fbcbc22 sched: Remove stale power aware scheduling remnants and dysfunctional knobs
It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power
aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending
patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ...
so remove it to make space free for something better.

There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first
and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology
levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a
state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to
master and almost nobody does.

Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it
means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either
under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if
there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of
it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads.

So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea
even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs
on every node of the topology.

There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single
3 state knob:

 sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto }

where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things
like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw
exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no
progress on it in the past many months.

Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs
is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at
fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable
state.

Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring
people who care to come forward once again and work on a
coherent replacement.

30fd049afc sched: Remove sched_switch
Currently we don't utilize the sched_switch field anymore.

But, simply removing sched_switch field from the middle of the
sched_stat output will break tools.

So, to stay compatible we hardcode it to zero and remove the
field from the scheduler data structures.

Update the schedstat documentation accordingly.
