The 'idle_balance()' function hasn't existed for years, and there's no
load_balance_newidle() either - both are sched_balance_newidle() today.

Standardize scheduler load-balancing function names on the
sched_balance_() prefix.
Also use 'dst' instead of 'idlest', because it's not really
true that we return the 'idlest' group or CPU, we sort by
idle-exit latency and only return the idlest CPUs from the
lowest-latency set of CPUs.
The true 'idlest' CPUs often remain idle for a long time
and are never returned as long as the system is under-loaded.

sched_balance_find_dst_group_cpu()
Standardize scheduler load-balancing function names on the
sched_balance_() prefix.
Also use 'dst' instead of 'idlest': while historically correct,
today it's not really true anymore that we return the 'idlest'
group or CPU, we sort by idle-exit latency and only return the

Make two naming changes:
1)
Standardize scheduler load-balancing function names on the
sched_balance_() prefix.
2)
Similar to find_busiest_queue(), the find_busiest_group() naming
has become a bit of a misnomer: the 'busiest' qualifier to this
function was historically correct but in the current code
in quite a few cases we will not pick the 'busiest' group - but the best
(possible) group we can balance from based on a complex set of
constraints.
So name it a bit more neutrally, similar to the 'src/dst' nomenclature
we are already using when moving tasks between runqueues, and also
use the sched_balance_ prefix: sched_balance_find_src_group().

The find_busiest_queue() naming has two small quirks:
- Scheduler functions that deal with runqueues usually have a rq_ prefix
or _rq postfix, but this function has neither.
- Plus the 'busiest' qualifier to this function was historically
correct, but has become somewhat of a misnomer: in quite a few
cases we will not pick the busiest runqueue - but the best
(possible) runqueue we can balance tasks from. So name it a
bit more neutrally, similar to the 'src/dst' nomenclature
we are already using when moving tasks between runqueues.
To fix both quirks, and to standardize scheduler load-balancing
function names on the sched_balance_() prefix, rename the
function to sched_balance_find_src_rq().

Standardize scheduler load-balancing function names on the
sched_balance_() prefix.
Also load_balance() has become somewhat of a misnomer: historically
it was the first and primary load-balancing function that was called,
but with the introduction of sched domains, it's become a lower
layer function that balances runqueues.
Rename it to sched_balance_rq() accordingly.

- Standardize on prefixing scheduler-internal functions defined
in <linux/sched.h> with sched_*() prefix. scheduler_tick() was
the only function using the scheduler_ prefix. Harmonize it.
- The other reason to rename it is the NOHZ scheduler tick
handling functions are already named sched_tick_*().
Make the 'git grep sched_tick' more meaningful.

run_rebalance_domains() is a misnomer, as it doesn't only
run rebalance_domains(), but since the introduction of the
NOHZ code it also runs nohz_idle_balance().
Rename it to sched_balance_softirq(), reflecting its more

* run_rebalance_domains is triggered when needed from the scheduler tick.

So the scheduler has two such comment blocks, with '=' used as a double underline:
/*

'========' also happens to be a Git conflict marker, throwing off a simple

The cpu_idle_type enum has the confusingly inverted property
that 'not idle' is 1, and 'idle' is '0'.
This resulted in a number of unnecessary complications in the code.
Reverse the order, remove the CPU_NOT_IDLE type, and convert
all code to a natural boolean form.
It's much more readable:
- enum cpu_idle_type idle = this_rq->idle_balance ?
- CPU_IDLE : CPU_NOT_IDLE;
-
+ enum cpu_idle_type idle = this_rq->idle_balance;
--------------------------------
- if (env->idle == CPU_NOT_IDLE || !busiest->sum_nr_running)
+ if (!env->idle || !busiest->sum_nr_running)
--------------------------------
And gets rid of the double negation in these usages:
- if (env->idle != CPU_NOT_IDLE && env->src_rq->nr_running <= 1)
+ if (env->idle && env->src_rq->nr_running <= 1)
Furthermore, this makes code much more obvious where there's
differentiation between CPU_IDLE and CPU_NEWLY_IDLE.

iterating [CPU_MAX_IDLE_TYPES] arrays in show_schedstat()
show_schedstat() output breaks and doesn't print all entries
if the ordering of the definitions in 'enum cpu_idle_type' is changed,
because show_schedstat() assumes that 'CPU_IDLE' is 0.
Fix it before we change the definition order & values.

'atomic_t sched_balance_running' flag
The 'balancing' spinlock added in:
08c183f31bdb ("[PATCH] sched: add option to serialize load balancing")
... is taken when the SD_SERIALIZE flag is set in a domain, but in reality it
is a glorified global atomic flag serializing the load-balancing of
those domains.
It doesn't have any explicit locking semantics per se: we just
spin_trylock() it.
Turn it into a ... global atomic flag. This makes it more
clear what is going on here, and reduces overhead and code
size a bit:
# kernel/sched/fair.o: [x86-64 defconfig]
text data bss dec hex filename
60730 2721 104 63555 f843 fair.o.before
60718 2721 104 63543 f837 fair.o.after
Also document the flag a bit.
No change in functionality intended.

Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
of FPU switching - which also generates better code
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
slightly better code
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options

logic

Pull x86 entry update from Thomas Gleixner:
"A single update for the x86 entry code:
The current CR3 handling for kernel page table isolation in the
paranoid return paths which are relevant for #NMI, #MCE, #VC, #DB and
#DF is unconditionally writing CR3 with the value retrieved on
exception entry.
In the vast majority of cases when returning to the kernel this is a
pointless exercise because CR3 was not modified on exception entry.
The only situation where this is necessary is when the exception
interrupts a entry from user before switching to kernel CR3 or
interrupts an exit to user after switching back to user CR3.
As CR3 writes can be expensive on some systems this becomes measurable
overhead with high frequency #NMIs such as perf.
Avoid this overhead by checking the CR3 value, which was saved on
entry, and write it back to CR3 only when it is a user CR3"

Pull x86 FRED support from Thomas Gleixner:
"Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED).
FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most
of the technical nightmares which IDT exposes:
1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved
in nested exception scenarios.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested
exceptions as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on
each entry which requires a massive effort in the low level entry
of #NMI code to handle this.
3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user
which makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs
to be especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI.
4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which
is a problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a
stack trace.
5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment
6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion
on large systems.
7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources
FRED addresses these shortcomings by:
1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save
exception cause registers. This ensures that the meta information
for each exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra
complexity of preserving it in software.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested
exception uses the currently interrupt stack.
3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS
BASE handling which is required to establish kernel context for
per CPU variable access is done in hardware.
4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the
return from NMI.
5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP
6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design
because it uses a central entry points for kernel and user space
and the CPUstores the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt,
syscall) on the entry stack along with the vector number. The
entry code has to demultiplex this information, but this removes
the vector space restriction.
The first hardware implementations will still have the current
restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires
further changes to the local APIC.
7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which
allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the
required local APIC changes are in place.
The series implements the initial FRED support by:
- Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to
accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism.
- Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED
requires to store context and meta information
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have
information pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB.
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE
- Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to
demultiplex the events
- Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary
tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc.
The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs the existing IDT
implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths
like context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the
impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the
extended stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and
therefore have no impact on IDT based systems.
It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED
simulation and as of now there are no outstanding problems"

Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation.
The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:
- It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.
- The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is
in the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology
evaluation.
- The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and
guest specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in
case of XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.
- The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.
- There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing
up the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which
needs to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if
that would be possible.
- The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is
incomprehensible and overly complex and needs to be kept around
after boot instead of completing this right after the APIC
enumeration.
This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:
- Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors
and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform
way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module,
..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead
of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over.
- A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.
- Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries
to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.
- A new registration and admission logic which
- encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
cannot longer fiddle in it
- uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at
registration time
- provides a sane admission logic
- allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run
on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent
sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset
the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command
line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash
scenarios.
- Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and
prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow
tolerated before.
- Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
new interfaces.
This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the
parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV]
handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time.
- Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
segment bitmaps.
This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows
for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.
The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout
due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the
admission logic further"

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer
wheel of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry.
This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
This is wrong in several aspects:
1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is
close to zero.
2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on
a single target CPU
3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead
for dubious value especially under the consideration that the
vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or
rearmed before they expire.
The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on
which they get armed.
This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers
and global timers which do not care about where they expire.
As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they
expire.
- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry
time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU
makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer.
The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to
the point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e.
the number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight
has been established by experimention, but can be adjusted if
needed.
In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU
to avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether
there are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have
global timers to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the
migrator locks the remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can
require to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point
the CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and
it therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its
own timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in
the hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires
first.
This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which
is e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly
more complex idle path.
This has been in development for a couple of years and the final
series has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon
vendors and ran through extensive CI.
There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them
to power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first
time in a mostly idle scenario.
There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific
overloaded netperf test which is currently investigated, but the
rest is either positive or neutral performance wise and positive on
the power management side.
- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware
timers and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes
address a few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the
math and logic wrong.
- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to
automatically adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of
having more incomprehensible command line parameters.
- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place"

Pull clocksource updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for timekeeping and PTP core.
The cross-timestamp mechanism which allows to correlate hardware
clocks uses clocksource pointers for describing the correlation.
That's suboptimal as drivers need to obtain the pointer, which
requires needless exports and exposing internals. This can all be
completely avoided by assigning clocksource IDs and using them for
describing the correlated clock source.
So this adds clocksource IDs to all clocksources in the tree which can
be exposed to this mechanism and removes the pointer and now needless
exports.

"Updates for the MSI interrupt subsystem and initial RISC-V MSI
support.
The core changes have been adopted from previous work which converted
ARM[64] to the new per device MSI domain model, which was merged to
support multiple MSI domain per device. The ARM[64] changes are being
worked on too, but have not been ready yet. The core and platform-MSI
changes have been split out to not hold up RISC-V and to avoid that
RISC-V builds on the scheduled for removal interfaces.
The core support provides new interfaces to handle wire to MSI bridges
in a straight forward way and introduces new platform-MSI interfaces
which are built on top of the per device MSI domain model.
Once ARM[64] is converted over the old platform-MSI interfaces and the
related ugliness in the MSI core code will be removed.
The actual MSI parts for RISC-V were finalized late and have been
post-poned for the next merge window.
Drivers:

- Rework the SiFive PLIC driver to prepare for MSI suport

- During v6.6 cycle, unbound workqueues were updated so that they are
more topology aware and flexible, which among other things improved
workqueue behavior on modern multi-L3 CPUs. In the process, commit
636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu
pool_workqueues") switched unbound workqueues to use per-CPU
frontend pool_workqueues as a part of increasing front-back mapping
flexibility.
An unwelcome side effect of this change was that this made max
concurrency enforcement per-CPU blowing up the maximum number of
allowed concurrent executions. I incorrectly assumed that this
wouldn't cause practical problems as most unbound workqueue users
are self-regulate max concurrency; however, there definitely are
which don't (e.g. on IO paths) and the drastic increase in the
allowed max concurrency led to noticeable perf regressions in some
use cases.
This is now addressed by separating out max concurrency enforcement
to a separate struct - wq_node_nr_active - which makes @max_active
consistently mean system-wide max concurrency regardless of the
number of CPUs or (finally) NUMA nodes. This is a rather invasive
and, in places, a bit clunky; however, the clunkiness rises from
the the inherent requirement to handle the disagreement between the
execution locality domain and max concurrency enforcement domain on
some modern machines.
See commit 5797b1c18919 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide
nr_active enforcement for unbound workqueues") for more details.
- BH workqueue support is added.
They are similar to per-CPU workqueues but execute work items in
the softirq context. This is expected to replace tasklet. However,
currently, it's missing the ability to disable and enable work
items which is needed to convert many tasklet users. To avoid
crowding this merge window too much, this will be included in the
next merge window. A separate pull request will be sent for the
couple conversion patches that are currently pending.
- Waiman plugged a long-standing hole in workqueue CPU isolation
where ordered workqueues didn't follow wq_unbound_cpumask updates.
Ordered workqueues now follow the same rules as other unbound
workqueues.
- More CPU isolation improvements: Juri fixed another deficit in
workqueue isolation where unbound rescuers don't respect
wq_unbound_cpumask. Leonardo fixed delayed_work timers firing on
isolated CPUs.
- Other misc changes"
