When a CPU has no more CFS tasks to run, and idle_balance() fails to
find a task, then attempt to steal a task from an overloaded CPU in the
same LLC. Maintain and use a bitmap of overloaded CPUs to efficiently
identify candidates. To minimize search time, steal the first migratable
task that is found when the bitmap is traversed. For fairness, search
for migratable tasks on an overloaded CPU in order of next to run.
This simple stealing yields a higher CPU utilization than idle_balance()
alone, because the search is cheap, so it may be called every time the CPU
is about to go idle. idle_balance() does more work because it searches
widely for the busiest queue, so to limit its CPU consumption, it declines
to search if the system is too busy. Simple stealing does not offload the
globally busiest queue, but it is much better than running nothing at all.
The bitmap of overloaded CPUs is a new type of sparse bitmap, designed to
reduce cache contention vs the usual bitmap when many threads concurrently
set, clear, and visit elements.
Patch 1 defines the sparsemask type and its operations.
Patches 2, 3, and 4 implement the bitmap of overloaded CPUs.
Patches 5 and 6 refactor existing code for a cleaner merge of later
patches.
Patches 7 and 8 implement task stealing using the overloaded CPUs bitmap.
Patch 9 disables stealing on systems with more than 2 NUMA nodes for the
time being because of performance regressions that are not due to stealing
per-se. See the patch description for details.
Patch 10 adds schedstats for comparing the new behavior to the old, and
provided as a convenience for developers only, not for integration.
The patch series is based on kernel 4.19.0-rc7. It compiles, boots, and
runs with/without each of CONFIG_SCHED_SMT, CONFIG_SMP, CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG,
and CONFIG_PREEMPT. It runs without error with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT +
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG + CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC + CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES +
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK + CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP. CPU hot plug and CPU
bandwidth control were tested.
Stealing imprroves utilization with only a modest CPU overhead in scheduler
code. In the following experiment, hackbench is run with varying numbers
of groups (40 tasks per group), and the delta in /proc/schedstat is shown
for each run, averaged per CPU, augmented with these non-standard stats:
%find - percent of time spent in old and new functions that search for
idle CPUs and tasks to steal and set the overloaded CPUs bitmap.
steal - number of times a task is stolen from another CPU.

regression. Note: for all hackbench runs, sched_wakeup_granularity_ns

1.8.3.1
The STEAL feature causes regressions on hackbench on larger NUMA systems,
so disable it on systems with more than sched_steal_node_limit nodes
(default 2). Note that the feature remains enabled as seen in features.h
and /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features, but stealing is only performed if
nodes <= sched_steal_node_limit. This arrangement allows users to activate
stealing on reboot by setting the kernel parameter sched_steal_node_limit
on kernels built without CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG. The parameter is temporary
and will be deleted when the regression is fixed.
Details of the regression follow. With the STEAL feature set, hackbench
is slower on many-node systems:

Total CPU time increases. Profiling shows that CPU time increases
uniformly across all functions, suggesting a systemic increase in cache
or memory latency. This may be due to NUMA migrations, as they cause
loss of LLC cache footprint and remote memory latencies.
The domains for this system and their flags are:
domain0 (SMT) : 1 core

Schedstats point to the root cause of the regression. hackbench is run
10 times per group and the average schedstat accumulation per-run and

SD_WAKE_AFFINE is not set there.

Cross-numa-node migrations are caused by load balancing pulls and
wake_affine moves. Pulls are small and similar for no_steal and steal.
However, moves are significantly higher for steal, and rows above with the
highest moves have the worst regressions for time; see for example grp=8.
Moves increase for steal due to the following logic in wake_affine_idle()
for synchronous wakeup:
if (sync && cpu_rq(this_cpu)->nr_running == 1)
return this_cpu; // move the task
The steal feature does a better job of smoothing the load between idle
and busy CPUs, so nr_running is 1 more often, and moves are performed
more often. For hackbench, cross-node affine moves early in the run are
good because they colocate wakers and wakees from the same group on the
same node, but continued moves later in the run are bad, because the wakee
is moved away from peers on its previous node. Note that even no_steal
is far from optimal; binding an instance of "hackbench 2" to each of the
8 NUMA nodes runs much faster than running "hackbench 16" with no binding.
Clearing SD_WAKE_AFFINE for domain2 eliminates the affine cross-node
migrations and eliminates the difference between no_steal and steal
performance. However, overall performance is lower than WA_IDLE because
some migrations are helpful as explained above.
I have tried many heuristics in a attempt to optimize the number of
cross-node moves in all conditions, with limited success. The fundamental
problem is that the scheduler does not track which groups of tasks talk to
each other. Parts of several groups become entrenched on the same node,
filling it to capacity, leaving no room for either group to pull its peers
over, and there is neither data nor mechanism for the scheduler to evict
one group to make room for the other.
For now, disable STEAL on such systems until we can do better, or it is
shown that hackbench is atypical and most workloads benefit from stealing.

1.8.3.1
When a CPU has no more CFS tasks to run, and idle_balance() fails to find a
task, then attempt to steal a task from an overloaded CPU in the same LLC,
using the cfs_overload_cpus bitmap to efficiently identify candidates. To
minimize search time, steal the first migratable task that is found when
the bitmap is traversed. For fairness, search for migratable tasks on an
overloaded CPU in order of next to run.
This simple stealing yields a higher CPU utilization than idle_balance()
alone, because the search is cheap, so it may be called every time the CPU
is about to go idle. idle_balance() does more work because it searches
widely for the busiest queue, so to limit its CPU consumption, it declines
to search if the system is too busy. Simple stealing does not offload the
globally busiest queue, but it is much better than running nothing at all.
Stealing is controlled by the sched feature SCHED_STEAL, which is enabled
by default.
Stealing imprroves utilization with only a modest CPU overhead in scheduler
code. In the following experiment, hackbench is run with varying numbers
of groups (40 tasks per group), and the delta in /proc/schedstat is shown
for each run, averaged per CPU, augmented with these non-standard stats:
%find - percent of time spent in old and new functions that search for
idle CPUs and tasks to steal and set the overloaded CPUs bitmap.
steal - number of times a task is stolen from another CPU.

The cost is at most 0.4% more find time.
Additional performance results follow. A negative "speedup" is a
regression. Note: for all hackbench runs, sched_wakeup_granularity_ns
is set to 15 msec. Otherwise, preemptions increase at higher loads and
distort the comparison between baseline and new.

1.8.3.1
Add schedstats to measure the effectiveness of searching for idle CPUs
and stealing tasks. This is a temporary patch intended for use during
development only. SCHEDSTAT_VERSION is bumped to 16, and the following
fields are added to the per-CPU statistics of /proc/schedstat:
field 10: # of times select_idle_sibling "easily" found an idle CPU --
prev or target is idle.
field 11: # of times select_idle_sibling searched and found an idle cpu.
field 12: # of times select_idle_sibling searched and found an idle core.
field 13: # of times select_idle_sibling failed to find anything idle.
field 14: time in nanoseconds spent in functions that search for idle
CPUs and search for tasks to steal.
field 15: # of times an idle CPU steals a task from another CPU.
field 16: # of times try_steal finds overloaded CPUs but no task is
migratable.

An overloaded CPU has more than 1 runnable task. When a CFS task wakes
on a CPU, if h_nr_running transitions from 1 to more, then set the CPU in
the cfs_overload_cpus bitmap. When a CFS task sleeps, if h_nr_running
transitions from 2 to less, then clear the CPU in cfs_overload_cpus.

1.8.3.1
From: Steve Sistare <[email protected]>
Provide struct sparsemask and functions to manipulate it. A sparsemask is
a sparse bitmap. It reduces cache contention vs the usual bitmap when many
threads concurrently set, clear, and visit elements, by reducing the number
of significant bits per cacheline. For each 64 byte chunk of the mask,
only the first K bits of the first word are used, and the remaining bits
are ignored, where K is a creation time parameter. Thus a sparsemask that
can represent a set of N elements is approximately (N/K * 64) bytes in
size.

1.8.3.1
Add functions sd_llc_alloc_all() and sd_llc_free_all() to allocate and
free data pointed to by struct sched_domain_shared at the last-level-cache
domain. sd_llc_alloc_all() is called after the SD hierarchy is known, to
eliminate the unnecessary allocations that would occur if we instead
allocated in __sdt_alloc() and then figured out which shared nodes are
redundant.

There are some conflicts with misfit on 4.20-rc1 (nothing major, just that
misfit logic appeared where the stealing logic wants to land), and git
gets lost after a few conflict resolutions.
It's fine for testing on 4.19 - I just apply the misfit series then merge
a branch with the steal patches to fix it all at once - but it makes
playing around with 4.20-rc* more tedious.

In a moment I will email V3 of the series updated for 4.20-rc1. No code changes,
context changes only.
