Code is emitting the following error message during boot on systems
without PMU hardware support while probing NMI capability.
NMI watchdog: Perf event create on CPU 0 failed with -2
This error is emitted as the perf subsystem returns -ENOENT due to lack of
PMUs in the system.
It is followed by the warning that NMI watchdog is disabled:
NMI watchdog: Perf NMI watchdog permanently disabled
While NMI disabled information is useful for ordinary users, seeing a PERF
event create failed with error code -2 is not.
Reduce the message severity to debug so that if debugging is still possible
in case the error code returned by perf is required for analysis.

task_numa_find_cpu() helps to find the CPU to swap/move the task to.
It's guarded by numa_has_capacity(). However node not having capacity
shouldn't deter a task swapping if it helps NUMA placement.
Further load_too_imbalanced(), which evaluates possibilities of move/swap,
provides similar checks as numa_has_capacity.
Hence remove numa_has_capacity() to enhance possibilities of task
swapping even if load is imbalanced.

There are checks in migrate_swap_stop() that check if the task/CPU
combination is as per migrate_swap_arg before migrating.
However atleast one of the two tasks to be swapped by migrate_swap() could
have migrated to a completely different CPU before updating the
migrate_swap_arg. The new CPU where the task is currently running could
be a different node too. If the task has migrated, numa balancer might
end up placing a task in a wrong node. Instead of achieving node
consolidation, it may end up spreading the load across nodes.
To avoid that pass the CPUs as additional parameters.
While here, place migrate_swap under CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING.

Currently preferred node is set to dst_nid which is the last node in the
iteration whose group weight or task weight is greater than the current
node. However it doesn't guarantee that dst_nid has the numa capacity
to move. It also doesn't guarantee that dst_nid has the best_cpu which
is the CPU/node ideal for node migration.
Lets consider faults on a 4 node system with group weight numbers
in different nodes being in 0 < 1 < 2 < 3 proportion. Consider the task
is running on 3 and 0 is its preferred node but its capacity is full.
Consider nodes 1, 2 and 3 have capacity. Then the task should be
migrated to node 1. Currently the task gets moved to node 2. env.dst_nid
points to the last node whose faults were greater than current node.
Modify to set the preferred node based of best_cpu. Earlier setting
preferred node was skipped if nr_active_nodes is 1. This could result in
the task being moved out of the preferred node to a random node during
regular load balancing.
Also while modifying task_numa_migrate(), use sched_setnuma to set
preferred node. This ensures out numa accounting is correct.

Currently load_too_imbalance() cares about the slope of imbalance.
It doesn't care of the direction of the imbalance.
However this may not work if nodes that are being compared have
dissimilar capacities. Few nodes might have more cores than other nodes
in the system. Also unlike traditional load balance at a NUMA sched
domain, multiple requests to migrate from the same source node to same
destination node may run in parallel. This can cause huge load
imbalance. This is specially true on a larger machines with either large
cores per node or more number of nodes in the system. Hence allow
move/swap only if the imbalance is going to reduce.

Although we can rely on cpuacct to present the CPU usage of task
groups, it is hard to tell how intense the competition is between
these groups on CPU resources.
Monitoring the wait time or sched_debug of each process could be
very expensive, and there is no good way to accurately represent the
conflict with these info, we need the wait time on group dimension.
Thus we introduce group's wait_sum to represent the resource conflict
between task groups, which is simply the sum of the wait time of
the group's cfs_rq.
The 'cpu.stat' is modified to show the statistic, like:
nr_periods 0
nr_throttled 0
throttled_time 0
wait_sum 2035098795584
Now we can monitor the changes of wait_sum to tell how much a
a task group is suffering in the fight of CPU resources.
For example:
(wait_sum - last_wait_sum) * 100 / (nr_cpu * period_ns) == X%
means the task group paid X percentage of period on waiting
for the CPU.

NO_RT_RUNTIME_SHARE feature is used to prevent a CPU borrow enough
runtime with a spin-rt-task.
However, if RT_RUNTIME_SHARE feature is enabled and rt_rq has borrowd
enough rt_runtime at the beginning, rt_runtime can't be restored to
its initial bandwidth rt_runtime after we disable RT_RUNTIME_SHARE.
E.g. on my PC with 4 cores, procedure to reproduce:
1) Make sure RT_RUNTIME_SHARE is enabled
cat /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features

NO_WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK RT_PUSH_IPI RT_RUNTIME_SHARE NO_LB_MIN
ATTACH_AGE_LOAD WA_IDLE WA_WEIGHT WA_BIAS
2) Start a spin-rt-task
./loop_rr &
3) set affinity to the last cpu
taskset -p 8 $pid_of_loop_rr
4) Observe that last cpu have borrowed enough runtime.
cat /proc/sched_debug | grep rt_runtime

.rt_runtime : 900.000000
.rt_runtime : 950.000000

5) Disable RT_RUNTIME_SHARE

6) Observe that rt_runtime can not been restored
cat /proc/sched_debug | grep rt_runtime

This commit:
9fb8d5dc4b ("stop_machine, Disable preemption when waking two stopper threads")
does not fully address the race condition that can occur
as follows:
On one CPU, call it CPU 3, thread 1 invokes
cpu_stop_queue_two_works(2, 3,...), and the execution is such
that thread 1 queues the works for migration/2 and migration/3,
and is preempted after releasing the locks for migration/2 and
migration/3, but before waking the threads.
Then, On CPU 2, a kworker, call it thread 2, is running,
and it invokes cpu_stop_queue_two_works(1, 2,...), such that
thread 2 queues the works for migration/1 and migration/2.
Meanwhile, on CPU 3, thread 1 resumes execution, and wakes
migration/2 and migration/3. This means that when CPU 2
releases the locks for migration/1 and migration/2, but before
it wakes those threads, it can be preempted by migration/2.
If thread 2 is preempted by migration/2, then migration/2 will
execute the first work item successfully, since migration/3
was woken up by CPU 3, but when it goes to execute the second
work item, it disables preemption, calls multi_cpu_stop(),
and thus, CPU 2 will wait forever for migration/1, which should
have been woken up by thread 2. However migration/1 cannot be
woken up by thread 2, since it is a kworker, so it is affine to
CPU 2, but CPU 2 is running migration/2 with preemption
disabled, so thread 2 will never run.
Disable preemption after queueing works for stopper threads
to ensure that the operation of queueing the works and waking
the stopper threads is atomic.

And finally a fix to the Power9 idle code to restore SPRG3, which is
user visible and used for sched_getcpu().

Like vm_area_dup(), it initializes the anon_vma_chain head, and the
basic mm pointer.
The rest of the fields end up being different for different users,
although the plan is to also initialize the 'vm_ops' field to a dummy
entry.

.. and re-initialize th eanon_vma_chain head.
This removes some boiler-plate from the users, and also makes it clear
why it didn't need use the 'zalloc()' version.

The vm_area_struct is one of the most fundamental memory management
objects, but the management of it is entirely open-coded evertwhere,
ranging from allocation and freeing (using kmem_cache_[z]alloc and
kmem_cache_free) to initializing all the fields.
We want to unify this in order to end up having some unified
initialization of the vmas, and the first step to this is to at least
have basic allocation functions.
Right now those functions are literally just wrappers around the
kmem_cache_*() calls. This is a purely mechanical conversion:
# new vma:
kmem_cache_zalloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_alloc()
# copy old vma
kmem_cache_alloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_dup(old)
# free vma
kmem_cache_free(vm_area_cachep, vma) -> vm_area_free(vma)
to the point where the old vma passed in to the vm_area_dup() function
isn't even used yet (because I've left all the old manual initialization
alone).

mm/memblock: add missing include <linux/bootmem.h>
It was reported that a kernel crash happened in mem_cgroup_iter(), which
can be triggered if the legacy cgroup-v1 non-hierarchical mode is used.
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 6b6b6b6b6b6b8f

mem_cgroup_iter():
......
if (css_tryget(css)) <-- crash here
break;
......
The crashing reason is that mem_cgroup_iter() uses the memcg object whose
pointer is stored in iter->position, which has been freed before and
filled with POISON_FREE(0x6b).
And the root cause of the use-after-free issue is that
invalidate_reclaim_iterators() fails to reset the value of iter->position
to NULL when the css of the memcg is released in non- hierarchical mode.

__split_huge_pmd_locked() must check if the cleared huge pmd was dirty,
and propagate that to PageDirty: otherwise, data may be lost when a huge
tmpfs page is modified then split then reclaimed.
How has this taken so long to be noticed? Because there was no problem
when the huge page is written by a write system call (shmem_write_end()
calls set_page_dirty()), nor when the page is allocated for a write fault
(fault_dirty_shared_page() calls set_page_dirty()); but when allocated for
a read fault (which MAP_POPULATE simulates), no set_page_dirty().

Commit 26f09e9b3a ("mm/memblock: add memblock memory allocation apis")
introduced two new function definitions:
memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_nopanic()
memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid()
and commit ea1f5f3712 ("mm: define memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw")
introduced the following function definition:
memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw()
This commit adds an include of header file <linux/bootmem.h> to provide
the missing function prototypes. This silences the following gcc warning
(W=1):
mm/memblock.c:1334:15: warning: no previous prototype for `memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
mm/memblock.c:1371:15: warning: no previous prototype for `memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_nopanic' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
mm/memblock.c:1407:15: warning: no previous prototype for `memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
Also adds #ifdef blockers to prevent compilation failure on mips/ia64
where CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=n as could be seen in commit commit 6cc22dc08a
("revert "mm/memblock: add missing include <linux/bootmem.h>"").
Because Makefile already does:
obj-$(CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK) += memblock.o
The #ifdef has been simplified from:
#if defined(CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK) && defined(CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM)
to simply:
#if defined(CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM)
