<linux/rcupdate_wait.h>
So rcupdate.h is a pretty complex header, in particular it includes
<linux/completion.h> which includes <linux/wait.h> - creating a
dependency that includes <linux/wait.h> in <linux/sched.h>,
which prevents the isolation of <linux/sched.h> from the derived
<linux/wait.h> header.
Solve part of the problem by decoupling rcupdate.h from completions:
this can be done by separating out the rcu_synchronize types and APIs,
and updating their usage sites.
Since this is a mostly RCU-internal types this will not just simplify
<linux/sched.h>'s dependencies, but will make all the hundreds of
.c files that include rcupdate.h but not completions or wait.h build
faster.
( For rcutiny this means that two dependent APIs have to be uninlined,
but that shouldn't be much of a problem as they are rare variants. )

tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() too is a pretty pointless wrapper that
is not used consistently and which makes the code both harder
to read and longer as well.
So remove it - this also shrinks <linux/sched.h> a bit.

So the original intention of tsk_cpus_allowed() was to 'future-proof'
the field - but it's pretty ineffectual at that, because half of
the code uses ->cpus_allowed directly ...
Also, the wrapper makes the code longer than the original expression!
So just get rid of it. This also shrinks <linux/sched.h> a bit.

It's defined in <linux/sched.h>, but nothing outside the scheduler
uses it - so move it to the sched/core.c usage site.

The length of TASK_STATE_TO_CHAR_STR was still checked using the old
link-time manual error method - convert it to BUILD_BUG_ON(). This
has a couple of advantages:
- it's more obvious what's going on
- it reduces the size and complexity of <linux/sched.h>
- BUILD_BUG_ON() will fail during compilation, with a clearer
error message than the link time assert.

"Two rq-clock warnings related fixes, plus a cgroups related crash fix"
* 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
sched/cgroup: Move sched_online_group() back into css_online() to fix crash
sched/fair: Update rq clock before changing a task's CPU affinity

Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_count);/mmgrab\(\1\);/'
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_count);/mmgrab\(\&\1\);/'
This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

Commit:
2f5177f0fd7e ("sched/cgroup: Fix/cleanup cgroup teardown/init")
.. moved sched_online_group() from css_online() to css_alloc().
It exposes half-baked task group into global lists before initializing
generic cgroup stuff.
LTP testcase (third in cgroup_regression_test) written for testing
similar race in kernels 2.6.26-2.6.28 easily triggers this oops:

Here the task group is already linked into the global RCU-protected 'task_groups'

This patch reverts this chunk and moves online back to css_online().

The task is running && !queued, so there is no rq clock update before calling
set_curr_task().
This patch fixes it by updating rq clock after holding rq->lock/pi_lock
just as what other dequeue + put_prev + enqueue + set_curr story does.

The hotplug code still triggers the warning about using a stale
rq->clock value.
Fix things up to actually run update_rq_clock() in a place where we
record the 'UPDATED' flag, and then modify the annotation to retain
this flag over the rq->lock fiddling that happens as a result of
actually migrating all the tasks elsewhere.

Commit 004172bdad64 ("sched/core: Remove unnecessary #include headers")
removed the inclusion of asm/paravirt.h which is used to get
declarations of paravirt_steal_rq_enabled and paravirt_steal_clock.
It is implicitly included on x86 but not on arm and arm64 breaking the
build if paravirtualization is used. Since things from that header are
used directly fix the build by putting the direct inclusion back.

The check for 'running' in sched_move_task() has an unlikely() around it. That
is, it is unlikely that the task being moved is running. That use to be
true. But with a couple of recent updates, it is now likely that the task
will be running.
The first change came from ea86cb4b7621 ("sched/cgroup: Fix
cpu_cgroup_fork() handling") that moved around the use case of
sched_move_task() in do_fork() where the call is now done after the task is
woken (hence it is running).
The second change came from 8e5bfa8c1f84 ("sched/autogroup: Do not use
autogroup->tg in zombie threads") where sched_move_task() is called by the
exit path, by the task that is exiting. Hence it too is running.

milliseconds
We added the 'sched_rr_timeslice_ms' SCHED_RR tuning knob in this commit:
ce0dbbbb30ae ("sched/rt: Add a tuning knob to allow changing SCHED_RR timeslice")
... which name suggests to users that it's in milliseconds, while in reality
it's being set in milliseconds but the result is shown in jiffies.
This is obviously confusing when HZ is not 1000, it makes it appear like the
value set failed, such as HZ=100:
root# echo 100 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rr_timeslice_ms
root# cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rr_timeslice_ms
10
Fix this to be milliseconds all around.

The irqtime is accounted is nsecs and stored in
cpu_irq_time.hardirq_time and cpu_irq_time.softirq_time. Once the
accumulated amount reaches a new jiffy, this one gets accounted to the
kcpustat.
This was necessary when kcpustat was stored in cputime_t, which could at
worst have jiffies granularity. But now kcpustat is stored in nsecs
so this whole discretization game with temporary irqtime storage has
become unnecessary.
We can now directly account the irqtime to the kcpustat.

Now that most cputime readers use the transition API which return the
task cputime in old style cputime_t, we can safely store the cputime in
nsecs. This will eventually make cputime statistics less opaque and more
granular. Back and forth convertions between cputime_t and nsecs in order
to deal with cputime_t random granularity won't be needed anymore.

Kernel CPU stats are stored in cputime_t which is an architecture
defined type, and hence a bit opaque and requiring accessors and mutators
for any operation.
Converting them to nsecs simplifies the code and is one step toward
the removal of cputime_t in the core code.

Since the change in commit:
fd7a4bed1835 ("sched, rt: Convert switched_{from, to}_rt() / prio_changed_rt() to balance callbacks")
... we don't reschedule a task under certain circumstances:
Lets say task-A, SCHED_OTHER, is running on CPU0 (and it may run only on
CPU0) and holds a PI lock. This task is removed from the CPU because it
used up its time slice and another SCHED_OTHER task is running. Task-B on
CPU1 runs at RT priority and asks for the lock owned by task-A. This
results in a priority boost for task-A. Task-B goes to sleep until the
lock has been made available. Task-A is already runnable (but not active),
so it receives no wake up.
The reality now is that task-A gets on the CPU once the scheduler decides
to remove the current task despite the fact that a high priority task is
enqueued and waiting. This may take a long time.
The desired behaviour is that CPU0 immediately reschedules after the
priority boost which made task-A the task with the lowest priority.

__migrate_task() can return with a different runqueue locked than the
one we passed as an argument. So that we can repin the lock in
migrate_tasks() (and keep the update_rq_clock() bit) we need to
restore the old rq_flags before repinning.
Note that it wouldn't be correct to change move_queued_task() to repin
because of the change of runqueue and the fact that having an
up-to-date clock on the initial rq doesn't mean the new rq has one
too.

Steve noticed that when we switch from IDLE to SCHED_OTHER we fail to
take the shortcut, even though all runnable tasks are of the fair
class, because prev->sched_class != &fair_sched_class.
Since I reworked the put_prev_task() stuff, we don't really care about
prev->class here, so removing that condition will allow this case.
This increases the likely case from 78% to 98% correct for Steve's
workload.

Mike reported that he could trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
set_sched_clock_stable() using hotplug.
This exposed a fundamental problem with the interface, we should never
mark the TSC stable if we ever find it to be unstable. Therefore
set_sched_clock_stable() is a broken interface.
The reason it existed is that not having it is a pain, it means all
relevant architecture code needs to call clear_sched_clock_stable()
where appropriate.
Of the three architectures that select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK ia64
and parisc are trivial in that they never called
set_sched_clock_stable(), so add an unconditional call to
clear_sched_clock_stable() to them.
For x86 the story is a lot more involved, and what this patch tries to
do is ensure we preserve the status quo. So even is Cyrix or Transmeta
have usable TSC they never called set_sched_clock_stable() so they now
get an explicit mark unstable.

Now that IO schedule accounting is done inside __schedule(),
io_schedule() can be split into three steps - prep, schedule, and
finish - where the schedule part doesn't need any special annotation.
This allows marking a sleep as iowait by simply wrapping an existing
blocking function with io_schedule_prepare() and io_schedule_finish().
Because task_struct->in_iowait is single bit, the caller of
io_schedule_prepare() needs to record and the pass its state to
io_schedule_finish() to be safe regarding nesting. While this isn't
the prettiest, these functions are mostly gonna be used by core
functions and we don't want to use more space for ->in_iowait.
While at it, as it's simple to do now, reimplement io_schedule()
without unnecessarily going through io_schedule_timeout().

scheduler
For an interface to support blocking for IOs, it must call
io_schedule() instead of schedule(). This makes it tedious to add IO
blocking to existing interfaces as the switching between schedule()
and io_schedule() is often buried deep.
As we already have a way to mark the task as IO scheduling, this can
be made easier by separating out io_schedule() into multiple steps so
that IO schedule preparation can be performed before invoking a
blocking interface and the actual accounting happens inside the
scheduler.
io_schedule_timeout() does the following three things prior to calling
schedule_timeout().
1. Mark the task as scheduling for IO.
2. Flush out plugged IOs.
3. Account the IO scheduling.
done close to the actual scheduling. This patch moves #3 into the
scheduler so that later patches can separate out preparation and
finish steps from io_schedule().

The update of the share of a cfs_rq is done when its load_avg is updated
but before the group_entity's load_avg has been updated for the past time
slot. This generates wrong load_avg accounting which can be significant
when small tasks are involved in the scheduling.
Let take the example of a task a that is dequeued of its task group A:
root
(cfs_rq)
\
(se)
A
(cfs_rq)
\
(se)
a
Task "a" was the only task in task group A which becomes idle when a is
dequeued.
We have the sequence:
- dequeue_entity a->se
- update_load_avg(a->se)
- dequeue_entity_load_avg(A->cfs_rq, a->se)
- update_cfs_shares(A->cfs_rq)
A->cfs_rq->load.weight == 0
A->se->load.weight is updated with the new share (0 in this case)
- dequeue_entity A->se
- update_load_avg(A->se) but its weight is now null so the last time
slot (up to a tick) will be accounted with a weight of 0 instead of
its real weight during the time slot. The last time slot will be
accounted as an idle one whereas it was a running one.
If the running time of task a is short enough that no tick happens when it
runs, all running time of group entity A->se will be accounted as idle
time.
Instead, we should update the share of a cfs_rq (in fact the weight of its
group entity) only after having updated the load_avg of the group_entity.
update_cfs_shares() now takes the sched_entity as a parameter instead of the
cfs_rq, and the weight of the group_entity is updated only once its load_avg
has been synced with current time.

Documentation/scheduler/completion.txt says this about complete_all():
"calls complete_all() to signal all current and future waiters."
Which doesn't strictly match the current semantics. Currently
complete_all() is equivalent to UINT_MAX/2 complete() invocations,
which is distinctly less than 'all current and future waiters'
(enumerable vs innumerable), although it has worked in practice.
However, Dmitry had a weird case where it might matter, so change
completions to use saturation semantics for complete()/complete_all().
Once done hits UINT_MAX (and complete_all() sets it there) it will
never again be decremented.

When switching between the unstable and stable variants it is
currently possible that clock discontinuities occur.
And while these will mostly be 'small', attempt to do better.
As observed on my IVB-EP, the sched_clock() is ~1.5s ahead of the
ktime_get_ns() based timeline at the point of switchover
(sched_clock_init_late()) after SMP bringup.
Equally, when the TSC is later found to be unstable -- typically
because SMM tries to hide its SMI latencies by mucking with the TSC --
we want to avoid large jumps.
Since the clocksource watchdog reports the issue after the fact we
cannot exactly fix up time, but since SMI latencies are typically
small (~10ns range), the discontinuity is mainly due to drift between
sched_clock() and ktime_get_ns() (which on my desktop is ~79s over
24days).
I dislike this patch because it adds overhead to the good case in
favour of dealing with badness. But given the widespread failure of
TSC stability this is worth it.
Note that in case the TSC makes drastic jumps after SMP bringup we're
still hosed. There's just not much we can do in that case without
stupid overhead.
If we were to somehow expose tsc_clocksource_reliable (which is hard
because this code is also used on ia64 and parisc) we could avoid some
of the newly introduced overhead.

Currently we switch to the stable sched_clock if we guess the TSC is
usable, and then switch back to the unstable path if it turns out TSC
isn't stable during SMP bringup after all.
Delay switching to the stable path until after SMP bringup is
complete. This way we'll avoid switching during the time we detect the
worst of the TSC offences.

There's no diagnostic checks for figuring out when we've accidentally
missed update_rq_clock() calls. Let's add some by piggybacking on the
rq_*pin_lock() wrappers.
The idea behind the diagnostic checks is that upon pining rq lock the
rq clock should be updated, via update_rq_clock(), before anybody
reads the clock with rq_clock() or rq_clock_task().
The exception to this rule is when updates have explicitly been
disabled with the rq_clock_skip_update() optimisation.
There are some functions that only unpin the rq lock in order to grab
some other lock and avoid deadlock. In that case we don't need to
update the clock again and the previous diagnostic state can be
carried over in rq_repin_lock() by saving the state in the rq_flags
context.
Since this patch adds a new clock update flag and some already exist
in rq::clock_skip_update, that field has now been renamed. An attempt
has been made to keep the flag manipulation code small and fast since
it's used in the heart of the __schedule() fast path.
For the !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG case the only object code change (other
than addresses) is the following change to reset RQCF_ACT_SKIP inside
of __schedule(),
