Everyone have been cc'ed on Patch 0 through Patch 3. Respective arch maintainers, reviewers, and committers returned by scripts/get_maintainer.pl have been cc'ed on the respective arch side changes. Scheduler and CPU Idle maintainers and reviewers have been included for the entire series. If I have missed anyone, please do add them. If you would like to be dropped from the cc list, wholly or partially, for the future iterations, please do let me know. With that out of the way ... Problem statement ================= When measuring IPI throughput using a modified version of Anton Blanchard's ipistorm benchmark [1], configured to measure time taken to perform a fixed number of smp_call_function_single() (with wait set to 1), an increase in benchmark time was observed between v5.7 and the current upstream release (v6.7-rc6 at the time of encounter). Bisection pointed to commit b2a02fc43a1f ("smp: Optimize send_call_function_single_ipi()") as the reason behind this increase in runtime. Experiments =========== Since the commit cannot be cleanly reverted on top of the current tip:sched/core, the effects of the optimizations were reverted by: 1. Removing the check for call_function_single_prep_ipi() in send_call_function_single_ipi(). With this change send_call_function_single_ipi() always calls arch_send_call_function_single_ipi() 2. Removing the call to flush_smp_call_function_queue() in do_idle() since every smp_call_function, with (1.), would unconditionally send an IPI to an idle CPU in TIF_POLLING mode. Following is the diff of the above described changes which will be henceforth referred to as the "revert": --- With the revert, the time taken to complete a fixed set of IPIs using ipistorm improves significantly. Following are the numbers from a dual socket 3rd Generation EPYC system (2 x 64C/128T) (boost on, C2 disabled) running ipistorm between CPU8 and CPU16: cmdline: insmod ipistorm.ko numipi=100000 single=1 offset=8 cpulist=8 wait=1 (tip:sched/core at tag "sched-core-2024-01-08" for all the testing done below) ================================================================== Test : ipistorm (modified) Units : Normalized runtime Interpretation: Lower is better Statistic : AMean ================================================================== kernel: time [pct imp] tip:sched/core 1.00 [0.00] tip:sched/core + revert 0.81 [19.36] Although the revert improves ipistorm performance, it also regresses tbench and netperf, supporting the validity of the optimization.

Effects of call_function_single_prep_ipi() ========================================== To pull a TIF_POLLING thread out of idle to process an IPI, the sender sets the TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit in the idle task's thread info in call_function_single_prep_ipi() and avoids sending an actual IPI to the target. As a result, the scheduler expects a task to be enqueued when exiting the idle path. This is not the case with non-polling idle states where the idle CPU exits the non-polling idle state to process the interrupt, and since need_resched() returns false, soon goes back to idle again. When TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag is set, do_idle() will call schedule_idle(), a large part of which runs with local IRQ disabled. In case of ipistorm, when measuring IPI throughput, this large IRQ disabled section delays processing of IPIs. Further auditing revealed that in absence of any runnable tasks, pick_next_task_fair(), which is called from the pick_next_task() fast path, will always call newidle_balance() in this scenario, further increasing the time spent in the IRQ disabled section. Following is the crude visualization of the problem with relevant functions expanded: -- CPU0 CPU1 ==== ==== do_idle() { __current_set_polling(); ... monitor(addr); if (!need_resched()) mwait() { /* Waiting */ smp_call_function_single(CPU1, func, wait = 1) { ... ... ... set_nr_if_polling(CPU1) { ... /* Realizes CPU1 is polling */ ... try_cmpxchg(addr, ... &val, ... val | _TIF_NEED_RESCHED); ... } /* Does not send an IPI */ ... ... } /* mwait exit due to write at addr */ csd_lock_wait() { } /* Waiting */ preempt_set_need_resched(); ... __current_clr_polling(); ... flush_smp_call_function_queue() { ... func(); } /* End of wait */ } } schedule_idle() { ... local_irq_disable(); smp_call_function_single(CPU1, func, wait = 1) { ... ... ... arch_send_call_function_single_ipi(CPU1); ... \ ... \ newidle_balance() { \ ... /* Delay */ ... \ } \ ... \--------------> local_irq_enable(); /* Processes the IPI */ -- Skipping newidle_balance() ========================== In an earlier attempt to solve the challenge of the long IRQ disabled section, newidle_balance() was skipped when a CPU waking up from idle was found to have no runnable tasks, and was transitioning back to idle [2]. Tim [3] and David [4] had pointed out that newidle_balance() may be viable for CPUs that are idling with tick enabled, where the newidle_balance() has the opportunity to pull tasks onto the idle CPU. Vincent [5] pointed out a case where the idle load kick will fail to run on an idle CPU since the IPI handler launching the ILB will check for need_resched(). In such cases, the idle CPU relies on newidle_balance() to pull tasks towards itself. Using an alternate flag instead of NEED_RESCHED to indicate a pending IPI was suggested as the correct approach to solve this problem on the same thread. Proposed solution: TIF_NOTIFY_IPI ================================= Instead of reusing TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit to pull an TIF_POLLING CPU out of idle, TIF_NOTIFY_IPI is a newly introduced flag that call_function_single_prep_ipi() sets on a target TIF_POLLING CPU to indicate a pending IPI, which the idle CPU promises to process soon. On architectures that do not support the TIF_NOTIFY_IPI flag (this series only adds support for x86 and ARM processors for now), call_function_single_prep_ipi() will fallback to setting TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit to pull the TIF_POLLING CPU out of idle. Since the pending IPI handlers are processed before the call to schedule_idle() in do_idle(), schedule_idle() will only be called if the IPI handler have woken / migrated a new task on the idle CPU and has set TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit to indicate the same. This avoids running into the long IRQ disabled section in schedule_idle() unnecessarily, and any need_resched() check within a call function will accurately notify if a task is waiting for CPU time on the CPU handling the IPI. Following is the crude visualization of how the situation changes with the newly introduced TIF_NOTIFY_IPI flag: -- CPU0 CPU1 ==== ==== do_idle() { __current_set_polling(); ... monitor(addr); if (!need_resched_or_ipi()) mwait() { /* Waiting */ smp_call_function_single(CPU1, func, wait = 1) { ... ... ... set_nr_if_polling(CPU1) { ... /* Realizes CPU1 is polling */ ... try_cmpxchg(addr, ... &val, ... val | _TIF_NOTIFY_IPI); ... } /* Does not send an IPI */ ... ... } /* mwait exit due to write at addr */ csd_lock_wait() { ... /* Waiting */ preempt_fold_need_resched(); /* fold if NEED_RESCHED */ ... __current_clr_polling(); ... flush_smp_call_function_queue() { ... func(); /* Will set NEED_RESCHED if sched_ttwu_pending() */ } /* End of wait */ } } if (need_resched()) { schedule_idle(); smp_call_function_single(CPU1, func, wait = 1) { } ... ... /* IRQs remain enabled */ arch_send_call_function_single_ipi(CPU1); -----------> /* Processes the IPI */ -- Results ======= With the TIF_NOTIFY_IPI, the time taken to complete a fixed set of IPIs using ipistorm improves drastically. Following are the numbers from the same dual socket 3rd Generation EPYC system (2 x 64C/128T) (boost on, C2 disabled) running ipistorm between CPU8 and CPU16: cmdline: insmod ipistorm.ko numipi=100000 single=1 offset=8 cpulist=8 wait=1 ================================================================== Test : ipistorm (modified) Units : Normalized runtime Interpretation: Lower is better Statistic : AMean ================================================================== kernel: time [pct imp] tip:sched/core 1.00 [0.00] tip:sched/core + revert 0.81 [19.36] tip:sched/core + TIF_NOTIFY_IPI 0.20 [80.99] Same experiment was repeated on an dual socket ARM server (2 x 64C) which too saw a significant improvement in the ipistorm performance: ================================================================== Test : ipistorm (modified) Units : Normalized runtime Interpretation: Lower is better Statistic : AMean ================================================================== kernel: time [pct imp] tip:sched/core 1.00 [0.00] tip:sched/core + TIF_NOTIFY_IPI 0.41 [59.29] netperf and tbench results with the patch match the results on tip on the dual socket 3rd Generation AMD system (2 x 64C/128T). Additionally, hackbench, stream, and schbench too were tested, with results from the patched kernel matching that of the tip. Future Work =========== Evaluate impact of newidle_balance() when scheduler tick hits an idle CPU. The call to newidle_balance() will be skipped with the TIF_NOTIFY_IPI solution similar to [2]. Counter argument for the case is that if the idle state did not set the TIF_POLLING bit, the idle CPU would not have called schedule_idle() unless the IPI handler set the NEED_RESCHED bit.
