- Add in support for KSEs with 0 slice values on the run queue. If we try to select a KSE with a slice of 0 we will update its slice and insert it onto the next queue. - Pass the KSE instead of the ksegrp into sched_slice(). This more accurately reflects the behavior of the code. Slices are granted to kses. - Add a function kseq_nice_min() which finds the smallest nice value assigned to the kseg of any KSE on the queue. - Rewrite the logic in sched_slice(). Add a large comment describing the new slice selection scheme. To summarize, slices are assigned based on the nice value. Priorities are still calculated based on the nice and interactivity of a process. Slice sizes of 0 may be granted for KSEs whos nice is 20 or futher away from the lowest nice on the run queue. Other nice values are scaled across the range [min, min+20]. This fixes ULEs bad behavior with positively niced processes.

Rework the interface between priority propagation (lending) and the schedulers a bit to ensure more correct handling of priorities and fewer priority inversions: - Add two functions to the sched(9) API to handle priority lending: sched_lend_prio() and sched_unlend_prio(). The turnstile code uses these functions to ask the scheduler to lend a thread a set priority and to tell the scheduler when it thinks it is ok for a thread to stop borrowing priority. The unlend case is slightly complex in that the turnstile code tells the scheduler what the minimum priority of the thread needs to be to satisfy the requirements of any other threads blocked on locks owned by the thread in question. The scheduler then decides where the thread can go back to normal mode (if it's normal priority is high enough to satisfy the pending lock requests) or it it should continue to use the priority specified to the sched_unlend_prio() call. This involves adding a new per-thread flag TDF_BORROWING that replaces the ULE-only kse flag for priority elevation. - Schedulers now refuse to lower the priority of a thread that is currently borrowing another therad's priority. - If a scheduler changes the priority of a thread that is currently sitting on a turnstile, it will call a new function turnstile_adjust() to inform the turnstile code of the change. This function resorts the thread on the priority list of the turnstile if needed, and if the thread ends up at the head of the list (due to having the highest priority) and its priority was raised, then it will propagate that new priority to the owner of the lock it is blocked on. Some additional fixes specific to the 4BSD scheduler include: - Common code for updating the priority of a thread when the user priority of its associated kse group has been consolidated in a new static function resetpriority_thread(). One change to this function is that it will now only adjust the priority of a thread if it already has a time sharing priority, thus preserving any boosts from a tsleep() until the thread returns to userland. Also, resetpriority() no longer calls maybe_resched() on each thread in the group. Instead, the code calling resetpriority() is responsible for calling resetpriority_thread() on any threads that need to be updated. - schedcpu() now uses resetpriority_thread() instead of just calling sched_prio() directly after it updates a kse group's user priority. - sched_clock() now uses resetpriority_thread() rather than writing directly to td_priority. - sched_nice() now updates all the priorities of the threads after the group priority has been adjusted.

#include <machine/cpu.h>
- Add static to local functions and data where it was missing. - Add an IPI based mechanism for migrating kses. This mechanism is broken down into several components. This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

I was attempting to use this for load balancing but it didn't work out. - Define a kseq_print() for use with debugging. - Add KTR debugging at useful places so we can easily debug slice and priority assignment. - Decouple the runq assignment from the kseq assignment. kseq_add now keeps track of statistics. This is done so that the nice and load is still tracked for the currently running process. Previously if a niced process was added while a non nice process was running the niced process would still get a slice since it was not aware of the unnice process. - Make adjustments for the sched api changes.

- Fix the maximum slice value. I accidentally checked in a value of '2' which meant no process would run for longer than 20ms. - Slightly redo the interactivity scorer. It follows the same algorithm but in a slightly more correct way. Previously values above half were incorrect. - Lower the interactivity threshold to 20. It seems that in testing non- interactive tasks are hardly ever near there and expensive interactive tasks can sometimes surpass it. This area needs more testing. - Remove an unnecessary KTR. - Fix a case where an idle thread that had an elevated priority due to priority prop. would be placed back on the idle queue. - Delay setting NEEDRESCHED until userret() for threads that haad their priority elevated while in kernel. This gives us the same context switch optimization as SCHED_4BSD. - Limit the child's slice to 1 in sched_fork_kse() so we detect its behavior more quickly. - Inhert some of the run/slp time from the child in sched_exit_ksegrp(). - Redo some of the priority comparisons so they are more clear. - Throttle the frequency of sched_pctcpu_update() so that rounding errors do not make it invalid.

* Thread scheduler specific section.
Refactor a bunch of scheduler code to give basically the same behaviour but with slightly cleaned up interfaces. The KSE structure has become the same as the "per thread scheduler private data" structure. In order to not make the diffs too great one is #defined as the other at this time. The KSE (or td_sched) structure is now allocated per thread and has no allocation code of its own. Concurrency for a KSEGRP is now kept track of via a simple pair of counters rather than using KSE structures as tokens. Since the KSE structure is different in each scheduler, kern_switch.c is now included at the end of each scheduler. Nothing outside the scheduler knows the contents of the KSE (aka td_sched) structure. The fields in the ksegrp structure that are to do with the scheduler's queueing mechanisms are now moved to the kg_sched structure. (per ksegrp scheduler private data structure). In other words how the scheduler queues and keeps track of threads is no-one's business except the scheduler's. This should allow people to write experimental schedulers with completely different internal structuring. A scheduler call sched_set_concurrency(kg, N) has been added that notifies teh scheduler that no more than N threads from that ksegrp should be allowed to be on concurrently scheduled. This is also used to enforce 'fainess' at this time so that a ksegrp with 10000 threads can not swamp a the run queue and force out a process with 1 thread, since the current code will not set the concurrency above NCPU, and both schedulers will not allow more than that many onto the system run queue at a time. Each scheduler should eventualy develop their own methods to do this now that they are effectively separated. Rejig libthr's kernel interface to follow the same code paths as linkse for scope system threads. This has slightly hurt libthr's performance but I will work to recover as much of it as I can. Thread exit code has been cleaned up greatly. exit and exec code now transitions a process back to 'standard non-threaded mode' before taking the next step.

Refactor a bunch of scheduler code to give basically the same behaviour but with slightly cleaned up interfaces. The KSE structure has become the same as the "per thread scheduler private data" structure. In order to not make the diffs too great one is #defined as the other at this time. The KSE (or td_sched) structure is now allocated per thread and has no allocation code of its own. Concurrency for a KSEGRP is now kept track of via a simple pair of counters rather than using KSE structures as tokens. Since the KSE structure is different in each scheduler, kern_switch.c is now included at the end of each scheduler. Nothing outside the scheduler knows the contents of the KSE (aka td_sched) structure. The fields in the ksegrp structure that are to do with the scheduler's queueing mechanisms are now moved to the kg_sched structure. (per ksegrp scheduler private data structure). In other words how the scheduler queues and keeps track of threads is no-one's business except the scheduler's. This should allow people to write experimental schedulers with completely different internal structuring. A scheduler call sched_set_concurrency(kg, N) has been added that notifies teh scheduler that no more than N threads from that ksegrp should be allowed to be on concurrently scheduled. This is also used to enforce 'fainess' at this time so that a ksegrp with 10000 threads can not swamp a the run queue and force out a process with 1 thread, since the current code will not set the concurrency above NCPU, and both schedulers will not allow more than that many onto the system run queue at a time. Each scheduler should eventualy develop their own methods to do this now that they are effectively separated. Rejig libthr's kernel interface to follow the same code paths as linkse for scope system threads. This has slightly hurt libthr's performance but I will work to recover as much of it as I can. Thread exit code has been cleaned up greatly. exit and exec code now transitions a process back to 'standard non-threaded mode' before taking the next step.

This can happen if we go to sleep for longer than 6 seconds. In this case, we'll just clear the runtime and set the sleep time to the max. - Define a new function, sched_interact_fork() which updates the slp+runtime of a newly forked thread. We want to limit the amount of history retained from the parent so that we learn the child's behavior quickly. We don't, however want to decay it to nothing. Previously, we would simply divide each parameter by 100 whenever we forked. After a few forks the values would reach 0 and tasks would not be considered interactive. - Add another KTR entry, cleanup some existing entries. - Remove a useless sched_interact_update() from sched_priority().

It seems that in testing non- interactive tasks are hardly ever near there and expensive interactive tasks can sometimes surpass it. This area needs more testing. - Remove an unnecessary KTR. - Fix a case where an idle thread that had an elevated priority due to priority prop. would be placed back on the idle queue. - Delay setting NEEDRESCHED until userret() for threads that haad their priority elevated while in kernel. This gives us the same context switch optimization as SCHED_4BSD. - Limit the child's slice to 1 in sched_fork_kse() so we detect its behavior more quickly. - Inhert some of the run/slp time from the child in sched_exit_ksegrp(). - Redo some of the priority comparisons so they are more clear. - Throttle the frequency of sched_pctcpu_update() so that rounding errors do not make it invalid.

Add a comment describing what it does. - Remove a stale XXX comment, the nice should not impact the interactivity, nice adjustments only effect non-interactive tasks in ULE. - Don't allow nice -20 tasks to totally starve nice 0 tasks. Give them at least SCHED_SLICE_MIN ticks. We still allow nice 0 tasks to starve nice +20 tasks as intended.

/*
Refactor a bunch of scheduler code to give basically the same behaviour but with slightly cleaned up interfaces. The KSE structure has become the same as the "per thread scheduler private data" structure. In order to not make the diffs too great one is #defined as the other at this time. The KSE (or td_sched) structure is now allocated per thread and has no allocation code of its own. Concurrency for a KSEGRP is now kept track of via a simple pair of counters rather than using KSE structures as tokens. Since the KSE structure is different in each scheduler, kern_switch.c is now included at the end of each scheduler. Nothing outside the scheduler knows the contents of the KSE (aka td_sched) structure. The fields in the ksegrp structure that are to do with the scheduler's queueing mechanisms are now moved to the kg_sched structure. (per ksegrp scheduler private data structure). In other words how the scheduler queues and keeps track of threads is no-one's business except the scheduler's. This should allow people to write experimental schedulers with completely different internal structuring. A scheduler call sched_set_concurrency(kg, N) has been added that notifies teh scheduler that no more than N threads from that ksegrp should be allowed to be on concurrently scheduled. This is also used to enforce 'fainess' at this time so that a ksegrp with 10000 threads can not swamp a the run queue and force out a process with 1 thread, since the current code will not set the concurrency above NCPU, and both schedulers will not allow more than that many onto the system run queue at a time. Each scheduler should eventualy develop their own methods to do this now that they are effectively separated. Rejig libthr's kernel interface to follow the same code paths as linkse for scope system threads. This has slightly hurt libthr's performance but I will work to recover as much of it as I can. Thread exit code has been cleaned up greatly. exit and exec code now transitions a process back to 'standard non-threaded mode' before taking the next step.

Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit. Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

Threads are transferable only as long as they are on the run queue. - Previously, we adjusted our load balancing based on the transferable count minus the number of actual cpus. This was done to account for the threads which were likely to be running. All of this logic is simpler now that transferable accounts for only those threads which can actually be taken. Updated various places in sched_add() and kseq_balance() to account for this. - Rename kseq_{add,rem} to kseq_load_{add,rem} to reflect what they're really doing. The load is accounted for seperately from the runq because the load is accounted for even as the thread is running. - Fix a bug in sched_class() where we weren't properly using the PRI_BASE() version of the kg_pri_class. - Add a large comment that describes the impact of a seemingly simple conditional in sched_add(). - Also in sched_add() check the transferable count and KSE_CAN_MIGRATE() prior to checking kseq_idle. This reduces the frequency of access for kseq_idle which is a shared resource.

All SMT cores on the same physical cpu are added to a group. - Don't place a cpu into the kseq_idle bitmask until all cpus in that group have idled. - Prefer idle groups over idle group members in the new kseq_transfer() function. In this way we will prefer to balance load across full cores rather than add further load a partial core. - Before a cpu goes idle, check the other group members for threads. Since SMT cpus may freely share threads, this is cheap. - SMT cores may be individually pinned and bound to now. This contrasts the old mechanism where binding or pinning would have allowed a thread to run on any available cpu. - Remove some unnecessary logic from sched_switch(). Priority propagation should be properly taken care of in sched_prio() now.

Each balancer has its own timeout. - Pick a random place in the list of groups to start the search for lowest and highest group loads. This prevents us from prefering a group based on numeric position. - Use a nasty hack to stop us from preferring cpu 0. The problem is that softclock always runs on cpu 0, so it always has a little extra load. We ignore this load in the balancer for now.

- Now that we have kseq groups, balance them seperately. - The new sched_balance_groups() function does intra-group balancing while sched_balance() balances the available groups. - Pick a random time between 0 ticks and hz * 2 ticks to restart each balancing process. Each balancer has its own timeout. - Pick a random place in the list of groups to start the search for lowest and highest group loads. This prevents us from prefering a group based on numeric position. - Use a nasty hack to stop us from preferring cpu 0. The problem is that softclock always runs on cpu 0, so it always has a little extra load. We ignore this load in the balancer for now. In the future softclock should run on a random cpu and these hacks can go away.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit.

- Introduce kseq_runq_{add,rem}() which are used to insert and remove kses from the run queues. Also, on SMP, we track the transferable count here. Threads are transferable only as long as they are on the run queue. - Previously, we adjusted our load balancing based on the transferable count minus the number of actual cpus. This was done to account for the threads which were likely to be running. All of this logic is simpler now that transferable accounts for only those threads which can actually be taken. Updated various places in sched_add() and kseq_balance() to account for this. - Rename kseq_{add,rem} to kseq_load_{add,rem} to reflect what they're really doing. The load is accounted for seperately from the runq because the load is accounted for even as the thread is running. - Fix a bug in sched_class() where we weren't properly using the PRI_BASE() version of the kg_pri_class. - Add a large comment that describes the impact of a seemingly simple conditional in sched_add(). - Also in sched_add() check the transferable count and KSE_CAN_MIGRATE() prior to checking kseq_idle.

- Add static to local functions and data where it was missing. - Add an IPI based mechanism for migrating kses. This mechanism is broken down into several components. This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly.

Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit.

- Add static to local functions and data where it was missing. - Add an IPI based mechanism for migrating kses. This mechanism is broken down into several components. This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit. Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors.

Its only purpose was to interpret one flag and turn it into an int. Do the right thing and interpret the flag in sched_add() instead. - Pass the flag argument to sched_add() to kseq_runq_add() so that we can get the SRQ_PREEMPT optimization too. - Add a KEF_INTERNAL flag. If KEF_INTERNAL is set we don't adjust the SLOT counts, otherwise the slot counts are adjusted as soon as we enter sched_add() or sched_rem() rather than when the thread is actually placed on the run queue. This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly. If stathz != hz we can't expect sched_clock() to be called on the exact tick count that we're anticipating. - Rearrange sched_switch() a bit to reduce indentation levels.

- Use a new flag, KEF_XFERABLE, to record with certainty that this kse had contributed to the transferable load count. This prevents any potential problems with sched_pin() being used around calls to setrunqueue(). - Change the sched_add() load balancing algorithm to try to migrate on wakeup. This attempts to place threads that communicate with each other on the same CPU. - Don't clear the idle counts in kseq_transfer(), let the cpus do that when they call sched_add() from kseq_assign(). - Correct a few out of date comments. - Make sure the ke_cpu field is correct when we preempt. - Call kseq_assign() from sched_clock() to catch any assignments that were done without IPI. Presently all assignments are done with an IPI, but I'm trying a patch that limits that. - Don't migrate a thread if it is still runnable in sched_add(). Previously, this could only happen for KSE threads, but due to changes to sched_switch() all threads went through this path. - Remove some code that was added with preemption but is not necessary.

- Add static to local functions and data where it was missing. - Add an IPI based mechanism for migrating kses. This mechanism is broken down into several components. This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit. Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

- Fix a long standing problem where an ithread would not honor sched_pin(). - Remove the sched_add wrapper that used sched_add_internal() as a backend. Its only purpose was to interpret one flag and turn it into an int. Do the right thing and interpret the flag in sched_add() instead. - Pass the flag argument to sched_add() to kseq_runq_add() so that we can get the SRQ_PREEMPT optimization too. - Add a KEF_INTERNAL flag. If KEF_INTERNAL is set we don't adjust the SLOT counts, otherwise the slot counts are adjusted as soon as we enter sched_add() or sched_rem() rather than when the thread is actually placed on the run queue. This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit. Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

- Fix a long standing problem where an ithread would not honor sched_pin(). - Remove the sched_add wrapper that used sched_add_internal() as a backend. Its only purpose was to interpret one flag and turn it into an int. Do the right thing and interpret the flag in sched_add() instead. - Pass the flag argument to sched_add() to kseq_runq_add() so that we can get the SRQ_PREEMPT optimization too. - Add a KEF_INTERNAL flag. If KEF_INTERNAL is set we don't adjust the SLOT counts, otherwise the slot counts are adjusted as soon as we enter sched_add() or sched_rem() rather than when the thread is actually placed on the run queue. This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly. If stathz != hz we can't expect sched_clock() to be called on the exact tick count that we're anticipating. - Rearrange sched_switch() a bit to reduce indentation levels.

All SMT cores on the same physical cpu are added to a group. - Don't place a cpu into the kseq_idle bitmask until all cpus in that group have idled. - Prefer idle groups over idle group members in the new kseq_transfer() function. In this way we will prefer to balance load across full cores rather than add further load a partial core. - Before a cpu goes idle, check the other group members for threads. Since SMT cpus may freely share threads, this is cheap. - SMT cores may be individually pinned and bound to now. This contrasts the old mechanism where binding or pinning would have allowed a thread to run on any available cpu. - Remove some unnecessary logic from sched_switch(). Priority propagation should be properly taken care of in sched_prio() now.

This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit. Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

- Add a SYSCTL node for the ule scheduler. - Allow user adjustable min and max time slices (suggested by hiten). - Change the SLP_RUN_MAX to 100ms from 2 seconds so that we learn whether a process is interactive or not much more quickly. - Place a process on the current run queue if it is interactive or if it is running at an interrupt thread priority due to priority prop. - Use the 'current' timeshare queue for interrupt threads, realtime threads, and idle threads that are running at higher priority due to priority prop. This fixes problems where priorities would have been elevated but we would not check the timeshare run queue until other lower priority tasks were no longer runnable. - Keep an array of loads indexed by the priority class as well as a global load. - Keep an bucket of nice values with a count of the number of kses currently runnable with that nice value. - Keep track of the minimum nice value of any running thread. - Remove the unused short term sleep accounting. I was attempting to use this for load balancing but it didn't work out. - Define a kseq_print() for use with debugging. - Add KTR debugging at useful places so we can easily debug slice and priority assignment. - Decouple the runq assignment from the kseq assignment. kseq_add now keeps track of statistics. This is done so that the nice and load is still tracked for the currently running process. Previously if a niced process was added while a non nice process was running the niced process would still get a slice since it was not aware of the unnice process. - Make adjustments for the sched api changes.

- Make some context switches conditional on SCHED_STRICT_RESCHED. This may have some negative effect on interactivity but it yields great perf. gains. This also brings the conditions under which ULE context switches inline with SCHED_4BSD. - Define some new kseq_* functions for manipulating the run queue. - Add a new kseq member ksq_rslices and ksq_bload. rslices is the sum of the slices of runnable kses. This will be used for push load balance decisions. bload is the number of threads blocked waiting on IO.

- Add in support for KSEs with 0 slice values on the run queue. If we try to select a KSE with a slice of 0 we will update its slice and insert it onto the next queue. - Pass the KSE instead of the ksegrp into sched_slice(). This more accurately reflects the behavior of the code. Slices are granted to kses. - Add a function kseq_nice_min() which finds the smallest nice value assigned to the kseg of any KSE on the queue. - Rewrite the logic in sched_slice(). Add a large comment describing the new slice selection scheme. To summarize, slices are assigned based on the nice value. Priorities are still calculated based on the nice and interactivity of a process. Slice sizes of 0 may be granted for KSEs whos nice is 20 or futher away from the lowest nice on the run queue. Other nice values are scaled across the range [min, min+20]. This fixes ULEs bad behavior with positively niced processes.

Each balancer has its own timeout. - Pick a random place in the list of groups to start the search for lowest and highest group loads.

Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit.

- Change sched_interact_update() to only accept slp+runtime values between 0 and SCHED_SLP_RUN_MAX * 2. This allows us to simplify the algorithm quite a bit. Before, it dealt with arbitrary values which required us to do nasty integer division tricks that didn't quite work out correctly. - Chnage sched_wakeup() to detect conditions where the slp+runtime could exceed SCHED_SLP_RUN_MAX * 2. This can happen if we go to sleep for longer than 6 seconds. In this case, we'll just clear the runtime and set the sleep time to the max. - Define a new function, sched_interact_fork() which updates the slp+runtime of a newly forked thread. We want to limit the amount of history retained from the parent so that we learn the child's behavior quickly. We don't, however want to decay it to nothing. Previously, we would simply divide each parameter by 100 whenever we forked. After a few forks the values would reach 0 and tasks would not be considered interactive. - Add another KTR entry, cleanup some existing entries. - Remove a useless sched_interact_update() from sched_priority().

- Add a new function "sched_interact_update()" that scales back the sleep and run time. - Scale the sleep and run time back via sched_interact_update() in more places. This is to keep the statistic more accurate. - Charge a parent one tick for forking a child. - Add only the run time and not the sleep time to the parents kg when a thread exits. This allows us to give a penalty for having an expensive thread exit but does not give a bonus for having an interactive thread exit. - Change the SLP_RUN_THROTTLE to limit us to 4/5th and not 1/2. - Change the SLP_RUN_MAX to two seconds. This keeps bursty interactive applications like mozilla and openoffice in the interactive range even through expensive tasks. - Recalculate the slice after every sleep. This ensures that once a task has been marked interactive it only has a slice of 1 at the risk of giving tasks that sleep for a very brief period a longer time slice.

- Add a new function "sched_interact_update()" that scales back the sleep and run time. - Scale the sleep and run time back via sched_interact_update() in more places. This is to keep the statistic more accurate. - Charge a parent one tick for forking a child. - Add only the run time and not the sleep time to the parents kg when a thread exits. This allows us to give a penalty for having an expensive thread exit but does not give a bonus for having an interactive thread exit. - Change the SLP_RUN_THROTTLE to limit us to 4/5th and not 1/2. - Change the SLP_RUN_MAX to two seconds. This keeps bursty interactive applications like mozilla and openoffice in the interactive range even through expensive tasks. - Recalculate the slice after every sleep. This ensures that once a task has been marked interactive it only has a slice of 1 at the risk of giving tasks that sleep for a very brief period a longer time slice.

Before, it dealt with arbitrary values which required us to do nasty integer division tricks that didn't quite work out correctly. - Chnage sched_wakeup() to detect conditions where the slp+runtime could exceed SCHED_SLP_RUN_MAX * 2. This can happen if we go to sleep for longer than 6 seconds. In this case, we'll just clear the runtime and set the sleep time to the max. - Define a new function, sched_interact_fork() which updates the slp+runtime of a newly forked thread. We want to limit the amount of history retained from the parent so that we learn the child's behavior quickly. We don't, however want to decay it to nothing. Previously, we would simply divide each parameter by 100 whenever we forked. After a few forks the values would reach 0 and tasks would not be considered interactive. - Add another KTR entry, cleanup some existing entries. - Remove a useless sched_interact_update() from sched_priority(). This is already done by the callers that require it.

Presently all assignments are done with an IPI, but I'm trying a patch that limits that. - Don't migrate a thread if it is still runnable in sched_add().

The KSE (or td_sched) structure is now allocated per thread and has no allocation code of its own. Concurrency for a KSEGRP is now kept track of via a simple pair of counters rather than using KSE structures as tokens. Since the KSE structure is different in each scheduler, kern_switch.c is now included at the end of each scheduler. Nothing outside the scheduler knows the contents of the KSE (aka td_sched) structure. The fields in the ksegrp structure that are to do with the scheduler's queueing mechanisms are now moved to the kg_sched structure. (per ksegrp scheduler private data structure). In other words how the scheduler queues and keeps track of threads is no-one's business except the scheduler's. This should allow people to write experimental schedulers with completely different internal structuring. A scheduler call sched_set_concurrency(kg, N) has been added that notifies teh scheduler that no more than N threads from that ksegrp should be allowed to be on concurrently scheduled. This is also used to enforce 'fainess' at this time so that a ksegrp with 10000 threads can not swamp a the run queue and force out a process with 1 thread, since the current code will not set the concurrency above NCPU, and both schedulers will not allow more than that many onto the system run queue at a time. Each scheduler should eventualy develop their own methods to do this now that they are effectively separated. Rejig libthr's kernel interface to follow the same code paths as linkse for scope system threads. This has slightly hurt libthr's performance but I will work to recover as much of it as I can. Thread exit code has been cleaned up greatly. exit and exec code now transitions a process back to 'standard non-threaded mode' before taking the next step.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit. Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

- Add a SYSCTL node for the ule scheduler. - Allow user adjustable min and max time slices (suggested by hiten). - Change the SLP_RUN_MAX to 100ms from 2 seconds so that we learn whether a process is interactive or not much more quickly. - Place a process on the current run queue if it is interactive or if it is running at an interrupt thread priority due to priority prop. - Use the 'current' timeshare queue for interrupt threads, realtime threads, and idle threads that are running at higher priority due to priority prop. This fixes problems where priorities would have been elevated but we would not check the timeshare run queue until other lower priority tasks were no longer runnable. - Keep an array of loads indexed by the priority class as well as a global load. - Keep an bucket of nice values with a count of the number of kses currently runnable with that nice value. - Keep track of the minimum nice value of any running thread. - Remove the unused short term sleep accounting. I was attempting to use this for load balancing but it didn't work out. - Define a kseq_print() for use with debugging. - Add KTR debugging at useful places so we can easily debug slice and priority assignment. - Decouple the runq assignment from the kseq assignment. kseq_add now keeps track of statistics. This is done so that the nice and load is still tracked for the currently running process. Previously if a niced process was added while a non nice process was running the niced process would still get a slice since it was not aware of the unnice process. - Make adjustments for the sched api changes.

- Add static to local functions and data where it was missing. - Add an IPI based mechanism for migrating kses. This mechanism is broken down into several components. This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

It follows the same algorithm but in a slightly more correct way. Previously values above half were incorrect. - Lower the interactivity threshold to 20. It seems that in testing non- interactive tasks are hardly ever near there and expensive interactive tasks can sometimes surpass it. This area needs more testing. - Remove an unnecessary KTR. - Fix a case where an idle thread that had an elevated priority due to priority prop. would be placed back on the idle queue. - Delay setting NEEDRESCHED until userret() for threads that haad their priority elevated while in kernel. This gives us the same context switch optimization as SCHED_4BSD. - Limit the child's slice to 1 in sched_fork_kse() so we detect its behavior more quickly. - Inhert some of the run/slp time from the child in sched_exit_ksegrp(). - Redo some of the priority comparisons so they are more clear. - Throttle the frequency of sched_pctcpu_update() so that rounding errors do not make it invalid.

Rework the interface between priority propagation (lending) and the schedulers a bit to ensure more correct handling of priorities and fewer priority inversions: - Add two functions to the sched(9) API to handle priority lending: sched_lend_prio() and sched_unlend_prio(). The turnstile code uses these functions to ask the scheduler to lend a thread a set priority and to tell the scheduler when it thinks it is ok for a thread to stop borrowing priority. The unlend case is slightly complex in that the turnstile code tells the scheduler what the minimum priority of the thread needs to be to satisfy the requirements of any other threads blocked on locks owned by the thread in question. The scheduler then decides where the thread can go back to normal mode (if it's normal priority is high enough to satisfy the pending lock requests) or it it should continue to use the priority specified to the sched_unlend_prio() call. This involves adding a new per-thread flag TDF_BORROWING that replaces the ULE-only kse flag for priority elevation. - Schedulers now refuse to lower the priority of a thread that is currently borrowing another therad's priority. - If a scheduler changes the priority of a thread that is currently sitting on a turnstile, it will call a new function turnstile_adjust() to inform the turnstile code of the change. This function resorts the thread on the priority list of the turnstile if needed, and if the thread ends up at the head of the list (due to having the highest priority) and its priority was raised, then it will propagate that new priority to the owner of the lock it is blocked on. Some additional fixes specific to the 4BSD scheduler include: - Common code for updating the priority of a thread when the user priority of its associated kse group has been consolidated in a new static function resetpriority_thread(). One change to this function is that it will now only adjust the priority of a thread if it already has a time sharing priority, thus preserving any boosts from a tsleep() until the thread returns to userland. Also, resetpriority() no longer calls maybe_resched() on each thread in the group. Instead, the code calling resetpriority() is responsible for calling resetpriority_thread() on any threads that need to be updated. - schedcpu() now uses resetpriority_thread() instead of just calling sched_prio() directly after it updates a kse group's user priority. - sched_clock() now uses resetpriority_thread() rather than writing directly to td_priority. - sched_nice() now updates all the priorities of the threads after the group priority has been adjusted.

Rework the interface between priority propagation (lending) and the schedulers a bit to ensure more correct handling of priorities and fewer priority inversions: - Add two functions to the sched(9) API to handle priority lending: sched_lend_prio() and sched_unlend_prio(). The turnstile code uses these functions to ask the scheduler to lend a thread a set priority and to tell the scheduler when it thinks it is ok for a thread to stop borrowing priority. The unlend case is slightly complex in that the turnstile code tells the scheduler what the minimum priority of the thread needs to be to satisfy the requirements of any other threads blocked on locks owned by the thread in question. The scheduler then decides where the thread can go back to normal mode (if it's normal priority is high enough to satisfy the pending lock requests) or it it should continue to use the priority specified to the sched_unlend_prio() call. This involves adding a new per-thread flag TDF_BORROWING that replaces the ULE-only kse flag for priority elevation. - Schedulers now refuse to lower the priority of a thread that is currently borrowing another therad's priority. - If a scheduler changes the priority of a thread that is currently sitting on a turnstile, it will call a new function turnstile_adjust() to inform the turnstile code of the change. This function resorts the thread on the priority list of the turnstile if needed, and if the thread ends up at the head of the list (due to having the highest priority) and its priority was raised, then it will propagate that new priority to the owner of the lock it is blocked on. Some additional fixes specific to the 4BSD scheduler include: - Common code for updating the priority of a thread when the user priority of its associated kse group has been consolidated in a new static function resetpriority_thread(). One change to this function is that it will now only adjust the priority of a thread if it already has a time sharing priority, thus preserving any boosts from a tsleep() until the thread returns to userland. Also, resetpriority() no longer calls maybe_resched() on each thread in the group. Instead, the code calling resetpriority() is responsible for calling resetpriority_thread() on any threads that need to be updated. - schedcpu() now uses resetpriority_thread() instead of just calling sched_prio() directly after it updates a kse group's user priority. - sched_clock() now uses resetpriority_thread() rather than writing directly to td_priority. - sched_nice() now updates all the priorities of the threads after the group priority has been adjusted.

- Fix a long standing problem where an ithread would not honor sched_pin(). - Remove the sched_add wrapper that used sched_add_internal() as a backend. Its only purpose was to interpret one flag and turn it into an int. Do the right thing and interpret the flag in sched_add() instead. - Pass the flag argument to sched_add() to kseq_runq_add() so that we can get the SRQ_PREEMPT optimization too. - Add a KEF_INTERNAL flag. If KEF_INTERNAL is set we don't adjust the SLOT counts, otherwise the slot counts are adjusted as soon as we enter sched_add() or sched_rem() rather than when the thread is actually placed on the run queue. This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly. If stathz != hz we can't expect sched_clock() to be called on the exact tick count that we're anticipating. - Rearrange sched_switch() a bit to reduce indentation levels.

- Fix the case where we're not preempting but there is already a newtd as this happens via thread_switchout(). I don't particularly like the structure of the code here. We twice call out to thread code when a thread is voluntarily switching. Once to thread_switchout() and once to slot_fill(), while sched_4BSD does even more work which is redundant to select another thread to use our remaining slice. This should be simplified in the future, but for now I'm only going to fix the bug not the bad design.

- Use a new flag, KEF_XFERABLE, to record with certainty that this kse had contributed to the transferable load count. This prevents any potential problems with sched_pin() being used around calls to setrunqueue(). - Change the sched_add() load balancing algorithm to try to migrate on wakeup. This attempts to place threads that communicate with each other on the same CPU. - Don't clear the idle counts in kseq_transfer(), let the cpus do that when they call sched_add() from kseq_assign(). - Correct a few out of date comments. - Make sure the ke_cpu field is correct when we preempt. - Call kseq_assign() from sched_clock() to catch any assignments that were done without IPI. Presently all assignments are done with an IPI, but I'm trying a patch that limits that. - Don't migrate a thread if it is still runnable in sched_add(). Previously, this could only happen for KSE threads, but due to changes to sched_switch() all threads went through this path. - Remove some code that was added with preemption but is not necessary.

Switch the sleep/wakeup and condition variable implementations to use the sleep queue interface: - Sleep queues attempt to merge some of the benefits of both sleep queues and condition variables. Having sleep qeueus in a hash table avoids having to allocate a queue head for each wait channel. Thus, struct cv has shrunk down to just a single char * pointer now. However, the hash table does not hold threads directly, but queue heads. This means that once you have located a queue in the hash bucket, you no longer have to walk the rest of the hash chain looking for threads. Instead, you have a list of all the threads sleeping on that wait channel. - Outside of the sleepq code and the sleep/cv code the kernel no longer differentiates between cv's and sleep/wakeup. For example, calls to abortsleep() and cv_abort() are replaced with a call to sleepq_abort(). Thus, the TDF_CVWAITQ flag is removed. Also, calls to unsleep() and cv_waitq_remove() have been replaced with calls to sleepq_remove(). - The sched_sleep() function no longer accepts a priority argument as sleep's no longer inherently bump the priority. Instead, this is soley a propery of msleep() which explicitly calls sched_prio() before blocking. - The TDF_ONSLEEPQ flag has been dropped as it was never used. The associated TDF_SET_ONSLEEPQ and TDF_CLR_ON_SLEEPQ macros have also been dropped and replaced with a single explicit clearing of td_wchan. TD_SET_ONSLEEPQ() would really have only made sense if it had taken the wait channel and message as arguments anyway. Now that that only happens in one place, a macro would be overkill.

Previously if a niced process was added while a non nice process was running the niced process would still get a slice since it was not aware of the unnice process. - Make adjustments for the sched api changes.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit.

Refactor a bunch of scheduler code to give basically the same behaviour but with slightly cleaned up interfaces. The KSE structure has become the same as the "per thread scheduler private data" structure. In order to not make the diffs too great one is #defined as the other at this time. The KSE (or td_sched) structure is now allocated per thread and has no allocation code of its own. Concurrency for a KSEGRP is now kept track of via a simple pair of counters rather than using KSE structures as tokens. Since the KSE structure is different in each scheduler, kern_switch.c is now included at the end of each scheduler. Nothing outside the scheduler knows the contents of the KSE (aka td_sched) structure. The fields in the ksegrp structure that are to do with the scheduler's queueing mechanisms are now moved to the kg_sched structure. (per ksegrp scheduler private data structure). In other words how the scheduler queues and keeps track of threads is no-one's business except the scheduler's. This should allow people to write experimental schedulers with completely different internal structuring. A scheduler call sched_set_concurrency(kg, N) has been added that notifies teh scheduler that no more than N threads from that ksegrp should be allowed to be on concurrently scheduled. This is also used to enforce 'fainess' at this time so that a ksegrp with 10000 threads can not swamp a the run queue and force out a process with 1 thread, since the current code will not set the concurrency above NCPU, and both schedulers will not allow more than that many onto the system run queue at a time. Each scheduler should eventualy develop their own methods to do this now that they are effectively separated. Rejig libthr's kernel interface to follow the same code paths as linkse for scope system threads. This has slightly hurt libthr's performance but I will work to recover as much of it as I can.

- Remove the ksq_loads[] array. We are only interested in three counts, the total load, the timeshare load, and the number of threads that can be migrated to another cpu. Account for these seperately. - Introduce a KSE_CAN_MIGRATE() macro which determines whether or not a KSE can be migrated to another CPU. Currently, this only checks to see if we're an interrupt handler. Eventually this will also be used to support CPU binding.

- Introduce kseq_runq_{add,rem}() which are used to insert and remove kses from the run queues. Also, on SMP, we track the transferable count here. Threads are transferable only as long as they are on the run queue. - Previously, we adjusted our load balancing based on the transferable count minus the number of actual cpus. This was done to account for the threads which were likely to be running. All of this logic is simpler now that transferable accounts for only those threads which can actually be taken. Updated various places in sched_add() and kseq_balance() to account for this. - Rename kseq_{add,rem} to kseq_load_{add,rem} to reflect what they're really doing. The load is accounted for seperately from the runq because the load is accounted for even as the thread is running. - Fix a bug in sched_class() where we weren't properly using the PRI_BASE() version of the kg_pri_class. - Add a large comment that describes the impact of a seemingly simple conditional in sched_add(). - Also in sched_add() check the transferable count and KSE_CAN_MIGRATE() prior to checking kseq_idle. This reduces the frequency of access for kseq_idle which is a shared resource.

This helps balance cpus better in cases where process turnover is high.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit.

If KEF_INTERNAL is set we don't adjust the SLOT counts, otherwise the slot counts are adjusted as soon as we enter sched_add() or sched_rem() rather than when the thread is actually placed on the run queue. This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly.

This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit.

Do the right thing and interpret the flag in sched_add() instead. - Pass the flag argument to sched_add() to kseq_runq_add() so that we can get the SRQ_PREEMPT optimization too. - Add a KEF_INTERNAL flag. If KEF_INTERNAL is set we don't adjust the SLOT counts, otherwise the slot counts are adjusted as soon as we enter sched_add() or sched_rem() rather than when the thread is actually placed on the run queue. This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly.

- Change sched_interact_update() to only accept slp+runtime values between 0 and SCHED_SLP_RUN_MAX * 2. This allows us to simplify the algorithm quite a bit. Before, it dealt with arbitrary values which required us to do nasty integer division tricks that didn't quite work out correctly. - Chnage sched_wakeup() to detect conditions where the slp+runtime could exceed SCHED_SLP_RUN_MAX * 2. This can happen if we go to sleep for longer than 6 seconds. In this case, we'll just clear the runtime and set the sleep time to the max. - Define a new function, sched_interact_fork() which updates the slp+runtime of a newly forked thread. We want to limit the amount of history retained from the parent so that we learn the child's behavior quickly. We don't, however want to decay it to nothing. Previously, we would simply divide each parameter by 100 whenever we forked. After a few forks the values would reach 0 and tasks would not be considered interactive. - Add another KTR entry, cleanup some existing entries. - Remove a useless sched_interact_update() from sched_priority(). This is already done by the callers that require it.

This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

- Use a new flag, KEF_XFERABLE, to record with certainty that this kse had contributed to the transferable load count. This prevents any potential problems with sched_pin() being used around calls to setrunqueue(). - Change the sched_add() load balancing algorithm to try to migrate on wakeup. This attempts to place threads that communicate with each other on the same CPU. - Don't clear the idle counts in kseq_transfer(), let the cpus do that when they call sched_add() from kseq_assign(). - Correct a few out of date comments. - Make sure the ke_cpu field is correct when we preempt. - Call kseq_assign() from sched_clock() to catch any assignments that were done without IPI. Presently all assignments are done with an IPI, but I'm trying a patch that limits that. - Don't migrate a thread if it is still runnable in sched_add(). Previously, this could only happen for KSE threads, but due to changes to sched_switch() all threads went through this path. - Remove some code that was added with preemption but is not necessary.

ts->ts_cpu = PCPU_GET(cpuid);
- Add static to local functions and data where it was missing. - Add an IPI based mechanism for migrating kses. This mechanism is broken down into several components. This is intended to reduce cache thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's run queues. - kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a standard queue. - kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not added to the run queue yet. - In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(), if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly. - In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc. - In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is available. - In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI us if they have work for us to do. - In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq. - Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into consideration. - No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last argument. - Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding. - Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with before.

- Introduce a new flag KEF_HOLD that prevents sched_add() from doing a migration. Use this in sched_prio() and sched_switch() to stop us from migrating threads that are in short term sleeps or are runnable. These extra migrations were added in the patches to support KSE. - Only set NEEDRESCHED if the thread we're adding in sched_add() is a lower priority and is being placed on the current queue. - Fix some minor whitespace problems.

- Move contents of sched_add() into a sched_add_internal() function that takes an argument to specify if it should preempt or not. Don't preempt when sched_add_internal() is called from kseq_idled() or kseq_assign() as in those cases we are about to call mi_switch() anyways. Also, doing so during the first context switch on an AP leads to a NULL pointer deref because curthread is NULL. - Reenable preemption for ULE. Submitted by: Taku YAMAMOTO taku at tackymt.homeip.net

if (preemptive && maybe_preempt(td))
Implement preemption of kernel threads natively in the scheduler rather than as one-off hacks in various other parts of the kernel: - Add a function maybe_preempt() that is called from sched_add() to determine if a thread about to be added to a run queue should be preempted to directly. If it is not safe to preempt or if the new thread does not have a high enough priority, then the function returns false and sched_add() adds the thread to the run queue. If the thread should be preempted to but the current thread is in a nested critical section, then the flag TDF_OWEPREEMPT is set and the thread is added to the run queue. Otherwise, mi_switch() is called immediately and the thread is never added to the run queue since it is switch to directly. When exiting an outermost critical section, if TDF_OWEPREEMPT is set, then clear it and call mi_switch() to perform the deferred preemption. - Remove explicit preemption from ithread_schedule() as calling setrunqueue() now does all the correct work. This also removes the do_switch argument from ithread_schedule(). - Do not use the manual preemption code in mtx_unlock if the architecture supports native preemption. - Don't call mi_switch() in a loop during shutdown to give ithreads a chance to run if the architecture supports native preemption since the ithreads will just preempt DELAY(). - Don't call mi_switch() from the page zeroing idle thread for architectures that support native preemption as it is unnecessary. - Native preemption is enabled on the same archs that supported ithread preemption, namely alpha, i386, and amd64. This change should largely be a NOP for the default case as committed except that we will do fewer context switches in a few cases and will avoid the run queues completely when preempting.

Do the right thing and interpret the flag in sched_add() instead. - Pass the flag argument to sched_add() to kseq_runq_add() so that we can get the SRQ_PREEMPT optimization too. - Add a KEF_INTERNAL flag. If KEF_INTERNAL is set we don't adjust the SLOT counts, otherwise the slot counts are adjusted as soon as we enter sched_add() or sched_rem() rather than when the thread is actually placed on the run queue. This greatly simplifies the handling of slots. - Remove the explicit prevention of migration for ithreads on non-x86 platforms. This was never shown to have any real benefit. - Remove the unused class argument to KSE_CAN_MIGRATE(). - Add ktr points for thread migration events. - Fix a long standing bug on platforms which don't initialize the cpu topology. The ksg_maxid variable was never correctly set on these platforms which caused the long term load balancer to never inspect more than the first group or processor. - Fix another bug which prevented the long term load balancer from working properly. If stathz != hz we can't expect sched_clock() to be called on the exact tick count that we're anticipating. - Rearrange sched_switch() a bit to reduce indentation levels.

Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several. Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent.. Specifically, remove: Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was never fully utilised and made things overly complicated. All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs fair to unthreaded programs. Libpthread processes will already do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it. Also: Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow. This makes the code a lot more readable. The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works. The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit. Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

- Add support for CPU groups to ule. All SMT cores on the same physical cpu are added to a group. - Don't place a cpu into the kseq_idle bitmask until all cpus in that group have idled. - Prefer idle groups over idle group members in the new kseq_transfer() function. In this way we will prefer to balance load across full cores rather than add further load a partial core. - Before a cpu goes idle, check the other group members for threads. Since SMT cpus may freely share threads, this is cheap. - SMT cores may be individually pinned and bound to now. This contrasts the old mechanism where binding or pinning would have allowed a thread to run on any available cpu. - Remove some unnecessary logic from sched_switch(). Priority propagation should be properly taken care of in sched_prio() now.

Add scheduler CORE, the work I have done half a year ago, recent, I picked it up again. The scheduler is forked from ULE, but the algorithm to detect an interactive process is almost completely different with ULE, it comes from Linux paper "Understanding the Linux 2.6.8.1 CPU Scheduler", although I still use same word "score" as a priority boost in ULE scheduler. Briefly, the scheduler has following characteristic: 1. Timesharing process's nice value is seriously respected, timeslice and interaction detecting algorithm are based on nice value. 2. per-cpu scheduling queue and load balancing. 3. O(1) scheduling. 4. Some cpu affinity code in wakeup path. 5. Support POSIX SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR. Unlike scheduler 4BSD and ULE which using fuzzy RQ_PPQ, the scheduler uses 256 priority queues. Unlike ULE which using pull and push, the scheduelr uses pull method, the main reason is to let relative idle cpu do the work, but current the whole scheduler is protected by the big sched_lock, so the benefit is not visible, it really can be worse than nothing because all other cpu are locked out when we are doing balancing work, which the 4BSD scheduelr does not have this problem. The scheduler does not support hyperthreading very well, in fact, the scheduler does not make the difference between physical CPU and logical CPU, this should be improved in feature. The scheduler has priority inversion problem on MP machine, it is not good for realtime scheduling, it can cause realtime process starving. As a result, it seems the MySQL super-smack runs better on my Pentium-D machine when using libthr, despite on UP or SMP kernel.

Refactor a bunch of scheduler code to give basically the same behaviour but with slightly cleaned up interfaces. The KSE structure has become the same as the "per thread scheduler private data" structure. In order to not make the diffs too great one is #defined as the other at this time. The KSE (or td_sched) structure is now allocated per thread and has no allocation code of its own. Concurrency for a KSEGRP is now kept track of via a simple pair of counters rather than using KSE structures as tokens. Since the KSE structure is different in each scheduler, kern_switch.c is now included at the end of each scheduler. Nothing outside the scheduler knows the contents of the KSE (aka td_sched) structure. The fields in the ksegrp structure that are to do with the scheduler's queueing mechanisms are now moved to the kg_sched structure. (per ksegrp scheduler private data structure). In other words how the scheduler queues and keeps track of threads is no-one's business except the scheduler's. This should allow people to write experimental schedulers with completely different internal structuring. A scheduler call sched_set_concurrency(kg, N) has been added that notifies teh scheduler that no more than N threads from that ksegrp should be allowed to be on concurrently scheduled. This is also used to enforce 'fainess' at this time so that a ksegrp with 10000 threads can not swamp a the run queue and force out a process with 1 thread, since the current code will not set the concurrency above NCPU, and both schedulers will not allow more than that many onto the system run queue at a time. Each scheduler should eventualy develop their own methods to do this now that they are effectively separated. Rejig libthr's kernel interface to follow the same code paths as linkse for scope system threads. This has slightly hurt libthr's performance but I will work to recover as much of it as I can. Thread exit code has been cleaned up greatly. exit and exec code now transitions a process back to 'standard non-threaded mode' before taking the next step.
