Thomas Gleixner dba091b9e3 sched: Protect sched_rr_get_param() access to task->sched_class
sched_rr_get_param calls
task->sched_class->get_rr_interval(task) without protection
against a concurrent sched_setscheduler() call which modifies
task->sched_class.

Serialize the access with task_rq_lock(task) and hand the rq
pointer into get_rr_interval() as it's needed at least in the
sched_fair implementation.

Rusty Russell e2c8806304 cpumask: Simplify sched_rt.c
find_lowest_rq() wants to call pick_optimal_cpu() on the
intersection of sched_domain_span(sd) and lowest_mask.  Rather
than doing a cpus_and into a temporary, we can open-code it.

This actually makes the code slightly clearer, IMHO.

Ingo Molnar bcf08df3b2 sched: Fix cpupri build on !CONFIG_SMP
This build bug:

 In file included from kernel/sched.c:1765:
 kernel/sched_rt.c: In function ‘has_pushable_tasks’:
 kernel/sched_rt.c:1069: error: ‘struct rt_rq’ has no member named ‘pushable_tasks’
 kernel/sched_rt.c: In function ‘pick_next_task_rt’:
 kernel/sched_rt.c:1084: error: ‘struct rq’ has no member named ‘post_schedule’

Triggers because both pushable_tasks and post_schedule are
SMP-only fields.

Move pushable_tasks() to the SMP section and #ifdef the post_schedule use.

Peter Zijlstra 8f48894fcc sched: Add debug check to task_of()

Gregory Haskins 00aec93d10 sched: Fully integrate cpus_active_map and root-domain code
Reflect "active" cpus in the rq->rd->online field, instead of
the online_map.

The motivation is that things that use the root-domain code
(such as cpupri) only care about cpus classified as "active"
anyway. By synchronizing the root-domain state with the active
map, we allow several optimizations.

For instance, we can remove an extra cpumask_and from the
scheduler hotpath by utilizing rq->rd->online (since it is now
a cached version of cpu_active_map & rq->rd->span).

Gregory Haskins 3f029d3c6d sched: Enhance the pre/post scheduling logic
We currently have an explicit "needs_post" vtable method which
returns a stack variable for whether we should later run
post-schedule.  This leads to an awkward exchange of the
variable as it bubbles back up out of the context switch. Peter
Zijlstra observed that this information could be stored in the
run-queue itself instead of handled on the stack.

Therefore, we revert to the method of having context_switch
return void, and update an internal rq->post_schedule variable
when we require further processing.

In addition, we fix a race condition where we try to access
current->sched_class without holding the rq->lock.  This is
technically racy, as the sched-class could change out from
under us.  Instead, we reference the per-rq post_schedule
variable with the runqueue unlocked, but with preemption
disabled to see if we need to reacquire the rq->lock.

Finally, we clean the code up slightly by removing the #ifdef
CONFIG_SMP conditionals from the schedule() call, and implement
some inline helper functions instead.

This patch passes checkpatch, and rt-migrate.

Peter Zijlstra a1ba4d8ba9 sched_rt: Fix overload bug on rt group scheduling
Fixes an easily triggerable BUG() when setting process affinities.

Make sure to count the number of migratable tasks in the same place:
the root rt_rq. Otherwise the number doesn't make sense and we'll hit
the BUG in set_cpus_allowed_rt().

Also, make sure we only count tasks, not groups (this is probably
already taken care of by the fact that rt_se->nr_cpus_allowed will be 0
for groups, but be more explicit)

Ingo found a build error in the scheduler when RT_GROUP_SCHED was

that it is a little more streamlined and compiles under all permutations
of SMP, UP and RT_GROUP_SCHED.  It was boot tested on my 4-way x86_64
and it still passes preempt-test.

Mike Travis 6ca09dfc9f sched: put back some stack hog changes that were undone in kernel/sched.c
Impact: prevents panic from stack overflow on numa-capable machines.

Some of the "removal of stack hogs" changes in kernel/sched.c by using
node_to_cpumask_ptr were undone by the early cpumask API updates, and
causes a panic due to stack overflow.  This patch undoes those changes
by using cpumask_of_node() which returns a 'const struct cpumask *'.

In addition, cpu_coregoup_map is replaced with cpu_coregroup_mask further
reducing stack usage.  (Both of these updates removed 9 FIXME's!)

Also:
   Pick up some remaining changes from the old 'cpumask_t' functions to
   the new 'struct cpumask *' functions.

   Optimize memory traffic by allocating each percpu local_cpu_mask on the
   same node as the referring cpu.
