sched: Increase SCHED_LOAD_SCALE resolution
Introduce SCHED_LOAD_RESOLUTION, which scales is added to SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT and increases the resolution of SCHED_LOAD_SCALE. This patch sets the value of SCHED_LOAD_RESOLUTION to 10, scaling up the weights for all sched entities by a factor of 1024. With this extra resolution, we can handle deeper cgroup hiearchies and the scheduler can do better shares distribution and load load balancing on larger systems (especially for low weight task groups). This does not change the existing user interface, the scaled weights are only used internally. We do not modify prio_to_weight values or inverses, but use the original weights when calculating the inverse which is used to scale execution time delta in calc_delta_mine(). This ensures we do not lose accuracy when accounting time to the sched entities. Thanks to Nikunj Dadhania for fixing an bug in c_d_m() that broken fairness. Below is some analysis of the performance costs/improvements of this patch. 1. Micro-arch performance costs: Experiment was to run Ingo's pipe_test_100k 200 times with the task pinned to one cpu. I measured instruction, cycles and stalled-cycles for the runs. See: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1129232/focus=1129389 for more info. -tip (baseline): Performance counter stats for '/root/load-scale/pipe-test-100k' (200 runs): 964,991,769 instructions # 0.82 insns per cycle # 0.33 stalled cycles per insn # ( +- 0.05% ) 1,171,186,635 cycles # 0.000 GHz ( +- 0.08% ) 306,373,664 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.16% backend cycles idle ( +- 0.28% ) 314,933,621 stalled-cycles-frontend # 26.89% frontend cycles idle ( +- 0.34% ) 1.122405684 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.05% ) -tip+patches: Performance counter stats for './load-scale/pipe-test-100k' (200 runs): 963,624,821 instructions # 0.82 insns per cycle # 0.33 stalled cycles per insn # ( +- 0.04% ) 1,175,215,649 cycles # 0.000 GHz ( +- 0.08% ) 315,321,126 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.83% backend cycles idle ( +- 0.28% ) 316,835,873 stalled-cycles-frontend # 26.96% frontend cycles idle ( +- 0.29% ) 1.122238659 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.06% ) With this patch, instructions decrease by ~0.10% and cycles increase by 0.27%. This doesn't look statistically significant. The number of stalled cycles in the backend increased from 26.16% to 26.83%. This can be attributed to the shifts we do in c_d_m() and other places. The fraction of stalled cycles in the frontend remains about the same, at 26.96% compared to 26.89% in -tip. 2. Balancing low-weight task groups Test setup: run 50 tasks with random sleep/busy times (biased around 100ms) in a low weight container (with cpu.shares = 2). Measure %idle as reported by mpstat over a 10s window. -tip (baseline): 06:47:48 PM CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %steal %guest %idle intr/s 06:47:49 PM all 94.32 0.00 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.62 15888.00 06:47:50 PM all 94.57 0.00 0.62 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.81 16180.00 06:47:51 PM all 94.69 0.00 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.25 15966.00 06:47:52 PM all 95.81 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.19 16053.00 06:47:53 PM all 94.88 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.06 15984.00 06:47:54 PM all 93.31 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 6.69 15806.00 06:47:55 PM all 94.19 0.00 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.75 15896.00 06:47:56 PM all 92.87 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 7.13 15716.00 06:47:57 PM all 94.88 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.12 15982.00 06:47:58 PM all 95.44 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.56 16075.00 Average: all 94.49 0.01 0.08 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.42 15954.60 -tip+patches: 06:47:03 PM CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %steal %guest %idle intr/s 06:47:04 PM all 100.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 16630.00 06:47:05 PM all 99.69 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.31 16580.20 06:47:06 PM all 99.69 0.00 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.25 16596.00 06:47:07 PM all 99.20 0.00 0.74 0.00 0.00 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 17838.61 06:47:08 PM all 100.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 16540.00 06:47:09 PM all 100.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 16575.00 06:47:10 PM all 100.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 16614.00 06:47:11 PM all 99.94 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.06 16588.00 06:47:12 PM all 99.94 0.00 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 16593.00 06:47:13 PM all 99.94 0.00 0.06 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 16551.00 Average: all 99.84 0.00 0.09 0.00 0.00 0.01 0.00 0.00 0.06 16711.58 We see an improvement in idle% on the system (drops from 5.42% on -tip to 0.06% with the patches).
