[PATCH v4 00/10] steal tasks to improve CPU utilization
Date Thu, 6 Dec 2018 13:28:06 -0800
share 0
When a CPU has no more CFS tasks to run, and idle_balance() fails to
find a task, then attempt to steal a task from an overloaded CPU in the
same LLC. Maintain and use a bitmap of overloaded CPUs to efficiently
identify candidates. To minimize search time, steal the first migratable
task that is found when the bitmap is traversed. For fairness, search
for migratable tasks on an overloaded CPU in order of next to run.

This simple stealing yields a higher CPU utilization than idle_balance()
alone, because the search is cheap, so it may be called every time the CPU
is about to go idle. idle_balance() does more work because it searches
widely for the busiest queue, so to limit its CPU consumption, it declines
to search if the system is too busy. Simple stealing does not offload the
globally busiest queue, but it is much better than running nothing at all.

The bitmap of overloaded CPUs is a new type of sparse bitmap, designed to
reduce cache contention vs the usual bitmap when many threads concurrently
set, clear, and visit elements.

Patch 1 defines the sparsemask type and its operations.

Patches 2, 3, and 4 implement the bitmap of overloaded CPUs.

Patches 5 and 6 refactor existing code for a cleaner merge of later
patches.

Patches 7 and 8 implement task stealing using the overloaded CPUs bitmap.

Patch 9 disables stealing on systems with more than 2 NUMA nodes for the
time being because of performance regressions that are not due to stealing
per-se. See the patch description for details.

Patch 10 adds schedstats for comparing the new behavior to the old, and
provided as a convenience for developers only, not for integration.

The patch series is based on kernel 4.20.0-rc1. It compiles, boots, and
runs with/without each of CONFIG_SCHED_SMT, CONFIG_SMP, CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG,
and CONFIG_PREEMPT. It runs without error with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT +
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG + CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC + CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES +
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK + CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP. CPU hot plug and CPU
bandwidth control were tested.

Stealing improves utilization with only a modest CPU overhead in scheduler
code. In the following experiment, hackbench is run with varying numbers
of groups (40 tasks per group), and the delta in /proc/schedstat is shown
for each run, averaged per CPU, augmented with these non-standard stats:

%find - percent of time spent in old and new functions that search for
idle CPUs and tasks to steal and set the overloaded CPUs bitmap.

steal - number of times a task is stolen from another CPU.

8 44.441 99.86 0.11 389153 1616 387401 0.67 38190 7.6

Elapsed time improves by 8 to 36%, and CPU busy utilization is up
by 5 to 22% hitting 99% for 2 or more groups (80 or more tasks).
The cost is at most 0.4% more find time.

Additional performance results follow. A negative "speedup" is a
regression. Note: for all hackbench runs, sched_wakeup_granularity_ns
is set to 15 msec. Otherwise, preemptions increase at higher loads and
distort the comparison between baseline and new.
