Subject: [PATCH] sched: Fix rq->nr_iowait ordering
Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2020 10:38:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201117093829.GD3121429@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201117083016.GK3121392@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net>


And poking at this reminded me of an order email from TJ that seems to
have stagnated.

Subject: sched: Fix rq->nr_iowait ordering
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2020 13:50:42 +0200

  schedule()				ttwu()
    deactivate_task();			  if (p->on_rq && ...) // false
					    atomic_dec(&task_rq(p)->nr_iowait);
    if (prev->in_iowait)
      atomic_inc(&rq->nr_iowait);

Allows nr_iowait to be decremented before it gets incremented,
resulting in more dodgy IO-wait numbers than usual.

Note that because we can now do ttwu_queue_wakelist() before
p->on_cpu==0, we lose the natural ordering and have to further delay
the decrement.

Fixes: Fixes: c6e7bd7afaeb ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
