[PATCH v3 0/3] Fix a couple of corner cases in feec() when using uclamp_max

[PATCH v3 0/3] Fix a couple of corner cases in feec() when using uclamp_max

[Qais Yousef]

Changes in v3:

	* Fix sign comparison problem in patch 1 (Thanks Vincent!)
	* Simplify comparison and remove function in patch 2 (Thanks Dietmar!)

Changes in v2:

	* Use long instead of unsigned long to keep the comparison simple
	  in spite of being inconsistent with how capacity type.
	* Fix missing termination parenthesis that caused build error.
	* Rebase on latest tip/sched/core and Vincent v5 of Unlink misift patch.

v1 link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230129161444.1674958-1-qyousef@layalina.io/
v2 link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230205224318.2035646-1-qyousef@layalina.io/

In v2 Dietmar has raised concerns about limitation in current EM calculations
that can end up packing more tasks on a cluster. While this is not ideal
situation and we need to fix it, but it is another independent problem that is
not introduced by this fix. I don't see a reason why we should couple them
rather than work on each problem independently. The packing behavior in
practice is actually not bad as if something is capped really hard, there's
a desire to keep them on this less performant clusters.

Patch 1 addresses a bug because forcing a task on a small CPU to honour
uclamp_max hint means we can end up with spare_capacity = 0; but the logic is
constructed such that spare_capacity = 0 leads to ignoring this CPU as
a candidate to compute_energy().

Patch 2 addresses a bug due to an optimization in feec() that could lead to
ignoring tasks whose uclamp_max = 0 but task_util(0) != 0.

Patch 3 adds a new tracepoint in compute_energy() as it was helpful in
debugging analyzing these two problems. It's generally useful to trace down
task placement decision based on EAS.

This is based on tip/sched/core.

  sched/uclamp: Set max_spare_cap_cpu even if max_spare_cap is 0
  sched/uclamp: Ignore (util == 0) optimization in feec() when
    p_util_max = 0
  sched/tp: Add new tracepoint to track compute energy computation

[PATCH v3 1/3] sched/uclamp: Set max_spare_cap_cpu even if max_spare_cap is 0

[Qais Yousef]

When uclamp_max is being used, the util of the task could be higher than
the spare capacity of the CPU, but due to uclamp_max value we force fit
it there.

The way the condition for checking for max_spare_cap in
find_energy_efficient_cpu() was constructed; it ignored any CPU that has
its spare_cap less than or _equal_ to max_spare_cap. Since we initialize
max_spare_cap to 0; this lead to never setting max_spare_cap_cpu and
hence ending up never performing compute_energy() for this cluster and
missing an opportunity for a better energy efficient placement to honour
uclamp_max setting.

	max_spare_cap = 0;
	cpu_cap = capacity_of(cpu) - task_util(p);  // 0 if task_util(p) is high

	...

	util_fits_cpu(...);		// will return true if uclamp_max forces it to fit

	...

	// this logic will fail to update max_spare_cap_cpu if cpu_cap is 0
	if (cpu_cap > max_spare_cap) {
		max_spare_cap = cpu_cap;
		max_spare_cap_cpu = cpu;
	}

prev_spare_cap suffers from a similar problem.

Fix the logic by converting the variables into long and treating -1
value as 'not populated' instead of 0 which is a viable and correct
spare capacity value. We need to be careful signed comparison is used
when comparing with cpu_cap in one of the conditions.

[PATCH v3 2/3] sched/uclamp: Ignore (util == 0) optimization in feec() when p_util_max = 0

[Qais Yousef]

find_energy_efficient_cpu() bails out early if effective util of the
task is 0 as the delta at this point will be zero and there's nothing
for EAS to do. When uclamp is being used, this could lead to wrong
decisions when uclamp_max is set to 0. In this case the task is capped
to performance point 0, but it is actually running and consuming energy
and we can benefit from EAS energy calculations.

Rework the condition so that it bails out for when util is actually 0 or
uclamp_min is requesting a higher performance point.

We can do that without needing to use uclamp_task_util(); remove it.

Fixes: d81304bc6193 ("sched/uclamp: Cater for uclamp in find_energy_efficient_cpu()'s early exit condition")

Thanks Vincent!

Ping in case this has fallen through the cracks. I hope it's good to be picked

You've probably missed to add the change that we discussed in v2:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230221120832.x642tqohxv5nascr@airbuntu/

The max_util and busy_time. This would help us in our tool.

Ah, I did indeed. Sorry about that. Will send v4 then.
