-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2024-6787bcc41a 2024-02-19 02:27:28.284427 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : stalld Product : Fedora 39 Version : 1.19.1 Release : 1.fc39 URL : https://gitlab.com/rt-linux-tools/stalld/stalld.git Summary : Daemon that finds starving tasks and gives them a temporary boost Description : The stalld program monitors the set of system threads, looking for threads that are ready-to-run but have not been given processor time for some threshold period. When a starving thread is found, it is given a temporary boost using the SCHED_DEADLINE policy. The default is to allow 10 microseconds of runtime for 1 second of clock time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Add eBPF queue_track module as an alternative to parsing output of debugfs entry /sys/kernel/debug/sched/debug file for run queue information on runnable tasks. Conditionalize builds so that only supported arches get the eBPF feature. Currently this feature is not the default, but later releases will probably change the default to be the eBPF program. Ensure that all source has appropriate SPDX license tags Add the -a/--affinity option, restricting the stalld processing to the cpus listed in the supplied cpulist. Rename the source dir 'redhat' to be 'systemd' and remove RPM packaging logic from the source tree. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Feb 9 2024 Clark Williams <williams@xxxxxxxxxx> - 1.19.1 - Conditionalize BPF and queue_track build per architecture - clean up Makefile install logic and add .bz2 to .gitignore - modify Makefiles so install works with relative paths - rename 'redhat' to 'systemd' and remove redhat packaging logic - update SPDX tags to non-deprecated values - stalld: Add -a/--affinity option - Adding SPDX license info to each file - man/stalld.8: change starving threshold to match code - utils: Fix freeing of invalid pointer - add bpftool as BuildRequires * Mon Dec 25 2023 Clark Williams <williams@xxxxxxxxxx> - 1.18.1 - queue_track: Use LIBBPF_MAJOR/MINOR_VERSION to detect deprecated functions - utils: Close file descriptor - stalld: Fix function name of daemonize() - docs: Fix typo in the manual - queue_track: Use bpf_map__resize on older libbpf versions - utils: Let tgid to arrive at the fill proccess comm - stalld: Fix log message on idle detection - stalld: Add -b/--backend option - stalld: Add queue track eBPF based backend - stalld: Add fill_process_comm helper - stalld: Include regex.h on stalld.h - stalld: Get nr of cpus only once - stalld: Add the backend abstraction - sched_debug: Move sched debug functions to an specific file * Thu Dec 21 2023 Clark Williams <williams@xxxxxxxxxx> - 1.17.1 - stalld: Fix memory leak in print_boosted_info() - utils: Check if the system is in lockdown mode - stalld: print process comm and cpu when boosting - stalld: Detect runnable dying tasks - stalld: Fix nr_periods calculation in do_fifo_boost() - stalld.conf: Lower threshold to 20 - utils.c: Exit early if enabling HRTICK fails when using SCHED_DEADLINE - Add support for loongarch -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
