Dear RT Folks, I'm pleased to announce the 3.6.4-rt11 release. Changes since 3.6.3-rt10: * Crypto wreckage fix (Milan Broz) Another proof why copy and paste should be forbidden, but if that would happen most of us would be serving time. * Another attempt to tame SLUB My previous approach turned out to be too naive though this one has at least held up against massive memory stress tests. It's a very simple and straight forward aproach now and while I'm quite sure that it will not fall over as it did before, there might be hidden latency issues with that new version. So please give it a proper testing! * Lazy preemption It has become an obsession to mitigate the determinism vs. throughput loss of RT. Looking at the mainline semantics of preemption points gives a hint why RT sucks throughput wise for ordinary SCHED_OTHER tasks. One major issue is the wakeup of tasks which are right away preempting the waking task while the waking task holds a lock on which the woken task will block right after having preempted the wakee. In mainline this is prevented due to the implicit preemption disable of spin/rw_lock held regions. On RT this is not possible due to the fully preemptible nature of sleeping spinlocks. Though for a SCHED_OTHER task preempting another SCHED_OTHER task this is really not a correctness issue. RT folks are concerned about SCHED_FIFO/RR tasks preemption and not about the purely fairness driven SCHED_OTHER preemption latencies. So I introduced a lazy preemption mechanism which only applies to SCHED_OTHER tasks preempting another SCHED_OTHER task. Aside of the existing preempt_count each tasks sports now a preempt_lazy_count which is manipulated on lock acquiry and release. This is slightly incorrect as for lazyness reasons I coupled this on migrate_disable/enable so some other mechanisms get the same treatment (e.g. get_cpu_light). Now on the scheduler side instead of setting NEED_RESCHED this sets NEED_RESCHED_LAZY in case of a SCHED_OTHER/SCHED_OTHER preemption and therefor allows to exit the waking task the lock held region before the woken task preempts. That also works better for cross CPU wakeups as the other side can stay in the adaptive spinning loop. For RT class preemption there is no change. This simply sets NEED_RESCHED and forgoes the lazy preemption counter. Initial test do not expose any observable latency increasement, but history shows that I've been proven wrong before :) The lazy preemption mode is per default on, but with CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG enabled it can be disabled via: # echo NO_PREEMPT_LAZY >/sys/kernel/debug/sched_features and reenabled via # echo PREEMPT_LAZY >/sys/kernel/debug/sched_features The test results so far are very machine and workload dependent, but there is a clear trend that it enhances the non RT workload performance. Please give it a try and share your experience! Known issues: There is still some "softirq pending xx" fallout which I have not been able to investigate yet, but that's on my top priority list. It's not a critical issue and only annoys people with CONFIG_NO_HZ=y configurations.
