      sched: add optional support for CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK · 3e51f33f
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      
this replaces the rq->clock stuff (and possibly cpu_clock()).

 - architectures that have an 'imperfect' hardware clock can set
   CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK

 - the 'jiffie' window might be superfulous when we update tick_gtod
   before the __update_sched_clock() call in sched_clock_tick()

 - cpu_clock() might be implemented as:

     sched_clock_cpu(smp_processor_id())

   if the accuracy proves good enough - how far can TSC drift in a
   single jiffie when considering the filtering and idle hooks?

      rename div64_64 to div64_u64 · 6f6d6a1a
      Roman Zippel authored 
      
Rename div64_64 to div64_u64 to make it consistent with the other divide
functions, so it clearly includes the type of the divide.  Move its definition
to math64.h as currently no architecture overrides the generic implementation.
 They can still override it of course, but the duplicated declarations are
avoided.

      sched: improve affine wakeups · 4ae7d5ce
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      
improve affine wakeups. Maintain the 'overlap' metric based on CFS's
sum_exec_runtime - which means the amount of time a task executes
after it wakes up some other task.

Use the 'overlap' for the wakeup decisions: if the 'overlap' is short,
it means there's strong workload coupling between this task and the
woken up task. If the 'overlap' is large then the workload is decoupled
and the scheduler will move them to separate CPUs more easily.

( Also slightly move the preempt_check within try_to_wake_up() - this has
  no effect on functionality but allows 'early wakeups' (for still-on-rq
  tasks) to be correctly accounted as well.)

      sched: fix gcc warnings · 90b2628f
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      
Meelis Roos reported these warnings on sparc64:

  CC      kernel/sched.o
  In file included from kernel/sched.c:879:
  kernel/sched_debug.c: In function 'nsec_high':
  kernel/sched_debug.c:38: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

the debug check in do_div() is over-eager here, because the long long
is always positive in these places. Mark this by casting them to
unsigned long long.

no change in code output:

      sched: fix unconditional irq lock · ab63a633
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      
Lockdep noticed that this lock can also be taken from hardirq context, and can
thus not unconditionally disable/enable irqs.

      sched: reduce schedstat variable overhead a bit · 480b9434
      Ken Chen authored 
      
schedstat is useful in investigating CPU scheduler behavior.  Ideally,
I think it is beneficial to have it on all the time.  However, the
cost of turning it on in production system is quite high, largely due
to number of events it collects and also due to its large memory
footprint.

Most of the fields probably don't need to be full 64-bit on 64-bit
arch.  Rolling over 4 billion events will most like take a long time
and user space tool can be made to accommodate that.  I'm proposing
kernel to cut back most of variable width on 64-bit system.  (note,
the following patch doesn't affect 32-bit system).
