sched/uclamp: Skip uclamp_rq_dec() for non-final dequeue of delayed tasks

[PATCH v1] sched/uclamp: Skip uclamp_rq_dec() for non-final dequeue of delayed tasks

Posted by Zihuan Zhang 3 months, 1 week ago

Currently, uclamp_rq_inc() skips updating the clamp aggregation for
delayed tasks unless ENQUEUE_DELAYED is set, to ensure we only track the
real enqueue of a task that was previously marked as sched_delayed.

However, the corresponding uclamp_rq_dec() path only checks
sched_delayed, and misses the DEQUEUE_DELAYED flag. As a result, we may
skip dec for a delayed task that is now being truly dequeued, leading to
uclamp aggregation mismatch.

This patch makes uclamp_rq_dec() consistent with uclamp_rq_inc() by
checking both sched_delayed and DEQUEUE_DELAYED, ensuring correct
accounting symmetry.

Fixes: 90ca9410dab2 ("sched/uclamp: Align uclamp and util_est and call before freq update")

Consider the following case:

- p is a fair task with uclamp constraints set.


- P blocks and dequeue_task() calls uclamp_rq_dec() and later
   p->sched_class->dequeue_task() sets "p->se.sched_delayed" to 1.

   uclamp_rq_dec() is called for the first time here and has already
   decremented the clamp_id from the hierarchy.


- Before P can be completely dequeued, P is moved to an RT class
   with p->se.sched_delayed still set to 1 which invokes the following
   call-chain:
   
   __sched_setscheduler() {
     dequeue_task(DEQUEUE_DELAYED) {
       uclamp_rq_dec() {
         if (p->se.sched_delayed && !(flags & DEQUEUE_DELAYED)) /* false */
           return;

         /* !! Decrements clamp_id again !! */
       }
       /* Dequeues from fair class */
     }
     /* Enqueues onto the RT class */
   }


 From my reading, the current code is correct and the special handling in
uclamp_rq_inc() is required because enqueue_task() does a
uclamp_rq_inc() first before calling p->sched_class->enqueue_task()
which will clear "p->se.sched_delayed" if ENQUEUE_DELAYED is set.

dequeue_task() already does a uclamp_rq_dec() before task is delayed and
any further dequeue of a delayed task should not decrement the
uclamp_id.

Please let me know if I've missed something.

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation!
You're absolutely right — uclamp_rq_dec() is unconditionally called at 
the top of dequeue_task(), and any further delayed dequeues should not 
trigger an additional dec.
I now understand the subtle but important difference between the enqueue 
and dequeue paths.
As a follow-up question: would it make sense to defensively guard 
uclamp_rq_dec() with something like:
if (!task_on_rq_queued(p))
return;
I understand this is not required with the current call structure, but I 
wonder whether such a check would be reasonable to prevent accidental 
double-dec in case of future changes or obscure paths.
Or would this be considered unnecessary runtime overhead and better 
caught by path analysis?
Looking forward to your thoughts.
Thanks again for the insightful review!

Thank you Prateek for the detailed explanation, I've stresstested the entire
uclamp delayed dequeue path the last couple days and I also couldn't trigger
any imbalance FWIW.

uclamp_rq_dec() is only called from dequeue_task() and that
should only be called when task_on_rq_queued().

On a closer look at uclamp_rq_dec_id(), I think "uc_se->active"
will guard against a double accounting. But that is not a good
reason to sprinkle redundant calls.

Consider the __sched_setscheduler()，when changing the delayed-task's
sched-class，your patch would dec the uclamp twice.
