Subject: [GIT PULL] Scheduler changes for v6.5

Linus,

Please pull the latest sched/core git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git sched-core-2023-06-27

   # HEAD: ebb83d84e49b54369b0db67136a5fe1087124dcc sched/core: Avoid multiple calling update_rq_clock() in __cfsb_csd_unthrottle()

NOTE:

  When merging this tree you'll get a new conflict in 
  drivers/clocksource/hyperv_timer.c, due to overlapping changes.

  In case you want to double check your conflict resolution, our -tip CI 
  conflict resolution can be found at the e31a421069a6 merge commit in the 
  core/merge -tip branch:

Scheduler changes for v6.5:

- Scheduler SMP load-balancer improvements:

    - Avoid unnecessary migrations within SMT domains on hybrid systems.

      Problem:

        On hybrid CPU systems, (processors with a mixture of higher-frequency
	SMT cores and lower-frequency non-SMT cores), under the old code
	lower-priority CPUs pulled tasks from the higher-priority cores if
	more than one SMT sibling was busy - resulting in many unnecessary
	task migrations.

      Solution:

        The new code improves the load balancer to recognize SMT cores with more
        than one busy sibling and allows lower-priority CPUs to pull tasks, which
        avoids superfluous migrations and lets lower-priority cores inspect all SMT
        siblings for the busiest queue.

    - Implement the 'runnable boosting' feature in the EAS balancer: consider CPU
      contention in frequency, EAS max util & load-balance busiest CPU selection.

      This improves CPU utilization for certain workloads, while leaves other key
      workloads unchanged.

- Scheduler infrastructure improvements:

    - Rewrite the scheduler topology setup code by consolidating it
      into the build_sched_topology() helper function and building
      it dynamically on the fly.

    - Resolve the local_clock() vs. noinstr complications by rewriting
      the code: provide separate sched_clock_noinstr() and
      local_clock_noinstr() functions to be used in instrumentation code,
      and make sure it is all instrumentation-safe.

- Fixes:

    - Fix a kthread_park() race with wait_woken()

    - Fix misc wait_task_inactive() bugs unearthed by the -rt merge:
       - Fix UP PREEMPT bug by unifying the SMP and UP implementations.
       - Fix task_struct::saved_state handling.

    - Fix various rq clock update bugs, unearthed by turning on the rq clock
      debugging code.

    - Fix the PSI WINDOW_MIN_US trigger limit, which was easy to trigger by
      creating enough cgroups, by removing the warnign and restricting
      window size triggers to PSI file write-permission or CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.

    - Propagate SMT flags in the topology when removing degenerate domain

    - Fix grub_reclaim() calculation bug in the deadline scheduler code

    - Avoid resetting the min update period when it is unnecessary, in
      psi_trigger_destroy().

    - Don't balance a task to its current running CPU in load_balance(),
      which was possible on certain NUMA topologies with overlapping
      groups.

    - Fix the sched-debug printing of rq->nr_uninterruptible

- Cleanups:

    - Address various -Wmissing-prototype warnings, as a preparation
      to (maybe) enable this warning in the future.

    - Remove unused code

    - Mark more functions __init

    - Fix shadow-variable warnings
