This patchset moves the task_mm_cid_work to a preemptible and migratable
context. This reduces the impact of this task to the scheduling latency
of real time tasks.
The change makes the recurrence of the task a bit more predictable.
We also add optimisation and fixes to make sure the task_mm_cid_work
works as intended.
The behaviour causing latency was introduced in commit 223baf9d17f2
("sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid") which
introduced a task work tied to the scheduler tick.
That approach presents two possible issues:
* the task work runs before returning to user and causes, in fact, a
scheduling latency (with order of magnitude significant in PREEMPT_RT)
* periodic tasks with short runtime are less likely to run during the
tick, hence they might not run the task work at all
Patch 1 allows the mm_cids to be actually compacted when a process
reduces its number of threads, which was not the case since the same
mm_cids were reused to improve cache locality, more details in [3].
Patch 2 contains the main changes, removing the task_work on the
scheduler tick and using a delayed_work instead.
Additionally, we terminate the call immediately if we see that no mm_cid
is actually active, which could happen on processes sleeping for long
time or which exited but whose mm has not been freed yet.
Patch 3 adds a selftest to validate the functionality of the
task_mm_cid_work (i.e. to compact the mm_cids). The test fails if patch
1 is not applied and is flaky without patch 2. We expect it to always
pass with the entire patchset applied.
Changes since V3 [1]:
* Fixes on the selftest
* Minor style issues in comments and indentation
* Use of perror where possible
* Add a barrier to align threads execution
* Improve test failure and error handling
Changes since V2 [2]:
* Change the order of the patches
* Merge patches changing the main delayed_work logic
* Improved self-test to spawn 1 less thread and use the main one instead
Changes since V1 [3]:
* Re-arm the delayed_work at each invocation
* Cancel the work synchronously at mmdrop
* Remove next scan fields and completely rely on the delayed_work
* Shrink mm_cid allocation with nr thread/affinity (Mathieu Desnoyers)
* Add self test

When a process reduces its number of threads or clears bits in its CPU
affinity mask, the mm_cid allocation should eventually converge towards
smaller values.
However, the change introduced by:
commit 7e019dcc470f ("sched: Improve cache locality of RSEQ concurrency
IDs for intermittent workloads")
adds a per-mm/CPU recent_cid which is never unset unless a thread
migrates.
This is a tradeoff between:
A) Preserving cache locality after a transition from many threads to few
threads, or after reducing the hamming weight of the allowed CPU mask.
B) Making the mm_cid upper bounds wrt nr threads and allowed CPU mask
easy to document and understand.
C) Allowing applications to eventually react to mm_cid compaction after
reduction of the nr threads or allowed CPU mask, making the tracking
of mm_cid compaction easier by shrinking it back towards 0 or not.
D) Making sure applications that periodically reduce and then increase
again the nr threads or allowed CPU mask still benefit from good
cache locality with mm_cid.
Introduce the following changes:
* After shrinking the number of threads or reducing the number of
allowed CPUs, reduce the value of max_nr_cid so expansion of CID
allocation will preserve cache locality if the number of threads or
allowed CPUs increase again.
* Only re-use a recent_cid if it is within the max_nr_cid upper bound,
else find the first available CID.

Currently, the task_mm_cid_work function is called in a task work
triggered by a scheduler tick to frequently compact the mm_cids of each
process. This can delay the execution of the corresponding thread for
the entire duration of the function, negatively affecting the response
in case of real time tasks. In practice, we observe task_mm_cid_work
increasing the latency of 30-35us on a 128 cores system, this order of
magnitude is meaningful under PREEMPT_RT.
Run the task_mm_cid_work in a new delayed work connected to the
mm_struct rather than in the task context before returning to
userspace.
This delayed work is initialised while allocating the mm and disabled
before freeing it, its execution is no longer triggered by scheduler
ticks but run periodically based on the defined MM_CID_SCAN_DELAY.
The main advantage of this change is that the function can be offloaded
to a different CPU and even preempted by RT tasks.
Moreover, this new behaviour could be more predictable with periodic
tasks with short runtime, which may rarely run during a scheduler tick.
Now, the work is always scheduled with the same periodicity for each mm
(though the periodicity is not guaranteed due to interference from other
tasks, but mm_cid compaction is mostly best effort).
To avoid excessively increased runtime, we quickly return from the
function if we have no work to be done (i.e. no mm_cid is allocated).
This is helpful for tasks that sleep for a long time, but also for
terminated task. We are no longer following the process' state, hence
the function continues to run after a process terminates but before its
mm is freed.

A task in the kernel (task_mm_cid_work) runs somewhat periodically to
compact the mm_cid for each process. Add a test to validate that it runs
correctly and timely.
The test spawns 1 thread pinned to each CPU, then each thread, including
the main one, runs in short bursts for some time. During this period, the
mm_cids should be spanning all numbers between 0 and nproc.
At the end of this phase, a thread with high enough mm_cid (>= nproc/2)
is selected to be the new leader, all other threads terminate.
After some time, the only running thread should see 0 as mm_cid, if that
doesn't happen, the compaction mechanism didn't work and the test fails.
The test never fails if only 1 core is available, in which case, we
cannot test anything as the only available mm_cid is 0.
