sched/headers: Introduce kernel/sched/build_utility.c and build multiple .c files there

Collect all utility functionality source code files into a single kernel/sched/build_utility.c file,
via #include-ing the .c files:

kernel/sched/clock.c
kernel/sched/completion.c
kernel/sched/loadavg.c
kernel/sched/swait.c
kernel/sched/wait_bit.c
kernel/sched/wait.c

CONFIG_CPU_FREQ:
kernel/sched/cpufreq.c

CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_SCHEDUTIL:
kernel/sched/cpufreq_schedutil.c

CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT:
kernel/sched/cpuacct.c

CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG:
kernel/sched/debug.c

CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS:
kernel/sched/stats.c

CONFIG_SMP:
kernel/sched/cpupri.c
kernel/sched/stop_task.c
kernel/sched/topology.c

CONFIG_SCHED_CORE:
kernel/sched/core_sched.c

CONFIG_PSI:
kernel/sched/psi.c

CONFIG_MEMBARRIER:
kernel/sched/membarrier.c

CONFIG_CPU_ISOLATION:
kernel/sched/isolation.c

CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP:
kernel/sched/autogroup.c

The goal is to amortize the 60+ KLOC header bloat from over a dozen build units into
a single build unit.

The build time of build_utility.c also roughly matches the build time of core.c and
fair.c - allowing better load-balancing of scheduler-only rebuilds.

sched: Introduce task block time in schedstats

Currently in schedstats we have sum_sleep_runtime and iowait_sum, but
there's no metric to show how long the task is in D state. Once a task in
D state, it means the task is blocked in the kernel, for example the
task may be waiting for a mutex. The D state is more frequent than
iowait, and it is more critital than S state. So it is worth to add a
metric to measure it.

sched: Make schedstats helpers independent of fair sched class

The original prototype of the schedstats helpers are

update_stats_wait_*(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se)

The cfs_rq in these helpers is used to get the rq_clock, and the se is
used to get the struct sched_statistics and the struct task_struct. In
order to make these helpers available by all sched classes, we can pass
the rq, sched_statistics and task_struct directly.

Then the new helpers are

update_stats_wait_*(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p,
struct sched_statistics *stats)

which are independent of fair sched class.

To avoid vmlinux growing too large or introducing ovehead when
!schedstat_enabled(), some new helpers after schedstat_enabled() are also
introduced, Suggested by Mel. These helpers are in sched/stats.c,

__update_stats_wait_*(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p,
struct sched_statistics *stats)

The size of vmlinux as follows,
Before After
Size of vmlinux 826308552 826304640
The size is a litte smaller as some functions are not inlined again after
the change.

I also compared the sched performance with 'perf bench sched pipe',
suggested by Mel. The result as followsi (in usecs/op),
Before After
kernel.sched_schedstats=0 5.2~5.4 5.2~5.4
kernel.sched_schedstats=1 5.3~5.5 5.3~5.5

[These data is a little difference with the prev version, that is
because my old test machine is destroyed so I have to use a new
different test machine.]
Almost no difference.

No functional change.

sched/headers: Simplify and clean up header usage in the scheduler

Do the following cleanups and simplifications:

- sched/sched.h already includes <asm/paravirt.h>, so no need to
include it in sched/core.c again.

- order the <linux/sched/*.h> headers alphabetically

- add all <linux/sched/*.h> headers to kernel/sched/sched.h

- remove all unnecessary includes from the .c files that
are already included in kernel/sched/sched.h.

Finally, make all scheduler .c files use a single common header:

#include "sched.h"

... which now contains a union of the relied upon headers.

This makes the various .c files easier to read and easier to handle.

- remove unnecessary parentheses from integer literals,

- capitalize consistently,

- remove stray newlines,

- add comments where necessary,

- remove invalid/unnecessary comments,

- align structure definitions and other data types vertically,

- add missing newlines for increased readability,

- fix vertical tabulation where it's misaligned,

- harmonize preprocessor conditional block labeling
and vertical alignment,

- remove line-breaks where they uglify the code,

- add newline after local variable definitions,

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of module_init in core code

Code that is obj-y (always built-in) or dependent on a bool Kconfig
(built-in or absent) can never be modular. So using module_init as an
alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading.

Fix these up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into
module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h
to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing.

The audit targets the following module_init users for change:
kernel/user.c obj-y
kernel/kexec.c bool KEXEC (one instance per arch)
kernel/profile.c bool PROFILING
kernel/hung_task.c bool DETECT_HUNG_TASK
kernel/sched/stats.c bool SCHEDSTATS
kernel/user_namespace.c bool USER_NS

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the
priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these
files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level
4-subsys (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that
difference has been observed during testing.

Also, two instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed in kexec.

sched: Fix /proc/sched_stat failure on very very large systems

On systems with 4096 cores doing a cat /proc/sched_stat fails,
because we are trying to push all the data into a single kmalloc
buffer.

The issue is on these very large machines all the data will not
fit in 4mb.

A better solution is to not use the single_open() mechanism but
to provide our own seq_operations.

The output should be identical to previous version and thus not
need the version number.

sched: Remove sched_switch

Currently we don't utilize the sched_switch field anymore.

But, simply removing sched_switch field from the middle of the
sched_stat output will break tools.

So, to stay compatible we hardcode it to zero and remove the
field from the scheduler data structures.

Update the schedstat documentation accordingly.
