2016-07-27stop_machine: Touch_nmi_watchdog() after MULTI_STOP_PREPAREOleg Nesterov
Suppose that stop_machine(fn) hangs because fn() hangs. In this case NMI hard-lockup can be triggered on another CPU which does nothing wrong and the trace from nmi_panic() won't help to investigate the problem. And this change "fixes" the problem we (seem to) hit in practice. - stop_two_cpus(0, 1) races with show_state_filter() running on CPU_0. - CPU_1 already spins in MULTI_STOP_PREPARE state, it detects the soft lockup and tries to report the problem. - show_state_filter() enables preemption, CPU_0 calls multi_cpu_stop() which goes to MULTI_STOP_DISABLE_IRQ state and disables interrupts. - CPU_1 spends more than 10 seconds trying to flush the log buffer to the slow serial console. - NMI interrupt on CPU_0 (which now waits for CPU_1) calls nmi_panic().

2015-12-12kernel: remove stop_machine() Kconfig dependencyChris Wilson
Currently the full stop_machine() routine is only enabled on SMP if module unloading is enabled, or if the CPUs are hotpluggable. This leads to configurations where stop_machine() is broken as it will then only run the callback on the local CPU with irqs disabled, and not stop the other CPUs or run the callback on them. For example, this breaks MTRR setup on x86 in certain configs since ea8596bb2d8d379 ("kprobes/x86: Remove unused text_poke_smp() and text_poke_smp_batch() functions") as the MTRR is only established on the boot CPU. This patch removes the Kconfig option for STOP_MACHINE and uses the SMP and HOTPLUG_CPU config options to compile the correct stop_machine() for the architecture, removing the false dependency on MODULE_UNLOAD in the process.

2015-11-23stop_machine: Clean up the usage of the preemption counter in ↵Oleg Nesterov
cpu_stopper_thread() 1. Change this code to use preempt_count_inc/preempt_count_dec; this way it works even if CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=n, and we avoid the unnecessary __preempt_schedule() check (stop_sched_class is not preemptible). And this makes clear that we only want to make preempt_count() != 0 for __might_sleep() / schedule_debug(). 2. Change WARN_ONCE() to use %pf to print the function name and remove kallsyms_lookup/ksym_buf. 3. Move "int ret" into the "if (work)" block, this looks more consistent.

stop_machine_unpark() 1. Change smpboot_unpark_thread() to check ->selfparking, just like smpboot_park_thread() does. 2. Introduce stop_machine_unpark() which sets ->enabled and calls kthread_unpark(). 3. Change smpboot_thread_call() and cpu_stop_init() to call stop_machine_unpark() by hand. This way: - IMO the ->selfparking logic becomes more consistent. - We can kill the smp_hotplug_thread->pre_unpark() method. - We can easily unpark the stopper thread earlier. Say, we can move stop_machine_unpark() from smpboot_thread_call() to sched_cpu_active() as Peter suggests.

2015-10-20stop_machine: Ensure that a queued callback will be called before ↵Oleg Nesterov
cpu_stop_park() cpu_stop_queue_work() checks stopper->enabled before it queues the work, but ->enabled == T can only guarantee cpu_stop_signal_done() if we race with cpu_down(). This is not enough for stop_two_cpus() or stop_machine(), they will deadlock if multi_cpu_stop() won't be called by one of the target CPU's. stop_machine/stop_cpus are fine, they rely on stop_cpus_mutex. But stop_two_cpus() has to check cpu_active() to avoid the same race with hotplug, and this check is very unobvious and probably not even correct if we race with cpu_up(). Change cpu_down() pass to clear ->enabled before cpu_stopper_thread() flushes the pending ->works and returns with KTHREAD_SHOULD_PARK set. Note also that smpboot_thread_call() calls cpu_stop_unpark() which sets enabled == T at CPU_ONLINE stage, so this CPU can't go away until cpu_stopper_thread() is called at least once. This all means that if cpu_stop_queue_work() succeeds, we know that work->fn() will be called.

You'll observe the top of the workqueue for each cpu: 4,11,13 to be work from cpus: M, O, N resp. IOW. deadlock.

We must use smp_call_function_single(.wait=1) for the irq_cpu_stop_queue_work() to ensure the queueing is actually done under stop_cpus_lock.

2013-11-11stop_machine: Fix race between stop_two_cpus() and stop_cpus()Rik van Riel
There is a race between stop_two_cpus, and the global stop_cpus. It is possible for two CPUs to get their stopper functions queued "backwards" from one another, resulting in the stopper threads getting stuck, and the system hanging. This can happen because queuing up stoppers is not synchronized. This patch adds synchronization between stop_cpus (a rare operation), and stop_two_cpus.

2013-10-16sched: Remove get_online_cpus() usagePeter Zijlstra
Remove get_online_cpus() usage from the scheduler; there's 4 sites that use it: - sched_init_smp(); where its completely superfluous since we're in 'early' boot and there simply cannot be any hotplugging. - sched_getaffinity(); we already take a raw spinlock to protect the task cpus_allowed mask, this disables preemption and therefore also stabilizes cpu_online_mask as that's modified using stop_machine. However switch to active mask for symmetry with sched_setaffinity()/set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). We guarantee active mask stability by inserting sync_rcu/sched() into _cpu_down. - sched_setaffinity(); we don't appear to need get_online_cpus() either, there's two sites where hotplug appears relevant: * cpuset_cpus_allowed(); for the !cpuset case we use possible_mask, for the cpuset case we hold task_lock, which is a spinlock and thus for mainline disables preemption (might cause pain on RT). * set_cpus_allowed_ptr(); Holds all scheduler locks and thus has preemption properly disabled; also it already deals with hotplug races explicitly where it releases them. - migrate_swap(); we can make stop_two_cpus() do the heavy lifting for us with a little trickery. By adding a sync_sched/rcu() after the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifier we can provide preempt/rcu guarantees for cpu_active_mask. Use these to validate that both our cpus are active when queueing the stop work before we queue the stop_machine works for take_cpu_down().

2013-10-09stop_machine: Introduce stop_two_cpus()Peter Zijlstra
Introduce stop_two_cpus() in order to allow controlled swapping of two tasks. It repurposes the stop_machine() state machine but only stops the two cpus which we can do with on-stack structures and avoid machine wide synchronization issues. The ordering of CPUs is important to avoid deadlocks. If unordered then two cpus calling stop_two_cpus on each other simultaneously would attempt to queue in the opposite order on each CPU causing an AB-BA style deadlock. By always having the lowest number CPU doing the queueing of works, we can guarantee that works are always queued in the same order, and deadlocks are avoided.

2013-02-26stop_machine: Mark per cpu stopper enabled earlyThomas Gleixner
commit 14e568e78 (stop_machine: Use smpboot threads) introduced the following regression: Before this commit the stopper enabled bit was set in the online notifier. CPU0 CPU1 cpu_up cpu online hotplug_notifier(ONLINE) stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true; ... stop_machine() The conversion to smpboot threads moved the enablement to the wakeup path of the parked thread. The majority of users seem to have the following working order: CPU0 CPU1 cpu_up cpu online unpark_threads() wakeup(stopper[CPU1]) .... stopper thread runs stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true; stop_machine() But Konrad and Sander have observed: CPU0 CPU1 cpu_up cpu online unpark_threads() wakeup(stopper[CPU1]) .... stop_machine() stopper thread runs stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true; Now the stop machinery kicks CPU0 into the stop loop, where it gets stuck forever because the queue code saw stopper(CPU1)->enabled == false, so CPU0 waits for CPU1 to enter stomp_machine, but the CPU1 stopper work got discarded due to enabled == false. Add a pre_unpark function to the smpboot thread descriptor and call it before waking the thread. This fixes the problem at hand, but the stop_machine code should be more robust. The stopper->enabled flag smells fishy at best. Thanks to Konrad for going through a loop of debug patches and providing the information to decode this issue.

MTRR rendezvous sequence is not implemened using stop_machine() before, as this gets called both from the process context aswell as the cpu online paths (where the cpu has not come online and the interrupts are disabled etc). Now that we have a new stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() API, use it for rendezvous during mtrr init of a logical processor that is coming online. For the rest (runtime MTRR modification, system boot, resume paths), use stop_machine() to implement the rendezvous sequence. This will consolidate and cleanup the code.

2011-06-27stop_machine: implement stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu()Tejun Heo
Currently, mtrr wants stop_machine functionality while a CPU is being brought up. As stop_machine() requires the calling CPU to be active, mtrr implements its own stop_machine using stop_one_cpu() on each online CPU. This doesn't only unnecessarily duplicate complex logic but also introduces a possibility of deadlock when it races against the generic stop_machine(). This patch implements stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() to serve such use cases. Its functionality is basically the same as stop_machine(); however, it should be called from a CPU which isn't active and doesn't depend on working scheduling on the calling CPU. This is achieved by using busy loops for synchronization and open-coding stop_cpus queuing and waiting with direct invocation of fn() for local CPU inbetween.

2011-06-27x86, mtrr: lock stop machine during MTRR rendezvous sequenceSuresh Siddha
MTRR rendezvous sequence using stop_one_cpu_nowait() can potentially happen in parallel with another system wide rendezvous using stop_machine(). This can lead to deadlock (The order in which works are queued can be different on different cpu's. Some cpu's will be running the first rendezvous handler and others will be running the second rendezvous handler. Each set waiting for the other set to join for the system wide rendezvous, leading to a deadlock). MTRR rendezvous sequence is not implemented using stop_machine() as this gets called both from the process context aswell as the cpu online paths (where the cpu has not come online and the interrupts are disabled etc). stop_machine() works with only online cpus. For now, take the stop_machine mutex in the MTRR rendezvous sequence that gets called from an online cpu (here we are in the process context and can potentially sleep while taking the mutex). And the MTRR rendezvous that gets triggered during cpu online doesn't need to take this stop_machine lock (as the stop_machine() already ensures that there is no cpu hotplug going on in parallel by doing get_online_cpus()) TBD: Pursue a cleaner solution of extending the stop_machine() infrastructure to handle the case where the calling cpu is still not online and use this for MTRR rendezvous sequence. fixes: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=672008 Reported-by: Vadim Kotelnikov <vadimuzzz@inbox.ru> Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110623182056.807230326@sbsiddha-MOBL3.sc.intel.com Cc: stable@kernel.org # 2.6.35+, backport a week or two after this gets more testing in mainline Signed-off-by: H.

2010-05-31sched: Make sure timers have migrated before killing the migration_threadAmit K. Arora
Problem: In a stress test where some heavy tests were running along with regular CPU offlining and onlining, a hang was observed. The system seems to be hung at a point where migration_call() tries to kill the migration_thread of the dying CPU, which just got moved to the current CPU. This migration thread does not get a chance to run (and die) since rt_throttled is set to 1 on current, and it doesn't get cleared as the hrtimer which is supposed to reset the rt bandwidth (sched_rt_period_timer) is tied to the CPU which we just marked dead! Solution: This patch pushes the killing of migration thread to "CPU_POST_DEAD" event. By then all the timers (including sched_rt_period_timer) should have got migrated (along with other callbacks).

2010-05-06sched: replace migration_thread with cpu_stopTejun Heo
Currently migration_thread is serving three purposes - migration pusher, context to execute active_load_balance() and forced context switcher for expedited RCU synchronize_sched. All three roles are hardcoded into migration_thread() and determining which job is scheduled is slightly messy. This patch kills migration_thread and replaces all three uses with cpu_stop. The three different roles of migration_thread() are splitted into three separate cpu_stop callbacks - migration_cpu_stop(), active_load_balance_cpu_stop() and synchronize_sched_expedited_cpu_stop() - and each use case now simply asks cpu_stop to execute the callback as necessary. synchronize_sched_expedited() was implemented with private preallocated resources and custom multi-cpu queueing and waiting logic, both of which are provided by cpu_stop. synchronize_sched_expedited_count is made atomic and all other shared resources along with the mutex are dropped. synchronize_sched_expedited() also implemented a check to detect cases where not all the callback got executed on their assigned cpus and fall back to synchronize_sched(). If called with cpu hotplug blocked, cpu_stop already guarantees that and the condition cannot happen; otherwise, stop_machine() would break. However, this patch preserves the paranoid check using a cpumask to record on which cpus the stopper ran so that it can serve as a bisection point if something actually goes wrong theree. Because the internal execution state is no longer visible, rcu_expedited_torture_stats() is removed. This patch also renames cpu_stop threads to from "stopper/%d" to "migration/%d". The names of these threads ultimately don't matter and there's no reason to make unnecessary userland visible changes. With this patch applied, stop_machine() and sched now share the same resources. stop_machine() is faster without wasting any resources and sched migration users are much cleaner.

2010-05-06stop_machine: reimplement using cpu_stopTejun Heo
Reimplement stop_machine using cpu_stop. As cpu stoppers are guaranteed to be available for all online cpus, stop_machine_create/destroy() are no longer necessary and removed. With resource management and synchronization handled by cpu_stop, the new implementation is much simpler. Asking the cpu_stop to execute the stop_cpu() state machine on all online cpus with cpu hotplug disabled is enough. stop_machine itself doesn't need to manage any global resources anymore, so all per-instance information is rolled into struct stop_machine_data and the mutex and all static data variables are removed. The previous implementation created and destroyed RT workqueues as necessary which made stop_machine() calls highly expensive on very large machines. According to Dimitri Sivanich, preventing the dynamic creation/destruction makes booting faster more than twice on very large machines. cpu_stop resources are preallocated for all online cpus and should have the same effect.
