2014-09-19sched, time: Fix lock inversion in thread_group_cputime()Rik van Riel
The sig->stats_lock nests inside the tasklist_lock and the sighand->siglock in __exit_signal and wait_task_zombie. However, both of those locks can be taken from irq context, which means we need to use the interrupt safe variant of read_seqbegin_or_lock. This blocks interrupts when the "lock" branch is taken (seq is odd), preventing the lock inversion. On the first (lockless) pass through the loop, irqs are not blocked.

2014-09-19sched/numa: Use select_idle_sibling() to select a destination for ↵Rik van Riel
task_numa_move() The code in task_numa_compare() will only examine at most one idle CPU per node, because they all have the same score. However, some idle CPUs are better candidates than others, due to busy or idle SMT siblings, etc... The scheduler has logic to find the best CPU within an LLC to place a task. The NUMA code should probably use it. This seems to reduce the standard deviation for single instance SPECjbb2005 with a low warehouse count on my 4 node test system.

2014-09-18rcu: Eliminate deadlock between CPU hotplug and expedited grace periodsPaul E. McKenney
Currently, the expedited grace-period primitives do get_online_cpus(). This greatly simplifies their implementation, but means that calls to them holding locks that are acquired by CPU-hotplug notifiers (to say nothing of calls to these primitives from CPU-hotplug notifiers) can deadlock. But this is starting to become inconvenient, as can be seen here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/5/754. The problem in this case is that some developers need to acquire a mutex from a CPU-hotplug notifier, but also need to hold it across a synchronize_rcu_expedited(). As noted above, this currently results in deadlock. This commit avoids the deadlock and retains the simplicity by creating a try_get_online_cpus(), which returns false if the get_online_cpus() reference count could not immediately be incremented. If a call to try_get_online_cpus() returns true, the expedited primitives operate as before. If a call returns false, the expedited primitives fall back to normal grace-period operations. This falling back of course results in increased grace-period latency, but only during times when CPU hotplug operations are actually in flight. The effect should therefore be negligible during normal operation. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org> Cc: "Rafael J.

2014-09-16locktorture: Add infrastructure for torturing read locksDavidlohr Bueso
Most of it is based on what we already have for writers. This allows readers to be very independent (and thus configurable), enabling future module parameters to control things such as rw distribution. Furthermore, readers have their own delaying function, allowing us to test different rw critical region latencies, and stress locking internals. Similarly, statistics, for now will only serve for the number of lock acquisitions -- as opposed to writers, readers have no failure detection. In addition, introduce a new nreaders_stress module parameter. The default number of readers will be the same number of writers threads. Writer threads are interleaved with readers. Documentation is updated, respectively. Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2014-09-16torture: Address race in module cleanupDavidlohr Bueso
When performing module cleanups by calling torture_cleanup() the 'torture_type' string in nullified However, callers are not necessarily done, and might still need to reference the variable. This impacts both rcutorture and locktorture, causing printing things like: [ 94.226618] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_writer task [ 94.226624] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_stats task Thus delay this operation until the very end of the cleanup process. The consequence (which shouldn't matter for this kid of program) is, of course, that we delay the window between rmmod and modprobing, for instance in module_torture_begin().

2014-09-16locktorture: Teach about lock debuggingDavidlohr Bueso
Regular locks are very different than locks with debugging. For instance for mutexes, debugging forces to only take the slowpaths. As such, the locktorture module should take this into account when printing related information -- specifically when printing user passed parameters, it seems the right place for such info.

2014-09-16locktorture: Support mutexesDavidlohr Bueso
Add a "mutex_lock" torture test. The main difference with the already existing spinlock tests is that the latency of the critical region is much larger. We randomly delay for (arbitrarily) either 500 ms or, otherwise, 25 ms. While this can considerably reduce the amount of writes compared to non blocking locks, if run long enough it can have the same torturous effect. Furthermore it is more representative of mutex hold times and can stress better things like thrashing. Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2014-09-16rcu: Avoid misordering in nocb_leader_wait()Paul E. McKenney
The NOCB follower wakeup ordering depends on the store to the tail pointer happening before the wakeup. However, because atomic_long_add() does not return a value, it does not provide ordering guarantees, and the locking in wake_up() only guarantees that the store will happen before the unlock, which might be too late. Even though this is only a theoretical issue, this commit adds a smp_mb__after_atomic() after the final atomic_long_add() to provide the needed ordering guarantee.

2014-09-16rcu: Fix attempt to avoid unsolicited offloading of callbacksPaul E. McKenney
Commit b58cc46c5f6b (rcu: Don't offload callbacks unless specifically requested) failed to adjust the callback lists of the CPUs that are known to be no-CBs CPUs only because they are also nohz_full= CPUs. This failure can result in callbacks that are posted during early boot getting stranded on nxtlist for CPUs whose no-CBs property becomes apparent late, and there can also be spurious warnings about offline CPUs posting callbacks. This commit fixes these problems by adding an early-boot rcu_init_nohz() that properly initializes the no-CBs CPUs. Note that kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL=y or with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=n do not exhibit this bug. Neither do kernels booted without the nohz_full= boot parameter. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2014-09-13nohz: nohz full depends on irq work self IPI supportFrederic Weisbecker
The nohz full functionality depends on IRQ work to trigger its own interrupts. As it's used to restart the tick, we can't rely on the tick fallback for irq work callbacks, ie: we can't use the tick to restart the tick itself. Lets reject the full dynticks initialization if that arch support isn't available. As a side effect, this makes sure that nohz kick is never called from the tick. That otherwise would result in illegal hrtimer self-cancellation and lockup. Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Paul E.

2014-09-13nohz: Consolidate nohz full init codeFrederic Weisbecker
The supports for CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=y and the nohz_full= kernel parameter both have their own way to do the same thing: allocate full dynticks cpumasks, fill them and initialize some state variables. Lets consolidate that all in the same place. While at it, convert some regular printk message to warnings when fundamental allocations fail.

2014-09-13irq_work: Force raised irq work to run on irq work interruptFrederic Weisbecker
The nohz full kick, which restarts the tick when any resource depend on it, can't be executed anywhere given the operation it does on timers. If it is called from the scheduler or timers code, chances are that we run into a deadlock. This is why we run the nohz full kick from an irq work. That way we make sure that the kick runs on a virgin context. However if that's the case when irq work runs in its own dedicated self-ipi, things are different for the big bunch of archs that don't support the self triggered way. In order to support them, irq works are also handled by the timer interrupt as fallback. Now when irq works run on the timer interrupt, the context isn't blank. More precisely, they can run in the context of the hrtimer that runs the tick. But the nohz kick cancels and restarts this hrtimer and cancelling an hrtimer from itself isn't allowed. This is why we run in an endless loop: Kernel panic - not syncing: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 2 CPU: 2 PID: 7538 Comm: kworker/u8:8 Not tainted 3.16.0+ #34 Workqueue: btrfs-endio-write normal_work_helper [btrfs] ffff880244c06c88 000000001b486fe1 ffff880244c06bf0 ffffffff8a7f1e37 ffffffff8ac52a18 ffff880244c06c78 ffffffff8a7ef928 0000000000000010 ffff880244c06c88 ffff880244c06c20 000000001b486fe1 0000000000000000 Call Trace: <NMI[<ffffffff8a7f1e37>] dump_stack+0x4e/0x7a [<ffffffff8a7ef928>] panic+0xd4/0x207 [<ffffffff8a1450e8>] watchdog_overflow_callback+0x118/0x120 [<ffffffff8a186b0e>] __perf_event_overflow+0xae/0x350 [<ffffffff8a184f80>] ? perf_event_task_disable+0xa0/0xa0 [<ffffffff8a01a4cf>] ? x86_perf_event_set_period+0xbf/0x150 [<ffffffff8a187934>] perf_event_overflow+0x14/0x20 [<ffffffff8a020386>] intel_pmu_handle_irq+0x206/0x410 [<ffffffff8a01937b>] perf_event_nmi_handler+0x2b/0x50 [<ffffffff8a007b72>] nmi_handle+0xd2/0x390 [<ffffffff8a007aa5>] ? nmi_handle+0x5/0x390 [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 [<ffffffff8a008062>] default_do_nmi+0x72/0x1c0 [<ffffffff8a008268>] do_nmi+0xb8/0x100 [<ffffffff8a7ff66a>] end_repeat_nmi+0x1e/0x2e [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 <<EOE><IRQ[<ffffffff8a0ccd2f>] lock_acquired+0xaf/0x450 [<ffffffff8a0f74c5>] ? lock_hrtimer_base.isra.20+0x25/0x50 [<ffffffff8a7fc678>] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x78/0x90 [<ffffffff8a0f74c5>] ? lock_hrtimer_base.isra.20+0x25/0x50 [<ffffffff8a0f74c5>] lock_hrtimer_base.isra.20+0x25/0x50 [<ffffffff8a0f7723>] hrtimer_try_to_cancel+0x33/0x1e0 [<ffffffff8a0f78ea>] hrtimer_cancel+0x1a/0x30 [<ffffffff8a109237>] tick_nohz_restart+0x17/0x90 [<ffffffff8a10a213>] __tick_nohz_full_check+0xc3/0x100 [<ffffffff8a10a25e>] nohz_full_kick_work_func+0xe/0x10 [<ffffffff8a17c884>] irq_work_run_list+0x44/0x70 [<ffffffff8a17c8da>] irq_work_run+0x2a/0x50 [<ffffffff8a0f700b>] update_process_times+0x5b/0x70 [<ffffffff8a109005>] tick_sched_handle.isra.21+0x25/0x60 [<ffffffff8a109b81>] tick_sched_timer+0x41/0x60 [<ffffffff8a0f7aa2>] __run_hrtimer+0x72/0x470 [<ffffffff8a109b40>] ? tick_sched_do_timer+0xb0/0xb0 [<ffffffff8a0f8707>] hrtimer_interrupt+0x117/0x270 [<ffffffff8a034357>] local_apic_timer_interrupt+0x37/0x60 [<ffffffff8a80010f>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x3f/0x50 [<ffffffff8a7fe52f>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x6f/0x80 To fix this we force non-lazy irq works to run on irq work self-IPIs when available.

2014-09-13nohz: Move nohz full init call to tick initFrederic Weisbecker
This way we unbloat a bit main.c and more importantly we initialize nohz full after init_IRQ(). This dependency will be needed in further patches because nohz full needs irq work to raise its own IRQ. Information about the support for this ability on ARM64 is obtained on init_IRQ() which initialize the pointer to __smp_call_function. Since tick_init() is called right after init_IRQ(), this is a good place to call tick_nohz_init() and prepare for that dependency.

This only needs to be done when the checks are being performed, otherwise, if ftrace_enabled is off when calls back to the utility that is being tested, it can cause errors to happen and the tests can fail with false positives.

2014-09-12alarmtimer: Lock k_itimer during timer callbackRichard Larocque
Locks the k_itimer's it_lock member when handling the alarm timer's expiry callback. The regular posix timers defined in posix-timers.c have this lock held during timout processing because their callbacks are routed through posix_timer_fn(). The alarm timers follow a different path, so they ought to grab the lock somewhere else.
