sched: Introduce task_is_running()

Replace a bunch of 'p->state == TASK_RUNNING' with a new helper: task_is_running(p). Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Acked-by: Davidlohr Bueso Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Acked-by: Will Deacon Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210611082838.222401495@infradead.org

arch: setup PF_IO_WORKER threads like PF_KTHREAD

2021-02-22T00:25:22Z

PF_IO_WORKER are kernel threads too, but they aren't PF_KTHREAD in the sense that we don't assign ->set_child_tid with our own structure. Just ensure that every arch sets up the PF_IO_WORKER threads like kthreads in the arch implementation of copy_thread(). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

alpha: replace bogus in_interrupt()

2020-12-16T06:46:15Z

in_interrupt() is true for a variety of things including bottom half disabled regions. Deducing hard interrupt context from it is dubious at best. Use in_irq() which is true if called in hard interrupt context. Otherwise calling irq_exit() would do more harm than good.

sched/idle: Fix arch_cpu_idle() vs tracing

2020-11-24T15:47:35Z

We call arch_cpu_idle() with RCU disabled, but then use local_irq_{en,dis}able(), which invokes tracing, which relies on RCU. Switch all arch_cpu_idle() implementations to use raw_local_irq_{en,dis}able() and carefully manage the lockdep,rcu,tracing state like we do in entry. (XXX: we really should change arch_cpu_idle() to not return with interrupts enabled) Reported-by: Sven Schnelle Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland Tested-by: Mark Rutland Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201120114925.594122626@infradead.org

arch: rename copy_thread_tls() back to copy_thread()

2020-07-04T21:41:37Z

Now that HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS has been removed, rename copy_thread_tls() back simply copy_thread(). It's a simpler name, and doesn't imply that only tls is copied here. This finishes an outstanding chunk of internal process creation work since we've added clone3().

alpha: switch to copy_thread_tls()

2020-07-04T21:41:36Z

Use the copy_thread_tls() calling convention which passes tls through a register. This is required so we can remove the copy_thread{_tls}() split and remove the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS macro. Cc: linux-alpha@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner

mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included

2020-06-09T16:39:13Z

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2. The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported architectures. Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils down to, e.g. static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address) { return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1); } static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address) { return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address); } These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined. For architectures that really need a custom version there is always possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic. These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table accessors to the new header. This patch (of 12): The linux/mm.h header includes to allow inlining of the functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include in the files that include . The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop: for f in $(git grep -l "include ") ; do sed -i -e '/include / d' $f done Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Cc: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Brian Cain Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: Chris Zankel Cc: "David S.

alpha: fix crash if pthread_create races with signal delivery

2018-01-21T01:01:16Z

On alpha, a process will crash if it attempts to start a thread and a signal is delivered at the same time. The crash can be reproduced with this program: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-11/msg00473.html The reason for the crash is this: * we call the clone syscall * we go to the function copy_process * copy process calls copy_thread_tls, it is a wrapper around copy_thread * copy_thread sets the tls pointer: childti->pcb.unique = regs->r20 * copy_thread sets regs->r20 to zero * we go back to copy_process * copy process checks "if (signal_pending(current))" and returns -ERESTARTNOINTR * the clone syscall is restarted, but this time, regs->r20 is zero, so the new thread is created with zero tls pointer * the new thread crashes in start_thread when attempting to access tls The comment in the code says that setting the register r20 is some compatibility with OSF/1. But OSF/1 doesn't use the CLONE_SETTLS flag, so we don't have to zero r20 if CLONE_SETTLS is set. This patch fixes the bug by zeroing regs->r20 only if CLONE_SETTLS is not set.

alpha: make thread_saved_pc static

2018-01-21T00:58:36Z

The only user of thread_saved_pc() in non-arch-specific code was removed in commit 8243d5597793 ("sched/core: Remove pointless printout in sched_show_task()"), so it no longer needs to be globally defined for Alpha and can be made static. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Signed-off-by: Matt Turner
