kernel/workqueue: Use dynamic lockdep keys for workqueues

2019-02-28T06:55:47Z

The following commit: 87915adc3f0a ("workqueue: re-add lockdep dependencies for flushing") improved deadlock checking in the workqueue implementation. Unfortunately that patch also introduced a few false positive lockdep complaints. This patch suppresses these false positives by allocating the workqueue mutex lockdep key dynamically. An example of a false positive lockdep complaint suppressed by this patch can be found below. The root cause of the lockdep complaint shown below is that the direct I/O code can call alloc_workqueue() from inside a work item created by another alloc_workqueue() call and that both workqueues share the same lockdep key. This patch avoids that that lockdep complaint is triggered by allocating the work queue lockdep keys dynamically. In other words, this patch guarantees that a unique lockdep key is associated with each work queue mutex. ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 4.19.0-dbg+ #1 Not tainted fio/4129 is trying to acquire lock: 00000000a01cfe1a ((wq_completion)"dio/%s"sb->s_id){+.+.}, at: flush_workqueue+0xd0/0x970 but task is already holding lock: 00000000a0acecf9 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14){+.+.}, at: ext4_file_write_iter+0x154/0x710 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #2 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14){+.+.}: down_write+0x3d/0x80 __generic_file_fsync+0x77/0xf0 ext4_sync_file+0x3c9/0x780 vfs_fsync_range+0x66/0x100 dio_complete+0x2f5/0x360 dio_aio_complete_work+0x1c/0x20 process_one_work+0x481/0x9f0 worker_thread+0x63/0x5a0 kthread+0x1cf/0x1f0 ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30 -> #1 ((work_completion)(&dio->complete_work)){+.+.}: process_one_work+0x447/0x9f0 worker_thread+0x63/0x5a0 kthread+0x1cf/0x1f0 ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30 -> #0 ((wq_completion)"dio/%s"sb->s_id){+.+.}: lock_acquire+0xc5/0x200 flush_workqueue+0xf3/0x970 drain_workqueue+0xec/0x220 destroy_workqueue+0x23/0x350 sb_init_dio_done_wq+0x6a/0x80 do_blockdev_direct_IO+0x1f33/0x4be0 __blockdev_direct_IO+0x79/0x86 ext4_direct_IO+0x5df/0xbb0 generic_file_direct_write+0x119/0x220 __generic_file_write_iter+0x131/0x2d0 ext4_file_write_iter+0x3fa/0x710 aio_write+0x235/0x330 io_submit_one+0x510/0xeb0 __x64_sys_io_submit+0x122/0x340 do_syscall_64+0x71/0x220 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe other info that might help us debug this: Chain exists of: (wq_completion)"dio/%s"sb->s_id --> (work_completion)(&dio->complete_work) --> &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14 Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14); lock((work_completion)(&dio->complete_work)); lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14); lock((wq_completion)"dio/%s"sb->s_id); *** DEADLOCK *** 1 lock held by fio/4129: #0: 00000000a0acecf9 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14){+.+.}, at: ext4_file_write_iter+0x154/0x710 stack backtrace: CPU: 3 PID: 4129 Comm: fio Not tainted 4.19.0-dbg+ #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-1 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x86/0xc5 print_circular_bug.isra.32+0x20a/0x218 __lock_acquire+0x1c68/0x1cf0 lock_acquire+0xc5/0x200 flush_workqueue+0xf3/0x970 drain_workqueue+0xec/0x220 destroy_workqueue+0x23/0x350 sb_init_dio_done_wq+0x6a/0x80 do_blockdev_direct_IO+0x1f33/0x4be0 __blockdev_direct_IO+0x79/0x86 ext4_direct_IO+0x5df/0xbb0 generic_file_direct_write+0x119/0x220 __generic_file_write_iter+0x131/0x2d0 ext4_file_write_iter+0x3fa/0x710 aio_write+0x235/0x330 io_submit_one+0x510/0xeb0 __x64_sys_io_submit+0x122/0x340 do_syscall_64+0x71/0x220 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Johannes Berg Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Paul E.

workqueue: Provide queue_work_node to queue work near a given NUMA node

2019-01-31T13:20:54Z

Provide a new function, queue_work_node, which is meant to schedule work on a "random" CPU of the requested NUMA node. The main motivation for this is to help assist asynchronous init to better improve boot times for devices that are local to a specific node. For now we just default to the first CPU that is in the intersection of the cpumask of the node and the online cpumask. The only exception is if the CPU is local to the node we will just use the current CPU. This should work for our purposes as we are currently only using this for unbound work so the CPU will be translated to a node anyway instead of being directly used. As we are only using the first CPU to represent the NUMA node for now I am limiting the scope of the function so that it can only be used with unbound workqueues.

workqueue: Show the latest workqueue name in /proc/PID/{comm,stat,status}

2018-05-18T15:47:13Z

There can be a lot of workqueue workers and they all show up with the cryptic kworker/* names making it difficult to understand which is doing what and how they came to be. # ps -ef | grep kworker root 4 2 0 Feb25 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/0:0H] root 6 2 0 Feb25 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/u112:0] root 19 2 0 Feb25 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/1:0H] root 25 2 0 Feb25 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/2:0H] root 31 2 0 Feb25 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/3:0H] ... This patch makes workqueue workers report the latest workqueue it was executing for through /proc/PID/{comm,stat,status}. The extra information is appended to the kthread name with intervening '+' if currently executing, otherwise '-'. # cat /proc/25/comm kworker/2:0-events_power_efficient # cat /proc/25/stat 25 (kworker/2:0-events_power_efficient) I 2 0 0 0 -1 69238880 0 0... # grep Name /proc/25/status Name: kworker/2:0-events_power_efficient Unfortunately, ps(1) truncates comm to 15 characters, # ps 25 PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND 25 ? I 0:00 [kworker/2:0-eve] making it a lot less useful; however, this should be an easy fix from ps(1) side. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds Cc: Craig Small

RCU, workqueue: Implement rcu_work

2018-03-19T17:12:03Z

There are cases where RCU callback needs to be bounced to a sleepable context. This is currently done by the RCU callback queueing a work item, which can be cumbersome to write and confusing to read. This patch introduces rcu_work, a workqueue work variant which gets executed after a RCU grace period, and converts the open coded bouncing in fs/aio and kernel/cgroup. v3: Dropped queue_rcu_work_on(). Documented rcu grace period behavior after queue_rcu_work(). v2: Use rcu_barrier() instead of synchronize_rcu() to wait for completion of previously queued rcu callback as per Paul.

workqueue: Allow retrieval of current task's work struct

2018-02-16T21:24:25Z

Introduce a helper to retrieve the current task's work struct if it is a workqueue worker. This allows us to fix a long-standing deadlock in several DRM drivers wherein the ->runtime_suspend callback waits for a specific worker to finish and that worker in turn calls a function which waits for runtime suspend to finish. That function is invoked from multiple call sites and waiting for runtime suspend to finish is the correct thing to do except if it's executing in the context of the worker.
