locking/rwsem: Add __always_inline annotation to __down_read_common() and inlined callers

2023-05-17T11:59:10Z

commit 92cc5d00a431e96e5a49c0b97e5ad4fa7536bd4b upstream. Apparently despite it being marked inline, the compiler may not inline __down_read_common() which makes it difficult to identify the cause of lock contention, as the blocked function in traceevents will always be listed as __down_read_common(). So this patch adds __always_inline annotation to the common function (as well as the inlined helper callers) to force it to be inlined so the blocking function will be listed (via Wchan) in traceevents.

locking/rwsem: Prevent non-first waiter from spinning in down_write() slowpath

2023-03-10T08:29:27Z

commit b613c7f31476c44316bfac1af7cac714b7d6bef9 upstream. A non-first waiter can potentially spin in the for loop of rwsem_down_write_slowpath() without sleeping but fail to acquire the lock even if the rwsem is free if the following sequence happens: Non-first RT waiter First waiter Lock holder ------------------- ------------ ----------- Acquire wait_lock rwsem_try_write_lock(): Set handoff bit if RT or wait too long Set waiter->handoff_set Release wait_lock Acquire wait_lock Inherit waiter->handoff_set Release wait_lock Clear owner Release lock if (waiter.handoff_set) { rwsem_spin_on_owner((); if (OWNER_NULL) goto trylock_again; } trylock_again: Acquire wait_lock rwsem_try_write_lock(): if (first->handoff_set && (waiter != first)) return false; Release wait_lock A non-first waiter cannot really acquire the rwsem even if it mistakenly believes that it can spin on OWNER_NULL value. If that waiter happens to be an RT task running on the same CPU as the first waiter, it can block the first waiter from acquiring the rwsem leading to live lock. Fix this problem by making sure that a non-first waiter cannot spin in the slowpath loop without sleeping.

[ Upstream commit 5a5d7e9badd2cb8065db171961bd30bd3595e4b6 ] In order to avoid WARN/BUG from generating nested or even recursive warnings, force rcu_is_watching() true during WARN/lockdep_rcu_suspicious(). Notably things like unwinding the stack can trigger rcu_dereference() warnings, which then triggers more unwinding which then triggers more warnings etc..

locking/rwsem: Disable preemption in all down_read*() and up_read() code paths

2023-03-10T08:27:51Z

[ Upstream commit 3f5245538a1964ae186ab7e1636020a41aa63143 ] Commit: 91d2a812dfb9 ("locking/rwsem: Make handoff writer optimistically spin on owner") ... assumes that when the owner field is changed to NULL, the lock will become free soon. But commit: 48dfb5d2560d ("locking/rwsem: Disable preemption while trying for rwsem lock") ... disabled preemption when acquiring rwsem for write. However, preemption has not yet been disabled when acquiring a read lock on a rwsem. So a reader can add a RWSEM_READER_BIAS to count without setting owner to signal a reader, got preempted out by a RT task which then spins in the writer slowpath as owner remains NULL leading to live lock. One easy way to fix this problem is to disable preemption at all the down_read*() and up_read() code paths as implemented in this patch.

rtmutex: Ensure that the top waiter is always woken up

2023-02-06T13:49:13Z

Let L1 and L2 be two spinlocks. Let T1 be a task holding L1 and blocked on L2. T1, currently, is the top waiter of L2. Let T2 be the task holding L2. Let T3 be a task trying to acquire L1. The following events will lead to a state in which the wait queue of L2 isn't empty, but no task actually holds the lock. T1 T2 T3 == == == spin_lock(L1) | raw_spin_lock(L1->wait_lock) | rtlock_slowlock_locked(L1) | | task_blocks_on_rt_mutex(L1, T3) | | | orig_waiter->lock = L1 | | | orig_waiter->task = T3 | | | raw_spin_unlock(L1->wait_lock) | | | rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain(T1, L1, L2, orig_waiter, T3) spin_unlock(L2) | | | | | rt_mutex_slowunlock(L2) | | | | | | raw_spin_lock(L2->wait_lock) | | | | | | wakeup(T1) | | | | | | raw_spin_unlock(L2->wait_lock) | | | | | | | | waiter = T1->pi_blocked_on | | | | waiter == rt_mutex_top_waiter(L2) | | | | waiter->task == T1 | | | | raw_spin_lock(L2->wait_lock) | | | | dequeue(L2, waiter) | | | | update_prio(waiter, T1) | | | | enqueue(L2, waiter) | | | | waiter != rt_mutex_top_waiter(L2) | | | | L2->owner == NULL | | | | wakeup(T1) | | | | raw_spin_unlock(L2->wait_lock) T1 wakes up T1 != top_waiter(L2) schedule_rtlock() If the deadline of T1 is updated before the call to update_prio(), and the new deadline is greater than the deadline of the second top waiter, then after the requeue, T1 is no longer the top waiter, and the wrong task is woken up which will then go back to sleep because it is not the top waiter. This can be reproduced in PREEMPT_RT with stress-ng: while true; do stress-ng --sched deadline --sched-period 1000000000 \ --sched-runtime 800000000 --sched-deadline \ 1000000000 --mmapfork 23 -t 20 done A similar issue was pointed out by Thomas versus the cases where the top waiter drops out early due to a signal or timeout, which is a general issue for all regular rtmutex use cases, e.g. futex. The problematic code is in rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain(): // Save the top waiter before dequeue/enqueue prerequeue_top_waiter = rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock); rt_mutex_dequeue(lock, waiter); waiter_update_prio(waiter, task); rt_mutex_enqueue(lock, waiter); // Lock has no owner? if (!rt_mutex_owner(lock)) { // Top waiter changed ----> if (prerequeue_top_waiter != rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock)) ----> wake_up_state(waiter->task, waiter->wake_state); This only takes the case into account where @waiter is the new top waiter due to the requeue operation. But it fails to handle the case where @waiter is not longer the top waiter due to the requeue operation. Ensure that the new top waiter is woken up so in all cases so it can take over the ownerless lock.

rtmutex: Add acquire semantics for rtmutex lock acquisition slow path

2022-12-12T18:55:56Z

Jan Kara reported the following bug triggering on 6.0.5-rt14 running dbench on XFS on arm64. kernel BUG at fs/inode.c:625! Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT_RT SMP CPU: 11 PID: 6611 Comm: dbench Tainted: G E 6.0.0-rt14-rt+ #1 pc : clear_inode+0xa0/0xc0 lr : clear_inode+0x38/0xc0 Call trace: clear_inode+0xa0/0xc0 evict+0x160/0x180 iput+0x154/0x240 do_unlinkat+0x184/0x300 __arm64_sys_unlinkat+0x48/0xc0 el0_svc_common.constprop.4+0xe4/0x2c0 do_el0_svc+0xac/0x100 el0_svc+0x78/0x200 el0t_64_sync_handler+0x9c/0xc0 el0t_64_sync+0x19c/0x1a0 It also affects 6.1-rc7-rt5 and affects a preempt-rt fork of 5.14 so this is likely a bug that existed forever and only became visible when ARM support was added to preempt-rt. The same problem does not occur on x86-64 and he also reported that converting sb->s_inode_wblist_lock to raw_spinlock_t makes the problem disappear indicating that the RT spinlock variant is the problem. Which in turn means that RT mutexes on ARM64 and any other weakly ordered architecture are affected by this independent of RT. Will Deacon observed: "I'd be more inclined to be suspicious of the slowpath tbh, as we need to make sure that we have acquire semantics on all paths where the lock can be taken. Looking at the rtmutex code, this really isn't obvious to me -- for example, try_to_take_rt_mutex() appears to be able to return via the 'takeit' label without acquire semantics and it looks like we might be relying on the caller's subsequent _unlock_ of the wait_lock for ordering, but that will give us release semantics which aren't correct." Sebastian Andrzej Siewior prototyped a fix that does work based on that comment but it was a little bit overkill and added some fences that should not be necessary. The lock owner is updated with an IRQ-safe raw spinlock held, but the spin_unlock does not provide acquire semantics which are needed when acquiring a mutex. Adds the necessary acquire semantics for lock owner updates in the slow path acquisition and the waiter bit logic. It successfully completed 10 iterations of the dbench workload while the vanilla kernel fails on the first iteration.

lockdep: allow instrumenting lockdep.c with KMSAN

2022-12-12T02:12:11Z

Lockdep and KMSAN used to play badly together, causing deadlocks when KMSAN instrumentation of lockdep.c called lockdep functions recursively. Looks like this is no more the case, and a kernel can run (yet slower) with both KMSAN and lockdep enabled. This patch should fix false positives on wq_head->lock->dep_map, which KMSAN used to consider uninitialized because of lockdep.c not being instrumented.
