sched/debug: Don't dump sched debug info in SysRq-W

2017-06-20T12:04:19Z

commit fb90a6e93c0684ab2629a42462400603aa829b9c upstream. sysrq_sched_debug_show() can dump a lot of information. Don't print out all that if we're just trying to get a list of blocked tasks (SysRq-W). The information is still accessible with SysRq-T.

sched/core: Fix an SMP ordering race in try_to_wake_up() vs. schedule()

2017-02-06T08:04:07Z

commit ecf7d01c229d11a44609c0067889372c91fb4f36 upstream. Oleg noticed that its possible to falsely observe p->on_cpu == 0 such that we'll prematurely continue with the wakeup and effectively run p on two CPUs at the same time. Even though the overlap is very limited; the task is in the middle of being scheduled out; it could still result in corruption of the scheduler data structures. CPU0 CPU1 set_current_state(...) context_switch(X, Y) prepare_lock_switch(Y) Y->on_cpu = 1; finish_lock_switch(X) store_release(X->on_cpu, 0); try_to_wake_up(X) LOCK(p->pi_lock); t = X->on_cpu; // 0 context_switch(Y, X) prepare_lock_switch(X) X->on_cpu = 1; finish_lock_switch(Y) store_release(Y->on_cpu, 0); schedule(); deactivate_task(X); X->on_rq = 0; if (X->on_rq) // false if (t) while (X->on_cpu) cpu_relax(); context_switch(X, ..) finish_lock_switch(X) store_release(X->on_cpu, 0); Avoid the load of X->on_cpu being hoisted over the X->on_rq load.

sched/core: Fix a race between try_to_wake_up() and a woken up task

2017-02-06T08:04:07Z

commit 135e8c9250dd5c8c9aae5984fde6f230d0cbfeaf upstream. The origin of the issue I've seen is related to a missing memory barrier between check for task->state and the check for task->on_rq. The task being woken up is already awake from a schedule() and is doing the following: do { schedule() set_current_state(TASK_(UN)INTERRUPTIBLE); } while (!cond); The waker, actually gets stuck doing the following in try_to_wake_up(): while (p->on_cpu) cpu_relax(); Analysis: The instance I've seen involves the following race: CPU1 CPU2 while () { if (cond) break; do { schedule(); set_current_state(TASK_UN..) } while (!cond); wakeup_routine() spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock) raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock) wake_up_process() } try_to_wake_up() set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING); .. list_del(&waiter.list); CPU2 wakes up CPU1, but before it can get the wait_lock and set current state to TASK_RUNNING the following occurs: CPU3 wakeup_routine() raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock) if (!list_empty) wake_up_process() try_to_wake_up() raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock) .. if (p->on_rq && ttwu_wakeup()) .. while (p->on_cpu) cpu_relax() .. CPU3 tries to wake up the task on CPU1 again since it finds it on the wait_queue, CPU1 is spinning on wait_lock, but immediately after CPU2, CPU3 got it. CPU3 checks the state of p on CPU1, it is TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and the task is spinning on the wait_lock. Interestingly since p->on_rq is checked under pi_lock, I've noticed that try_to_wake_up() finds p->on_rq to be 0. This was the most confusing bit of the analysis, but p->on_rq is changed under runqueue lock, rq_lock, the p->on_rq check is not reliable without this fix IMHO. The race is visible (based on the analysis) only when ttwu_queue() does a remote wakeup via ttwu_queue_remote. In which case the p->on_rq change is not done uder the pi_lock. The result is that after a while the entire system locks up on the raw_spin_irqlock_save(wait_lock) and the holder spins infintely Reproduction of the issue: The issue can be reproduced after a long run on my system with 80 threads and having to tweak available memory to very low and running memory stress-ng mmapfork test. It usually takes a long time to reproduce. I am trying to work on a test case that can reproduce the issue faster, but thats work in progress. I am still testing the changes on my still in a loop and the tests seem OK thus far. Big thanks to Benjamin and Nick for helping debug this as well. Ben helped catch the missing barrier, Nick caught every missing bit in my theory. Signed-off-by: Balbir Singh [ Updated comment to clarify matching barriers.

sched/cputime: Fix steal time accounting vs. CPU hotplug

2016-06-07T08:42:48Z

commit e9532e69b8d1d1284e8ecf8d2586de34aec61244 upstream. On CPU hotplug the steal time accounting can keep a stale rq->prev_steal_time value over CPU down and up. So after the CPU comes up again the delta calculation in steal_account_process_tick() wreckages itself due to the unsigned math: u64 steal = paravirt_steal_clock(smp_processor_id()); steal -= this_rq()->prev_steal_time; So if steal is smaller than rq->prev_steal_time we end up with an insane large value which then gets added to rq->prev_steal_time, resulting in a permanent wreckage of the accounting. As a consequence the per CPU stats in /proc/stat become stale. Nice trick to tell the world how idle the system is (100%) while the CPU is 100% busy running tasks. Though we prefer realistic numbers. None of the accounting values which use a previous value to account for fractions is reset at CPU hotplug time. update_rq_clock_task() has a sanity check for prev_irq_time and prev_steal_time_rq, but that sanity check solely deals with clock warps and limits the /proc/stat visible wreckage. The prev_time values are still wrong. Solution is simple: Reset rq->prev_*_time when the CPU is plugged in again.

sched/core: Remove false-positive warning from wake_up_process()

commit 119d6f6a3be8b424b200dcee56e74484d5445f7e upstream. Because wakeups can (fundamentally) be late, a task might not be in the expected state. Therefore testing against a task's state is racy, and can yield false positives.

printk: rename printk_sched to printk_deferred

commit aac74dc495456412c4130a1167ce4beb6c1f0b38 upstream. After learning we'll need some sort of deferred printk functionality in the timekeeping core, Peter suggested we rename the printk_sched function so it can be reused by needed subsystems. This only changes the function name. No logic changes.

sched: Fix race on toggling cfs_bandwidth_used

2014-01-15T23:28:54Z

commit 1ee14e6c8cddeeb8a490d7b54cd9016e4bb900b4 upstream. When we transition cfs_bandwidth_used to false, any currently throttled groups will incorrectly return false from cfs_rq_throttled. While tg_set_cfs_bandwidth will unthrottle them eventually, currently running code (including at least dequeue_task_fair and distribute_cfs_runtime) will cause errors. Fix this by turning off cfs_bandwidth_used only after unthrottling all cfs_rqs. Tested: toggle bandwidth back and forth on a loaded cgroup. Caused crashes in minutes without the patch, hasn't crashed with it.

sched: fix the theoretical signal_wake_up() vs schedule() race

2014-01-09T20:24:23Z

commit e0acd0a68ec7dbf6b7a81a87a867ebd7ac9b76c4 upstream. This is only theoretical, but after try_to_wake_up(p) was changed to check p->state under p->pi_lock the code like __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); schedule(); can miss a signal. This is the special case of wait-for-condition, it relies on try_to_wake_up/schedule interaction and thus it does not need mb() between __set_current_state() and if(signal_pending). However, this __set_current_state() can move into the critical section protected by rq->lock, now that try_to_wake_up() takes another lock we need to ensure that it can't be reordered with "if (signal_pending(current))" check inside that section. The patch is actually one-liner, it simply adds smp_wmb() before spin_lock_irq(rq->lock). This is what try_to_wake_up() already does by the same reason. We turn this wmb() into the new helper, smp_mb__before_spinlock(), for better documentation and to allow the architectures to change the default implementation. While at it, kill smp_mb__after_lock(), it has no callers. Perhaps we can also add smp_mb__before/after_spinunlock() for prepare_to_wait().
