timers: Fix warning condition in __run_timers()

2022-04-20T07:34:21Z

commit c54bc0fc84214b203f7a0ebfd1bd308ce2abe920 upstream. When the timer base is empty, base::next_expiry is set to base::clk + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA and base::next_expiry_recalc is false. When no timer is queued until jiffies reaches base::next_expiry value, the warning for not finding any expired timer and base::next_expiry_recalc is false in __run_timers() triggers. To prevent triggering the warning in this valid scenario base::timers_pending needs to be added to the warning condition.

timers: implement usleep_idle_range()

2021-12-14T09:57:11Z

commit e4779015fd5d2fb8390c258268addff24d6077c7 upstream. Patch series "mm/damon: Fix fake /proc/loadavg reports", v3. This patchset fixes DAMON's fake load report issue. The first patch makes yet another variant of usleep_range() for this fix, and the second patch fixes the issue of DAMON by making it using the newly introduced function. This patch (of 2): Some kernel threads such as DAMON could need to repeatedly sleep in micro seconds level. Because usleep_range() sleeps in uninterruptible state, however, such threads would make /proc/loadavg reports fake load. To help such cases, this commit implements a variant of usleep_range() called usleep_idle_range(). It is same to usleep_range() but sets the state of the current task as TASK_IDLE while sleeping.

timers: Move clearing of base::timer_running under base:: Lock

2021-07-27T18:57:44Z

syzbot reported KCSAN data races vs. timer_base::timer_running being set to NULL without holding base::lock in expire_timers(). This looks innocent and most reads are clearly not problematic, but Frederic identified an issue which is: int data = 0; void timer_func(struct timer_list *t) { data = 1; } CPU 0 CPU 1 ------------------------------ -------------------------- base = lock_timer_base(timer, &flags); raw_spin_unlock(&base->lock); if (base->running_timer != timer) call_timer_fn(timer, fn, baseclk); ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true); base->running_timer = NULL; raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&base->lock, flags); raw_spin_lock(&base->lock); x = data; If the timer has previously executed on CPU 1 and then CPU 0 can observe base->running_timer == NULL and returns, assuming the timer has completed, but it's not guaranteed on all architectures. The comment for del_timer_sync() makes that guarantee. Moving the assignment under base->lock prevents this. For non-RT kernel it's performance wise completely irrelevant whether the store happens before or after taking the lock. For an RT kernel moving the store under the lock requires an extra unlock/lock pair in the case that there is a waiter for the timer, but that's not the end of the world.

timers: Fix get_next_timer_interrupt() with no timers pending

2021-07-14T23:23:54Z

31cd0e119d50 ("timers: Recalculate next timer interrupt only when necessary") subtly altered get_next_timer_interrupt()'s behaviour. The function no longer consistently returns KTIME_MAX with no timers pending. In order to decide if there are any timers pending we check whether the next expiry will happen NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA jiffies from now. Unfortunately, the next expiry time and the timer base clock are no longer updated in unison. The former changes upon certain timer operations (enqueue, expire, detach), whereas the latter keeps track of jiffies as they move forward. Ultimately breaking the logic above. A simplified example: - Upon entering get_next_timer_interrupt() with: jiffies = 1 base->clk = 0; base->next_expiry = NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA; 'base->next_expiry == base->clk + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA', the function returns KTIME_MAX. - 'base->clk' is updated to the jiffies value. - The next time we enter get_next_timer_interrupt(), taking into account no timer operations happened: base->clk = 1; base->next_expiry = NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA; 'base->next_expiry != base->clk + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA', the function returns a valid expire time, which is incorrect. This ultimately might unnecessarily rearm sched's timer on nohz_full setups, and add latency to the system[1]. So, introduce 'base->timers_pending'[2], update it every time 'base->next_expiry' changes, and use it in get_next_timer_interrupt(). [1] See tick_nohz_stop_tick(). [2] A quick pahole check on x86_64 and arm64 shows it doesn't make 'struct timer_base' any bigger.
