Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v5.14-rc3-rt1 patch set. 

Changes since v5.13-rc3-rt1:

  - Update to v5.14-rc3

  - Update the locking bits.

  - Update the mm/slub bits from Vlastimil Babka. The SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL
    can now be enabled/ disabled. There is a significant hackbench
    related regression due to the rework compared to the old SLUB bits
    we had. However I haven't seen anything in real-world workload. If
    there is anything, please let me know.

  - The "Memory controller" (CONFIG_MEMCG) has been disabled due to
    optimisations which it received as it made it incompatible with
    PREEMPT_RT.

  - A RCU and ARM64 warning has been fixed by Valentin Schneider. It is
    still not clear if the RCU related change is correct.

  - A fix for a ARM64 regression which popped up in the v5.13 released
    that led to a freeze while starting the init process.

Known issues
     - netconsole triggers WARN.

You can get this release via the git tree at:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git v5.14-rc3-rt1

The RT patch against v5.14-rc3 can be found here:

Damn, I was hoping to figure out wth is going on before the 62 patch
version of tglx/rtmutex branch made its way out into the big wide
world, but alas, I was too slow.

I started meeting GUI hangs as soon as I merged the 62 patch series
into my 5.13-rt based master tree.  I took tglx/rtmutex (977db8e523f5)
back to 5.13-rt to make sure it wasn't some booboo I had made in the
rolled forward tree, but the hangs followed the backport, and I just
met them in virgin v5.14-rc3-rt1, so unfortunately it wasn't some local
booboo, there's a bug lurking.  Maybe a config sensitive one, as what
I'm seeing on my box seems unlikely to escape into the wild otherwise.

First symptom is KDE/Plasma's task manager going comatose.  Notice soon
enough with a !lockdep kernel, and I can crashdump, or rather I can
with my 5.13-rt based kernel, a dump from shiny new rt1 can't be loaded
by crash for some reason.  The local tree dumps I've looked at haven't
been helpful anyway, box at a glance looks fine.  With lockdep enabled,
a failing kernel gets so buggered it isn't even able to crashdump.

config attached.  Oh, a lockdep enabled kernel fails sooner, but both
fail here fairly quickly.

KDE/Plasma points at the new fangled rtmutex based ww_mutex from
Peter. I tried to test the heck out of it...

Which graphics driver is in use on that machine?

Ouch.

Thanks,

Yeah, that seems to be most of the delta from 50->62 [now 63] commit
delta, and the 50 turning out to be what I was already running.  I'm
staring, but as yet, nothing has poked me in the eye.

And futextests, rt-tests etc work fine, just stay away from GUI.

The all too often problem child nouveau, but I don't _think_ it's
playing a roll in this, as nomodeset hangs as well.  I'll stuff it into
lappy (i915) to double check that.

Hm, lappy doesn't seem to want to hang.  i915 isn't virgin, it needing
a couple bandaids, but I doubt my grubby fingerprints matter.

The same kernel in a KVM that's essentially a mirror of my desktop box
(as is lappy), running under a stable kernel didn't even get the GUI
fully up before hanging.  I was able to login and crash it via virsh,
and as with previous dumps, there's nothing running except the shell
that's me nuking it.  All the GUI goop looks rather sleeping beauty
like.. no evil stepmothers in sight, just snoozing away.

Hours later i915 lappy is still working fine.

The problem is not my nvidia/nouveau desktop box. Taking KVM images
over to lappy on a USB SSD, the same QXL vbox that hangs with desktop
box as host also hangs with lappy as host.. a host that's still running
the very same kernel, the same build in fact (all instances are), just
fine.

Seems not.  When booting KVM box with nomodeset, there's exactly one
early boot ww_mutex lock/unlock, ancient history at the failure point.

As you've probably already surmised given it isn't the ww_mutex bits,
it's the wake_q bits.  Apply the below, 5.14-rt ceases to fail.  Take
perfectly healthy 5.13-rt, apply those bits, and it instantly begins
failing as 5.14-rt had been.

Given what you have replied to the locking thread/
ww_mutex_lock_interruptible() may I assume that the wake_q bits are fine
and it is just the ww_mutex?

Nope.  Before I even reverted the wake_q bits, I assembled a tree with
the ww_mutex changes completely removed to be absolutely certain that
they were innocent, and it indeed did retain its lost wakeup woes
despite complete loss of newfangled ww_mutex.  5.13-rt acquired those
same wakeup woes by receiving ONLY the wake_q bits, and 5.14-rt was
cured of those woes by ONLY them being reverted. I'm not seeing the
why, but those bits are either the source or the trigger of 5.14-rt
lost wakeup woes... they're toxic in some way shape fashion or form.

Okay. So the ww-mutex bits are not the cure then. All you do is booting
KDE/Plasma in kvm with virtio as GPU or did I mix up things?

My VMs are all full on clones of my desktop box, running KDE/Plasma
desktop, CPUS are setup to mirror my i4790, and they get half of box's
ram.  VMs are a "mini-me" wart hanging off the side of the real box,
NFS mounting various spots of the host where the data won't fit its
64GB virtual disk.  Display is Spice, video is QXL.

now staring at it makes it pretty obvious. When I picked up Peter's
patch I thought about it briefly and then ignored my doubts :(

This is the key. With the original asymmetric version the wake_q_add for
wake_state != TASK_NORMAL is storing the task unconditionally in
wqh->rtlock_task.

With that wake_q_add() we end up with the following situation:

Some code, e.g. futex does:

     wake_q_add(..., task)

which links task->wake_q->next is !NULL. Ergo the wake_q_add() in the
rtmutex code bails out. Same the other way round if the rtmutex side
queues first then the second - regular wakeup - will not be queued.

There's two ways to fix that:

  1) Go back to my original version

  2) Add another wake_q head to task_struct

#2 is overkill IMO simply because the rtlock wait is not subject to
multiple wakeups.

Thanks a lot Mike for tracking this down!

Thanks,

        tglx
