Currently system reboots uses architecture specific codes (smp_send_stop)
to offline non reboot CPUs. Most architecture's implementation is looping
through all non reboot online CPUs and call ipi function to each of them. Some
architecture like arm64, arm, and x86... would set offline masks to cpu without
really offline them. This causes some race condition and kernel warning comes
out sometimes when system reboots.

This patch adds a config ARCH_OFFLINE_CPUS_ON_REBOOT, which would offline cpus in
migrate_to_reboot_cpu(). If non reboot cpus are all offlined here, the loop for
checking online cpus would be an empty loop. If architecture don't enable this
config, or some cpus somehow fails to offline, it would fallback to ipi
function.

Opt in this config for architectures that support CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

Change from v4:
* fix a few nits: naming, comments, remove Kconfig text...

Change from v3:
* Opt in config for architectures that support CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
* Merge function offline_secondary_cpus() and freeze_secondary_cpus()
  with an additional flag.

Change from v2:
* Add another config instead of configed by CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU

This does not seem to be a very good idea, since
freeze_secondary_cpus() does much more than you need for reboot.

For reboot, you basically only need to do something like this AFAICS:

cpu_maps_update_begin();

for_each_online_cpu(i) {
        if (i != cpu)
                _cpu_down(i, 1, CPUHP_OFFLINE);
}
cpu_hotplug_disabled++;

cpu_maps_update_done();

And you may put this into a function defined outside of CONFIG_PM_SLEEP.

So why exactly is this new Kconfig option needed?

Everybody supporting CPU hotplug seems to opt in anyway.

Please avoid using #ifdefs in function bodies.  This makes the code
hard to maintain in the long term.

You can write this as

if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_OFFLINE_CPUS_ON_REBOOT))
        cpu_hotplug_disable();

That's what IS_ENABLED() is there for.

v2's implementation is similar to this. The conclusion in v2[1] is
that since these 2 functions are similar, we should merge them. I'm
fine both ways but slightly prefer v2's. Maybe wait for others to
comment?

Currently we opt-in for all arch that supports HOTPLUG_CPU, but if
some arch decides that this would make reboot slow (or maybe other
reasons), they can choose to opt-out.
I have only tested on arm64 and x86 for now.

What's the timing impact on systems with large number of CPUs(say 256 or
more) ? I remember we added some change to reduce the wait times for
offlining CPUs in system suspend path on arm64, still not negligible.

'some race condition and kernel warning' is pretty useless information.
Please describe exactly which kind of issues are caused by the current
mechanism. Especially the race conditions are the interesting part (the
warnings are just a consequence).

Please read Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst and search for
'This patch'.

This does not make any sense. The issues which you are trying to solve
are going to be still there when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is disabled.

> If architecture don't enable this config, or some cpus somehow fails
> to offline, it would fallback to ipi function.

This is really a half baken solution which keeps the various pointlessly
different pseudo reboot/kexec offlining implementations around. So with
this we have yet more code which only works depending on kernel
configuration and has the issue of potentially not being able to offline
a CPU. IOW this is going to fail completely in cases where a system is
in a state which prevents regular hotplug.

The existing pseudo-offline functions have timeouts and eventually a
fallback, e.g. the NMI fallback on x86. With this proposed regular
offline solution this will just get stuck w/o a chance to force
recovery.

While I like the idea and surely agree that the ideal solution is to
properly shutdown the CPUs on reboot, we need to take a step back and
look at the minimum requirements for a regular shutdown/reboot and at
the same time have a look at the requirements for emergency shutdown and
kexec/kcrash. Having proper information about the race conditions and
warnings you mentioned would be a good starting point.

> Opt in this config for architectures that support CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

This is not opt-in. You force that on all architectures which support
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU. The way we do this normally is to provide the
infrastructure first and then have separate patches (one per
architecture) enabling this, which allows the architecture maintainers
to decide individually.

Thanks,

        tglx

We saw this issue on regular reboot (not panic) on arm64: If tick
broadcast and smp_send_stop() happen together and the first broadcast
arrives to some idled CPU that hasn't already executed reboot ipi to
run in spinloop, it would try to broadcast to another CPU, but that
target CPU is already marked as offline by set_cpu_online() in reboot
ipi, and a warning comes out since tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast()
would check if it tries to broadcast to offline cpus. Most of the time
the CPU getting the broadcast interrupt is already in the spinloop and
thus isn't going to receive interrupts from the broadcast timer.

If system supports hotplug, _cpu_down() would properly handle tasks
termination such as remove CPU from timer broadcasting by
tick_offline_cpu()...etc, as well as some interrupt handling.

https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1117201/ is a previous attempt
to solve this issue by introducing another mask in reboot ipi function
to avoid the cpu_online_mask being looked up in too many different
places.

This is not the final solution, but I would still provided some data
points here:

Tested on my arm64 with 4 cpu: 2 a53 and 2 a72.
Offlining 3 cpu takes about 60~65 ms
Offlining 2 cpu(a53+a72 or a72+a72) takes about 42~47 ms
Offlining 1 cpu(a53 or a72) takes about 23~25 ms.

It would take longer time for systems with large number of CPUs.

The timer broadcasting is obviously broken by the existing reboot unplug
mechanism as the outgoing CPU should remove itself from the broadcast.

Just addressing the broadcast issue is not sufficient as there are tons
of other places which rely on consistency of the various cpu masks.

Well, emphasis on 'if system supports hotplug'. If not, then you are
back to square one. On ARM64 hotplug is selectable by a config option.

So either we mandate HOTPLUG_CPU for SMP and get rid of all the
ifdeffery or we need to have a mechanism which works on !HOTPLUG_CPU as
well.

That whole reboot/shutdown stuff is an unpenetrable mess of notifiers
and architecture hackery, so something generic and understandable is
really required.

Thanks,
