BUG: HANG_DETECT waiting for migration_cpu_stop() complete

["Ryan Xiao (肖水林)" <Ryan.Xiao@mediatek.com>]

Hi,

We meet the HANG_DETECT happened in T SW version with kernel-5.15.
Many tasks have been blocked for a long time.


Root cause:
migration_cpu_stop() is not complete due to is_migration_disabled(p) is
true, complete is false and complete_all() never get executed.
It let other task wait the rwsem.

Detail:
system_server waiting for cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem.
OomAdjuster is holding the cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem and waiting for
cpuset_rwsem.
cpuset_hotplug_workfn is holding the cpuset_rwsem and waiting for
affine_move_task() complete.
affine_move_task() waiting for migration_cpu_stop() complete.

The backtrace of system_server:
__switch_to
__schedule
schedule
percpu_rwsem_wait
__percpu_down_read
cgroup_css_set_fork => wait for cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem
cgroup_can_fork
copy_process
kernel_clone

The backtrace of OomAdjuster:
__switch_to
__schedule
schedule
percpu_rwsem_wait
percpu_down_write
cpuset_can_attach => wait for cpuset_rwsem
cgroup_migrate_execute
cgroup_attach_task
__cgroup1_procs_write => hold cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem
cgroup1_procs_write
cgroup_file_write
kernfs_fop_write_iter
vfs_write
ksys_write
The backtrace of cpuset_hotplug_workfn:
__switch_to
__schedule
schedule
schedule_timeout
wait_for_common
affine_move_task => wait for complete
__set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked
update_tasks_cpumask
cpuset_hotplug_update_tasks => hold cpuset_rwsem
cpuset_hotplug_workfn
process_one_work
worker_thread
kthread


In affine_move_task() will call migration_cpu_stop() and wait for it
complete.
In normal case, if migration_cpu_stop() complete it will inform
everyone that he is done.
But there is an exception case that will not notify.
If is_migration_disabled(p) is true and complete will always is false,
then complete_all() never get executed.

static int migration_cpu_stop(void *data)
{
...
    bool complete = false;
...

    if (task_rq(p) == rq) {
        if (is_migration_disabled(p))
              goto out; => is_migration_disabled(p) = true,
                           so complete = false.
            ...
        }
...

out:
...
    if (complete) => complete = false,
                     so complete_all() never get executed.
        complete_all(&pending->done);

        return 0;
}
Review the code, we found that there are many places can change
is_migration_disabled() value.
(such as: __rt_spin_lock(), rt_read_lock(), rt_write_lock(), ...)

Do you have any suggestion for this issue?
Thank you.
