[PATCH RT 0/8] Linux 3.2.53-rt76-rc1

[PATCH RT 0/8] Linux 3.2.53-rt76-rc1

[Steven Rostedt]

Dear RT Folks,

This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.2.53-rt76-rc1.

Note, the reason I did not release this earlier, was that I found
that the v3.2-rt series was locking up with my cpu hotplug stress test.
I finally got some time to debug this, and found that the problem was
in the invalidate_bh_lrs() where it was stuck in the on_each_cpu() call
where it was waiting for an offline CPU. Looking at what 3.4-rt does,
which does not have this problem, there were three patches in mainline
from Gilad Ben-Yossef that appears to fix the issue. At least it
makes the symptom go away. I may look into this deeper to make sure
that we did not just make a race window much harder to hit, and really
did fix the problem. But as 3.2-rt is now as stable as 3.4-rt and later
I can finally release this candidate.

Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too.

The -rc release will be uploaded to kernel.org and will be deleted when
the final release is out. This is just a review release (or release candidate).

The pre-releases will not be pushed to the git repository, only the
final release is.

If all goes well, this patch will be converted to the next main release
on 1/17/2014.

Enjoy,

-- Steve

[PATCH RT 1/8] cpu_down: move migrate_enable() back

------------------

From: Tiejun Chen <tiejun.chen@windriver.com>

Commit 08c1ab68, "hotplug-use-migrate-disable.patch", intends to
use migrate_enable()/migrate_disable() to replace that combination
of preempt_enable() and preempt_disable(), but actually in
!CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL case, migrate_enable()/migrate_disable()
are still equal to preempt_enable()/preempt_disable(). So that
followed cpu_hotplug_begin()/cpu_unplug_begin(cpu) would go schedule()
to trigger schedule_debug() like this:

_cpu_down()
	|
	+ migrate_disable() = preempt_disable()
	|
	+ cpu_hotplug_begin() or cpu_unplug_begin()
		|
		+ schedule()
			|
			+ __schedule()
				|
				+ preempt_disable();
				|
				+ __schedule_bug() is true!

So we should move migrate_enable() as the original scheme.

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

The wait-simple queue is lighter weight and more efficient than the full
wait queue, and may be used in atomic context on PREEMPT_RT.

Fix up some places that needed to call the swait_*() functions instead
of the wait_*() functions.

[PATCH RT 3/8] lockdep: Correctly annotate hardirq context in irq_exit()

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0003-lockdep-Correctly-annotate-hardirq-context-in-irq_ex.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4289 bytes --]

3.2.53-rt76-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

There was a reported deadlock on -rt which lockdep didn't report.

It turns out that in irq_exit() we tell lockdep that the hardirq
context ends and then do all kinds of locking afterwards.

To fix it, move trace_hardirq_exit() to the very end of irq_exit(), this
ensures all locking in tick_irq_exit() and rcu_irq_exit() are properly
recorded as happening from hardirq context.

This however leads to the 'fun' little problem of running softirqs
while in hardirq context. To cure this make the softirq code a little
more complex (in the CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS case).

Due to stack swizzling arch dependent trickery we cannot pass an
argument to __do_softirq() to tell it if it was done from hardirq
context or not; so use a side-band argument.

When we do __do_softirq() from hardirq context, 'atomically' flip to
softirq context and back, so that no locking goes without being in
either hard- or soft-irq context.

I didn't find any new problems in mainline using this patch, but it
did show the -rt problem.

lock_timer_base() does a try_lock() which deadlocks on the waiter lock
not the lock itself.
This patch takes the waiter_lock with trylock so it should work from interrupt
context as well. If the fastpath doesn't work and the waiter_lock itself is
taken then it seems that the lock itself taken.
This patch also adds a "rt_spin_try_unlock" to keep lockdep happy. If we
managed to take the wait_lock in the first place we should also be able
to take it in the unlock path.

[PATCH RT 5/8] smp: introduce a generic on_each_cpu_mask() function

------------------

From: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com>

[ Upstream commit 3fc498f165304dc913f1d13b5ac9ab4c758ee7ab ]

We have lots of infrastructure in place to partition multi-core systems
such that we have a group of CPUs that are dedicated to specific task:
cgroups, scheduler and interrupt affinity, and cpuisol= boot parameter.
Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs
for various needs.  These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided
altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific
CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system.

This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic
Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying
to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls
are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group
of CPUs.  The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the
right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is
even worth dealing with at all.  Based on the feedback from this patch set
I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code
paths.

This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond()
infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific
versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI
invocation to per CPU group invocations.

Core kernel:

on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask,
which may or may not include the local processor.

You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a
hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler.

arch/arm:

Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one:

1. It has the mask as first parameter
2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled,
   but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
   with interrupts disabled anyway.

arch/tile:

The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version
also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case

This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
with interrupts disabled.

[PATCH RT 6/8] smp: add func to IPI cpus based on parameter func

From: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com>

[ Upstream commit b3a7e98e024ffa9f7e4554dd720c508015c4a831 ]

Add the on_each_cpu_cond() function that wraps on_each_cpu_mask() and
calculates the cpumask of cpus to IPI by calling a function supplied as a
parameter in order to determine whether to IPI each specific cpu.

The function works around allocation failure of cpumask variable in
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y by itereating over cpus sending an IPI a time
via smp_call_function_single().

The function is useful since it allows to seperate the specific code that
decided in each case whether to IPI a specific cpu for a specific request
from the common boilerplate code of handling creating the mask, handling
failures etc.

[PATCH RT 7/8] fs: only send IPI to invalidate LRU BH when needed

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0007-fs-only-send-IPI-to-invalidate-LRU-BH-when-needed.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1946 bytes --]

3.2.53-rt76-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com>

[ Upstream commit 42be35d0390b966253136a285f507f5ad00fd9e8 ]

In several code paths, such as when unmounting a file system (but not
only) we send an IPI to ask each cpu to invalidate its local LRU BHs.

For multi-cores systems that have many cpus that may not have any LRU BH
because they are idle or because they have not performed any file system
accesses since last invalidation (e.g.  CPU crunching on high perfomance
computing nodes that write results to shared memory or only using
filesystems that do not use the bh layer.) This can lead to loss of
performance each time someone switches the KVM (the virtual keyboard and
screen type, not the hypervisor) if it has a USB storage stuck in.

This patch attempts to only send an IPI to cpus that have LRU BH.

Not sure this is needed without the tglx don't unconditionally raise
timer softirq patch, and with that patch applied in the form it exists
in 3.12-rt9, as well as this one, you'll still eventually deadlock.

Yeah, but I already had the -rt specific changes merged into 3.2.53
before 3.2.54 was released, and then I discovered the cpu hotplug bug.
I did not want to release that -rc until it was solved. Now that it is,
I can release this one and then move to 3.2.54.

Ouch, thanks for letting me know. I'll give it a try to make sure that
the patch is the same code that I tested.

I just fetched the 3.2.53 tar file & Steven's patches and I applied
the incremental patch and the all-in-one patch and I don't see this
fallout.

Hmm, I'll have to take a look. This sounds to be missing from all the
stable -rt kernels. I'll be pulling in the latest updates from 3.12-rt
soon.

Below are the two deadlocks I encountered with 3.12-rt9, which has both
$subject and timers-do-not-raise-softirq-unconditionally.patch applied.

With bandaids applied, no others appeared.

Unrelated to this, just FYI, hotplug is still racy in -rt, though I'm
suspecting -rt isn't really to blame.  I'm trying to finger it out now.

Your stress script makes virgin -rt9 explode in get_group() ala below.
You can also end up accessing bad domain data in idle_balance().. 64
core box with no SMT enabled enters idle_balance(), and finds SIBLING
domain with groups of 0 weight, and promptly do /0 in that case. 

This is virgin source running on 64 core DL980.. well, virgin plus one
trace_printk() to help asm-challenged self find stuff on the stack.

This patch was introduced because we had a deadlock in
run_local_timers() which took a sleeping lock in hardirq context. This
seem not to be the case in v3.2 therefore I would suggest not to take
this patch here because it does not fix anything.

Mike, do you see these deadlocks with 3.12.*-rt11 as well?

No.  I beat 64 core box hard configured both nohz_idle and nohz_full,
the only thing that fell out was the nohz_full irqs enabled warning.

If Stevens patch didn't fix them, it did make them hide very well.
