[RFC][PATCH 1/2] time: alarmtimer: Fix erroneous case of using 0 as an "invalid" initialization value

[John Stultz]

Michael reported seeing an error where alarmtimers would
occasionally not wake the system up.

It was found that in alarmtimer_suspend() it was exiting via
the:
    if (min == 0)
        return 0;
check. This logic was from one of the early versions of the
original alarmtimer patch, where we initialized min to 0, and
then this check would exit early if we found no timers to expire
(leaving min still at 0).

However, its possible for an alarmtimer to expire as we are
checking it, leaving the calculated delta to be zero, and thus
setting min to zero.

This is the result of my using 0 as an invalid time value which
is clearly erroneous. Instead KTIME_MAX should have been used.

This patch, split out from a change originally suggested by
Thomas Gleixner, changes the logic to instead use KTIME_MAX.

[RFC][PATCH 2/2] time: alarmtimer: Use TASK_FREEZABLE to cleanup freezer handling

[John Stultz]

Instead of trying to handle the freezer waking up tasks from
schedule() in nanosleep on alarmtimers explicitly, use
TASK_FREEZABLE which marks the task freezable when it goes
to schedule, which prevents the signal wakeup.

This allows for the freezer handling to be removed, simplifying
the code.

For kernel 5.10.x and lts is possible to use freezable_schedule and
let this set_current_state as was before.
I have seen patch that introduce the new state but I suppose that in
order to be compatible to stable this should be the
change. Am I right?

We always work against upstream first and there freezable_schedule() is
gone. Backports have to be sorted seperately.

I have changed the alarm test to check some corner case

I have the dequeue but not an enquee of the periodic alarm. I was
thinking that create a periodic time of 4 seconds
and have the first alarm on suspend will always guarantee the re-arm
it but it's not working as I expect

Again. You are not telling what you expect. It depends on how the timer
is set up whether the timer is self rearmed or not.

Posted the pseudo code. As far as I understand, the timer periodic is
re-armed in get_signal
do_work_pending->do_signal()->get_signal(), then in the posix timer
code the enqueue_alarm is called. All the timers
used from suspend are coming from the expiration list that contains
only the enqueue alarm

My test case is a single core, arm and with only one REAL_TIME_ALARM
periodic timer created.

There are no changes in the kernel apart pr_info on enqueue dequeue
and fired call
in alarmtimer.c. linux  master branch sha

Let me try to decode the above.

Yes, periodic timers are re-armed when the signal is delivered, but that
happens way later after the system resumed.

Here is what I observe:

[   27.349352] alarmtimer_enqueue()

U: Before SUSPEND

[   31.353228] PM: suspend entry (s2idle)
[   31.388857] Filesystems sync: 0.033 seconds
[   31.418427] Freezing user space processes
[   31.422406] Freezing user space processes completed (elapsed 0.002 seconds)
[   31.425435] OOM killer disabled.
[   31.426833] Freezing remaining freezable tasks
[   31.429838] Freezing remaining freezable tasks completed (elapsed 0.001 seconds)
[   31.432922] printk: Suspending console(s) (use no_console_suspend to debug)
[   31.435912] alarmtimer alarmtimer.0.auto: PM: dpm_run_callback(): platform_pm_suspend+0x0/0x50 returns -16
[   31.435954] alarmtimer alarmtimer.0.auto: PM: failed to suspend: error -16

That means the RTC interrupt was raised before the system was able to suspend.

[   31.436077] PM: Some devices failed to suspend, or early wake event detected
[   31.444270] OOM killer enabled.
[   31.445011] Restarting tasks ... done.
[   31.446820] random: crng reseeded on system resumption
[   31.466019] PM: suspend exit

[   31.480283] alarmtimer_fired()
[   31.481403] alarmtimer_dequeue()     <- Signal queued

[   31.482596] alarmtimer_rearm()_      <- Signal delivery
[   31.483713] alarmtimer_enqueue()

U: ALRM signal received                 <- User space signal handler
U: Post Suspend                         <- system("echo .... >") returns

That's 6.2 + John's patches.

Thanks,

if (ktime_to_ns(min) < 2 * NSEC_PER_SEC) {
    pm_wakeup_event(dev, 2 * MSEC_PER_SEC);
    return -EBUSY;
}

I think that above happens to you. So it means that you are too close
to this limit, can be?
Yes but the alarm for me was set to be fired just before freezing. Is
this a valid scenario? I can retest on 6.2

Let's say that I set an alarm to be fired just before the userspace
freeze happens. If I'm close to
it then then process will not process the signal to enquene again the
alarm in the list and then during
alarm suspend the list will be empty for the above.

So your suggestion is that something is wrong with my environment so I
will do the same on top of 6.2

Maybe.

Sure why not?

Halfways, but slowly your explanations start to make sense. Here is the
dmesg output you provided:

User space tasks are frozen now.

Here fires the underlying hrtimer before devices are suspended, so the
sig_sendqueue() cannot wake up the task because task->state ==
TASK_FROZEN, which means the signal wont be handled and the timer wont
be rearmed until the task is thawed.

And as you correctly observed the alarmtimer_suspend() path won't see a
pending timer anymore because it is dequeued.

So precisely the time between freeze(alarmtask) and alarmtimer_suspend()
is a gaping hole which guarantees lost wakeups.

That's completely unrelated to Johns patches. That hole has been there
forever.

I assume that this horrible freezer hackery was supposed to plug that
hole, but that gem is not solving anything as far as I understand what
it is doing. I'm still failing to understand what it is supposed to
solve, but that's a different story.

Aside of that I can clearly reproduce the issue, now that I understand
what you are trying to tell, on plain 6.2 without and with John's
cleanup.

Something like the below plugs the hole reliably.

Thanks,

That was clear, but I was trying to test the race here.

       ptr->it_active = 0;
        if (ptr->it_interval) {
                atomic_inc(&alarmtimer_wakeup);
                si_private = ++ptr->it_requeue_pending;

Should I not go to the alarm_handle_timer? and only if it's a periodic one?

Why?

Any alarmtimer which hits that window has exactly the same problem.

It's not restricted to periodic timers. Why would a dropped one-shot
wakeup be acceptable?

It's neither restricted to posix timers. If a clock_nanosleep(ALARM)
expires in that window then the task wake up will just end up in the
/dev/null bucket for the very same reason. Why would this be correct?

Hmm?

Hey Michael, Thomas,
 Sorry for being a little slow to respond the last few weeks. :(

So I've managed to reproduce the issue following Michael's
instructions and your analysis, Thomas, looks right!

Though I'm a bit confused on the suggested solution:

Ok, so here we're incrementing the wakeup counter for each
alarmtimer_fired call.

And here we're bailing on alarmtimer_suspend if an alarmtimer_fired
happened recently.  Still looks okish.

But here, we're setting the alarmtimer_wakeup count to zero if we get
PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE or  PM_POST_HIBERNATION notifications?
And Michael noted we need to add  PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE and
PM_POST_SUSPEND there for this to seemingly work.

This zeroing out the counter here feels a little sloppy, as it seems
nothing prevents the notifier from racing with the other added logic.

If the issue is that when we're expiring timers in alarmtimer_fire(),
a suspend event may come in midway after the alarmtimer_dequeue(),
while the timer is running but before the alarmtimer_enqueue(),
causing recurring timers to not be re-armed, it seems we probably
should do the accounting fully in alarmtimer_fire(), doing an
atomic_dec(&alarmtimer_wakeup) at the end of that function.  That way
we avoid suspending while running an alarmtimer, so the recurring
timers will always be back on the timer list when we do suspend.

This sort of has a risk that if there's timers that run for too long,
you'd prevent suspend for that period, but we already avoid suspending
if there's a alarmtimer within two seconds in the future, so having
alarmtimers recur quickly is inherently going to prevent you from
suspending.

I'll send out a reworked patch here in a moment after I validate it as working.

thanks

Ah. Scratch that. I was testing with my rework of the patch and still
seeing trouble w/ Michael's reproducer.

My apologies, as I was mistaken that the race is in alarmtimer_fired
between the dequeue and the enqueue. It's between the
alarmtimer_fired() and the  posixtimer_rearm() logic, where a suspend
inbetween could prevent the timer from being rearmed.

This is messier as we need to allow the timer to fire and re-arm
itself and block suspend happening inbetween, and since the re-arming
logic is happening at the posixtimers abstraction level above the
alarmtimers, its difficult to totally prevent that.

So Thomas's notifier method of zeroing at the begining of suspend and
tracking any wakeups after that point makes more sense now. It still
feels a bit messy, but I'm not sure there's something better.

My only thought is this feels a little bit like its mirroring what the
pm_wakeup_event() logic is supposed to do. Should we be adding a
pm_wakeup_event() to alarmtimer_fired() to try to prevent suspend from
occuring for 500ms or so after an alarmtimer has fired so there is
enough time for it to be re-armed if needed?

Yup. I missed those when sending out that hack.

I'm not enthused about it either.

The question is whether this can be called unconditionally and how that
interacts with the suspend logic. Rafael?

That said, it does work. :) In my testing, your approach has been
reliable, so it has that going for it.

I took a brief stab at this, and one thing is the test needs to use
the /sys/power/wakeup_count dance before suspending.
However, I still had some cases where the recurring alarmtimer got
lost, so I need to dig a bit more to understand what was going wrong
there.

In the meantime, I'm ok with Thomas' approach, but we probably need
some comment documentation that suggests it might be reworked in a
cleaner way?

For now I have pushed to our internal devices this commit message

time: alarmtimer: Fix wakeup lost between freeze(alarmtask) and
alarmtimer_suspend()

    An alarm timer can happen in between a freeze and alarmtimer_suspend as
    below output:

    > [   89.674127] PM: suspend entry (deep)
    > [   89.714916] Filesystems sync: 0.037 seconds

    > [   89.740680] Freezing user space processes completed (elapsed

    User space tasks are frozen now.

    > [   89.756831] alarmtimer_dequeue: called <---- HERE

    Here fires the underlying hrtimer before devices are suspended, so the
    sig_sendqueue() cannot wake up the task because task->state ==
    TASK_FROZEN, which means the signal won't be handled and the timer won't
    be rearmed until the task is thawed.

    The alarmtimer_suspend() path won't see a pending timer anymore because
    it is dequeued.

    So precisely the time between freeze(alarmtask) and alarmtimer_suspend()
    is a gaping hole which guarantees lost wakeups.

    That hole has been there forever.

    The old horrible freezer hackery was supposed to plug that
    hole, but that gem is not solving anything as far as I understand what
    it is doing.

This appears to be still somewhat racy, because the notifier can run

The pm_wakeup_event() doesn't need the timeout, but it is conditional
on using /sys/power/wakeup_count.

However, in any case it doesn't guarantee that the target user of the
alarm timer will be able to handle the signal on time AFAICS.  To my
eyes, it is entirely possible for alarmtimer_fired() to run before
/sys/power/wakeup_count is written to while the signal will be sent to
the given task later, in which case there is no guarantee that the
task will not be frozen in the meantime.

Moreover, I'm wondering if all alarm timers should always wake up the
system from sleep or abort suspends in progress?  If the answer is
"no" here, it changes the problem at hand quite a bit.

I actually should have said "read from" instead of "written to" here, sorry.

That's correct.

I'm interested in that too, so if you have any conclusions, please let me know.

Well, in theory, the PM notifier can run in parallel with
alarmtimer_fired() right after it has incremented the atomic var,
can't it?

Indeed it is. Let me think more about this.

All of this is inherently racy as there is zero feedback whether the
event has been consumed or not. Making this feedback based is not
necessarily trivial, but let me stare into that.

Can we add a function like pm_get_state()?

So can we mark the suspend window using some state?
