Subject: [PATCH v2] sched/core: fix illegal RCU from offline CPUs
Date: Mon, 13 Jan 2020 14:03:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200113190331.12788-1-cai@lca.pw> (raw)

In the CPU-offline process, it calls mmdrop() after idle entry and the
subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead(). Once execution passes the
call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring the CPU, which results in
lockdep complaints when mmdrop() uses RCU from either memcg or
debugobjects, so it by scheduling mmdrop() on another online CPU.

According to the commit a79e53d85683 ("x86/mm: Fix pgd_lock deadlock"),
mmdrop() is not interrupt-safe, and called from
smp_call_function_single() could end up running mmdrop() from the IPI
interrupt handler.

 Call Trace:
  mmdrop+0x58/0x80
  flush_smp_call_function_queue+0x128/0x2e0
  smp_ipi_demux_relaxed+0x84/0xf0

  cpu_startup_entry+0x3c/0x40
  start_secondary+0x7a8/0xa80
  start_secondary_resume+0x10/0x14

Therefore, use mmdrop_async() instead to run mmdrop() from a process
context similar to the commit 7283094ec3db ("kernel, oom: fix potential
pgd_lock deadlock from __mmdrop").
