Hi,

I was testing stress-ng on an ARM64 box and I found that it can be killed instantaneously with a --hrtimers 1 test:
https://github.com/ColinIanKing/stress-ng/blob/master/stress-hrtimers.c
The console shell locks up immediately after starting the process, and I get this rcu_preempt splat after 21 seconds,
letting me know that the grace-periods kernel thread could not run:

# stress-ng --hrtimers 1
stress-ng: info:  [320] defaulting to a 86400 second (1 day, 0.00 secs) run per stressor

Looks like there's another issue in fsl8250_handle_irq, but I think that's unrelated so I'll ignore it.
So it looks like CPU 1 detects that the rcu_preempt kthread isn't scheduled, despite the fact that all
quiescent states were seen. So it looks like there is no RCU usage bug in here, but a legitimate CPU
starvation issue as far as I can see.

I have some noob questions:

- Is my system (hardware, drivers, kernel config) misconfigured? This can be reproduced at least on the
  NXP LS1028A running today's master branch with just the arm64 defconfig. On other hardware however
  (NXP T1040 PowerPC), RT throttling kicks in faster and the system doesn't hang (more below).

- What is the expected behavior of a system to this hrtimer test? Intuitively I would say the kenel
  shouldn't hang, but I don't exactly know what are the mechanisms to avoid that. Below are 2 things I tried.

- I tried to enable CONFIG_RCU_BOOST and had limited success. I could get rid of the RCU stall messages
  but the system would still hang after a longer while. When it hanged, it didn't even respond to ping
  from the outside, no shell, only magic sysrq could restart the kernel.

- I read a little bit of the "Limiting the CPU usage of real-time and deadline processes" chapter from
  man 7 sched. Is this what I should be doing? My /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_period_us and
  /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us are set to their default values (RT period 1 second, RT runtime
  .95 seconds), why isn't that enough? If I reduce the RT runtime to .8 seconds while keeping the period
  at 1 second, RT throttling (finally!) kicks in and the system does not die.
  The RCU stall warning does keep, however, getting printed continuously.

That agrees with my interpretation of the stall warning message.

On the rest, I must defer to others.

Thanks, always good to have a confirmation from you!
FWIW, the system has survived an overnight run with
sched_rt_runtime_us set to 80%, I don't know if there's more to it.

interesting. Just tested this on an ARM64 box with v5.6-rt and the
stress-ng hrtimer test works fine. No lockups, cyclictest results are
looking good. So maybe this is v5.7 related.

This is not actually v5.7 related. I could also reproduce it on a
downstream 5.4 kernel which is how I originally saw it.

Just out of curiosity, what and how many CPU cores does your ARM64 box
have, and what frequency are you running them at?
Mine is a dual-core A72 machine running at 1500 MHz.

Thanks,

That particular machine has a dual core Cortex A53 running at 1GHz.

Ok, I just noticed that you said "v5.6*-rt*".
So I re-tested that 5.4 downstream kernel again that hanged before,
just applied the -rt1 patchset on top. And it's actually working fine
now, no hangs, no RCU stalls, no need to reduce sched_rt_runtime_us.
So maybe it's something related to the config?

Thanks,
-Vladimir

Hi, Kurt,

May I know whether you used "root" user to run stress-ng? using "root" user will change the scheduler to be "SCHED_RR", so would you please share test result with root and non-root users? Thanks. 

Best Regards,
Jiafei.

Performed the test now as root and non-root user. Same result: No 
problem.
