The 3.x RT series removed the split softirq implementation in favour
of pushing softirq processing into the context of the thread which
raised it. Though this prevents us from handling the various softirqs
at different priorities. Now instead of reintroducing the split
softirq threads we split the locks which serialize the softirq
processing.
If a softirq is raised in context of a thread, then the softirq is
noted on a per thread field, if the thread is in a bh disabled
region. If the softirq is raised from hard interrupt context, then the
bit is set in the flag field of ksoftirqd and ksoftirqd is invoked.
When a thread leaves a bh disabled region, then it tries to execute
the softirqs which have been raised in its own context. It acquires
the per softirq / per cpu lock for the softirq and then checks,
whether the softirq is still pending in the per cpu
local_softirq_pending() field. If yes, it runs the softirq. If no,
then some other task executed it already. This allows for zero config
softirq elevation in the context of user space tasks or interrupt
threads.

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.

If a task which is allowed to run only on CPU X puts CPU Y down then it
will be allowed on all CPUs but the on CPU Y after it comes back from
kernel. This patch ensures that we don't lose the initial setting unless
the CPU the task is running is going down.

If kthread is pinned to CPUx and CPUx is going down then we get into
trouble:
- first the unplug thread is created
- it will set itself to hp->unplug. As a result, every task that is
going to take a lock, has to leave the CPU.
- the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifier are started. The worker thread will
start a new process for the "high priority worker".
Now kthread would like to take a lock but since it can't leave the CPU
it will never complete its task.
We could fire the unplug thread after the notifier but then the cpu is
no longer marked "online" and the unplug thread will run on CPU0 which
was fixed before :)
So instead the unplug thread is started and kept waiting until the
notfier complete their work.

The patch:
cpu: Make hotplug.lock a "sleeping" spinlock on RT
Tasks can block on hotplug.lock in pin_current_cpu(), but their
state might be != RUNNING. So the mutex wakeup will set the state
unconditionally to RUNNING. That might cause spurious unexpected
wakeups. We could provide a state preserving mutex_lock() function,
but this is semantically backwards. So instead we convert the
hotplug.lock() to a spinlock for RT, which has the state preserving
semantics already.
Fixed a bug where the hotplug lock on PREEMPT_RT can be called after a
task set its state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and before it called
schedule. If the hotplug_lock used a mutex, and there was contention,
the current task's state would be turned to TASK_RUNNABLE and the
schedule call will not sleep. This caused unexpected results.
Although the patch had a description of the change, the code had no
comments about it. This causes confusion to those that review the code,
and as PREEMPT_RT is held in a quilt queue and not git, it's not as easy
to see why a change was made. Even if it was in git, the code should
still have a comment for something as subtle as this.
Document the rational for using a spinlock on PREEMPT_RT in the hotplug
lock code.

Bringing a CPU down is a pain with the PREEMPT_RT kernel because
tasks can be preempted in many more places than in non-RT. In
order to handle per_cpu variables, tasks may be pinned to a CPU
for a while, and even sleep. But these tasks need to be off the CPU
if that CPU is going down.
Several synchronization methods have been tried, but when stressed
they failed. This is a new approach.
A sync_tsk thread is still created and tasks may still block on a
lock when the CPU is going down, but how that works is a bit different.
When cpu_down() starts, it will create the sync_tsk and wait on it
to inform that current tasks that are pinned on the CPU are no longer
pinned. But new tasks that are about to be pinned will still be allowed
to do so at this time.
Then the notifiers are called. Several notifiers will bring down tasks
that will enter these locations. Some of these tasks will take locks
of other tasks that are on the CPU. If we don't let those other tasks
continue, but make them block until CPU down is done, the tasks that
the notifiers are waiting on will never complete as they are waiting
for the locks held by the tasks that are blocked.
Thus we still let the task pin the CPU until the notifiers are done.
After the notifiers run, we then make new tasks entering the pinned
CPU sections grab a mutex and wait. This mutex is now a per CPU mutex
in the hotplug_pcp descriptor.
To help things along, a new function in the scheduler code is created
called migrate_me(). This function will try to migrate the current task
off the CPU this is going down if possible. When the sync_tsk is created,
all tasks will then try to migrate off the CPU going down. There are
several cases that this wont work, but it helps in most cases.
After the notifiers are called and if a task can't migrate off but enters
the pin CPU sections, it will be forced to wait on the hotplug_pcp mutex
until the CPU down is complete. Then the scheduler will force the migration
anyway.
Also, I found that THREAD_BOUND need to also be accounted for in the
pinned CPU, and the migrate_disable no longer treats them special.
This helps fix issues with ksoftirqd and workqueue that unbind on CPU down.

Add a /sys/kernel entry to indicate that the kernel is a
realtime kernel.
Clark says that he needs this for udev rules, udev needs to evaluate
if its a PREEMPT_RT kernel a few thousand times and parsing uname
output is too slow or so.
Are there better solutions? Should it exist and return 0 on !-rt?

To work around this in the short term you can use this patch, in
addition to the clocksource watchdog patch that Thomas brewed up.
Comments are welcome of course. Ultimately the right solution is to
change separation between the console and the HW to have a polled mode
+ work queue so as not to introduce any kind of latency.
Thanks,

irq_work is processed in softirq context on -RT because we want to avoid
long latencies which might arise from processing lots of perf events.
The noHZ-full mode requires its callback to be called from real hardirq
context (commit 76c24fb ("nohz: New APIs to re-evaluate the tick on full
dynticks CPUs")). If it is called from a thread context we might get
wrong results for checks like "is_idle_task(current)".
This patch introduces a second list (hirq_work_list) which will be used
if irq_work_run() has been invoked from hardirq context and process only
work items marked with IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ.
This patch also removes arch_irq_work_raise() from sparc & powerpc like
it is already done for x86. Atleast for powerpc it is somehow
superfluous because it is called from the timer interrupt which should
invoke update_process_times().

The worker accounting for cpu bound workers is plugged into the core
scheduler code and the wakeup code. This is not a hard requirement and
can be avoided by keeping track of the state in the workqueue code
itself.
Keep track of the sleeping state in the worker itself and call the
notifier before entering the core scheduler. There might be false
positives when the task is woken between that call and actually
scheduling, but that's not really different from scheduling and being
woken immediately after switching away. There is also no harm from
updating nr_running when the task returns from scheduling instead of
accounting it in the wakeup code.

Apparently, the softirq demon and the ata_piix IRQ handler were waiting
for each other to finish ending up in a livelock. After the below patch
was applied, the system no longer crashes.

There is no need for sched_rcu. The undocumented reason why sched_rcu
is used is to avoid a few explicit rcu_read_lock()/unlock() pairs by
abusing the fact that sched_rcu reader side critical sections are also
protected by preempt or irq disabled regions.

We hit another bug that was caused by switching cpu_chill() from
msleep() to hrtimer_nanosleep().
This time it is a livelock. The problem is that hrtimer_nanosleep()
calls schedule with the state == TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. But these means
that if a signal is pending, the scheduler wont schedule, and will
simply change the current task state back to TASK_RUNNING. This
nullifies the whole point of cpu_chill() in the first place. That is,
if a task is spinning on a try_lock() and it preempted the owner of the
lock, if it has a signal pending, it will never give up the CPU to let
the owner of the lock run.
I made a static function __hrtimer_nanosleep() that takes a fifth
parameter "state", which determines the task state of that the
nanosleep() will be in. The normal hrtimer_nanosleep() will act the
same, but cpu_chill() will call the __hrtimer_nanosleep() directly with
the TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state.
cpu_chill() only cares that the first sleep happens, and does not care
about the state of the restart schedule (in hrtimer_nanosleep_restart).

Ulrich Obergfell pointed out that cpu_chill() calls msleep() which is woken
up by the ksoftirqd running the TIMER softirq. But as the cpu_chill() is
called from softirq context, it may block the ksoftirqd() from running, in
which case, it may never wake up the msleep() causing the deadlock.
I checked the vmcore, and irq/74-qla2xxx is stuck in the msleep() call,
running on CPU 8. The one ksoftirqd that is stuck, happens to be the one that
runs on CPU 8, and it is blocked on a lock held by irq/74-qla2xxx. As that
ksoftirqd is the one that will wake up irq/74-qla2xxx, and it happens to be
blocked on a lock that irq/74-qla2xxx holds, we have our deadlock.
The solution is not to convert the cpu_chill() back to a cpu_relax() as that
will re-create a possible live lock that the cpu_chill() fixed earlier, and may
also leave this bug open on other softirqs. The fix is to remove the
dependency on ksoftirqd from cpu_chill(). That is, instead of calling
msleep() that requires ksoftirqd to wake it up, use the
hrtimer_nanosleep() code that does the wakeup from hard irq context.
|Looks to be the lock of the block softirq. I don't have the core dump
|anymore, but from what I could tell the ksoftirqd was blocked on the
|block softirq lock, where the block softirq handler did a msleep
|(called by the qla2xxx interrupt handler).
|
|Looking at trigger_softirq() in block/blk-softirq.c, it can do a
|smp_callfunction() to another cpu to run the block softirq. If that
|happens to be the cpu where the qla2xx irq handler is doing the block
|softirq and is in a middle of a msleep(), I believe the ksoftirqd will
|try to run the softirq. If it does that, then BOOM, it's deadlocked
|because the ksoftirqd will never run the timer softirq either.
|I should have also stated that it was only one lock that was involved.
|But the lock owner was doing a msleep() that requires a wakeup by
|ksoftirqd to continue. If ksoftirqd happens to be blocked on a lock
|held by the msleep() caller, then you have your deadlock.
|
|It's best not to have any softirqs going to sleep requiring another
|softirq to wake it up. Note, if we ever require a timer softirq to do a
|cpu_chill() it will most definitely hit this deadlock.

Any callers to the function rcu_preempt_qs() must disable irqs in
order to protect the assignment to ->rcu_read_unlock_special. In
RT case, rcu_bh_qs() as the wrapper of rcu_preempt_qs() is called
in some scenarios where irq is enabled, like this path,
do_single_softirq()
|
+ local_irq_enable();
+ handle_softirq()
| |
| + rcu_bh_qs()
| |
| + rcu_preempt_qs()
|
+ local_irq_disable()
So here we'd better disable irq directly inside of rcu_bh_qs() to
fix this, otherwise the kernel may be freezable sometimes as
observed. And especially this way is also kind and safe for the
potential rcu_bh_qs() usage elsewhere in the future.

Implementing RCU-bh in terms of RCU-preempt makes the system vulnerable
to network-based denial-of-service attacks. This patch therefore
makes __do_softirq() invoke rcu_bh_qs(), but only when __do_softirq()
is running in ksoftirqd context. A wrapper layer in interposed so that
other calls to __do_softirq() avoid invoking rcu_bh_qs(). The underlying
function __do_softirq_common() does the actual work.
The reason that rcu_bh_qs() is bad in these non-ksoftirqd contexts is
that there might be a local_bh_enable() inside an RCU-preempt read-side
critical section. This local_bh_enable() can invoke __do_softirq()
directly, so if __do_softirq() were to invoke rcu_bh_qs() (which just
calls rcu_preempt_qs() in the PREEMPT_RT_FULL case), there would be
an illegal RCU-preempt quiescent state in the middle of an RCU-preempt
read-side critical section. Therefore, quiescent states can only happen
in cases where __do_softirq() is invoked directly from ksoftirqd.

The Linux kernel has long RCU-bh read-side critical sections that
intolerably increase scheduling latency under mainline's RCU-bh rules,
which include RCU-bh read-side critical sections being non-preemptible.
This patch therefore arranges for RCU-bh to be implemented in terms of
RCU-preempt for CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL=y.
This has the downside of defeating the purpose of RCU-bh, namely,
handling the case where the system is subjected to a network-based
denial-of-service attack that keeps at least one CPU doing full-time
softirq processing. This issue will be fixed by a later commit.
The current commit will need some work to make it appropriate for
mainline use, for example, it needs to be extended to cover Tiny RCU.

Because irq_exit() does:
void irq_exit(void)
{
account_system_vtime(current);
trace_hardirq_exit();
sub_preempt_count(IRQ_EXIT_OFFSET);
if (!in_interrupt() && local_softirq_pending())
invoke_softirq();
...
}
Which triggers a wakeup, which uses RCU, now if the interrupted task has
t->rcu_read_unlock_special set, the rcu usage from the wakeup will end
up in rcu_read_unlock_special(). rcu_read_unlock_special() will test
for in_irq(), which will fail as we just decremented preempt_count
with IRQ_EXIT_OFFSET, and in_sering_softirq(), which for
PREEMPT_RT_FULL reads:
int in_serving_softirq(void)
{
int res;
preempt_disable();
res = __get_cpu_var(local_softirq_runner) == current;
preempt_enable();
return res;
}
Which will thus also fail, resulting in the above wreckage.
The 'somewhat' ugly solution is to open-code the preempt_count() test
in rcu_read_unlock_special().
Also, we're not at all sure how ->rcu_read_unlock_special gets set
here... so this is very likely a bandaid and more thought is required.

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 "rt_spin_unlock_after_trylock_in_irq" 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.

It was previously discovered that some systems would hang on boot up
with a previous version of 3.12-rt. This was due to RCU using irq_work,
and RT defers the irq_work to a softirq. But if there's no active
timers, the softirq will not be raised, and RCU work will not get done,
causing the system to hang. The fix was to check that if there was no
active timers but irq_work to be done, then we should raise the softirq.
But this fix was not 100% correct. It left out the case that there were
active timers that were not expired yet. This would have the softirq
not get raised even if there was irq work to be done.
If there is irq_work to be done, then we must raise the timer softirq
regardless of if there is active timers or whether they are expired or
not. The softirq can handle those cases. But we can never ignore
irq_work.
As it is only PREEMPT_RT_FULL that requires irq_work to be done in the
softirq, we can pull out the check in the active_timers condition, and
make the code a bit cleaner by having the irq_work check separate, and
put the code in with the other #ifdef PREEMPT_RT. If there is irq_work
to be done, there's no need to check the active timers or if they are
expired. Just raise the time softirq and be done with it. Otherwise, we
can do the timer checks just like we do with non -rt.

[ Talking with Sebastian on IRC, it seems that doing the irq_work_run()
from the interrupt in -rt is a bad thing. Here we simply raise the
softirq if there's irq work to do. This too boots on my i7 ]
After trying hard to figure out why my i7 box was locking up with the
new active_timers code, that does not run the timer softirq if there
are no active timers, I took an extra look at the softirq handler and
noticed that it doesn't just run timer softirqs, it also runs irq work.
This was the bug that was locking up the system. It wasn't missing a
timer, it was missing irq work. By always doing the irq work callbacks,
the system boots fine. The missing irq work callback was the RCU's
sp_wakeup() function.
No need to check for defined(CONFIG_IRQ_WORK). When that's not set the
"irq_work_needs_cpu()" is a static inline that returns false.

well, that very same problem is in mainline if you add "threadirqs" to
the command line. But we can be smart about this. The untested patch
below should address that issue. If that works on mainline we can
adapt it for RT (needs a trylock(&base->lock) there).
Though it's not a full solution. It needs some thought versus the
softirq code of timers. Assume we have only one timer queued 1000
ticks into the future. So this change will cause the timer softirq not
to be called until that timer expires and then the timer softirq is
going to do 1000 loops until it catches up with jiffies. That's
anything but pretty ...
What worries me more is this one:
pert-5229 [003] d..h1.. 684.482618: softirq_raise: vec=9 [action=RCU]
The CPU has no callbacks as you shoved them over to cpu 0, so why is
the RCU softirq raised?
Thanks,
tglx

This fixes the following build error for the preempt-rt kernel.
make kernel/fork.o
CC kernel/fork.o
kernel/fork.c:90: error: section of tasklist_lock conflicts with previous declaration
make[2]: *** [kernel/fork.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [kernel/fork.o] Error 2
The rt kernel cache aligns the RWLOCK in DEFINE_RWLOCK by default.
The non-rt kernels explicitly cache align only the tasklist_lock in
kernel/fork.c
That can create a build conflict. This fixes the build problem by making the
non-rt kernels cache align RWLOCKs by default. The side effect is that
the other RWLOCKs are also cache aligned for non-rt.
This is a short term solution for rt only.
The longer term solution would be to push the cache aligned DEFINE_RWLOCK
to mainline. If there are objections, then we could create a
DEFINE_RWLOCK_CACHE_ALIGNED or something of that nature.

Bad return value in _mutex_lock_check_stamp - this problem only would show
up with 3.12.1 rt4 applied but CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL not enabled
currently it would be returning what ever vprintk_emit ended up with
(atleast on x86), which probably is not the intended behavior. Added a
return 0; as in the case with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL enabled.

pushdown of migrate_disable/enable from read_*lock* to the rt_read_*lock*
api level
general mapping to mutexes:
read_*lock*
`-> rt_read_*lock*
`-> __spin_lock (the sleeping spin locks)
`-> rt_mutex
The real read_lock* mapping:
read_lock_irqsave -.
read_lock_irq `-> rt_read_lock_irqsave()
`->read_lock ---------. \
read_lock_bh ------+ \
`--> rt_read_lock()
if (rt_mutex_owner(lock) != current){
`-> __rt_spin_lock()
rt_spin_lock_fastlock()
`->rt_mutex_cmpxchg()
migrate_disable()
}
rwlock->read_depth++;
read_trylock mapping:

if (rt_mutex_owner(lock) != current){

}
rwlock->read_depth++;
read_unlock* mapping:

read_unlock -----------+

if(--rwlock->read_depth==0){
`-> __rt_spin_unlock()
rt_spin_lock_fastunlock()
`-> rt_mutex_cmpxchg()
migrate_disable()
}
So calls to migrate_disable/enable() are better placed at the rt_read_*
level of lock/trylock/unlock as all of the read_*lock* API has this as a
common path. In the rt_read* API of lock/trylock/unlock the nesting level
is already being recorded in rwlock->read_depth, so we can push down the
migrate disable/enable to that level and condition it on the read_depth
going from 0 to 1 -> migrate_disable and 1 to 0 -> migrate_enable. This
eliminates the recursive calls that were needed when migrate_disable/enable
was done at the read_*lock* level.
The approach to read_*_bh also eliminates the concerns raised with the
regards to api inbalances (read_lock_bh -> read_unlock+local_bh_enable)

general mapping of write_*lock* to mutexes:
write_*lock*
`-> rt_write_*lock*

In exit_pi_state_list() we have the following locking construct:
spin_lock(&hb->lock);
raw_spin_lock_irq(&curr->pi_lock);
...
spin_unlock(&hb->lock);
In !RT this works, but on RT the migrate_enable() function which is
called from spin_unlock() sees atomic context due to the held pi_lock
and just decrements the migrate_disable_atomic counter of the
task. Now the next call to migrate_disable() sees the counter being
negative and issues a warning. That check should be in
migrate_enable() already.
Fix this by dropping pi_lock before unlocking hb->lock and reaquire
pi_lock after that again. This is safe as the loop code reevaluates
head again under the pi_lock.

Requeue with timeout causes a bug with PREEMPT_RT_FULL.
The bug comes from a timed out condition.
TASK 1 TASK 2
------ ------
futex_wait_requeue_pi()
futex_wait_queue_me()
<timed out>
double_lock_hb();
raw_spin_lock(pi_lock);
if (current->pi_blocked_on) {
} else {
current->pi_blocked_on = PI_WAKE_INPROGRESS;
run_spin_unlock(pi_lock);
spin_lock(hb->lock); <-- blocked!
plist_for_each_entry_safe(this) {
rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock();
task_blocks_on_rt_mutex();
BUG_ON(task->pi_blocked_on)!!!!
The BUG_ON() actually has a check for PI_WAKE_INPROGRESS, but the
problem is that, after TASK 1 sets PI_WAKE_INPROGRESS, it then tries to
grab the hb->lock, which it fails to do so. As the hb->lock is a mutex,
it will block and set the "pi_blocked_on" to the hb->lock.
When TASK 2 goes to requeue it, the check for PI_WAKE_INPROGESS fails
because the task1's pi_blocked_on is no longer set to that, but instead,
set to the hb->lock.
The fix:
When calling rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() a check is made to see
if the proxy tasks pi_blocked_on is set. If so, exit out early.
Otherwise set it to a new flag PI_REQUEUE_INPROGRESS, which notifies
the proxy task that it is being requeued, and will handle things
appropriately.
