And by the time we try to claim a work, if it is already executing concurrently on another CPU, we want to succeed the claiming and queue the work again because the other CPU may have missed the data we wanted to handle in our work if it's about to complete there. This scenario is summarized below: CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- (flags = 0) cmpxchg(flags, 0, IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (flags = 3) [...] xchg(flags, IRQ_WORK_BUSY) (flags = 2) func() if (flags & IRQ_WORK_PENDING) (not true) cmpxchg(flags, flags, IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (flags = 3) [...] cmpxchg(flags, IRQ_WORK_BUSY, 0); (fail, pending on CPU 2) This state machine is synchronized using [cmp]xchg() on the flags. As such, the early IRQ_WORK_PENDING check in CPU 2 above is racy. By the time we check it, we may be dealing with a stale value because we aren't using an atomic accessor. As a result, CPU 2 may "see" that the work is still pending on another CPU while it may be actually completing the work function exection already, leaving our data unprocessed. To fix this, we start by speculating about the value we wish to be in the work->flags but we only make any conclusion after the value returned by the cmpxchg() call that either claims the work or let the current owner handle the pending work for us.

Once this flag value is set, the work enters a claimable state again. So if we have specific data to compute in our work, we ensure it's either handled by another CPU or locally by enqueuing the work again. This state machine is guanranteed by atomic operations on the flags. So when we set IRQ_WORK_BUSY without using an xchg-like operation, we break this guarantee as in the following summarized scenario: CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- (flags = 0) old_flags = flags; (flags = 0) cmpxchg(flags, old_flags, old_flags | IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (flags = 3) [...] flags = IRQ_WORK_BUSY (flags = 2) func() (sees flags = 3) cmpxchg(flags, old_flags, old_flags | IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (give up) cmpxchg(flags, 2, 0); (flags = 0) CPU 1 claims a work and executes it, so it sets IRQ_WORK_BUSY and the work is again in a claimable state. Now CPU 2 has new data to process and try to claim that work but it may see a stale value of the flags and think the work is still pending somewhere that will handle our data. This is because CPU 1 doesn't set IRQ_WORK_BUSY atomically. As a result, the data expected to be handle by CPU 2 won't get handled. To fix this, use xchg() to set IRQ_WORK_BUSY, this way we ensure the CPU 2 will see the correct value with cmpxchg() using the expected ordering.

Remove the call and let the handling code run even for an interrupt where only a single action is registered. That matches the goal of the above commit and avoids the deadlock. Document the confusing action = desc->action reload in the handling loop while at it.

This was required due to the use of synchronize_sched() in the old implemenation's synchronize_srcu(). However, the new implementation does not rely on synchronize_sched(), so it in turn does not require the load of sp->completed and the ->c[] counter to be in a single preempt-disabled region of code. This commit therefore moves the sp->completed access outside of the preempt-disabled region and applies ACCESS_ONCE(). The resulting code is almost as the same as before, but it removes the now-misleading rcu_dereference_index_check() call. Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This approach has worked quite well, but with the advent of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ, we cannot count on a given CPU seeing all the grace-period completions. When a CPU misses a grace-period completion that occurs while it is in dyntick-idle mode, this will delay invocation of its callbacks. In addition, acceleration of callbacks (when RCU realizes that a given callback need only wait until the end of the next grace period, rather than having to wait for a partial grace period followed by a full grace period) must be carried out extremely carefully. Insufficient acceleration will result in unnecessarily long grace-period latencies, while excessive acceleration will result in premature callback invocation. Changes that involve this tradeoff are therefore among the most nerve-wracking changes to RCU. This commit therefore explicitly tags groups of callbacks with the number of the grace period that they are waiting for. This means that callback-advancement and callback-acceleration functions are idempotent, so that excessive acceleration will merely waste a few CPU cycles. This also allows a CPU to take full advantage of any grace periods that have elapsed while it has been in dyntick-idle mode. It should also enable simulataneous simplifications to and optimizations of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

It gives this warning on some RCU initialization code. Because this is far from any fastpath, add an explicit check for array bounds and panic if so. This gives the compiler enough information to figure out that the array index is never out of bounds. However, if a similar false positive occurs on a fastpath, it will probably be necessary to tell the compiler to keep its array-index anxieties to itself. ;-) Markus Trippelsdorf <markus@trippelsdorf.de> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This means when balance_runtime() is run for a given rt_rq that rt_rq may be in a different rd than the current processor. Thus if we use smp_processor_id() to get rd in do_balance_runtime() we may borrow runtime from a rt_rq that is not part of our rd. This changes do_balance_runtime to get the rd from the passed in rt_rq ensuring that we borrow runtime only from the correct rd for the given rt_rq. This fixes a BUG at kernel/sched/rt.c:687! in __disable_runtime when we try reclaim runtime lent to other rt_rq but runtime has been lent to a rt_rq in another rd.

So if group leader is initialy sw event, we move all the events under hw context. The move is done for each event by removing it from its context and adding it back into proper one. As a part of the removal the event is automatically disabled, which is not what we want at this stage of creating groups. The fix is to initialize event state after removal from sw context.

(1) there is an extra "s" in the documented name which is not in the code, and (2) since it uses module_param, it really is expecting a prefix, akin to "rcutree.fanout_leaf" and the prefix isn't documented. However, there are several reasons why we might not want to simply fix the typo and add the prefix: 1) we'd end up with rcutree.rcu_nocb_poll, and rather probably make a change to rcutree.nocb_poll 2) if we did #1, then the prefix wouldn't be consistent with the rcu_nocbs=<cpumap> parameter (i.e. one with, one without prefix) 3) the use of module_param in a header file is less than desired, since it isn't immediately obvious that it will get processed via rcutree.c and get the prefix from that (although use of module_param_named() could clarify that.) 4) the implied export of /sys/module/rcutree/parameters/rcu_nocb_poll data to userspace via module_param() doesn't really buy us anything, as it is read-only and we can tell if it is enabled already without it, since there is a printk at early boot telling us so. In light of all that, just change it from a module_param() to an early_setup() call, and worry about adding it to /sys later on if we decide to allow a dynamic setting of it. Also change the variable to be tagged as read_mostly, since it will only ever be fiddled with at most, once at boot.

While pending async jobs will be queued and dispatched for execution in the same order, nothing guarantees they'll enter "1) move self to the running queue" of async_run_entry_fn() in the same order. Before the conversion, async implemented its own worker pool. An async worker, upon being woken up, fetches the first item from the pending list, which kept the executing lists sorted. The conversion to workqueue was done by adding work_struct to each async_entry and async just schedules the work item. The queueing and dispatching of such work items are still in order but now each worker thread is associated with a specific async_entry and moves that specific async_entry to the executing list. So, depending on which worker reaches that point earlier, which is non-deterministic, we may end up moving an async_entry with larger cookie before one with smaller one. This broke __lowest_in_progress(). running->domain may not be properly sorted and is not guaranteed to contain lower cookies than pending list when not empty. Fix it by ensuring sort-inserting to the running list and always looking at both pending and running when trying to determine the lowest cookie. Over time, the async synchronization implementation became quite messy. We better restructure it such that each async_entry is linked to two lists - one global and one per domain - and not move it when execution starts. There's no reason to distinguish pending and running. They behave the same for synchronization purposes.

That is, if a probe is placed on a function mcount/nop location, and the arch supports it, instead of adding a breakpoint, kprobes will register a function callback as that is much more efficient. The function tracer requires to update modules before they run, and uses the module notifier to do so. But if something else in the module notifiers registers a kprobe at one of these locations, before ftrace can get to it, then the system could fail. The function tracer must be initialized early, otherwise module notifiers that probe will only work by chance." * tag 'trace-3.8-rc4-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace: Be first to run code modification on modules

But this happened before ftrace could have touched the code. As ftrace didn't run yet, the kprobe system had no idea it was a ftrace point and simply added a breakpoint to the code (0xcc in the cc:bb:d2:4b:e1). Then when ftrace went to modify the location from a call to mcount/fentry into a nop, it didn't see a call op, but instead it saw the breakpoint op and not knowing what to do with it, ftrace shut itself down. The solution is to simply give the ftrace module notifier the max priority. This should have been done regardless, as the core code ftrace modification also happens very early on in boot up. This makes the module modification closer to core modification.

However a killed tracee can return from ptrace_stop() to the low-level asm code and do RESTORE_REST, this means that debugger can actually read/modify the kernel stack until the tracee does SAVE_REST again. set_task_blockstep() can race with SIGKILL too and in some sense this race is even worse, the very fact the tracee can be woken up breaks the logic. As Linus suggested we can clear TASK_WAKEKILL around the arch_ptrace() call, this ensures that nobody can ever wakeup the tracee while the debugger looks at it. Not only this fixes the mentioned problems, we can do some cleanups/simplifications in arch_ptrace() paths. Probably ptrace_unfreeze_traced() needs more callers, for example it makes sense to make the tracee killable for oom-killer before access_process_vm(). While at it, add the comment into may_ptrace_stop() to explain why ptrace_stop() still can't rely on SIGKILL and signal_pending_state().

None of ptrace/jctl callers actually want to wakeup a TASK_WAKEKILL task, but they can't specify the necessary mask. Turn signal_wake_up() into signal_wake_up_state(state), reintroduce signal_wake_up() as a trivial helper, and add ptrace_signal_wake_up() which adds __TASK_TRACED.
