* kthread: rename probe_kthread_data() to kthread_probe_data()Petr Mladek2016-10-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "kthread: Kthread worker API improvements" The intention of this patchset is to make it easier to manipulate and maintain kthreads. Especially, I want to replace all the custom main cycles with a generic one. Also I want to make the kthreads sleep in a consistent state in a common place when there is no work. This patch (of 11): A good practice is to prefix the names of functions by the name of the subsystem. This patch fixes the name of probe_kthread_data(). The other wrong functions names are part of the kthread worker API and will be fixed separately.

* | workqueue: Fix setting affinity of unbound worker threadsPeter Zijlstra2016-06-161-5/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With commit e9d867a67fd03ccc ("sched: Allow per-cpu kernel threads to run on online && !active"), __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() expects that only strict per-cpu kernel threads can have affinity to an online CPU which is not yet active. This assumption is currently broken in the CPU_ONLINE notification handler for the workqueues where restore_unbound_workers_cpumask() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() when the first cpu in the unbound worker's pool->attr->cpumask comes online. Since set_cpus_allowed_ptr() is called with pool->attr->cpumask in which only one CPU is online which is not yet active, we get the following WARN_ON during an CPU online operation. ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 40 PID: 248 at kernel/sched/core.c:1166 __set_cpus_allowed_ptr+0x228/0x2e0 Modules linked in: CPU: 40 PID: 248 Comm: cpuhp/40 Not tainted 4.6.0-autotest+ #4 <..snip..> Call Trace: [c000000f273ff920] [c00000000010493c] __set_cpus_allowed_ptr+0x2cc/0x2e0 (unreliable) [c000000f273ffac0] [c0000000000ed4b0] workqueue_cpu_up_callback+0x2c0/0x470 [c000000f273ffb70] [c0000000000f5c58] notifier_call_chain+0x98/0x100 [c000000f273ffbc0] [c0000000000c5ed0] __cpu_notify+0x70/0xe0 [c000000f273ffc00] [c0000000000c6028] notify_online+0x38/0x50 [c000000f273ffc30] [c0000000000c5214] cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x84/0x250 [c000000f273ffc90] [c0000000000c562c] cpuhp_up_callbacks+0x5c/0x120 [c000000f273ffce0] [c0000000000c64d4] cpuhp_thread_fun+0x184/0x1c0 [c000000f273ffd20] [c0000000000fa050] smpboot_thread_fn+0x290/0x2a0 [c000000f273ffd80] [c0000000000f45b0] kthread+0x110/0x130 [c000000f273ffe30] [c000000000009570] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x6c ---[ end trace 00f1456578b2a3b2 ]--- This patch fixes this by limiting the mask to the intersection of the pool affinity and online CPUs.

* debugobjects: insulate non-fixup logic related to static obj from fixup ↵Du, Changbin2016-05-191-34/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | callbacks When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the activation is illegal. In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core. Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks. To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke fixup callback. This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test with all debugobjects supports enabled. At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function stub_timer.

One which handles | UP/DOWN_FAILED/ONLINE and one which handles DOWN_PREPARE. | | Now look at the priorities of those callbacks: | | CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE_UP = 5 | CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE_DOWN = -5 | | So the call order on DOWN_PREPARE is: | | CB 1 | CB ... | CB workqueue_up() -> Ignores DOWN_PREPARE | CB ... | CB X ---> Fails | | So we call up to CB X with DOWN_FAILED | | CB 1 | CB ... | CB workqueue_up() -> Handles DOWN_FAILED | CB ... | CB X-1 | | So the problem is that the workqueue stuff handles DOWN_FAILED in the up | callback, while it should do it in the down callback. Which is not a good idea | either because it wants to be called early on rollback... | | Brilliant stuff, isn't it? The hotplug rework will solve this problem because | the callbacks become symetric, but for the existing mess, we need some | workaround in the workqueue code. The boot CPU handles housekeeping duty(unbound timers, workqueues, timekeeping, ...) on behalf of full dynticks CPUs. It must remain online when nohz full is enabled. There is a priority set to every notifier_blocks: workqueue_cpu_up > tick_nohz_cpu_down > workqueue_cpu_down So tick_nohz_cpu_down callback failed when down prepare cpu 0, and notifier_blocks behind tick_nohz_cpu_down will not be called any more, which leads to workers are actually not unbound. Then hotplug state machine will fallback to undo and online cpu 0 again. Workers will be rebound unconditionally even if they are not unbound and trigger the warning in this progress. This patch fix it by catching !DISASSOCIATED to avoid rebind bound workers.

AFAICS, this dates back to pre-git era and has quite likely been there from the time workqueue was first introduced. A work item uses its PENDING bit to synchronize multiple queuers. Anyone who wins the PENDING bit owns the pending state of the work item. Whether a queuer wins or loses the race, one thing should be guaranteed - there will soon be at least one execution of the work item - where "after" means that the execution instance would be able to see all the changes that the queuer has made prior to the queueing attempt. Unfortunately, we were missing a smp_mb() after clearing PENDING for execution, so nothing guaranteed visibility of the changes that a queueing loser has made, which manifested as a reproducible blk-mq stall. Lots of kudos to Roman for debugging the problem. The patch for -stable is the minimal one. For v3.7, Peter is working on a patch to make the code path slightly more efficient and less fragile" * 'for-4.6-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: fix ghost PENDING flag while doing MQ IO

If from_schedule is true, that means that finally blk_mq_insert_requests() offloads execution of __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() and uses kblockd workqueue, i.e. it calls kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on(). That means, that we race with another CPU, which is about to execute __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() work. Further debugging shows the following traces from different CPUs: CPU#0 CPU#1 ---------------------------------- ------------------------------- reqeust A inserted STORE hctx->ctx_map[0] bit marked kblockd_schedule...() returns 1 <schedule to kblockd workqueue> request B inserted STORE hctx->ctx_map[1] bit marked kblockd_schedule...() returns 0 *** WORK PENDING bit is cleared *** flush_busy_ctxs() is executed, but bit 1, set by CPU#1, is not observed As a result request B pended forever. This behaviour can be explained by speculative LOAD of hctx->ctx_map on CPU#0, which is reordered with clear of PENDING bit and executed _before_ actual STORE of bit 1 on CPU#1. The proper fix is an explicit full barrier <mfence>, which guarantees that clear of PENDING bit is to be executed before all possible speculative LOADS or STORES inside actual work function.

* workqueue: handle NUMA_NO_NODE for unbound pool_workqueue lookupTejun Heo2016-02-101-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When looking up the pool_workqueue to use for an unbound workqueue, workqueue assumes that the target CPU is always bound to a valid NUMA node. However, currently, when a CPU goes offline, the mapping is destroyed and cpu_to_node() returns NUMA_NO_NODE. This has always been broken but hasn't triggered often enough before 874bbfe600a6 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu"). After the commit, workqueue forcifully assigns the local CPU for delayed work items without explicit target CPU to fix a different issue. This widens the window where CPU can go offline while a delayed work item is pending causing delayed work items dispatched with target CPU set to an already offlined CPU. The resulting NUMA_NO_NODE mapping makes workqueue try to queue the work item on a NULL pool_workqueue and thus crash. While 874bbfe600a6 has been reverted for a different reason making the bug less visible again, it can still happen. Fix it by mapping NUMA_NO_NODE to the default pool_workqueue from unbound_pwq_by_node(). This is a temporary workaround. The long term solution is keeping CPU -> NODE mapping stable across CPU off/online cycles which is being worked on.

* workqueue: implement "workqueue.debug_force_rr_cpu" debug featureTejun Heo2016-02-091-2/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Workqueue used to guarantee local execution for work items queued without explicit target CPU. The guarantee is gone now which can break some usages in subtle ways. To flush out those cases, this patch implements a debug feature which forces round-robin CPU selection for all such work items. The debug feature defaults to off and can be enabled with a kernel parameter. The default can be flipped with a debug config option. If you hit this commit during bisection, please refer to 041bd12e272c ("Revert "workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu"") for more information and ping me.

* Revert "workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu"Tejun Heo2016-02-091-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 874bbfe600a660cba9c776b3957b1ce393151b76. Workqueue used to implicity guarantee that work items queued without explicit CPU specified are put on the local CPU. Recent changes in timer broke the guarantee and led to vmstat breakage which was fixed by 176bed1de5bf ("vmstat: explicitly schedule per-cpu work on the CPU we need it to run on"). vmstat is the most likely to expose the issue and it's quite possible that there are other similar problems which are a lot more difficult to trigger. As a preventive measure, 874bbfe600a6 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu") was applied to restore the local CPU guarnatee. Unfortunately, the change exposed a bug in timer code which got fixed by 22b886dd1018 ("timers: Use proper base migration in add_timer_on()"). Due to code restructuring, the commit couldn't be backported beyond certain point and stable kernels which only had 874bbfe600a6 started crashing. The local CPU guarantee was accidental more than anything else and we want to get rid of it anyway. As, with the vmstat case fixed, 874bbfe600a6 is causing more problems than it's fixing, it has been decided to take the chance and officially break the guarantee by reverting the commit. A debug feature will be added to force foreign CPU assignment to expose cases relying on the guarantee and fixes for the individual cases will be backported to stable as necessary.

This assumes that workqueues marked with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM sit in memory reclaim path and making it depend on something which may need more memory to make forward progress can lead to deadlocks. Unfortunately, workqueues created with the legacy create*_workqueue() interface always have WQ_MEM_RECLAIM regardless of whether they are depended upon memory reclaim or not.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Workqueue stalls can happen from a variety of usage bugs such as missing WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag or concurrency managed work item indefinitely staying RUNNING. These stalls can be extremely difficult to hunt down because the usual warning mechanisms can't detect workqueue stalls and the internal state is pretty opaque.

It periodically monitors all worker_pools periodically and, if any pool failed to make forward progress longer than the threshold duration, triggers warning and dumps workqueue state as follows.

The problem is timer can be migrated with NO_HZ. __queue_work() queues work in timer handler, which could run in a different cpu other than where the delayed work is scheduled. The end result is the delayed work runs in different cpu. The patch makes __queue_delayed_work records local cpu earlier. Where the timer runs doesn't change where the work runs with the change.

Unfortunately, it directly calls flush_workqueue() which is a GPL function. This has the effect of changing the licensing requirement for this function and makes it unavailable to non GPL modules.

So we simply remove the mutex_lock(&wq->mutex). Without the dependence on the the mutex_lock(&wq->mutex), the test of wq->unbound_attrs->no_numa can also be moved upward.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current wq_pool_mutex doesn't proctect the attrs-installation, it results that ->unbound_attrs, ->numa_pwq_tbl[] and ->dfl_pwq can only be accessed under wq->mutex and causes some inconveniences. Example, wq_update_unbound_numa() has to acquire wq->mutex before fetching the wq->unbound_attrs->no_numa and the old_pwq. attrs-installation is a short operation, so this change will no cause any latency for other operations which also acquire the wq_pool_mutex. The only unprotected attrs-installation code is in apply_workqueue_attrs(), so this patch touches code less than comments. It is also a preparation patch for next several patches which read wq->unbound_attrs, wq->numa_pwq_tbl[] and wq->dfl_pwq with only wq_pool_mutex held.

This is performed by traversing the entire workqueue list and calling apply_wqattrs_prepare() on the unbound workqueues with the new low level mask. Only after all the preparation are done, we commit them all together. Ordered workqueues are ignored from the low level unbound workqueue cpumask, it will be handled in near future. All the (default & per-node) pwqs are mandatorily controlled by the low level cpumask. If the user configured cpumask doesn't overlap with the low level cpumask, the low level cpumask will be used for the wq instead. The comment of wq_calc_node_cpumask() is updated and explicitly requires that its first argument should be the attrs of the default pwq. The default wq_unbound_cpumask is cpu_possible_mask. The workqueue subsystem doesn't know its best default value, let the system manager or the other subsystem set it when needed. Changed from V8: merge the calculating code for the attrs of the default pwq together. minor change the code&comments for saving the user configured attrs. remove unnecessary list_del(). minor update the comment of wq_calc_node_cpumask(). update the comment of workqueue_set_unbound_cpumask(); Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Kevin Hilman <khilman@linaro.org> Cc: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <bitbucket@online.de> Cc: Paul E.

This cpumask is controlled through a file at the root of the workqueue sysfs directory. It works on a lower-level than the per WQ_SYSFS workqueues cpumask files such that the effective cpumask applied for a given unbound workqueue is the intersection of /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/$WORKQUEUE/cpumask and the new /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/cpumask file.

* | workqueue: split apply_workqueue_attrs() into 3 stagesLai Jiangshan2015-04-271-84/+115
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current apply_workqueue_attrs() includes pwqs-allocation and pwqs-installation, so when we batch multiple apply_workqueue_attrs()s as a transaction, we can't ensure the transaction must succeed or fail as a complete unit. To solve this, we split apply_workqueue_attrs() into three stages. The first stage does the preparation: allocation memory, pwqs. The second stage does the attrs-installaion and pwqs-installation. The third stage frees the allocated memory and (old or unused) pwqs. As the result, batching multiple apply_workqueue_attrs()s can succeed or fail as a complete unit: 1) batch do all the first stage for all the workqueues 2) only commit all when all the above succeed. This patch is a preparation for the next patch ("Allow modifying low level unbound workqueue cpumask") which will do a multiple apply_workqueue_attrs(). The patch doesn't have functionality changed except two minor adjustment: 1) free_unbound_pwq() for the error path is removed, we use the heavier version put_pwq_unlocked() instead since the error path is rare. this adjustment simplifies the code. 2) the memory-allocation is also moved into wq_pool_mutex. this is needed to avoid to do the further splitting. tj: minor updates to comments.
