* cpuset: fix possible deadlock in async_rebuild_sched_domainsMiao Xie2009-01-191-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Lockdep reported some possible circular locking info when we tested cpuset on NUMA/fake NUMA box. ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.29-rc1-00224-ga652504 #111 ------------------------------------------------------- bash/2968 is trying to acquire lock: (events){--..}, at: [<ffffffff8024c8cd>] flush_work+0x24/0xd8 but task is already holding lock: (cgroup_mutex){--..}, at: [<ffffffff8026ad1e>] cgroup_lock_live_group+0x12/0x29 which lock already depends on the new lock. ...... ------------------------------------------------------- Steps to reproduce: # mkdir /dev/cpuset # mount -t cpuset xxx /dev/cpuset # mkdir /dev/cpuset/0 # echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/cpus # echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/mems # echo 1 > /dev/cpuset/0/memory_migrate # cat /dev/zero > /dev/null & # echo $! > /dev/cpuset/0/tasks This is because async_rebuild_sched_domains has the following lock sequence: run_workqueue(async_rebuild_sched_domains) -> do_rebuild_sched_domains -> cgroup_lock But, attaching tasks when memory_migrate is set has following: cgroup_lock_live_group(cgroup_tasks_write) -> do_migrate_pages -> flush_work This patch fixes it by using a separate workqueue thread.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: cleanups, reduce stack usage This patch prepares for the next patch. When we convert cpuset.cpus_allowed to cpumask_var_t, (trialcs = *cs) no longer works.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | top cpuset I found a bug on my dual-cpu box. I created a sub cpuset in top cpuset and assign 1 to its cpus. And then we attach some tasks into this sub cpuset. After this, we offline CPU1. Now, the tasks in this new cpuset are moved into top cpuset automatically because there is no cpu in sub cpuset. Then we online CPU1, we find all the tasks which doesn't belong to top cpuset originally just run on CPU0. We fix this bug by setting task's cpu_allowed to cpu_possible_map when attaching it into top cpuset. This method needn't modify the current behavior of cpusets on CPU hotplug, and all of tasks in top cpuset use cpu_possible_map to initialize their cpu_allowed.

* cpuset: update top cpuset's mems after adding a nodeMiao Xie2008-11-191-3/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated. By reviewing the code, we found that the update function cpuset_track_online_nodes() was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes. It is wrong because N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use N_HIGH_MEMORY. So, We should invoke the update function after node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says. This patch fixes it. And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

* sched, cpuset: rework sched domains and CPU hotplug handling (v4)Max Krasnyansky2008-08-141-130/+182
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an updated version of my previous cpuset patch on top of the latest mainline git. The patch fixes CPU hotplug handling issues in the current cpusets code. Namely circular locking in rebuild_sched_domains() and unsafe access to the cpu_online_map in the cpuset cpu hotplug handler. This version includes changes suggested by Paul Jackson (naming, comments, style, etc). I also got rid of the separate workqueue thread because it is now safe to call get_online_cpus() from workqueue callbacks. Here are some more details: rebuild_sched_domains() is the only way to rebuild sched domains correctly based on the current cpuset settings. What this means is that we need to be able to call it from different contexts, like cpu hotplug for example. Also latest scheduler code in -tip now calls rebuild_sched_domains() directly from functions like arch_reinit_sched_domains(). In order to support that properly we need to rework cpuset locking rules to avoid circular dependencies, which is what this patch does. New lock nesting rules are explained in the comments. We can now safely call rebuild_sched_domains() from virtually any context. The only requirement is that it needs to be called under get_online_cpus(). This allows cpu hotplug handlers and the scheduler to call rebuild_sched_domains() directly. The rest of the cpuset code now offloads sched domains rebuilds to a workqueue (async_rebuild_sched_domains()). This version of the patch addresses comments from the previous review. I fixed all miss-formated comments and trailing spaces. I also factored out the code that builds domain masks and split up CPU and memory hotplug handling. This was needed to simplify locking, to avoid unsafe access to the cpu_online_map from mem hotplug handler, and in general to make things cleaner. The patch passes moderate testing (building kernel with -j 16, creating & removing domains and bringing cpus off/online at the same time) on the quad-core2 based machine. It passes lockdep checks, even with preemptable RCU enabled. This time I also tested in with suspend/resume path and everything is working as expected.

* cpusets: update task's cpus_allowed and mems_allowed after CPU/NODE ↵Miao Xie2008-07-251-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | offline/online The bug is that a task may run on the cpu/node which is not in its cpuset.cpus/ cpuset.mems. It can be reproduced by the following commands: ----------------------------------- # mkdir /dev/cpuset # mount -t cpuset xxx /dev/cpuset # mkdir /dev/cpuset/0 # echo 0-1 > /dev/cpuset/0/cpus # echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/mems # echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/0/tasks # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online ----------------------------------- There is only CPU0 in cpuset.cpus, but the task in this cpuset runs on both CPU0 and CPU1. It is because the task's cpu_allowed didn't get updated after we did CPU offline/online manipulation. Similar for mem_allowed. This patch fixes this bug expect for root cpuset. Because there is a problem about root cpuset, in that whether it is necessary to update all the tasks in root cpuset or not after cpu/node offline/online. If updating, some kernel threads which is bound into a specified cpu will be unbound. If not updating, there is a bug in root cpuset. This bug is also caused by offline/online manipulation. For example, there is a dual-cpu machine. we create a sub cpuset in root cpuset and assign 1 to its cpus. And then we attach some tasks into this sub cpuset. After this, we offline CPU1. Now, the tasks in this new cpuset are moved into root cpuset automatically because there is no cpu in sub cpuset. Then we online CPU1, we find all the tasks which doesn't belong to root cpuset originally just run on CPU0. Maybe we need to add a flag in the task_struct to mark which task can't be unbound?

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (take 2) This is based on Linus' idea of creating cpu_active_map that prevents scheduler load balancer from migrating tasks to the cpu that is going down. It allows us to simplify domain management code and avoid unecessary domain rebuilds during cpu hotplug event handling. Please ignore the cpusets part for now. It needs some more work in order to avoid crazy lock nesting. Although I did simplfy and unify domain reinitialization logic. We now simply call partition_sched_domains() in all the cases. This means that we're using exact same code paths as in cpusets case and hence the test below cover cpusets too. Cpuset changes to make rebuild_sched_domains() callable from various contexts are in the separate patch (right next after this one). This not only boots but also easily handles while true; do make clean; make -j 8; done and while true; do on-off-cpu 1; done at the same time. (on-off-cpu 1 simple does echo 0/1 > /sys/.../cpu1/online thing). Suprisingly the box (dual-core Core2) is quite usable. In fact I'm typing this on right now in gnome-terminal and things are moving just fine. Also this is running with most of the debug features enabled (lockdep, mutex, etc) no BUG_ONs or lockdep complaints so far. I believe I addressed all of the Dmitry's comments for original Linus' version. I changed both fair and rt balancer to mask out non-active cpus. And replaced cpu_is_offline() with !cpu_active() in the main scheduler code where it made sense (to me).

The domains * and groups cannot be updated in place without racing with the balancing * code, so we temporarily attach all running cpus to the NULL domain * which will prevent rebalancing while the sched domains are recalculated. */ The sched-domains should be rebuilt when a CPU_DOWN ops. has been completed, effectively either upon CPU_DEAD{_FROZEN} (upon success) or CPU_DOWN_FAILED{_FROZEN} (upon failure -- restore the things to their initial state). That's what update_sched_domains() also does but only for !CPUSETS case. With f18f982ab, sched-domains' reinitialization is delegated to CPUSETS code: cpuset_handle_cpuhp() -> common_cpu_mem_hotplug_unplug() -> rebuild_sched_domains() Being called for CPU_UP_PREPARE and if its callback is called after update_sched_domains()), it just negates all the work done by update_sched_domains() -- i.e. a soon-to-be-offline cpu is included in the sched-domains and that makes it visible for the load-balancer while the CPU_DOWN ops. is in progress. __migrate_live_tasks() moves the tasks off a 'dead' cpu (it's already "offline" when this function is called). try_to_wake_up() is called for one of these tasks from another CPU -> the load-balancer (wake_idle()) picks up a "dead" CPU and places the task on it. Then e.g. BUG_ON(rq->nr_running) detects this a bit later -> oops.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to a merge conflict, the sched_relax_domain_level control file was marked as being handled by cpuset_read/write_u64, but the code to handle it was actually in cpuset_common_file_read/write. Since the value being written/read is in fact a signed integer, it should be treated as such; this patch adds cpuset_read/write_s64 functions, and uses them to handle the sched_relax_domain_level file.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the cpusets mem_exclusive flag is overloaded to mean both "no-overlapping" and "no GFP_KERNEL allocations outside this cpuset".

Additionally, the cgroup control file registration for cpusets is cleaned up to reduce boilerplate.
