      rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ handle timer migration · 21e52e15
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      The current RCU_FAST_NO_HZ assumes that timers do not migrate unless a
      CPU goes offline, in which case it assumes that the CPU will have to come
      out of dyntick-idle mode (cancelling the timer) in order to go offline.
      This is important because when RCU_FAST_NO_HZ permits a CPU to enter
      dyntick-idle mode despite having RCU callbacks pending, it posts a timer
      on that CPU to force a wakeup on that CPU.  This wakeup ensures that the
      CPU will eventually handle the end of the grace period, including invoking
      its RCU callbacks.
      
      However, Pascal Chapperon's test setup shows that the timer handler
      rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() really does get invoked in some cases.  This is
      problematic because this can cause the CPU that entered dyntick-idle
      mode despite still having RCU callbacks pending to remain in
      dyntick-idle mode indefinitely, which means that its RCU callbacks might
      never be invoked.  This situation can result in grace-period delays or
      even system hangs, which matches Pascal's observations of slow boot-up
      and shutdown (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/5/142).  See also the bugzilla:
      
      	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806548
      
      This commit therefore causes the "should never be invoked" timer handler
      rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() to use smp_call_function_single() to wake up
      the CPU for which the timer was intended, allowing that CPU to invoke
      its RCU callbacks in a timely manner.

      rcu: Add warning for RCU_FAST_NO_HZ timer firing · 79b9a75f
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      RCU_FAST_NO_HZ uses a timer to limit the time that a CPU with callbacks
      can remain in dyntick-idle mode.  This timer is cancelled when the CPU
      exits idle, and therefore should never fire.  However, if the timer
      were migrated to some other CPU for whatever reason (1) the timer could
      actually fire and (2) firing on some other CPU would fail to wake up the
      CPU with callbacks, possibly resulting in sluggishness or a system hang.
      
      This commit therfore adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to the timer handler in order
      to detect this condition.
