      watchdog/core: Get rid of the thread teardown/setup dance · d57108d4
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      The lockup detector reconfiguration tears down all watchdog threads when
the watchdog is disabled and sets them up again when its enabled.

That's a pointless exercise. The watchdog threads are not consuming an
insane amount of resources, so it's enough to set them up at init time and
keep them in parked position when the watchdog is disabled and unpark them
when it is reenabled. The smpboot thread infrastructure takes care of
keeping the force parked threads in place even across cpu hotplug.

Aside of that the code implements the park/unpark facility of smp hotplug
threads on its own, which is even more pointless. We have functionality in
the smpboot thread code to do so.

Use the new thread management functions and get rid of the unholy mess.

      watchdog/core: Create new thread handling infrastructure · 2eb2527f

Another horrible mechanism are the open coded park/unpark loops which are
used for reconfiguration of the watchdog. The smpboot infrastructure allows
exactly the same via smpboot_update_cpumask_thread_percpu(), which is cpu
hotplug safe. Using that instead of the open coded loops allows to get rid
of the hotplug locking mess in the watchdog code.

Implement a clean infrastructure which allows to replace the open coded
nonsense.

      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      smpboot_update_cpumask_threads_percpu() allocates a temporary cpumask at
runtime. This is suboptimal because the call site needs more code size for
proper error handling than a statically allocated temporary mask requires
data size.

Add static temporary cpumask. The function is globaly serialized, so no
further protection required.

Remove the half baken error handling in the watchdog code and get rid of
the export as there are no in tree modular users of that function.

      watchdog/core: Remove the park_in_progress obfuscation · 01f0a027
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      Commit:

  b94f5118 ("kernel/watchdog: prevent false hardlockup on overloaded system")

tries to fix the following issue:

proc_write()
   set_sample_period()    <--- New sample period becoms visible
			  <----- Broken starts
   proc_watchdog_update()
     watchdog_enable_all_cpus()		watchdog_hrtimer_fn()
     update_watchdog_all_cpus()		   restart_timer(sample_period)
        watchdog_park_threads()

					thread->park()
					  disable_nmi()
			  <----- Broken ends

The reason why this is broken is that the update of the watchdog threshold
becomes immediately effective and visible for the hrtimer function which
uses that value to rearm the timer. But the NMI/perf side still uses the
old value up to the point where it is disabled. If the rate has been
lowered then the NMI can run fast enough to 'detect' a hard lockup because
the timer has not fired due to the longer period.

The patch 'fixed' this by adding a variable:

proc_write()
   set_sample_period()
					<----- Broken starts
   proc_watchdog_update()
     watchdog_enable_all_cpus()		watchdog_hrtimer_fn()
     update_watchdog_all_cpus()		   restart_timer(sample_period)
         watchdog_park_threads()
	  park_in_progress = 1
					<----- Broken ends
				        nmi_watchdog()
					  if (park_in_progress)
					     return;

The only effect of this variable was to make the window where the breakage
can hit small enough that it was not longer observable in testing. From a
correctness point of view it is a pointless bandaid which merily papers
over the root cause: the unsychronized update of the variable.

Looking deeper into the related code pathes unearthed similar problems in
the watchdog_start()/stop() functions.

 watchdog_start()
	perf_nmi_event_start()
	hrtimer_start()

 watchdog_stop()
	hrtimer_cancel()
	perf_nmi_event_stop()

In both cases the call order is wrong because if the tasks gets preempted
or the VM gets scheduled out long enough after the first call, then there is
a chance that the next NMI will see a stale hrtimer interrupt count and
trigger a false positive hard lockup splat.

Get rid of park_in_progress so the code can be gradually deobfuscated and
pruned from several layers of duct tape papering over the root cause,
which has been either ignored or not understood at all.

Once this is removed the underlying problem will be fixed by rewriting the
proc interface to do a proper synchronized update.

Address the start/stop() ordering problem as well by reverting the call
order, so this part is at least correct now.

      watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Prevent CPU hotplug deadlock · 941154bd
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      The following deadlock is possible in the watchdog hotplug code:

  cpus_write_lock()
    ...
      takedown_cpu()
        smpboot_park_threads()
          smpboot_park_thread()
            kthread_park()
              ->park() := watchdog_disable()
                watchdog_nmi_disable()
                  perf_event_release_kernel();
                    put_event()
                      _free_event()
                        ->destroy() := hw_perf_event_destroy()
                          x86_release_hardware()
                            release_ds_buffers()
                              get_online_cpus()

when a per cpu watchdog perf event is destroyed which drops the last
reference to the PMU hardware. The cleanup code there invokes
get_online_cpus() which instantly deadlocks because the hotplug percpu
rwsem is write locked.

To solve this add a deferring mechanism:

  cpus_write_lock()
			   kthread_park()
			    watchdog_nmi_disable(deferred)
			      perf_event_disable(event);
			      move_event_to_deferred(event);
			   ....
  cpus_write_unlock()
  cleaup_deferred_events()
    perf_event_release_kernel()

This is still properly serialized against concurrent hotplug via the
cpu_add_remove_lock, which is held by the task which initiated the hotplug
event.

This is also used to handle event destruction when the watchdog threads are
parked via other mechanisms than CPU hotplug.

      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      The self disabling feature is broken vs. CPU hotplug locking:

CPU 0			   CPU 1
cpus_write_lock();
 cpu_up(1)
   wait_for_completion()
			   ....
			   unpark_watchdog()
			   ->unpark()
			     perf_event_create() <- fails
			       watchdog_enable &= ~NMI_WATCHDOG;
			   ....

			   wakeup(watchdog);
			     watchdog()
			     if (!(watchdog_enable & NMI_WATCHDOG))
				watchdog_nmi_disable()
				  perf_event_disable()
				  ....
				  cpus_read_lock();

			   stop_smpboot_threads()
			     park_watchdog();
			       wait_for_completion(watchdog->parked);

Result: End of hotplug and instantaneous full lockup of the machine.

There is a similar problem with disabling the watchdog via the user space
interface as the sysctl function fiddles with watchdog_enable directly.

It's very debatable whether this is required at all. If the watchdog works
nicely on N CPUs and it fails to enable on the N + 1 CPU either during
hotplug or because the user space interface disabled it via sysctl cpumask
and then some perf user grabbed the counter which is then unavailable for
the watchdog when the sysctl cpumask gets changed back.

There is no real justification for this.

One of the reasons WHY this is done is the utter stupidity of the init code
of the perf NMI watchdog. Instead of checking upfront at boot whether PERF
is available and functional at all, it just does this check at run time
over and over when user space fiddles with the sysctl. That's broken beyond
repair along with the idiotic error code dependent warn level printks and
the even more silly printk rate limiting.

If the init code checks whether perf works at boot time, then this mess can
be more or less avoided completely. Perf does not come magically into life
at runtime. Brain usage while coding is overrated.

Remove the cruft and add a temporary safe guard which gets removed later.

      kernel/watchdog: Prevent false positives with turbo modes · 7edaeb68
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      The hardlockup detector on x86 uses a performance counter based on unhalted
CPU cycles and a periodic hrtimer. The hrtimer period is about 2/5 of the
performance counter period, so the hrtimer should fire 2-3 times before the
performance counter NMI fires. The NMI code checks whether the hrtimer
fired since the last invocation. If not, it assumess a hard lockup.

The calculation of those periods is based on the nominal CPU
frequency. Turbo modes increase the CPU clock frequency and therefore
shorten the period of the perf/NMI watchdog. With extreme Turbo-modes (3x
nominal frequency) the perf/NMI period is shorter than the hrtimer period
which leads to false positives.

A simple fix would be to shorten the hrtimer period, but that comes with
the side effect of more frequent hrtimer and softlockup thread wakeups,
which is not desired.

Implement a low pass filter, which checks the perf/NMI period against
kernel time. If the perf/NMI fires before 4/5 of the watchdog period has
elapsed then the event is ignored and postponed to the next perf/NMI.

That solves the problem and avoids the overhead of shorter hrtimer periods
and more frequent softlockup thread wakeups.

      perf/x86/intel, watchdog: Switch NMI watchdog to ref cycles on x86 · 2c95afc1
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      The NMI watchdog uses either the fixed cycles or a generic cycles
counter. This causes a lot of conflicts with users of the PMU who want
to run a full group including the cycles fixed counter, for example
the --topdown support recently added to perf stat. The code needs to
fall back to not use groups, which can cause measurement inaccuracy
due to multiplexing errors.

This patch switches the NMI watchdog to use reference cycles
on Intel systems.  This is actually more accurate than cycles,
because cycles can tick faster than the measured CPU Frequency
due to Turbo mode.

The ref cycles always tick at their frequency, or slower when
the system is idling. That means the NMI watchdog can never
expire too early, unlike with cycles.

The reference cycles tick roughly at the frequency of the TSC,
so the same period computation can be used.

      panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save registers even if looping in NMI context · 58c5661f
      由 Hidehiro Kawai 提交于 
      Currently, kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus(), a subroutine of crash_kexec(),
sends an NMI IPI to CPUs which haven't called panic() to stop them,
save their register information and do some cleanups for crash dumping.
However, if such a CPU is infinitely looping in NMI context, we fail to
save its register information into the crash dump.

For example, this can happen when unknown NMIs are broadcast to all
CPUs as follows:

  CPU 0                             CPU 1
  ===========================       ==========================
  receive an unknown NMI
  unknown_nmi_error()
    panic()                         receive an unknown NMI
      spin_trylock(&panic_lock)     unknown_nmi_error()
      crash_kexec()                   panic()
                                        spin_trylock(&panic_lock)
                                        panic_smp_self_stop()
                                          infinite loop
        kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus()
          issue NMI IPI -----------> blocked until IRET
                                          infinite loop...

Here, since CPU 1 is in NMI context, the second NMI from CPU 0 is
blocked until CPU 1 executes IRET. However, CPU 1 never executes IRET,
so the NMI is not handled and the callback function to save registers is
never called.

In practice, this can happen on some servers which broadcast NMIs to all
CPUs when the NMI button is pushed.

To save registers in this case, we need to:

  a) Return from NMI handler instead of looping infinitely
  or
  b) Call the callback function directly from the infinite loop

Inherently, a) is risky because NMI is also used to prevent corrupted
data from being propagated to devices.  So, we chose b).

This patch does the following:

1. Move the infinite looping of CPUs which haven't called panic() in NMI
   context (actually done by panic_smp_self_stop()) outside of panic() to
   enable us to refer pt_regs. Please note that panic_smp_self_stop() is
   still used for normal context.

2. Call a callback of kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus() directly to save
   registers and do some cleanups after setting waiting_for_crash_ipi which
   is used for counting down the number of CPUs which handled the callback

      panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic on NMI · 1717f209
      由 Hidehiro Kawai 提交于 
      If panic on NMI happens just after panic() on the same CPU, panic() is
recursively called. Kernel stalls, as a result, after failing to acquire
panic_lock.

To avoid this problem, don't call panic() in NMI context if we've
already entered panic().

For that, introduce nmi_panic() macro to reduce code duplication. In
the case of panic on NMI, don't return from NMI handlers if another CPU
already panicked.

      workqueue: implement lockup detector · 82607adc
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      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.

To alleviate the situation, this patch implements workqueue lockup
detector.  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.

 BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 31s!
 Showing busy workqueues and worker pools:
 workqueue events: flags=0x0
   pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=17/256

 workqueue events_power_efficient: flags=0x80

   pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/1
     pending: cgroup_pidlist_destroy_work_fn
 ...

The detection mechanism is controller through kernel parameter
workqueue.watchdog_thresh and can be updated at runtime through the
sysfs module parameter file.

      watchdog: introduce touch_softlockup_watchdog_sched() · 03e0d461
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      touch_softlockup_watchdog() is used to tell watchdog that scheduler
stall is expected.  One group of usage is from paths where the task
may not be able to yield for a long time such as performing slow PIO
to finicky device and coming out of suspend.  The other is to account
for scheduler and timer going idle.

For scheduler softlockup detection, there's no reason to distinguish
the two cases; however, workqueue lockup detector is planned and it
can use the same signals from the former group while the latter would
spuriously prevent detection.  This patch introduces a new function
touch_softlockup_watchdog_sched() and convert the latter group to call
it instead.  For now, it just calls touch_softlockup_watchdog() and
there's no functional difference.
