      epoll: introduce POLLFREE to flush ->signalfd_wqh before kfree() · d80e731e
      由 Oleg Nesterov 提交于 
      This patch is intentionally incomplete to simplify the review.
It ignores ep_unregister_pollwait() which plays with the same wqh.
See the next change.

epoll assumes that the EPOLL_CTL_ADD'ed file controls everything
f_op->poll() needs. In particular it assumes that the wait queue
can't go away until eventpoll_release(). This is not true in case
of signalfd, the task which does EPOLL_CTL_ADD uses its ->sighand
which is not connected to the file.

This patch adds the special event, POLLFREE, currently only for
epoll. It expects that init_poll_funcptr()'ed hook should do the
necessary cleanup. Perhaps it should be defined as EPOLLFREE in
eventpoll.

__cleanup_sighand() is changed to do wake_up_poll(POLLFREE) if
->signalfd_wqh is not empty, we add the new signalfd_cleanup()
helper.

ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) simply does list_del_init(task_list).
This make this poll entry inconsistent, but we don't care. If you
share epoll fd which contains our sigfd with another process you
should blame yourself. signalfd is "really special". I simply do
not know how we can define the "right" semantics if it used with
epoll.

The main problem is, epoll calls signalfd_poll() once to establish
the connection with the wait queue, after that signalfd_poll(NULL)
returns the different/inconsistent results depending on who does
EPOLL_CTL_MOD/signalfd_read/etc. IOW: apart from sigmask, signalfd
has nothing to do with the file, it works with the current thread.

In short: this patch is the hack which tries to fix the symptoms.
It also assumes that nobody can take tasklist_lock under epoll
locks, this seems to be true.

Note:

	- we do not have wake_up_all_poll() but wake_up_poll()
	  is fine, poll/epoll doesn't use WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE.

	- signalfd_cleanup() uses POLLHUP along with POLLFREE,
	  we need a couple of simple changes in eventpoll.c to
	  make sure it can't be "lost".

      sched/events: Revert trace_sched_stat_sleeptime() · 8c79a045
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      Commit 1ac9bc69 ("sched/tracing: Add a new tracepoint for sleeptime")
added a new sched:sched_stat_sleeptime tracepoint.

It's broken: the first sample we get on a task might be bad because
of a stale sleep_start value that wasn't reset at the last task switch
because the tracepoint was not active.

It also breaks the existing schedstat samples due to the side
effects of:

-               se->statistics.sleep_start = 0;
...
-               se->statistics.block_start = 0;

Nor do I see means to fix it without adding overhead to the scheduler
fast path, which I'm not willing to for the sake of redundant
instrumentation.

Most importantly, sleep time information can already be constructed
by tracing context switches and wakeups, and taking the timestamp
difference between the schedule-out, the wakeup and the schedule-in.

      genirq: Handle pending irqs in irq_startup() · b4bc724e
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      An interrupt might be pending when irq_startup() is called, but the
startup code does not invoke the resend logic. In some cases this
prevents the device from issuing another interrupt which renders the
device non functional.

Call the resend function in irq_startup() to keep things going.

      genirq: Unmask oneshot irqs when thread was not woken · ac563761
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      When the primary handler of an interrupt which is marked IRQ_ONESHOT
returns IRQ_HANDLED or IRQ_NONE, then the interrupt thread is not
woken and the unmask logic of the interrupt line is never
invoked. This keeps the interrupt masked forever.

This was not noticed as most IRQ_ONESHOT users wake the thread
unconditionally (usually because they cannot access the underlying
device from hard interrupt context). Though this behaviour was nowhere
documented and not necessarily intentional. Some drivers can avoid the
thread wakeup in certain cases and run into the situation where the
interrupt line s kept masked.

Handle it gracefully.

      perf: Fix double start/stop in x86_pmu_start() · f39d47ff
      由 Stephane Eranian 提交于 
      The following patch fixes a bug introduced by the following
commit:

        e050e3f0 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")

The patch caused the following warning to pop up depending on
the sampling frequency adjustments:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c:995 x86_pmu_start+0x79/0xd4()

It was caused by the following call sequence:

perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.part() {
     stop()
     if (delta > 0) {
          perf_adjust_period() {
              if (period > 8*...) {
                  stop()
                  ...
                  start()
              }
          }
      }
      start()
}

Which caused a double start and a double stop, thus triggering
the assert in x86_pmu_start().

The patch fixes the problem by avoiding the double calls. We
pass a new argument to perf_adjust_period() to indicate whether
or not the event is already stopped. We can't just remove the
start/stop from that function because it's called from
__perf_event_overflow where the event needs to be reloaded via a
stop/start back-toback call.

The patch reintroduces the assertion in x86_pmu_start() which
was removed by commit:

	84f2b9b2 ("perf: Remove deprecated WARN_ON_ONCE()")

In this second version, we've added calls to disable/enable PMU
during unthrottling or frequency adjustment based on bug report
of spurious NMI interrupts from Eric Dumazet.

      block: strip out locking optimization in put_io_context() · 11a3122f
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      put_io_context() performed a complex trylock dancing to avoid
deferring ioc release to workqueue.  It was also broken on UP because
trylock was always assumed to succeed which resulted in unbalanced
preemption count.

While there are ways to fix the UP breakage, even the most
pathological microbench (forced ioc allocation and tight fork/exit
loop) fails to show any appreciable performance benefit of the
optimization.  Strip it out.  If there turns out to be workloads which
are affected by this change, simpler optimization from the discussion
thread can be applied later.

      PM / Freezer: Thaw only kernel threads if freezing of kernel threads fails · 379e0be8
      由 Srivatsa S. Bhat 提交于 
      If freezing of kernel threads fails, we are expected to automatically
thaw tasks in the error recovery path. However, at times, we encounter
situations in which we would like the automatic error recovery path
to thaw only the kernel threads, because we want to be able to do
some more cleanup before we thaw userspace. Something like:

error = freeze_kernel_threads();
if (error) {
	/* Do some cleanup */

	/* Only then thaw userspace tasks*/
	thaw_processes();
}

An example of such a situation is where we freeze/thaw filesystems
during suspend/hibernation. There, if freezing of kernel threads
fails, we would like to thaw the frozen filesystems before thawing
the userspace tasks.

So, modify freeze_kernel_threads() to thaw only kernel threads in
case of freezing failure. And change suspend_freeze_processes()
accordingly. (At the same time, let us also get rid of the rather
cryptic usage of the conditional operator (:?) in that function.)

[rjw: In fact, this patch fixes a regression introduced during the
 3.3 merge window, because without it thaw_processes() may be called
 before swsusp_free() in some situations and that may lead to massive
 memory allocation failures.]

      PM / Hibernate: Fix s2disk regression related to freezing workqueues · 181e9bde
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Commit 2aede851

  PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory

introduced a mechanism by which kernel threads were frozen after
the preallocation of hibernate image memory to avoid problems with
frozen kernel threads not responding to memory freeing requests.
However, it overlooked the s2disk code path in which the
SNAPSHOT_CREATE_IMAGE ioctl was run directly after SNAPSHOT_FREE,
which caused freeze_workqueues_begin() to BUG(), because it saw
that worqueues had been already frozen.

Although in principle this issue might be addressed by removing
the relevant BUG_ON() from freeze_workqueues_begin(), that would
reintroduce the very problem that commit 2aede851
attempted to avoid into that particular code path.  For this reason,
to fix the issue at hand, introduce thaw_kernel_threads() and make
the SNAPSHOT_FREE ioctl execute it.

Special thanks to Srivatsa S. Bhat for detailed analysis of the
problem.

      sched/rt: Fix task stack corruption under __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW · cb297a3e
      由 Chanho Min 提交于 
      This issue happens under the following conditions:

 1. preemption is off
 2. __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW is defined
 3. RT scheduling class
 4. SMP system

Sequence is as follows:

 1.suppose current task is A. start schedule()
 2.task A is enqueued pushable task at the entry of schedule()
   __schedule
    prev = rq->curr;
    ...
    put_prev_task
     put_prev_task_rt
      enqueue_pushable_task
 4.pick the task B as next task.
   next = pick_next_task(rq);
 3.rq->curr set to task B and context_switch is started.
   rq->curr = next;
 4.At the entry of context_swtich, release this cpu's rq->lock.
   context_switch
    prepare_task_switch
     prepare_lock_switch
      raw_spin_unlock_irq(&rq->lock);
 5.Shortly after rq->lock is released, interrupt is occurred and start IRQ context
 6.try_to_wake_up() which called by ISR acquires rq->lock
    try_to_wake_up
     ttwu_remote
      rq = __task_rq_lock(p)
      ttwu_do_wakeup(rq, p, wake_flags);
        task_woken_rt
 7.push_rt_task picks the task A which is enqueued before.
   task_woken_rt
    push_rt_tasks(rq)
     next_task = pick_next_pushable_task(rq)
 8.At find_lock_lowest_rq(), If double_lock_balance() returns 0,
   lowest_rq can be the remote rq.
  (But,If preemption is on, double_lock_balance always return 1 and it
   does't happen.)
   push_rt_task
    find_lock_lowest_rq
     if (double_lock_balance(rq, lowest_rq))..
 9.find_lock_lowest_rq return the available rq. task A is migrated to
   the remote cpu/rq.
   push_rt_task
    ...
    deactivate_task(rq, next_task, 0);
    set_task_cpu(next_task, lowest_rq->cpu);
    activate_task(lowest_rq, next_task, 0);
 10. But, task A is on irq context at this cpu.
     So, task A is scheduled by two cpus at the same time until restore from IRQ.
     Task A's stack is corrupted.

To fix it, don't migrate an RT task if it's still running.

      perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling · e050e3f0
      由 Stephane Eranian 提交于 
      This patch fixes the sampling interrupt throttling mechanism.

It was broken in v3.2. Events were not being unthrottled. The
unthrottling mechanism required that events be checked at each
timer tick.

This patch solves this problem and also separates:

  - unthrottling
  - multiplexing
  - frequency-mode period adjustments

Not all of them need to be executed at each timer tick.

This third version of the patch is based on my original patch +
PeterZ proposal (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/7/87).

At each timer tick, for each context:

  - if the current CPU has throttled events, we unthrottle events

  - if context has frequency-based events, we adjust sampling periods

  - if we have reached the jiffies interval, we multiplex (rotate)

We decoupled rotation (multiplexing) from frequency-mode sampling
period adjustments.  They should not necessarily happen at the same
rate. Multiplexing is subject to jiffies_interval (currently at 1
but could be higher once the tunable is exposed via sysfs).

We have grouped frequency-mode adjustment and unthrottling into the
same routine to minimize code duplication. When throttled while in
frequency mode, we scan the events only once.

We have fixed the threshold enforcement code in __perf_event_overflow().
There was a bug whereby it would allow more than the authorized rate
because an increment of hwc->interrupts was not executed at the right
place.

The patch was tested with low sampling limit (2000) and fixed periods,
frequency mode, overcommitted PMU.

On a 2.1GHz AMD CPU:

 $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
 2000

We set a rate of 3000 samples/sec (2.1GHz/3000 = 700000):

 $ perf record -e cycles,cycles -c 700000  noploop 10
 $ perf report -D | tail -21

           TOTAL events:      80086

For 10s, the cap is 2x2000x10 = 40000 samples.
We get exactly that: 20000 samples/event.

      sched: Fix ancient race in do_exit() · b5740f4b
      由 Yasunori Goto 提交于 
      try_to_wake_up() has a problem which may change status from TASK_DEAD to
TASK_RUNNING in race condition with SMI or guest environment of virtual
machine. As a result, exited task is scheduled() again and panic occurs.

Here is the sequence how it occurs:

 ----------------------------------+-----------------------------
                                   |

      list_add to sem->wait_list
           :
      raw_spin_unlock_irq()
      (I/O interruption occured)

                                        waiter->task = NULL

                                              p->on_rq is still 1.)

                                              ttwu_do_wakeup()
                                                 (*A)

     (I/O interruption handler finished)

      if (!waiter.task)
          schedule() is not called
          due to waiter.task is NULL.

      tsk->state = TASK_RUNNING

          :
                                              check_preempt_curr();
                                                  :
  task->state = TASK_DEAD
                                              (*B)
                                        <---    set TASK_RUNNING (*C)

     schedule()
     (exit task is running again)
     BUG_ON() is called!
 --------------------------------------------------------

The execution time between (*A) and (*B) is usually very short,
because the interruption is disabled, and setting TASK_RUNNING at (*C)
must be executed before setting TASK_DEAD.

HOWEVER, if SMI is interrupted between (*A) and (*B),
(*C) is able to execute AFTER setting TASK_DEAD!
Then, exited task is scheduled again, and BUG_ON() is called....

If the system works on guest system of virtual machine, the time
between (*A) and (*B) may be also long due to scheduling of hypervisor,
and same phenomenon can occur.

By this patch, do_exit() waits for releasing task->pi_lock which is used
in try_to_wake_up(). It guarantees the task becomes TASK_DEAD after
waking up.

This happens because the printk levels for these messages are
incorrect. Only an informational message should be displayed on
a terminal.

I modified the printk levels for various messages in the kernel
and tested the output by using the drivers/misc/lkdtm.c kernel
modules (ie, softlockups, panics, hard lockups, etc.) and
confirmed that the console output was still the same and that
the output to the terminals was correct.

For example, in the case of a softlockup we now see the much
more informative:

 Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 10:18:06 ...
 BUG: soft lockup - CPU4 stuck for 60s!

instead of the above confusing messages.

AFAICT, the messages no longer have to be KERN_EMERG.  In the
most important case of a panic we set console_verbose().  As for
the other less severe cases the correct data is output to the
console and /var/log/messages.

Successfully tested by me using the drivers/misc/lkdtm.c module.

      sched/nohz: Fix nohz cpu idle load balancing state with cpu hotplug · 71325960
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      With the recent nohz scheduler changes, rq's nohz flag
'NOHZ_TICK_STOPPED' and its associated state doesn't get cleared
immediately after the cpu exits idle. This gets cleared as part
of the next tick seen on that cpu.

For the cpu offline support, we need to clear this state
manually. Fix it by registering a cpu notifier, which clears the
nohz idle load balance state for this rq explicitly during the
CPU_DYING notification.

There won't be any nohz updates for that cpu, after the
CPU_DYING notification. But lets be extra paranoid and skip
updating the nohz state in the select_nohz_load_balancer() if
the cpu is not in active state anymore.

      sched/s390: Fix compile error in sched/core.c · db7e527d
      由 Christian Borntraeger 提交于 
      Commit 029632fb ("sched: Make
separate sched*.c translation units") removed the include of
asm/mutex.h from sched.c.

This breaks the combination of:

 CONFIG_MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER=yes
 CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX=yes

like s390 without mutex debugging:

  CC      kernel/sched/core.o
  kernel/sched/core.c: In function ‘mutex_spin_on_owner’:
  kernel/sched/core.c:3287: error: implicit declaration of function ‘arch_mutex_cpu_relax’

Lets re-add the include to kernel/sched/core.c

      sched: Fix rq->nr_uninterruptible update race · 4ca9b72b
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      KOSAKI Motohiro noticed the following race:

 > CPU0                    CPU1
 > --------------------------------------------------------
 > deactivate_task()
 >                         task->state = TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE;
 > activate_task()
 >    rq->nr_uninterruptible--;
 >
 >                         schedule()
 >                           deactivate_task()
 >                             rq->nr_uninterruptible++;
 >

Kosaki-San's scenario is possible when CPU0 runs
__sched_setscheduler() against CPU1's current @task.

__sched_setscheduler() does a dequeue/enqueue in order to move
the task to its new queue (position) to reflect the newly provided
scheduling parameters. However it should be completely invariant to
nr_uninterruptible accounting, sched_setscheduler() doesn't affect
readyness to run, merely policy on when to run.

So convert the inappropriate activate/deactivate_task usage to
enqueue/dequeue_task, which avoids the nr_uninterruptible accounting.

Also convert the two other sites: __migrate_task() and
normalize_task() that still use activate/deactivate_task. These sites
aren't really a problem since __migrate_task() will only be called on
non-running task (and therefore are immume to the described problem)
and normalize_task() isn't ever used on regular systems.

Also remove the comments from activate/deactivate_task since they're
misleading at best.

      net: introduce res_counter_charge_nofail() for socket allocations · 0e90b31f
      由 Glauber Costa 提交于 
      There is a case in __sk_mem_schedule(), where an allocation
is beyond the maximum, but yet we are allowed to proceed.
It happens under the following condition:

	sk->sk_wmem_queued + size >= sk->sk_sndbuf

The network code won't revert the allocation in this case,
meaning that at some point later it'll try to do it. Since
this is never communicated to the underlying res_counter
code, there is an inbalance in res_counter uncharge operation.

I see two ways of fixing this:

1) storing the information about those allocations somewhere
   in memcg, and then deducting from that first, before
   we start draining the res_counter,
2) providing a slightly different allocation function for
   the res_counter, that matches the original behavior of
   the network code more closely.

I decided to go for #2 here, believing it to be more elegant,
since #1 would require us to do basically that, but in a more
obscure way.
