hung_task: show the blocker task if the task is hung on mutex 2025-03-22T05:10:04+00:00 Masami Hiramatsu (Google) mhiramat@kernel.org 2025-02-25T07:02:34+00:00 3cf67d61ff98672120f6ad07528afa165df12588 Patch series "hung_task: Dump the blocking task stacktrace", v4. The hung_task detector is very useful for detecting the lockup. However, since it only dumps the blocked (uninterruptible sleep) processes, it is not enough to identify the root cause of that lockup. For example, if a process holds a mutex and sleep an event in interruptible state long time, the other processes will wait on the mutex in uninterruptible state. In this case, the waiter processes are dumped, but the blocker process is not shown because it is sleep in interruptible state. This adds a feature to dump the blocker task which holds a mutex when detecting a hung task. e.g. INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

Patch series "hung_task: Dump the blocking task stacktrace", v4.

The hung_task detector is very useful for detecting the lockup.  However,
since it only dumps the blocked (uninterruptible sleep) processes, it is
not enough to identify the root cause of that lockup.

For example, if a process holds a mutex and sleep an event in
interruptible state long time, the other processes will wait on the mutex
in uninterruptible state.  In this case, the waiter processes are dumped,
but the blocker process is not shown because it is sleep in interruptible
state.

This adds a feature to dump the blocker task which holds a mutex
when detecting a hung task. e.g.

 INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

TBD: We can extend this feature to cover other locks like rwsem and
rt_mutex, but rwsem requires to dump all the tasks which acquire and wait
that rwsem.  We can follow the waiter link but the output will be a bit
different compared with mutex case.


This patch (of 2):

The "hung_task" shows a long-time uninterruptible slept task, but most
often, it's blocked on a mutex acquired by another task.  Without dumping
such a task, investigating the root cause of the hung task problem is very
difficult.

This introduce task_struct::blocker_mutex to point the mutex lock which
this task is waiting for.  Since the mutex has "owner" information, we can
find the owner task and dump it with hung tasks.

Note: the owner can be changed while dumping the owner task, so
this is "likely" the owner of the mutex.

With this change, the hung task shows blocker task's info like below;

perf: Save PMU specific data in task_struct 2025-03-17T10:23:36+00:00 Kan Liang kan.liang@linux.intel.com 2025-03-14T17:26:54+00:00 cb4369129339060218baca718a578bb0b826e734 Some PMU specific data has to be saved/restored during context switch, e.g. LBR call stack data. Currently, the data is saved in event context structure, but only for per-process event. For system-wide event, because of missing the LBR call stack data after context switch, LBR callstacks are always shorter in comparison to per-process mode. For example, Per-process mode: $perf record --call-graph lbr -- taskset -c 0 ./tchain_edit - 99.90% 99.86% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f3 99.86% _start __libc_start_main generic_start_main main f1 - f2 f3 System-wide mode: $perf record --call-graph lbr -a -- taskset -c 0 ./tchain_edit - 99.88% 99.82% tchain_edit tchain_edit [.] f3 - 62.02% main f1 f2 f3 - 28.83% f1 - f2 f3 - 28.83% f1 - f2 f3 - 8.88% generic_start_main main f1 f2 f3 It isn't practical to simply allocate the data for system-wide event in CPU context structure for all tasks. We have no idea which CPU a task will be scheduled to. The duplicated LBR data has to be maintained on every CPU context structure. That's a huge waste. Otherwise, the LBR data still lost if the task is scheduled to another CPU. Save the pmu specific data in task_struct. The size of pmu specific data is 788 bytes for LBR call stack. Usually, the overall amount of threads doesn't exceed a few thousands. For 10K threads, keeping LBR data would consume additional ~8MB. The additional space will only be allocated during LBR call stack monitoring. It will be released when the monitoring is finished. Furthermore, moving task_ctx_data from perf_event_context to task_struct can reduce complexity and make things clearer. E.g. perf doesn't need to swap task_ctx_data on optimized context switch path. This patch set is just the first step. There could be other optimization/extension on top of this patch set. E.g. for cgroup profiling, perf just needs to save/store the LBR call stack information for tasks in specific cgroup. That could reduce the additional space. Also, the LBR call stack can be available for software events, or allow even debugging use cases, like LBRs on crash later. Because of the alignment requirement of Intel Arch LBR, the Kmem cache is used to allocate the PMU specific data. It's required when child task allocates the space. Save it in struct perf_ctx_data. The refcount in struct perf_ctx_data is used to track the users of pmu specific data.

Some PMU specific data has to be saved/restored during context switch,
e.g. LBR call stack data. Currently, the data is saved in event context
structure, but only for per-process event. For system-wide event,
because of missing the LBR call stack data after context switch, LBR
callstacks are always shorter in comparison to per-process mode.

For example,
  Per-process mode:
  $perf record --call-graph lbr -- taskset -c 0 ./tchain_edit

  -   99.90%    99.86%  tchain_edit  tchain_edit       [.] f3
       99.86% _start
          __libc_start_main
          generic_start_main
          main
          f1
        - f2
             f3

  System-wide mode:
  $perf record --call-graph lbr -a -- taskset -c 0 ./tchain_edit

  -   99.88%    99.82%  tchain_edit  tchain_edit        [.] f3
   - 62.02% main
        f1
        f2
        f3
   - 28.83% f1
      - f2
        f3
   - 28.83% f1
      - f2
           f3
   - 8.88% generic_start_main
        main
        f1
        f2
        f3

It isn't practical to simply allocate the data for system-wide event in
CPU context structure for all tasks. We have no idea which CPU a task
will be scheduled to. The duplicated LBR data has to be maintained on
every CPU context structure. That's a huge waste. Otherwise, the LBR

Save the pmu specific data in task_struct. The size of pmu specific data
