cpufreq: Avoid leaving stale IRQ work items during CPU offline

2019-12-31T15:46:06+00:00

commit 85572c2c4a45a541e880e087b5b17a48198b2416 upstream.

The scheduler code calling cpufreq_update_util() may run during CPU
offline on the target CPU after the IRQ work lists have been flushed
for it, so the target CPU should be prevented from running code that
may queue up an IRQ work item on it at that point.

Unfortunately, that may not be the case if dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu
is set for at least one cpufreq policy in the system, because that
allows the CPU going offline to run the utilization update callback
of the cpufreq governor on behalf of another (online) CPU in some
cases.

If that happens, the cpufreq governor callback may queue up an IRQ
work on the CPU running it, which is going offline, and the IRQ work
may not be flushed after that point.  Moreover, that IRQ work cannot
be flushed until the "offlining" CPU goes back online, so if any
other CPU calls irq_work_sync() to wait for the completion of that
IRQ work, it will have to wait until the "offlining" CPU is back
online and that may not happen forever.  In particular, a system-wide
deadlock may occur during CPU online as a result of that.

The failing scenario is as follows.  CPU0 is the boot CPU, so it
creates a cpufreq policy and becomes the "leader" of it
(policy->cpu).  It cannot go offline, because it is the boot CPU.
Next, other CPUs join the cpufreq policy as they go online and they
leave it when they go offline.  The last CPU to go offline, say CPU3,
may queue up an IRQ work while running the governor callback on
behalf of CPU0 after leaving the cpufreq policy because of the
dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu effect described above.  Then, CPU0 is
the only online CPU in the system and the stale IRQ work is still
queued on CPU3.  When, say, CPU1 goes back online, it will run
irq_work_sync() to wait for that IRQ work to complete and so it
will wait for CPU3 to go back online (which may never happen even
in principle), but (worse yet) CPU0 is waiting for CPU1 at that
point too and a system-wide deadlock occurs.

To address this problem notice that CPUs which cannot run cpufreq
utilization update code for themselves (for example, because they
have left the cpufreq policies that they belonged to), should also
be prevented from running that code on behalf of the other CPUs that
belong to a cpufreq policy with dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu set and so
in that case the cpufreq_update_util_data pointer of the CPU running
the code must not be NULL as well as for the CPU which is the target
of the cpufreq utilization update in progress.

Accordingly, change cpufreq_this_cpu_can_update() into a regular
function in kernel/sched/cpufreq.c (instead of a static inline in a
header file) and make it check the cpufreq_update_util_data pointer
of the local CPU if dvfs_possible_from_any_cpu is set for the target
cpufreq policy.

Also update the schedutil governor to do the
cpufreq_this_cpu_can_update() check in the non-fast-switch
case too to avoid the stale IRQ work issues.

sched/uclamp: Fix overzealous type replacement

2019-12-31T15:45:37+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7763baace1b738d65efa46d68326c9406311c6bf ]

Some uclamp helpers had their return type changed from 'unsigned int' to
'enum uclamp_id' by commit

  0413d7f33e60 ("sched/uclamp: Always use 'enum uclamp_id' for clamp_id values")

but it happens that some do return a value in the [0, SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE]
range, which should really be unsigned int. The affected helpers are
uclamp_none(), uclamp_rq_max_value() and uclamp_eff_value(). Fix those up.

Note that this doesn't lead to any obj diff using a relatively recent
aarch64 compiler (8.3-2019.03). The current code of e.g. uclamp_eff_value()
properly returns an 11 bit value (bits_per(1024)) and doesn't seem to do
anything funny. I'm still marking this as fixing the above commit to be on
the safe side.

sched/core: Avoid spurious lock dependencies

2019-11-13T07:01:30+00:00

While seemingly harmless, __sched_fork() does hrtimer_init(), which,
when DEBUG_OBJETS, can end up doing allocations.

This then results in the following lock order:

  rq->lock
    zone->lock.rlock
      batched_entropy_u64.lock

Which in turn causes deadlocks when we do wakeups while holding that
batched_entropy lock -- as the random code does.

Solve this by moving __sched_fork() out from under rq->lock. This is
safe because nothing there relies on rq->lock, as also evident from the
other __sched_fork() callsite.

sched: Fix pick_next_task() vs 'change' pattern race

2019-11-08T21:34:14+00:00

Commit 67692435c411 ("sched: Rework pick_next_task() slow-path")
inadvertly introduced a race because it changed a previously
unexplored dependency between dropping the rq->lock and
sched_class::put_prev_task().

The comments about dropping rq->lock, in for example
newidle_balance(), only mentions the task being current and ->on_cpu
being set. But when we look at the 'change' pattern (in for example
sched_setnuma()):

	queued = task_on_rq_queued(p); /* p->on_rq == TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED */
	running = task_current(rq, p); /* rq->curr == p */

	if (queued)
		dequeue_task(...);
	if (running)
		put_prev_task(...);

	/* change task properties */

	if (queued)
		enqueue_task(...);
	if (running)
		set_next_task(...);

It becomes obvious that if we do this after put_prev_task() has
already been called on @p, things go sideways. This is exactly what
the commit in question allows to happen when it does:

	prev->sched_class->put_prev_task(rq, prev, rf);
	if (!rq->nr_running)
		newidle_balance(rq, rf);

The newidle_balance() call will drop rq->lock after we've called
put_prev_task() and that allows the above 'change' pattern to
interleave and mess up the state.

Furthermore, it turns out we lost the RT-pull when we put the last DL
task.

Fix both problems by extracting the balancing from put_prev_task() and
doing a multi-class balance() pass before put_prev_task().

sched/topology: Allow sched_asym_cpucapacity to be disabled

2019-10-29T08:58:46+00:00

While the static key is correctly initialized as being disabled, it will
remain forever enabled once turned on. This means that if we start with an
asymmetric system and hotplug out enough CPUs to end up with an SMP system,
the static key will remain set - which is obviously wrong. We should detect
this and turn off things like misfit migration and capacity aware wakeups.

As Quentin pointed out, having separate root domains makes this slightly
trickier. We could have exclusive cpusets that create an SMP island - IOW,
the domains within this root domain will not see any asymmetry. This means
we can't just disable the key on domain destruction, we need to count how
many asymmetric root domains we have.

Consider the following example using Juno r0 which is 2+4 big.LITTLE, where
two identical cpusets are created: they both span both big and LITTLE CPUs:

    asym0    asym1
  [       ][       ]
   L  L  B  L  L  B

  $ cgcreate -g cpuset:asym0
  $ cgset -r cpuset.cpus=0,1,3 asym0
  $ cgset -r cpuset.mems=0 asym0
  $ cgset -r cpuset.cpu_exclusive=1 asym0

  $ cgcreate -g cpuset:asym1
  $ cgset -r cpuset.cpus=2,4,5 asym1
  $ cgset -r cpuset.mems=0 asym1
  $ cgset -r cpuset.cpu_exclusive=1 asym1

  $ cgset -r cpuset.sched_load_balance=0 .

(the CPU numbering may look odd because on the Juno LITTLEs are CPUs 0,3-5
and bigs are CPUs 1-2)

If we make one of those SMP (IOW remove asymmetry) by e.g. hotplugging its
big core, we would end up with an SMP cpuset and an asymmetric cpuset - the
static key must remain set, because we still have one asymmetric root domain.

With the above example, this could be done with:

  $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online

Which would result in:

    asym0   asym1
  [       ][    ]
   L  L  B  L  L

When both SMP and asymmetric cpusets are present, all CPUs will observe
sched_asym_cpucapacity being set (it is system-wide), but not all CPUs
observe asymmetry in their sched domain hierarchy:

  per_cpu(sd_asym_cpucapacity, ) == 
  per_cpu(sd_asym_cpucapacity, ) == NULL

Change the simple key enablement to an increment, and decrement the key
counter when destroying domains that cover asymmetric CPUs.

sched/topology: Don't try to build empty sched domains

2019-10-29T08:58:45+00:00

Turns out hotplugging CPUs that are in exclusive cpusets can lead to the
cpuset code feeding empty cpumasks to the sched domain rebuild machinery.

This leads to the following splat:

    Internal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

The faulty line in question is:

  cap = arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpumask_first(cpu_map));

and we're not checking the return value against nr_cpu_ids (we shouldn't
have to!), which leads to the above.

Prevent generate_sched_domains() from returning empty cpumasks, and add
some assertion in build_sched_domains() to scream bloody murder if it
happens again.

The above splat was obtained on my Juno r0 with the following reproducer:

  $ cgcreate -g cpuset:asym
