Let L1 and L2 be two spinlocks.
Let T1 be a task holding L1 and blocked on L2. T1, currently, is the top
waiter of L2.
Let T2 be the task holding L2.
Let T3 be a task trying to acquire L1.
The following events will lead to a state in which the wait queue of L2
isn't empty, but no task actually holds the lock.
T1 T2 T3
== == ==
spin_lock(L1)
| raw_spin_lock(L1->wait_lock)
| rtlock_slowlock_locked(L1)
| | task_blocks_on_rt_mutex(L1, T3)
| | | orig_waiter->lock = L1
| | | orig_waiter->task = T3
| | | raw_spin_unlock(L1->wait_lock)
| | | rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain(T1, L1, L2, orig_waiter, T3)
spin_unlock(L2) | | | |
| rt_mutex_slowunlock(L2) | | | |
| | raw_spin_lock(L2->wait_lock) | | | |
| | wakeup(T1) | | | |
| | raw_spin_unlock(L2->wait_lock) | | | |
| | | | waiter = T1->pi_blocked_on
| | | | waiter == rt_mutex_top_waiter(L2)
| | | | waiter->task == T1
| | | | raw_spin_lock(L2->wait_lock)
| | | | dequeue(L2, waiter)
| | | | update_prio(waiter, T1)
| | | | enqueue(L2, waiter)
| | | | waiter != rt_mutex_top_waiter(L2)
| | | | L2->owner == NULL
| | | | wakeup(T1)
| | | | raw_spin_unlock(L2->wait_lock)
T1 wakes up
T1 != top_waiter(L2)
schedule_rtlock()
If the deadline of T1 is updated before the call to update_prio(), and the
new deadline is greater than the deadline of the second top waiter, then
after the requeue, T1 is no longer the top waiter, and the wrong task is
woken up which will then go back to sleep because it is not the top waiter.
This can be reproduced in PREEMPT_RT with stress-ng:
while true; do
stress-ng --sched deadline --sched-period 1000000000 \
--sched-runtime 800000000 --sched-deadline \
1000000000 --mmapfork 23 -t 20
done
A similar issue was pointed out by Thomas versus the cases where the top
waiter drops out early due to a signal or timeout, which is a general issue
for all regular rtmutex use cases, e.g. futex.
The problematic code is in rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain():
// Save the top waiter before dequeue/enqueue
prerequeue_top_waiter = rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock);
rt_mutex_dequeue(lock, waiter);
waiter_update_prio(waiter, task);
rt_mutex_enqueue(lock, waiter);
// Lock has no owner?
if (!rt_mutex_owner(lock)) {
// Top waiter changed
----> if (prerequeue_top_waiter != rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock))
----> wake_up_state(waiter->task, waiter->wake_state);
This only takes the case into account where @waiter is the new top waiter
due to the requeue operation.
But it fails to handle the case where @waiter is not longer the top
waiter due to the requeue operation.
Ensure that the new top waiter is woken up so in all cases so it can take
over the ownerless lock.

Jan Kara reported the following bug triggering on 6.0.5-rt14 running dbench
on XFS on arm64.
kernel BUG at fs/inode.c:625!

It also affects 6.1-rc7-rt5 and affects a preempt-rt fork of 5.14 so this
is likely a bug that existed forever and only became visible when ARM
support was added to preempt-rt. The same problem does not occur on x86-64
and he also reported that converting sb->s_inode_wblist_lock to
raw_spinlock_t makes the problem disappear indicating that the RT spinlock
variant is the problem.
Which in turn means that RT mutexes on ARM64 and any other weakly ordered
architecture are affected by this independent of RT.
Will Deacon observed:
"I'd be more inclined to be suspicious of the slowpath tbh, as we need to
make sure that we have acquire semantics on all paths where the lock can
be taken. Looking at the rtmutex code, this really isn't obvious to me
-- for example, try_to_take_rt_mutex() appears to be able to return via
the 'takeit' label without acquire semantics and it looks like we might
be relying on the caller's subsequent _unlock_ of the wait_lock for
ordering, but that will give us release semantics which aren't correct."
Sebastian Andrzej Siewior prototyped a fix that does work based on that
comment but it was a little bit overkill and added some fences that should
not be necessary.
The lock owner is updated with an IRQ-safe raw spinlock held, but the
spin_unlock does not provide acquire semantics which are needed when
acquiring a mutex.
Adds the necessary acquire semantics for lock owner updates in the slow path
acquisition and the waiter bit logic.
It successfully completed 10 iterations of the dbench workload while the
vanilla kernel fails on the first iteration.

Lockdep and KMSAN used to play badly together, causing deadlocks when KMSAN instrumentation of lockdep.c called lockdep functions recursively. Looks like this is no more the case, and a kernel can run (yet slower) with both KMSAN and lockdep enabled. This patch should fix false positives on wq_head->lock->dep_map, which KMSAN used to consider uninitialized because of lockdep.c not being instrumented.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that). - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock contention. Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees. Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up. - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down to the single bit level. KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones. - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of memory into THPs. - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to support file/shmem-backed pages. - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and memory-failure - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages. - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced memory consumption. - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song. - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner. - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :( - migration enhancements from Peter Xu - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM drivers, etc. - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn. - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand. - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging activity. - THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng. - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox. - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov. - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia. - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups. - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song. - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.
