* locking/rtmutex: Fix task->pi_waiters integrityPeter Zijlstra2023-07-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Henry reported that rt_mutex_adjust_prio_check() has an ordering problem and puts the lie to the comment in [7]. Sharing the sort key between lock->waiters and owner->pi_waiters *does* create problems, since unlike what the comment claims, holding [L] is insufficient. Notably, consider: A / \ M1 M2 | | B C That is, task A owns both M1 and M2, B and C block on them. In this case a concurrent chain walk (B & C) will modify their resp. sort keys in [7] while holding M1->wait_lock and M2->wait_lock. So holding [L] is meaningless, they're different Ls. This then gives rise to a race condition between [7] and [11], where the requeue of pi_waiters will observe an inconsistent tree order. B C (holds M1->wait_lock, (holds M2->wait_lock, holds B->pi_lock) holds A->pi_lock) [7] waiter_update_prio(); ... [8] raw_spin_unlock(B->pi_lock); ... [10] raw_spin_lock(A->pi_lock); [11] rt_mutex_enqueue_pi(); // observes inconsistent A->pi_waiters // tree order Fixing this means either extending the range of the owner lock from [10-13] to [6-13], with the immediate problem that this means [6-8] hold both blocked and owner locks, or duplicating the sort key. Since the locking in chain walk is horrible enough without having to consider pi_lock nesting rules, duplicate the sort key instead. By giving each tree their own sort key, the above race becomes harmless, if C sees B at the old location, then B will correct things (if they need correcting) when it walks up the chain and reaches A.

* rtmutex: Add acquire semantics for rtmutex lock acquisition slow pathMel Gorman2022-12-121-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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! Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT_RT SMP CPU: 11 PID: 6611 Comm: dbench Tainted: G E 6.0.0-rt14-rt+ #1 pc : clear_inode+0xa0/0xc0 lr : clear_inode+0x38/0xc0 Call trace: clear_inode+0xa0/0xc0 evict+0x160/0x180 iput+0x154/0x240 do_unlinkat+0x184/0x300 __arm64_sys_unlinkat+0x48/0xc0 el0_svc_common.constprop.4+0xe4/0x2c0 do_el0_svc+0xac/0x100 el0_svc+0x78/0x200 el0t_64_sync_handler+0x9c/0xc0 el0t_64_sync+0x19c/0x1a0 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.

* locking/rtmutex: Add rt_mutex_lock_nest_lock() and rt_mutex_lock_killable().Sebastian Andrzej Siewior2021-12-041-4/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The locking selftest for ww-mutex expects to operate directly on the base-mutex which becomes a rtmutex on PREEMPT_RT. Add a rtmutex based implementation of mutex_lock_nest_lock() and mutex_lock_killable() named rt_mutex_lock_nest_lock() abd rt_mutex_lock_killable().

* locking/rtmutex: Prevent lockdep false positive with PI futexesThomas Gleixner2021-08-171-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On PREEMPT_RT the futex hashbucket spinlock becomes 'sleeping' and rtmutex based. That causes a lockdep false positive because some of the futex functions invoke spin_unlock(&hb->lock) with the wait_lock of the rtmutex associated to the pi_futex held. spin_unlock() in turn takes wait_lock of the rtmutex on which the spinlock is based which makes lockdep notice a lock recursion. Give the futex/rtmutex wait_lock a separate key.
