* softirq: Fix suspicious RCU usage in __do_softirq()Zqiang10 days1-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the condition "__this_cpu_read(ksoftirqd) == current" is used to invoke rcu_softirq_qs() in ksoftirqd tasks context for non-RT kernels. This works correctly as long as the context is actually task context but this condition is wrong when: - the current task is ksoftirqd - the task is interrupted in a RCU read side critical section - __do_softirq() is invoked on return from interrupt Syzkaller triggered the following scenario: -> finish_task_switch() -> put_task_struct_rcu_user() -> call_rcu(&task->rcu, delayed_put_task_struct) -> __kasan_record_aux_stack() -> pfn_valid() -> rcu_read_lock_sched() <interrupt> __irq_exit_rcu() -> __do_softirq)() -> if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) && __this_cpu_read(ksoftirqd) == current) -> rcu_softirq_qs() -> RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN(lock_is_held(&rcu_sched_lock_map)) The rcu quiescent state is reported in the rcu-read critical section, so the lockdep warning is triggered. Fix this by splitting out the inner working of __do_softirq() into a helper function which takes an argument to distinguish between ksoftirqd task context and interrupted context and invoke it from the relevant call sites with the proper context information and use that for the conditional invocation of rcu_softirq_qs().

* workqueue: Drain BH work items on hot-unplugged CPUsTejun Heo2024-02-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Boqun pointed out that workqueues aren't handling BH work items on offlined CPUs. Unlike tasklet which transfers out the pending tasks from CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD, BH workqueue would just leave them pending which is problematic. Note that this behavior is specific to BH workqueues as the non-BH per-CPU workers just become unbound when the CPU goes offline. This patch fixes the issue by draining the pending BH work items from an offlined CPU from CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD. Because work items carry more context, it's not as easy to transfer the pending work items from one pool to another. Instead, run BH work items which execute the offlined pools on an online CPU. Note that this assumes that no further BH work items will be queued on the offlined CPUs. This assumption is shared with tasklet and should be fine for conversions. However, this issue also exists for per-CPU workqueues which will just keep executing work items queued after CPU offline on unbound workers and workqueue should reject per-CPU and BH work items queued on offline CPUs. This will be addressed separately later.

* workqueue: Implement BH workqueues to eventually replace taskletsTejun Heo2024-02-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws such as the execution code accessing the tasklet item after the execution is complete which can lead to subtle use-after-free in certain usage scenarios and less-developed flush and cancel mechanisms. This patch implements BH workqueues which share the same semantics and features of regular workqueues but execute their work items in the softirq context. As there is always only one BH execution context per CPU, none of the concurrency management mechanisms applies and a BH workqueue can be thought of as a convenience wrapper around softirq. Except for the inability to sleep while executing and lack of max_active adjustments, BH workqueues and work items should behave the same as regular workqueues and work items. Currently, the execution is hooked to tasklet[_hi]. However, the goal is to convert all tasklet users over to BH workqueues. Once the conversion is complete, tasklet can be removed and BH workqueues can directly take over the tasklet softirqs. system_bh[_highpri]_wq are added. As queue-wide flushing doesn't exist in tasklet, all existing tasklet users should be able to use the system BH workqueues without creating their own workqueues. v3: - Add missing interrupt.h include. v2: - Instead of using tasklets, hook directly into its softirq action functions - tasklet[_hi]_action(). This is slightly cheaper and closer to the eventual code structure we want to arrive at. Suggested by Lai. - Lai also pointed out several places which need NULL worker->task handling or can use clarification. Updated.

* sched/core: introduce sched_core_idle_cpu()Cruz Zhao2023-07-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As core scheduling introduced, a new state of idle is defined as force idle, running idle task but nr_running greater than zero. If a cpu is in force idle state, idle_cpu() will return zero. This result makes sense in some scenarios, e.g., load balance, showacpu when dumping, and judge the RCU boost kthread is starving. But this will cause error in other scenarios, e.g., tick_irq_exit(): When force idle, rq->curr == rq->idle but rq->nr_running > 0, results that idle_cpu() returns 0. In function tick_irq_exit(), if idle_cpu() is 0, tick_nohz_irq_exit() will not be called, and ts->idle_active will not become 1, which became 0 in tick_nohz_irq_enter(). ts->idle_sleeptime won't update in function update_ts_time_stats(), if ts->idle_active is 0, which should be 1. And this bug will result that ts->idle_sleeptime is less than the actual value, and finally will result that the idle time in /proc/stat is less than the actual value. To solve this problem, we introduce sched_core_idle_cpu(), which returns 1 when force idle. We audit all users of idle_cpu(), and change idle_cpu() into sched_core_idle_cpu() in function tick_irq_exit(). v2-->v3: Only replace idle_cpu() with sched_core_idle_cpu() in function tick_irq_exit(). And modify the corresponding commit log.

* Revert "softirq: Let ksoftirqd do its job"Paolo Abeni2023-05-091-20/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts the following commits: 4cd13c21b207 ("softirq: Let ksoftirqd do its job") 3c53776e29f8 ("Mark HI and TASKLET softirq synchronous") 1342d8080f61 ("softirq: Don't skip softirq execution when softirq thread is parking") in a single change to avoid known bad intermediate states introduced by a patch series reverting them individually. Due to the mentioned commit, when the ksoftirqd threads take charge of softirq processing, the system can experience high latencies. In the past a few workarounds have been implemented for specific side-effects of the initial ksoftirqd enforcement commit: commit 1ff688209e2e ("watchdog: core: make sure the watchdog_worker is not deferred") commit 8d5755b3f77b ("watchdog: softdog: fire watchdog even if softirqs do not get to run") commit 217f69743681 ("net: busy-poll: allow preemption in sk_busy_loop()") commit 3c53776e29f8 ("Mark HI and TASKLET softirq synchronous") But the latency problem still exists in real-life workloads, see the link below. The reverted commit intended to solve a live-lock scenario that can now be addressed with the NAPI threaded mode, introduced with commit 29863d41bb6e ("net: implement threaded-able napi poll loop support"), which is nowadays in a pretty stable status. While a complete solution to put softirq processing under nice resource control would be preferable, that has proven to be a very hard task. In the short term, remove the main pain point, and also simplify a bit the current softirq implementation.

* softirq: Add trace points for tasklet entry/exitLingutla Chandrasekhar2023-04-151-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tasklets are supposed to finish their work quickly and should not block the current running process, but it is not guaranteed that they do so. Currently softirq_entry/exit can be used to analyse the total tasklets execution time, but that's not helpful to track individual tasklets execution time. That makes it hard to identify tasklet functions, which take more time than expected. Add tasklet_entry/exit trace point support to track individual tasklet execution.

* smp: Make softirq handling RT safe in flush_smp_call_function_queue()Sebastian Andrzej Siewior2022-05-011-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | flush_smp_call_function_queue() invokes do_softirq() which is not available on PREEMPT_RT. flush_smp_call_function_queue() is invoked from the idle task and the migration task with preemption or interrupts disabled. So RT kernels cannot process soft interrupts in that context as that has to acquire 'sleeping spinlocks' which is not possible with preemption or interrupts disabled and forbidden from the idle task anyway. The currently known SMP function call which raises a soft interrupt is in the block layer, but this functionality is not enabled on RT kernels due to latency and performance reasons. RT could wake up ksoftirqd unconditionally, but this wants to be avoided if there were soft interrupts pending already when this is invoked in the context of the migration task. The migration task might have preempted a threaded interrupt handler which raised a soft interrupt, but did not reach the local_bh_enable() to process it. The "running" ksoftirqd might prevent the handling in the interrupt thread context which is causing latency issues. Add a new function which handles this case explicitely for RT and falls back to do_softirq() on !RT kernels. In the RT case this warns when one of the flushed SMP function calls raised a soft interrupt so this can be investigated.

* timers/nohz: Last resort update jiffies on nohz_full IRQ entryFrederic Weisbecker2021-12-021-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When at least one CPU runs in nohz_full mode, a dedicated timekeeper CPU is guaranteed to stay online and to never stop its tick. Meanwhile on some rare case, the dedicated timekeeper may be running with interrupts disabled for a while, such as in stop_machine. If jiffies stop being updated, a nohz_full CPU may end up endlessly programming the next tick in the past, taking the last jiffies update monotonic timestamp as a stale base, resulting in an tick storm. Here is a scenario where it matters: 0) CPU 0 is the timekeeper and CPU 1 a nohz_full CPU. 1) A stop machine callback is queued to execute somewhere. 2) CPU 0 reaches MULTI_STOP_DISABLE_IRQ while CPU 1 is still in MULTI_STOP_PREPARE. Hence CPU 0 can't do its timekeeping duty. CPU 1 can still take IRQs. 3) CPU 1 receives an IRQ which queues a timer callback one jiffy forward. 4) On IRQ exit, CPU 1 schedules the tick one jiffy forward, taking last_jiffies_update as a base. But last_jiffies_update hasn't been updated for 2 jiffies since the timekeeper has interrupts disabled. 5) clockevents_program_event(), which relies on ktime_get(), observes that the expiration is in the past and therefore programs the min delta event on the clock. 6) The tick fires immediately, goto 3) 7) Tick storm, the nohz_full CPU is drown and takes ages to reach MULTI_STOP_DISABLE_IRQ, which is the only way out of this situation. Solve this with unconditionally updating jiffies if the value is stale on nohz_full IRQ entry. IRQs and other disturbances are expected to be rare enough on nohz_full for the unconditional call to ktime_get() to actually matter. Reported-by: Paul E.

* | tasklets: Prevent tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() deadlock on RTThomas Gleixner2021-03-171-1/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() spin waits for the TASKLET_STATE_SCHED bit in the tasklet state to be cleared. This works on !RT nicely because the corresponding execution can only happen on a different CPU. On RT softirq processing is preemptible, therefore a task preempting the softirq processing thread can spin forever. Prevent this by invoking local_bh_disable()/enable() inside the loop. In case that the softirq processing thread was preempted by the current task, current will block on the local lock which yields the CPU to the preempted softirq processing thread. If the tasklet is processed on a different CPU then the local_bh_disable()/enable() pair is just a waste of processor cycles.

This is convenient to decide to which index the cputime to account is dispatched. Unfortunately it prevents tick_irq_enter() from being called under HARDIRQ_OFFSET because tick_irq_enter() has to be called before the IRQ entry accounting due to the necessary clock catch up. As a result we don't benefit from appropriate lockdep coverage on tick_irq_enter(). To prepare for fixing this, move the IRQ entry cputime accounting after the preempt offset is incremented. This requires the cputime dispatch code to handle the extra offset.

The tasklet subsystem remains one which passes an arbitrary unsigned long to the callback function. This has several problems: - This keeps an extra field for storing the argument in each tasklet data structure, it bloats the tasklet_struct structure with a redundant .data field - No type checking can be performed on this argument. Instead of using container_of() like other callback subsystems, it forces callbacks to do explicit type cast of the unsigned long argument into the required object type. - Buffer overflows can overwrite the .func and the .data field, so an attacker can easily overwrite the function and its first argument to whatever it wants. Add a new tasklet initialization API, via DECLARE_TASKLET() and tasklet_setup(), which will replace the existing ones. This work is greatly inspired by the timer_struct conversion series, see commit e99e88a9d2b0 ("treewide: setup_timer() -> timer_setup()") To avoid problems with both -Wcast-function-type (which is enabled in the kernel via -Wextra is several subsystems), and with mismatched function prototypes when build with Control Flow Integrity enabled, this adds the "use_callback" member to let the tasklet caller choose which union member to call through. Once all old API uses are removed, this and the .data member will be removed as well. (On 64-bit this does not grow the struct size as the new member fills the hole after atomic_t, which is also "int" sized.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a CPU is unplugged the kernel threads of this CPU are parked (see smpboot_park_threads()). kthread_park() is used to mark each thread as parked and wake it up, so it can complete the process of parking itselfs (see smpboot_thread_fn()). If local softirqs are pending on interrupt exit invoke_softirq() is called to process the softirqs, however it skips processing when the softirq kernel thread of the local CPU is scheduled to run. The softirq kthread is one of the threads that is parked when a CPU is unplugged. Parking the kthread wakes it up, however only to complete the parking process, not to process the pending softirqs. Hence processing of softirqs at the end of an interrupt is skipped, but not done elsewhere, which can result in warnings about pending softirqs when a CPU is unplugged: /sys/devices/system/cpu # echo 0 > cpu4/online [ ... ] NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 [ ... ] NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 202 [ ... ] CPU4: shutdown [ ... ] psci: CPU4 killed.

* | rcu: Define RCU-bh update API in terms of RCUPaul E. McKenney2018-08-301-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the main RCU API knows about softirq disabling and softirq's quiescent states, the RCU-bh update code can be dispensed with. This commit therefore removes the RCU-bh update-side implementation and defines RCU-bh's update-side API in terms of that of either RCU-preempt or RCU-sched, depending on the setting of the CONFIG_PREEMPT Kconfig option. In kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y this has the knock-on effect of reducing by one the number of rcuo kthreads per CPU. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* | rcu: Apply RCU-bh QSes to RCU-sched and RCU-preempt when safePaul E. McKenney2018-08-301-0/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One necessary step towards consolidating the three flavors of RCU is to make sure that the resulting consolidated "one flavor to rule them all" correctly handles networking denial-of-service attacks. One thing that allows RCU-bh to do so is that __do_softirq() invokes rcu_bh_qs() every so often, and so something similar has to happen for consolidated RCU. This must be done carefully. For example, if a preemption-disabled region of code takes an interrupt which does softirq processing before returning, consolidated RCU must ignore the resulting rcu_bh_qs() invocations -- preemption is still disabled, and that means an RCU reader for the consolidated flavor. This commit therefore creates a new rcu_softirq_qs() that is called only from the ksoftirqd task, thus avoiding the interrupted-a-preempted-region problem. This new rcu_softirq_qs() function invokes rcu_sched_qs(), rcu_preempt_qs(), and rcu_preempt_deferred_qs(). The latter call handles any deferred quiescent states. Note that __do_softirq() still invokes rcu_bh_qs(). It will continue to do so until a later stage of cleanup when the RCU-bh flavor is removed. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* nohz: Fix missing tick reprogram when interrupting an inline softirqFrederic Weisbecker2018-08-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The full nohz tick is reprogrammed in irq_exit() only if the exit is not in a nesting interrupt. This stands as an optimization: whether a hardirq or a softirq is interrupted, the tick is going to be reprogrammed when necessary at the end of the inner interrupt, with even potential new updates on the timer queue. When soft interrupts are interrupted, it's assumed that they are executing on the tail of an interrupt return. In that case tick_nohz_irq_exit() is called after softirq processing to take care of the tick reprogramming. But the assumption is wrong: softirqs can be processed inline as well, ie: outside of an interrupt, like in a call to local_bh_enable() or from ksoftirqd. Inline softirqs don't reprogram the tick once they are done, as opposed to interrupt tail softirq processing. So if a tick interrupts an inline softirq processing, the next timer will neither be reprogrammed from the interrupting tick's irq_exit() nor after the interrupted softirq processing. This situation may leave the tick unprogrammed while timers are armed. To fix this, simply keep reprogramming the tick even if a softirq has been interrupted. That can be optimized further, but for now correctness is more important. Note that new timers enqueued in nohz_full mode after a softirq gets interrupted will still be handled just fine through self-IPIs triggered by the timer code.

* Mark HI and TASKLET softirq synchronousLinus Torvalds2018-07-171-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Way back in 4.9, we committed 4cd13c21b207 ("softirq: Let ksoftirqd do its job"), and ever since we've had small nagging issues with it. For example, we've had: 1ff688209e2e ("watchdog: core: make sure the watchdog_worker is not deferred") 8d5755b3f77b ("watchdog: softdog: fire watchdog even if softirqs do not get to run") 217f69743681 ("net: busy-poll: allow preemption in sk_busy_loop()") all of which worked around some of the effects of that commit. The DVB people have also complained that the commit causes excessive USB URB latencies, which seems to be due to the USB code using tasklets to schedule USB traffic. This seems to be an issue mainly when already living on the edge, but waiting for ksoftirqd to handle it really does seem to cause excessive latencies. Now Hanna Hawa reports that this issue isn't just limited to USB URB and DVB, but also causes timeout problems for the Marvell SoC team: "I'm facing kernel panic issue while running raid 5 on sata disks connected to Macchiatobin (Marvell community board with Armada-8040 SoC with 4 ARMv8 cores of CA72) Raid 5 built with Marvell DMA engine and async_tx mechanism (ASYNC_TX_DMA [=y]); the DMA driver (mv_xor_v2) uses a tasklet to clean the done descriptors from the queue" The latency problem causes a panic: mv_xor_v2 f0400000.xor: dma_sync_wait: timeout! Kernel panic - not syncing: async_tx_quiesce: DMA error waiting for transaction We've discussed simply just reverting the original commit entirely, and also much more involved solutions (with per-softirq threads etc). This patch is intentionally stupid and fairly limited, because the issue still remains, and the other solutions either got sidetracked or had other issues. We should probably also consider the timer softirqs to be synchronous and not be delayed to ksoftirqd (since they were the issue with the earlier watchdog problems), but that should be done as a separate patch. This does only the tasklet cases.
