* watchdog/core: remove sysctl handlers from public headerThomas Weißschuh2024-03-121-10/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | The functions are only used in the file where they are defined. Remove them from the header and make them static. Also guard proc_soft_watchdog with a #define-guard as it is not used otherwise.

* watchdog: if panicking and we dumped everything, don't re-enable dumpingDouglas Anderson2023-12-291-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If, as part of handling a hardlockup or softlockup, we've already dumped all CPUs and we're just about to panic, don't reenable dumping and give some other CPU a chance to hop in there and add some confusing logs right as the panic is happening.

* watchdog/hardlockup: use printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() to serialize reportingDouglas Anderson2023-12-291-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If two CPUs end up reporting a hardlockup at the same time then their logs could get interleaved which is hard to read. The interleaving problem was especially bad with the "perf" hardlockup detector where the locked up CPU is always the same as the running CPU and we end up in show_regs(). show_regs() has no inherent serialization so we could mix together two crawls if two hardlockups happened at the same time (and if we didn't have `sysctl_hardlockup_all_cpu_backtrace` set). With this change we'll fully serialize hardlockups when using the "perf" hardlockup detector. The interleaving problem was less bad with the "buddy" hardlockup detector. With "buddy" we always end up calling `trigger_single_cpu_backtrace(cpu)` on some CPU other than the running one. trigger_single_cpu_backtrace() always at least serializes the individual stack crawls because it eventually uses printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave(). Unfortunately the fact that trigger_single_cpu_backtrace() eventually calls printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() (on a different CPU) means that we have to drop the "lock" before calling it and we can't fully serialize all printouts associated with a given hardlockup. However, we still do get the advantage of serializing the output of print_modules() and print_irqtrace_events(). Aside from serializing hardlockups from each other, this change also has the advantage of serializing hardlockups and softlockups from each other if they happen to happen at the same time since they are both using the same "lock". Even though nobody is expected to hang while holding the lock associated with printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave(), out of an abundance of caution, we don't call printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() until after we print out about the hardlockup. This makes extra sure that, even if printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() somehow never runs we at least print that we saw the hardlockup. This is different than the choice made for softlockup because hardlockup is really our last resort.

* watchdog/softlockup: use printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() to serialize reportingDouglas Anderson2023-12-291-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of introducing a spinlock, use printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() and printk_cpu_sync_put_irqrestore() to serialize softlockup reporting. Alone this doesn't have any real advantage over the spinlock, but this will allow us to use the same function in a future change to also serialize hardlockup crawls. NOTE: for the most part this serialization is important because we often end up in the show_regs() path and that has no built-in serialization if there are multiple callers at once. However, even in the case where we end up in the dump_stack() path this still has some advantages because the stack will be guaranteed to be together in the logs with the lockup message with no interleaving. NOTE: the fact that printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() is allowed to be called multiple times on the same CPU is important here. Specifically we hold the "lock" while calling dump_stack() which also gets the same "lock". This is explicitly documented to be OK and means we don't need to introduce a variant of dump_stack() that doesn't grab the lock.

* watchdog/hardlockup: adopt softlockup logic avoiding double-dumpsDouglas Anderson2023-12-291-7/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "watchdog: Better handling of concurrent lockups". When we get multiple lockups at roughly the same time, the output in the kernel logs can be very confusing since the reports about the lockups end up interleaved in the logs. There is some code in the kernel to try to handle this but it wasn't that complete. Li Zhe recently made this a bit better for softlockups (specifically for the case where `kernel.softlockup_all_cpu_backtrace` is not set) in commit 9d02330abd3e ("softlockup: serialized softlockup's log"), but that only handled softlockup reports. Hardlockup reports still had similar issues. This series also has a small fix to avoid dumping all stacks a second time in the case of a panic. This is a bit unrelated to the interleaving fixes but it does also improve the clarity of lockup reports. This patch (of 4): The hardlockup detector and softlockup detector both have the ability to dump the stack of all CPUs (`kernel.hardlockup_all_cpu_backtrace` and `kernel.softlockup_all_cpu_backtrace`). Both detectors also have some logic to attempt to avoid interleaving printouts if two CPUs were trying to do dumps of all CPUs at the same time. However: - The hardlockup detector's logic still allowed interleaving some information. Specifically another CPU could print modules and dump the stack of the locked CPU at the same time we were dumping all CPUs. - In the case where `kernel.hardlockup_panic` was set in addition to `kernel.hardlockup_all_cpu_backtrace`, when two CPUs both detected hardlockups at the same time the second CPU could call panic() while the first was still dumping stacks. This was especially bad if the locked up CPU wasn't responding to the request for a backtrace since the function nmi_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() can wait up to 10 seconds. Let's resolve this by adopting the softlockup logic in the hardlockup handler. NOTES: - As part of this, one might think that we should make a helper function that both the hard and softlockup detectors call. This turns out not to be super trivial since it would have to be parameterized quite a bit since there are separate global variables controlling each lockup detector and they print log messages that are just different enough that it would be a pain. We probably don't want to change the messages that are printed without good reason to avoid throwing log parsers for a loop. - One might also think that it would be a good idea to have the hardlockup and softlockup detector use the same global variable to prevent interleaving. This would make sure that softlockups and hardlockups can't interleave each other. That _almost_ works but has a dangerous flaw if `kernel.hardlockup_panic` is not the same as `kernel.softlockup_panic` because we might skip a call to panic() if one type of lockup was detected at the same time as another.

* softlockup: serialized softlockup's logLi Zhe2023-12-101-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If multiple CPUs trigger softlockup at the same time with 'softlockup_all_cpu_backtrace=0', the softlockup's logs will appear staggeredly in dmesg, which will affect the viewing of the logs for developer. Since the code path for outputting softlockup logs is not a kernel hotspot and the performance requirements for the code are not strict, locks are used to serialize the softlockup log output to improve the readability of the logs.

* watchdog: move softlockup_panic back to early_paramKrister Johansen2023-11-011-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting softlockup_panic from do_sysctl_args() causes it to take effect later in boot. The lockup detector is enabled before SMP is brought online, but do_sysctl_args runs afterwards. If a user wants to set softlockup_panic on boot and have it trigger should a softlockup occur during onlining of the non-boot processors, they could do this prior to commit f117955a2255 ("kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliases"). However, after this commit the value of softlockup_panic is set too late to be of help for this type of problem. Restore the prior behavior.

* nmi_backtrace: allow excluding an arbitrary CPUDouglas Anderson2023-08-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The APIs that allow backtracing across CPUs have always had a way to exclude the current CPU. This convenience means callers didn't need to find a place to allocate a CPU mask just to handle the common case. Let's extend the API to take a CPU ID to exclude instead of just a boolean. This isn't any more complex for the API to handle and allows the hardlockup detector to exclude a different CPU (the one it already did a trace for) without needing to find space for a CPU mask. Arguably, this new API also encourages safer behavior. Specifically if the caller wants to avoid tracing the current CPU (maybe because they already traced the current CPU) this makes it more obvious to the caller that they need to make sure that the current CPU ID can't change.

* watchdog/hardlockup: make HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG sparc64-specificPetr Mladek2023-06-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are several hardlockup detector implementations and several Kconfig values which allow selection and build of the preferred one. CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR was introduced by the commit 23637d477c1f53acb ("lockup_detector: Introduce CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR") in v2.6.36. It was a preparation step for introducing the new generic perf hardlockup detector. The existing arch-specific variants did not support the to-be-created generic build configurations, sysctl interface, etc. This distinction was made explicit by the commit 4a7863cc2eb5f98 ("x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and rely on CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR") in v2.6.38. CONFIG_HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG was introduced by the commit d314d74c695f967e105 ("nmi watchdog: do not use cpp symbol in Kconfig") in v3.4-rc1. It replaced the above mentioned ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG. At that time, it was still used by three architectures, namely blackfin, mn10300, and sparc. The support for blackfin and mn10300 architectures has been completely dropped some time ago. And sparc is the only architecture with the historic NMI watchdog at the moment. And the old sparc implementation is really special. It is always built on sparc64. It used to be always enabled until the commit 7a5c8b57cec93196b ("sparc: implement watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disable") added in v4.10-rc1. There are only few locations where the sparc64 NMI watchdog interacts with the generic hardlockup detectors code: + implements arch_touch_nmi_watchdog() which is called from the generic touch_nmi_watchdog() + implements watchdog_hardlockup_enable()/disable() to support /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog + is always preferred over other generic watchdogs, see CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR + includes asm/nmi.h into linux/nmi.h because some sparc-specific functions are needed in sparc-specific code which includes only linux/nmi.h. The situation became more complicated after the commit 05a4a95279311c3 ("kernel/watchdog: split up config options") and commit 2104180a53698df5 ("powerpc/64s: implement arch-specific hardlockup watchdog") in v4.13-rc1. They introduced HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. It was used for powerpc specific hardlockup detector. It was compatible with the perf one regarding the general boot, sysctl, and programming interfaces. HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH was defined as a superset of HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG. It made some sense because all arch-specific detectors had some common requirements, namely: + implemented arch_touch_nmi_watchdog() + included asm/nmi.h into linux/nmi.h + defined the default value for /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog But it actually has made things pretty complicated when the generic buddy hardlockup detector was added. Before the generic perf detector was newer supported together with an arch-specific one. But the buddy detector could work on any SMP system. It means that an architecture could support both the arch-specific and buddy detector. As a result, there are few tricky dependencies. For example, CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR depends on: ((HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF || HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_BUDDY) && !HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG) || HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH The problem is that the very special sparc implementation is defined as: HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG && !HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH Another problem is that the meaning of HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is far from clear without reading understanding the history. Make the logic less tricky and more self-explanatory by making HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG specific for the sparc64 implementation. And rename it to HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_SPARC64. Note that HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PREFER_BUDDY, HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF, and HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_BUDDY may conflict only with HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. They depend on HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR and it is not longer enabled when HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is set.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | watchdog_hardlockup_probe() Right now there is one arch (sparc64) that selects HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG without selecting HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. Because of that one architecture, we have some special case code in the watchdog core to handle the fact that watchdog_hardlockup_probe() isn't implemented. Let's implement watchdog_hardlockup_probe() for sparc64 and get rid of the special case. As a side effect of doing this, code inspection tells us that we could fix a minor bug where the system won't properly realize that NMI watchdogs are disabled. Specifically, on powerpc if CONFIG_PPC_WATCHDOG is turned off the arch might still select CONFIG_HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH which selects CONFIG_HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG. Since CONFIG_PPC_WATCHDOG was off then nothing will override the "weak" watchdog_hardlockup_probe() and we'll fallback to looking at CONFIG_HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "watchdog: Cleanup / fixes after buddy series v5 reviews". This patch series attempts to finish resolving the feedback received from Petr Mladek on the v5 series I posted. Probably the only thing that wasn't fully as clean as Petr requested was the Kconfig stuff. I couldn't find a better way to express it without a more major overhaul. In the very least, I renamed "NON_ARCH" to "PERF_OR_BUDDY" in the hopes that will make it marginally better. Nothing in this series is terribly critical and even the bugfixes are small. However, it does cleanup a few things that were pointed out in review. This patch (of 10): The permissions for the kernel.nmi_watchdog sysctl have always been set at compile time despite the fact that a watchdog can fail to probe. Let's fix this and set the permissions based on whether the hardlockup detector actually probed.

* watchdog/perf: adapt the watchdog_perf interface for async modelLecopzer Chen2023-06-091-1/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When lockup_detector_init()->watchdog_hardlockup_probe(), PMU may be not ready yet. E.g. on arm64, PMU is not ready until device_initcall(armv8_pmu_driver_init). And it is deeply integrated with the driver model and cpuhp. Hence it is hard to push this initialization before smp_init(). But it is easy to take an opposite approach and try to initialize the watchdog once again later. The delayed probe is called using workqueues. It need to allocate memory and must be proceed in a normal context. The delayed probe is able to use if watchdog_hardlockup_probe() returns non-zero which means the return code returned when PMU is not ready yet. Provide an API - lockup_detector_retry_init() for anyone who needs to delayed init lockup detector if they had ever failed at lockup_detector_init(). The original assumption is: nobody should use delayed probe after lockup_detector_check() which has __init attribute. That is, anyone uses this API must call between lockup_detector_init() and lockup_detector_check(), and the caller must have __init attribute Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230519101840.v5.16.If4ad5dd5d09fb1309cebf8bcead4b6a5a7758ca7@changeid Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Co-developed-by: Pingfan Liu <kernelfans@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Pingfan Liu <kernelfans@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Lecopzer Chen <lecopzer.chen@mediatek.com> Signed-off-by: Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org> Suggested-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Chen-Yu Tsai <wens@csie.org> Cc: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Cc: Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Cc: "David S.

* watchdog/hardlockup: detect hard lockups using secondary (buddy) CPUsDouglas Anderson2023-06-091-7/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement a hardlockup detector that doesn't doesn't need any extra arch-specific support code to detect lockups. Instead of using something arch-specific we will use the buddy system, where each CPU watches out for another one. Specifically, each CPU will use its softlockup hrtimer to check that the next CPU is processing hrtimer interrupts by verifying that a counter is increasing. NOTE: unlike the other hard lockup detectors, the buddy one can't easily show what's happening on the CPU that locked up just by doing a simple backtrace. It relies on some other mechanism in the system to get information about the locked up CPUs. This could be support for NMI backtraces like [1], it could be a mechanism for printing the PC of locked CPUs at panic time like [2] / [3], or it could be something else. Even though that means we still rely on arch-specific code, this arch-specific code seems to often be implemented even on architectures that don't have a hardlockup detector. This style of hardlockup detector originated in some downstream Android trees and has been rebased on / carried in ChromeOS trees for quite a long time for use on arm and arm64 boards. Historically on these boards we've leveraged mechanism [2] / [3] to get information about hung CPUs, but we could move to [1]. Although the original motivation for the buddy system was for use on systems without an arch-specific hardlockup detector, it can still be useful to use even on systems that _do_ have an arch-specific hardlockup detector. On x86, for instance, there is a 24-part patch series [4] in progress switching the arch-specific hard lockup detector from a scarce perf counter to a less-scarce hardware resource. Potentially the buddy system could be a simpler alternative to free up the perf counter but still get hard lockup detection. Overall, pros (+) and cons (-) of the buddy system compared to an arch-specific hardlockup detector (which might be implemented using perf): + The buddy system is usable on systems that don't have an arch-specific hardlockup detector, like arm32 and arm64 (though it's being worked on for arm64 [5]). + The buddy system may free up scarce hardware resources. + If a CPU totally goes out to lunch (can't process NMIs) the buddy system could still detect the problem (though it would be unlikely to be able to get a stack trace). + The buddy system uses the same timer function to pet the hardlockup detector on the running CPU as it uses to detect hardlockups on other CPUs. Compared to other hardlockup detectors, this means it generates fewer interrupts and thus is likely better able to let CPUs stay idle longer. - If all CPUs are hard locked up at the same time the buddy system can't detect it. - If we don't have SMP we can't use the buddy system. - The buddy system needs an arch-specific mechanism (possibly NMI backtrace) to get info about the locked up CPU.

* watchdog/hardlockup: have the perf hardlockup use __weak functions more cleanlyDouglas Anderson2023-06-091-12/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fact that there watchdog_hardlockup_enable(), watchdog_hardlockup_disable(), and watchdog_hardlockup_probe() are declared __weak means that the configured hardlockup detector can define non-weak versions of those functions if it needs to. Instead of doing this, the perf hardlockup detector hooked itself into the default __weak implementation, which was a bit awkward. Clean this up. From comments, it looks as if the original design was done because the __weak function were expected to implemented by the architecture and not by the configured hardlockup detector. This got awkward when we tried to add the buddy lockup detector which was not arch-specific but wanted to hook into those same functions. This is not expected to have any functional impact.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In preparation for the buddy hardlockup detector, which wants the same petting logic as the current perf hardlockup detector, move the code to watchdog.c. While doing this, rename the global variable to match others nearby. As part of this change we have to change the code to account for the fact that the CPU we're running on might be different than the one we're checking. Currently the code in watchdog.c is guarded by CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF, which makes this change seem silly. However, a future patch will change this.

* watchdog/hardlockup: add a "cpu" param to watchdog_hardlockup_check()Douglas Anderson2023-06-091-20/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In preparation for the buddy hardlockup detector where the CPU checking for lockup might not be the currently running CPU, add a "cpu" parameter to watchdog_hardlockup_check(). As part of this change, make hrtimer_interrupts an atomic_t since now the CPU incrementing the value and the CPU reading the value might be different. Technially this could also be done with just READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE, but atomic_t feels a little cleaner in this case. While hrtimer_interrupts is made atomic_t, we change hrtimer_interrupts_saved from "unsigned long" to "int". The "int" is needed to match the data type backing atomic_t for hrtimer_interrupts. Even if this changes us from 64-bits to 32-bits (which I don't think is true for most compilers), it doesn't really matter. All we ever do is increment it every few seconds and compare it to an old value so 32-bits is fine (even 16-bits would be). The "signed" vs "unsigned" also doesn't matter for simple equality comparisons. hrtimer_interrupts_saved is _not_ switched to atomic_t nor even accessed with READ_ONCE / WRITE_ONCE. The hrtimer_interrupts_saved is always consistently accessed with the same CPU. NOTE: with the upcoming "buddy" detector there is one special case. When a CPU goes offline/online then we can change which CPU is the one to consistently access a given instance of hrtimer_interrupts_saved. We still can't end up with a partially updated hrtimer_interrupts_saved, however, because we end up petting all affected CPUs to make sure the new and old CPU can't end up somehow read/write hrtimer_interrupts_saved at the same time.

* watchdog/hardlockup: move perf hardlockup checking/panic to common watchdog.cDouglas Anderson2023-06-091-20/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The perf hardlockup detector works by looking at interrupt counts and seeing if they change from run to run. The interrupt counts are managed by the common watchdog code via its watchdog_timer_fn(). Currently the API between the perf detector and the common code is a function: is_hardlockup(). When the hard lockup detector sees that function return true then it handles printing out debug info and inducing a panic if necessary. Let's change the API a little bit in preparation for the buddy hardlockup detector. The buddy hardlockup detector wants to print nearly the same debug info and have nearly the same panic behavior. That means we want to move all that code to the common file. For now, the code in the common file will only be there if the perf hardlockup detector is enabled, but eventually it will be selected by a common config. Right now, this _just_ moves the code from the perf detector file to the common file and changes the names. It doesn't make the changes that the buddy hardlockup detector will need and doesn't do any style cleanups. A future patch will do cleanup to make it more obvious what changed. With the above, we no longer have any callers of is_hardlockup() outside of the "watchdog.c" file, so we can remove it from the header, make it static, and move it to the same "#ifdef" block as our new watchdog_hardlockup_check(). While doing this, it can be noted that even if no hardlockup detectors were configured the existing code used to still have the code for counting/checking "hrtimer_interrupts" even if the perf hardlockup detector wasn't configured. We didn't need to do that, so move all the "hrtimer_interrupts" counting to only be there if the perf hardlockup detector is configured as well. This change is expected to be a no-op.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some circumstances it may be interesting to reconfigure the watchdog from inside the kernel. On PowerPC, this may helpful before and after a LPAR migration (LPM) is initiated, because it implies some latencies, watchdog, and especially NMI watchdog is expected to be triggered during this operation. Reconfiguring the watchdog with a factor, would prevent it to happen too frequently during LPM. Rename lockup_detector_reconfigure() as __lockup_detector_reconfigure() and create a new function lockup_detector_reconfigure() calling __lockup_detector_reconfigure() under the protection of watchdog_mutex.

The testing of 5.19 release candidates revealed missing synchronization between early and regular console functionality. It would be possible to start the console kthreads later as a workaround. But it is clear that console lock serialized console drivers between each other. It opens a big area of possible problems that were not considered by people involved in the development and review. printk() is crucial for debugging kernel issues and console output is very important part of it. The number of consoles is huge and a proper review would take some time. As a result it need to be reverted for 5.19.

* | printk: add functions to prefer direct printingJohn Ogness2022-04-221-0/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once kthread printing is available, console printing will no longer occur in the context of the printk caller. However, there are some special contexts where it is desirable for the printk caller to directly print out kernel messages. Using pr_flush() to wait for threaded printers is only possible if the caller is in a sleepable context and the kthreads are active. That is not always the case. Introduce printk_prefer_direct_enter() and printk_prefer_direct_exit() functions to explicitly (and globally) activate/deactivate preferred direct console printing. The term "direct console printing" refers to printing to all enabled consoles from the context of the printk caller. The term "prefer" is used because this type of printing is only best effort. If the console is currently locked or other printers are already actively printing, the printk caller will need to rely on the other contexts to handle the printing. This preferred direct printing is how all printing has been handled until now (unless it was explicitly deferred). When kthread printing is introduced, there may be some unanticipated problems due to kthreads being unable to flush important messages. In order to minimize such risks, preferred direct printing is activated for the primary important messages when the system experiences general types of major errors. These are: - emergency reboot/shutdown - cpu and rcu stalls - hard and soft lockups - hung tasks - warn - sysrq Note that since kthread printing does not yet exist, no behavior changes result from this commit. This is only implementing the counter and marking the various places where preferred direct printing is active.

To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just care about the core logic of proc sysctl. So, move the watchdog syscl interface to watchdog.c. Use register_sysctl() to register the sysctl interface to avoid merge conflicts when different features modify sysctl.c at the same time.

* watchdog: reliable handling of timestampsPetr Mladek2021-05-221-14/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 9bf3bc949f8a ("watchdog: cleanup handling of false positives") tried to handle a virtual host stopped by the host a more straightforward and cleaner way. But it introduced a risk of false softlockup reports. The virtual host might be stopped at any time, for example between kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() and is_softlockup(). As a result, is_softlockup() might read the updated jiffies and detects a softlockup. A solution might be to put back kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() after is_softlockup() and detect it. But it would put back the cycle that complicates the logic. In fact, the handling of all the timestamps is not reliable. The code does not guarantee when and how many times the timestamps are read. For example, "period_ts" might be touched anytime also from NMI and re-read in is_softlockup(). It works just by chance. Fix all the problems by making the code even more explicit. 1. Make sure that "now" and "period_ts" timestamps are read only once. They might be changed at anytime by NMI or when the virtual guest is stopped by the host. Note that "now" timestamp does this implicitly because "jiffies" is marked volatile. 2. "now" time must be read first. The state of "period_ts" will decide whether it will be used or the period will get restarted. 3. kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() must be called before reading "period_ts". It touches the variable when the guest was stopped. As a result, "now" timestamp is used only when the watchdog was not touched and the guest not stopped in the meantime. "period_ts" is restarted in all other situations.

It solved a problem when the watchdog was touched in an atomic context, the timer callback was proceed right after releasing interrupts, and the local clock has not been updated yet. In this case, sched_clock_tick() was called in watchdog_timer_fn() before updating the timer. So far so good. Later commit 5d1c0f4a80a6 ("watchdog: add check for suspended vm in softlockup detector") added two kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() calls. They touch the watchdog when the guest has been sleeping. The code makes my head spin around. Scenario 1: + guest did sleep: + PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED is set + 1st watchdog_timer_fn() invocation: + the watchdog is not touched yet + is_softlockup() returns too big delay + kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused(): + clear PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED + call touch_softlockup_watchdog_sync() + set SOFTLOCKUP_DELAY_REPORT + set softlockup_touch_sync + return from the timer callback + 2nd watchdog_timer_fn() invocation: + call sched_clock_tick() even though it is not needed. The timer callback was invoked again only because the clock has already been updated in the meantime. + call kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() that does nothing because PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED has been cleared already. + call update_report_ts() and return. This is fine. Except that sched_clock_tick() might allow to set it already during the 1st invocation. Scenario 2: + guest did sleep + 1st watchdog_timer_fn() invocation + same as in 1st scenario + guest did sleep again: + set PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED again + 2nd watchdog_timer_fn() invocation + SOFTLOCKUP_DELAY_REPORT is set from 1st invocation + call sched_clock_tick() + call kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() + clear PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED + call touch_softlockup_watchdog_sync() + set SOFTLOCKUP_DELAY_REPORT + set softlockup_touch_sync + call update_report_ts() (set real timestamp immediately) + return from the timer callback + 3rd watchdog_timer_fn() invocation + timestamp is set from 2nd invocation + softlockup_touch_sync is set but not checked because the real timestamp is already set Make the code more straightforward: 1. Always call kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() at the very beginning to handle PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED. It touches the watchdog when the quest did sleep. 2. Handle the situation when the watchdog has been touched (SOFTLOCKUP_DELAY_REPORT is set). Call sched_clock_tick() when touch_*sync() variant was used. It makes sure that the timestamp will be up to date even when it has been touched in atomic context or quest did sleep. As a result, kvm_check_and_clear_guest_paused() is called on a single location. And the right timestamp is always set when returning from the timer callback.

* watchdog/softlockup: remove logic that tried to prevent repeated reportsPetr Mladek2021-04-301-12/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The softlockup detector does some gymnastic with the variable soft_watchdog_warn. It was added by the commit 58687acba59266735ad ("lockup_detector: Combine nmi_watchdog and softlockup detector"). The purpose is not completely clear. There are the following clues. They describe the situation how it looked after the above mentioned commit: 1. The variable was checked with a comment "only warn once". 2. The variable was set when softlockup was reported. It was cleared only when the CPU was not longer in the softlockup state. 3. watchdog_touch_ts was not explicitly updated when the softlockup was reported. Without this variable, the report would normally be printed again during every following watchdog_timer_fn() invocation. The logic has got even more tangled up by the commit ed235875e2ca98 ("kernel/watchdog.c: print traces for all cpus on lockup detection"). After this commit, soft_watchdog_warn is set only when softlockup_all_cpu_backtrace is enabled. But multiple reports from all CPUs are prevented by a new variable soft_lockup_nmi_warn. Conclusion: The variable probably never worked as intended. In each case, it has not worked last many years because the softlockup was reported repeatedly after the full period defined by watchdog_thresh. The reason is that watchdog gets touched in many known slow paths, for example, in printk_stack_address(). This code is called also when printing the softlockup report. It means that the watchdog timestamp gets updated after each report. Solution: Simply remove the logic. People want the periodic report anyway.

* watchdog/softlockup: report the overall time of softlockupsPetr Mladek2021-04-301-12/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The softlockup detector currently shows the time spent since the last report. As a result it is not clear whether a CPU is infinitely hogged by a single task or if it is a repeated event. The situation can be simulated with a simply busy loop: while (true) cpu_relax(); The softlockup detector produces: [ 168.277520] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s! [cat:4865] [ 196.277604] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s! [cat:4865] [ 236.277522] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 23s! [cat:4865] But it should be, something like: [ 480.372418] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 26s! [cat:4943] [ 508.372359] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 52s! [cat:4943] [ 548.372359] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 89s! [cat:4943] [ 576.372351] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 115s! [cat:4943] For the better output, add an additional timestamp of the last report. Only this timestamp is reset when the watchdog is intentionally touched from slow code paths or when printing the report.

* watchdog: explicitly update timestamp when reporting softlockupPetr Mladek2021-04-301-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The softlockup situation might stay for a long time or even forever. When it happens, the softlockup debug messages are printed in regular intervals defined by get_softlockup_thresh(). There is a mystery. The repeated message is printed after the full interval that is defined by get_softlockup_thresh(). But the timer callback is called more often as defined by sample_period. The code looks like the soflockup should get reported in every sample_period when it was once behind the thresh. It works only by chance. The watchdog is touched when printing the stall report, for example, in printk_stack_address(). Make the behavior clear and predictable by explicitly updating the timestamp in watchdog_timer_fn() when the report gets printed.

* watchdog: rename __touch_watchdog() to a better descriptive namePetr Mladek2021-04-301-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "watchdog/softlockup: Report overall time and some cleanup", v2. I dug deep into the softlockup watchdog history when time permitted this year. And reworked the patchset that fixed timestamps and cleaned up the code[2]. I split it into very small steps and did even more code clean up. The result looks quite strightforward and I am pretty confident with the changes. [1] v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201210160038.31441-1-pmladek@suse.com [2] v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191024114928.15377-1-pmladek@suse.com This patch (of 6): There are many touch_*watchdog() functions. They are called in situations where the watchdog could report false positives or create unnecessary noise. For example, when CPU is entering idle mode, a virtual machine is stopped, or a lot of messages are printed in the atomic context. These functions set SOFTLOCKUP_RESET instead of a real timestamp. It allows to call them even in a context where jiffies might be outdated. For example, in an atomic context. The real timestamp is set by __touch_watchdog() that is called from the watchdog timer callback. Rename this callback to update_touch_ts(). It better describes the effect and clearly distinguish is from the other touch_*watchdog() functions. Another motivation is that two timestamps are going to be used. One will be used for the total softlockup time. The other will be used to measure time since the last report. The new function name will help to distinguish which timestamp is being updated.

* workqueue/watchdog: Make unbound workqueues aware of touch_softlockup_watchdog()Wang Qing2021-04-041-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 84;0;0c84;0;0c There are two workqueue-specific watchdog timestamps: + @wq_watchdog_touched_cpu (per-CPU) updated by touch_softlockup_watchdog() + @wq_watchdog_touched (global) updated by touch_all_softlockup_watchdogs() watchdog_timer_fn() checks only the global @wq_watchdog_touched for unbound workqueues. As a result, unbound workqueues are not aware of touch_softlockup_watchdog(). The watchdog might report a stall even when the unbound workqueues are blocked by a known slow code. Solution: touch_softlockup_watchdog() must touch also the global @wq_watchdog_touched timestamp. The global timestamp can no longer be used for bound workqueues because it is now updated from all CPUs. Instead, bound workqueues have to check only @wq_watchdog_touched_cpu and these timestamps have to be updated for all CPUs in touch_all_softlockup_watchdogs(). Beware: The change might cause the opposite problem. An unbound workqueue might get blocked on CPU A because of a real softlockup. The workqueue watchdog would miss it when the timestamp got touched on CPU B. It is acceptable because softlockups are detected by softlockup watchdog. The workqueue watchdog is there to detect stalls where a work never finishes, for example, because of dependencies of works queued into the same workqueue.

* kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliasesGuilherme G. Piccoli2020-06-081-28/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases. This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and {hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure. It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or 1, not the full range of integers. We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put the alias table in alphabetical order.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit safer. As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers a lot of the changes are mechnical.

* watchdog/softlockup: Enforce that timestamp is valid on bootThomas Gleixner2020-01-171-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Robert reported that during boot the watchdog timestamp is set to 0 for one second which is the indicator for a watchdog reset. The reason for this is that the timestamp is in seconds and the time is taken from sched clock and divided by ~1e9. sched clock starts at 0 which means that for the first second during boot the watchdog timestamp is 0, i.e. reset. Use ULONG_MAX as the reset indicator value so the watchdog works correctly right from the start. ULONG_MAX would only conflict with a real timestamp if the system reaches an uptime of 136 years on 32bit and almost eternity on 64bit.
