* kernel/watchdog: split up config optionsNicholas Piggin2017-07-121-32/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Split SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR from LOCKUP_DETECTOR, and split HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF from HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. LOCKUP_DETECTOR implies the general boot, sysctl, and programming interfaces for the lockup detectors. An architecture that wants to use a hard lockup detector must define HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF or HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. Alternatively an arch can define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, which provides the minimum arch_touch_nmi_watchdog, and it otherwise does its own thing and does not implement the LOCKUP_DETECTOR interfaces. sparc is unusual in that it has started to implement some of the interfaces, but not fully yet. It should probably be converted to a full HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.

* kernel/watchdog: introduce arch_touch_nmi_watchdog()Nicholas Piggin2017-07-121-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For architectures that define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, instead of having them provide the complete touch_nmi_watchdog() function, just have them provide arch_touch_nmi_watchdog(). This gives the generic code more flexibility in implementing this function, and arch implementations don't miss out on touching the softlockup watchdog or other generic details.

* sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to ↵Ingo Molnar2017-03-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | <linux/sched/debug.h> We are going to split <linux/sched/debug.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/debug.h> file that just maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

* kernel/watchdog.c: do not hardcode CPU 0 as the initial threadPrarit Bhargava2017-02-221-10/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 is enabled, the socket containing the boot cpu can be replaced. During the hot add event, the message NMI watchdog: enabled on all CPUs, permanently consumes one hw-PMU counter. is output implying that the NMI watchdog was disabled at some point. This is not the case and the message has caused confusion for users of systems that support the removal of the boot cpu socket. The watchdog code is coded to assume that cpu 0 is always the first cpu to initialize the watchdog, and the last to stop its watchdog thread. That is not the case for initializing if cpu 0 has been removed and added. The removal case has never been correct because the smpboot code will remove the watchdog threads starting with the lowest cpu number. This patch adds watchdog_cpus to track the number of cpus with active NMI watchdog threads so that the first and last thread can be used to set and clear the value of firstcpu_err. firstcpu_err is set when the first watchdog thread is enabled, and cleared when the last watchdog thread is disabled.

* kernel/watchdog: prevent false hardlockup on overloaded systemDon Zickus2017-01-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On an overloaded system, it is possible that a change in the watchdog threshold can be delayed long enough to trigger a false positive. This can easily be achieved by having a cpu spinning indefinitely on a task, while another cpu updates watchdog threshold. What happens is while trying to park the watchdog threads, the hrtimers on the other cpus trigger and reprogram themselves with the new slower watchdog threshold. Meanwhile, the nmi watchdog is still programmed with the old faster threshold. Because the one cpu is blocked, it prevents the thread parking on the other cpus from completing, which is needed to shutdown the nmi watchdog and reprogram it correctly. As a result, a false positive from the nmi watchdog is reported. Fix this by setting a park_in_progress flag to block all lockups until the parking is complete. Fix provided by Ulrich Obergfell.

* kernel/watchdog.c: move hardlockup detector to separate fileBabu Moger2016-12-141-0/+227
Separate hardlockup code from watchdog.c and move it to watchdog_hld.c. It is mostly straight forward. Remove everything inside CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTORS. This code will go to file watchdog_hld.c. Also update the makefile accordigly.
