Peter Zijlstra 62694cd513 sched: Move cpu_active() tests from stop_two_cpus() into migrate_swap_stop()
The cpu_active() tests are not fundamentally part of stop_two_cpus(),
move then into the scheduler where they belong.

Oleg Nesterov f0cf16cbd0 stop_machine: Kill cpu_stop_threads->setup() and cpu_stop_unpark()
Now that we always use stop_machine_unpark() to wake the stopper
threas up, we can kill ->setup() and fold cpu_stop_unpark() into
stop_machine_unpark().

And we do not need stopper->lock to set stopper->enabled = true.

Oleg Nesterov c00166d87e stop_machine: Kill smp_hotplug_thread->pre_unpark, introduce stop_machine_unpark()
1. Change smpboot_unpark_thread() to check ->selfparking, just
   like smpboot_park_thread() does.

2. Introduce stop_machine_unpark() which sets ->enabled and calls
   kthread_unpark().

3. Change smpboot_thread_call() and cpu_stop_init() to call
   stop_machine_unpark() by hand.

This way:

    - IMO the ->selfparking logic becomes more consistent.

    - We can kill the smp_hotplug_thread->pre_unpark() method.

    - We can easily unpark the stopper thread earlier. Say, we
      can move stop_machine_unpark() from smpboot_thread_call()
      to sched_cpu_active() as Peter suggests.

Oleg Nesterov d8bc853582 stop_machine: Change cpu_stop_queue_two_works() to rely on stopper->enabled
Change cpu_stop_queue_two_works() to ensure that both CPU's have
stopper->enabled == T or fail otherwise.

This way stop_two_cpus() no longer needs to check cpu_active() to
avoid the deadlock. This patch doesn't remove these checks, we will
do this later.

Note: we need to take both stopper->lock's at the same time, but this
will also help to remove lglock from stop_machine.c, so I hope this
is fine.

Oleg Nesterov 233e7f267e stop_machine: Ensure that a queued callback will be called before cpu_stop_park()
cpu_stop_queue_work() checks stopper->enabled before it queues the
work, but ->enabled == T can only guarantee cpu_stop_signal_done()
if we race with cpu_down().

This is not enough for stop_two_cpus() or stop_machine(), they will
deadlock if multi_cpu_stop() won't be called by one of the target
CPU's. stop_machine/stop_cpus are fine, they rely on stop_cpus_mutex.
But stop_two_cpus() has to check cpu_active() to avoid the same race
with hotplug, and this check is very unobvious and probably not even
correct if we race with cpu_up().

Change cpu_down() pass to clear ->enabled before cpu_stopper_thread()
flushes the pending ->works and returns with KTHREAD_SHOULD_PARK set.

Note also that smpboot_thread_call() calls cpu_stop_unpark() which
sets enabled == T at CPU_ONLINE stage, so this CPU can't go away until
cpu_stopper_thread() is called at least once. This all means that if
cpu_stop_queue_work() succeeds, we know that work->fn() will be called.

pairs: {11,  4} {13, 11} { 4, 13}

                        4       11      13

Where *X denotes the cpu running the queueing of cpu-X and X[ab] denotes
the first/second queued work.

You'll observe the top of the workqueue for each cpu: 4,11,13 to be work
from cpus: M, O, N resp. IOW. deadlock.

Do away with the queueing trickery and introduce lg_double_lock() to
lock both CPUs and fully serialize the stop_two_cpus() callers instead
of the partial (and buggy) serialization we have now.

Rik van Riel 7053ea1a34 stop_machine: Fix race between stop_two_cpus() and stop_cpus()
There is a race between stop_two_cpus, and the global stop_cpus.

It is possible for two CPUs to get their stopper functions queued
"backwards" from one another, resulting in the stopper threads
getting stuck, and the system hanging. This can happen because
queuing up stoppers is not synchronized.

This patch adds synchronization between stop_cpus (a rare operation),
and stop_two_cpus.

Peter Zijlstra 6acce3ef84 sched: Remove get_online_cpus() usage
Remove get_online_cpus() usage from the scheduler; there's 4 sites that
use it:

 - sched_init_smp(); where its completely superfluous since we're in
   'early' boot and there simply cannot be any hotplugging.

 - sched_getaffinity(); we already take a raw spinlock to protect the
   task cpus_allowed mask, this disables preemption and therefore
   also stabilizes cpu_online_mask as that's modified using
   stop_machine. However switch to active mask for symmetry with
   sched_setaffinity()/set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). We guarantee active
   mask stability by inserting sync_rcu/sched() into _cpu_down.

 - sched_setaffinity(); we don't appear to need get_online_cpus()
   either, there's two sites where hotplug appears relevant:
    * cpuset_cpus_allowed(); for the !cpuset case we use possible_mask,
      for the cpuset case we hold task_lock, which is a spinlock and
      thus for mainline disables preemption (might cause pain on RT).
    * set_cpus_allowed_ptr(); Holds all scheduler locks and thus has
      preemption properly disabled; also it already deals with hotplug
      races explicitly where it releases them.

 - migrate_swap(); we can make stop_two_cpus() do the heavy lifting for
   us with a little trickery. By adding a sync_sched/rcu() after the
   CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifier we can provide preempt/rcu guarantees for
   cpu_active_mask. Use these to validate that both our cpus are active
   when queueing the stop work before we queue the stop_machine works
   for take_cpu_down().

Peter Zijlstra 1be0bd77c5 stop_machine: Introduce stop_two_cpus()
Introduce stop_two_cpus() in order to allow controlled swapping of two
tasks. It repurposes the stop_machine() state machine but only stops
the two cpus which we can do with on-stack structures and avoid
machine wide synchronization issues.

The ordering of CPUs is important to avoid deadlocks. If unordered then
two cpus calling stop_two_cpus on each other simultaneously would attempt
to queue in the opposite order on each CPU causing an AB-BA style deadlock.
By always having the lowest number CPU doing the queueing of works, we can
guarantee that works are always queued in the same order, and deadlocks
are avoided.

Thomas Gleixner 46c498c2cd stop_machine: Mark per cpu stopper enabled early
commit 14e568e78 (stop_machine: Use smpboot threads) introduced the
following regression:

Before this commit the stopper enabled bit was set in the online
notifier.

CPU0				CPU1
cpu_up
				cpu online
hotplug_notifier(ONLINE)
  stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true;
...
stop_machine()

The conversion to smpboot threads moved the enablement to the wakeup
path of the parked thread. The majority of users seem to have the
following working order:

CPU0				CPU1
cpu_up
				cpu online
unpark_threads()
  wakeup(stopper[CPU1])
....
				stopper thread runs
				  stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true;
stop_machine()

But Konrad and Sander have observed:

CPU0				CPU1
cpu_up
				cpu online
unpark_threads()
  wakeup(stopper[CPU1])
....
stop_machine()
				stopper thread runs
				  stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true;

Now the stop machinery kicks CPU0 into the stop loop, where it gets
stuck forever because the queue code saw stopper(CPU1)->enabled ==
false, so CPU0 waits for CPU1 to enter stomp_machine, but the CPU1
stopper work got discarded due to enabled == false.

Add a pre_unpark function to the smpboot thread descriptor and call it
before waking the thread.

This fixes the problem at hand, but the stop_machine code should be
more robust. The stopper->enabled flag smells fishy at best.

Thanks to Konrad for going through a loop of debug patches and
providing the information to decode this issue.

Suresh Siddha 192d885742 x86, mtrr: use stop_machine APIs for doing MTRR rendezvous
MTRR rendezvous sequence is not implemened using stop_machine() before, as this
gets called both from the process context aswell as the cpu online paths
(where the cpu has not come online and the interrupts are disabled etc).

Now that we have a new stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() API, use it for
rendezvous during mtrr init of a logical processor that is coming online.

For the rest (runtime MTRR modification, system boot, resume paths), use
stop_machine() to implement the rendezvous sequence. This will consolidate and
cleanup the code.

Tejun Heo f740e6cd0c stop_machine: implement stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu()
Currently, mtrr wants stop_machine functionality while a CPU is being
brought up.  As stop_machine() requires the calling CPU to be active,
mtrr implements its own stop_machine using stop_one_cpu() on each
online CPU.  This doesn't only unnecessarily duplicate complex logic
but also introduces a possibility of deadlock when it races against
the generic stop_machine().

This patch implements stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() to serve such
use cases.  Its functionality is basically the same as stop_machine();
however, it should be called from a CPU which isn't active and doesn't
depend on working scheduling on the calling CPU.

This is achieved by using busy loops for synchronization and
open-coding stop_cpus queuing and waiting with direct invocation of
fn() for local CPU inbetween.

Suresh Siddha 6d3321e8e2 x86, mtrr: lock stop machine during MTRR rendezvous sequence
MTRR rendezvous sequence using stop_one_cpu_nowait() can potentially
happen in parallel with another system wide rendezvous using
stop_machine(). This can lead to deadlock (The order in which
works are queued can be different on different cpu's. Some cpu's
will be running the first rendezvous handler and others will be running
the second rendezvous handler. Each set waiting for the other set to join
for the system wide rendezvous, leading to a deadlock).

MTRR rendezvous sequence is not implemented using stop_machine() as this
gets called both from the process context aswell as the cpu online paths
(where the cpu has not come online and the interrupts are disabled etc).
stop_machine() works with only online cpus.

For now, take the stop_machine mutex in the MTRR rendezvous sequence that
gets called from an online cpu (here we are in the process context
and can potentially sleep while taking the mutex). And the MTRR rendezvous
that gets triggered during cpu online doesn't need to take this stop_machine
lock (as the stop_machine() already ensures that there is no cpu hotplug
going on in parallel by doing get_online_cpus())

    TBD: Pursue a cleaner solution of extending the stop_machine()
         infrastructure to handle the case where the calling cpu is
         still not online and use this for MTRR rendezvous sequence.

In order to separate the stop/migrate work thread from the SCHED_FIFO
implementation, create a special class for it that is of higher priority than
SCHED_FIFO itself.

This currently solves a problem where cpu-hotplug consumes so much cpu-time
that the SCHED_FIFO class gets throttled, but has the bandwidth replenishment
timer pending on the now dead cpu.

It is also required for when we add the planned deadline scheduling class above
SCHED_FIFO, as the stop/migrate thread still needs to transcent those tasks.

Amit K. Arora 54e88fad22 sched: Make sure timers have migrated before killing the migration_thread
Problem: In a stress test where some heavy tests were running along with
regular CPU offlining and onlining, a hang was observed. The system seems
to be hung at a point where migration_call() tries to kill the
migration_thread of the dying CPU, which just got moved to the current
CPU. This migration thread does not get a chance to run (and die) since
rt_throttled is set to 1 on current, and it doesn't get cleared as the
hrtimer which is supposed to reset the rt bandwidth
(sched_rt_period_timer) is tied to the CPU which we just marked dead!

Solution: This patch pushes the killing of migration thread to
"CPU_POST_DEAD" event. By then all the timers (including
sched_rt_period_timer) should have got migrated (along with other
callbacks).

Tejun Heo 969c79215a sched: replace migration_thread with cpu_stop
Currently migration_thread is serving three purposes - migration
pusher, context to execute active_load_balance() and forced context
switcher for expedited RCU synchronize_sched.  All three roles are
hardcoded into migration_thread() and determining which job is
scheduled is slightly messy.

This patch kills migration_thread and replaces all three uses with
cpu_stop.  The three different roles of migration_thread() are
splitted into three separate cpu_stop callbacks -
migration_cpu_stop(), active_load_balance_cpu_stop() and
synchronize_sched_expedited_cpu_stop() - and each use case now simply
asks cpu_stop to execute the callback as necessary.

synchronize_sched_expedited() was implemented with private
preallocated resources and custom multi-cpu queueing and waiting
logic, both of which are provided by cpu_stop.
synchronize_sched_expedited_count is made atomic and all other shared
resources along with the mutex are dropped.

synchronize_sched_expedited() also implemented a check to detect cases
where not all the callback got executed on their assigned cpus and
fall back to synchronize_sched().  If called with cpu hotplug blocked,
cpu_stop already guarantees that and the condition cannot happen;
otherwise, stop_machine() would break.  However, this patch preserves
the paranoid check using a cpumask to record on which cpus the stopper
ran so that it can serve as a bisection point if something actually
goes wrong theree.

Because the internal execution state is no longer visible,
rcu_expedited_torture_stats() is removed.

This patch also renames cpu_stop threads to from "stopper/%d" to
"migration/%d".  The names of these threads ultimately don't matter
and there's no reason to make unnecessary userland visible changes.

With this patch applied, stop_machine() and sched now share the same
resources.  stop_machine() is faster without wasting any resources and
sched migration users are much cleaner.

Tejun Heo 3fc1f1e27a stop_machine: reimplement using cpu_stop
Reimplement stop_machine using cpu_stop.  As cpu stoppers are
guaranteed to be available for all online cpus,
stop_machine_create/destroy() are no longer necessary and removed.

With resource management and synchronization handled by cpu_stop, the
new implementation is much simpler.  Asking the cpu_stop to execute
the stop_cpu() state machine on all online cpus with cpu hotplug
disabled is enough.

stop_machine itself doesn't need to manage any global resources
anymore, so all per-instance information is rolled into struct
stop_machine_data and the mutex and all static data variables are
removed.

The previous implementation created and destroyed RT workqueues as
necessary which made stop_machine() calls highly expensive on very
large machines.  According to Dimitri Sivanich, preventing the dynamic
creation/destruction makes booting faster more than twice on very
large machines.  cpu_stop resources are preallocated for all online
cpus and should have the same effect.

Tejun Heo 1142d81029 cpu_stop: implement stop_cpu[s]()
Implement a simplistic per-cpu maximum priority cpu monopolization
mechanism.  A non-sleeping callback can be scheduled to run on one or
multiple cpus with maximum priority monopolozing those cpus.  This is
primarily to replace and unify RT workqueue usage in stop_machine and
scheduler migration_thread which currently is serving multiple
purposes.

Four functions are provided - stop_one_cpu(), stop_one_cpu_nowait(),
stop_cpus() and try_stop_cpus().

This is to allow clean sharing of resources among stop_cpu and all the
migration thread users.  One stopper thread per cpu is created which
is currently named "stopper/CPU".  This will eventually replace the
migration thread and take on its name.

* This facility was originally named cpuhog and lived in separate
  files but Peter Zijlstra nacked the name and thus got renamed to
  cpu_stop and moved into stop_machine.c.

* Better reporting of preemption leak as per Peter's suggestion.

Heiko Carstens 9ea09af3bd stop_machine: introduce stop_machine_create/destroy.
Introduce stop_machine_create/destroy. With this interface subsystems
that need a non-failing stop_machine environment can create the
stop_machine machine threads before actually calling stop_machine.
When the threads aren't needed anymore they can be killed with
stop_machine_destroy again.

When stop_machine gets called and the threads aren't present they
will be created and destroyed automatically. This restores the old
behaviour of stop_machine.

This patch also converts cpu hotplug to the new interface since it
is special: cpu_down calls __stop_machine instead of stop_machine.
However the kstop threads will only be created when stop_machine
gets called.

Changing the code so that the threads would be created automatically
on __stop_machine is currently not possible: when __stop_machine gets
called we hold cpu_add_remove_lock, which is the same lock that
create_rt_workqueue would take. So the workqueue needs to be created
before the cpu hotplug code locks cpu_add_remove_lock.

This reverts commit a802dd0eb5 by moving
the call to init_workqueues() back where it belongs - after SMP has been
initialized.

It also moves stop_machine_init() - which needs workqueues - to a later
phase using a core_initcall() instead of early_initcall().  That should
satisfy all ordering requirements, and was apparently the reason why
init_workqueues() was moved to be too early.

Heiko Carstens 8163bcac77 stop_machine: fix error code handling on multiple cpus
Using |= for updating a value which might be updated on several cpus
concurrently will not always work since we need to make sure that the
update happens atomically.
To fix this just use a write if the called function returns an error
code on a cpu. We end up writing the error code of an arbitrary cpu
if multiple ones fail but that should be sufficient.

Heiko Carstens c9583e55fa stop_machine: use workqueues instead of kernel threads
Convert stop_machine to a workqueue based approach. Instead of using kernel
threads for stop_machine we now use a an rt workqueue to synchronize all
cpus.
This has the advantage that all needed per cpu threads are already created
when stop_machine gets called. And therefore a call to stop_machine won't
fail anymore. This is needed for s390 which needs a mechanism to synchronize
all cpus without allocating any memory.
As Rusty pointed out free_module() needs a non-failing stop_machine interface
as well.

As a side effect the stop_machine code gets simplified.

Rusty Russell eeec4fad96 stop_machine(): stop_machine_run() changed to use cpu mask
Instead of a "cpu" arg with magic values NR_CPUS (any cpu) and ~0 (all
cpus), pass a cpumask_t.  Allow NULL for the common case (where we
don't care which CPU the function is run on): temporary cpumask_t's
are usually considered bad for stack space.

This deprecates stop_machine_run, to be removed soon when all the
callers are dead.
