  locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on error
2015-03-01 11:27:04 -08:00
Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 9d3e2d02f5 locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on error
The "usual" path is:

 - rt_mutex_slowlock()
 - set_current_state()
 - task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() (ret 0)
 - __rt_mutex_slowlock()
   - sleep or not but do return with __set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING)
 - back to caller.

In the early error case where task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() return
-EDEADLK we never change the task's state back to RUNNING. I
assume this is intended. Without this change after ww_mutex
using rt_mutex the selftest passes but later I get plenty of:

  | bad: scheduling from the idle thread!

backtraces.

Colin Cross 5516fd7b92 debug: prevent entering debug mode on panic/exception.
On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting
after a panic.

Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent
entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to
interact with debugger.

To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra
configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via
/proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the
default value.

Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to
perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting
for the user input incase of panic.

Daniel Thompson fb6daa7520 kdb: Provide forward search at more prompt
Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the
| grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted
shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the
entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly
useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a
useful trigger string *before* the point of interest.

This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple
forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

Daniel Thompson ab08e464a2 kdb: Fix a prompt management bug when using | grep
Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a
command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command.
Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the
display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself
when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as
kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed.

This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag
from the middle of command processing to the beginning.

Daniel Thompson 5454388113 kdb: Remove stack dump when entering kgdb due to NMI
Issuing a stack dump feels ergonomically wrong when entering due to NMI.

Entering due to NMI is normally a reaction to a user request, either the
NMI button on a server or a "magic knock" on a UART. Therefore the
backtrace behaviour on entry due to NMI should be like SysRq-g (no stack
dump) rather than like oops.

Note also that the stack dump does not offer any information that
cannot be trivial retrieved using the 'bt' command.

Daniel Thompson f7d4ca8bbf kdb: Avoid printing KERN_ levels to consoles
Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix
(consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off
before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by
kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems
grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage
of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to
that of kdb's "sr h".

This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages
before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also
act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller
provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to
printk().

The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a
regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit
04d2c8c83d ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte
pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original
behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command
display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

Peter Zijlstra 2636ed5f8d sched/rt: Avoid obvious configuration fail
Setting the root group's cpu.rt_runtime_us to 0 is a bad thing; it
would disallow the kernel creating RT tasks.

One can of course still set it to 1, which will (likely) still wreck
your kernel, but at least make it clear that setting it to 0 is not
good.

Collect both sanity checks into the one place while we're there.

Peter Zijlstra 1fe89e1b6d sched/autogroup: Fix failure to set cpu.rt_runtime_us
Because task_group() uses a cache of autogroup_task_group(), whose
output depends on sched_class, switching classes can generate
problems.

In particular, when started as fair, the cache points to the
autogroup, so when switching to RT the tg_rt_schedulable() test fails
for every cpu.rt_{runtime,period}_us change because now the autogroup
has tasks and no runtime.

Furthermore, going back to the previous semantics of varying
task_group() with sched_class has the down-side that the sched_debug
output varies as well, even though the task really is in the
autogroup.

Therefore add an autogroup exception to tg_has_rt_tasks() -- such that
both (all) task_group() usages in sched/core now have one. And remove
all the remnants of the variable task_group() output.

John Stultz 29183a70b0 ntp: Fixup adjtimex freq validation on 32-bit systems
Additional validation of adjtimex freq values to avoid
potential multiplication overflows were added in commit
5e5aeb4367 (time: adjtimex: Validate the ADJ_FREQUENCY values)

Unfortunately the patch used LONG_MAX/MIN instead of
LLONG_MAX/MIN, which was fine on 64-bit systems, but being
much smaller on 32-bit systems caused false positives
resulting in most direct frequency adjustments to fail w/
EINVAL.

ntpd only does direct frequency adjustments at startup, so
the issue was not as easily observed there, but other time
sync applications like ptpd and chrony were more effected by
the bug.

See bugs:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92481
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1188074

This patch changes the checks to use LLONG_MAX for
clarity, and additionally the checks are disabled
on 32-bit systems since LLONG_MAX/PPM_SCALE is always
larger then the 32-bit long freq value, so multiplication
overflows aren't possible there.

NeilBrown 9cff8adeaa sched: Prevent recursion in io_schedule()
io_schedule() calls blk_flush_plug() which, depending on the
contents of current->plug, can initiate arbitrary blk-io requests.

Note that this contrasts with blk_schedule_flush_plug() which requires
all non-trivial work to be handed off to a separate thread.

This makes it possible for io_schedule() to recurse, and initiating
block requests could possibly call mempool_alloc() which, in times of
memory pressure, uses io_schedule().

Apart from any stack usage issues, io_schedule() will not behave
correctly when called recursively as delayacct_blkio_start() does
not allow for repeated calls.

So:
 - use ->in_iowait to detect recursion.  Set it earlier, and restore
   it to the old value.
 - move the call to "raw_rq" after the call to blk_flush_plug().
   As this is some sort of per-cpu thing, we want some chance that
   we are on the right CPU
 - When io_schedule() is called recurively, use blk_schedule_flush_plug()
   which cannot further recurse.
 - as this makes io_schedule() a lot more complex and as io_schedule()
   must match io_schedule_timeout(), but all the changes in io_schedule_timeout()
   and make io_schedule a simple wrapper for that.

Commit de30ec4730 "Remove unnecessary ->wait.lock serialization when
reading completion state" was not correct, without lock/unlock the code
like stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu()

	while (!completion_done())
		cpu_relax();

can return before complete() finishes its spin_unlock() which writes to
this memory. And spin_unlock_wait().

While at it, change try_wait_for_completion() to use READ_ONCE().

Frederic Weisbecker 06b1f8083d sched: Fix preempt_schedule_common() triggering tracing recursion
Since the function graph tracer needs to disable preemption, it might
call preempt_schedule() after reenabling  it if something triggered the
need for rescheduling in between.

Therefore we can't trace preempt_schedule() itself because we would
face a function tracing recursion otherwise as the tracer is always
called before PREEMPT_ACTIVE gets set to prevent that recursion. This is
why preempt_schedule() is tagged as "notrace".

But the same issue applies to every function called by preempt_schedule()
before PREEMPT_ACTIVE is actually set. And preempt_schedule_common() is
one such example. Unfortunately we forgot to tag it as notrace as well
and as a result we are encountering tracing recursion since it got
introduced by:

   a18b5d0181 ("sched: Fix missing preemption opportunity")

Let's fix that by applying the appropriate function tag to
preempt_schedule_common().

Kirill Tkhai a79ec89fd8 sched/dl: Prevent enqueue of a sleeping task in dl_task_timer()
A deadline task may be throttled and dequeued at the same time.
This happens, when it becomes throttled in schedule(), which
is called to go to sleep:

current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
schedule()
    deactivate_task()
        dequeue_task_dl()
            update_curr_dl()
                start_dl_timer()
            __dequeue_task_dl()
    prev->on_rq = 0;

Later the timer fires, but the task is still dequeued:

dl_task_timer()
    enqueue_task_dl() /* queues on dl_rq; on_rq remains 0 */

Someone wakes it up:

try_to_wake_up()

    enqueue_dl_entity()
        BUG_ON(on_dl_rq())

Patch fixes this problem, it prevents queueing !on_rq tasks
on dl_rq.

Peter Zijlstra 3960c8c0c7 sched: Make dl_task_time() use task_rq_lock()
Kirill reported that a dl task can be throttled and dequeued at the
same time. This happens, when it becomes throttled in schedule(),
which is called to go to sleep:

current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
schedule()
    deactivate_task()
        dequeue_task_dl()
            update_curr_dl()
                start_dl_timer()
            __dequeue_task_dl()
    prev->on_rq = 0;

This invalidates the assumption from commit 0f397f2c90 ("sched/dl:
Fix race in dl_task_timer()"):

  "The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
   we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
   thus free of ttwu races".

And therefore we have to use the full task_rq_lock() here.

This further amends the fact that we forgot to update the rq lock loop
for TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATE, from commit cca26e8009 ("sched: Teach
scheduler to understand TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING state").

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 8d1e5a1a1c locking/rtmutex: Avoid a NULL pointer dereference on deadlock
With task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() returning early -EDEADLK we never
add the waiter to the waitqueue. Later, we try to remove it via
remove_waiter() and go boom in rt_mutex_top_waiter() because
rb_entry() gives a NULL pointer.

( Tested on v3.18-RT where rtmutex is used for regular mutex and I
  tried to get one twice in a row. )

Not sure when this started but I guess 397335f004 ("rtmutex: Fix

Rafael J. Wysocki 124cf9117c PM / sleep: Make it possible to quiesce timers during suspend-to-idle
The efficiency of suspend-to-idle depends on being able to keep CPUs
in the deepest available idle states for as much time as possible.
Ideally, they should only be brought out of idle by system wakeup
interrupts.

However, timer interrupts occurring periodically prevent that from
happening and it is not practical to chase all of the "misbehaving"
timers in a whack-a-mole fashion.  A much more effective approach is
to suspend the local ticks for all CPUs and the entire timekeeping
along the lines of what is done during full suspend, which also
helps to keep suspend-to-idle and full suspend reasonably similar.

The idea is to suspend the local tick on each CPU executing
cpuidle_enter_freeze() and to make the last of them suspend the
entire timekeeping.  That should prevent timer interrupts from
triggering until an IO interrupt wakes up one of the CPUs.  It
needs to be done with interrupts disabled on all of the CPUs,
though, because otherwise the suspended clocksource might be
accessed by an interrupt handler which might lead to fatal
consequences.

Unfortunately, the existing ->enter callbacks provided by cpuidle
drivers generally cannot be used for implementing that, because some
of them re-enable interrupts temporarily and some idle entry methods
cause interrupts to be re-enabled automatically on exit.  Also some
of these callbacks manipulate local clock event devices of the CPUs
which really shouldn't be done after suspending their ticks.

To overcome that difficulty, introduce a new cpuidle state callback,
->enter_freeze, that will be guaranteed (1) to keep interrupts
disabled all the time (and return with interrupts disabled) and (2)
not to touch the CPU timer devices.  Modify cpuidle_enter_freeze() to
look for the deepest available idle state with ->enter_freeze present
and to make the CPU execute that callback with suspended tick (and the
last of the online CPUs to execute it with suspended timekeeping).

Rafael J. Wysocki 060407aed5 timekeeping: Make it safe to use the fast timekeeper while suspended
Theoretically, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() may be executed after
timekeeping has been suspended (or before it is resumed) which
in turn may lead to undefined behavior, for example, when the
clocksource read from timekeeping_get_ns() called by it is
not accessible at that time.

Prevent that from happening by setting up a dummy readout base for
the fast timekeeper during timekeeping_suspend() such that it will
always return the same number of cycles.

After the last timekeeping_update() in timekeeping_suspend() the
clocksource is read and the result is stored as cycles_at_suspend.
The readout base from the current timekeeper is copied onto the
dummy and the ->read pointer of the dummy is set to a routine
unconditionally returning cycles_at_suspend.  Next, the dummy is
passed to update_fast_timekeeper().

Then, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() will work until the subsequent
timekeeping_resume() and the proper readout base for the fast
timekeeper will be restored by the timekeeping_update() called
right after clearing timekeeping_suspended.

Wang Nan 69d54b916d kprobes: makes kprobes/enabled works correctly for optimized kprobes.
debugfs/kprobes/enabled doesn't work correctly on optimized kprobes.
Masami Hiramatsu has a test report on x86_64 platform:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/19/274

This patch forces it to unoptimize kprobe if kprobes_all_disarmed is set.
It also checks the flag in unregistering path for skipping unneeded
disarming process when kprobes globally disarmed.

Wang Nan 977ad481b6 kprobes: set kprobes_all_disarmed earlier to enable re-optimization.
In original code, the probed instruction doesn't get optimized after

echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled

This is because original code checks kprobes_all_disarmed in
optimize_kprobe(), but this flag is turned off after calling that
function.  Therefore, optimize_kprobe() will see kprobes_all_disarmed ==
true and doesn't do the optimization.

This patch simply turns off kprobes_all_disarmed earlier to enable
optimization.
