2025-08-28rcu: Protect ->defer_qs_iw_pending from data racePaul E. McKenney
[ Upstream commit 90c09d57caeca94e6f3f87c49e96a91edd40cbfd ] On kernels built with CONFIG_IRQ_WORK=y, when rcu_read_unlock() is invoked within an interrupts-disabled region of code [1], it will invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(), which uses an irq-work handler to force the system to notice when the RCU read-side critical section actually ends. That end won't happen until interrupts are enabled at the soonest. In some kernels, such as those booted with rcutree.use_softirq=y, the irq-work handler is used unconditionally. The per-CPU rcu_data structure's ->defer_qs_iw_pending field is updated by the irq-work handler and is both read and updated by rcu_read_unlock_special(). This resulted in the following KCSAN splat: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BUG: KCSAN: data-race in rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler / rcu_read_unlock_special read to 0xffff96b95f42d8d8 of 1 bytes by task 90 on cpu 8: rcu_read_unlock_special+0x175/0x260 __rcu_read_unlock+0x92/0xa0 rt_spin_unlock+0x9b/0xc0 __local_bh_enable+0x10d/0x170 __local_bh_enable_ip+0xfb/0x150 rcu_do_batch+0x595/0xc40 rcu_cpu_kthread+0x4e9/0x830 smpboot_thread_fn+0x24d/0x3b0 kthread+0x3bd/0x410 ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 write to 0xffff96b95f42d8d8 of 1 bytes by task 88 on cpu 8: rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler+0x1e/0x30 irq_work_single+0xaf/0x160 run_irq_workd+0x91/0xc0 smpboot_thread_fn+0x24d/0x3b0 kthread+0x3bd/0x410 ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 no locks held by irq_work/8/88. irq event stamp: 200272 hardirqs last enabled at (200272): [<ffffffffb0f56121>] finish_task_switch+0x131/0x320 hardirqs last disabled at (200271): [<ffffffffb25c7859>] __schedule+0x129/0xd70 softirqs last enabled at (0): [<ffffffffb0ee093f>] copy_process+0x4df/0x1cc0 softirqs last disabled at (0): [<0000000000000000>] 0x0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The problem is that irq-work handlers run with interrupts enabled, which means that rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() could be interrupted, and that interrupt handler might contain an RCU read-side critical section, which might invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(). In the strict KCSAN mode of operation used by RCU, this constitutes a data race on the ->defer_qs_iw_pending field. This commit therefore disables interrupts across the portion of the rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() that updates the ->defer_qs_iw_pending field. This suffices because this handler is not a fast path. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2025-07-17rcu: Return early if callback is not specifiedUladzislau Rezki (Sony)
[ Upstream commit 33b6a1f155d627f5bd80c7485c598ce45428f74f ] Currently the call_rcu() API does not check whether a callback pointer is NULL. If NULL is passed, rcu_core() will try to invoke it, resulting in NULL pointer dereference and a kernel crash. To prevent this and improve debuggability, this patch adds a check for NULL and emits a kernel stack trace to help identify a faulty caller.

2025-06-04rcu: handle quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n, PREEMPT_COUNT=yAnkur Arora
[ Upstream commit 83b28cfe796464ebbde1cf7916c126da6d572685 ] With PREEMPT_RCU=n, cond_resched() provides urgently needed quiescent states for read-side critical sections via rcu_all_qs(). One reason why this was needed: lacking preempt-count, the tick handler has no way of knowing whether it is executing in a read-side critical section or not. With (PREEMPT_LAZY=y, PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n), we get (PREEMPT_COUNT=y, PREEMPT_RCU=n). In this configuration cond_resched() is a stub and does not provide quiescent states via rcu_all_qs(). (PREEMPT_RCU=y provides this information via rcu_read_unlock() and its nesting counter.) So, use the availability of preempt_count() to report quiescent states in rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq().

commit 5f98fd034ca6fd1ab8c91a3488968a0e9caaabf6 upstream. Since the actual slab freeing is deferred when calling kvfree_rcu(), so is the kmemleak_free() callback informing kmemleak of the object deletion. From the perspective of the kvfree_rcu() caller, the object is freed and it may remove any references to it. Since kmemleak does not scan RCU internal data storing the pointer, it will report such objects as leaks during the grace period. Tell kmemleak to ignore such objects on the kvfree_call_rcu() path. Note that the tiny RCU implementation does not have such issue since the objects can be tracked from the rcu_ctrlblk structure.

If reader_tasks[i].wq.head.next is NULL as allocated reader_task structure is zero initialized, the instruction will try to access address 0xffffffffffffffe8, which is exactly the fault address listed above. This commit therefore invokes init_waitqueue_head() before creating the kthread.

2023-09-02rcu-tasks: Add trc_inspect_reader() checks for exiting critical sectionPaul E. McKenney
commit 18f08e758f34e6dfe0668bee51bd2af7adacf381 upstream. Currently, trc_inspect_reader() treats a task exiting its RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section the same as being within that critical section. However, this can fail because that task might have already checked its .need_qs field, which means that it might never decrement the all-important trc_n_readers_need_end counter. Of course, for that to happen, the task would need to never again execute an RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section, but this really could happen if the system's last trampoline was removed. Note that exit from such a critical section cannot be treated as a quiescent state due to the possibility of nested critical sections. This means that if trc_inspect_reader() sees a negative nesting value, it must set up to try again later. This commit therefore ignores tasks that are exiting their RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections so that they will be rechecked later.

2023-09-02rcu-tasks: Wait for trc_read_check_handler() IPIsPaul E. McKenney
commit cbe0d8d91415c9692fe88191940d98952b6855d9 upstream. Currently, RCU Tasks Trace initializes the trc_n_readers_need_end counter to the value one, increments it before each trc_read_check_handler() IPI, then decrements it within trc_read_check_handler() if the target task was in a quiescent state (or if the target task moved to some other CPU while the IPI was in flight), complaining if the new value was zero. The rationale for complaining is that the initial value of one must be decremented away before zero can be reached, and this decrement has not yet happened. Except that trc_read_check_handler() is initiated with an asynchronous smp_call_function_single(), which might be significantly delayed. This can result in false-positive complaints about the counter reaching zero. This commit therefore waits for in-flight IPI handlers to complete before decrementing away the initial value of one from the trc_n_readers_need_end counter. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2023-09-02rcu-tasks: Fix IPI failure handling in trc_wait_for_one_readerNeeraj Upadhyay
commit 46aa886c483f57ef13cd5ea0a85e70b93eb1d381 upstream. The trc_wait_for_one_reader() function is called at multiple stages of trace rcu-tasks GP function, rcu_tasks_wait_gp(): - First, it is called as part of per task function - rcu_tasks_trace_pertask(), for all non-idle tasks. As part of per task processing, this function add the task in the holdout list and if the task is currently running on a CPU, it sends IPI to the task's CPU. The IPI handler takes action depending on whether task is in trace rcu-tasks read side critical section or not: - a. If the task is in trace rcu-tasks read side critical section (t->trc_reader_nesting != 0), the IPI handler sets the task's ->trc_reader_special.b.need_qs, so that this task notifies exit from its outermost read side critical section (by decrementing trc_n_readers_need_end) to the GP handling function. trc_wait_for_one_reader() also increments trc_n_readers_need_end, so that the trace rcu-tasks GP handler function waits for this task's read side exit notification. The IPI handler also sets t->trc_reader_checked to true, and no further IPIs are sent for this task, for this trace rcu-tasks grace period and this task can be removed from holdout list. - b. If the task is in the process of exiting its trace rcu-tasks read side critical section, (t->trc_reader_nesting < 0), defer this task's processing to future calls to trc_wait_for_one_reader(). - c. If task is not in rcu-task read side critical section, t->trc_reader_nesting == 0, ->trc_reader_checked is set for this task, so that this task is removed from holdout list. - Second, trc_wait_for_one_reader() is called as part of post scan, in function rcu_tasks_trace_postscan(), for all idle tasks. - Third, in function check_all_holdout_tasks_trace(), this function is called for each task in the holdout list, but only if there isn't a pending IPI for the task (->trc_ipi_to_cpu == -1). This function removed the task from holdout list, if IPI handler has completed the required work, to ensure that the current trace rcu-tasks grace period either waits for this task, or this task is not in a trace rcu-tasks read side critical section. Now, considering the scenario where smp_call_function_single() fails in first case, inside rcu_tasks_trace_pertask(). In this case, ->trc_ipi_to_cpu is set to the current CPU for that task. This will result in trc_wait_for_one_reader() getting skipped in third case, inside check_all_holdout_tasks_trace(), for this task. This further results in ->trc_reader_checked never getting set for this task, and the task not getting removed from holdout list. This can cause the current trace rcu-tasks grace period to stall. Fix the above problem, by resetting ->trc_ipi_to_cpu to -1, on smp_call_function_single() failure, so that future IPI calls can be send for this task. Note that all three of the trc_wait_for_one_reader() function's callers (rcu_tasks_trace_pertask(), rcu_tasks_trace_postscan(), check_all_holdout_tasks_trace()) hold cpu_read_lock(). This means that smp_call_function_single() cannot race with CPU hotplug, and thus should never fail. Therefore, also add a warning in order to report any such failure in case smp_call_function_single() grows some other reason for failure.

2023-09-02rcu: Prevent expedited GP from enabling tick on offline CPUPaul E. McKenney
commit 147f04b14adde831eb4a0a1e378667429732f9e8 upstream. If an RCU expedited grace period starts just when a CPU is in the process of going offline, so that the outgoing CPU has completed its pass through stop-machine but has not yet completed its final dive into the idle loop, RCU will attempt to enable that CPU's scheduling-clock tick via a call to tick_dep_set_cpu(). For this to happen, that CPU has to have been online when the expedited grace period completed its CPU-selection phase. This is pointless: The outgoing CPU has interrupts disabled, so it cannot take a scheduling-clock tick anyway. In addition, the tick_dep_set_cpu() function's eventual call to irq_work_queue_on() will splat as follows: smpboot: CPU 1 is now offline WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 124 at kernel/irq_work.c:95 +irq_work_queue_on+0x57/0x60 Modules linked in: CPU: 6 PID: 124 Comm: kworker/6:2 Not tainted 5.15.0-rc1+ #3 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS +rel-1.14.0-0-g155821a-rebuilt.opensuse.org 04/01/2014 Workqueue: rcu_gp wait_rcu_exp_gp RIP: 0010:irq_work_queue_on+0x57/0x60 Code: 8b 05 1d c7 ea 62 a9 00 00 f0 00 75 21 4c 89 ce 44 89 c7 e8 +9b 37 fa ff ba 01 00 00 00 89 d0 c3 4c 89 cf e8 3b ff ff ff eb ee <0f> 0b eb b7 +0f 0b eb db 90 48 c7 c0 98 2a 02 00 65 48 03 05 91 6f RSP: 0000:ffffb12cc038fe48 EFLAGS: 00010282 RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: 0000000000005208 RCX: 0000000000000020 RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: ffff9ad01f45a680 RBP: 000000000004c990 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: ffff9ad01f45a680 R10: ffffb12cc0317db0 R11: 0000000000000001 R12: 00000000fffecee8 R13: 0000000000000001 R14: 0000000000026980 R15: ffffffff9e53ae00 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff9ad01f580000(0000) +knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000000 CR3: 000000000de0c000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Call Trace: tick_nohz_dep_set_cpu+0x59/0x70 rcu_exp_wait_wake+0x54e/0x870 ? sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus+0x1fc/0x390 process_one_work+0x1ef/0x3c0 ? process_one_work+0x3c0/0x3c0 worker_thread+0x28/0x3c0 ? process_one_work+0x3c0/0x3c0 kthread+0x115/0x140 ? set_kthread_struct+0x40/0x40 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 ---[ end trace c5bf75eb6aa80bc6 ]--- This commit therefore avoids invoking tick_dep_set_cpu() on offlined CPUs to limit both futility and false-positive splats.

2023-07-27rcu-tasks: Simplify trc_read_check_handler() atomic operationsPaul E. McKenney
[ Upstream commit 96017bf9039763a2e02dcc6adaa18592cd73a39d ] Currently, trc_wait_for_one_reader() atomically increments the trc_n_readers_need_end counter before sending the IPI invoking trc_read_check_handler(). All failure paths out of trc_read_check_handler() and also from the smp_call_function_single() within trc_wait_for_one_reader() must carefully atomically decrement this counter. This is more complex than it needs to be. This commit therefore simplifies things and saves a few lines of code by dispensing with the atomic decrements in favor of having trc_read_check_handler() do the atomic increment only in the success case.

2023-06-21rcu/kvfree: Avoid freeing new kfree_rcu() memory after old grace periodZiwei Dai
commit 5da7cb193db32da783a3f3e77d8b639989321d48 upstream. Memory passed to kvfree_rcu() that is to be freed is tracked by a per-CPU kfree_rcu_cpu structure, which in turn contains pointers to kvfree_rcu_bulk_data structures that contain pointers to memory that has not yet been handed to RCU, along with an kfree_rcu_cpu_work structure that tracks the memory that has already been handed to RCU. These structures track three categories of memory: (1) Memory for kfree(), (2) Memory for kvfree(), and (3) Memory for both that arrived during an OOM episode. The first two categories are tracked in a cache-friendly manner involving a dynamically allocated page of pointers (the aforementioned kvfree_rcu_bulk_data structures), while the third uses a simple (but decidedly cache-unfriendly) linked list through the rcu_head structures in each block of memory. On a given CPU, these three categories are handled as a unit, with that CPU's kfree_rcu_cpu_work structure having one pointer for each of the three categories. Clearly, new memory for a given category cannot be placed in the corresponding kfree_rcu_cpu_work structure until any old memory has had its grace period elapse and thus has been removed. And the kfree_rcu_monitor() function does in fact check for this. Except that the kfree_rcu_monitor() function checks these pointers one at a time. This means that if the previous kfree_rcu() memory passed to RCU had only category 1 and the current one has only category 2, the kfree_rcu_monitor() function will send that current category-2 memory along immediately. This can result in memory being freed too soon, that is, out from under unsuspecting RCU readers. To see this, consider the following sequence of events, in which: o Task A on CPU 0 calls rcu_read_lock(), then uses "from_cset", then is preempted. o CPU 1 calls kfree_rcu(cset, rcu_head) in order to free "from_cset" after a later grace period. Except that "from_cset" is freed right after the previous grace period ended, so that "from_cset" is immediately freed. Task A resumes and references "from_cset"'s member, after which nothing good happens.

2023-05-30rcu: Protect rcu_print_task_exp_stall() ->exp_tasks accessZqiang
[ Upstream commit 3c1566bca3f8349f12b75d0a2d5e4a20ad6262ec ] For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y, the following scenario can result in a NULL-pointer dereference: CPU1 CPU2 rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore rcu_print_task_exp_stall if (special.b.blocked) READ_ONCE(rnp->exp_tasks) != NULL raw_spin_lock_rcu_node np = rcu_next_node_entry(t, rnp) if (&t->rcu_node_entry == rnp->exp_tasks) WRITE_ONCE(rnp->exp_tasks, np) .... raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore_rcu_node raw_spin_lock_irqsave_rcu_node t = list_entry(rnp->exp_tasks->prev, struct task_struct, rcu_node_entry) (if rnp->exp_tasks is NULL, this will dereference a NULL pointer) The problem is that CPU2 accesses the rcu_node structure's->exp_tasks field without holding the rcu_node structure's ->lock and CPU2 did not observe CPU1's change to rcu_node structure's ->exp_tasks in time. Therefore, if CPU1 sets rcu_node structure's->exp_tasks pointer to NULL, then CPU2 might dereference that NULL pointer. This commit therefore holds the rcu_node structure's ->lock while accessing that structure's->exp_tasks field.

[ Upstream commit 6bc6e6b27524304aadb9c04611ddb1c84dd7617a ] The ref_scale_shutdown() kthread/function uses wait_event() to wait for the refscale test to complete. However, although the read-side tests are normally extremely fast, there is no law against specifying a very large value for the refscale.loops module parameter or against having a slow read-side primitive. Either way, this might well trigger the hung-task timeout. This commit therefore replaces those wait_event() calls with calls to wait_event_idle(), which do not trigger the hung-task timeout.

2023-05-17rcu: Avoid stack overflow due to __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() being kprobe-edZheng Yejian
commit 7a29fb4a4771124bc61de397dbfc1554dbbcc19c upstream. Registering a kprobe on __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() can cause kernel stack overflow as shown below. This issue can be reproduced by enabling CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL and booting the kernel with argument "nohz_full=", and then giving the following commands at the shell prompt: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ # echo 'p:mp1 __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick' >> kprobe_events # echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable This commit therefore adds __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() to the kprobes blacklist using NOKPROBE_SYMBOL().

2023-03-11rcu-tasks: Make rude RCU-Tasks work well with CPU hotplugZqiang
[ Upstream commit ea5c8987fef20a8cca07e428aa28bc64649c5104 ] The synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() function invokes rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() to wait one rude RCU-tasks grace period. The rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() function in turn checks if there is only a single online CPU. If so, it will immediately return, because a call to synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() is by definition a grace period on a single-CPU system. (We could have blocked!) Unfortunately, this check uses num_online_cpus() without synchronization, which can result in too-short grace periods. To see this, consider the following scenario: CPU0 CPU1 (going offline) migration/1 task: cpu_stopper_thread -> take_cpu_down -> _cpu_disable (dec __num_online_cpus) ->cpuhp_invoke_callback preempt_disable access old_data0 task1 del old_data0 ..... synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() task1 schedule out .... task2 schedule in rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() ->__num_online_cpus == 1 ->return .... task1 schedule in ->free old_data0 preempt_enable When CPU1 decrements __num_online_cpus, its value becomes 1. However, CPU1 has not finished going offline, and will take one last trip through the scheduler and the idle loop before it actually stops executing instructions. Because synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() is mostly used for tracing, and because both the scheduler and the idle loop can be traced, this means that CPU0's prematurely ended grace period might disrupt the tracing on CPU1. Given that this disruption might include CPU1 executing instructions in memory that was just now freed (and maybe reallocated), this is a matter of some concern. This commit therefore removes that problematic single-CPU check from the rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() function. This dispenses with the single-CPU optimization, but there is no evidence indicating that this optimization is important. In addition, synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() contains a similar optimization (albeit only for early boot), which also splats. (As in exactly why are you invoking synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() so early in boot, anyway???) It is OK for the synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() function's check to be unsynchronized because the only times that this check can evaluate to true is when there is only a single CPU running with preemption disabled. While in the area, this commit also fixes a minor bug in which a call to synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() would instead be attributed to synchronize_rcu_tasks().

[ Upstream commit 2d7f00b2f01301d6e41fd4a28030dab0442265be ] The normal grace period's RCU CPU stall warnings are invoked from the scheduling-clock interrupt handler, and can thus invoke smp_processor_id() with impunity, which allows them to directly invoke dump_cpu_task(). In contrast, the expedited grace period's RCU CPU stall warnings are invoked from process context, which causes the dump_cpu_task() function's calls to smp_processor_id() to complain bitterly in debug kernels.

2023-03-11rcu-tasks: Fix synchronize_rcu_tasks() VS zap_pid_ns_processes()Frederic Weisbecker
[ Upstream commit 28319d6dc5e2ffefa452c2377dd0f71621b5bff0 ] RCU Tasks and PID-namespace unshare can interact in do_exit() in a complicated circular dependency: 1) TASK A calls unshare(CLONE_NEWPID), this creates a new PID namespace that every subsequent child of TASK A will belong to. But TASK A doesn't itself belong to that new PID namespace. 2) TASK A forks() and creates TASK B. TASK A stays attached to its PID namespace (let's say PID_NS1) and TASK B is the first task belonging to the new PID namespace created by unshare() (let's call it PID_NS2). 3) Since TASK B is the first task attached to PID_NS2, it becomes the PID_NS2 child reaper. 4) TASK A forks() again and creates TASK C which get attached to PID_NS2. Note how TASK C has TASK A as a parent (belonging to PID_NS1) but has TASK B (belonging to PID_NS2) as a pid_namespace child_reaper. 5) TASK B exits and since it is the child reaper for PID_NS2, it has to kill all other tasks attached to PID_NS2, and wait for all of them to die before getting reaped itself (zap_pid_ns_process()). 6) TASK A calls synchronize_rcu_tasks() which leads to synchronize_srcu(&tasks_rcu_exit_srcu). 7) TASK B is waiting for TASK C to get reaped. But TASK B is under a tasks_rcu_exit_srcu SRCU critical section (exit_notify() is between exit_tasks_rcu_start() and exit_tasks_rcu_finish()), blocking TASK A. 8) TASK C exits and since TASK A is its parent, it waits for it to reap TASK C, but it can't because TASK A waits for TASK B that waits for TASK C. Pid_namespace semantics can hardly be changed at this point. But the coverage of tasks_rcu_exit_srcu can be reduced instead. The current task is assumed not to be concurrently reapable at this stage of exit_notify() and therefore tasks_rcu_exit_srcu can be temporarily relaxed without breaking its constraints, providing a way out of the deadlock scenario.

2023-01-14rcu: Prevent lockdep-RCU splats on lock acquisition/releasePaul E. McKenney
commit 4d60b475f858ebdb06c1339f01a890f287b5e587 upstream. The rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() functions transition the current CPU between online and offline state from an RCU perspective. Unfortunately, this means that the rcu_cpu_starting() function's lock acquisition and the rcu_report_dead() function's lock releases happen while the CPU is offline from an RCU perspective, which can result in lockdep-RCU splats about using RCU from an offline CPU. And this situation can also result in too-short grace periods, especially in guest OSes that are subject to vCPU preemption. This commit therefore uses sequence-count-like synchronization to forgive use of RCU while RCU thinks a CPU is offline across the full extent of the rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() function's lock acquisitions and releases. One approach would have been to use the actual sequence-count primitives provided by the Linux kernel. Unfortunately, the resulting code looks completely broken and wrong, and is likely to result in patches that break RCU in an attempt to address this appearance of broken wrongness. Plus there is no net savings in lines of code, given the additional explicit memory barriers required. Therefore, this sequence count is instead implemented by a new ->ofl_seq field in the rcu_node structure. If this counter's value is an odd number, RCU forgives RCU read-side critical sections on other CPUs covered by the same rcu_node structure, even if those CPUs are offline from an RCU perspective. In addition, if a given leaf rcu_node structure's ->ofl_seq counter value is an odd number, rcu_gp_init() delays starting the grace period until that counter value changes.

2022-10-26rcu: Back off upon fill_page_cache_func() allocation failureMichal Hocko
[ Upstream commit 093590c16b447f53e66771c8579ae66c96f6ef61 ] The fill_page_cache_func() function allocates couple of pages to store kvfree_rcu_bulk_data structures. This is a lightweight (GFP_NORETRY) allocation which can fail under memory pressure. The function will, however keep retrying even when the previous attempt has failed. This retrying is in theory correct, but in practice the allocation is invoked from workqueue context, which means that if the memory reclaim gets stuck, these retries can hog the worker for quite some time. Although the workqueues subsystem automatically adjusts concurrency, such adjustment is not guaranteed to happen until the worker context sleeps. And the fill_page_cache_func() function's retry loop is not guaranteed to sleep (see the should_reclaim_retry() function). And we have seen this function cause workqueue lockups: kernel: BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=93 node=1 flags=0x1 nice=0 stuck for 32s! [...] kernel: pool 74: cpus=37 node=0 flags=0x1 nice=0 hung=32s workers=2 manager: 2146 kernel: pwq 498: cpus=249 node=1 flags=0x1 nice=0 active=4/256 refcnt=5 kernel: in-flight: 1917:fill_page_cache_func kernel: pending: dbs_work_handler, free_work, kfree_rcu_monitor Originally, we thought that the root cause of this lockup was several retries with direct reclaim, but this is not yet confirmed. Furthermore, we have seen similar lockups without any heavy memory pressure. This suggests that there are other factors contributing to these lockups. However, it is not really clear that endless retries are desireable. So let's make the fill_page_cache_func() function back off after allocation failure.

The key point here is that the purpose of this RCU flavor is to force a schedule on each online CPU since some past event. But the rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() function runs in the context of the RCU Tasks Rude's grace-period kthread, so there must already have been a context switch on the current CPU since the call to either synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() or call_rcu_tasks_rude(). So if there is only a single CPU online, RCU Tasks Rude's grace-period kthread does not need to anything at all. It turns out that the rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() function's call to schedule_on_each_cpu() causes problems during early boot. During that time, there is only one online CPU, namely the boot CPU. Therefore, applying this single-CPU optimization fixes early-boot instances of this problem.

commit a554ba288845fd3f6f12311fd76a51694233458a upstream. Time limit only makes sense when callbacks are serviced in softirq mode because: _ In case we need to get back to the scheduler, cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() is called after each callback. _ In case some other softirq vector needs the CPU, the call to local_bh_enable() before cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() takes care about them via a call to do_softirq(). Therefore, make sure the time limit only applies to softirq mode.

2022-03-28rcu: Don't deboost before reporting expedited quiescent statePaul E. McKenney
commit 10c535787436d62ea28156a4b91365fd89b5a432 upstream. Currently rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore() releases rnp->boost_mtx before reporting the expedited quiescent state. Under heavy real-time load, this can result in this function being preempted before the quiescent state is reported, which can in turn prevent the expedited grace period from completing. Tim Murray reports that the resulting expedited grace periods can take hundreds of milliseconds and even more than one second, when they should normally complete in less than a millisecond. This was fine given that there were no particular response-time constraints for synchronize_rcu_expedited(), as it was designed for throughput rather than latency. However, some users now need sub-100-millisecond response-time constratints. This patch therefore follows Neeraj's suggestion (seconded by Tim and by Uladzislau Rezki) of simply reversing the two operations.

2022-03-08rcu/nocb: Fix missed nocb_timer requeueFrederic Weisbecker
commit b2fcf2102049f6e56981e0ab3d9b633b8e2741da upstream. This sequence of events can lead to a failure to requeue a CPU's ->nocb_timer: 1. There are no callbacks queued for any CPU covered by CPU 0-2's ->nocb_gp_kthread. Note that ->nocb_gp_kthread is associated with CPU 0. 2. CPU 1 enqueues its first callback with interrupts disabled, and thus must defer awakening its ->nocb_gp_kthread. It therefore queues its rcu_data structure's ->nocb_timer. At this point, CPU 1's rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup is RCU_NOCB_WAKE. 3. CPU 2, which shares the same ->nocb_gp_kthread, also enqueues a callback, but with interrupts enabled, allowing it to directly awaken the ->nocb_gp_kthread. 4. The newly awakened ->nocb_gp_kthread associates both CPU 1's and CPU 2's callbacks with a future grace period and arranges for that grace period to be started. 5. This ->nocb_gp_kthread goes to sleep waiting for the end of this future grace period. 6. This grace period elapses before the CPU 1's timer fires. This is normally improbably given that the timer is set for only one jiffy, but timers can be delayed. Besides, it is possible that kernel was built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y. 7. The grace period ends, so rcu_gp_kthread awakens the ->nocb_gp_kthread, which in turn awakens both CPU 1's and CPU 2's ->nocb_cb_kthread. Then ->nocb_gb_kthread sleeps waiting for more newly queued callbacks. 8. CPU 1's ->nocb_cb_kthread invokes its callback, then sleeps waiting for more invocable callbacks. 9. Note that neither kthread updated any ->nocb_timer state, so CPU 1's ->nocb_defer_wakeup is still set to RCU_NOCB_WAKE. 10. CPU 1 enqueues its second callback, this time with interrupts enabled so it can wake directly ->nocb_gp_kthread. It does so with calling wake_nocb_gp() which also cancels the pending timer that got queued in step 2. But that doesn't reset CPU 1's ->nocb_defer_wakeup which is still set to RCU_NOCB_WAKE. So CPU 1's ->nocb_defer_wakeup and its ->nocb_timer are now desynchronized. 11. ->nocb_gp_kthread associates the callback queued in 10 with a new grace period, arranges for that grace period to start and sleeps waiting for it to complete. 12. The grace period ends, rcu_gp_kthread awakens ->nocb_gp_kthread, which in turn wakes up CPU 1's ->nocb_cb_kthread which then invokes the callback queued in 10. 13. CPU 1 enqueues its third callback, this time with interrupts disabled so it must queue a timer for a deferred wakeup. However the value of its ->nocb_defer_wakeup is RCU_NOCB_WAKE which incorrectly indicates that a timer is already queued. Instead, CPU 1's ->nocb_timer was cancelled in 10. CPU 1 therefore fails to queue the ->nocb_timer. 14. CPU 1 has its pending callback and it may go unnoticed until some other CPU ever wakes up ->nocb_gp_kthread or CPU 1 ever calls an explicit deferred wakeup, for example, during idle entry. This commit fixes this bug by resetting rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup everytime we delete the ->nocb_timer. It is quite possible that there is a similar scenario involving ->nocb_bypass_timer and ->nocb_defer_wakeup. However, despite some effort from several people, a failure scenario has not yet been located. However, that by no means guarantees that no such scenario exists. Finding a failure scenario is left as an exercise for the reader, and the "Fixes:" tag below relates to ->nocb_bypass_timer instead of ->nocb_timer.

2022-02-23rcu: Do not report strict GPs for outgoing CPUsPaul E. McKenney
commit bfb3aa735f82c8d98b32a669934ee7d6b346264d upstream. An outgoing CPU is marked offline in a stop-machine handler and most of that CPU's services stop at that point, including IRQ work queues. However, that CPU must take another pass through the scheduler and through a number of CPU-hotplug notifiers, many of which contain RCU readers. In the past, these readers were not a problem because the outgoing CPU has interrupts disabled, so that rcu_read_unlock_special() would not be invoked, and thus RCU would never attempt to queue IRQ work on the outgoing CPU. This changed with the advent of the CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD Kconfig option, in which rcu_read_unlock_special() is invoked upon exit from almost all RCU read-side critical sections. Worse yet, because interrupts are disabled, rcu_read_unlock_special() cannot immediately report a quiescent state and will therefore attempt to defer this reporting, for example, by queueing IRQ work. Which fails with a splat because the CPU is already marked as being offline. But it turns out that there is no need to report this quiescent state because rcu_report_dead() will do this job shortly after the outgoing CPU makes its final dive into the idle loop. This commit therefore makes rcu_read_unlock_special() refrain from queuing IRQ work onto outgoing CPUs. Fixes: 44bad5b3cca2 ("rcu: Do full report for .need_qs for strict GPs") Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This commit rechecks that a grace period is still in progress while holding the rcu_node structure's lock. The grace period cannot end while the current CPU's rcu_node structure's ->lock is held, thus avoiding false positives from the WARN_ON_ONCE().

2022-01-27rcu/exp: Mark current CPU as exp-QS in IPI loop second passFrederic Weisbecker
[ Upstream commit 81f6d49cce2d2fe507e3fddcc4a6db021d9c2e7b ] Expedited RCU grace periods invoke sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus(), which takes two passes over the leaf rcu_node structure's CPUs. The first pass gathers up the current CPU and CPUs that are in dynticks idle mode. The workqueue will report a quiescent state on their behalf later. The second pass sends IPIs to the rest of the CPUs, but excludes the current CPU, incorrectly assuming it has been included in the first pass's list of CPUs. Unfortunately the current CPU may have changed between the first and second pass, due to the fact that the various rcu_node structures' ->lock fields have been dropped, thus momentarily enabling preemption. This means that if the second pass's CPU was not on the first pass's list, it will be ignored completely. There will be no IPI sent to it, and there will be no reporting of quiescent states on its behalf. Unfortunately, the expedited grace period will nevertheless be waiting for that CPU to report a quiescent state, but with that CPU having no reason to believe that such a report is needed. The result will be an expedited grace period stall. Fix this by no longer excluding the current CPU from consideration during the second pass.

[ Upstream commit f0b2b2df5423fb369ac762c77900bc7765496d58 ] The sync_sched_exp_online_cleanup() checks to see if RCU needs an expedited quiescent state from the incoming CPU, sending it an IPI if so.

This works for the case where incoming CPU is same as self.
