From 5473e0cc37c03c576adbda7591a6cc8e37c1bb7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wanpeng Li Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2015 14:55:56 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] sched: 'Annotate' migrate_tasks() Kernel testing triggered this warning: | WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 13 at kernel/sched/core.c:1156 do_set_cpus_allowed+0x7e/0x80() | Modules linked in: | CPU: 0 PID: 13 Comm: migration/0 Not tainted 4.2.0-rc1-00049-g25834c7 #2 | Call Trace: | dump_stack+0x4b/0x75 | warn_slowpath_common+0x8b/0xc0 | warn_slowpath_null+0x22/0x30 | do_set_cpus_allowed+0x7e/0x80 | cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback+0x7c/0x170 | select_fallback_rq+0x221/0x280 | migration_call+0xe3/0x250 | notifier_call_chain+0x53/0x70 | __raw_notifier_call_chain+0x1e/0x30 | cpu_notify+0x28/0x50 | take_cpu_down+0x22/0x40 | multi_cpu_stop+0xd5/0x140 | cpu_stopper_thread+0xbc/0x170 | smpboot_thread_fn+0x174/0x2f0 | kthread+0xc4/0xe0 | ret_from_kernel_thread+0x21/0x30 As Peterz pointed out: | So the normal rules for changing task_struct::cpus_allowed are holding | both pi_lock and rq->lock, such that holding either stabilizes the mask. | | This is so that wakeup can happen without rq->lock and load-balance | without pi_lock. | | From this we already get the relaxation that we can omit acquiring | rq->lock if the task is not on the rq, because in that case | load-balancing will not apply to it. | | ** these are the rules currently tested in do_set_cpus_allowed() ** | | Now, since __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() uses task_rq_lock() which | unconditionally acquires both locks, we could get away with holding just | rq->lock when on_rq for modification because that'd still exclude | __set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), it would also work against | __kthread_bind_mask() because that assumes !on_rq. | | That said, this is all somewhat fragile. | | Now, I don't think dropping rq->lock is quite as disastrous as it | usually is because !cpu_active at this point, which means load-balance | will not interfere, but that too is somewhat fragile. | | So we end up with a choice of two fragile.. This patch fixes it by following the rules for changing task_struct::cpus_allowed with both pi_lock and rq->lock held.
