| * RCU, workqueue: Implement rcu_workTejun Heo2018-03-191-0/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are cases where RCU callback needs to be bounced to a sleepable context. This is currently done by the RCU callback queueing a work item, which can be cumbersome to write and confusing to read. This patch introduces rcu_work, a workqueue work variant which gets executed after a RCU grace period, and converts the open coded bouncing in fs/aio and kernel/cgroup. v3: Dropped queue_rcu_work_on(). Documented rcu grace period behavior after queue_rcu_work(). v2: Use rcu_barrier() instead of synchronize_rcu() to wait for completion of previously queued rcu callback as per Paul.

| | * workqueue: Allow retrieval of current task's work structLukas Wunner2018-02-161-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a helper to retrieve the current task's work struct if it is a workqueue worker. This allows us to fix a long-standing deadlock in several DRM drivers wherein the ->runtime_suspend callback waits for a specific worker to finish and that worker in turn calls a function which waits for runtime suspend to finish. That function is invoked from multiple call sites and waiting for runtime suspend to finish is the correct thing to do except if it's executing in the context of the worker.

There is the normal amount of new IIO drivers added, like all releases. The networking IPX and the ncpfs filesystem are moved into the staging tree, as they are on their way out of the kernel due to lack of use anymore. The visorbus subsystem finall has started moving out of the staging tree to the "real" part of the kernel, and the most and fsl-mc codebases are almost ready to move out, that will probably happen for 4.17-rc1 if all goes well. Other than that, there is a bunch of license header cleanups in the tree, along with the normal amount of coding style churn that we all know and love for this codebase. I also got frustrated at the Meltdown/Spectre mess and took it out on the dgnc tty driver, deleting huge chunks of it that were never even being used. Full details of everything is in the shortlog.

As lnet wants to provide a cpu mask of allowed cpus, it needs to be a WQ_UNBOUND work queue so that tasks can run on cpus other than where they were submitted. This patch also exported apply_workqueue_attrs() which is a documented part of the workqueue API, that isn't currently exported. lustre needs it to allow workqueue thread to be limited to a subset of CPUs.

This helps simplifying early init and operation of low level subsystems which use workqueues for managerial things which aren't depended upon early during boot. Out of laziness, the early init didn't cover workqueues with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, which is inconsistent and confusing because adding the flag simply makes the system fail to boot. Cover WQ_MEM_RECLAIM too. This was originally brought up for RCU but RCU didn't actually need this.

The root cause of this safe -> unsafe lock order is the mutex_unlock(pool->manager_arb) in manage_workers() with pool->lock held. Unlocking mutex while holding an irq spinlock was never safe and this problem has been around forever but it never got noticed because the only time the mutex is usually trylocked while holding irqlock making actual failures very unlikely and lockdep annotation missed the condition until the recent b9c16a0e1f73 ("locking/mutex: Fix lockdep_assert_held() fail"). Using mutex for pool->manager_arb has always been a bit of stretch. It primarily is an mechanism to arbitrate managership between workers which can easily be done with a pool flag. The only reason it became a mutex is that pool destruction path wants to exclude parallel managing operations. This patch replaces the mutex with a new pool flag POOL_MANAGER_ACTIVE and make the destruction path wait for the current manager on a wait queue. v2: Drop unnecessary flag clearing before pool destruction as suggested by Boqun.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful. However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This distinction is critical to correct operation. It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory step, this patch converts the workqueue code and comments to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently. ---- virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

The problem is that when a single work class does: wait_for_completion(&C) and complete(&C) in different executions, we'll build dependencies like: lock_map_acquire(W) complete_acquire(C) and lock_map_acquire(W) complete_release(C) which results in the dependency chain: W->C->W, which lockdep thinks spells deadlock, even though there is no deadlock potential since works are ran concurrently. One possibility would be to change the work 'lock' to recursive-read, but that would mean hitting a lockdep limitation on recursive locks. Also, unconditinoally switching to recursive-read here would fail to detect the actual deadlock on single-threaded workqueues, which do have a problem with this. For now, forcefully disregard these locks for crossrelease.

The situation as described is: Work W1: Work W2: Task: ARR(Q) ARR(Q) flush_workqueue(Q) A(W1) A(W2) A(Q) flush_work(W2) R(Q) A(W2) R(W2) if (special) A(Q) else ARR(Q) R(Q) where: A - acquire, ARR - acquire-read-recursive, R - release. Where under 'special' conditions we want to trigger a lock recursion deadlock, but otherwise allow the flush_work(). The allowing is done by using recursive read locks (ARR), but lockdep is broken for recursive stuff. However, there appears to be no need to acquire the lock if we're not 'special', so if we remove the 'else' clause things become much simpler and no longer need the recursion thing at all.

The reason of this false positive is we initialize all wq_barrier::done at insert_wq_barrier() via init_completion(), which makes them belong to the same lock class, therefore, impossible circles are reported. To fix this, explicitly initialize the lockdep map for wq_barrier::done in insert_wq_barrier(), so that the lock class key of wq_barrier::done is a subkey of the corresponding work_struct, as a result we won't build a dependency between a wq_barrier with a unrelated work, and we can differ wq barriers based on the related works, so the false positive above is avoided. Also define the empty lockdep_init_map_crosslock() for !CROSSRELEASE to make the code simple and away from unnecessary #ifdefs.

* | | locking/lockdep: Implement the 'crossrelease' featureByungchul Park2017-08-101-0/+2

It's useful since it does not report just an actual deadlock but also the possibility of a deadlock that has not actually happened yet. That enables problems to be fixed before they affect real systems. However, this facility is only applicable to typical locks, such as spinlocks and mutexes, which are normally released within the context in which they were acquired. However, synchronization primitives like page locks or completions, which are allowed to be released in any context, also create dependencies and can cause a deadlock. So lockdep should track these locks to do a better job. The 'crossrelease' implementation makes these primitives also be tracked.

* | workqueue: Work around edge cases for calc of pool's cpumaskMichael Bringmann2017-07-281-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is an underlying assumption/trade-off in many layers of the Linux system that CPU <-> node mapping is static. This is despite the presence of features like NUMA and 'hotplug' that support the dynamic addition/ removal of fundamental system resources like CPUs and memory. PowerPC systems, however, do provide extensive features for the dynamic change of resources available to a system. Currently, there is little or no synchronization protection around the updating of the CPU <-> node mapping, and the export/update of this information for other layers / modules. In systems which can change this mapping during 'hotplug', like PowerPC, the information is changing underneath all layers that might reference it. This patch attempts to ensure that a valid, usable cpumask attribute is used by the workqueue infrastructure when setting up new resource pools. It prevents a crash that has been observed when an 'empty' cpumask is passed along to the worker/task scheduling code. It is intended as a temporary workaround until a more fundamental review and correction of the issue can be done.

* | workqueue: implicit ordered attribute should be overridableTejun Heo2017-07-251-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered") automatically enabled ordered attribute for unbound workqueues w/ max_active == 1. Because ordered workqueues reject max_active and some attribute changes, this implicit ordered mode broke cases where the user creates an unbound workqueue w/ max_active == 1 and later explicitly changes the related attributes. This patch distinguishes explicit and implicit ordered setting and overrides from attribute changes if implict.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The combination of WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 used to imply ordered execution. After NUMA affinity 4c16bd327c74 ("workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues"), this is no longer true due to per-node worker pools. While the right way to create an ordered workqueue is alloc_ordered_workqueue(), the documentation has been misleading for a long time and people do use WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 for ordered workqueues which can lead to subtle bugs which are very difficult to trigger. It's unlikely that we'd see noticeable performance impact by enforcing ordering on WQ_UNBOUND / max_active == 1 workqueues. Let's automatically set __WQ_ORDERED for those workqueues.
