2018-01-08irq/work: Improve the flag definitionsBartosz Golaszewski
IRQ_WORK_FLAGS is defined simply to 3UL. This is confusing as it says nothing about its purpose. Define IRQ_WORK_FLAGS as a bitwise OR of IRQ_WORK_PENDING and IRQ_WORK_BUSY and change its name to IRQ_WORK_CLAIMED. While we're at it: use the BIT() macro for all flags.

This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr(). Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

2014-09-13irq_work: Force raised irq work to run on irq work interruptFrederic Weisbecker
The nohz full kick, which restarts the tick when any resource depend on it, can't be executed anywhere given the operation it does on timers. If it is called from the scheduler or timers code, chances are that we run into a deadlock. This is why we run the nohz full kick from an irq work. That way we make sure that the kick runs on a virgin context. However if that's the case when irq work runs in its own dedicated self-ipi, things are different for the big bunch of archs that don't support the self triggered way. In order to support them, irq works are also handled by the timer interrupt as fallback. Now when irq works run on the timer interrupt, the context isn't blank. More precisely, they can run in the context of the hrtimer that runs the tick. But the nohz kick cancels and restarts this hrtimer and cancelling an hrtimer from itself isn't allowed. This is why we run in an endless loop: Kernel panic - not syncing: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 2 CPU: 2 PID: 7538 Comm: kworker/u8:8 Not tainted 3.16.0+ #34 Workqueue: btrfs-endio-write normal_work_helper [btrfs] ffff880244c06c88 000000001b486fe1 ffff880244c06bf0 ffffffff8a7f1e37 ffffffff8ac52a18 ffff880244c06c78 ffffffff8a7ef928 0000000000000010 ffff880244c06c88 ffff880244c06c20 000000001b486fe1 0000000000000000 Call Trace: <NMI[<ffffffff8a7f1e37>] dump_stack+0x4e/0x7a [<ffffffff8a7ef928>] panic+0xd4/0x207 [<ffffffff8a1450e8>] watchdog_overflow_callback+0x118/0x120 [<ffffffff8a186b0e>] __perf_event_overflow+0xae/0x350 [<ffffffff8a184f80>] ? perf_event_task_disable+0xa0/0xa0 [<ffffffff8a01a4cf>] ? x86_perf_event_set_period+0xbf/0x150 [<ffffffff8a187934>] perf_event_overflow+0x14/0x20 [<ffffffff8a020386>] intel_pmu_handle_irq+0x206/0x410 [<ffffffff8a01937b>] perf_event_nmi_handler+0x2b/0x50 [<ffffffff8a007b72>] nmi_handle+0xd2/0x390 [<ffffffff8a007aa5>] ? nmi_handle+0x5/0x390 [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 [<ffffffff8a008062>] default_do_nmi+0x72/0x1c0 [<ffffffff8a008268>] do_nmi+0xb8/0x100 [<ffffffff8a7ff66a>] end_repeat_nmi+0x1e/0x2e [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 [<ffffffff8a0cb7f8>] ? match_held_lock+0x8/0x1b0 <<EOE><IRQ[<ffffffff8a0ccd2f>] lock_acquired+0xaf/0x450 [<ffffffff8a0f74c5>] ? lock_hrtimer_base.isra.20+0x25/0x50 [<ffffffff8a7fc678>] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x78/0x90 [<ffffffff8a0f74c5>] ? lock_hrtimer_base.isra.20+0x25/0x50 [<ffffffff8a0f74c5>] lock_hrtimer_base.isra.20+0x25/0x50 [<ffffffff8a0f7723>] hrtimer_try_to_cancel+0x33/0x1e0 [<ffffffff8a0f78ea>] hrtimer_cancel+0x1a/0x30 [<ffffffff8a109237>] tick_nohz_restart+0x17/0x90 [<ffffffff8a10a213>] __tick_nohz_full_check+0xc3/0x100 [<ffffffff8a10a25e>] nohz_full_kick_work_func+0xe/0x10 [<ffffffff8a17c884>] irq_work_run_list+0x44/0x70 [<ffffffff8a17c8da>] irq_work_run+0x2a/0x50 [<ffffffff8a0f700b>] update_process_times+0x5b/0x70 [<ffffffff8a109005>] tick_sched_handle.isra.21+0x25/0x60 [<ffffffff8a109b81>] tick_sched_timer+0x41/0x60 [<ffffffff8a0f7aa2>] __run_hrtimer+0x72/0x470 [<ffffffff8a109b40>] ? tick_sched_do_timer+0xb0/0xb0 [<ffffffff8a0f8707>] hrtimer_interrupt+0x117/0x270 [<ffffffff8a034357>] local_apic_timer_interrupt+0x37/0x60 [<ffffffff8a80010f>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x3f/0x50 [<ffffffff8a7fe52f>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x6f/0x80 To fix this we force non-lazy irq works to run on irq work self-IPIs when available.

2014-06-16irq_work: Implement remote queueingFrederic Weisbecker
irq work currently only supports local callbacks. However its code is mostly ready to run remote callbacks and we have some potential user. The full nohz subsystem currently open codes its own remote irq work on top of the scheduler ipi when it wants a CPU to reevaluate its next tick. However this ad hoc solution bloats the scheduler IPI. Lets just extend the irq work subsystem to support remote queuing on top of the generic SMP IPI to handle this kind of user. This shouldn't add noticeable overhead.

2014-06-16irq_work: Split raised and lazy listsFrederic Weisbecker
An irq work can be handled from two places: from the tick if the work carries the "lazy" flag and the tick is periodic, or from a self IPI. We merge all these works in a single list and we use some per cpu latch to avoid raising a self-IPI when one is already pending. Now we could do away with this ugly latch if only the list was only made of non-lazy works. Just enqueueing a work on the empty list would be enough to know if we need to raise an IPI or not. Also we are going to implement remote irq work queuing. Then the per CPU latch will need to become atomic in the global scope. That's too bad because, here as well, just enqueueing a work on an empty list of non-lazy works would be enough to know if we need to raise an IPI or not. So lets take a way out of this: split the works in two distinct lists, one for the works that can be handled by the next tick and another one for those handled by the IPI. Just checking if the latter is empty when we queue a new work is enough to know if we need to raise an IPI.

It will start spewing to early_printk() (which is a lot nicer to use from NMI context too) when it fails to queue the IRQ-work because its already enqueued. It does have the false-positive for when two CPUs trigger the warn concurrently, but that should be rare and some extra clutter on the early printk shouldn't be a problem.

2012-11-14irq_work: Fix racy check on work pending flagFrederic Weisbecker
Work claiming wants to be SMP-safe. And by the time we try to claim a work, if it is already executing concurrently on another CPU, we want to succeed the claiming and queue the work again because the other CPU may have missed the data we wanted to handle in our work if it's about to complete there. This scenario is summarized below: CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- (flags = 0) cmpxchg(flags, 0, IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (flags = 3) [...] xchg(flags, IRQ_WORK_BUSY) (flags = 2) func() if (flags & IRQ_WORK_PENDING) (not true) cmpxchg(flags, flags, IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (flags = 3) [...] cmpxchg(flags, IRQ_WORK_BUSY, 0); (fail, pending on CPU 2) This state machine is synchronized using [cmp]xchg() on the flags. As such, the early IRQ_WORK_PENDING check in CPU 2 above is racy. By the time we check it, we may be dealing with a stale value because we aren't using an atomic accessor. As a result, CPU 2 may "see" that the work is still pending on another CPU while it may be actually completing the work function exection already, leaving our data unprocessed. To fix this, we start by speculating about the value we wish to be in the work->flags but we only make any conclusion after the value returned by the cmpxchg() call that either claims the work or let the current owner handle the pending work for us.

2012-11-14irq_work: Fix racy IRQ_WORK_BUSY flag settingFrederic Weisbecker
The IRQ_WORK_BUSY flag is set right before we execute the work. Once this flag value is set, the work enters a claimable state again. So if we have specific data to compute in our work, we ensure it's either handled by another CPU or locally by enqueuing the work again. This state machine is guanranteed by atomic operations on the flags. So when we set IRQ_WORK_BUSY without using an xchg-like operation, we break this guarantee as in the following summarized scenario: CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- (flags = 0) old_flags = flags; (flags = 0) cmpxchg(flags, old_flags, old_flags | IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (flags = 3) [...] flags = IRQ_WORK_BUSY (flags = 2) func() (sees flags = 3) cmpxchg(flags, old_flags, old_flags | IRQ_WORK_FLAGS) (give up) cmpxchg(flags, 2, 0); (flags = 0) CPU 1 claims a work and executes it, so it sets IRQ_WORK_BUSY and the work is again in a claimable state. Now CPU 2 has new data to process and try to claim that work but it may see a stale value of the flags and think the work is still pending somewhere that will handle our data. This is because CPU 1 doesn't set IRQ_WORK_BUSY atomically. As a result, the data expected to be handle by CPU 2 won't get handled. To fix this, use xchg() to set IRQ_WORK_BUSY, this way we ensure the CPU 2 will see the correct value with cmpxchg() using the expected ordering.

2012-04-02irq_work: fix compile failure on MIPS from system.h splitPaul Gortmaker
Builds of the MIPS platform ip32_defconfig fails as of commit 0195c00244dc ("Merge tag 'split-asm_system_h ...") because MIPS xchg() macro uses BUILD_BUG_ON and it was moved in commit b81947c646bf ("Disintegrate asm/system.h for MIPS"). The root cause is that the system.h split wasn't tested on a baseline with commit 6c03438edeb5 ("kernel.h: doesn't explicitly use bug.h, so don't include it.") Since this file uses BUG code in several other places besides the xchg call, simply make the inclusion explicit.

2011-10-31kernel: fix two implicit header assumptions in irq_work.cPaul Gortmaker
Up until now, this file was getting percpu.h because nearly every file was implicitly getting module.h (and all its sub-includes). But we want to clean that up, so call out percpu.h explicitly. Otherwise we'll get things like this on an ARM build: kernel/irq_work.c:48: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before 'irq_work_list' kernel/irq_work.c:48: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'DEFINE_PER_CPU' The same thing was happening for builds on ARM for asm/processor.h kernel/irq_work.c: In function 'irq_work_sync': kernel/irq_work.c:166: error: implicit declaration of function 'cpu_relax' Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-10-31kernel: Map most files to use export.h instead of module.hPaul Gortmaker

Nothing to see here but a whole lot of instances of: -#include <linux/module.h> +#include <linux/export.h> This commit is only changing the kernel dir; next targets will probably be mm, fs, the arch dirs, etc. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

2010-10-18irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacksPeter Zijlstra
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.
