While enabling and disabling a BPF scheduler, every task is iterated a couple times by walking scx_tasks. Except for one, all iterations keep holding scx_tasks_lock. On multi-socket systems under heavy rq lock contention and high number of threads, this can can lead to RCU and other stalls. The following is triggered on a 2 x AMD EPYC 7642 system (192 logical CPUs) running `stress-ng --workload 150 --workload-threads 10` with >400k idle threads and RCU stall period reduced to 5s: rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: rcu: 91-...!: (10 ticks this GP) idle=0754/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=18204/18206 fqs=17 rcu: 186-...!: (17 ticks this GP) idle=ec54/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=25863/25866 fqs=17 rcu: (detected by 80, t=10042 jiffies, g=89305, q=33 ncpus=192) Sending NMI from CPU 80 to CPUs 91: NMI backtrace for cpu 91 CPU: 91 UID: 0 PID: 284038 Comm: sched_ext_ops_h Kdump: loaded Not tainted 6.12.0-rc2-work-g6bf5681f7ee2-dirty #471 Hardware name: Supermicro Super Server/H11DSi, BIOS 2.8 12/14/2023 Sched_ext: simple (disabling+all) RIP: 0010:queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x17b/0x2f0 Code: 02 c0 10 03 00 83 79 08 00 75 08 f3 90 83 79 08 00 74 f8 48 8b 11 48 85 d2 74 09 0f 0d 0a eb 0a 31 d2 eb 06 31 d2 eb 02 f3 90 <8b> 07 66 85 c0 75 f7 39 d8 75 0d be 01 00 00 00 89 d8 f0 0f b1 37 RSP: 0018:ffffc9000fadfcb8 EFLAGS: 00000002 RAX: 0000000001700001 RBX: 0000000001700000 RCX: ffff88bfcaaf10c0 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000101 RDI: ffff88bfca8f0080 RBP: 0000000001700000 R08: 0000000000000090 R09: ffffffffffffffff R10: ffff88a74761b268 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff88a6b6765460 R13: ffffc9000fadfd60 R14: ffff88bfca8f0080 R15: ffff88bfcaac0000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88bfcaac0000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f5c55f526a0 CR3: 0000000afd474000 CR4: 0000000000350eb0 Call Trace: <NMI> </NMI> <TASK> do_raw_spin_lock+0x9c/0xb0 task_rq_lock+0x50/0x190 scx_task_iter_next_locked+0x157/0x170 scx_ops_disable_workfn+0x2c2/0xbf0 kthread_worker_fn+0x108/0x2a0 kthread+0xeb/0x110 ret_from_fork+0x36/0x40 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 </TASK> Sending NMI from CPU 80 to CPUs 186: NMI backtrace for cpu 186 CPU: 186 UID: 0 PID: 51248 Comm: fish Kdump: loaded Not tainted 6.12.0-rc2-work-g6bf5681f7ee2-dirty #471 scx_task_iter can safely drop locks while iterating. Make scx_task_iter_next() drop scx_tasks_lock every 32 iterations to avoid stalls. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: David Vernet <void@manifault.com>
