Letting user space poke directly at variables which are used at run time is stupid and causes a lot of race conditions and other issues. Seperate the user variables and on change invoke the reconfiguration, which then stops the watchdogs, reevaluates the new user value and restarts the watchdogs with the new parameters. Signed-off-by:

Both the perf reconfiguration and the powerpc watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() need to be done in two steps. 1) Stop all NMIs 2) Read the new parameters and start NMIs Right now watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() is a combination of both. To allow a clean reconfiguration add a 'run' argument and split the functionality in powerpc. Signed-off-by: -

The sysctl of the nmi_watchdog file prevents writes by setting: min = max = 0 if none of the users is enabled. That involves ifdeffery and is competely non obvious. If none of the facilities is enabeld, then the file can simply be made read only. Move the ifdeffery into the header and use a constant for file permissions. Signed-off-by: -

The lockup detector reconfiguration tears down all watchdog threads when the watchdog is disabled and sets them up again when its enabled. That's a pointless exercise. The watchdog threads are not consuming an insane amount of resources, so it's enough to set them up at init time and keep them in parked position when the watchdog is disabled and unpark them when it is reenabled. The smpboot thread infrastructure takes care of keeping the force parked threads in place even across cpu hotplug. Aside of that the code implements the park/unpark facility of smp hotplug threads on its own, which is even more pointless. We have functionality in the smpboot thread code to do so. Use the new thread management functions and get rid of the unholy mess. Signed-off-by:

The smpboot thread infrastructure takes care of keeping the force parked threads in place even across cpu hotplug. Another horrible mechanism are the open coded park/unpark loops which are used for reconfiguration of the watchdog. The smpboot infrastructure allows exactly the same via smpboot_update_cpumask_thread_percpu(), which is cpu hotplug safe. Using that instead of the open coded loops allows to get rid of the hotplug locking mess in the watchdog code. Implement a clean infrastructure which allows to replace the open coded nonsense.

smpboot_update_cpumask_threads_percpu() allocates a temporary cpumask at runtime. This is suboptimal because the call site needs more code size for proper error handling than a statically allocated temporary mask requires data size. Add static temporary cpumask. The function is globaly serialized, so no further protection required. Remove the half baken error handling in the watchdog code and get rid of the export as there are no in tree modular users of that function. Signed-off-by:

Commit: b94f5118 ("kernel/watchdog: prevent false hardlockup on overloaded system") tries to fix the following issue: proc_write() set_sample_period() <--- New sample period becoms visible <----- Broken starts proc_watchdog_update() watchdog_enable_all_cpus() watchdog_hrtimer_fn() update_watchdog_all_cpus() restart_timer(sample_period) watchdog_park_threads() thread->park() disable_nmi() <----- Broken ends The reason why this is broken is that the update of the watchdog threshold becomes immediately effective and visible for the hrtimer function which uses that value to rearm the timer. But the NMI/perf side still uses the old value up to the point where it is disabled. If the rate has been lowered then the NMI can run fast enough to 'detect' a hard lockup because the timer has not fired due to the longer period. The patch 'fixed' this by adding a variable: proc_write() set_sample_period() <----- Broken starts proc_watchdog_update() watchdog_enable_all_cpus() watchdog_hrtimer_fn() update_watchdog_all_cpus() restart_timer(sample_period) watchdog_park_threads() park_in_progress = 1 <----- Broken ends nmi_watchdog() if (park_in_progress) return; The only effect of this variable was to make the window where the breakage can hit small enough that it was not longer observable in testing. From a correctness point of view it is a pointless bandaid which merily papers over the root cause: the unsychronized update of the variable. Looking deeper into the related code pathes unearthed similar problems in the watchdog_start()/stop() functions. watchdog_start() perf_nmi_event_start() hrtimer_start() watchdog_stop() hrtimer_cancel() perf_nmi_event_stop() In both cases the call order is wrong because if the tasks gets preempted or the VM gets scheduled out long enough after the first call, then there is a chance that the next NMI will see a stale hrtimer interrupt count and trigger a false positive hard lockup splat. Get rid of park_in_progress so the code can be gradually deobfuscated and pruned from several layers of duct tape papering over the root cause, which has been either ignored or not understood at all. Once this is removed the underlying problem will be fixed by rewriting the proc interface to do a proper synchronized update. Address the start/stop() ordering problem as well by reverting the call order, so this part is at least correct now. Signed-off-by:

The following deadlock is possible in the watchdog hotplug code: cpus_write_lock() ... takedown_cpu() smpboot_park_threads() smpboot_park_thread() kthread_park() ->park() := watchdog_disable() watchdog_nmi_disable() perf_event_release_kernel(); put_event() _free_event() ->destroy() := hw_perf_event_destroy() x86_release_hardware() release_ds_buffers() get_online_cpus() when a per cpu watchdog perf event is destroyed which drops the last reference to the PMU hardware. The cleanup code there invokes get_online_cpus() which instantly deadlocks because the hotplug percpu rwsem is write locked. To solve this add a deferring mechanism: cpus_write_lock() kthread_park() watchdog_nmi_disable(deferred) perf_event_disable(event); move_event_to_deferred(event); .... cpus_write_unlock() cleaup_deferred_events() perf_event_release_kernel() This is still properly serialized against concurrent hotplug via the cpu_add_remove_lock, which is held by the task which initiated the hotplug event. This is also used to handle event destruction when the watchdog threads are parked via other mechanisms than CPU hotplug. Analyzed-by:Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Reported-by:

The self disabling feature is broken vs. CPU hotplug locking: CPU 0 CPU 1 cpus_write_lock(); cpu_up(1) wait_for_completion() .... unpark_watchdog() ->unpark() perf_event_create() <- fails watchdog_enable &= ~NMI_WATCHDOG; .... cpus_write_unlock(); CPU 2 cpus_write_lock() cpu_down(2) wait_for_completion() wakeup(watchdog); watchdog() if (!(watchdog_enable & NMI_WATCHDOG)) watchdog_nmi_disable() perf_event_disable() .... cpus_read_lock(); stop_smpboot_threads() park_watchdog(); wait_for_completion(watchdog->parked); Result: End of hotplug and instantaneous full lockup of the machine. There is a similar problem with disabling the watchdog via the user space interface as the sysctl function fiddles with watchdog_enable directly. It's very debatable whether this is required at all. If the watchdog works nicely on N CPUs and it fails to enable on the N + 1 CPU either during hotplug or because the user space interface disabled it via sysctl cpumask and then some perf user grabbed the counter which is then unavailable for the watchdog when the sysctl cpumask gets changed back. There is no real justification for this. One of the reasons WHY this is done is the utter stupidity of the init code of the perf NMI watchdog. Instead of checking upfront at boot whether PERF is available and functional at all, it just does this check at run time over and over when user space fiddles with the sysctl. That's broken beyond repair along with the idiotic error code dependent warn level printks and the even more silly printk rate limiting. If the init code checks whether perf works at boot time, then this mess can be more or less avoided completely. Perf does not come magically into life at runtime. Brain usage while coding is overrated. Remove the cruft and add a temporary safe guard which gets removed later. Signed-off-by:

The watchdog proc interface causes extensive recursive locking of the CPU hotplug percpu rwsem, which is deadlock prone. Replace the get/put_online_cpus() pairs with cpu_hotplug_disable()/enable() calls for now. Later patches will remove that requirement completely. Reported-by:

This interface has several issues: - It's causing recursive locking of the hotplug lock. - It's complete overkill to teardown all threads and then recreate them The same can be achieved with the simple hardlockup_detector_perf_stop / restart() interfaces.

The lockup_detector_suspend/resume() interface is broken in several ways especially as it results in recursive locking of the CPU hotplug lock. Use the new stop/restart interface in the perf NMI watchdog to temporarily disable and reenable the already active watchdog events. That's enough to handle it. Signed-off-by:

Provide an interface to stop and restart perf NMI watchdog events on all CPUs. This is only usable during init and especially for handling the perf HT bug on Intel machines. It's safe to use it this way as nothing can start/stop the NMI watchdog in parallel. Signed-off-by:

Another merge window, another MAINTAINERS file disaster. People have serious problems with the alphabet and sorting, and poor Jérôme Glisse and Radim Krčmář get their names mangled by locale issues, turning them into some mangled mess (probably others do too, but those two stood out when sorting things again). And we now have two copies of the same 'AS3645A LED FLASH CONTROLLER DRIVER' in the tree and in the MAINTAINERS file, but that's a separate issue - the duplication is real, and I left them as two entries for the same name. This does not try to sort the actual section pattern entries, although I may end up doing that later. Signed-off-by:Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
