[PATCH v3 2/6] sched: Do not pick a task which is switching on other cpu

[Kirill Tkhai]

From: Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@parallels.com>

Architectures, which define __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW,
may pull a task when it's in the middle of schedule().

CPU1(task1 calls schedule)            CPU2
...                                   schedule()
...                                      idle_balance()
...                                         load_balance()
...                                            ...
schedule()                                     ...
   prepare_lock_switch()                       ...
      raw_spin_unlock(&rq1->lock)              ...
      ...                                      raw_spin_lock(&rq1->lock)
      ...                                         detach_tasks();
      ...                                            can_migrate_task(task1)
      ...                                         attach_tasks(); <--- move task1 to rq2
      ...                                      raw_spin_unlock(&rq1->lock)
      ...                                context_switch() <--- switch to task1's stack
      ...                                ...
   (using task1's stack)                 (using task1's stack)

   context_switch()                      ...


Parallel use of a single stack is not a good idea.

Indeed it is, but how about we do this instead?

Subject: sched,mips,ia64: Remove __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW

Kirill found that there's a subtle race in the
__ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW code, and instead of fixing it, remove the
entire exception because neither arch that uses it seems to actually
still require it.

Boot tested on mips64el (qemu) only.

sched, mips, ia64: Remove __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW

Kirill found that there's a subtle race in the
__ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW code, and instead of fixing it, remove the
entire exception because neither arch that uses it seems to actually
still require it.

Boot tested on mips64el (qemu) only.

[PATCH v3 3/6] sched: Use dl_bw_of() under RCU read lock

[Kirill Tkhai]

From: Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@parallels.com>

dl_bw_of() dereferences rq->rd which has to have RCU read lock held.
Probability of use-after-free isn't zero here.

Also add lockdep assert into dl_bw_cpus().
