Subject: [PATCH] [BUGFIX] crash/ioapic: Prevent crash_kexec() from deadlocking of ioapic_lock
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2013 17:12:20 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130819081220.24406.15846.stgit@yunodevel> (raw)
Prevent crash_kexec() from deadlocking of ioapic_lock. When crash_kexec()
is executed on a cpu, the cpu will get ioapic_lock in disable_IO_APIC().
So if the cpu gets NMI while locking ioapic_lock, a deadlock wiil happen.
In this patch, ioapic_lock is initialized before disable_IO_APIC().
To confirm this deadlocking, you'll set up as follows:
1. Add mdelay(1000) after raw_spin_lock_irqsave() in
native_ioapic_set_affinity()@arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c
Although the deadlocking can occur without this modification, it will
increase the potential of the deadlocking problem.
2. Build and install the kernel
3. Set up the OS which will run panic() and kexec when NMI is injected
# echo "kernel.unknown_nmi_panic=1" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
# vim /etc/default/grub
add "nmi_watchdog=0 crashkernel=256M" in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line
# grub2-mkconfig
4. Reboot the OS
5. Run following command for each vcpu on the guest
# while true; do echo <CPU num> > /proc/irq/<IO-APIC-edge or IO-APIC-fasteoi>/smp_affinitity; done;
By running this command, cpus will get ioapic_lock for setting affinity.
6. Inject NMI (push a dump button or execute 'virsh inject-nmi <domain>' if you
use VM)
After injecting NMI, panic() is called in an nmi-handler context.
Then, kexec will normally run in panic(), but the operation will be stopped
by deadlock of ioapic_lock in crash_kexec()->machine_crash_shutdown()->
native_machine_crash_shutdown()->disable_IO_APIC()->clear_IO_APIC()->
clear_IO_APIC_pin()->ioapic_read_entry().
