Subject: [PATCH] rcu/nocb: Fix rcuog wake-up from offline softirq
Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2024 18:36:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241010163609.51273-1-frederic@kernel.org> (raw)

After a CPU has set itself offline and before it eventually calls
rcutree_report_cpu_dead(), there are still opportunities for callbacks
to be enqueued, for example from a softirq. When that happens on NOCB,
the rcuog wake-up is deferred through an IPI to an online CPU in order
not to call into the scheduler and risk arming the RT-bandwidth after
hrtimers have been migrated out and disabled.

But performing a synchronized IPI from a softirq is buggy as reported in
the following scenario:

        WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 26 at kernel/smp.c:633 smp_call_function_single
        Modules linked in: rcutorture torture
        CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 26 Comm: migration/1 Not tainted 6.11.0-rc1-00012-g9139f93209d1 #1
        Stopper: multi_cpu_stop+0x0/0x320 <- __stop_cpus+0xd0/0x120
        RIP: 0010:smp_call_function_single
        <IRQ>
        swake_up_one_online
        __call_rcu_nocb_wake
        __call_rcu_common
        ? rcu_torture_one_read
        call_timer_fn
        __run_timers
        run_timer_softirq
        handle_softirqs
        irq_exit_rcu
        ? tick_handle_periodic
        sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt
        </IRQ>

Fix this with forcing deferred rcuog wake up through the NOCB timer when
the CPU is offline. The actual wake up will happen from
rcutree_report_cpu_dead().
