To: Tejun Heo, David Vernet, Changwoo Min; +Cc: linux-kernel
Some kfuncs provided by sched_ext may need to operate on a struct rq,
but they can be invoked from various contexts, specifically, different
scx callbacks.
While some of these callbacks are invoked with a particular rq already
locked, others are not. This makes it impossible for a kfunc to reliably
determine whether it's safe to access a given rq, triggering potential
bugs or unsafe behaviors, see for example [1].
To address this, track the currently locked rq whenever a sched_ext
callback is invoked via SCX_CALL_OP*().
This allows kfuncs that need to operate on an arbitrary rq to retrieve
the currently locked one and apply the appropriate action as needed.

Can this be a percpu variable? While rq is locked, current can't switch out
anyway and that way we don't have to increase the size of task. Note that
kf_tasks[] are different in that some ops may, at least theoretically,
sleep.

As these conditions are program-order checks on the local CPU, I don't think
any barrier is necessary.
Thanks.

Yeah, I was debating between using a percpu variable or storing it in
current. I went with current just to stay consistent with kf_tasks.
But you're right about not to increasing the size of the task, and as you
pointed out, we can’t switch if the rq is locked, so a percpu variable
should work. I’ll update that in v2.

Right, these are local CPU access only, I'll drop the barrier.

Hm... actually thinking more about this, a problem with the percpu variable
is that, if no rq is locked, we could move to a different CPU and end up
reading the wrong rq_locked via scx_locked_rq(). I don't think we want to
preempt_disable/enable all the callbacks just to fix this... Maybe storing
in current is a safer choice?

And if we don't want to increase the size of sched_ext_entity, we could
store the cpu of the currently locked rq, right before "disallow", like:
struct sched_ext_entity {
struct scx_dispatch_q * dsq; /* 0 8 */
struct scx_dsq_list_node dsq_list; /* 8 24 */
struct rb_node dsq_priq __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /* 32 24 */
u32 dsq_seq; /* 56 4 */
u32 dsq_flags; /* 60 4 */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
u32 flags; /* 64 4 */
u32 weight; /* 68 4 */
s32 sticky_cpu; /* 72 4 */
s32 holding_cpu; /* 76 4 */
s32 selected_cpu; /* 80 4 */
u32 kf_mask; /* 84 4 */
struct task_struct * kf_tasks[2]; /* 88 16 */
atomic_long_t ops_state; /* 104 8 */
struct list_head runnable_node; /* 112 16 */
/* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
long unsigned int runnable_at; /* 128 8 */
u64 core_sched_at; /* 136 8 */
u64 ddsp_dsq_id; /* 144 8 */
u64 ddsp_enq_flags; /* 152 8 */
u64 slice; /* 160 8 */
u64 dsq_vtime; /* 168 8 */
int locked_cpu; /* 176 4 */
bool disallow; /* 180 1 */
/* XXX 3 bytes hole, try to pack */
struct cgroup * cgrp_moving_from; /* 184 8 */
/* --- cacheline 3 boundary (192 bytes) --- */
struct list_head tasks_node; /* 192 16 */
/* size: 208, cachelines: 4, members: 24 */
/* sum members: 205, holes: 1, sum holes: 3 */
/* forced alignments: 1 */
/* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
} __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));
(before the hole was 7 bytes)
Then use cpu_rq()/cpu_of() to resolve that to/from the corresponding rq.

Hmm... I have a hard time imagining a timeline of events which would lead to
the wrong conclusion. The percpu variable is set only while an rq is locked
and cleared before the rq lock is released and thus can only be read as
non-NULL while the rq is locked by that CPU. Maybe I'm missing something.
Can you illustrate a timeline of events which would lead to the wrong
conclusion?
Thanks.

Oh ok, I was only thinking of setting the percpu variable when we call
SCX_CALL_OP*(), but if we clear it after the scx op returns, then it should
work. If no rq is locked and we bounce to a different CPU, we'd still read
NULL, so it should be always correct.
Alright, I'll send a v2 with this logic and the percpu variable.
Thanks,

Some kfuncs provided by sched_ext may need to operate on a struct rq,
but they can be invoked from various contexts, specifically, different
scx callbacks.
While some of these callbacks are invoked with a particular rq already
locked, others are not. This makes it impossible for a kfunc to reliably
determine whether it's safe to access a given rq, triggering potential
bugs or unsafe behaviors, see for example [1].
To address this, track the currently locked rq whenever a sched_ext
callback is invoked via SCX_CALL_OP*().
This allows kfuncs that need to operate on an arbitrary rq to retrieve
the currently locked one and apply the appropriate action as needed.

Or alternatively, drop `if (rq)` from both places. That's simpler and given
that all the hot paths are called with rq locked, that may be *minutely*
faster.

Let's do SCX_CALL_OP_TASK(SCX_FK_ENQUEUE, enqueue, rq, p, enq_flags) so that
the static parts of the invocation are grouped together and we usually have
@rq and @p next to each other when they're used as parameters.
Thanks.

Ack, let's not complicate the code unnecessarily, that's a negligible
optimization (I tried to remove that `if (rq)` and I don't see any
measurable difference, as expected).

Add rq lock tracking to sched_ext ops callbacks to enable scx_bpf_*()
kfuncs to detect whether a specific rq is currently locked and safely
operate with it.
If no rq is locked, the target rq lock can be acquired. If a different rq
is already locked, the operation can either fail (triggering an ops error),
deferred using IRQ work, or managed accordingly to avoid deadlocks.
This patchset is also available in the following git branch:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arighi/linux.git scx-rq-lock-tracking
Changes in v3:
- remove unnecessary rq != NULL optimization check in SCX_CALL_OP()
- reorder SCX_CALL_OP*() arguments to group static args together
- link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250420193106.42533-1-arighi@nvidia.com/
Changes in v2:
- store currently locked rq in a percpu variable
- link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250419123536.154469-1-arighi@nvidia.com

Some kfuncs provided by sched_ext may need to operate on a struct rq,
but they can be invoked from various contexts, specifically, different
scx callbacks.
While some of these callbacks are invoked with a particular rq already
locked, others are not. This makes it impossible for a kfunc to reliably
determine whether it's safe to access a given rq, triggering potential
bugs or unsafe behaviors, see for example [1].
To address this, track the currently locked rq whenever a sched_ext
callback is invoked via SCX_CALL_OP*().
This allows kfuncs that need to operate on an arbitrary rq to retrieve
the currently locked one and apply the appropriate action as needed.

scx_bpf_cpuperf_set() can be used to set a performance target level on
any CPU. However, it doesn't correctly acquire the corresponding rq
lock, which may lead to unsafe behavior and trigger the following
warning, due to the lockdep_assert_rq_held() check:
[ 51.713737] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 3899 at kernel/sched/sched.h:1512 scx_bpf_cpuperf_set+0x1a0/0x1e0

[ 51.713849] __sys_bpf+0x1934/0x22a0
Fix by properly acquiring the rq lock when possible or raising an error
if we try to operate on a CPU that is not the one currently locked.
Fixes: d86adb4fc0655 ("sched_ext: Add cpuperf support")

Applied to sched_ext/for-6.15-fixes and merged into for-6.16. It had a
couple minor conflictsapplying to for-6.15-fixes but the merged result on
for-6.16 is identical to applying directly to for-6.16, so it should be
okay.
Thanks.

This is hitting the following BUG() on some of my debug kernels:
BUG: using __this_cpu_write() in preemptible [00000000] code: scx_layered_6-9/68770
I have lockdep enabled, and I don't see the assert above. I am wondering
if rq is locked but preemption continues to be enabled (!?)
Also, I am wondering if the following patch would be useful.

We're not actually locking here, but we're checking if the rq that we pass
to update_locked_rq() is actually locked, since that's our assumption here.
The idea is to distinguish the sched_ext callbacks that are invoked with a
rq locked and those that are invoked from an unlocked context (and in this
case rq == NULL).

Interesting. And it makes sense, because we may have callbacks called from
a preemptible context (especially when rq == NULL).
I think we can just put a preempt_disable() / preempt_enable() around
__this_cpu_write(). If we jump to another CPU during the callback it's
fine, since we would track the rq state on the other CPU with its own local
variable. And if we were able to jump there, it means that preemption was
disabled as well.

We could do that as well and fix individual use cases, but I think adding
preempt_disable/enable() would be better. We do have callbacks that can be
called from a preemptible context.

First of all thanks for the suggestion!
What about a patch like the following:
commit 9ed31e914181ec8f2d0b4484c42b00b6794661b9
Author: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org>
Date: Wed Jul 16 03:10:59 2025 -0700
sched/ext: Suppress warning in __this_cpu_write() by disabling preemption
__this_cpu_write() emits a warning if used with preemption enabled.
Function update_locked_rq() might be called with preemption enabled,
which causes the following warning:
BUG: using __this_cpu_write() in preemptible [00000000] code: scx_layered_6-9/68770
Disable preemption around the __this_cpu_write() call in
update_locked_rq() to suppress the warning, without affecting behavior.
If preemption triggers a jump to another CPU during the callback it's
fine, since we would track the rq state on the other CPU with its own
local variable.
