2015-03-01locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on errorSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-0/+1
The "usual" path is: - rt_mutex_slowlock() - set_current_state() - task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() (ret 0) - __rt_mutex_slowlock() - sleep or not but do return with __set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) - back to caller. In the early error case where task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() return -EDEADLK we never change the task's state back to RUNNING. I assume this is intended.

2015-02-19debug: prevent entering debug mode on panic/exception.Colin Cross1-0/+17
On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting after a panic. Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to interact with debugger. To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via /proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the default value. Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting for the user input incase of panic.

2015-02-19kdb: Provide forward search at more promptDaniel Thompson3-5/+26
Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the | grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a useful trigger string *before* the point of interest. This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

2015-02-19kdb: Fix a prompt management bug when using | grepDaniel Thompson1-2/+2
Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command. Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed. This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag from the middle of command processing to the beginning.

2015-02-19kdb: Remove stack dump when entering kgdb due to NMIDaniel Thompson1-1/+0
Issuing a stack dump feels ergonomically wrong when entering due to NMI. Entering due to NMI is normally a reaction to a user request, either the NMI button on a server or a "magic knock" on a UART. Therefore the backtrace behaviour on entry due to NMI should be like SysRq-g (no stack dump) rather than like oops. Note also that the stack dump does not offer any information that cannot be trivial retrieved using the 'bt' command.

2015-02-19kdb: Avoid printing KERN_ levels to consolesDaniel Thompson2-10/+14
Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix (consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to that of kdb's "sr h". This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to printk(). The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit 04d2c8c83d0e ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

2015-02-18sched/autogroup: Fix failure to set cpu.rt_runtime_usPeter Zijlstra2-5/+7
Because task_group() uses a cache of autogroup_task_group(), whose output depends on sched_class, switching classes can generate problems. In particular, when started as fair, the cache points to the autogroup, so when switching to RT the tg_rt_schedulable() test fails for every cpu.rt_{runtime,period}_us change because now the autogroup has tasks and no runtime. Furthermore, going back to the previous semantics of varying task_group() with sched_class has the down-side that the sched_debug output varies as well, even though the task really is in the autogroup. Therefore add an autogroup exception to tg_has_rt_tasks() -- such that both (all) task_group() usages in sched/core now have one. And remove all the remnants of the variable task_group() output.

2015-02-18ntp: Fixup adjtimex freq validation on 32-bit systemsJohn Stultz1-3/+7
Additional validation of adjtimex freq values to avoid potential multiplication overflows were added in commit 5e5aeb4367b (time: adjtimex: Validate the ADJ_FREQUENCY values) Unfortunately the patch used LONG_MAX/MIN instead of LLONG_MAX/MIN, which was fine on 64-bit systems, but being much smaller on 32-bit systems caused false positives resulting in most direct frequency adjustments to fail w/ EINVAL. ntpd only does direct frequency adjustments at startup, so the issue was not as easily observed there, but other time sync applications like ptpd and chrony were more effected by the bug. See bugs: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92481 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1188074 This patch changes the checks to use LLONG_MAX for clarity, and additionally the checks are disabled on 32-bit systems since LLONG_MAX/PPM_SCALE is always larger then the 32-bit long freq value, so multiplication overflows aren't possible there.

2015-02-18sched: Prevent recursion in io_schedule()NeilBrown1-19/+12
io_schedule() calls blk_flush_plug() which, depending on the contents of current->plug, can initiate arbitrary blk-io requests. Note that this contrasts with blk_schedule_flush_plug() which requires all non-trivial work to be handed off to a separate thread. This makes it possible for io_schedule() to recurse, and initiating block requests could possibly call mempool_alloc() which, in times of memory pressure, uses io_schedule(). Apart from any stack usage issues, io_schedule() will not behave correctly when called recursively as delayacct_blkio_start() does not allow for repeated calls. So: - use ->in_iowait to detect recursion. Set it earlier, and restore it to the old value. - move the call to "raw_rq" after the call to blk_flush_plug(). As this is some sort of per-cpu thing, we want some chance that we are on the right CPU - When io_schedule() is called recurively, use blk_schedule_flush_plug() which cannot further recurse. - as this makes io_schedule() a lot more complex and as io_schedule() must match io_schedule_timeout(), but all the changes in io_schedule_timeout() and make io_schedule a simple wrapper for that.

2015-02-18sched: Fix preempt_schedule_common() triggering tracing recursionFrederic Weisbecker1-1/+1
Since the function graph tracer needs to disable preemption, it might call preempt_schedule() after reenabling it if something triggered the need for rescheduling in between. Therefore we can't trace preempt_schedule() itself because we would face a function tracing recursion otherwise as the tracer is always called before PREEMPT_ACTIVE gets set to prevent that recursion. This is why preempt_schedule() is tagged as "notrace". But the same issue applies to every function called by preempt_schedule() before PREEMPT_ACTIVE is actually set. And preempt_schedule_common() is one such example. Unfortunately we forgot to tag it as notrace as well and as a result we are encountering tracing recursion since it got introduced by: a18b5d0181923 ("sched: Fix missing preemption opportunity") Let's fix that by applying the appropriate function tag to preempt_schedule_common().

This happens, when it becomes throttled in schedule(), which is called to go to sleep: current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE; schedule() deactivate_task() dequeue_task_dl() update_curr_dl() start_dl_timer() __dequeue_task_dl() prev->on_rq = 0; This invalidates the assumption from commit 0f397f2c90ce ("sched/dl: Fix race in dl_task_timer()"): "The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are thus free of ttwu races". And therefore we have to use the full task_rq_lock() here. This further amends the fact that we forgot to update the rq lock loop for TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATE, from commit cca26e8009d1 ("sched: Teach scheduler to understand TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING state").

2015-02-18locking/rtmutex: Avoid a NULL pointer dereference on deadlockSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-1/+2
With task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() returning early -EDEADLK we never add the waiter to the waitqueue. Later, we try to remove it via remove_waiter() and go boom in rt_mutex_top_waiter() because rb_entry() gives a NULL pointer. ( Tested on v3.18-RT where rtmutex is used for regular mutex and I tried to get one twice in a row. ) Not sure when this started but I guess 397335f004f4 ("rtmutex: Fix deadlock detector for real") or commit 3d5c9340d194 ("rtmutex: Handle deadlock detection smarter").

2015-02-15PM / sleep: Make it possible to quiesce timers during suspend-to-idleRafael J. Wysocki3-2/+54
The efficiency of suspend-to-idle depends on being able to keep CPUs in the deepest available idle states for as much time as possible. Ideally, they should only be brought out of idle by system wakeup interrupts. However, timer interrupts occurring periodically prevent that from happening and it is not practical to chase all of the "misbehaving" timers in a whack-a-mole fashion. A much more effective approach is to suspend the local ticks for all CPUs and the entire timekeeping along the lines of what is done during full suspend, which also helps to keep suspend-to-idle and full suspend reasonably similar. The idea is to suspend the local tick on each CPU executing cpuidle_enter_freeze() and to make the last of them suspend the entire timekeeping. That should prevent timer interrupts from triggering until an IO interrupt wakes up one of the CPUs. It needs to be done with interrupts disabled on all of the CPUs, though, because otherwise the suspended clocksource might be accessed by an interrupt handler which might lead to fatal consequences. Unfortunately, the existing ->enter callbacks provided by cpuidle drivers generally cannot be used for implementing that, because some of them re-enable interrupts temporarily and some idle entry methods cause interrupts to be re-enabled automatically on exit. Also some of these callbacks manipulate local clock event devices of the CPUs which really shouldn't be done after suspending their ticks. To overcome that difficulty, introduce a new cpuidle state callback, ->enter_freeze, that will be guaranteed (1) to keep interrupts disabled all the time (and return with interrupts disabled) and (2) not to touch the CPU timer devices. Modify cpuidle_enter_freeze() to look for the deepest available idle state with ->enter_freeze present and to make the CPU execute that callback with suspended tick (and the last of the online CPUs to execute it with suspended timekeeping).

2015-02-15timekeeping: Make it safe to use the fast timekeeper while suspendedRafael J. Wysocki1-0/+30
Theoretically, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() may be executed after timekeeping has been suspended (or before it is resumed) which in turn may lead to undefined behavior, for example, when the clocksource read from timekeeping_get_ns() called by it is not accessible at that time. Prevent that from happening by setting up a dummy readout base for the fast timekeeper during timekeeping_suspend() such that it will always return the same number of cycles. After the last timekeeping_update() in timekeeping_suspend() the clocksource is read and the result is stored as cycles_at_suspend. The readout base from the current timekeeper is copied onto the dummy and the ->read pointer of the dummy is set to a routine unconditionally returning cycles_at_suspend. Next, the dummy is passed to update_fast_timekeeper(). Then, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() will work until the subsequent timekeeping_resume() and the proper readout base for the fast timekeeper will be restored by the timekeeping_update() called right after clearing timekeeping_suspended.
