commit 50caf9c14b1498c90cf808dbba2ca29bd32ccba4 upstream.

Now that we have set_affinity_pending::stop_pending to indicate if a
stopper is in progress, and we have the guarantee that if that stopper
exists, it will (eventually) complete our @pending we can simplify the
refcount scheme by no longer counting the stopper thread.

commit 9e81889c7648d48dd5fe13f41cbc99f3c362484a upstream.

Consider:

   sched_setaffinity(p, X);		sched_setaffinity(p, Y);

Then the first will install p-&gt;migration_pending = &amp;my_pending; and
issue stop_one_cpu_nowait(pending); and the second one will read
p-&gt;migration_pending and _also_ issue: stop_one_cpu_nowait(pending),
the _SAME_ @pending.

This causes stopper list corruption.

Add set_affinity_pending::stop_pending, to indicate if a stopper is in
progress.

When affine_move_task() issues a migration_cpu_stop(), the purpose of
that function is to complete that @pending, not any random other
p-&gt;migration_pending that might have gotten installed since.

This realization much simplifies migration_cpu_stop() and allows
further necessary steps to fix all this as it provides the guarantee
that @pending's stopper will complete @pending (and not some random
other @pending).

commit ce29ddc47b91f97e7f69a0fb7cbb5845f52a9825 upstream.

The function sync_runqueues_membarrier_state() should copy the
membarrier state from the @mm received as parameter to each runqueue
currently running tasks using that mm.

However, the use of smp_call_function_many() skips the current runqueue,
which is unintended. Replace by a call to on_each_cpu_mask().

commit 8a6edb5257e2a84720fe78cb179eca58ba76126f upstream.

When affine_move_task(p) is called on a running task @p, which is not
otherwise already changing affinity, we'll first set
p-&gt;migration_pending and then do:

	 stop_one_cpu(cpu_of_rq(rq), migration_cpu_stop, &amp;arg);

This then gets us to migration_cpu_stop() running on the CPU that was
previously running our victim task @p.

If we find that our task is no longer on that runqueue (this can
happen because of a concurrent migration due to load-balance etc.),
then we'll end up at the:

	} else if (dest_cpu &lt; 1 || pending) {

branch. Which we'll take because we set pending earlier. Here we first
check if the task @p has already satisfied the affinity constraints,
if so we bail early [A]. Otherwise we'll reissue migration_cpu_stop()
onto the CPU that is now hosting our task @p:

	stop_one_cpu_nowait(cpu_of(rq), migration_cpu_stop,
			    &amp;pending-&gt;arg, &amp;pending-&gt;stop_work);

Except, we've never initialized pending-&gt;arg, which will be all 0s.

This then results in running migration_cpu_stop() on the next CPU with
arg-&gt;p == NULL, which gives the by now obvious result of fireworks.

The cure is to change affine_move_task() to always use pending-&gt;arg,
furthermore we can use the exact same pattern as the
SCA_MIGRATE_ENABLE case, since we'll block on the pending-&gt;done
completion anyway, no point in adding yet another completion in
stop_one_cpu().

This then gives a clear distinction between the two
migration_cpu_stop() use cases:

  - sched_exec() / migrate_task_to() : arg-&gt;pending == NULL
  - affine_move_task() : arg-&gt;pending != NULL;

And we can have it ignore p-&gt;migration_pending when !arg-&gt;pending. Any
stop work from sched_exec() / migrate_task_to() is in addition to stop
works from affine_move_task(), which will be sufficient to issue the
completion.

<title>sched/features: Fix hrtick reprogramming</title>

[ Upstream commit 156ec6f42b8d300dbbf382738ff35c8bad8f4c3a ]

Hung tasks and RCU stall cases were reported on systems which were not
100% busy. Investigation of such unexpected cases (no sign of potential
starvation caused by tasks hogging the system) pointed out that the
periodic sched tick timer wasn't serviced anymore after a certain point
and that caused all machinery that depends on it (timers, RCU, etc.) to
stop working as well. This issues was however only reproducible if
HRTICK was enabled.

Looking at core dumps it was found that the rbtree of the hrtimer base
used also for the hrtick was corrupted (i.e. next as seen from the base
root and actual leftmost obtained by traversing the tree are different).
Same base is also used for periodic tick hrtimer, which might get "lost"
if the rbtree gets corrupted.

Much alike what described in commit 1f71addd34f4c ("tick/sched: Do not
mess with an enqueued hrtimer") there is a race window between
hrtimer_set_expires() in hrtick_start and hrtimer_start_expires() in
__hrtick_restart() in which the former might be operating on an already
queued hrtick hrtimer, which might lead to corruption of the base.

Use hrtick_start() (which removes the timer before enqueuing it back) to
ensure hrtick hrtimer reprogramming is entirely guarded by the base
lock, so that no race conditions can occur.

[ Upstream commit 156ec6f42b8d300dbbf382738ff35c8bad8f4c3a ]

Hung tasks and RCU stall cases were reported on systems which were not
100% busy. Investigation of such unexpected cases (no sign of potential
starvation caused by tasks hogging the system) pointed out that the
periodic sched tick timer wasn't serviced anymore after a certain point
and that caused all machinery that depends on it (timers, RCU, etc.) to
stop working as well. This issues was however only reproducible if
HRTICK was enabled.

Looking at core dumps it was found that the rbtree of the hrtimer base
used also for the hrtick was corrupted (i.e. next as seen from the base
root and actual leftmost obtained by traversing the tree are different).
Same base is also used for periodic tick hrtimer, which might get "lost"
if the rbtree gets corrupted.

Much alike what described in commit 1f71addd34f4c ("tick/sched: Do not
mess with an enqueued hrtimer") there is a race window between
hrtimer_set_expires() in hrtick_start and hrtimer_start_expires() in
__hrtick_restart() in which the former might be operating on an already
queued hrtick hrtimer, which might lead to corruption of the base.

Use hrtick_start() (which removes the timer before enqueuing it back) to
ensure hrtick hrtimer reprogramming is entirely guarded by the base
lock, so that no race conditions can occur.

<title>sched/core: Allow try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled</title>

commit 1b7af295541d75535374325fd617944534853919 upstream.

The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function currently requires
that interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts
disabled from rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not
enabled as expected" diagnostic.  This commit therefore updates
try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to use raw_spin_lock_irqsave() instead
of raw_spin_lock_irq(), thus allowing use from either context.

<title>rcu/nocb: Perform deferred wake up before last idle's need_resched() check</title>

commit 43789ef3f7d61aa7bed0cb2764e588fc990c30ef upstream.

Entering RCU idle mode may cause a deferred wake up of an RCU NOCB_GP
kthread (rcuog) to be serviced.

Usually a local wake up happening while running the idle task is handled
in one of the need_resched() checks carefully placed within the idle
loop that can break to the scheduler.

Unfortunately the call to rcu_idle_enter() is already beyond the last
generic need_resched() check and we may halt the CPU with a resched
request unhandled, leaving the task hanging.

Fix this with splitting the rcuog wakeup handling from rcu_idle_enter()
and place it before the last generic need_resched() check in the idle
loop. It is then assumed that no call to call_rcu() will be performed
after that in the idle loop until the CPU is put in low power mode.

Fixes: 96d3fd0d315a (rcu: Break call_rcu() deadlock involving scheduler and perf)
