Now that we have no missing calls, add a warning to find multiple calls. By having only a single update_rq_clock() call per rq-lock section, the section appears 'atomic' wrt time.

While looking into optimizations for the RT scheduler IPI logic, I realized that the comments are lacking to describe it efficiently. It deserves a lengthy description describing its design.

I was testing Daniel's changes with his test case, and tweaked it a little. Instead of having the runtime equal to the deadline, I increased the deadline ten fold. Daniel's test case had: attr.sched_runtime = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */ attr.sched_deadline = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */ attr.sched_period = 2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 s */ To make it more interesting, I changed it to: attr.sched_runtime = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */ attr.sched_deadline = 20 * 1000 * 1000; /* 20 ms */ attr.sched_period = 2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 s */ The results were rather surprising. The behavior that Daniel's patch was fixing came back. The task started using much more than .1% of the CPU. More like 20%. Looking into this I found that it was due to the dl_entity_overflow() constantly returning true. That's because it uses the relative period against relative runtime vs the absolute deadline against absolute runtime. runtime / (deadline - t) > dl_runtime / dl_period There's even a comment mentioning this, and saying that when relative deadline equals relative period, that the equation is the same as using deadline instead of period. That comment is backwards! What we really want is: runtime / (deadline - t) > dl_runtime / dl_deadline We care about if the runtime can make its deadline, not its period. And then we can say "when the deadline equals the period, the equation is the same as using dl_period instead of dl_deadline". After correcting this, now when the task gets enqueued, it can throttle correctly, and Daniel's fix to the throttling of sleeping deadline tasks works even when the runtime and deadline are not the same.

During the activation, CBS checks if it can reuse the current task's runtime and period. If the deadline of the task is in the past, CBS cannot use the runtime, and so it replenishes the task. This rule works fine for implicit deadline tasks (deadline == period), and the CBS was designed for implicit deadline tasks. However, a task with constrained deadline (deadine < period) might be awakened after the deadline, but before the next period. In this case, replenishing the task would allow it to run for runtime / deadline. As in this case deadline < period, CBS enables a task to run for more than the runtime / period. In a very loaded system, this can cause a domino effect, making other tasks miss their deadlines. To avoid this problem, in the activation of a constrained deadline task after the deadline but before the next period, throttle the task and set the replenishing timer to the begin of the next period, unless it is boosted. Reproducer: --------------- %< --------------- int main (int argc, char **argv) { int ret; int flags = 0; unsigned long l = 0; struct timespec ts; struct sched_attr attr; memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr)); attr.size = sizeof(attr); attr.sched_policy = SCHED_DEADLINE; attr.sched_runtime = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */ attr.sched_deadline = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */ attr.sched_period = 2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 s */ ts.tv_sec = 0; ts.tv_nsec = 2000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */ ret = sched_setattr(0, &attr, flags); if (ret < 0) { perror("sched_setattr"); exit(-1); } for(;;) { /* XXX: you may need to adjust the loop */ for (l = 0; l < 150000; l++); /* * The ideia is to go to sleep right before the deadline * and then wake up before the next period to receive * a new replenishment. */ nanosleep(&ts, NULL); } exit(0); } --------------- >% --------------- On my box, this reproducer uses almost 50% of the CPU time, which is obviously wrong for a task with 2/2000 reservation.

Daniel Bristot de Oliveira authored
Currently, the replenishment timer is set to fire at the deadline of a task. Although that works for implicit deadline tasks because the deadline is equals to the begin of the next period, that is not correct for constrained deadline tasks (deadline < period). For instance: f.c: --------------- %< --------------- int main (void) { for(;;); } --------------- >% --------------- # gcc -o f f.c # trace-cmd record -e sched:sched_switch \ -e syscalls:sys_exit_sched_setattr \ chrt -d --sched-runtime 490000000 \ --sched-deadline 500000000 \ --sched-period 1000000000 0 ./f # trace-cmd report | grep "{pid of ./f}" After setting parameters, the task is replenished and continue running until being throttled: f-11295 [003] 13322.113776: sys_exit_sched_setattr: 0x0 The task is throttled after running 492318 ms, as expected: f-11295 [003] 13322.606094: sched_switch: f:11295 [-1] R ==> watchdog/3:32 [0] But then, the task is replenished 500719 ms after the first replenishment: <idle>-0 [003] 13322.614495: sched_switch: swapper/3:0 [120] R ==> f:11295 [-1] Running for 490277 ms: f-11295 [003] 13323.104772: sched_switch: f:11295 [-1] R ==> swapper/3:0 [120] Hence, in the first period, the task runs 2 * runtime, and that is a bug. During the first replenishment, the next deadline is set one period away. So the runtime / period starts to be respected. However, as the second replenishment took place in the wrong instant, the next replenishment will also be held in a wrong instant of time. Rather than occurring in the nth period away from the first activation, it is taking place in the (nth period - relative deadline).

'calc_load_update' is accessed without any kind of locking and there's a clear assumption in the code that only a single value is read or written. Make this explicit by using READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE(), and avoid unintentionally seeing multiple values, or having the load/stores split. Technically the loads in calc_global_*() don't require this since those are the only functions that update 'calc_load_update', but I've added the READ_ONCE() for consistency.

If we crossed a sample window while in NO_HZ we will add LOAD_FREQ to the pending sample window time on exit, setting the next update not one window into the future, but two. This situation on exiting NO_HZ is described by: this_rq->calc_load_update < jiffies < calc_load_update In this scenario, what we should be doing is: this_rq->calc_load_update = calc_load_update [ next window ] But what we actually do is: this_rq->calc_load_update = calc_load_update + LOAD_FREQ [ next+1 window ] This has the effect of delaying load average updates for potentially up to ~9seconds. This can result in huge spikes in the load average values due to per-cpu uninterruptible task counts being out of sync when accumulated across all CPUs. It's safe to update the per-cpu active count if we wake between sample windows because any load that we left in 'calc_load_idle' will have been zero'd when the idle load was folded in calc_global_load(). This issue is easy to reproduce before, commit 9d89c257 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking") just by forking short-lived process pipelines built from ps(1) and grep(1) in a loop. I'm unable to reproduce the spikes after that commit, but the bug still seems to be present from code review.

The more significant portions: Patch #1 would cause timeout when qedr utilizes the highest CIDs availble for it [or when future qede adapters would utilize queues in some constellations]. Patch #4 fixes a leak of mapped addresses; When iommu is enabled, offloaded storage protocols might eventually run out of resources and fail to map additional buffers.

Before iterating over the the LL2 Rx ring, the ring's spinlock is taken via spin_lock_irqsave(). The actual processing of the packet [including handling by the protocol driver] is done without said lock, so qed releases the spinlock and re-claims it afterwards. Problem is that the final spin_lock_irqrestore() at the end of the iteration uses the original flags saved from the initial irqsave() instead of the flags from the most recent irqsave(). So it's possible that the interrupt status would be incorrect at the end of the processing.

The Doorbell HW block can be configured at a granularity of 16 x CIDs, so we need to make sure that the actual number of CIDs configured would be a multiplication of 16. Today, when RoCE is enabled - given that the number is unaligned, doorbelling the higher CIDs would fail to reach the firmware and would eventually timeout.

When we notify peers of potential changes, it's also good to update IGMP memberships.

This patch fixes a memory leak, which happens if the connection request is not fulfilled between parsing the DCCP options and handling the SYN (because e.g. the backlog is full), because we forgot to free the list of ack vectors.

aszlig observed failing ssh tunnels (-w) during initialization since commit cc9da6cc ("ipv6: addrconf: use stable address generator for ARPHRD_NONE"). We already had reports that the mentioned commit breaks Juniper VPN connections. I can't clearly say that the Juniper VPN client has the same problem, but it is worth a try to hint to this patch. Because of the early generation of link local addresses, the kernel now can start asking for routers on the local subnet much earlier than usual. Those router solicitation packets arrive inside the ssh channels and should be transmitted to the tun fd before the configuration scripts might have upped the interface and made it ready for transmission. ssh polls on the interface and receives back a POLL_OUT. It tries to send the earily router solicitation packet to the tun interface. Unfortunately it hasn't been up'ed yet by config scripts, thus failing with -EIO. ssh doesn't retry again and considers the tun interface broken forever.

As Eric Dumazet pointed out this also needs to be fixed in IPv6. v2: Contains the IPv6 tcp/Ipv6 dccp patches as well. We have seen a few incidents lately where a dst_enty has been freed with a dangling TCP socket reference (sk->sk_dst_cache) pointing to that dst_entry. If the conditions/timings are right a crash then ensues when the freed dst_entry is referenced later on. A Common crashing back trace is: #8 [] page_fault at ffffffff8163e648 [exception RIP: __tcp_ack_snd_check+74] . . #9 [] tcp_rcv_established at ffffffff81580b64 #10 [] tcp_v4_do_rcv at ffffffff8158b54a #11 [] tcp_v4_rcv at ffffffff8158cd02 #12 [] ip_local_deliver_finish at ffffffff815668f4 #13 [] ip_local_deliver at ffffffff81566bd9 #14 [] ip_rcv_finish at ffffffff8156656d #15 [] ip_rcv at ffffffff81566f06 #16 [] __netif_receive_skb_core at ffffffff8152b3a2 #17 [] __netif_receive_skb at ffffffff8152b608 #18 [] netif_receive_skb at ffffffff8152b690 #19 [] vmxnet3_rq_rx_complete at ffffffffa015eeaf [vmxnet3] #20 [] vmxnet3_poll_rx_only at ffffffffa015f32a [vmxnet3] #21 [] net_rx_action at ffffffff8152bac2 #22 [] __do_softirq at ffffffff81084b4f #23 [] call_softirq at ffffffff8164845c #24 [] do_softirq at ffffffff81016fc5 #25 [] irq_exit at ffffffff81084ee5 #26 [] do_IRQ at ffffffff81648ff8 Of course it may happen with other NIC drivers as well. It's found the freed dst_entry here: 224 static bool tcp_in_quickack_mode(struct sock *sk)
↩ 225 {↩ 226 ▹ const struct inet_connection_sock *icsk = inet_csk(sk);↩ 227 ▹ const struct dst_entry *dst = __sk_dst_get(sk);↩ 228↩ 229 ▹ return (dst && dst_metric(dst, RTAX_QUICKACK)) ||↩ 230 ▹ ▹ (icsk->icsk_ack.quick && !icsk->icsk_ack.pingpong);↩ 231 }↩ But there are other backtraces attributed to the same freed dst_entry in netfilter code as well. All the vmcores showed 2 significant clues: - Remote hosts behind the default gateway had always been redirected to a different gateway. A rtable/dst_entry will be added for that host. Making more dst_entrys with lower reference counts. Making this more probable. - All vmcores showed a postitive LockDroppedIcmps value, e.g: LockDroppedIcmps 267 A closer look at the tcp_v4_err() handler revealed that do_redirect() will run regardless of whether user space has the socket locked. This can result in a race condition where the same dst_entry cached in sk->sk_dst_entry can be decremented twice for the same socket via: do_redirect()->__sk_dst_check()-> dst_release(). Which leads to the dst_entry being prematurely freed with another socket pointing to it via sk->sk_dst_cache and a subsequent crash. To fix this skip do_redirect() if usespace has the socket locked. Instead let the redirect take place later when user space does not have the socket locked. The dccp/IPv6 code is very similar in this respect, so fixing it there too. As Eric Garver pointed out the following commit now invalidates routes. Which can set the dst->obsolete flag so that ipv4_dst_check() returns null and triggers the dst_release().

The previous idea was to check whether a net namespace is in net_exit_list or not. It doesn't work, because net->exit_list is used in __register_pernet_operations and __unregister_pernet_operations where all namespaces are added to a temporary list to make cleanup in a error case, so list_empty(&net->exit_list) always returns false.

Andreas reports kernel oops during rmmod of the br_netfilter module. Hannes debugged the oops down to a NULL rt6info->rt6i_indev. Problem is that br_netfilter has the nasty concept of adding a fake rtable to skb->dst; this happens in a br_netfilter prerouting hook. A second hook (in bridge LOCAL_IN) is supposed to remove these again before the skb is handed up the stack. However, on module unload hooks get unregistered which means an skb could traverse the prerouting hook that attaches the fake_rtable, while the 'fake rtable remove' hook gets removed from the hooklist immediately after.
