      watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Implement init time perf validation · 178b9f7a
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The watchdog tries to create perf events even after it figured out that
      perf is not functional or the requested event is not supported.
      
      That's braindead as this can be done once at init time and if not supported
      the NMI watchdog can be turned off unconditonally.
      
      Implement the perf hardlockup detector functionality for that. This creates
      a new event create function, which will replace the unholy mess of the
      existing one in later patches.

      watchdog/core: Get rid of the racy update loop · 09154985
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      Letting user space poke directly at variables which are used at run time is
      stupid and causes a lot of race conditions and other issues.
      
      Seperate the user variables and on change invoke the reconfiguration, which
      then stops the watchdogs, reevaluates the new user value and restarts the
      watchdogs with the new parameters.

      watchdog/core, powerpc: Make watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() two stage · 6592ad2f
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      Both the perf reconfiguration and the powerpc watchdog_nmi_reconfigure()
      need to be done in two steps.
      
           1) Stop all NMIs
           2) Read the new parameters and start NMIs
      
      Right now watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() is a combination of both. To allow a
      clean reconfiguration add a 'run' argument and split the functionality in
      powerpc.

      watchdog/sysctl: Get rid of the #ifdeffery · 51d4052b
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The sysctl of the nmi_watchdog file prevents writes by setting:
      
          min = max = 0
      
      if none of the users is enabled. That involves ifdeffery and is competely
      non obvious.
      
      If none of the facilities is enabeld, then the file can simply be made read
      only. Move the ifdeffery into the header and use a constant for file
      permissions.

      watchdog/core: Get rid of the thread teardown/setup dance · d57108d4
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The lockup detector reconfiguration tears down all watchdog threads when
      the watchdog is disabled and sets them up again when its enabled.
      
      That's a pointless exercise. The watchdog threads are not consuming an
      insane amount of resources, so it's enough to set them up at init time and
      keep them in parked position when the watchdog is disabled and unpark them
      when it is reenabled. The smpboot thread infrastructure takes care of
      keeping the force parked threads in place even across cpu hotplug.
      
      Aside of that the code implements the park/unpark facility of smp hotplug
      threads on its own, which is even more pointless. We have functionality in
      the smpboot thread code to do so.
      
      Use the new thread management functions and get rid of the unholy mess.

      Another horrible mechanism are the open coded park/unpark loops which are
      used for reconfiguration of the watchdog. The smpboot infrastructure allows
      exactly the same via smpboot_update_cpumask_thread_percpu(), which is cpu
      hotplug safe. Using that instead of the open coded loops allows to get rid
      of the hotplug locking mess in the watchdog code.
      
      Implement a clean infrastructure which allows to replace the open coded
      nonsense.

      smpboot/threads, watchdog/core: Avoid runtime allocation · 0d85923c
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      smpboot_update_cpumask_threads_percpu() allocates a temporary cpumask at
      runtime. This is suboptimal because the call site needs more code size for
      proper error handling than a statically allocated temporary mask requires
      data size.
      
      Add static temporary cpumask. The function is globaly serialized, so no
      further protection required.
      
      Remove the half baken error handling in the watchdog code and get rid of
      the export as there are no in tree modular users of that function.

      watchdog/core: Remove the park_in_progress obfuscation · 01f0a027
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      Commit:
      
        b94f5118 ("kernel/watchdog: prevent false hardlockup on overloaded system")
      
      tries to fix the following issue:
      
      proc_write()
         set_sample_period()    <--- New sample period becoms visible
      			  <----- Broken starts
         proc_watchdog_update()
           watchdog_enable_all_cpus()		watchdog_hrtimer_fn()
           update_watchdog_all_cpus()		   restart_timer(sample_period)
              watchdog_park_threads()
      
      					thread->park()
      					  disable_nmi()
      			  <----- Broken ends
      
      The reason why this is broken is that the update of the watchdog threshold
      becomes immediately effective and visible for the hrtimer function which
      uses that value to rearm the timer. But the NMI/perf side still uses the
      old value up to the point where it is disabled. If the rate has been
      lowered then the NMI can run fast enough to 'detect' a hard lockup because
      the timer has not fired due to the longer period.
      
      The patch 'fixed' this by adding a variable:
      
      proc_write()
         set_sample_period()
      					<----- Broken starts
         proc_watchdog_update()
           watchdog_enable_all_cpus()		watchdog_hrtimer_fn()
           update_watchdog_all_cpus()		   restart_timer(sample_period)
               watchdog_park_threads()
      	  park_in_progress = 1
      					<----- Broken ends
      				        nmi_watchdog()
      					  if (park_in_progress)
      					     return;
      
      The only effect of this variable was to make the window where the breakage
      can hit small enough that it was not longer observable in testing. From a
      correctness point of view it is a pointless bandaid which merily papers
      over the root cause: the unsychronized update of the variable.
      
      Looking deeper into the related code pathes unearthed similar problems in
      the watchdog_start()/stop() functions.
      
       watchdog_start()
      	perf_nmi_event_start()
      	hrtimer_start()
      
       watchdog_stop()
      	hrtimer_cancel()
      	perf_nmi_event_stop()
      
      In both cases the call order is wrong because if the tasks gets preempted
      or the VM gets scheduled out long enough after the first call, then there is
      a chance that the next NMI will see a stale hrtimer interrupt count and
      trigger a false positive hard lockup splat.
      
      Get rid of park_in_progress so the code can be gradually deobfuscated and
      pruned from several layers of duct tape papering over the root cause,
      which has been either ignored or not understood at all.
      
      Once this is removed the underlying problem will be fixed by rewriting the
      proc interface to do a proper synchronized update.
      
      Address the start/stop() ordering problem as well by reverting the call
      order, so this part is at least correct now.

                                    get_online_cpus()
      
      when a per cpu watchdog perf event is destroyed which drops the last
      reference to the PMU hardware. The cleanup code there invokes
      get_online_cpus() which instantly deadlocks because the hotplug percpu
      rwsem is write locked.
      
      To solve this add a deferring mechanism:
      
        cpus_write_lock()
      			   kthread_park()
      			    watchdog_nmi_disable(deferred)
      			      perf_event_disable(event);
      			      move_event_to_deferred(event);
      			   ....
        cpus_write_unlock()
        cleaup_deferred_events()
          perf_event_release_kernel()
      
      This is still properly serialized against concurrent hotplug via the
      cpu_add_remove_lock, which is held by the task which initiated the hotplug
      event.
      
      This is also used to handle event destruction when the watchdog threads are
      parked via other mechanisms than CPU hotplug.

      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The self disabling feature is broken vs. CPU hotplug locking:

      			   CPU 2
      cpus_write_lock()
       cpu_down(2)

      			     watchdog()
      			     if (!(watchdog_enable & NMI_WATCHDOG))
      				watchdog_nmi_disable()
      				  perf_event_disable()
      				  ....
      				  cpus_read_lock();
      
      			   stop_smpboot_threads()
      			     park_watchdog();
      			       wait_for_completion(watchdog->parked);
      
      Result: End of hotplug and instantaneous full lockup of the machine.
      
      There is a similar problem with disabling the watchdog via the user space
      interface as the sysctl function fiddles with watchdog_enable directly.
      
      It's very debatable whether this is required at all. If the watchdog works
      nicely on N CPUs and it fails to enable on the N + 1 CPU either during
      hotplug or because the user space interface disabled it via sysctl cpumask
      and then some perf user grabbed the counter which is then unavailable for
      the watchdog when the sysctl cpumask gets changed back.
      
      There is no real justification for this.
      
      One of the reasons WHY this is done is the utter stupidity of the init code
      of the perf NMI watchdog. Instead of checking upfront at boot whether PERF
      is available and functional at all, it just does this check at run time
      over and over when user space fiddles with the sysctl. That's broken beyond
      repair along with the idiotic error code dependent warn level printks and
      the even more silly printk rate limiting.
      
      If the init code checks whether perf works at boot time, then this mess can
      be more or less avoided completely. Perf does not come magically into life
      at runtime. Brain usage while coding is overrated.
      
      Remove the cruft and add a temporary safe guard which gets removed later.

      This interface has several issues:
      
       - It's causing recursive locking of the hotplug lock.
      
       - It's complete overkill to teardown all threads and then recreate them
      
      The same can be achieved with the simple hardlockup_detector_perf_stop /

      People have serious problems with the alphabet and sorting, and poor
      Jérôme Glisse and Radim Krčmář get their names mangled by locale issues,
      turning them into some mangled mess (probably others do too, but those
      two stood out when sorting things again).
      
      And we now have two copies of the same 'AS3645A LED FLASH CONTROLLER
      DRIVER' in the tree and in the MAINTAINERS file, but that's a separate
      issue - the duplication is real, and I left them as two entries for the
      same name.
      
      This does not try to sort the actual section pattern entries, although I
      may end up doing that later.

      x86/hyper-V: Allocate the IDT entry early in boot · 213ff44a
      K. Y. Srinivasan authored
      Allocate the hypervisor callback IDT entry early in the boot sequence.
      
      The previous code would allocate the entry as part of registering the handler
      when the vmbus driver loaded, and this caused a problem for the IDT cleanup
      that Thomas is working on for v4.15.
