kernel/smp.c: consolidate writes in smp_call_function_interrupt()

We have to test the cpu mask in the interrupt handler before checking the
refs, otherwise we can start to follow an entry before its deleted and
find it partially initailzed for the next trip.  Presently we also clear
the cpumask bit before executing the called function, which implies
getting write access to the line.  After the function is called we then
decrement refs, and if they go to zero we then unlock the structure.

However, this implies getting write access to the call function data
before and after another the function is called.  If we can assert that no
smp_call_function execution function is allowed to enable interrupts, then
we can move both writes to after the function is called, hopfully allowing
both writes with one cache line bounce.

On a 256 thread system with a kernel compiled for 1024 threads, the time
to execute testcase in the "smp_call_function_many race" changelog was
reduced by about 30-40ms out of about 545 ms.

I decided to keep this as WARN because its now a buggy function, even
though the stack trace is of no value -- a simple printk would give us the
information needed.

13 years agokernel/smp.c: fix smp_call_function_many() SMP race
Anton Blanchard [Thu, 20 Jan 2011 22:44:33 +0000 (14:44 -0800)]
kernel/smp.c: fix smp_call_function_many() SMP race

I noticed a failure where we hit the following WARN_ON in
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt:

                if (!cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(cpu, data->cpumask))
                        continue;

                data->csd.func(data->csd.info);

                refs = atomic_dec_return(&data->refs);
                WARN_ON(refs < 0);      <-------------------------

We atomically tested and cleared our bit in the cpumask, and yet the
number of cpus left (ie refs) was 0.  How can this be?

It turns out commit 54fdade1c3332391948ec43530c02c4794a38172
("generic-ipi: make struct call_function_data lockless") is at fault.  It
removes locking from smp_call_function_many and in doing so creates a
rather complicated race.

The problem comes about because:

 - The smp_call_function_many interrupt handler walks call_function.queue
   without any locking.
 - We reuse a percpu data structure in smp_call_function_many.
 - We do not wait for any RCU grace period before starting the next
   smp_call_function_many.

Imagine a scenario where CPU A does two smp_call_functions back to back,
and CPU B does an smp_call_function in between.  We concentrate on how CPU
C handles the calls:

CPU A            CPU B                  CPU C              CPU D

smp_call_function
                                        smp_call_function_interrupt
                                            walks
call_function.queue sees
data from CPU A on list

                 smp_call_function

                                        smp_call_function_interrupt
                                            walks

                                        call_function.queue sees
                                          (stale) CPU A on list
   smp_call_function int
   clears last ref on A
   list_del_rcu, unlock
smp_call_function reuses
percpu *data A
                                         data->cpumask sees and
                                         clears bit in cpumask
                                         might be using old or new fn!
                                         decrements refs below 0

set data->refs (too late!)

The important thing to note is since the interrupt handler walks a
potentially stale call_function.queue without any locking, then another
cpu can view the percpu *data structure at any time, even when the owner
is in the process of initialising it.

The following test case hits the WARN_ON 100% of the time on my PowerPC
box (having 128 threads does help :)

considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only

POLLWRNORM bits.  Similarly for read.

And most critically, when a pipe is released, that will potentially
result in POLLHUP|POLLERR (depending on whether it was the last reader
or writer), not just the regular POLLIN|POLLOUT.

[CIFS] cifs: reconnect unresponsive servers

hung waiting for it to reply. At that point, we'll want to reconnect
so that soft mounts can return an error to userspace quickly.

If the client hasn't received a reply after a specified number of echo
intervals, assume that the transport is down and attempt to reconnect
the socket.

The number of echo_intervals to wait before attempting to reconnect is
tunable via a module parameter. Setting it to 0, means that the client
will never attempt to reconnect. The default is 5.

cifs: don't fail writepages on -EAGAIN errors

If CIFSSMBWrite2 returns -EAGAIN, then the error should be considered
temporary. CIFS should retry the write instead of setting an error on
the mapping and returning.

For WB_SYNC_ALL, just retry the write immediately. In the WB_SYNC_NONE
case, call redirty_page_for_writeback on all of the pages that didn't
get written out and then move on.

Also, fix up the handling of a short write with a successful return
code. MS-CIFS says that 0 bytes_written means ENOSPC or EFBIG. It
doesn't mention what a short, but non-zero write means, so for now
treat it as we would an -EAGAIN return.

printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set.

"lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg.

It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the
