2009-01-05hrtimer: fix recursion deadlock by re-introducing the softirqPeter Zijlstra1-33/+27
Impact: fix rare runtime deadlock There are a few sites that do: spin_lock_irq(&foo) hrtimer_start(&bar) __run_hrtimer(&bar) func() spin_lock(&foo) which obviously deadlocks. In order to avoid this, never call __run_hrtimer() from hrtimer_start*() context, but instead defer this to softirq context.

2008-11-25hrtimer: removing all ur callback modesPeter Zijlstra1-249/+31
Impact: cleanup, move all hrtimer processing into hardirq context This is an attempt at removing some of the hrtimer complexity by reducing the number of callback modes to 1. This means that all hrtimer callback functions will be ran from HARD-irq context. I went through all the 30 odd hrtimer callback functions in the kernel and saw only one that I'm not quite sure of, which is the one in net/can/bcm.c - hence I'm CC-ing the folks responsible for that code. Furthermore, the hrtimer core now calls callbacks directly with IRQs disabled in case you try to enqueue an expired timer. If this timer is a periodic timer (which should use hrtimer_forward() to advance its time) then it might be possible to end up in an inf. recursive loop due to the fact that hrtimer_forward() doesn't round up to the next timer granularity, and therefore keeps on calling the callback - obviously this needs a fix. Aside from that, this seems to compile and actually boot on my dual core test box - although I'm sure there are some bugs in, me not hitting any makes me certain :-) Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-11-11timers: handle HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_UNLOCKED correctly from softirq contextGautham R Shenoy1-1/+16
Impact: fix incorrect locking triggered during hotplug-intense stress-tests While migrating the the CB_IRQSAFE_UNLOCKED timers during a cpu-offline, we queue them on the cb_pending list, so that they won't go stale. Thus, when the callbacks of the timers run from the softirq context, they could run into potential deadlocks, since these callbacks assume that they're running with irq's disabled, thereby annoying lockdep! Fix this by emulating hardirq context while running these callbacks from the hrtimer softirq. ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] 2.6.27 #2 -------------------------------- inconsistent {in-hardirq-W} -> {hardirq-on-W} usage. ksoftirqd/0/4 [HC0[0]:SC1[1]:HE1:SE0] takes: (&rq->lock){++..}, at: [<c011db84>] sched_rt_period_timer+0x9e/0x1fc {in-hardirq-W} state was registered at: [<c014103c>] __lock_acquire+0x549/0x121e [<c0107890>] native_sched_clock+0x88/0x99 [<c013aa12>] clocksource_get_next+0x39/0x3f [<c0139abc>] update_wall_time+0x616/0x7df [<c0141d6b>] lock_acquire+0x5a/0x74 [<c0121724>] scheduler_tick+0x3a/0x18d [<c047ed45>] _spin_lock+0x1c/0x45 [<c0121724>] scheduler_tick+0x3a/0x18d [<c0121724>] scheduler_tick+0x3a/0x18d [<c012c436>] update_process_times+0x3a/0x44 [<c013c044>] tick_periodic+0x63/0x6d [<c013c062>] tick_handle_periodic+0x14/0x5e [<c010568c>] timer_interrupt+0x44/0x4a [<c0150c9f>] handle_IRQ_event+0x13/0x3d [<c0151c14>] handle_level_irq+0x79/0xbd [<c0105634>] do_IRQ+0x69/0x7d [<c01041e4>] common_interrupt+0x28/0x30 [<c047007b>] aac_probe_one+0x1a3/0x3f3 [<c047ec2d>] _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x36/0x39 [<c01512b4>] setup_irq+0x1be/0x1f9 [<c065d70b>] start_kernel+0x259/0x2c5 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff irq event stamp: 50102 hardirqs last enabled at (50102): [<c047ebf4>] _spin_unlock_irq+0x20/0x23 hardirqs last disabled at (50101): [<c047edc2>] _spin_lock_irq+0xa/0x4b softirqs last enabled at (50088): [<c0128ba6>] do_softirq+0x37/0x4d softirqs last disabled at (50099): [<c0128ba6>] do_softirq+0x37/0x4d other info that might help us debug this: no locks held by ksoftirqd/0/4. stack backtrace: Pid: 4, comm: ksoftirqd/0 Not tainted 2.6.27 #2 [<c013f6cb>] print_usage_bug+0x13e/0x147 [<c013fef5>] mark_lock+0x493/0x797 [<c01410b1>] __lock_acquire+0x5be/0x121e [<c0141d6b>] lock_acquire+0x5a/0x74 [<c011db84>] sched_rt_period_timer+0x9e/0x1fc [<c047ed45>] _spin_lock+0x1c/0x45 [<c011db84>] sched_rt_period_timer+0x9e/0x1fc [<c011db84>] sched_rt_period_timer+0x9e/0x1fc [<c01210fd>] finish_task_switch+0x41/0xbd [<c0107890>] native_sched_clock+0x88/0x99 [<c011dae6>] sched_rt_period_timer+0x0/0x1fc [<c0136dda>] run_hrtimer_pending+0x54/0xe5 [<c011dae6>] sched_rt_period_timer+0x0/0x1fc [<c0128afb>] __do_softirq+0x7b/0xef [<c0128ba6>] do_softirq+0x37/0x4d [<c0128c12>] ksoftirqd+0x56/0xc5 [<c0128bbc>] ksoftirqd+0x0/0xc5 [<c0134649>] kthread+0x38/0x5d [<c0134611>] kthread+0x0/0x5d [<c0104477>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 ======================= Signed-off-by: Gautham R Shenoy <ego@in.ibm.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: "Paul E.

2008-09-29hrtimer: prevent migration of per CPU hrtimersThomas Gleixner1-12/+25
Impact: per CPU hrtimers can be migrated from a dead CPU The hrtimer code has no knowledge about per CPU timers, but we need to prevent the migration of such timers and warn when such a timer is active at migration time. Explicitely mark the timers as per CPU and use a more understandable mode descriptor for the interrupts safe unlocked callback mode, which is used by hrtimer_sleeper and the scheduler code. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-09-29hrtimer: mark migration stateThomas Gleixner1-2/+10
Impact: during migration active hrtimers can be seen as inactive The migration code removes the hrtimers from the queues of the dead CPU and sets the state temporary to INACTIVE. The enqueue code sets it to ACTIVE/PENDING again. Prevent that the wrong state can be seen by using a separate migration state bit. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-09-29hrtimer: fix migration of CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ hrtimersThomas Gleixner1-3/+25
Impact: Stale timers after a CPU went offline. commit 37bb6cb4097e29ffee970065b74499cbf10603a3 hrtimer: unlock hrtimer_wakeup changed the hrtimer sleeper callback mode to CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ due to locking problems. A result of this change is that when enqueue is called for an already expired hrtimer the callback function is not longer called directly from the enqueue code. The normal callers have been fixed in the code, but the migration code which moves hrtimers from a dead CPU to a live CPU was not made aware of this. This can be fixed by checking the timer state after the call to enqueue in the migration code. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2008-09-11hrtimer: peek at the timer queue just before going idleArjan van de Ven1-0/+30
As part of going idle, we already look at the time of the next timer event to determine which C-state to select etc. This patch adds functionality that causes the timers that are past their soft expire time, to fire at this time, before we calculate the next wakeup time. This functionality will thus avoid wakeups by running timers before going idle rather than specially waking up for it. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

2008-09-05hrtimer: turn hrtimers into range timersArjan van de Ven1-4/+52
this patch turns hrtimers into range timers; they have 2 expire points 1) the soft expire point 2) the hard expire point the kernel will do it's regular best effort attempt to get the timer run at the hard expire point. However, if some other time fires after the soft expire point, the kernel now has the freedom to fire this timer at this point, and thus grouping the events and preventing a power-expensive wakeup in the future.

2008-09-05hrtimer: convert kernel/* to the new hrtimer apisArjan van de Ven1-21/+23

2008-07-03hrtimer: prevent migration for raising softirqSteven Rostedt1-0/+8
Due to a possible deadlock, the waking of the softirq was pushed outside of the hrtimer base locks. See commit 0c96c5979a522c3323c30a078a70120e29b5bdbc Unfortunately this allows the task to migrate after setting up the softirq and raising it. Since softirqs run a queue that is per-cpu we may raise the softirq on the wrong CPU and this will keep the queued softirq task from running. To solve this issue, this patch disables preemption around the releasing of the hrtimer lock and raising of the softirq.

hres_timers_resume() warns if there appears to be more than one cpu online. This warning makes sense when the suspend/resume mechanism offlines all cpus but one during the suspend/resume process. However, Xen suspend does not need to offline the other cpus; it merely keeps them tied up in stop_machine() while the virtual machine is suspended. The warning hres_timers_resume issues is therefore spurious. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Cc: xen-devel <xen-devel@lists.xensource.com> Cc: "Rafael J.

2008-05-03hrtimer: remove duplicate helper functionOliver Hartkopp1-9/+0
The helper function hrtimer_callback_running() is used in kernel/hrtimer.c as well as in the updated net/can/bcm.c which now supports hrtimers. Moving the helper function to hrtimer.h removes the duplicate definition in the C-files.

2008-04-30add hrtimer specific debugobjects codeThomas Gleixner1-20/+157
hrtimers have now dynamic users in the network code. Put them under debugobjects surveillance as well. Add calls to the generic object debugging infrastructure and provide fixup functions which allow to keep the system alive when recoverable problems have been detected by the object debugging core code.

2008-04-28hrtimer: raise softirq unlocked to avoid circular lock dependencyThomas Gleixner1-2/+17
The scheduler hrtimer bits in 2.6.25 introduced a circular lock dependency in a rare code path: ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.25-sched-devel.git-x86-latest.git #19 ------------------------------------------------------- X/2980 is trying to acquire lock: (&rq->rq_lock_key#2){++..}, at: [<ffffffff80230146>] task_rq_lock+0x56/0xa0 but task is already holding lock: (&cpu_base->lock){++..}, at: [<ffffffff80257ae1>] lock_hrtimer_base+0x31/0x60 which lock already depends on the new lock. The scenario which leads to this is: posix-timer signal is delivered -> posix-timer is rearmed timer is already expired in hrtimer_enqueue() -> softirq is raised To prevent this we need to move the raise of the softirq out of the base->lock protected code path.

2008-04-27hrtimer: timeout too long when using HRTIMER_CB_SOFTIRQBodo Stroesser1-2/+13
When using hrtimer with timer->cb_mode == HRTIMER_CB_SOFTIRQ in some cases the clockevent is not programmed. This happens, if: - a timer is rearmed while it's state is HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK - hrtimer_reprogram() returns -ETIME, when it is called after CALLBACK is finished. This occurs if the new timer->expires is in the past when CALLBACK is done. In this case, the timer needs to be removed from the tree and put onto the pending list again. The patch is against 2.6.22.5, but AFAICS, it is relevant for 2.6.25 also (in run_hrtimer_pending()).
