After reporting a new connection request to user space, the rdma_ucm
will discard subsequent events until the user has associated a user
space idenfier with the kernel cm_id. This is needed to avoid
reporting a reject/disconnect event to the user for a request that
they may not have processed.
The user space identifier is set once the user tries to accept the
connection request. However, the following race exists in ucma_accept():
ctx->uid = cmd.uid;
<events may be reported now>
ret = rdma_accept(ctx->cm_id, ...);
Once ctx->uid has been set, new events may be reported to the user.
While the above mentioned race is avoided, there is an issue that the
user _may_ receive a reject/disconnect event if rdma_accept() fails,
depending on when the event is processed. To simplify the use of
rdma_accept(), discard all events unless rdma_accept() succeeds.
This problem was discovered based on questions from Roland Dreier
<roland@purestorage.com>.

We have just been investigating kernel panics related to
cq->ibcq.event_handler() completion calls. The problem is that
ib_destroy_qp() fails with -EBUSY.
Further investigation revealed qp->usecnt is not initialized. This
counter was introduced in linux-3.2 by commit 0e0ec7e063
("RDMA/core: Export ib_open_qp() to share XRC TGT QPs") but it only
gets initialized for IB_QPT_XRC_TGT, but it is checked in
ib_destroy_qp() for any QP type.
Fix this by initializing qp->usecnt for every QP we create.

This issue happens under the following conditions:

2. __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW is defined
3. RT scheduling class
4. SMP system

1.suppose current task is A. start schedule()
2.task A is enqueued pushable task at the entry of schedule()

4.At the entry of context_swtich, release this cpu's rq->lock.

5.Shortly after rq->lock is released, interrupt is occurred and start IRQ context

10. But, task A is on irq context at this cpu.
So, task A is scheduled by two cpus at the same time until restore from IRQ.
Task A's stack is corrupted.
To fix it, don't migrate an RT task if it's still running.

This patch fixes the sampling interrupt throttling mechanism.
It was broken in v3.2. Events were not being unthrottled. The
unthrottling mechanism required that events be checked at each
timer tick.
This patch solves this problem and also separates:
- unthrottling
- multiplexing
- frequency-mode period adjustments
Not all of them need to be executed at each timer tick.
This third version of the patch is based on my original patch +
PeterZ proposal (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/7/87).
At each timer tick, for each context:
- if the current CPU has throttled events, we unthrottle events
- if context has frequency-based events, we adjust sampling periods
- if we have reached the jiffies interval, we multiplex (rotate)
We decoupled rotation (multiplexing) from frequency-mode sampling
period adjustments. They should not necessarily happen at the same
rate. Multiplexing is subject to jiffies_interval (currently at 1
but could be higher once the tunable is exposed via sysfs).
We have grouped frequency-mode adjustment and unthrottling into the
same routine to minimize code duplication. When throttled while in
frequency mode, we scan the events only once.
We have fixed the threshold enforcement code in __perf_event_overflow().
There was a bug whereby it would allow more than the authorized rate
because an increment of hwc->interrupts was not executed at the right
place.
The patch was tested with low sampling limit (2000) and fixed periods,
frequency mode, overcommitted PMU.
On a 2.1GHz AMD CPU:
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
2000
We set a rate of 3000 samples/sec (2.1GHz/3000 = 700000):
$ perf record -e cycles,cycles -c 700000 noploop 10
$ perf report -D | tail -21
Aggregated stats:
TOTAL events: 80086
MMAP events: 88
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 4
THROTTLE events: 19996
UNTHROTTLE events: 19996

We get exactly that: 20000 samples/event.

try_to_wake_up() has a problem which may change status from TASK_DEAD to
TASK_RUNNING in race condition with SMI or guest environment of virtual
machine. As a result, exited task is scheduled() again and panic occurs.
Here is the sequence how it occurs:
----------------------------------+-----------------------------
|
CPU A | CPU B
----------------------------------+-----------------------------
TASK A calls exit()....
do_exit()
exit_mm()
down_read(mm->mmap_sem);
rwsem_down_failed_common()
set TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
set waiter.task <= task A
list_add to sem->wait_list
:
raw_spin_unlock_irq()
(I/O interruption occured)
__rwsem_do_wake(mmap_sem)
list_del(&waiter->list);
waiter->task = NULL
wake_up_process(task A)
try_to_wake_up()
(task is still
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
p->on_rq is still 1.)
ttwu_do_wakeup()
(*A)
:
(I/O interruption handler finished)
if (!waiter.task)
schedule() is not called
due to waiter.task is NULL.
tsk->state = TASK_RUNNING
:
check_preempt_curr();
:
task->state = TASK_DEAD
(*B)
<--- set TASK_RUNNING (*C)
schedule()
(exit task is running again)
BUG_ON() is called!
--------------------------------------------------------
The execution time between (*A) and (*B) is usually very short,
because the interruption is disabled, and setting TASK_RUNNING at (*C)
must be executed before setting TASK_DEAD.
HOWEVER, if SMI is interrupted between (*A) and (*B),
(*C) is able to execute AFTER setting TASK_DEAD!
Then, exited task is scheduled again, and BUG_ON() is called....
If the system works on guest system of virtual machine, the time
between (*A) and (*B) may be also long due to scheduling of hypervisor,
and same phenomenon can occur.
By this patch, do_exit() waits for releasing task->pi_lock which is used
in try_to_wake_up(). It guarantees the task becomes TASK_DEAD after
waking up.

Tunnel devices set NETIF_F_LLTX to bypass HARD_TX_LOCK. Sit and
ipip set this unconditionally in ops->setup, but gre enables it
conditionally after parameter passing in ops->newlink. This is
not called during tunnel setup as below, however, so GRE tunnels are
still taking the lock.
modprobe ip_gre
ip tunnel add test0 mode gre remote 10.5.1.1 dev lo
ip link set test0 up
ip addr add 10.6.0.1 dev test0
# cat /sys/class/net/test0/features
# $DIR/test_tunnel_xmit 10 10.5.2.1
ip route add 10.5.2.0/24 dev test0
ip tunnel del test0
The newlink callback is only called in rtnl_netlink, and only if
the device is new, as it calls register_netdevice internally. Gre
tunnels are created at 'ip tunnel add' with ioctl SIOCADDTUNNEL,
which calls ipgre_tunnel_locate, which calls register_netdev.
rtnl_newlink is called at 'ip link set', but skips ops->newlink
and the device is up with locking still enabled. The equivalent
ipip tunnel works fine, btw (just substitute 'method gre' for
'method ipip').
On kernels before /sys/class/net/*/features was removed [1],
the first commented out line returns 0x6000 with method gre,
which indicates that NETIF_F_LLTX (0x1000) is not set. With ipip,
it reports 0x7000. This test cannot be used on recent kernels where
the sysfs file is removed (and ETHTOOL_GFEATURES does not currently
work for tunnel devices, because they lack dev->ethtool_ops).
The second commented out line calls a simple transmission test [2]
that sends on 24 cores at maximum rate. Results of a single run:
ipip: 19,372,306
gre before patch: 4,839,753
gre after patch: 19,133,873
This patch replicates the condition check in ipgre_newlink to
ipgre_tunnel_locate. It works for me, both with oseq on and off.
This is the first time I looked at rtnetlink and iproute2 code,
though, so someone more knowledgeable should probably check the
patch. Thanks.
The tail of both functions is now identical, by the way. To avoid
code duplication, I'll be happy to rework this and merge the two.
