sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled

2021-05-12T11:01:45+00:00

As pointed out by commit

  de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")

init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.

As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().

Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -> idle_init().

Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

  -preempt_disable();
  ...
  cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

mm: add new mmget() helper

2017-02-28T02:43:48+00:00

Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:

  git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_users' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_users);/mmget\(\1\);/'
  git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_users' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_users);/mmget\(\&\1\);/'

This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

Merge tag 'tag-sh-for-4.6' of git://git.libc.org/linux-sh

Pull arch/sh updates from Rich Felker:
 "This includes minor cleanups, a fix for a crash that likely affects
  all sh models with MMU, and introduction of a framework for boards
  described by device tree, which sets the stage for future J2 support"

* tag 'tag-sh-for-4.6' of git://git.libc.org/linux-sh:
  sched/preempt, sh: kmap_coherent relies on disabled preemption
  sh: add SMP method selection to device tree pseudo-board
  sh: add device tree support and generic board using device tree
  sh: remove arch-specific localtimer and use generic one
  sh: make MMU-specific SMP code conditional on CONFIG_MMU
  sh: provide unified syscall trap compatible with all SH models
  sh: New gcc support
  sh: Disable trace for kernel uncompressing.
  sh: Use generic clkdev.h header

sh: remove arch-specific localtimer and use generic one

2016-03-17T19:46:09+00:00

The code being removed was copied from arm, where the corresponding
code was removed in 2013. The only functional change should be that
the rating of the dummy local timer changes from 400 to 100.

arch/hotplug: Call into idle with a proper state

2016-03-01T19:36:57+00:00

Let the non boot cpus call into idle with the corresponding hotplug state, so
the hotplug core can handle the further bringup. That's a first step to
convert the boot side of the hotplugged cpus to do all the synchronization
with the other side through the state machine. For now it'll only start the
hotplug thread and kick the full bringup of the cpu.
