One of our machines keeled over trying to rebuild the scheduler domains.
Mainline produces the same splat:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000607f820054db
CPU: 2 PID: 149 Comm: kworker/1:1 Not tainted 5.10.0-rc1-master+ #6
Workqueue: events cpuset_hotplug_workfn
RIP: build_sched_domains
Call Trace:
partition_sched_domains_locked
rebuild_sched_domains_locked
cpuset_hotplug_workfn
It happens with cgroup2 and exclusive cpusets only. This reproducer
triggers it on an 8-cpu vm and works most effectively with no
preexisting child cgroups:
cd $UNIFIED_ROOT
mkdir cg1
echo 4-7 > cg1/cpuset.cpus
echo root > cg1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# with smt/control reading 'on',
echo off > /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
RIP maps to
sd->shared = *per_cpu_ptr(sdd->sds, sd_id);
from sd_init(). sd_id is calculated earlier in the same function:
cpumask_and(sched_domain_span(sd), cpu_map, tl->mask(cpu));
sd_id = cpumask_first(sched_domain_span(sd));
tl->mask(cpu), which reads cpu_sibling_map on x86, returns an empty mask
and so cpumask_first() returns >= nr_cpu_ids, which leads to the bogus
value from per_cpu_ptr() above.
The problem is a race between cpuset_hotplug_workfn() and a later
offline of CPU N. cpuset_hotplug_workfn() updates the effective masks
when N is still online, the offline clears N from cpu_sibling_map, and
then the worker uses the stale effective masks that still have N to
generate the scheduling domains, leading the worker to read
N's empty cpu_sibling_map in sd_init().
rebuild_sched_domains_locked() prevented the race during the cgroup2
cpuset series up until the Fixes commit changed its check. Make the
check more robust so that it can detect an offline CPU in any exclusive
cpuset's effective mask, not just the top one.
