[PATCH] KVM: selftests: Double check on the current CPU in rseq_test

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In rseq_test, there are two threads created. Those two threads are
'main' and 'migration_thread' separately. We also have the assumption
that non-migration status on 'migration-worker' thread guarantees the
same non-migration status on 'main' thread. Unfortunately, the assumption
isn't true. The 'main' thread can be migrated from one CPU to another
one between the calls to sched_getcpu() and READ_ONCE(__rseq.cpu_id).
The following assert is raised eventually because of the mismatched
CPU numbers.

The issue can be reproduced on arm64 system occasionally.

  host# uname -r
  5.19.0-rc6-gavin+
  host# # cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor | tail -n 1
  processor    : 223
  host# pwd
  /home/gavin/sandbox/linux.main/tools/testing/selftests/kvm
  host# for i in `seq 1 100`;   \
        do echo "--------> $i"; \
        ./rseq_test; sleep 3;   \
        done
  --------> 1
  --------> 2
  --------> 3
  --------> 4
  --------> 5
  --------> 6
  ==== Test Assertion Failure ====
    rseq_test.c:265: rseq_cpu == cpu
    pid=3925 tid=3925 errno=4 - Interrupted system call
       1  0x0000000000401963: main at rseq_test.c:265 (discriminator 2)
       2  0x0000ffffb044affb: ?? ??:0
       3  0x0000ffffb044b0c7: ?? ??:0
       4  0x0000000000401a6f: _start at ??:?
    rseq CPU = 4, sched CPU = 27

This fixes the issue by double-checking on the current CPU after
call to READ_ONCE(__rseq.cpu_id) and restarting the test if the
two consecutive CPU numbers aren't euqal.
