[RFC+PATCH] Infiniband hfi1 + PREEMPT_RT_FULL issues

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

 



Hi,

	I'm trying to get an Infiniband test case working with the RT
kernel, and ended over tripping over this case:

	In drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/pio.c sc_buffer_alloc() disables
preemption that will be reenabled by either pio_copy() or
seg_pio_copy_end().

	But before disabling preemption it grabs a spin lock that will
be dropped after it disables preemption, which ends up triggering a
warning in migrate_disable() later on.

  spin_lock_irqsave(&sc->alloc_lock)
    migrate_disable() ++p->migrate_disable -> 2
  preempt_disable()
  spin_unlock_irqrestore(&sc->alloc_lock)
    migrate_enable() in_atomic(), so just returns, migrate_disable stays at 2
  spin_lock_irqsave(some other lock) -> b00m

    And the WARN_ON code ends up tripping over this over and over in
    log_store().
    
    Sequence captured via ftrace_dump_on_oops + crash utility 'dmesg'
    command.

I'm wondering if turning this sc->alloc_lock to a raw_spin_lock is the
right solution, which I'm afraid its not, as there are places where it
is held and then the code goes on to grab other non-raw spinlocks...

I got this patch in my test branch and it makes the test case go further
before splatting on other problems with infiniband + PREEMPT_RT_FULL,
but as I said, I fear its not the right solution, ideas?

The kernel I'm seing this is RHEL's + the PREEMPT_RT_FULL patch:

Linux version 3.10.0-709.rt56.636.test.el7.x86_64 (acme@seventh) (gcc version 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-16) (GCC) ) #
1 SMP PREEMPT RT Wed Sep 20 18:04:55 -03 2017

I will try and build with the latest PREEMPT_RT_FULL patch, but the
infiniband codebase in RHEL seems to be up to what is upstream and
I just looked at patches-4.11.12-rt14/add_migrate_disable.patch and that
WARN_ON_ONCE(p->migrate_disable_atomic) is still there :-\
