Hi Zong & Atish, In our 2 harts c910 chip, we found: echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer Then one core halted at stop_machine_yield: arch_cpu_idle () at arch/riscv/kernel/process.c:39 39 local_irq_enable(); (gdb) i th Id Target Id Frame * 1 Thread 1 (CPU#0) arch_cpu_idle () at arch/riscv/kernel/process.c:39 2 Thread 2 (CPU#1) stop_machine_yield (cpumask=0xffffffe001371fa8 <__cpu_online_mask>) at ./arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/processor.h:12 (gdb) thread 2 [Switching to thread 2 (Thread 2)] #0 stop_machine_yield (cpumask=0xffffffe001371fa8 <__cpu_online_mask>) at ./arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/processor.h:12 12 __asm__ __volatile__ ("div %0, %0, zero" : "=r" (dummy)); With your patch, it's solved. For this patch, I'll give: Tested by: Guo Ren <guoren@xxxxxxxxxx> But that's not enough, we still need: diff --git a/arch/riscv/kernel/sbi.c b/arch/riscv/kernel/sbi.c index 226ccce..12b8808 100644 --- a/arch/riscv/kernel/sbi.c +++ b/arch/riscv/kernel/sbi.c @@ -376,7 +376,7 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(sbi_send_ipi); * * Return: None */ -void sbi_remote_fence_i(const unsigned long *hart_mask) +void notrace sbi_remote_fence_i(const unsigned long *hart_mask) { __sbi_rfence(SBI_EXT_RFENCE_REMOTE_FENCE_I, hart_mask, 0, 0, 0, 0); diff --git a/arch/riscv/mm/cacheflush.c b/arch/riscv/mm/cacheflush.c index 400b945d..9467d987 100644 --- a/arch/riscv/mm/cacheflush.c +++ b/arch/riscv/mm/cacheflush.c @@ -9,12 +9,12 @@ #include <asm/sbi.h> -static void ipi_remote_fence_i(void *info) +static void notrace ipi_remote_fence_i(void *info) { return local_flush_icache_all(); } -void flush_icache_all(void) +void notrace flush_icache_all(void) { if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_RISCV_SBI)) sbi_remote_fence_i(NULL); Because: (gdb) bt #0 flush_icache_all () at arch/riscv/mm/cacheflush.c:20 #1 0xffffffe00020473a in patch_text_nosync (addr=<optimized out>, insns= <optimized out>, len=<optimized out>) at arch/riscv/kernel/patch.c:96 #2 0xffffffe000206792 in ftrace_make_call (rec=<optimized out>, addr=<optimized out>) at arch/riscv/kernel/ftrace.c:109 #3 0xffffffe0002c9be4 in __ftrace_replace_code (rec=0xffffffe01ae40020, e nable=true) at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:2503 #4 0xffffffe0002ca092 in ftrace_replace_code (mod_flags=<optimized out>) at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:2530 #5 0xffffffe0002ca24a in ftrace_modify_all_code (command=9) at kernel /trace/ftrace.c:2677 #6 0xffffffe0002ca2ee in __ftrace_modify_code (data=<optimized out>) at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:2703 #7 0xffffffe0002c1390 in multi_cpu_stop (data=0x0) at kernel/stop_machin e.c:224 #8 0xffffffe0002c0fbe in cpu_stopper_thread (cpu=<optimized out>) at kern el/stop_machine.c:491 #9 0xffffffe0002343be in smpboot_thread_fn (data=0x0) at kernel/smpboot. c:165 #10 0xffffffe00022f894 in kthread (_create=0xffffffe01af13040) at kern el/kthread.c:292 #11 0xffffffe000201fac in handle_exception () at arch/riscv/kernel/entry.S:236 On Wed, Oct 21, 2020 at 3:38 PM Zong Li <zong.li@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Like the commit cb9d7fd51d9f ("watchdog: Mark watchdog touch functions > as notrace"), some architectures assume that the stopped CPUs don't make > function calls to traceable functions when they are in the stopped > state.
