commit 5ebde09d91707a4a9bec1e3d213e3c12ffde348f upstream.
Igor Raits and Bagas Sanjaya report a RQCF_ACT_SKIP leak warning.
This warning may be triggered in the following situations:
CPU0 CPU1
__schedule()
*rq->clock_update_flags <<= 1;* unregister_fair_sched_group()
pick_next_task_fair+0x4a/0x410 destroy_cfs_bandwidth()
newidle_balance+0x115/0x3e0 for_each_possible_cpu(i) *i=0*
rq_unpin_lock(this_rq, rf) __cfsb_csd_unthrottle()
raw_spin_rq_unlock(this_rq)
rq_lock(*CPU0_rq*, &rf)
rq_clock_start_loop_update()
rq->clock_update_flags & RQCF_ACT_SKIP <--
raw_spin_rq_lock(this_rq)
The purpose of RQCF_ACT_SKIP is to skip the update rq clock,
but the update is very early in __schedule(), but we clear
RQCF_*_SKIP very late, causing it to span that gap above
and triggering this warning.
In __schedule() we can clear the RQCF_*_SKIP flag immediately
after update_rq_clock() to avoid this RQCF_ACT_SKIP leak warning.
And set rq->clock_update_flags to RQCF_UPDATED to avoid
rq->clock_update_flags < RQCF_ACT_SKIP warning that may be triggered later.
Fixes: ebb83d84e49b ("sched/core: Avoid multiple calling update_rq_clock() in __cfsb_csd_unthrottle()")
