From adcfb264c3ed51fbbf5068ddf10d309a63683868 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Koichiro Den Date: Sat, 21 Dec 2024 12:33:20 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] vmstat: disable vmstat_work on vmstat_cpu_down_prep() Even after mm/vmstat:online teardown, shepherd may still queue work for the dying cpu until the cpu is removed from online mask. While it's quite rare, this means that after unbind_workers() unbinds a per-cpu kworker, it potentially runs vmstat_update for the dying CPU on an irrelevant cpu before entering atomic AP states. When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y, it results in the following error with the backtrace. BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: \ kworker/7:3/1702 caller is refresh_cpu_vm_stats+0x235/0x5f0 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1702 Comm: kworker/7:3 Tainted: G Tainted: [N]=TEST Workqueue: mm_percpu_wq vmstat_update Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x8d/0xb0 check_preemption_disabled+0xce/0xe0 refresh_cpu_vm_stats+0x235/0x5f0 vmstat_update+0x17/0xa0 process_one_work+0x869/0x1aa0 worker_thread+0x5e5/0x1100 kthread+0x29e/0x380 ret_from_fork+0x2d/0x70 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 So, for mm/vmstat:online, disable vmstat_work reliably on teardown and symmetrically enable it on startup.
