From 991ef53a4832941c8130008ef35c66ec88c7fa0f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2024 12:13:38 -1000 Subject: [PATCH] sched_ext: Make scx_rq_online() also test cpu_active() in addition to SCX_RQ_ONLINE scx_rq_online() currently only tests SCX_RQ_ONLINE. This isn't fully correct - e.g. consume_dispatch_q() uses task_run_on_remote_rq() which tests scx_rq_online() to see whether the current rq can run the task, and, if so, calls consume_remote_task() to migrate the task to @rq. While the test itself was done while locking @rq, @rq can be temporarily unlocked by consume_remote_task() and nothing prevents SCX_RQ_ONLINE from going offline before the migration takes place. To address the issue, add cpu_active() test to scx_rq_online(). There is a synchronize_rcu() between cpu_active() being cleared and the rq going offline, so if an on-going scheduling operation sees cpu_active(), the associated rq is guaranteed to not go offline until the scheduling operation is complete.
