rt_mutex_handle_deadlock() is called with rt_mutex::wait_lock held. In the
good case it returns with the lock held and in the deadlock case it emits a
warning and goes into an endless scheduling loop with the lock held, which
triggers the 'scheduling in atomic' warning.
Unlock rt_mutex::wait_lock in the dead lock case before issuing the warning
and dropping into the schedule for ever loop.

rt_task() checks if a task has RT priority. But depends on your
dictionary, this could mean it belongs to RT class, or is a 'realtime'
task, which includes RT and DL classes.
Since this has caused some confusion already on discussion [1], it
seemed a clean up is due.
I define the usage of rt_task() to be tasks that belong to RT class.
Make sure that it returns true only for RT class and audit the users and
replace the ones required the old behavior with the new realtime_task()
which returns true for RT and DL classes. Introduce similar
realtime_prio() to create similar distinction to rt_prio() and update
the users that required the old behavior to use the new function.
Move MAX_DL_PRIO to prio.h so it can be used in the new definitions.
Document the functions to make it more obvious what is the difference
between them. PI-boosted tasks is a factor that must be taken into
account when choosing which function to use.
Rename task_is_realtime() to realtime_task_policy() as the old name is
confusing against the new realtime_task().
No functional changes were intended.

Use try_cmpxchg() instead of cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old.
The x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in the ZF flag, so this change
saves a compare after CMPXCHG (and related move instruction in front of CMPXCHG).
Also, try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when CMPXCHG
fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.
Note that the value from *ptr should be read using READ_ONCE() to prevent
the compiler from merging, refetching or reordering the read.

Henry reported that rt_mutex_adjust_prio_check() has an ordering
problem and puts the lie to the comment in [7]. Sharing the sort key
between lock->waiters and owner->pi_waiters *does* create problems,
since unlike what the comment claims, holding [L] is insufficient.
Notably, consider:
A
/ \
M1 M2
| |
B C
That is, task A owns both M1 and M2, B and C block on them. In this
case a concurrent chain walk (B & C) will modify their resp. sort keys
in [7] while holding M1->wait_lock and M2->wait_lock. So holding [L]
is meaningless, they're different Ls.
This then gives rise to a race condition between [7] and [11], where
the requeue of pi_waiters will observe an inconsistent tree order.
B C
(holds M1->wait_lock, (holds M2->wait_lock,
holds B->pi_lock) holds A->pi_lock)
[7]
waiter_update_prio();
...
[8]
raw_spin_unlock(B->pi_lock);
...
[10]
raw_spin_lock(A->pi_lock);
[11]
rt_mutex_enqueue_pi();
// observes inconsistent A->pi_waiters
// tree order
Fixing this means either extending the range of the owner lock from
[10-13] to [6-13], with the immediate problem that this means [6-8]
hold both blocked and owner locks, or duplicating the sort key.
Since the locking in chain walk is horrible enough without having to
consider pi_lock nesting rules, duplicate the sort key instead.
By giving each tree their own sort key, the above race becomes
harmless, if C sees B at the old location, then B will correct things
(if they need correcting) when it walks up the chain and reaches A.

Let L1 and L2 be two spinlocks.
Let T1 be a task holding L1 and blocked on L2. T1, currently, is the top
waiter of L2.
Let T2 be the task holding L2.
Let T3 be a task trying to acquire L1.
The following events will lead to a state in which the wait queue of L2
isn't empty, but no task actually holds the lock.

| | | | wakeup(T1)
| | | | raw_spin_unlock(L2->wait_lock)
T1 wakes up
T1 != top_waiter(L2)
schedule_rtlock()
If the deadline of T1 is updated before the call to update_prio(), and the
new deadline is greater than the deadline of the second top waiter, then
after the requeue, T1 is no longer the top waiter, and the wrong task is
woken up which will then go back to sleep because it is not the top waiter.
This can be reproduced in PREEMPT_RT with stress-ng:
while true; do
stress-ng --sched deadline --sched-period 1000000000 \
--sched-runtime 800000000 --sched-deadline \
1000000000 --mmapfork 23 -t 20
done
A similar issue was pointed out by Thomas versus the cases where the top
waiter drops out early due to a signal or timeout, which is a general issue
for all regular rtmutex use cases, e.g. futex.
The problematic code is in rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain():
// Save the top waiter before dequeue/enqueue
prerequeue_top_waiter = rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock);
rt_mutex_dequeue(lock, waiter);
waiter_update_prio(waiter, task);
rt_mutex_enqueue(lock, waiter);
// Lock has no owner?
if (!rt_mutex_owner(lock)) {
// Top waiter changed
----> if (prerequeue_top_waiter != rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock))
----> wake_up_state(waiter->task, waiter->wake_state);
This only takes the case into account where @waiter is the new top waiter
due to the requeue operation.
But it fails to handle the case where @waiter is not longer the top
waiter due to the requeue operation.
Ensure that the new top waiter is woken up so in all cases so it can take
over the ownerless lock.

on XFS on arm64.

It also affects 6.1-rc7-rt5 and affects a preempt-rt fork of 5.14 so this
is likely a bug that existed forever and only became visible when ARM
support was added to preempt-rt. The same problem does not occur on x86-64
and he also reported that converting sb->s_inode_wblist_lock to
raw_spinlock_t makes the problem disappear indicating that the RT spinlock
variant is the problem.
Which in turn means that RT mutexes on ARM64 and any other weakly ordered
architecture are affected by this independent of RT.
Will Deacon observed:
"I'd be more inclined to be suspicious of the slowpath tbh, as we need to
make sure that we have acquire semantics on all paths where the lock can
be taken. Looking at the rtmutex code, this really isn't obvious to me
-- for example, try_to_take_rt_mutex() appears to be able to return via
the 'takeit' label without acquire semantics and it looks like we might
be relying on the caller's subsequent _unlock_ of the wait_lock for
ordering, but that will give us release semantics which aren't correct."
Sebastian Andrzej Siewior prototyped a fix that does work based on that
comment but it was a little bit overkill and added some fences that should
not be necessary.
The lock owner is updated with an IRQ-safe raw spinlock held, but the
spin_unlock does not provide acquire semantics which are needed when
acquiring a mutex.
Adds the necessary acquire semantics for lock owner updates in the slow path
acquisition and the waiter bit logic.
It successfully completed 10 iterations of the dbench workload while the
vanilla kernel fails on the first iteration.

rt_mutex_wake_q_add() needs to need to distiguish between sleeping
locks (TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT) and normal locks which use TASK_NORMAL to use
the proper wake mechanism.
Instead of checking for != TASK_NORMAL make it more robust and check
explicit for TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT which is the reason why a different wake
mechanism is used.

Dan reported that rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain() can be called with
.orig_waiter == NULL however commit a055fcc132 ("locking/rtmutex: Return
success on deadlock for ww_mutex waiters") unconditionally dereferences it.
Since both call-sites that have .orig_waiter == NULL don't care for the
return value, simply disable the deadlock squash by adding the NULL check.
Notably, both callers use the deadlock condition as a termination condition
for the iteration; once detected, it is sure that (de)boosting is done.
Arguably step [3] would be a more natural termination point, but it's
dubious whether adding a third deadlock detection state would improve the
code.

ww_mutexes can legitimately cause a deadlock situation in the lock graph
which is resolved afterwards by the wait/wound mechanics. The rtmutex chain
walk can detect such a deadlock and returns EDEADLK which in turn skips the
wait/wound mechanism and returns EDEADLK to the caller. That's wrong
because both lock chains might get EDEADLK or the wrong waiter would back
out.
Detect that situation and return 'success' in case that the waiter which
initiated the chain walk is a ww_mutex with context. This allows the
wait/wound mechanics to resolve the situation according to the rules.

rtmutex based ww_mutexes can legitimately create a cycle in the lock graph
which can be observed by a blocker which didn't cause the problem:
P1: A, ww_A, ww_B
P2: ww_B, ww_A
P3: A
P3 might therefore be trapped in the ww_mutex induced cycle and run into
the lock depth limitation of rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain() which returns
-EDEADLK to the caller.
Disable the deadlock detection walk when the chain walk observes a
ww_mutex to prevent this looping.

The rt_mutex based ww_mutex variant queues the new waiter first in the
lock's rbtree before evaluating the ww_mutex specific conditions which
might decide that the waiter should back out. This check and conditional
exit happens before the waiter is enqueued into the PI chain.
The failure handling at the call site assumes that the waiter, if it is the
top most waiter on the lock, is queued in the PI chain and then proceeds to
adjust the unmodified PI chain, which results in RB tree corruption.
Dequeue the waiter from the lock waiter list in the ww_mutex error exit
path to prevent this.

The new rt_mutex_spin_on_onwer() loop checks whether the spinning waiter is
still the top waiter on the lock by utilizing rt_mutex_top_waiter(), which
is broken because that function contains a sanity check which dereferences
the top waiter pointer to check whether the waiter belongs to the
lock. That's wrong in the lockless spinwait case:
CPU 0 CPU 1
rt_mutex_lock(lock) rt_mutex_lock(lock);
queue(waiter0)
waiter0 == rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock)
rt_mutex_spin_on_onwer(lock, waiter0) { queue(waiter1)
waiter1 == rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock)
...
top_waiter = rt_mutex_top_waiter(lock)
leftmost = rb_first_cached(&lock->waiters);
-> signal
dequeue(waiter1)
destroy(waiter1)
w = rb_entry(leftmost, ....)
BUG_ON(w->lock != lock) <- UAF
The BUG_ON() is correct for the case where the caller holds lock->wait_lock
which guarantees that the leftmost waiter entry cannot vanish. For the
lockless spinwait case it's broken.
Create a new helper function which avoids the pointer dereference and just
compares the leftmost entry pointer with current's waiter pointer to
validate that currrent is still elegible for spinning.

Going to sleep when locks are contended can be quite inefficient when the
contention time is short and the lock owner is running on a different CPU.
The MCS mechanism cannot be used because MCS is strictly FIFO ordered while
for rtmutex based locks the waiter ordering is priority based.
Provide a simple adaptive spinwait mechanism which currently restricts the
spinning to the top priority waiter.

The current logic only allows lock stealing to occur if the current task is
of higher priority than the pending owner.
Significant throughput improvements can be gained by allowing the lock
stealing to include tasks of equal priority when the contended lock is a
spin_lock or a rw_lock and the tasks are not in a RT scheduling task.
The assumption was that the system will make faster progress by allowing
the task already on the CPU to take the lock rather than waiting for the
system to wake up a different task.
This does add a degree of unfairness, but in reality no negative side
effects have been observed in the many years that this has been used in the
RT kernel.

Add an rtlock_task pointer to rt_mutex_wake_q, which allows to handle the RT
specific wakeup for spin/rwlock waiters. The pointer is just consuming 4/8
bytes on the stack so it is provided unconditionaly to avoid #ifdeffery all
over the place.
This cannot use a regular wake_q, because a task can have concurrent wakeups which
would make it miss either lock or the regular wakeups, depending on what gets
queued first, unless task struct gains a separate wake_q_node for this, which
would be overkill, because there can only be a single task which gets woken
up in the spin/rw_lock unlock path.

Regular sleeping locks like mutexes, rtmutexes and rw_semaphores are always
entering and leaving a blocking section with task state == TASK_RUNNING.
On a non-RT kernel spinlocks and rwlocks never affect the task state, but
on RT kernels these locks are converted to rtmutex based 'sleeping' locks.
So in case of contention the task goes to block, which requires to carefully
preserve the task state, and restore it after acquiring the lock taking
regular wakeups for the task into account, which happened while the task was
blocked. This state preserving is achieved by having a separate task state
for blocking on a RT spin/rwlock and a saved_state field in task_struct
along with careful handling of these wakeup scenarios in try_to_wake_up().
To avoid conditionals in the rtmutex code, store the wake state which has
to be used for waking a lock waiter in rt_mutex_waiter which allows to
handle the regular and RT spin/rwlocks by handing it to wake_up_state().
