With debuging and analysis, worker_thread() accesses to the nullified
worker->pool when the newly created worker is destroyed before being
waken-up, in which case worker_thread() can see the result detach_worker()
reseting worker->pool to NULL at the begining.
Move the code "worker->pool = NULL;" out from detach_worker() to fix the
problem.
worker->pool had been designed to be constant for regular workers and
changeable for rescuer. To share attaching/detaching code for regular
and rescuer workers and to avoid worker->pool being accessed inadvertently
when the worker has been detached, worker->pool is reset to NULL when
detached no matter the worker is rescuer or not.
To maintain worker->pool being reset after detached, move the code
"worker->pool = NULL;" in the worker thread context after detached.
It is either be in the regular worker thread context after PF_WQ_WORKER
is cleared or in rescuer worker thread context with wq_pool_attach_mutex
held. So it is safe to do so.

When we want to debug the workqueue stall, we can immediately make
a panic to get the information we want.
In some systems, it may be necessary to quickly reboot the system to
escape from a workqueue lockup situation. In this case, we can control
the number of stall detections to generate panic.
workqueue.panic_on_stall sets the number times of the stall to trigger
panic. 0 disables the panic on stall.

When flushing a work item for cancellation, __flush_work() knows that it
exclusively owns the work item through its PENDING bit. 134874e2ee
("workqueue: Allow cancel_work_sync() and disable_work() from atomic
contexts on BH work items") added a read of @work->data to determine whether
to use busy wait for BH work items that are being canceled. While the read
is safe when @from_cancel, @work->data was read before testing @from_cancel
to simplify code structure:
data = *work_data_bits(work);
if (from_cancel &&
!WARN_ON_ONCE(data & WORK_STRUCT_PWQ) && (data & WORK_OFFQ_BH)) {
While the read data was never used if !@from_cancel, this could trigger
KCSAN data race detection spuriously:

To ensure non-reentrancy, __queue_work() attempts to enqueue a work
item to the pool of the currently executing worker. This is not only
unnecessary for an ordered workqueue, where order inherently suggests
non-reentrancy, but it could also disrupt the sequence if the item is
not enqueued on the newest PWQ.
Just queue it to the newest PWQ and let order management guarantees
non-reentrancy.

This is caused by pcrypt allocating a workqueue while holding
cpus_read_lock(), so workqueue code can't do it again as that can lead to
deadlocks if down_write starts after the first down_read.
The pwq creations and installations have been reworked based on
wq_online_cpumask rather than cpu_online_mask making cpus_read_lock() is
unneeded during wqattrs changes. Fix the deadlock by removing
cpus_read_lock() from apply_wqattrs_lock().

On a ~2000 CPU powerpc system, hard lockups have been observed in the
workqueue code when stop_machine runs (in this case due to CPU hotplug).
This is due to lots of CPUs spinning in multi_cpu_stop, calling
touch_nmi_watchdog() which ends up calling wq_watchdog_touch().
wq_watchdog_touch() writes to the global variable wq_watchdog_touched,
and that can find itself in the same cacheline as other important
workqueue data, which slows down operations to the point of lockups.
In the case of the following abridged trace, worker_pool_idr was in
the hot line, causing the lockups to always appear at idr_find.
watchdog: CPU 1125 self-detected hard LOCKUP @ idr_find
Call Trace:
get_work_pool

* interrupt: 900 (timer) at multi_cpu_stop

Fix this by having wq_watchdog_touch() only write to the line if the
last time a touch was recorded exceeds 1/4 of the watchdog threshold.

context (idle_cull_fn()), so kthread_stop() can be used in the process
context to replace the work of pool->detach_completion.
The wakeup in wake_dying_workers() is unneeded after this change, but it
is harmless, jut keep it here until next patch renames wake_dying_workers()
rather than renaming it again and again.

Current try_to_grab_pending() activates the inactive item and
subsequently treats it as though it were a standard activated item.
This approach prevents duplicating handling logic for both active and
inactive items, yet the premature activation of an inactive item
triggers trace_workqueue_activate_work(), yielding an unintended user
space visible side effect.
And the unnecessary increment of the nr_active, which is not a simple
counter now, followed by a counteracted decrement, is inefficient and
complicates the code.
Just remove the nr_active manipulation code in grabbing inactive items.

Since SLOB was removed, it is not necessary to use call_rcu
when the callback only performs kmem_cache_free. Use
kfree_rcu() directly.
The changes were done using the following Coccinelle semantic patch.
This semantic patch is designed to ignore cases where the callback
function is used in another way.

Currently, worker ID formatting is open coded in create_worker(),
init_rescuer() and worker_thread() (for %WORKER_DIE case). The formatted ID
is saved into task->comm and wq_worker_comm() uses it as the base name to
append extra information to when generating the name to be shown to
userspace.
However, TASK_COMM_LEN is only 16 leading to badly truncated names for
rescuers. For example, the rescuer for the inet_frag_wq workqueue becomes:
$ ps -ef | grep '[k]worker/R-inet'
root 483 2 0 Apr26 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/R-inet_]
Even for non-rescue workers, it's easy to run over 15 characters on
moderately large machines.
Fit it by consolidating worker ID formatting into a new helper
format_worker_id() and calling it from wq_worker_comm() to obtain the
untruncated worker ID string.
$ ps -ef | grep '[k]worker/R-inet'
root 60 2 0 12:10 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/R-inet_frag_wq]

The default nna (node_nr_active) is used when the pool isn't tied to a
specific NUMA node. This can happen in the following cases:
1. On NUMA, if per-node pwq init failure and the fallback pwq is used.
2. On NUMA, if a pool is configured to span multiple nodes.
3. On single node setups.
5797b1c189 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement for
unbound workqueues") set the default nna->max to min_active because only #1
was being considered. For #2 and #3, using min_active means that the max
concurrency in normal operation is pushed down to min_active which is
currently 8, which can obviously lead to performance issues.
exact value nna->max is set to doesn't really matter. #2 can only happen if
the workqueue is intentionally configured to ignore NUMA boundaries and
there's no good way to distribute max_active in this case. #3 is the default
behavior on single node machines.
Let's set it the default nna->max to max_active. This fixes the artificially
lowered concurrency problem on single node machines and shouldn't hurt
anything for other cases.

The crash is caused by calling arch_vcpu_is_preempted() for an offline
CPU. To avoid this, select the cpu with cpumask_any_and_distribute()
to mask __pod_cpumask with cpu_online_mask. In case no cpu is left in
the pool, skip the assignment.
tj: This doesn't fully fix the bug as CPUs can still go down between picking
the target CPU and the wake call. Fixing that likely requires adding
cpu_online() test to either the sched or s390 arch code. However, regardless
of how that is fixed, workqueue shouldn't be picking a CPU which isn't
online as that would result in unpredictable and worse behavior.

While reviewing users of subsys_virtual_register() I noticed that
wq_sysfs_init() ignores the @groups argument. This looks like a
historical artifact as the original wq_subsys only had one attribute to
register.
On the way to building up an @groups argument to pass to
subsys_virtual_register() a few more cleanups fell out:
* Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO() and DEVICE_ATTR_RW() for
cpumask_{isolated,requested} and cpumask respectively. Rename the
@show and @store methods accordingly.
* Co-locate the attribute definition with the methods. This required
moving wq_unbound_cpumask_show down next to wq_unbound_cpumask_store
(renamed to cpumask_show() and cpumask_store())
* Use ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() to skip some boilerplate declarations
