After analysis, it happens when all of the CPUs in a workqueue's affinity
get offine.
The problem can be easily reproduced by:
# echo 8 > /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/<any-wq-name>/cpumask
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online
Use the default max_actives for nodes when all of the CPUs in the
workqueue's affinity get offline to fix the problem.

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.
5797b1c18919 ("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.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer
wheel of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry.
This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
This is wrong in several aspects:
1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is
close to zero.
2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on
a single target CPU
3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead
for dubious value especially under the consideration that the
vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or
rearmed before they expire.
The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on
which they get armed.
This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers
and global timers which do not care about where they expire.
As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they
expire.
- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry
time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU
makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer.
The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to
the point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e.
the number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight
has been established by experimention, but can be adjusted if
needed.
In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU
to avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether
there are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have
global timers to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the
migrator locks the remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can
require to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point
the CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and
it therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its
own timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in
the hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires
first.
This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which
is e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly
more complex idle path.
This has been in development for a couple of years and the final
series has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon
vendors and ran through extensive CI.
There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them
to power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first
time in a mostly idle scenario.
There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific
overloaded netperf test which is currently investigated, but the
rest is either positive or neutral performance wise and positive on
the power management side.
- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware
timers and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes
address a few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the
math and logic wrong.
- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to
automatically adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of
having more incomprehensible command line parameters.
- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place"

Boqun pointed out that workqueues aren't handling BH work items on offlined
CPUs. Unlike tasklet which transfers out the pending tasks from
CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD, BH workqueue would just leave them pending which is
problematic. Note that this behavior is specific to BH workqueues as the
non-BH per-CPU workers just become unbound when the CPU goes offline.
This patch fixes the issue by draining the pending BH work items from an
offlined CPU from CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD. Because work items carry more context,
it's not as easy to transfer the pending work items from one pool to
another. Instead, run BH work items which execute the offlined pools on an
online CPU.
Note that this assumes that no further BH work items will be queued on the
offlined CPUs. This assumption is shared with tasklet and should be fine for
conversions. However, this issue also exists for per-CPU workqueues which
will just keep executing work items queued after CPU offline on unbound
workers and workqueue should reject per-CPU and BH work items queued on
offline CPUs. This will be addressed separately later.

When CONFIG_WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE_REPORT is set, the kernel will report
the work functions which violate the intensive_threshold_us repeatedly.
And now, only when the violate times exceed 4 and is a power of 2,
the kernel warning could be triggered.
However, sometimes, even if a long work execution time occurs only once,
it may cause other work to be delayed for a long time. This may also
cause some problems sometimes.
In order to freely control the threshold of warninging, a boot argument
is added so that the user can control the warning threshold to be printed.
At the same time, keep the exponential backoff to prevent reporting too much.
By default, the warning threshold is 4.

The implementation of the NOHZ pull at expiry model will change the timer
bases per CPU. Timers, that have to expire on a specific CPU, require the
TIMER_PINNED flag. If the CPU doesn't matter, the TIMER_PINNED flag must be
dropped. This is required for call sites which use the timer alternately as
pinned and not pinned timer like workqueues do.
Therefore use add_timer_global() in __queue_delayed_work() for non-bound
delayed work to make sure the TIMER_PINNED flag is dropped.

2f34d7337d98 ("workqueue: Fix queue_work_on() with BH workqueues") added
irq_work usage to workqueue; however, it turns out irq_work is actually
optional and the change breaks build on configuration which doesn't have
CONFIG_IRQ_WORK enabled.
Fix build by making workqueue use irq_work only when CONFIG_SMP and enabling
CONFIG_IRQ_WORK when CONFIG_SMP is set. It's reasonable to argue that it may
be better to just always enable it. However, this still saves a small bit of
memory for tiny UP configs and also the least amount of change, so, for now,
let's keep it conditional.
Verified to do the right thing for x86_64 allnoconfig and defconfig, and
aarch64 allnoconfig, allnoconfig + prink disable (SMP but nothing selects
IRQ_WORK) and a modified aarch64 Kconfig where !SMP and nothing selects
IRQ_WORK.
v2: `depends on SMP` leads to Kconfig warnings when CONFIG_IRQ_WORK is
selected by something else when !CONFIG_SMP. Use `def_bool y if SMP`

work item is queued on that CPU but kick_pool() raises softirq on the local

Commit 85f0ab43f9de ("kernel/workqueue: Bind rescuer to unbound
cpumask for WQ_UNBOUND") modified init_rescuer() to bind rescuer of
an unbound workqueue to the cpumask in wq->unbound_attrs. However
unbound_attrs->cpumask's of all workqueues are initialized to
cpu_possible_mask and will only be changed if it has the WQ_SYSFS flag
to expose a cpumask sysfs file to be written by users. So this patch
doesn't achieve what it is intended to do.
If an unbound workqueue is created after wq_unbound_cpumask is modified
and there is no more unbound cpumask update after that, the unbound
rescuer will be bound to all CPUs unless the workqueue is created
with the WQ_SYSFS flag and a user explicitly modified its cpumask
sysfs file. Fix this problem by binding directly to wq_unbound_cpumask
in init_rescuer().

Ordered workqueues does not currently follow changes made to the
global unbound cpumask because per-pool workqueue changes may break
the ordering guarantee. IOW, a work function in an ordered workqueue
may run on an isolated CPU.
This patch enables ordered workqueues to follow changes made to the
global unbound cpumask by temporaily plug or suspend the newly allocated

only be one pwq that is unplugged, the rests should be plugged.
This enables ordered workqueues to follow the unbound cpumask changes
like other unbound workqueues at the expense of some delay in execution
of work functions during the transition period.

workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask()"
This reverts commit ca10d851b9ad0338c19e8e3089e24d565ebfffd7.
The commit allowed workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask() to clear __WQ_ORDERED
on now removed implicitly ordered workqueues. This was incorrect in that
system-wide config change shouldn't break ordering properties of all
workqueues. The reason why apply_workqueue_attrs() path was allowed to do so
was because it was targeting the specific workqueue - either the workqueue
had WQ_SYSFS set or the workqueue user specifically tried to change
max_active, both of which indicate that the workqueue doesn't need to be
ordered.
The implicitly ordered workqueue promotion was removed by the previous
commit 3bc1e711c26b ("workqueue: Don't implicitly make UNBOUND workqueues w/
@max_active==1 ordered"). However, it didn't update this path and broke
build. Let's revert the commit which was incorrect in the first place which

5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered")
automoatically promoted UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 to ordered
workqueues because UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 used to be the way
to create ordered workqueues and the new NUMA support broke it. These
problems can be subtle and the fact that they can only trigger on NUMA
machines made them even more difficult to debug.
However, overloading the UNBOUND allocation interface this way creates other
issues. It's difficult to tell whether a given workqueue actually needs to
be ordered and users that legitimately want a min concurrency level wq
unexpectedly gets an ordered one instead. With planned UNBOUND workqueue
udpates to improve execution locality and more prevalence of chiplet designs
which can benefit from such improvements, this isn't a state we wanna be in
forever.
There aren't that many UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 users in the tree and the
preceding patches audited all and converted them to
alloc_ordered_workqueue() as appropriate. This patch removes the implicit
promotion of UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 workqueues to ordered ones.
v2: v1 patch incorrectly dropped !list_empty(&wq->pwqs) condition in
apply_workqueue_attrs_locked() which spuriously triggers WARNING and
fails workqueue creation. Fix it.

The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws such as
the execution code accessing the tasklet item after the execution is
complete which can lead to subtle use-after-free in certain usage scenarios
and less-developed flush and cancel mechanisms.
This patch implements BH workqueues which share the same semantics and
features of regular workqueues but execute their work items in the softirq
context. As there is always only one BH execution context per CPU, none of
the concurrency management mechanisms applies and a BH workqueue can be
thought of as a convenience wrapper around softirq.
Except for the inability to sleep while executing and lack of max_active
adjustments, BH workqueues and work items should behave the same as regular
workqueues and work items.
Currently, the execution is hooked to tasklet[_hi]. However, the goal is to
convert all tasklet users over to BH workqueues. Once the conversion is
complete, tasklet can be removed and BH workqueues can directly take over
the tasklet softirqs.
system_bh[_highpri]_wq are added. As queue-wide flushing doesn't exist in
tasklet, all existing tasklet users should be able to use the system BH
workqueues without creating their own workqueues.
v3: - Add missing interrupt.h include.
v2: - Instead of using tasklets, hook directly into its softirq action
functions - tasklet[_hi]_action(). This is slightly cheaper and closer
to the eventual code structure we want to arrive at. Suggested by Lai.
- Lai also pointed out several places which need NULL worker->task
handling or can use clarification. Updated.

- Factor out lockdep annotations in the flush paths into
touch_{wq|work}_lockdep_map(). The work->lockdep_map touching is moved

System workqueues are allocated early during boot from
workqueue_init_early(). While allocating unbound workqueues,
wq_update_node_max_active() is invoked from apply_workqueue_attrs() and
accesses NUMA topology to initialize wq->node_nr_active[].max.
However, topology information may not be set up at this point.
wq_update_node_max_active() is explicitly invoked from
workqueue_init_topology() later when topology information is known to be
available.
This doesn't seem to crash anything but it's doing useless work with dubious
data. Let's skip the premature and duplicate node_max_active updates by
initializing the field to WQ_DFL_MIN_ACTIVE on allocation and making
wq_update_node_max_active() noop until workqueue_init_topology().

When __queue_delayed_work() is called, it chooses a cpu for handling the
timer interrupt. As of today, it will pick either the cpu passed as
parameter or the last cpu used for this.
This is not good if a system does use CPU isolation, because it can take
away some valuable cpu time to:
1 - deal with the timer interrupt,
2 - schedule-out the desired task,
3 - queue work on a random workqueue, and
4 - schedule the desired task back to the cpu.
So to fix this, during __queue_delayed_work(), if cpu isolation is in
place, pick a random non-isolated cpu to handle the timer interrupt.
As an optimization, if the current cpu is not isolated, use it instead
of looking for another candidate.

A pool_workqueue (pwq) represents the connection between a workqueue and a
worker_pool. One of the roles that a pwq plays is enforcement of the
max_active concurrency limit. Before 636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound
workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues"), there was one pwq per each CPU
for per-cpu workqueues and per each NUMA node for unbound workqueues, which
was a natural result of per-cpu workqueues being served by per-cpu pools and
unbound by per-NUMA pools.
In terms of max_active enforcement, this was, while not perfect, workable.
For per-cpu workqueues, it was fine. For unbound, it wasn't great in that
NUMA machines would get max_active that's multiplied by the number of nodes
but didn't cause huge problems because NUMA machines are relatively rare and
the node count is usually pretty low.
However, cache layouts are more complex now and sharing a worker pool across
a whole node didn't really work well for unbound workqueues. Thus, a series
of commits culminating on 8639ecebc9b1 ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues
to use per-cpu pool_workqueues") implemented more flexible affinity
mechanism for unbound workqueues which enables using e.g. last-level-cache
aligned pools. In the process, 636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound
workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues") made unbound workqueues use
per-cpu pwqs like per-cpu workqueues.
While the change was necessary to enable more flexible affinity scopes, this
came with the side effect of blowing up the effective max_active for unbound
workqueues. Before, the effective max_active for unbound workqueues was
multiplied by the number of nodes. After, by the number of CPUs.
636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu
pool_workqueues") claims that this should generally be okay. It is okay for
users which self-regulates concurrency level which are the vast majority;
however, there are enough use cases which actually depend on max_active to
prevent the level of concurrency from going bonkers including several IO
handling workqueues that can issue a work item for each in-flight IO. With
targeted benchmarks, the misbehavior can easily be exposed as reported in
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/dbu6wiwu3sdhmhikb2w6lns7b27gbobfavhjj57kwi2quafgwl@htjcc5oikcr3.
Unfortunately, there is no way to express what these use cases need using
per-cpu max_active. A CPU may issue most of in-flight IOs, so we don't want
to set max_active too low but as soon as we increase max_active a bit, we
can end up with unreasonable number of in-flight work items when many CPUs
issue IOs at the same time. ie. The acceptable lowest max_active is higher
than the acceptable highest max_active.
Ideally, max_active for an unbound workqueue should be system-wide so that
the users can regulate the total level of concurrency regardless of node and
cache layout. The reasons workqueue hasn't implemented that yet are:
- One max_active enforcement decouples from pool boundaires, chaining
execution after a work item finishes requires inter-pool operations which
would require lock dancing, which is nasty.
- Sharing a single nr_active count across the whole system can be pretty
expensive on NUMA machines.
- Per-pwq enforcement had been more or less okay while we were using
per-node pools.
It looks like we no longer can avoid decoupling max_active enforcement from
pool boundaries. This patch implements system-wide nr_active mechanism with
the following design characteristics:
- To avoid sharing a single counter across multiple nodes, the configured
max_active is split across nodes according to the proportion of each
workqueue's online effective CPUs per node. e.g. A node with twice more
online effective CPUs will get twice higher portion of max_active.
- Workqueue used to be able to process a chain of interdependent work items
which is as long as max_active. We can't do this anymore as max_active is
distributed across the nodes. Instead, a new parameter min_active is
introduced which determines the minimum level of concurrency within a node
regardless of how max_active distribution comes out to be.
It is set to the smaller of max_active and WQ_DFL_MIN_ACTIVE which is 8.
This can lead to higher effective max_weight than configured and also
deadlocks if a workqueue was depending on being able to handle chains of
interdependent work items that are longer than 8.
I believe these should be fine given that the number of CPUs in each NUMA
node is usually higher than 8 and work item chain longer than 8 is pretty
unlikely. However, if these assumptions turn out to be wrong, we'll need
to add an interface to adjust min_active.
- Each unbound wq has an array of struct wq_node_nr_active which tracks
per-node nr_active. When its pwq wants to run a work item, it has to
obtain the matching node's nr_active. If over the node's max_active, the
pwq is queued on wq_node_nr_active->pending_pwqs. As work items finish,
the completion path round-robins the pending pwqs activating the first
inactive work item of each, which involves some pool lock dancing and
kicking other pools. It's not the simplest code but doesn't look too bad.
v4: - wq_adjust_max_active() updated to invoke wq_update_node_max_active().
- wq_adjust_max_active() is now protected by wq->mutex instead of
wq_pool_mutex.
v3: - wq_node_max_active() used to calculate per-node max_active on the fly
based on system-wide CPU online states. Lai pointed out that this can
lead to skewed distributions for workqueues with restricted cpumasks.
Update the max_active distribution to use per-workqueue effective
online CPU counts instead of system-wide and cache the calculation
results in node_nr_active->max.
v2: - wq->min/max_active now uses WRITE/READ_ONCE() as suggested by Lai.

Currently, for both percpu and unbound workqueues, max_active applies
per-cpu, which is a recent change for unbound workqueues. The change for
unbound workqueues was a significant departure from the previous behavior of
per-node application. It made some use cases create undesirable number of
concurrent work items and left no good way of fixing them. To address the
problem, workqueue is implementing a NUMA node segmented global nr_active
mechanism, which will be explained further in the next patch.
As a preparation, this patch introduces struct wq_node_nr_active. It's a
data structured allocated for each workqueue and NUMA node pair and
currently only tracks the workqueue's number of active work items on the
node. This is split out from the next patch to make it easier to understand
and review.
Note that there is an extra wq_node_nr_active allocated for the invalid node
nr_node_ids which is used to track nr_active for pools which don't have NUMA
node associated such as the default fallback system-wide pool.
This doesn't cause any behavior changes visible to userland yet. The next
patch will expand to implement the control mechanism on top.
v4: - Fixed out-of-bound access when freeing per-cpu workqueues.
v3: - Use flexible array for wq->node_nr_active as suggested by Lai.
v2: - wq->max_active now uses WRITE/READ_ONCE() as suggested by Lai.
- Lai pointed out that pwq_tryinc_nr_active() incorrectly dropped
pwq->max_active check. Restored. As the next patch replaces the
max_active enforcement mechanism, this doesn't change the end result.

The planned shared nr_active handling for unbound workqueues will make
pwq_dec_nr_active() sometimes drop the pool lock temporarily to acquire
other pool locks, which is necessary as retirement of an nr_active count
from one pool may need kick off an inactive work item in another pool.
This patch moves pwq_dec_nr_in_flight() call in try_to_grab_pending() to the

process_one_work() which is the other user of pwq_dec_nr_in_flight() already

wq->cpu_pwq is RCU protected but wq->dfl_pwq isn't. This is okay because
currently wq->dfl_pwq is used only accessed to install it into wq->cpu_pwq
which doesn't require RCU access. However, we want to be able to access
wq->dfl_pwq under RCU in the future to access its __pod_cpumask and the code
can be made easier to read by making the two pwq fields behave in the same
way.
- Make wq->dfl_pwq RCU protected.
- Add unbound_pwq_slot() and unbound_pwq() which can access both ->dfl_pwq
and ->cpu_pwq. The former returns the double pointer that can be used
access and update the pwqs. The latter performs locking check and
dereferences the double pointer.
- pwq accesses and updates are converted to use unbound_pwq[_slot]().

wq_adjust_max_active() needs to activate work items after max_active is
increased. Previously, it did that by visiting each pwq once activating all
that could be activated. While this makes sense with per-pwq nr_active,
nr_active will be shared across multiple pwqs for unbound wqs. Then, we'd
want to round-robin through pwqs to be fairer.
In preparation, this patch makes wq_adjust_max_active() round-robin pwqs
while activating. While the activation ordering changes, this shouldn't

__queue_work(), pwq_dec_nr_in_flight() and wq_adjust_max_active() were
open-coding nr_active handling, which is fine given that the operations are
trivial. However, the planned unbound nr_active update will make them more
complicated, so let's move them into helpers.
- pwq_tryinc_nr_active() is added. It increments nr_active if under
max_active limit and return a boolean indicating whether inc was
successful. Note that the function is structured to accommodate future
changes. __queue_work() is updated to use the new helper.
- pwq_activate_first_inactive() is updated to use pwq_tryinc_nr_active() and

boolean to indicate whether a work item has been activated.
- wq_adjust_max_active() no longer tests directly whether a work item can be
activated. Instead, it's updated to use the return value of
pwq_activate_first_inactive() to tell whether a work item has been
activated.
- nr_active decrement and activating the first inactive work item is
factored into pwq_dec_nr_active().
v3: - WARN_ON_ONCE(!WORK_STRUCT_INACTIVE) added to __pwq_activate_work() as
now we're calling the function unconditionally from
pwq_activate_first_inactive().

To prepare for unbound nr_active handling improvements, move work activation
part of pwq_activate_inactive_work() into __pwq_activate_work() and add
pwq_activate_work() which tests WORK_STRUCT_INACTIVE and updates nr_active.
pwq_activate_first_inactive() and try_to_grab_pending() are updated to use
pwq_activate_work(). The latter conversion is functionally identical. For
the former, this conversion adds an unnecessary WORK_STRUCT_INACTIVE
testing. This is temporary and will be removed by the next patch.

multiple times. Let's factor it out into pwq_is_empty().
