From 64ea6e44f85b9b75925ebe1ba0e6e8430cc4e06f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Auld Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2022 11:23:28 -0500 Subject: cpu/hotplug: Make target_store() a nop when target == state Writing the current state back in hotplug/target calls cpu_down() which will set cpu dying even when it isn't and then nothing will ever clear it. A stress test that reads values and writes them back for all cpu device files in sysfs will trigger the BUG() in select_fallback_rq once all cpus are marked as dying. kernel/cpu.c::target_store() ... if (st->state < target) ret = cpu_up(dev->id, target); else ret = cpu_down(dev->id, target); cpu_down() -> cpu_set_state() bool bringup = st->state < target; ... if (cpu_dying(cpu) != !bringup) set_cpu_dying(cpu, !bringup); Fix this by letting state==target fall through in the target_store() conditional. Also make sure st->target == target in that case.
