From b30814c74c184bbb231e24d6c857699af338468b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dietmar Eggemann Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 11:53:14 +0000 Subject: HMP: Fix rt task allowed cpu mask restriction code on 1x1 system There is an error scenario where on a 1x1 HMP system (weight of the hmp_slow_cpu_mask is 1) the short-cut of restricting the allowed cpu mask of an rt tasks leads to triggering a kernel bug in the rt sched class set_cpus_allowed function set_cpus_allowed_rt(). In case the task is on the run-queue and the weight of the required cpu mask is 1 and this is different to the p->nr_cpus_allowed value, this back-end function interprets this in such a way that a task changed from being migratable to not migratable anymore and decrements the rt_nr_migratory counter. There is a BUG_ON(!rq->rt.rt_nr_migratory) check in this code path which triggers in this situation. To circumvent this issue, set the number of allowed cpus for a task p to the weight of the hmp_slow_cpu_mask before calling do_set_cpus_allowed() in __setscheduler(). It will be set to this value in do_set_cpus_allowed() after the call to the sched class related backend function any way. By doing this, set_cpus_allowed_rt() returns without trying to update the rt_nr_migratory counter. This patch has been tested with a test device driver requiring a threaded irq handler on a TC2 system with a reduced cpu mask (1 Cortex A15, 1 Cortex A7).
