From 62af3783e4fd8ba9e28416e8e91cb3bdd9fb133e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daisuke Nishimura Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2011 14:37:41 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] sched: Fix cgroup movement of waking process There is a small race between try_to_wake_up() and sched_move_task(), which is trying to move the process being woken up. try_to_wake_up() on CPU0 sched_move_task() on CPU1 --------------------------------+--------------------------------- raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock) task_waking_fair() ->p.se.vruntime -= cfs_rq->min_vruntime ttwu_queue() ->send reschedule IPI to CPU1 raw_spin_unlock_irqsave(p->pi_lock) task_rq_lock() -> tring to aquire both p->pi_lock and rq->lock with IRQ disabled task_move_group_fair() -> p.se.vruntime -= (old)cfs_rq->min_vruntime += (new)cfs_rq->min_vruntime task_rq_unlock() (via IPI) sched_ttwu_pending() raw_spin_lock(rq->lock) ttwu_do_activate() ... enqueue_entity() child.se->vruntime += cfs_rq->min_vruntime raw_spin_unlock(rq->lock) As a result, vruntime of the process becomes far bigger than min_vruntime, if (new)cfs_rq->min_vruntime >> (old)cfs_rq->min_vruntime. This patch fixes this problem by just ignoring such process in task_move_group_fair(), because the vruntime has already been normalized in task_waking_fair().
