[ Upstream commit f7853c3424 ]
Henry reported that rt_mutex_adjust_prio_check() has an ordering
problem and puts the lie to the comment in [7]. Sharing the sort key
between lock->waiters and owner->pi_waiters *does* create problems,
since unlike what the comment claims, holding [L] is insufficient.
Notably, consider:
A
/ \
M1 M2
| |
B C
That is, task A owns both M1 and M2, B and C block on them. In this
case a concurrent chain walk (B & C) will modify their resp. sort keys
in [7] while holding M1->wait_lock and M2->wait_lock. So holding [L]
is meaningless, they're different Ls.
This then gives rise to a race condition between [7] and [11], where
the requeue of pi_waiters will observe an inconsistent tree order.
B C
(holds M1->wait_lock, (holds M2->wait_lock,
holds B->pi_lock) holds A->pi_lock)
[7]
waiter_update_prio();
...
[8]
raw_spin_unlock(B->pi_lock);
...
[10]
raw_spin_lock(A->pi_lock);
[11]
rt_mutex_enqueue_pi();
// observes inconsistent A->pi_waiters
// tree order
Fixing this means either extending the range of the owner lock from
[10-13] to [6-13], with the immediate problem that this means [6-8]
hold both blocked and owner locks, or duplicating the sort key.
Since the locking in chain walk is horrible enough without having to
consider pi_lock nesting rules, duplicate the sort key instead.
By giving each tree their own sort key, the above race becomes
harmless, if C sees B at the old location, then B will correct things
(if they need correcting) when it walks up the chain and reaches A.

commit 1c0908d8e4 upstream.
Jan Kara reported the following bug triggering on 6.0.5-rt14 running dbench
on XFS on arm64.

It also affects 6.1-rc7-rt5 and affects a preempt-rt fork of 5.14 so this
is likely a bug that existed forever and only became visible when ARM
support was added to preempt-rt. The same problem does not occur on x86-64
and he also reported that converting sb->s_inode_wblist_lock to
raw_spinlock_t makes the problem disappear indicating that the RT spinlock
variant is the problem.
Which in turn means that RT mutexes on ARM64 and any other weakly ordered
architecture are affected by this independent of RT.
Will Deacon observed:
"I'd be more inclined to be suspicious of the slowpath tbh, as we need to
make sure that we have acquire semantics on all paths where the lock can
be taken. Looking at the rtmutex code, this really isn't obvious to me
-- for example, try_to_take_rt_mutex() appears to be able to return via
the 'takeit' label without acquire semantics and it looks like we might
be relying on the caller's subsequent _unlock_ of the wait_lock for
ordering, but that will give us release semantics which aren't correct."
Sebastian Andrzej Siewior prototyped a fix that does work based on that
comment but it was a little bit overkill and added some fences that should
not be necessary.
The lock owner is updated with an IRQ-safe raw spinlock held, but the
spin_unlock does not provide acquire semantics which are needed when
acquiring a mutex.
Adds the necessary acquire semantics for lock owner updates in the slow path
acquisition and the waiter bit logic.
It successfully completed 10 iterations of the dbench workload while the
vanilla kernel fails on the first iteration.

On PREEMPT_RT the futex hashbucket spinlock becomes 'sleeping' and rtmutex
based. That causes a lockdep false positive because some of the futex
functions invoke spin_unlock(&hb->lock) with the wait_lock of the rtmutex
associated to the pi_futex held. spin_unlock() in turn takes wait_lock of
the rtmutex on which the spinlock is based which makes lockdep notice a
lock recursion.
Give the futex/rtmutex wait_lock a separate key.
