Currently, the sched code checks if the rq clock has been
updated after its lock has been held when CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG
is enabled. It tracks this by clearing the RQCF_UPDATED bit
when a lock is acquired and setting it upon a subsequent
update_rq_clock() call. It warns if rq clock is read without
RQCF_UPDATED flag indicating the code path missed updating
the clock.
When migrate_tasks() is called during a pause_cpus() event,
the local variable orf is updated with the contents of *rf,
prior to the call to update_rq_clock(). As a result, when
migrate_tasks() restores *rf from the local variable the
RQCF_UPDATED flag is lost. This clearing out of the
RQCF_UPDATED flag leads to a warning when the next task
is being pushed out.
For example in migrate_tasks()
orf = rf; // save flags, RQCF_UPDATE cleared
update_rq_clock() // set RQCF_UPDATE
for()
...
__migrate_task(dead_rq, new_cpu)
...
--> if migration, restore dead_rq's flags with orf.
--> We loose RQCF_UPDATE
rq_relock(dead_rq, orf)
This leaves the current cpu's rq clock_update_flags with the
RQCF_UPDATED flag cleared, an error condition with
CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG enabled.
Fix the issue for by ensuring that the local variable orf
has the RQCF_UPDATED flag set, allowing the current
CPU's rq to have the flag set and leaving it in a good state
for future usage.
pause_cpus() is currently Android specific. As cpu_pause does
not rely on stop_machine_cpuslocked() like the regular
hotunplug path does, there's a risk for another CPU to
read the rq_clock, after we cleared RQCF_UPDATE, when using
pause_cpus(). This change will have little or no impact outside
of Android currently. If pause_cpus() or drain_rq_cpu_stop()
are merged upstream this change should be merged as well.

How do I submit patches to Android Common Kernels
-
BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export. - When sending patches upstream, the commit message must contain a clear case for why the patch is needed and beneficial to the community. Enabling out-of-tree drivers or functionality is not not a persuasive case.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
-
LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
Common Kernel patch requirements
- All patches must conform to the Linux kernel coding standards and pass
script/checkpatch.pl - Patches shall not break gki_defconfig or allmodconfig builds for arm, arm64, x86, x86_64 architectures (see https://source.android.com/setup/build/building-kernels)
- If the patch is not merged from an upstream branch, the subject must be tagged with the type of patch:
UPSTREAM:,BACKPORT:,FROMGIT:,FROMLIST:, orANDROID:. - All patches must have a
Change-Id:tag (see https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-changeid.html) - If an Android bug has been assigned, there must be a
Bug:tag. - All patches must have a
Signed-off-by:tag by the author and the submitter
Additional requirements are listed below based on patch type
Requirements for backports from mainline Linux: UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:
- If the patch is a cherry-pick from Linux mainline with no changes at all
- tag the patch subject with
UPSTREAM:. - add upstream commit information with a
(cherry picked from commit ...)line - Example:
- if the upstream commit message is
- tag the patch subject with
important patch from upstream
