Kernel for Galaxy S24, rebased on CLO sources (WIP)
9c388a5ed1
Guenter reported a crash in the watchdog/perf code, which is caused by
cleanup() and enable() running concurrently. The reason for this is:
The watchdog functions are serialized via the watchdog_mutex and cpu
hotplug locking, but the enable of the perf based watchdog happens in
context of the unpark callback of the smpboot thread. But that unpark
function is not synchronous inside the locking. The unparking of the thread
just wakes it up and leaves so there is no guarantee when the thread is
executing.
If it starts running _before_ the cleanup happened then it will create a
event and overwrite the dead event pointer. The new event is then cleaned
up because the event is marked dead.
lock(watchdog_mutex);
lockup_detector_reconfigure();
cpus_read_lock();
stop();
park()
update();
start();
unpark()
cpus_read_unlock(); thread runs()
overwrite dead event ptr
cleanup();
free new event, which is active inside perf....
unlock(watchdog_mutex);
The park side is safe as that actually waits for the thread to reach
parked state.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
