After analysis, it happens when all of the CPUs in a workqueue's affinity
get offine.
The problem can be easily reproduced by:
# echo 8 > /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/<any-wq-name>/cpumask
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online
Use the default max_actives for nodes when all of the CPUs in the
workqueue's affinity get offline to fix the problem.

The default nna (node_nr_active) is used when the pool isn't tied to a
specific NUMA node. This can happen in the following cases:
1. On NUMA, if per-node pwq init failure and the fallback pwq is used.
2. On NUMA, if a pool is configured to span multiple nodes.
3. On single node setups.
5797b1c18919 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement for
unbound workqueues") set the default nna->max to min_active because only #1
was being considered. For #2 and #3, using min_active means that the max
concurrency in normal operation is pushed down to min_active which is
currently 8, which can obviously lead to performance issues.
exact value nna->max is set to doesn't really matter. #2 can only happen if
the workqueue is intentionally configured to ignore NUMA boundaries and
there's no good way to distribute max_active in this case. #3 is the default
behavior on single node machines.
Let's set it the default nna->max to max_active. This fixes the artificially
lowered concurrency problem on single node machines and shouldn't hurt
anything for other cases.

The crash is caused by calling arch_vcpu_is_preempted() for an offline
CPU. To avoid this, select the cpu with cpumask_any_and_distribute()
to mask __pod_cpumask with cpu_online_mask. In case no cpu is left in
the pool, skip the assignment.
tj: This doesn't fully fix the bug as CPUs can still go down between picking
the target CPU and the wake call. Fixing that likely requires adding
cpu_online() test to either the sched or s390 arch code. However, regardless
of how that is fixed, workqueue shouldn't be picking a CPU which isn't
online as that would result in unpredictable and worse behavior.

While reviewing users of subsys_virtual_register() I noticed that
wq_sysfs_init() ignores the @groups argument. This looks like a
historical artifact as the original wq_subsys only had one attribute to
register.
On the way to building up an @groups argument to pass to
subsys_virtual_register() a few more cleanups fell out:
* Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO() and DEVICE_ATTR_RW() for
cpumask_{isolated,requested} and cpumask respectively. Rename the
@show and @store methods accordingly.
* Co-locate the attribute definition with the methods. This required
moving wq_unbound_cpumask_show down next to wq_unbound_cpumask_store
(renamed to cpumask_show() and cpumask_store())
* Use ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() to skip some boilerplate declarations

on BH work items
Now that work_grab_pending() can always grab the PENDING bit without
sleeping, the only thing that prevents allowing cancel_work_sync() of a BH
work item from an atomic context is the flushing of the in-flight instance.
When we're flushing a BH work item for cancel_work_sync(), we know that the
work item is not queued and must be executing in a BH context, which means
that it's safe to busy-wait for its completion from a non-hardirq atomic
context.
This patch updates __flush_work() so that it busy-waits when flushing a BH
work item for cancel_work_sync(). might_sleep() is pushed from
start_flush_work() to its callers - when operating on a BH work item,
__cancel_work_sync() now enforces !in_hardirq() instead of might_sleep().
This allows cancel_work_sync() and disable_work() to be called from
non-hardirq atomic contexts on BH work items.
v3: In __flush_work(), test WORK_OFFQ_BH to tell whether a work item being
canceled can be busy waited instead of making start_flush_work() return
the pool. (Lai)
v2: Lai pointed out that __flush_work() was accessing pool->flags outside
the RCU critical section protecting the pool pointer. Fix it by testing
and remembering the result inside the RCU critical section.

Add an off-queue flag, WORK_OFFQ_BH, that indicates whether the last
workqueue the work item was on was a BH one. This will be used to test
whether a work item is BH in cancel_sync path to implement atomic
cancel_sync'ing for BH work items.

cancel[_delayed]_work_sync() guarantees that it can shut down
self-requeueing work items. To achieve that, it grabs and then holds
WORK_STRUCT_PENDING bit set while flushing the currently executing instance.
As the PENDING bit is set, all queueing attempts including the
self-requeueing ones fail and once the currently executing instance is
flushed, the work item should be idle as long as someone else isn't actively
queueing it.
This means that the cancel_work_sync path may hold the PENDING bit set while
flushing the target work item. This isn't a problem for the queueing path -
it can just fail which is the desired effect. It doesn't affect flush. It
doesn't matter to cancel_work either as it can just report that the work
item has successfully canceled. However, if there's another cancel_work_sync
attempt on the work item, it can't simply fail or report success and that
would breach the guarantee that it should provide. cancel_work_sync has to
wait for and grab that PENDING bit and go through the motions.
WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING and wq_cancel_waitq are what implement this
cancel_work_sync to cancel_work_sync wait mechanism. When a work item is
being canceled, WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING is also set on it and other
cancel_work_sync attempts wait on the bit to be cleared using the wait
queue.
While this works, it's an isolated wart which doesn't jive with the rest of
flush and cancel mechanisms and forces enable_work() and disable_work() to
require a sleepable context, which hampers their usability.
Now that a work item can be disabled, we can use that to block queueing
while cancel_work_sync is in progress. Instead of holding PENDING the bit,
it can temporarily disable the work item, flush and then re-enable it as
that'd achieve the same end result of blocking queueings while canceling and
thus enable canceling of self-requeueing work items.
- WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING and the surrounding mechanims are removed.
- work_grab_pending() is now simpler, no longer has to wait for a blocking
operation and thus can be called from any context.
- With work_grab_pending() simplified, no need to use try_to_grab_pending()
directly. All users are converted to use work_grab_pending().
- __cancel_work_sync() is updated to __cancel_work() with
WORK_CANCEL_DISABLE to cancel and plug racing queueing attempts. It then
flushes and re-enables the work item if necessary.
- These changes allow disable_work() and enable_work() to be called from any
context.
v2: Lai pointed out that mod_delayed_work_on() needs to check the disable
count before queueing the delayed work item. Added
clear_pending_if_disabled() call.

While (delayed) work items could be flushed and canceled, there was no way
to prevent them from being queued in the future. While this didn't lead to
functional deficiencies, it sometimes required a bit more effort from the
workqueue users to e.g. sequence shutdown steps with more care.
Workqueue is currently in the process of replacing tasklet which does
support disabling and enabling. The feature is used relatively widely to,
for example, temporarily suppress main path while a control plane operation
(reset or config change) is in progress.
To enable easy conversion of tasklet users and as it seems like an inherent
useful feature, this patch implements disabling and enabling of work items.
- A work item carries 16bit disable count in work->data while not queued.
The access to the count is synchronized by the PENDING bit like all other
parts of work->data.
- If the count is non-zero, the work item cannot be queued. Any attempt to
queue the work item fails and returns %false.
- disable_work[_sync](), enable_work(), disable_delayed_work[_sync]() and
enable_delayed_work() are added.
v3: enable_work() was using local_irq_enable() instead of
local_irq_restore() to undo IRQ-disable by work_grab_pending(). This is
awkward now and will become incorrect as enable_work() will later be
used from IRQ context too. (Lai)
v2: Lai noticed that queue_work_node() wasn't checking the disable count.
Fixed. queue_rcu_work() is updated to trigger warning if the inner work
item is disabled.

The cancel[_sync] paths acquire and release WORK_STRUCT_PENDING, and
manipulate WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING. However, they assume that all the OFFQ bit
values except for the pool ID are statically known and don't preserve them,
which is not wrong in the current code as the pool ID and CANCELING are the
only information carried. However, the planned disable/enable support will
add more fields and need them to be preserved.
This patch updates work data handling so that only the bits which need
updating are updated.
- struct work_offq_data is added along with work_offqd_unpack() and
work_offqd_pack_flags() to help manipulating multiple fields contained in
work->data. Note that the helpers look a bit silly right now as there
isn't that much to pack. The next patch will add more.
- mark_work_canceling() which is used only by __cancel_work_sync() is
replaced by open-coded usage of work_offq_data and
set_work_pool_and_keep_pending() in __cancel_work_sync().
- __cancel_work[_sync]() uses offq_data helpers to preserve other OFFQ bits
when clearing WORK_STRUCT_PENDING and WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING at the end.
- This removes all users of get_work_pool_id() which is dropped. Note that
get_work_pool_id() could handle both WORK_STRUCT_PWQ and !WORK_STRUCT_PWQ
cases; however, it was only being called after try_to_grab_pending()
succeeded, in which case WORK_STRUCT_PWQ is never set and thus it's safe
to use work_offqd_unpack() instead.
No behavior changes intended.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer
wheel of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry.
This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
This is wrong in several aspects:
1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is
close to zero.
2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on
a single target CPU
3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead
for dubious value especially under the consideration that the
vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or
rearmed before they expire.
The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on
which they get armed.
This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers
and global timers which do not care about where they expire.
As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they
expire.
- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry
time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU
makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer.
The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to
the point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e.
the number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight
has been established by experimention, but can be adjusted if
needed.
In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU
to avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether
there are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have
global timers to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the
migrator locks the remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can
require to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point
the CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and
it therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its
own timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in
the hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires
first.
This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which
is e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly
more complex idle path.
This has been in development for a couple of years and the final
series has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon
vendors and ran through extensive CI.
There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them
to power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first
time in a mostly idle scenario.
There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific
overloaded netperf test which is currently investigated, but the
rest is either positive or neutral performance wise and positive on
the power management side.
- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware
timers and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes
address a few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the
math and logic wrong.
- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to
automatically adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of
having more incomprehensible command line parameters.
- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place"

Boqun pointed out that workqueues aren't handling BH work items on offlined
CPUs. Unlike tasklet which transfers out the pending tasks from
CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD, BH workqueue would just leave them pending which is
problematic. Note that this behavior is specific to BH workqueues as the
non-BH per-CPU workers just become unbound when the CPU goes offline.
This patch fixes the issue by draining the pending BH work items from an
offlined CPU from CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD. Because work items carry more context,
it's not as easy to transfer the pending work items from one pool to
another. Instead, run BH work items which execute the offlined pools on an
online CPU.
Note that this assumes that no further BH work items will be queued on the
offlined CPUs. This assumption is shared with tasklet and should be fine for
conversions. However, this issue also exists for per-CPU workqueues which
will just keep executing work items queued after CPU offline on unbound
workers and workqueue should reject per-CPU and BH work items queued on
offline CPUs. This will be addressed separately later.

When CONFIG_WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE_REPORT is set, the kernel will report
the work functions which violate the intensive_threshold_us repeatedly.
And now, only when the violate times exceed 4 and is a power of 2,
the kernel warning could be triggered.
However, sometimes, even if a long work execution time occurs only once,
it may cause other work to be delayed for a long time. This may also
cause some problems sometimes.
In order to freely control the threshold of warninging, a boot argument
is added so that the user can control the warning threshold to be printed.
At the same time, keep the exponential backoff to prevent reporting too much.
By default, the warning threshold is 4.

The implementation of the NOHZ pull at expiry model will change the timer
bases per CPU. Timers, that have to expire on a specific CPU, require the
TIMER_PINNED flag. If the CPU doesn't matter, the TIMER_PINNED flag must be
dropped. This is required for call sites which use the timer alternately as
pinned and not pinned timer like workqueues do.
Therefore use add_timer_global() in __queue_delayed_work() for non-bound
delayed work to make sure the TIMER_PINNED flag is dropped.

2f34d7337d98 ("workqueue: Fix queue_work_on() with BH workqueues") added
irq_work usage to workqueue; however, it turns out irq_work is actually
optional and the change breaks build on configuration which doesn't have
CONFIG_IRQ_WORK enabled.
Fix build by making workqueue use irq_work only when CONFIG_SMP and enabling
CONFIG_IRQ_WORK when CONFIG_SMP is set. It's reasonable to argue that it may
be better to just always enable it. However, this still saves a small bit of
memory for tiny UP configs and also the least amount of change, so, for now,
let's keep it conditional.
Verified to do the right thing for x86_64 allnoconfig and defconfig, and
aarch64 allnoconfig, allnoconfig + prink disable (SMP but nothing selects
IRQ_WORK) and a modified aarch64 Kconfig where !SMP and nothing selects
IRQ_WORK.
v2: `depends on SMP` leads to Kconfig warnings when CONFIG_IRQ_WORK is
selected by something else when !CONFIG_SMP. Use `def_bool y if SMP`
instead.

When queue_work_on() is used to queue a BH work item on a remote CPU, the
work item is queued on that CPU but kick_pool() raises softirq on the local
CPU. This leads to stalls as the work item won't be executed until something
else on the remote CPU schedules a BH work item or tasklet locally.
Fix it by bouncing raising softirq to the target CPU using per-cpu irq_work.

Commit 85f0ab43f9de ("kernel/workqueue: Bind rescuer to unbound
cpumask for WQ_UNBOUND") modified init_rescuer() to bind rescuer of
an unbound workqueue to the cpumask in wq->unbound_attrs. However
unbound_attrs->cpumask's of all workqueues are initialized to
cpu_possible_mask and will only be changed if it has the WQ_SYSFS flag
to expose a cpumask sysfs file to be written by users. So this patch
doesn't achieve what it is intended to do.
If an unbound workqueue is created after wq_unbound_cpumask is modified
and there is no more unbound cpumask update after that, the unbound
rescuer will be bound to all CPUs unless the workqueue is created
with the WQ_SYSFS flag and a user explicitly modified its cpumask
sysfs file. Fix this problem by binding directly to wq_unbound_cpumask
in init_rescuer().

Ordered workqueues does not currently follow changes made to the
global unbound cpumask because per-pool workqueue changes may break
the ordering guarantee. IOW, a work function in an ordered workqueue
may run on an isolated CPU.
This patch enables ordered workqueues to follow changes made to the
global unbound cpumask by temporaily plug or suspend the newly allocated
pool_workqueue from executing newly queued work items until the old
pwq has been properly drained. For ordered workqueues, there should
only be one pwq that is unplugged, the rests should be plugged.
This enables ordered workqueues to follow the unbound cpumask changes
like other unbound workqueues at the expense of some delay in execution
of work functions during the transition period.

workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask()"
This reverts commit ca10d851b9ad0338c19e8e3089e24d565ebfffd7.
The commit allowed workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask() to clear __WQ_ORDERED
on now removed implicitly ordered workqueues. This was incorrect in that
system-wide config change shouldn't break ordering properties of all
workqueues. The reason why apply_workqueue_attrs() path was allowed to do so
was because it was targeting the specific workqueue - either the workqueue
had WQ_SYSFS set or the workqueue user specifically tried to change
max_active, both of which indicate that the workqueue doesn't need to be
ordered.
The implicitly ordered workqueue promotion was removed by the previous
commit 3bc1e711c26b ("workqueue: Don't implicitly make UNBOUND workqueues w/
@max_active==1 ordered"). However, it didn't update this path and broke
build. Let's revert the commit which was incorrect in the first place which
also fixes build.

5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered")
automoatically promoted UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 to ordered
workqueues because UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 used to be the way
to create ordered workqueues and the new NUMA support broke it. These
problems can be subtle and the fact that they can only trigger on NUMA
machines made them even more difficult to debug.
However, overloading the UNBOUND allocation interface this way creates other
issues. It's difficult to tell whether a given workqueue actually needs to
be ordered and users that legitimately want a min concurrency level wq
unexpectedly gets an ordered one instead. With planned UNBOUND workqueue
udpates to improve execution locality and more prevalence of chiplet designs
which can benefit from such improvements, this isn't a state we wanna be in
forever.
There aren't that many UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 users in the tree and the
preceding patches audited all and converted them to
alloc_ordered_workqueue() as appropriate. This patch removes the implicit
promotion of UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 workqueues to ordered ones.
v2: v1 patch incorrectly dropped !list_empty(&wq->pwqs) condition in
apply_workqueue_attrs_locked() which spuriously triggers WARNING and
fails workqueue creation. Fix it.

The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws such as
the execution code accessing the tasklet item after the execution is
complete which can lead to subtle use-after-free in certain usage scenarios
and less-developed flush and cancel mechanisms.
This patch implements BH workqueues which share the same semantics and
features of regular workqueues but execute their work items in the softirq
context. As there is always only one BH execution context per CPU, none of
the concurrency management mechanisms applies and a BH workqueue can be
thought of as a convenience wrapper around softirq.
Except for the inability to sleep while executing and lack of max_active
adjustments, BH workqueues and work items should behave the same as regular
workqueues and work items.
Currently, the execution is hooked to tasklet[_hi]. However, the goal is to
convert all tasklet users over to BH workqueues. Once the conversion is
complete, tasklet can be removed and BH workqueues can directly take over
the tasklet softirqs.
system_bh[_highpri]_wq are added. As queue-wide flushing doesn't exist in
tasklet, all existing tasklet users should be able to use the system BH
workqueues without creating their own workqueues.
v3: - Add missing interrupt.h include.
v2: - Instead of using tasklets, hook directly into its softirq action
functions - tasklet[_hi]_action(). This is slightly cheaper and closer
to the eventual code structure we want to arrive at. Suggested by Lai.
- Lai also pointed out several places which need NULL worker->task
handling or can use clarification. Updated.
