Subject: tasklets: Prevent kill/unlock_wait deadlock on RT
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2020 15:02:26 +0100
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.10/older/patches-5.10.8-rt24.tar.xz
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
tasklet_kill() and tasklet_unlock_wait() spin and wait for the
TASKLET_STATE_SCHED resp. TASKLET_STATE_RUN bit in the tasklet state to be
cleared. This works on !RT nicely because the corresponding execution can
only happen on a different CPU.
On RT softirq processing is preemptible, therefore a task preempting the
softirq processing thread can spin forever.
Prevent this by invoking local_bh_disable()/enable() inside the loop. In
case that the softirq processing thread was preempted by the current task,
current will block on the local lock which yields the CPU to the preempted
softirq processing thread. If the tasklet is processed on a different CPU
then the local_bh_disable()/enable() pair is just a waste of processor
cycles.
