From 1342d8080f6183b0419a9246c6e6545e21fa1e05 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthias Kaehlcke Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2019 15:46:25 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] softirq: Don't skip softirq execution when softirq thread is parking When a CPU is unplugged the kernel threads of this CPU are parked (see smpboot_park_threads()). kthread_park() is used to mark each thread as parked and wake it up, so it can complete the process of parking itselfs (see smpboot_thread_fn()). If local softirqs are pending on interrupt exit invoke_softirq() is called to process the softirqs, however it skips processing when the softirq kernel thread of the local CPU is scheduled to run. The softirq kthread is one of the threads that is parked when a CPU is unplugged. Parking the kthread wakes it up, however only to complete the parking process, not to process the pending softirqs. Hence processing of softirqs at the end of an interrupt is skipped, but not done elsewhere, which can result in warnings about pending softirqs when a CPU is unplugged: /sys/devices/system/cpu # echo 0 > cpu4/online [ ... ] NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 [ ... ] NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 202 [ ... ] CPU4: shutdown [ ... ] psci: CPU4 killed. Don't skip processing of softirqs at the end of an interrupt when the softirq thread of the CPU is parking.
