From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.12-rc1 commit 0922f54fdd15aedb93730eb8cfa0c069cbad4e08 category: feature bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/8335 Reference: https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commi... -------------------------------- The dispatch path retries if the local DSQ is still empty after ops.dispatch() either dispatched or consumed a task. This is both out of necessity and for convenience. It has to retry because the dispatch path might lose the tasks to dequeue while the rq lock is released while trying to migrate tasks across CPUs, and the retry mechanism makes ops.dispatch() implementation easier as it only needs to make some forward progress each iteration. However, this makes it possible for ops.dispatch() to stall CPUs by repeatedly dispatching ineligible tasks. If all CPUs are stalled that way, the watchdog or sysrq handler can't run and the system can't be saved. Let's address the issue by breaking out of the dispatch loop after 32 iterations. It is unlikely but not impossible for ops.dispatch() to legitimately go over the iteration limit. We want to come back to the dispatch path in such cases as not doing so risks stalling the CPU by idling with runnable tasks pending. As the previous task is still current in balance_scx(), resched_curr() doesn't do anything - it will just get cleared. Let's instead use scx_kick_bpf() which will trigger reschedule after switching to the next task which will likely be the idle task.
