From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

In the CPU-offline process, it calls mmdrop() after idle entry and the
subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead(). Once execution passes the
call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring the CPU, which results in
lockdep complaining when mmdrop() uses RCU from either memcg or
debugobjects below.

Fix it by cleaning up the active_mm state from BP instead. Every arch
which has CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU should have already called idle_task_exit()
from AP. The only exception is parisc because it switches them to
&init_mm unconditionally (see smp_boot_one_cpu() and smp_cpu_init()),
but the patch will still work there because it calls mmgrab(&init_mm) in
smp_cpu_init() and then should call mmdrop(&init_mm) in finish_cpu().

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage

kernel/workqueue.c:710 RCU or wq_pool_mutex should be held!

Thanks for debugging this. How did you hit it in the first place?

A link to the original thread would have helped me:

Do we know when this started happening? ie. can we determine a Fixes
tag?

If I'm reading it right, we'll now be running with active_mm == init_mm
in the offline loop.

I guess that's fine, I can't think of any reason it would matter, and it
seems like we were NULL'ing it out just for paranoia's sake not because
of any actual problem.

Just repeatedly offline/online CPUs which will eventually cause an idle thread
refcount goes to 0 and trigger __mmdrop() and of course it needs to enable
lockdep (PROVE_RCU?) as well as having luck to hit the cgroup, workqueue
or debugobject code paths to call RCU.

I don’t know. I looked at some commits that it seems the code was like that
even 10-year ago. It must be nobody who cares to run lockdep (PROVE_RCU?)
with CPU hotplug very regularly.

I do run this combination quite frequently, but only as part of
rcutorture, which might not be a representative workload.  For one thing,
it has a minimal userspace consisting only of a trivial init program.
I don't recall having ever seen this.  (I have seen one recent complaint
about an IPI being sent to an offline CPU, but I cannot prove that this
was not due to RCU bugs that I was chasing at the time.)

Yes, a trivial init is tough while running systemd should be able to catch it as it will use cgroup.

Not planning to add systemd to my rcutorture runs.  ;-)
