From: Matt Fleming <[email protected]>
call_rcu_tasks_generic() can be invoked with IRQs disabled, and on
older kernels this exposed an ABBA deadlock against the scheduler
runqueue lock via sched_ext's task-storage teardown path:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
sched_ext_free()
task_rq_lock()
raw_spin_lock(rq->lock)
rcu_tasks_one_gp()
raw_spin_lock(cbs_gbl_lock)
scx_exit_task()
bpf_task_storage_delete()
call_rcu_tasks_generic()
raw_spin_lock(cbs_gbl_lock)
<blocks>
_printk()
console_unlock()
try_to_wake_up()
raw_spin_lock(rq->lock)
<blocks>
Tasks Trace has since moved to SRCU and no longer takes this path, but
Tasks and Tasks Rude still go through call_rcu_tasks_generic() and
remain exposed to lock-order inversions against any lock that may be
held with IRQs disabled by a caller.
Split the enqueue based on the caller's IRQ state. When IRQs are
disabled, push the callback onto a statically initialised per-CPU
lockless llist and schedule a hard irq_work to drain it into the
segmented callback list under the usual per-CPU lock outside the
caller's lock context. The drain is also invoked from
rcu_barrier_tasks_generic() and rcu_tasks_need_gpcb() so barriers
and grace-period progress cannot miss in-transit callbacks.
IRQ-enabled callers keep the existing direct-enqueue semantics.
Fixes: ab97152f88a4 ("rcu-tasks: Use more callback queues if contention
encountered")

I have a separately tested 6.18.y backport and will submit it once this
change lands upstream.
