When compiling kernel source 'make -j $(nproc)' with the up-and-running
KASAN-enabled kernel on a 256-core machine, the following soft lockup is
shown:

Debugging Analysis:
1. The following ftrace log shows that the lockup CPU spends too much
time iterating vmap_nodes and flushing TLB when purging vm_area
structures. (Some info is trimmed).
kworker: funcgraph_entry: | drain_vmap_area_work() {
kworker: funcgraph_entry: | mutex_lock() {
kworker: funcgraph_entry: 1.092 us | __cond_resched();
kworker: funcgraph_exit: 3.306 us | }
... ...
kworker: funcgraph_entry: | flush_tlb_kernel_range() {
... ...
kworker: funcgraph_exit: # 7533.649 us | }
... ...
kworker: funcgraph_entry: 2.344 us | mutex_unlock();
kworker: funcgraph_exit: $ 23871554 us | }
The drain_vmap_area_work() spends over 23 seconds.
There are 2805 flush_tlb_kernel_range() calls in the ftrace log.
* One is called in __purge_vmap_area_lazy().
* Others are called by purge_vmap_node->kasan_release_vmalloc.
purge_vmap_node() iteratively releases kasan vmalloc
allocations and flushes TLB for each vmap_area.
- [Rough calculation] Each flush_tlb_kernel_range() runs
about 7.5ms.
-- 2804 * 7.5ms = 21.03 seconds.
-- That's why a soft lock is triggered.
2. Extending the soft lockup time can work around the issue (For example,
# echo 60 > /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_thresh). This confirms the
above-mentioned speculation: drain_vmap_area_work() spends too much
time.
If we combine all TLB flush operations of the KASAN shadow virtual
address into one operation in the call path
'purge_vmap_node()->kasan_release_vmalloc()', the running time of
drain_vmap_area_work() can be saved greatly. The idea is from the
flush_tlb_kernel_range() call in __purge_vmap_area_lazy(). And, the
soft lockup won't be triggered.
Here is the test result based on 6.10:
[6.10 wo/ the patch]
1. ftrace latency profiling (record a trace if the latency > 20s).
echo 20000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_thresh
echo drain_vmap_area_work > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_graph_function
echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on
2. Run `make -j $(nproc)` to compile the kernel source
3. Once the soft lockup is reproduced, check the ftrace log:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
76) $ 50412985 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
76) $ 50412997 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
76) $ 29165911 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
76) $ 29165926 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
91) $ 53629423 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
91) $ 53629434 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
91) $ 28121014 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
91) $ 28121026 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
[6.10 w/ the patch]
1. Repeat step 1-2 in "[6.10 wo/ the patch]"
2. The soft lockup is not triggered and ftrace log is empty.
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
3. Setting 'tracing_thresh' to 10/5 seconds does not get any ftrace
log.
4. Setting 'tracing_thresh' to 1 second gets ftrace log.
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
23) $ 1074942 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
23) $ 1074950 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
The worst execution time of drain_vmap_area_work() is about 1 second.
