So I already did this work?  Great, I like it when that happens :)

Ah, not the whole lot is needed, only these (in the order):

irq_work: Introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt()
irq_work: Force raised irq work to run on irq work interrupt
x86: Tell irq work about self IPI support
arm: Tell irq work about self IPI support

You've applied them on your previous 3.17-stable release. They
just lacked stable tags upstream because we decided to backport them
after they got merged so you cherry-picked them directly :-)

When I tried this in 3.14.x the kernel would lock up immediately during
boot (not even a console). This may or may not have to do with me also
using the BFS scheduler, but it's IMHO something that should be
double-checked.

I also tried to backport the necessary macros but that went nowhere
fast, since they ended up pulling in most of the rcu-task stuff..

"OK" as in "worth the overhead to fix the known bug"?  Or is this just
not worth backporting to 3.17, 3.14, and 3.10 as no one really hits this
issue there?

Older kernels can use rcu_note_context_switch() instead of
rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch(), which didn't show up until quite
recently.  Please note that rcu_note_context_switch() is quite a bit
more heavy-weight than is rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch(), but it
should be OK in this context.

 Doesn't build in 3.17 properly :(

Older kernels can use rcu_note_context_switch() instead of
rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch(), which didn't show up until quite
recently.  Please note that rcu_note_context_switch() is quite a bit
more heavy-weight than is rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch(), but it
should be OK in this context.

OK as in worth the overhead to fix the known bug?  Or is this just
not worth backporting to 3.17, 3.14, and 3.10 as no one really hits this
issue there?

When I tried this in 3.14.x the kernel would lock up immediately during
boot (not even a console). This may or may not have to do with me also
using the BFS scheduler, but it's IMHO something that should be
double-checked.

I also tried to backport the necessary macros but that went nowhere
fast, since they ended up pulling in most of the rcu-task stuff..

  Actually, 3.17 is a filesystem killer for some unlucky users due to
  the libata blacklist being disabled by a bug.
  
  Patch:
  https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata.git/patch/?id=1c40279960bcd7d52dbdf1d466b20d24b99176c8
  1c40279960bcd7d52dbdf1d466b20d24b99176c8 (libata: Un-break ATA
  blacklist)
  
 
 There are some more bugs too:
 
 
 RCU stalls, fix has been in rcu/urgent for 7 days:
 https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu.git/commit/?h=rcu/urgentid=789cbbeca4eb7141cbd748ee93772471101b507b

Doesn't build in 3.17 properly :(
   
   Older kernels can use rcu_note_context_switch() instead of
   rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch(), which didn't show up until quite
   recently.  Please note that rcu_note_context_switch() is quite a bit
   more heavy-weight than is rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch(), but it
   should be OK in this context.
  
  OK as in worth the overhead to fix the known bug?  Or is this just
  not worth backporting to 3.17, 3.14, and 3.10 as no one really hits this
  issue there?
 
 OK as in the added overhead of rcu_note_context_switch() is likely

 If Frederic says it's ok for me to backport these, I will, but I want

Ah, not the whole lot is needed, only these (in the order):

irq_work: Introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt()
irq_work: Force raised irq work to run on irq work interrupt
x86: Tell irq work about self IPI support
arm: Tell irq work about self IPI support

You've applied them on your previous 3.17-stable release. They
just lacked stable tags upstream because we decided to backport them
after they got merged so you cherry-picked them directly :-)


Thanks!

Yeah, kselftest!  I had forgotten that was operational in this release,
I'll go add it to my release scripts to make sure it is run before I cut
an -rc.

This one I missed, probably because no one actually has a arm64 machine
that is "public" :)

Compiled and booted on my test system. No dmesg regressions noticed
compared to 3.17. Ran kselftest target as it is included in this

Partly unrelated, but if you send me a qemu config and qemu command line
to test if the blacklist is working (one which fails if it doesn't),
I'll be happy to add it to my automated tests.

Commit 1c40279960 ("libata: Un-break ATA blacklist") is apparently not
included, is in Linus' tree since Friday, and is rather urgent.

Actually, 3.17 is a filesystem killer for some unlucky users due to the
libata blacklist being disabled by a bug.

Patch:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata.git/patch/?id=1c40279960bcd7d52dbdf1d466b20d24b99176c8
1c40279960bcd7d52dbdf1d466b20d24b99176c8 (libata: Un-break ATA blacklist)

I am not complaining that the patch hasn't made it to 3.17.1 (or even
mainline) yet.  This is just a head's up to those that might be affected by
the problem.

Partly unrelated, but if you send me a qemu config and qemu command line
to test if the blacklist is working (one which fails if it doesn't),
I'll be happy to add it to my automated tests.
