Subject[PATCH 1/3] futex: avoid double wake up in PI futex wait / wake on -RT
Date
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

The boosted priority is reverted after the unlock but before the
futex_hash_bucket (hb) has been accessed. The result is that we boost the
task, deboost the task, boost again for the hb lock, deboost again.
A sched trace of this scenario looks the following:

| med_prio-93 sched_wakeup: comm=high_prio pid=92 prio=9 success=1 target_cpu=000
| med_prio-93 sched_switch: prev_comm=med_prio prev_pid=93 prev_prio=29 prev_state=R ==> next_comm=high_prio next_pid=92 next_prio=9
|high_prio-92 sched_pi_setprio: comm=low_prio pid=91 oldprio=120 newprio=9
|high_prio-92 sched_switch: prev_comm=high_prio prev_pid=92 prev_prio=9 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=low_prio next_pid=91 next_prio=9
| low_prio-91 sched_wakeup: comm=high_prio pid=92 prio=9 success=1 target_cpu=000
| low_prio-91 sched_pi_setprio: comm=low_prio pid=91 oldprio=9 newprio=120
| low_prio-91 sched_switch: prev_comm=low_prio prev_pid=91 prev_prio=120 prev_state=R+ ==> next_comm=high_prio next_pid=92 next_prio=9
|high_prio-92 sched_pi_setprio: comm=low_prio pid=91 oldprio=120 newprio=9
|high_prio-92 sched_switch: prev_comm=high_prio prev_pid=92 prev_prio=9 prev_state=D ==> next_comm=low_prio next_pid=91 next_prio=9
| low_prio-91 sched_wakeup: comm=high_prio pid=92 prio=9 success=1 target_cpu=000
| low_prio-91 sched_pi_setprio: comm=low_prio pid=91 oldprio=9 newprio=120
| low_prio-91 sched_switch: prev_comm=low_prio prev_pid=91 prev_prio=120 prev_state=R+ ==> next_comm=high_prio next_pid=92 next_prio=9

We see four sched_pi_setprio() invocation but ideally two would be enough.
The patch tries to avoid the double wakeup by a wake up once the hb lock is
released. The same test case:

| med_prio-21 sched_wakeup: comm=high_prio pid=20 prio=9 success=1 target_cpu=000
| med_prio-21 sched_switch: prev_comm=med_prio prev_pid=21 prev_prio=29 prev_state=R ==> next_comm=high_prio next_pid=20 next_prio=9
|high_prio-20 sched_pi_setprio: comm=low_prio pid=19 oldprio=120 newprio=9
|high_prio-20 sched_switch: prev_comm=high_prio prev_pid=20 prev_prio=9 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=low_prio next_pid=19 next_prio=9
| low_prio-19 sched_wakeup: comm=high_prio pid=20 prio=9 success=1 target_cpu=000
| low_prio-19 sched_pi_setprio: comm=low_prio pid=19 oldprio=9 newprio=120
| low_prio-19 sched_switch: prev_comm=low_prio prev_pid=19 prev_prio=120 prev_state=R+ ==> next_comm=high_prio next_pid=20 next_prio=9

only two sched_pi_setprio() invocations as one would expect and see
without -RT.
