kernel/hung_task.c: allow to set checking interval separately from timeout Currently task hung checking interval is equal to timeout, as the result hung is detected anywhere between timeout and 2*timeout. This is fine for most interactive environments, but this hurts automated testing setups (syzbot). In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup < RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent machine loss. The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g. if task hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins). The additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests. Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout. This allows to set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs. The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl, similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl. The default value of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to timeout.

kernel/hung_task.c: introduce sysctl to print all traces when a hung task is detected Commit 401c636a0eeb ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel parameter "hung_task_panic" is set. The idea is good, because usually when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as hung. The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays). So, users that plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console, which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command). Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung task is detected. The current approach hence is almost as embedding a policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on hung_task_panic. This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called "hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to allow individual control. The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

kernel/hung_task.c: force console verbose before panic Based on commit 401c636a0eeb ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before panic"), we could get the call stack of hung task. However, if the console loglevel is not high, we still can not see the useful panic information in practice, and in most cases users don't set console loglevel to high level. This patch is to force console verbose before system panic, so that the real useful information can be seen in the console, instead of being like the following, which doesn't have hung task information.

kernel/hung_task.c: introduce sysctl to print all traces when a hung task is detected Commit 401c636a0eeb ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel parameter "hung_task_panic" is set. The idea is good, because usually when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as hung. The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays). So, users that plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console, which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command). Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung task is detected. The current approach hence is almost as embedding a policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on hung_task_panic. This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called "hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to allow individual control. The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

kernel/hung_task.c: allow to set checking interval separately from timeout Currently task hung checking interval is equal to timeout, as the result hung is detected anywhere between timeout and 2*timeout. This is fine for most interactive environments, but this hurts automated testing setups (syzbot). In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup < RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent machine loss. The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g. if task hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins). The additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests. Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout. This allows to set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs. The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl, similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl. The default value of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to timeout.
