powerpc/smp: Wait until secondaries are active & online
Anton has a busy ppc64le KVM box where guests sometimes hit the infamous "kernel BUG at kernel/smpboot.c:134!" issue during boot: BUG_ON(td->cpu != smp_processor_id()); Basically a per CPU hotplug thread scheduled on the wrong CPU. The oops output confirms it: CPU: 0 Comm: watchdog/130 The problem is that we aren't ensuring the CPU active bit is set for the secondary before allowing the master to continue on. The master unparks the secondary CPU's kthreads and the scheduler looks for a CPU to run on. It calls select_task_rq() and realises the suggested CPU is not in the cpus_allowed mask. It then ends up in select_fallback_rq(), and since the active bit isnt't set we choose some other CPU to run on. This seems to have been introduced by6acbfb9697
"sched: Fix hotplug vs. set_cpus_allowed_ptr()", which changed from setting active before online to setting active after online. However that was in turn fixing a bug where other code assumed an active CPU was also online, so we can't just revert that fix. The simplest fix is just to spin waiting for both active & online to be set. We already have a barrier prior to set_cpu_online() (which also sets active), to ensure all other setup is completed before online & active are set. Fixes:6acbfb9697
