For this case to occur, we have to have raised some work on a CPU that we don't think we've raised it on (so that we perform a decrement both on said CPU and via 'count' in cpu_pmu_handle_irq_none). So in cpu_pmu_handle_irq_none we'd have to see the CPU as online, and irq_work_queue_on would have to succeed yet return false. I can only see that it can do the oppposite (more on the below).

A CPU can go offline concurrently with irq_work_queue_on, perhaps just before it calls arch_send_call_function_single_ipi then unconditionally returns true. So in that case, cpu_pmu->remaining_irq_work will be stuck above zero, because we're waiting for an offline CPU to decrement it. You're dead even with the hack in cpu_pmu_do_percpu_work.

It is (or at least would have been) possible to stop and restart perf without waking the other CPU. This would reset the counter allowing perf to run again but leaves the irqwork pending on the stopped CPU... and I couldn't find anything in the stop/restart logic that would clear the irqwork meaning the workaround logic would run when the CPU comes alive again. >> +} >> + >> +/* >> + * Called when the main interrupt handler cannot determine the source >> + * of interrupt.

The whole concept of the weird "add a big number and then take it away at the end" (which is why I didn't want to call it remaining) will be removed in the next revision of the patch. >> + >> + if (irq_num != cpu_pmu->muxed_spi_workaround_irq) >> + return IRQ_NONE; >> + >> + disable_irq_nosync(cpu_pmu->muxed_spi_workaround_irq); >> + >> + /* >> + * No worker cpu will decrement remaining_irq_work to zero whilst >> + * we have added CONFIG_NR_CPUS to it (because the current CPU will >> + * not have work assigned to it) >> + */ >> + atomic_add(count, &cpu_pmu->remaining_irq_work); >> + >> + for_each_online_cpu(cpu) { > > There's a fundamental race here, given CPU hotplug isn't inhibited.

The ambition of the silly workaround (your commands above *and* below) was to make the race (almost) benign. It was, on reflection, not a good way to try and solve the problem. I think I've come up with a way to make this code properly safe even without having to take the hotplug lock (because taking the hotplug lock would require us to deploy the workaround from a task). It means adding a little extra code to the hotplug notifier code but end the end it should come out OK.

Some ARM platforms mux the PMU interrupt of every core into a single SPI. On such platforms if the PMU of any core except 0 raises an interrupt then it cannot be serviced and eventually, if you are lucky, the spurious irq detection might forcefully disable the interrupt. On these SoCs it is not possible to determine which core raised the interrupt so workaround this issue by queuing irqwork on the other cores whenever the primary interrupt handler is unable to service the interrupt. The u8500 platform has an alternative workaround that dynamically alters the affinity of the PMU interrupt. This workaround logic is no longer required so the original code is removed as is the hook it relied upon. Tested on imx6q (which has fours cores/PMUs all muxed to a single SPI) using a simple soak, combined perf and CPU hotplug soak and using perf fuzzer's fast_repro.sh.
