[PATCH 1/3] sched/core: Dequeue PSI signals for blocked tasks that are delayed
From: K Prateek Nayak
Date: Thu Oct 10 2024 - 04:46:58 EST
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
psi_dequeue() in for blocked task expects psi_sched_switch() to clear
the TSK_.*RUNNING PSI flags and set the TSK_IOWAIT flags however
psi_sched_switch() uses "!task_on_rq_queued(prev)" to detect if the task
is blocked or still runnable which is no longer true with DELAY_DEQUEUE
since a blocking task can be left queued on the runqueue.
This can lead to PSI splats similar to:
psi: inconsistent task state! task=... cpu=... psi_flags=4 clear=0 set=4
when the task is requeued since the TSK_RUNNING flag was not cleared
when the task was blocked.
Explicitly communicate that the task was blocked to psi_sched_switch()
even if it was delayed and is still on the runqueue.
