[PATCH v5 0/2] cpuhp: fix some st->target issues

[PATCH v5 0/2] cpuhp: fix some st->target issues

[Phil Auld]

Fix a few cpuhp related issues.

The first prevents target_store() from calling cpu_down() when
target == state which prevents the cpu being incorrectly marked
as dying.  The second just makes the boot cpu have a valid cpuhp
target rather than 0 (CPU_OFFLINE) while being in state
CPU_ONLINE.

v3: Added code to make sure st->target == target in the nop case.

v4: Use WARN_ON in the case where state == target but st->target does
not.

v5: Fixed lowercase on first patch title and cleaned up cover letter.
Rebased on v6.1-rc5.

[PATCH v5 1/2] cpuhp: Make target_store() a nop when target == state

[Phil Auld]

Writing the current state back in hotplug/target calls cpu_down()
which will set cpu dying even when it isn't and then nothing will
ever clear it. A stress test that reads values and writes them back
for all cpu device files in sysfs will trigger the BUG() in
select_fallback_rq once all cpus are marked as dying.

kernel/cpu.c::target_store()
	...
        if (st->state < target)
                ret = cpu_up(dev->id, target);
        else
                ret = cpu_down(dev->id, target);

cpu_down() -> cpu_set_state()
	 bool bringup = st->state < target;
	 ...
	 if (cpu_dying(cpu) != !bringup)
		set_cpu_dying(cpu, !bringup);

Fix this by letting state==target fall through in the target_store()
conditional. Also make sure st->target == target in that case.

[PATCH v5 2/2] cpuhp: Set cpuhp target for boot cpu

[Phil Auld]

Since the boot cpu does not go through the hotplug process it ends
up with state == CPUHP_ONLINE but target == CPUHP_OFFLINE.
So set the target to match in boot_cpu_hotplug_init().
