On KVM hosts\ntry_to_migrate() ends up in kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() ->\ntdp_mmu_zap_leafs(), which is expensive, so unmapping a large batch keeps\nthe CPU busy for a long time.\n\nThe loop already calls cond_resched(), but on PREEMPTION kernels that is\na no-op, and involuntary preemption is not a Tasks-RCU quiescent state.\n\nA long batch therefore never reports a quiescent state, and the\nmigrating task (e.g. kcompactd) becomes a Tasks-RCU holdout, stalling the\nTasks-RCU grace period for minutes, which is common at Meta fleet:\n\n  INFO: rcu_tasks detected stalls on tasks:\n  0000000055349ecc: .. nvcsw: 1157401/1157401 holdout: 1 idle_cpu: -1/56 task:kcompactd0      state:R  running task\n  Call Trace:\n   tdp_mmu_zap_leafs\n   tdp_mmu_next_root\n   gfn_to_pfn_cache_invalidate_start\n   kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start\n   __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start\n   try_to_migrate_one\n   try_to_migrate\n   migrate_pages_batch\n   migrate_pages\n   compact_zone\n   compact_node\n   kcompactd\n   kthread\n\nUse cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() so a quiescent state is reported even\nwhen cond_resched() does nothing.\n\nThis has also been discussed at [1]"}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["mm/migrate.c"],"versions":[{"version":"8315f42295d2667a7f942f154b73a86fd7cb2227","lessThan":"8c6d63d434ebb85c6cf3dac1e70a171b183c6614","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8315f42295d2667a7f942f154b73a86fd7cb2227","lessThan":"4757542649af56d894e25e30f57cd497dffad53f","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8315f42295d2667a7f942f154b73a86fd7cb2227","lessThan":"4996a7bc01ef35570664854dac2530c604981039","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8315f42295d2667a7f942f154b73a86fd7cb2227","lessThan":"5dc0daff0341c6baba19c38f47d299ac831d7e99","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8315f42295d2667a7f942f154b73a86fd7cb2227","lessThan":"66734981b4d3c105223a13c827c9c73be18d91ad","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8315f42295d2667a7f942f154b73a86fd7cb2227","lessThan":"efe8f86c0916f0f74eea74ae21a3b37f728c6bad","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["mm/migrate.c"],"versions":[{"version":"3.18","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"3.18","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.188","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.157","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.109","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.50","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.4","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.18","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.188"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.18","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.157"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.18","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.109"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.18","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.50"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.18","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.4"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.18","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8c6d63d434ebb85c6cf3dac1e70a171b183c6614"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4757542649af56d894e25e30f57cd497dffad53f"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4996a7bc01ef35570664854dac2530c604981039"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5dc0daff0341c6baba19c38f47d299ac831d7e99"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/66734981b4d3c105223a13c827c9c73be18d91ad"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/efe8f86c0916f0f74eea74ae21a3b37f728c6bad"}],"title":"mm/migrate: report RCU-tasks quiescent states in migrate_pages_batch()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
