Description Song, Youquan 2008-02-15 03:47:50 UTC
Description of problem:

Install Fedora 9 (sorry, I can not find the entry for F9 bug report). 
Set one task affinity to one CPU core, then set offline the CPU core. After that
we can not set online the CPU core again.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  run the test.sh script:   test.sh 1  ( 1 is the logical CPU )
test.sh script:
 
#!/bin/bash

main(){

    typeset -i CPU=$1
    ./task.sh > /dev/null&
    PID=$!

    if [ `cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu${CPU}/online` = "0" ]; then
        echo "1" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu${CPU}/online
    fi

    MASK=$((1<<${CPU}))

    `taskset -p ${MASK} ${PID} > /dev/null 2>&1`

    echo "0" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu${CPU}/online

    echo "1" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu${CPU}/online

    disown $PID
    kill -9 $PID > /dev/null 2>&1

    echo "PASS\n"

}

typeset -i TEST_CPU=$1
main $TEST_CPU

2. task.sh script as following

#!/bin/bash

while :
do
  NOOP=1
done

3.
  
Actual results:

The test.sh will block at set online the CPU ( echo "1" >
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu${CPU}/online ). 

Expected results:


Additional info:
Happened in Intel Bensley platform (2xXeon 2.83G Harpertown C0, chipset
Blackford G1, 160 SATA)

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2008-02-18 18:07:03 UTC
Does this happen on the upstream kernel as well?

Comment 2 Song, Youquan 2008-02-21 08:59:48 UTC
Yes. the kernel 2.6.24 to 2.6.25-rc2 also exit the bug. 
But the bug is not exit at kernel 2.6.18. 

Comment 3 Chuck Ebbert 2008-02-25 22:33:21 UTC
Does the CPU mask of the running process get changed when the processor is offlined?

And can you get a system state (alt-sysrq-t) when the script hangs?


Comment 4 Song, Youquan 2008-02-27 09:15:50 UTC
Yes, after I set offline the CPU, I use commands "taskset -p $PID and ps --
pid=$PID -o psr" to find that process CPU mask is change and process migrate 
to other CPU correctly.

This bug is still exits on FC9 Beta.

Comment 8 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 05:12:51 UTC
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.

Comment 9 Bug Zapper 2009-06-09 23:34:04 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 9.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '9'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Comment 10 Bug Zapper 2009-07-14 15:42:07 UTC
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
