Linux内核中Lockdep死锁检测

篇首语：本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理，主要介绍了Linux内核中Lockdep死锁检测相关的知识，希望对你有一定的参考价值。
目录
一、死锁
死锁是两个或者多个进程/线程竞争资源造成相互等待的现象。
举例：如A进程需要资源X，进程B需要资源Y，但X资源被B所占用，Y资源被A占用，且都不释放，造成死锁。
常见的死锁：
1、递归死锁
2、 AB-BA死锁
检测技术：Lockdep
原理：其跟踪每个锁的自身状态和各个锁之间的依赖关系，经过规则验证来保证依赖的关系正确。
二、Lockdep 内核配置
自旋锁与互斥锁
在内核文件lib/Kconfig.debug中有详细的描述
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP 在死锁发生，内核报告相应的死锁
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y
CONFIG_LOCK_STAT 追踪锁竞争的点，解释的更详细
CONFIG_DEBUG_RI_MUTEXES 实时互斥锁语义相关的死锁
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC 检测不正确的活锁（live lock）释放
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP 检测原子内睡眠
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS 锁API引导时间自检
CONFIG_LOCK_TORTURE_TEST 锁的测试
Kernel hacking->Lock Debugging
将这些全打开在内核调试模式下是可以的，但是在生产环境中最好不要打开，因为占用太多内存，牺牲内核的速度。
输出的报告
- WARN*()
- deadlocks/lock inversion scenarios,
- circular lock dependencies,
- and hard IRQ/soft IRQ safe/unsafe locking bugs
三、死锁检测实例
1、试验一：隐藏的加锁
1）程序的简化版
do_each_thread(g, t) /* 'g' : process ptr; 't': thread ptr */
task_lock(t);
[ ... ]
get_task_comm(tasknm, t);
task_unlock(t);
使用迭代的方式获取线程的数据结构信息。先上锁，获取任务信息，再解锁。看起来没有问题。
2）内核输出

- 符号+.+.的含义
'+' 意味着在启用 IRQ 的情况下获取锁定
'.' 意味着在禁用 IRQ 的情况下获取锁定，而不是在 IRQ 上下文中获取
具体含义参考：https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ locking/lockdep-design.txt
通过上面的分析看出，get_task_comm函数尝试获取相同锁，导致死锁，查看这个内核函数，果然有进行上锁。
#define get_task_comm(buf, tsk) ( \\
BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(buf) != TASK_COMM_LEN); \\
__get_task_comm(buf, sizeof(buf), tsk); \\
)
char *__get_task_comm(char *buf, size_t buf_size, struct task_struct *tsk)
task_lock(tsk);
strncpy(buf, tsk->comm, buf_size);
task_unlock(tsk);
return buf;
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(__get_task_comm);
4）解决方法：简化版
do_each_thread(g, t)
task_lock(t);
...
task_unlock(t);
get_task_comm(tasknm, t);
task_lock(t);
...
task_unlock(t);
2、试验二：AB-BA锁
1）模型
2）程序中的锁的顺序
线程1 ：
spin_lock(&lockA);
spin_lock(&lockB);
spin_unlock(&lockB);
spin_unlock(&lockA);
线程2：
spin_lock(&lockB);
spin_lock(&lockA);
spin_unlock(&lockA);
spin_unlock(&lockB);
3）内核检测输出

- Possible unsafe locking scenario:
[ 191.030342] CPU0 CPU1
[ 191.034011] ---- ----

四、锁统计
内核提供锁统计信息，以便轻松识别竞争激烈的锁。
锁可以被争用，也就是说，当上下文想要获取锁，但它已经被占用了，所以它必须等待解锁发生。激烈的争用可能会造成严重的性能瓶颈;
内核配置 CONFIG_LOCK_STAT
命令行
清空锁的状态：echo 0 > /proc/lock_stat
使能锁：echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/lock_stat
不使能锁：echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/lock_stat
五、lockdep编程的建议
使用lockdep_assert_held宏 源码位置// include/linux/lockdep.h
#define lockdep_assert_held(l) do \\
WARN_ON(debug_locks && !lockdep_is_held(l)); \\
while (0)
#define lockdep_assert_held_write(l) do \\
WARN_ON(debug_locks && !lockdep_is_held_type(l, 0)); \\
while (0)
#define lockdep_assert_held_read(l) do \\
WARN_ON(debug_locks && !lockdep_is_held_type(l, 1)); \\
while (0)
#define lockdep_assert_held_once(l) do \\
WARN_ON_ONCE(debug_locks && !lockdep_is_held(l)); \\
while (0)
如果断言失败，则会通过WARN_ON发出警告。
六、lockdep 使用可能存在的问题
存在的问题
- 重复加载和卸载模块可能会导致超出 lockdep 的内部锁定类限制。实际上，要么不要重复加载/卸载模块，要么重置系统。
- 在数据结构比较大的情况下，需要巨大的锁，未能正确初始化每个锁都可能导致lockdep溢出。
- 提示信息：*WARNING* lock debugging disabled!! - possibly due to a lockdep warning. 这可能是由于lockdep提前发出警告而发生的。
解决办法
- 重新启动系统并重试。
- KCSAN能检测到数据竞争
- deadlock eBPF提供的脚本
- helgrind ，TSan 工具 检查多线程应用程序中的数据争用
