+Subject: [PATCH 324/347] tasklet: Address a race resulting in double-enqueue
+Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.19/older/patches-4.19.246-rt110.tar.xz
+
+The kernel bugzilla has the following race condition reported:
+
+CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
+------------------------------------------------
+test_set SCHED
+ test_set RUN
+ if SCHED
+ add_list
+ raise
+ clear RUN
+<softirq>
+test_set RUN
+test_clear SCHED
+ ->func
+ test_set SCHED
+tasklet_try_unlock ->0
+test_clear SCHED
+ test_set SCHED
+ ->func
+tasklet_try_unlock ->1
+ test_set RUN
+ if SCHED
+ add list
+ raise
+ clear RUN
+ test_set RUN
+ if SCHED
+ add list
+ raise
+ clear RUN
+
+As a result the tasklet is enqueued on both CPUs and run on both CPUs. Due
+to the nature of the list used here, it is possible that further
+(different) tasklets, which are enqueued after this double-enqueued
+tasklet, are scheduled on CPU2 but invoked on CPU1. It is also possible
+that these tasklets won't be invoked at all, because during the second
+enqueue process the t->next pointer is set to NULL - dropping everything
+from the list.
+
+This race will trigger one or two of the WARN_ON() in
+tasklet_action_common().
+The problem is that the tasklet may be invoked multiple times and clear
+SCHED bit on each invocation. This makes it possible to enqueue the
+very same tasklet on different CPUs.
+
+Current RT-devel is using the upstream implementation which does not
+re-run tasklets if they have SCHED set again and so it does not clear
+the SCHED bit multiple times on a single invocation.
+
+Introduce the CHAINED flag. The tasklet will only be enqueued if the
+CHAINED flag has been set successfully.
+If it is possible to exchange the flags (CHAINED | RUN) -> 0 then the
+tasklet won't be re-run. Otherwise the possible SCHED flag is removed
+and the tasklet is re-run again.
