H A Dcallout.hdiff 234952 Thu May 03 08:48:04 MDT 2012 kib When callout_reset_on() cannot immediately migrate a callout since it
is running on other cpu, the CALLOUT_PENDING flag is temporarily
cleared. Then, callout_stop() on this, in fact active, callout fails
because CALLOUT_PENDING is not set, and callout_stop() returns 0.

Now, in sleepq_check_timeout(), the failed callout_stop() causes the
sleepq code to execute mi_switch() without even setting the wmesg,
since the switch-out is supposed to be transient. In fact, the thread
is put off the CPU for full timeout interval, instead of being put on
runq immediately. Until timeout fires, the process is unkillable for
obvious reasons.

Fix this by marking the migrating callouts with CALLOUT_DFRMIGRATION
flag. The flag is cleared by callout_stop_safe() when the function
detects a migration, besides returning the success. The softclock()
rechecks the flag for migrating callout and cancels its execution if
the flag was cleared meantime.
