The kernel test robot triggered a warning with the following race:
task-ctx A interrupt-ctx B
worker
-> process_one_work()
-> work_item()
-> schedule();
-> sched_submit_work()
-> wq_worker_sleeping()
-> ->sleeping = 1
atomic_dec_and_test(nr_running)
__schedule(); *interrupt*
async_page_fault()
-> local_irq_enable();
-> schedule();
-> sched_submit_work()
-> wq_worker_sleeping()
-> if (WARN_ON(->sleeping)) return
-> __schedule()
-> sched_update_worker()
-> wq_worker_running()
-> atomic_inc(nr_running);
-> ->sleeping = 0;
-> sched_update_worker()
-> wq_worker_running()
if (!->sleeping) return
In this context the warning is pointless everything is fine.
An interrupt before wq_worker_sleeping() will perform the ->sleeping
assignment (0 -> 1 > 0) twice.
An interrupt after wq_worker_sleeping() will trigger the warning and
nr_running will be decremented (by A) and incremented once (only by B, A
will skip it). This is the case until the ->sleeping is zeroed again in
wq_worker_running().
Remove the WARN statement because this condition may happen. Document
that preemption around wq_worker_sleeping() needs to be disabled to
protect ->sleeping and not just as an optimisation.

wq_select_unbound_cpu() is designed for unbound workqueues only, but
it's wrongly called when using a bound workqueue too.
Fixing this ensures work queued to a bound workqueue with
cpu=WORK_CPU_UNBOUND always runs on the local CPU.
Before, that would happen only if wq_unbound_cpumask happened to include
it (likely almost always the case), or was empty, or we got lucky with
forced round-robin placement. So restricting
/sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/cpumask to a small subset of a machine's
CPUs would cause some bound work items to run unexpectedly there.

It's surprising that workqueue_execute_end includes only the work when
its counterpart workqueue_execute_start has both the work and the worker
function.
You can't set a tracing filter or trigger based on the function, and
postprocessing scripts interested in specific functions are harder to
write since they have to remember the work from _start and match it up
with the same field in _end.
Add the function name, taking care to use the copy stashed in the
worker since the work is no longer safe to touch.

An additional check has been recently added to ensure that a RCU related lock
is held while the RCU list is iterated.
The `pwqs' are sometimes iterated without a RCU lock but with the &wq->mutex
acquired leading to a warning.
Teach list_for_each_entry_rcu() that the RCU usage is okay if &wq->mutex
is acquired during the list traversal.

this commit replaces the workqueue_sysfs_unregister() function's

list_for_each_entry_rcu() augmented with a lockdep_is_held() optional

008847f66c ("workqueue: allow rescuer thread to do more work.") made
the rescuer worker requeue the pwq immediately if there may be more
work items which need rescuing instead of waiting for the next mayday
timer expiration. Unfortunately, it doesn't check whether the pwq is
already on the mayday list and unconditionally gets the ref and moves
it onto the list. This doesn't corrupt the list but creates an
additional reference to the pwq. It got queued twice but will only be
removed once.
This leak later can trigger pwq refcnt warning on workqueue
destruction and prevent freeing of the workqueue.

Before actually destrying a workqueue, destroy_workqueue() checks
whether it's actually idle. If it isn't, it prints out a bunch of
warning messages and leaves the workqueue dangling. It unfortunately
has a couple issues.
* Mayday list queueing increments pwq's refcnts which gets detected as
busy and fails the sanity checks. However, because mayday list
queueing is asynchronous, this condition can happen without any
actual work items left in the workqueue.
* Sanity check failure leaves the sysfs interface behind too which can
lead to init failure of newer instances of the workqueue.
This patch fixes the above two by
* If a workqueue has a rescuer, disable and kill the rescuer before
sanity checks. Disabling and killing is guaranteed to flush the
existing mayday list.
* Remove sysfs interface before sanity checks.
