40b5b4b622 random: clear fast pool, crng, and batches in cpuhp bring up
commit 3191dd5a11 upstream.

For the irq randomness fast pool, rather than having to use expensive
atomics, which were visibly the most expensive thing in the entire irq
handler, simply take care of the extreme edge case of resetting count to
zero in the cpuhp online handler, just after workqueues have been
reenabled. This simplifies the code a bit and lets us use vanilla
variables rather than atomics, and performance should be improved.

As well, very early on when the CPU comes up, while interrupts are still
disabled, we clear out the per-cpu crng and its batches, so that it
always starts with fresh randomness.

9f6e4f48e9 cpu/hotplug: Cure the cpusets trainwreck
commit b22afcdf04 upstream.

Alexey and Joshua tried to solve a cpusets related hotplug problem which is
user space visible and results in unexpected behaviour for some time after
a CPU has been plugged in and the corresponding uevent was delivered.

cpusets delegate the hotplug work (rebuilding cpumasks etc.) to a
workqueue. This is done because the cpusets code has already a lock
nesting of cgroups_mutex -> cpu_hotplug_lock. A synchronous callback or
waiting for the work to finish with cpu_hotplug_lock held can and will
deadlock because that results in the reverse lock order.

As a consequence the uevent can be delivered before cpusets have consistent
state which means that a user space invocation of sched_setaffinity() to
move a task to the plugged CPU fails up to the point where the scheduled
work has been processed.

The same is true for CPU unplug, but that does not create user observable
failure (yet).

It's still inconsistent to claim that an operation is finished before it
actually is and that's the real issue at hand. uevents just make it
reliably observable.

Obviously the problem should be fixed in cpusets/cgroups, but untangling
that is pretty much impossible because according to the changelog of the
commit which introduced this 8 years ago:

 3a5a6d0c2b03("cpuset: don't nest cgroup_mutex inside get_online_cpus()")

the lock order cgroups_mutex -> cpu_hotplug_lock is a design decision and
the whole code is built around that.

So bite the bullet and invoke the relevant cpuset function, which waits for
the work to finish, in _cpu_up/down() after dropping cpu_hotplug_lock and
only when tasks are not frozen by suspend/hibernate because that would
obviously wait forever.

Waiting there with cpu_add_remove_lock, which is protecting the present
and possible CPU maps, held is not a problem at all because neither work
queues nor cpusets/cgroups have any lockchains related to that lock.

Waiting in the hotplug machinery is not problematic either because there
are already state callbacks which wait for hardware queues to drain. It
makes the operations slightly slower, but hotplug is slow anyway.

This ensures that state is consistent before returning from a hotplug
up/down operation. It's still inconsistent during the operation, but that's
a different story.

Add a large comment which explains why this is done and why this is not a
dump ground for the hack of the day to work around half thought out locking
schemes. Document also the implications vs. hotplug operations and
serialization or the lack of it.

Thanks to Alexy and Joshua for analyzing why this temporary
sched_setaffinity() failure happened.

8859f5899a kernel/cpu: add arch override for clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() mm handling
[ Upstream commit 8ff00399b1 ]

powerpc/64s keeps a counter in the mm which counts bits set in
mm_cpumask as well as other things. This means it can't use generic code
to clear bits out of the mask and doesn't adjust the arch specific
counter.

Add an arch override that allows powerpc/64s to use
clear_tasks_mm_cpumask().

1733d2a94f x86/speculation: Remove redundant arch_smt_update() invocation
commit 34d66caf25 upstream.

With commit a74cfffb03 ("x86/speculation: Rework SMT state change"),
arch_smt_update() is invoked from each individual CPU hotplug function.

Therefore the extra arch_smt_update() call in the sysfs SMT control is
redundant.

877a96a390 cpu/hotplug, stop_machine: Fix stop_machine vs hotplug order
[ Upstream commit 45178ac0ce ]

Paul reported a very sporadic, rcutorture induced, workqueue failure.
When the planets align, the workqueue rescuer's self-migrate fails and
then triggers a WARN for running a work on the wrong CPU.

Tejun then figured that set_cpus_allowed_ptr()'s stop_one_cpu() call
could be ignored! When stopper->enabled is false, stop_machine will
insta complete the work, without actually doing the work. Worse, it
will not WARN about this (we really should fix this).

It turns out there is a small window where a freshly online'ed CPU is
marked 'online' but doesn't yet have the stopper task running:

	BP				AP

	bringup_cpu()
	  __cpu_up(cpu, idle)	 -->	start_secondary()
					...
					cpu_startup_entry()
	  bringup_wait_for_ap()
	    wait_for_ap_thread() <--	  cpuhp_online_idle()
					  while (1)
					    do_idle()

					... available to run kthreads ...

	    stop_machine_unpark()
	      stopper->enable = true;

Close this by moving the stop_machine_unpark() into
cpuhp_online_idle(), such that the stopper thread is ready before we
start the idle loop and schedule.

fa8617fdda cpu/speculation: Uninline and export CPU mitigations helpers
commit 731dc9df97 upstream.

A kernel module may need to check the value of the "mitigations=" kernel
command line parameter as part of its setup when the module needs
to perform software mitigations for a CPU flaw.

Uninline and export the helper functions surrounding the cpu_mitigations
enum to allow for their usage from a module.

Lastly, privatize the enum and cpu_mitigations variable since the value of
cpu_mitigations can be checked with the exported helper functions.

58c6643b94 cpu/speculation: Warn on unsupported mitigations= parameter
commit 1bf7272028 upstream.

Currently, if the user specifies an unsupported mitigation strategy on the
kernel command line, it will be ignored silently.  The code will fall back
to the default strategy, possibly leaving the system more vulnerable than
expected.

This may happen due to e.g. a simple typo, or, for a stable kernel release,
because not all mitigation strategies have been backported.

Inform the user by printing a message.

b9284404b1 x86/power: Fix 'nosmt' vs hibernation triple fault during resume
commit ec527c3180 upstream.

As explained in

	0cc3cd2165 ("cpu/hotplug: Boot HT siblings at least once")

we always, no matter what, have to bring up x86 HT siblings during boot at
least once in order to avoid first MCE bringing the system to its knees.

That means that whenever 'nosmt' is supplied on the kernel command-line,
all the HT siblings are as a result sitting in mwait or cpudile after
going through the online-offline cycle at least once.

This causes a serious issue though when a kernel, which saw 'nosmt' on its
commandline, is going to perform resume from hibernation: if the resume
from the hibernated image is successful, cr3 is flipped in order to point
to the address space of the kernel that is being resumed, which in turn
means that all the HT siblings are all of a sudden mwaiting on address
which is no longer valid.

That results in triple fault shortly after cr3 is switched, and machine
reboots.

Fix this by always waking up all the SMT siblings before initiating the
'restore from hibernation' process; this guarantees that all the HT
siblings will be properly carried over to the resumed kernel waiting in
resume_play_dead(), and acted upon accordingly afterwards, based on the
target kernel configuration.

Symmetricaly, the resumed kernel has to push the SMT siblings to mwait
again in case it has SMT disabled; this means it has to online all
the siblings when resuming (so that they come out of hlt) and offline
them again to let them reach mwait.

ed1dfe838f cpu/speculation: Add 'mitigations=' cmdline option
commit 98af845294 upstream

Keeping track of the number of mitigations for all the CPU speculation
bugs has become overwhelming for many users.  It's getting more and more
complicated to decide which mitigations are needed for a given
architecture.  Complicating matters is the fact that each arch tends to
have its own custom way to mitigate the same vulnerability.

Most users fall into a few basic categories:

a) they want all mitigations off;

b) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT enabled even if
   it's vulnerable; or

c) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT disabled if
   vulnerable.

Define a set of curated, arch-independent options, each of which is an
aggregation of existing options:

- mitigations=off: Disable all mitigations.

- mitigations=auto: [default] Enable all the default mitigations, but
  leave SMT enabled, even if it's vulnerable.

- mitigations=auto,nosmt: Enable all the default mitigations, disabling
  SMT if needed by a mitigation.

Currently, these options are placeholders which don't actually do
anything.  They will be fleshed out in upcoming patches.

We've also had a similar warning in sched_init_smp() for every
asymmetric system that would enable the sched_asym_cpucapacity static
key, although that was singled out in:

  commit 40fa3780ba ("sched/core: Take the hotplug lock in sched_init_smp()")

Those warnings are actually harmless, since we cannot have hotplug
operations at the time they appear. Instead of starting to sprinkle
useless hotplug lock operations in the init codepaths, mute the
warnings until they start warning about real problems.

It turns out that the SMP=y CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n case has been broken
forever in case that a bringup callback fails. Unfortunately this issue was
not recognized when the CPU hotplug code was reworked, so the shortcoming
just stayed in place.

When a bringup callback fails, the CPU hotplug code rolls back the
operation and takes the CPU offline.

The 'nosmt' command line argument uses a bringup failure to abort the
bringup of SMT sibling CPUs. This partial bringup is required due to the
MCE misdesign on Intel CPUs.

With CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y the rollback works perfectly fine, but
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n lacks essential mechanisms to exercise the low level
teardown of a CPU including the synchronizations in various facilities like
RCU, NOHZ and others.

As a consequence the teardown callbacks which must be executed on the
outgoing CPU within stop machine with interrupts disabled are executed on
the control CPU in interrupt enabled and preemptible context causing the
kernel to crash and burn. The pre state machine code has a different
failure mode which is more subtle and resulting in a less obvious use after
free crash because the control side frees resources which are still in use
by the undead CPU.

But this is not a x86 only problem. Any architecture which supports the
SMP=y HOTPLUG_CPU=n combination suffers from the same issue. It's just less
likely to be triggered because in 99.99999% of the cases all bringup
callbacks succeed.

The easy solution of making HOTPLUG_CPU mandatory for SMP is not working on
all architectures as the following architectures have either no hotplug
support at all or not all subarchitectures support it:

 alpha, arc, hexagon, openrisc, riscv, sparc (32bit), mips (partial).

Crashing the kernel in such a situation is not an acceptable state
either.

Implement a minimal rollback variant by limiting the teardown to the point
where all regular teardown callbacks have been invoked and leave the CPU in
the 'dead' idle state. This has the following consequences:

 - the CPU is brought down to the point where the stop_machine takedown
   would happen.

 - the CPU stays there forever and is idle

 - The CPU is cleared in the CPU active mask, but not in the CPU online
   mask which is a legit state.

 - Interrupts are not forced away from the CPU

 - All facilities which only look at online mask would still see it, but
   that is the case during normal hotplug/unplug operations as well. It's
   just a (way) longer time frame.

This will expose issues, which haven't been exposed before or only seldom,
because now the normally transient state of being non active but online is
a permanent state. In testing this exposed already an issue vs. work queues
where the vmstat code schedules work on the almost dead CPU which ends up
in an unbound workqueue and triggers 'preemtible context' warnings. This is
not a problem of this change, it merily exposes an already existing issue.
Still this is better than crashing fully without a chance to debug it.

This is mainly thought as workaround for those architectures which do not
support HOTPLUG_CPU. All others should enforce HOTPLUG_CPU for SMP.

5e1f1c1f5d cpu/hotplug: Fix "SMT disabled by BIOS" detection for KVM
commit b284909aba upstream.

With the following commit:

  73d5e2b472 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")

... the hotplug code attempted to detect when SMT was disabled by BIOS,
in which case it reported SMT as permanently disabled.  However, that
code broke a virt hotplug scenario, where the guest is booted with only
primary CPU threads, and a sibling is brought online later.

The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to reliably
distinguish between the HW "SMT disabled by BIOS" case and the virt
"sibling not yet brought online" case.  So the above-mentioned commit
was a bit misguided, as it permanently disabled SMT for both cases,
preventing future virt sibling hotplugs.

Going back and reviewing the original problems which were attempted to
be solved by that commit, when SMT was disabled in BIOS:

  1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control showed "on" instead of
     "notsupported"; and

  2) vmx_vm_init() was incorrectly showing the L1TF_MSG_SMT warning.

I'd propose that we instead consider #1 above to not actually be a
problem.  Because, at least in the virt case, it's possible that SMT
wasn't disabled by BIOS and a sibling thread could be brought online
later.  So it makes sense to just always default the smt control to "on"
to allow for that possibility (assuming cpuid indicates that the CPU
supports SMT).

The real problem is #2, which has a simple fix: change vmx_vm_init() to
query the actual current SMT state -- i.e., whether any siblings are
currently online -- instead of looking at the SMT "control" sysfs value.

So fix it by:

  a) reverting the original "fix" and its followup fix:

     73d5e2b472 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
     bc2d8d262c ("cpu/hotplug: Fix SMT supported evaluation")

     and

  b) changing vmx_vm_init() to query the actual current SMT state --
     instead of the sysfs control value -- to determine whether the L1TF
     warning is needed.  This also requires the 'sched_smt_present'
     variable to exported, instead of 'cpu_smt_control'.

36a4c5fc92 x86/speculation: Rework SMT state change
commit a74cfffb03 upstream

arch_smt_update() is only called when the sysfs SMT control knob is
changed. This means that when SMT is enabled in the sysfs control knob the
system is considered to have SMT active even if all siblings are offline.

To allow finegrained control of the speculation mitigations, the actual SMT
state is more interesting than the fact that siblings could be enabled.

Rework the code, so arch_smt_update() is invoked from each individual CPU
hotplug function, and simplify the update function while at it.

300a6f27dd x86/speculation: Enable cross-hyperthread spectre v2 STIBP mitigation
commit 53c613fe63 upstream

STIBP is a feature provided by certain Intel ucodes / CPUs. This feature
(once enabled) prevents cross-hyperthread control of decisions made by
indirect branch predictors.

Enable this feature if

- the CPU is vulnerable to spectre v2
- the CPU supports SMT and has SMT siblings online
- spectre_v2 mitigation autoselection is enabled (default)

After some previous discussion, this leaves STIBP on all the time, as wrmsr
on crossing kernel boundary is a no-no. This could perhaps later be a bit
more optimized (like disabling it in NOHZ, experiment with disabling it in
idle, etc) if needed.

Note that the synchronization of the mask manipulation via newly added
spec_ctrl_mutex is currently not strictly needed, as the only updater is
already being serialized by cpu_add_remove_lock, but let's make this a
little bit more future-proof.

1d92a611db cpu/hotplug: Prevent state corruption on error rollback
commit 69fa6eb7d6 upstream.

When a teardown callback fails, the CPU hotplug code brings the CPU back to
the previous state. The previous state becomes the new target state. The
rollback happens in undo_cpu_down() which increments the state
unconditionally even if the state is already the same as the target.

As a consequence the next CPU hotplug operation will start at the wrong
state. This is easily to observe when __cpu_disable() fails.

Prevent the unconditional undo by checking the state vs. target before
incrementing state and fix up the consequently wrong conditional in the
unplug code which handles the failure of the final CPU take down on the
control CPU side.

9eb0a3cce0 cpu/hotplug: Fix SMT supported evaluation
commit bc2d8d262c upstream

Josh reported that the late SMT evaluation in cpu_smt_state_init() sets
cpu_smt_control to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED in case that 'nosmt' was supplied
on the kernel command line as it cannot differentiate between SMT disabled
by BIOS and SMT soft disable via 'nosmt'. That wreckages the state and
makes the sysfs interface unusable.

Rework this so that during bringup of the non boot CPUs the availability of
SMT is determined in cpu_smt_allowed(). If a newly booted CPU is not a
'primary' thread then set the local cpu_smt_available marker and evaluate
this explicitely right after the initial SMP bringup has finished.

SMT evaulation on x86 is a trainwreck as the firmware has all the
information _before_ booting the kernel, but there is no interface to query
it.

If SMT is disabled in BIOS, the CPU code doesn't properly detect it.
The /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control file shows 'on', and the 'l1tf'
vulnerabilities file shows SMT as vulnerable.

Fix it by forcing 'cpu_smt_control' to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED in such a
case.  Unfortunately the detection can only be done after bringing all
the CPUs online, so we have to overwrite any previous writes to the
variable.

That was fine so far as this was only required to make the output of the

c2fdbbb47c x86/KVM: Warn user if KVM is loaded SMT and L1TF CPU bug being present
commit 26acfb666a upstream

If the L1TF CPU bug is present we allow the KVM module to be loaded as the
major of users that use Linux and KVM have trusted guests and do not want a
broken setup.

Cloud vendors are the ones that are uncomfortable with CVE 2018-3620 and as
such they are the ones that should set nosmt to one.

Setting 'nosmt' means that the system administrator also needs to disable
SMT (Hyper-threading) in the BIOS, or via the 'nosmt' command line
parameter, or via the /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control. See commit
05736e4ac1 ("cpu/hotplug: Provide knobs to control SMT").

Other mitigations are to use task affinity, cpu sets, interrupt binding,
etc - anything to make sure that _only_ the same guests vCPUs are running
on sibling threads.

Due to the way Machine Check Exceptions work on X86 hyperthreads it's
required to boot up _all_ logical cores at least once in order to set the
CR4.MCE bit.

So instead of ignoring the sibling threads right away, let them boot up
once so they can configure themselves. After they came out of the initial
boot stage check whether its a "secondary" sibling and cancel the operation
which puts the CPU back into offline state.

c5ac43ee8c cpu/hotplug: Provide knobs to control SMT
commit 05736e4ac1 upstream

Provide a command line and a sysfs knob to control SMT.

The command line options are:

 'nosmt':	Enumerate secondary threads, but do not online them

 'nosmt=force': Ignore secondary threads completely during enumeration
 		via MP table and ACPI/MADT.

The sysfs control file has the following states (read/write):

 'on':		 SMT is enabled. Secondary threads can be freely onlined
 'off':		 SMT is disabled. Secondary threads, even if enumerated
 		 cannot be onlined
 'forceoff':	 SMT is permanentely disabled. Writes to the control
 		 file are rejected.
 'notsupported': SMT is not supported by the CPU

The command line option 'nosmt' sets the sysfs control to 'off'. This
can be changed to 'on' to reenable SMT during runtime.

The command line option 'nosmt=force' sets the sysfs control to
'forceoff'. This cannot be changed during runtime.

When SMT is 'on' and the control file is changed to 'off' then all online
secondary threads are offlined and attempts to online a secondary thread
later on are rejected.

When SMT is 'off' and the control file is changed to 'on' then secondary
threads can be onlined again. The 'off' -> 'on' transition does not
automatically online the secondary threads.

When the control file is set to 'forceoff', the behaviour is the same as
setting it to 'off', but the operation is irreversible and later writes to
the control file are rejected.

When the control status is 'notsupported' then writes to the control file
are rejected.

6beba29c66 cpu/hotplug: Split do_cpu_down()
commit cc1fe215e1 upstream

Split out the inner workings of do_cpu_down() to allow reuse of that
function for the upcoming SMT disabling mechanism.

No functional change.

26a6dcc713 cpu/hotplug: Make bringup/teardown of smp threads symmetric
commit c4de65696d upstream

The asymmetry caused a warning to trigger if the bootup was stopped in state
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE. The warning no longer triggers as kthread_park() can
now be invoked on already or still parked threads. But there is still no
reason to have this be asymmetric.

b7722f4ac3 init: rename and re-order boot_cpu_state_init()
commit b5b1404d08 upstream.

This is purely a preparatory patch for upcoming changes during the 4.19
merge window.

We have a function called "boot_cpu_state_init()" that isn't really
about the bootup cpu state: that is done much earlier by the similarly
named "boot_cpu_init()" (note lack of "state" in name).

This function initializes some hotplug CPU state, and needs to run after
the percpu data has been properly initialized.  It even has a comment to
that effect.

Except it _doesn't_ actually run after the percpu data has been properly
initialized.  On x86 it happens to do that, but on at least arm and
arm64, the percpu base pointers are initialized by the arch-specific
'smp_prepare_boot_cpu()' hook, which ran _after_ boot_cpu_state_init().

This had some unexpected results, and in particular we have a patch
pending for the merge window that did the obvious cleanup of using
'this_cpu_write()' in the cpu hotplug init code:

  -       per_cpu_ptr(&cpuhp_state, smp_processor_id())->state = CPUHP_ONLINE;
  +       this_cpu_write(cpuhp_state.state, CPUHP_ONLINE);

which is obviously the right thing to do.  Except because of the
ordering issue, it actually failed miserably and unexpectedly on arm64.

So this just fixes the ordering, and changes the name of the function to
be 'boot_cpu_hotplug_init()' to make it obvious that it's about cpu
hotplug state, because the core CPU state was supposed to have already
been done earlier.

Marked for stable, since the (not yet merged) patch that will show this
problem is marked for stable.

6fae6de72a timers: Reinitialize per cpu bases on hotplug
commit 26456f87ac upstream.

The timer wheel bases are not (re)initialized on CPU hotplug. That leaves
them with a potentially stale clk and next_expiry valuem, which can cause
trouble then the CPU is plugged.

Add a prepare callback which forwards the clock, sets next_expiry to far in
the future and reset the control flags to a known state.

Set base->must_forward_clk so the first timer which is queued will try to
forward the clock to current jiffies.

1f7c70d6b2 cpu/hotplug: Reset node state after operation
The recent rework of the cpu hotplug internals changed the usage of the per
cpu state->node field, but missed to clean it up after usage.

So subsequent hotplug operations use the stale pointer from a previous
operation and hand it into the callback functions. The callbacks then
dereference a pointer which either belongs to a different facility or
points to freed and potentially reused memory. In either case data
corruption and crashes are the obvious consequence.

Reset the node and the last pointers in the per cpu state to NULL after the
operation which set them has completed.

27efed3e83 Merge branch 'core-watchdog-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull watchddog clean-up and fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The watchdog (hard/softlockup detector) code is pretty much broken in
  its current state. The patch series addresses this by removing all
  duct tape and refactoring it into a workable state.

  The reasons why I ask for inclusion that late in the cycle are:

   1) The code causes lockdep splats vs. hotplug locking which get
      reported over and over. Unfortunately there is no easy fix.

   2) The risk of breakage is minimal because it's already broken

   3) As 4.14 is a long term stable kernel, I prefer to have working
      watchdog code in that and the lockdep issues resolved. I wouldn't
      ask you to pull if 4.14 wouldn't be a LTS kernel or if the
      solution would be easy to backport.

   4) The series was around before the merge window opened, but then got
      delayed due to the UP failure caused by the for_each_cpu()
      surprise which we discussed recently.

  Changes vs. V1:

   - Addressed your review points

   - Addressed the warning in the powerpc code which was discovered late

   - Changed two function names which made sense up to a certain point
     in the series. Now they match what they do in the end.

   - Fixed a 'unused variable' warning, which got not detected by the
     intel robot. I triggered it when trying all possible related config
     combinations manually. Randconfig testing seems not random enough.

  The changes have been tested by and reviewed by Don Zickus and tested
  and acked by Micheal Ellerman for powerpc"

1db49484f2 smp/hotplug: Hotplug state fail injection
Add a sysfs file to one-time fail a specific state. This can be used
to test the state rollback code paths.

Something like this (hotplug-up.sh):

  #!/bin/bash

  echo 0 > /debug/sched_debug
  echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/cpuhp/enable

  ALL_STATES=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/hotplug/states | cut -d':' -f1`
  STATES=${1:-$ALL_STATES}

  for state in $STATES
  do
	  echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	  echo 0 > /debug/tracing/trace
	  echo Fail state: $state
	  echo $state > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/hotplug/fail
	  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/hotplug/fail
	  echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

	  cat /debug/tracing/trace > hotfail-${state}.trace

	  sleep 1
  done

Can be used to test for all possible rollback (barring multi-instance)
scenarios on CPU-up, CPU-down is a trivial modification of the above.

5ebe7742ff smp/hotplug: Differentiate the AP completion between up and down

724a86881d smp/hotplug: Callback vs state-machine consistency
While the generic callback functions have an 'int' return and thus
appear to be allowed to return error, this is not true for all states.

Specifically, what used to be STARTING/DYING are ran with IRQs
disabled from critical parts of CPU bringup/teardown and are not
allowed to fail. Add WARNs to enforce this rule.

But since some callbacks are indeed allowed to fail, we have the
situation where a state-machine rollback encounters a failure, in this
case we're stuck, we can't go forward and we can't go back. Also add a
WARN for that case.

AFAICT this is a fundamental 'problem' with no real obvious solution.
We want the 'prepare' callbacks to allow failure on either up or down.
Typically on prepare-up this would be things like -ENOMEM from
resource allocations, and the typical usage in prepare-down would be
something like -EBUSY to avoid CPUs being taken away.

4dddfb5faa smp/hotplug: Rewrite AP state machine core
There is currently no explicit state change on rollback. That is,
st->bringup, st->rollback and st->target are not consistent when doing
the rollback.

Rework the AP state handling to be more coherent. This does mean we
have to do a second AP kick-and-wait for rollback, but since rollback
is the slow path of a slowpath, this really should not matter.

Take this opportunity to simplify the AP thread function to only run a
single callback per invocation. This unifies the three single/up/down
modes is supports. The looping it used to do for up/down are achieved
by retaining should_run and relying on the main smpboot_thread_fn()
loop.

(I have most of a patch that does the same for the BP state handling,
but that's not critical and gets a little complicated because
CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU does the AP handoff from a callback, which gets
recursive @st usage, I still have de-fugly that.)

[ tglx: Move cpuhp_down_callbacks() et al. into the HOTPLUG_CPU section to
  	avoid gcc complaining about unused functions. Make the HOTPLUG_CPU
  	one piece instead of having two consecutive ifdef sections of the
  	same type. ]

941154bd69 watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Prevent CPU hotplug deadlock
The following deadlock is possible in the watchdog hotplug code:

  cpus_write_lock()
    ...
      takedown_cpu()
        smpboot_park_threads()
          smpboot_park_thread()
            kthread_park()
              ->park() := watchdog_disable()
                watchdog_nmi_disable()
                  perf_event_release_kernel();
                    put_event()
                      _free_event()
                        ->destroy() := hw_perf_event_destroy()
                          x86_release_hardware()
                            release_ds_buffers()
                              get_online_cpus()

when a per cpu watchdog perf event is destroyed which drops the last
reference to the PMU hardware. The cleanup code there invokes
get_online_cpus() which instantly deadlocks because the hotplug percpu
rwsem is write locked.

To solve this add a deferring mechanism:

  cpus_write_lock()
			   kthread_park()
			    watchdog_nmi_disable(deferred)
			      perf_event_disable(event);
			      move_event_to_deferred(event);
			   ....
  cpus_write_unlock()
  cleaup_deferred_events()
    perf_event_release_kernel()

This is still properly serialized against concurrent hotplug via the
cpu_add_remove_lock, which is held by the task which initiated the hotplug
event.

This is also used to handle event destruction when the watchdog threads are
parked via other mechanisms than CPU hotplug.

a58163d8ca rcu: Migrate callbacks earlier in the CPU-offline timeline
RCU callbacks must be migrated away from an outgoing CPU, and this is
done near the end of the CPU-hotplug operation, after the outgoing CPU is
long gone.  Unfortunately, this means that other CPU-hotplug callbacks
can execute while the outgoing CPU's callbacks are still immobilized
on the long-gone CPU's callback lists.  If any of these CPU-hotplug
callbacks must wait, either directly or indirectly, for the invocation
of any of the immobilized RCU callbacks, the system will hang.

This commit avoids such hangs by migrating the callbacks away from the
outgoing CPU immediately upon its departure, shortly after the return
from __cpu_die() in takedown_cpu().  Thus, RCU is able to advance these
callbacks and invoke them, which allows all the after-the-fact CPU-hotplug
callbacks to wait on these RCU callbacks without risk of a hang.

While in the neighborhood, this commit also moves rcu_send_cbs_to_orphanage()
and rcu_adopt_orphan_cbs() under a pre-existing #ifdef to avoid including
dead code on the one hand and to avoid define-without-use warnings on the
other hand.

0c96b27305 smp/hotplug: Handle removal correctly in cpuhp_store_callbacks()
If cpuhp_store_callbacks() is called for CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN or
CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN, which are the indicators for dynamically allocated
states, then cpuhp_store_callbacks() allocates a new dynamic state. The
first allocation in each range returns CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN or
CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN.

If cpuhp_remove_state() is invoked for one of these states, then there is
no protection against the allocation mechanism. So the removal, which
should clear the callbacks and the name, gets a new state assigned and
clears that one.

As a consequence the state which should be cleared stays initialized. A
consecutive CPU hotplug operation dereferences the state callbacks and
accesses either freed or reused memory, resulting in crashes.

Add a protection against this by checking the name argument for NULL. If
it's NULL it's a removal. If not, it's an allocation.

dea1d0f5f1 smp/hotplug: Replace BUG_ON and react useful
The move of the unpark functions to the control thread moved the BUG_ON()
there as well. While it made some sense in the idle thread of the upcoming
CPU, it's bogus to crash the control thread on the already online CPU,
especially as the function has a return value and the callsite is prepared
to handle an error return.

Replace it with a WARN_ON_ONCE() and return a proper error code.

9cd4f1a4e7 smp/hotplug: Move unparking of percpu threads to the control CPU
Vikram reported the following backtrace:

   BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/7/0/0x00000002
   CPU: 7 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/7 Not tainted 4.9.32-perf+ #680
   schedule

   __kthread_bind
   __kthread_unpark
   kthread_unpark
   cpuhp_online_idle
   cpu_startup_entry
   secondary_start_kernel

He analyzed correctly that a parked cpu hotplug thread of an offlined CPU
was still on the runqueue when the CPU came back online and tried to unpark
it. This causes the thread which invoked kthread_unpark() to call
wait_task_inactive() and subsequently schedule() with preemption disabled.
His proposed workaround was to "make sure" that a parked thread has
scheduled out when the CPU goes offline, so the situation cannot happen.

But that's still wrong because the root cause is not the fact that the
percpu thread is still on the runqueue and neither that preemption is
disabled, which could be simply solved by enabling preemption before
calling kthread_unpark().

The real issue is that the calling thread is the idle task of the upcoming
CPU, which is not supposed to call anything which might sleep.  The moron,
who wrote that code, missed completely that kthread_unpark() might end up
in schedule().

The solution is simpler than expected. The thread which controls the
hotplug operation is waiting for the CPU to call complete() on the hotplug
state completion. So the idle task of the upcoming CPU can set its state to
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE and invoke complete(). This in turn wakes the control
task on a different CPU, which then can safely do the unpark and kick the
now unparked hotplug thread of the upcoming CPU to complete the bringup to
the final target state.

                <------------    complete();
    unpark(AP->stopper);
    unpark(AP->hotplugthread);

9a9594efe5 Merge branch 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.

  The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
  recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
  as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.

  The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
  establishes full lockdep coverage that way.

  The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
  the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
  these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
  probability was low enough to hide them away."

993647a293 cpu/hotplug: Constify attribute_group structures
attribute_groups are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with attribute_groups provided by <linux/sysfs.h> work with const
attribute_group.

So mark the non-const structs as const:

File size before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  12582	  15361	     20	  27963	   6d3b	kernel/cpu.o

File size After adding 'const':
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  12710	  15265	     20	  27995	   6d5b	kernel/cpu.o
