This commit introduces a RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST Kconfig option that
prevents rcuo kthreads from running at real-time priority, even in
kernels built with RCU_BOOST. This capability is important to devices
needing low-latency (as in a few milliseconds) response from expedited
RCU grace periods, but which are not running a classic real-time workload.
On such devices, permitting the rcuo kthreads to run at real-time priority
results in unacceptable latencies imposed on the application tasks,
which run as SCHED_OTHER.
See for example the following trace output:
<snip>
<...>-60 [006] d..1 2979.028717: rcu_batch_start: rcu_preempt CBs=34619 bl=270
<snip>
If that rcuop kthread were permitted to run at real-time SCHED_FIFO
priority, it would monopolize its CPU for hundreds of milliseconds
while invoking those 34619 RCU callback functions, which would cause an
unacceptably long latency spike for many application stacks on Android
platforms.
However, some existing real-time workloads require that callback
invocation run at SCHED_FIFO priority, for example, those running on
systems with heavy SCHED_OTHER background loads. (It is the real-time
system's administrator's responsibility to make sure that important
real-time tasks run at a higher priority than do RCU's kthreads.)
Therefore, this new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST Kconfig option defaults to
"y" on kernels built with PREEMPT_RT and defaults to "n" otherwise.
The effect is to preserve current behavior for real-time systems, but for
other systems to allow expedited RCU grace periods to run with real-time
priority while continuing to invoke RCU callbacks as SCHED_OTHER.
As you would expect, this RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST Kconfig option has no
effect except on CPUs with offloaded RCU callbacks.

Callbacks are invoked in RCU kthreads when calbacks are offloaded
(rcu_nocbs boot parameter) or when RCU's softirq handler has been
offloaded to rcuc kthreads (use_softirq==0). The current code allows
for the rcu_nocbs case but not the use_softirq case. This commit adds
support for the use_softirq case.

Systems built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y but booted without either
the rcu_nocbs= or rcu_nohz_full= kernel-boot parameters will not have
callback offloading on any of the CPUs, nor can any of the CPUs be
switched to enable callback offloading at runtime. Although this is
intentional, it would be nice to have a way to offload all the CPUs
without having to make random bootloaders specify either the rcu_nocbs=
or the rcu_nohz_full= kernel-boot parameters.
This commit therefore provides a new CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL
Kconfig option that switches the default so as to offload callback
processing on all of the CPUs. This default can still be overridden
using the rcu_nocbs= and rcu_nohz_full= kernel-boot parameters.

In case of failure to spawn either rcuog or rcuo[p] kthreads for a given
rdp, rcu_nocb_rdp_deoffload() needs to be called with the hotplug
lock and the barrier_mutex held. However cpus write lock is already held
while calling rcutree_prepare_cpu(). It's not possible to call
rcu_nocb_rdp_deoffload() from there with just locking the barrier_mutex
or this would result in a locking inversion against
rcu_nocb_cpu_deoffload() which holds both locks in the reverse order.
Simply solve this with inverting the locking order inside
rcu_nocb_cpu_[de]offload(). This will be a pre-requisite to toggle NOCB
states toward cpusets anyway.

NOCB rdp's are part of a group whose list is iterated by the
corresponding rdp leader.
This list is RCU traversed because an rdp can be either added or
deleted concurrently. Upon addition, a new iteration to the list after
a synchronization point (a pair of LOCK/UNLOCK ->nocb_gp_lock) is forced
to make sure:
1) we didn't miss a new element added in the middle of an iteration
2) we didn't ignore a whole subset of the list due to an element being
quickly deleted and then re-added.
3) we prevent from probably other surprises...
Although this layout is expected to be safe, it doesn't help anybody
to sleep well.
Simplify instead the nocb state toggling with moving the list
modification from the nocb (de-)offloading workqueue to the rcuog
kthreads instead.
Whenever the rdp leader is expected to (re-)set the SEGCBLIST_KTHREAD_GP
flag of a target rdp, the latter is queued so that the leader handles
the flag flip along with adding or deleting the target rdp to the list
to iterate. This way the list modification and iteration happen from the
same kthread and those operations can't race altogether.
As a bonus, the flags for each rdp don't need to be checked locklessly
before each iteration, which is one less opportunity to produce
nightmares.

When a CPU is slow to provide a quiescent state for a given grace
period, RCU takes steps to encourage that CPU to get with the
quiescent-state program in a more timely fashion. These steps
include these flags in the rcu_data structure:
1. ->rcu_urgent_qs, which causes the scheduling-clock interrupt to
request an otherwise pointless context switch from the scheduler.
2. ->rcu_need_heavy_qs, which causes both cond_resched() and RCU's
context-switch hook to do an immediate momentary quiscent state.
3. ->rcu_need_heavy_qs, which causes the scheduler-clock tick to
be enabled even on nohz_full CPUs with only one runnable task.
These flags are of course cleared once the corresponding CPU has passed
through a quiescent state. Unless that quiescent state is the CPU
going offline, which means that when the CPU comes back online, it will
needlessly consume additional CPU time and incur additional latency,
which constitutes a minor but very real performance bug.
This commit therefore adds the call to rcu_disable_urgency_upon_qs()
that clears these flags to the CPU-hotplug offlining code path.

The purpose of commit 282d8998e9 ("srcu: Prevent expedited GPs
and blocking readers from consuming CPU") was to prevent a long
series of never-blocking expedited SRCU grace periods from blocking
kernel-live-patching (KLP) progress. Although it was successful, it also
resulted in excessive boot times on certain embedded workloads running
under qemu with the "-bios QEMU_EFI.fd" command line. Here "excessive"
means increasing the boot time up into the three-to-four minute range.
This increase in boot time was due to the more than 6000 back-to-back
invocations of synchronize_rcu_expedited() within the KVM host OS, which
in turn resulted from qemu's emulation of a long series of MMIO accesses.
Commit 640a7d37c3f4 ("srcu: Block less aggressively for expedited grace
periods") did not significantly help this particular use case.
Zhangfei Gao and Shameerali Kolothum Thodi did experiments varying the
value of SRCU_MAX_NODELAY_PHASE with HZ=250 and with various values
of non-sleeping per phase counts on a system with preemption enabled,
and observed the following boot times:
+──────────────────────────+────────────────+
| SRCU_MAX_NODELAY_PHASE | Boot time (s) |
+──────────────────────────+────────────────+
| 100 | 30.053 |
| 150 | 25.151 |
| 200 | 20.704 |
| 250 | 15.748 |
| 500 | 11.401 |
| 1000 | 11.443 |
| 10000 | 11.258 |
| 1000000 | 11.154 |
+──────────────────────────+────────────────+
Analysis on the experiment results show additional improvements with
CPU-bound delays approaching one jiffy in duration. This improvement was
also seen when number of per-phase iterations were scaled to one jiffy.
This commit therefore scales per-grace-period phase number of non-sleeping
polls so that non-sleeping polls extend for about one jiffy. In addition,
the delay-calculation call to srcu_get_delay() in srcu_gp_end() is
replaced with a simple check for an expedited grace period. This change
schedules callback invocation immediately after expedited grace periods
complete, which results in greatly improved boot times. Testing done
by Marc and Zhangfei confirms that this change recovers most of the
performance degradation in boottime; for CONFIG_HZ_250 configuration,
specifically, boot times improve from 3m50s to 41s on Marc's setup;
and from 2m40s to ~9.7s on Zhangfei's setup.
In addition to the changes to default per phase delays, this
change adds 3 new kernel parameters - srcutree.srcu_max_nodelay,
srcutree.srcu_max_nodelay_phase, and srcutree.srcu_retry_check_delay.
This allows users to configure the srcu grace period scanning delays in
order to more quickly react to additional use cases.

Commit 282d8998e9 ("srcu: Prevent expedited GPs and blocking readers
from consuming CPU") fixed a problem where a long-running expedited SRCU
grace period could block kernel live patching. It did so by giving up
on expediting once a given SRCU expedited grace period grew too old.
Unfortunately, this added excessive delays to boots of virtual embedded
systems specifying "-bios QEMU_EFI.fd" to qemu. This commit therefore
makes the transition away from expediting less aggressive, increasing
the per-grace-period phase number of non-sleeping polls of readers from
one to three and increasing the required grace-period age from one jiffy
(actually from zero to one jiffies) to two jiffies (actually from one
to two jiffies).

The intent of the CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD Konfig option is to
cause normal grace periods to complete quickly in order to better catch
errors resulting from improperly leaking pointers from RCU read-side
critical sections. However, kernels built with this option enabled still
wait for some hundreds of milliseconds before boosting RCU readers that
have been preempted within their current critical section. The value
of this delay is set by the CONFIG_RCU_BOOST_DELAY Kconfig option,
which defaults to 500 milliseconds.
This commit therefore causes kernels build with strict grace periods
to ignore CONFIG_RCU_BOOST_DELAY. This causes rcu_initiate_boost()
to start boosting immediately after all CPUs on a given leaf rcu_node
structure have passed through their quiescent states.

Currently, the rcu_node structure's ->cbovlmask field is set in call_rcu()
when a given CPU is suffering from callback overload. But if that CPU
goes offline, the outgoing CPU's callbacks is migrated to the running
CPU, which is likely to overload the running CPU. However, that CPU's
bit in its leaf rcu_node structure's ->cbovlmask field remains zero.
Initially, this is OK because the outgoing CPU's bit remains set.
However, that bit will be cleared at the next end of a grace period,
at which time it is quite possible that the running CPU will still
be overloaded. If the running CPU invokes call_rcu(), then overload
will be checked for and the bit will be set. Except that there is no
guarantee that the running CPU will invoke call_rcu(), in which case the
next grace period will fail to take the running CPU's overload condition
into account. Plus, because the bit is not set, the end of the grace
period won't check for overload on this CPU.
This commit therefore adds a call to check_cb_ovld_locked() in
rcutree_migrate_callbacks() to set the running CPU's ->cbovlmask bit
appropriately.

The force-quiesce-state loop function rcu_gp_fqs_loop() checks for
callback overloading and does an immediate initial scan for idle CPUs
if so. However, subsequent rescans will be carried out at as leisurely a
rate as they always are, as specified by the rcutree.jiffies_till_next_fqs
module parameter. It might be tempting to just continue immediately
rescanning, but this turns the RCU grace-period kthread into a CPU hog.
It might also be tempting to reduce the time between rescans to a single
jiffy, but this can be problematic on larger systems.
This commit therefore divides the normal time between rescans by three,
rounding up. Thus a small system running at HZ=1000 that is suffering
from callback overload will wait only one jiffy instead of the normal
three between rescans.

Currently shrinkers are anonymous objects. For debugging purposes they
can be identified by count/scan function names, but it's not always
useful: e.g. for superblock's shrinkers it's nice to have at least an
idea of to which superblock the shrinker belongs.
This commit adds names to shrinkers. register_shrinker() and
prealloc_shrinker() functions are extended to take a format and arguments
to master a name.
In some cases it's not possible to determine a good name at the time when
a shrinker is allocated. For such cases shrinker_debugfs_rename() is
provided.
The expected format is:
<subsystem>-<shrinker_type>[:<instance>]-<id>
For some shrinkers an instance can be encoded as (MAJOR:MINOR) pair.
After this change the shrinker debugfs directory looks like:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker/

This reverts commit 2bb2b7b57f.
The testing of 5.19 release candidates revealed missing synchronization
between early and regular console functionality.
It would be possible to start the console kthreads later as a workaround.
But it is clear that console lock serialized console drivers between
each other. It opens a big area of possible problems that were not
considered by people involved in the development and review.
printk() is crucial for debugging kernel issues and console output is
very important part of it. The number of consoles is huge and a proper
review would take some time. As a result it need to be reverted for 5.19.

The RCU priority boosting can fail in two situations:
1) If (nr_cpus= > maxcpus=), which means if the total number of CPUs
is higher than those brought online at boot, then torture_onoff() may
later bring up CPUs that weren't online on boot. Now since rcutorture
initialization only boosts the ksoftirqds of the CPUs that have been
set online on boot, the CPUs later set online by torture_onoff won't
benefit from the boost, making RCU priority boosting fail.
2) The ksoftirqd kthreads are boosted after the creation of
rcu_torture_boost() kthreads, which opens a window large enough for these
rcu_torture_boost() kthreads to wait (despite running at FIFO priority)
for ksoftirqds that are still running at SCHED_NORMAL priority.
The issues can trigger for example with:
./kvm.sh --configs TREE01 --kconfig "CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y"

Dumping a big ftrace buffer could lead to a RCU stall. So there is the
ftrace buffer and the stall information which needs to be printed. When
there is additionally a WARN_ON() which describes the reason for the ftrace
buffer dump and the WARN_ON() is executed _after_ ftrace buffer dump, the
information get lost in the middle of the RCU stall information.
Therefore print WARN_ON() message before dumping the ftrace buffer in

failure by repeating the test once every second until timeout using
schedule_timeout_uninterruptible().
Since rcu_tasks_verify_selft_tests() is called from do_initcalls()
as a late_initcall, this has the undesirable side effect of delaying
other late_initcall's queued after it by a second or more. Fix this by
instead using delayed_work to repeat the verification check.

software configuration. Some configurations boot up fast enough that the
RCU-Tasks verification process gets false-positive failures. This commit
therefore allows up to 30 seconds for the grace periods to complete, with
this value adjustable downwards using the rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_timeout

The rcu_tasks_trace_pregp_step() function invokes cpus_read_lock() to
disable CPU hotplug, and a later call to the rcu_tasks_trace_postscan()
function invokes cpus_read_unlock() to re-enable it. This was absolutely
necessary in the past in order to protect the intervening scan of the full
tasks list, but there is no longer such a scan. This commit therefore
improves readability by moving the cpus_read_unlock() call to the end
of the rcu_tasks_trace_pregp_step() function. This commit is a pure
code-motion commit without any (intended) change in functionality.

Currently, the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period kthread IPIs each online CPU
using smp_call_function_single() in order to track any tasks currently in
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections during which the corresponding
task has neither blocked nor been preempted. These IPIs are annoying
and are also not strictly necessary because any task that blocks or is
preempted within its current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section
will be tracked on one of the per-CPU rcu_tasks_percpu structure's
->rtp_blkd_tasks list. So the only time that this is a problem is if
one of the CPUs runs through a long-duration RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section without a context switch.
Note that the task_call_func() function cannot help here because there is
no safe way to identify the target task. Of course, the task_call_func()
function will be very useful later, when processing the list of tasks,
but it needs to know the task.
This commit therefore creates a cpu_curr_snapshot() function that returns
a pointer the task_struct structure of some task that happened to be
running on the specified CPU more or less during the time that the
cpu_curr_snapshot() function was executing. If there was no context
switch during this time, this function will return a pointer to the
task_struct structure of the task that was running throughout. If there
was a context switch, then the outgoing task will be taken care of by
RCU's context-switch hook, and the incoming task was either already taken
care during some previous context switch, or it is not currently within an
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section. And in this latter case, the
grace period already started, so there is no need to wait on this task.
This new cpu_curr_snapshot() function is invoked on each CPU early in
the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period processing, and the resulting tasks
are queued for later quiescent-state inspection.

this time complexity is O(C+B), where C is the number of CPUs and B
is the number of tasks that have blocked (or been preempted) at least
once during their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections.
Of course, if all tasks have blocked (or been preempted) at least once
during their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections, this is
still O(T), but current expectations are that RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section will be short and that there will normally not be large
numbers of tasks blocked within such a critical section.
Dave Marchevsky kindly measured the effects of this commit on the RCU
Tasks Trace grace-period latency and the rcu_tasks_trace_kthread task's
CPU consumption per RCU Tasks Trace grace period over the course of a
fixed test, all in milliseconds:
Before After
GP latency 22.3 ms stddev > 0.1 17.0 ms stddev < 0.1
GP CPU 2.3 ms stddev 0.3 1.1 ms stddev 0.2
This was on a system with 15,000 tasks, so it is reasonable to expect
much larger savings on the systems on which this issue was first noted,
given that they sport well in excess of 100,000 tasks. CPU consumption
was measured using profiling techniques.

This commit applies the "noinstr" tag to the rcu_idle_enter() and
rcu_idle_exit() functions, which are invoked from portions of the idle
loop that cannot be instrumented. These tags require reworking the
rcu_eqs_enter() and rcu_eqs_exit() functions that these two functions
invoke in order to cause them to use normal assertions rather than
lockdep. In addition, within rcu_idle_exit(), the raw versions of
local_irq_save() and local_irq_restore() are used, again to avoid issues
with lockdep in uninstrumented code.
This patch is based in part on an earlier patch by Jiri Olsa, discussions
with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic Weisbecker, earlier changes by Thomas
Gleixner, and off-list discussions with Yonghong Song.

If the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter is disabled, then it is
possible that a RCU CPU stall is due to the rcuc kthreads being starved of
CPU time. There is currently no easy way to infer this from the RCU CPU
stall warning output. This commit therefore adds a string of the form "
rcuc=%ld jiffies(starved)" to a given CPU's output if the corresponding
rcuc kthread has been starved for more than two seconds.

Now that RCU scans both running tasks and tasks that have blocked within
their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section, there is no
need for it to scan the idle tasks. After all, an idle loop should not
be remain within an RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section across
exit from idle, and from a BPF viewpoint, functions invoked from the
idle loop should not sleep. So only running idle tasks can be within
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections.
This commit therefore removes the scan of the idle tasks from the
rcu_tasks_trace_postscan() function.

A running task might be within an RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical
section for any length of time, but will not be placed on any of the
per-CPU rcu_tasks_percpu structure's ->rtp_blkd_tasks lists. Therefore
any RCU Tasks Trace grace-period processing that does not scan the full
task list must interact with the running tasks.
This commit therefore causes the rcu_tasks_trace_pregp_step() function
to IPI each CPU in order to place the corresponding task on the holdouts
list and to record whether or not it was in an RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section. Yes, it is possible to avoid adding it to that list
if it is not a reader, but that would prevent the system from remembering
that this task was in a quiescent state. Which is why the running tasks
are unconditionally added to the holdout list.

Now that tasks are not removed from the list until they have responded to
any needed request for a quiescent state, it is no longer necessary to
wait for the trc_n_readers_need_end counter to go to zero. This commit
therefore removes that waiting code.
It is therefore also no longer necessary for rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() to
do the final decrement of this counter, so that code is also removed.
This in turn means that trc_n_readers_need_end counter itself can
be removed, as can the rcu_tasks_trace_iw irq_work structure and the
rcu_read_unlock_iw() function.

This commit gets rid of the task_struct structure's ->trc_reader_checked

atomically loads, stores, and checks the resulting combination of the

significant simplification of the rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() function
as well as elimination of the trc_n_readers_need_end counter in later
commits. These changes will in turn simplify later elimination of the
RCU Tasks Trace scan of the task list, which will make RCU Tasks Trace

It is currently up to the caller to handle stale return values from
get_state_synchronize_rcu(). If poll_state_synchronize_rcu() returned
true once, a grace period has elapsed, regardless of the fact that counter
wrap might cause some future poll_state_synchronize_rcu() invocation to
return false. For example, the caller might store a separate flag that
indicates whether some previous call to poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
determined that the relevant grace period had already ended.
This approach works, but it requires extra storage and is easy to get
wrong. This commit therefore introduces a get_completed_synchronize_rcu()
that returns a cookie that causes poll_state_synchronize_rcu() to always
return true. This already-completed cookie can be stored in place of the
cookie that previously caused poll_state_synchronize_rcu() to return true.
It can also be used to flag a given structure as not having been exposed
to readers, and thus not requiring a grace period to elapse.
This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods.

Currently, poll_state_synchronize_rcu() uses rcu_seq_done() to check
whether the specified grace period has completed. However, rcu_seq_done()
does a simple comparison that reserves have of the sequence-number space
for uncompleted grace periods. This has the unfortunate side-effect
of not handling sequence-number wrap gracefully. Of course, one can
argue that if someone has already waited for half of the full range of
grace periods, they can wait for the other half, but why wait at all in
this case?
This commit therefore creates a rcu_seq_done_exact() that counts as
uncompleted only the two grace periods during which the sequence number
might have been handed out, while still being uncompleted. This way,
if sequence-number wrap happens to hit that range, at most two additional
grace periods need be waited for.
This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods.

For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and
all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups
going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request,
just cleanups.
I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a
pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes
have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while.
The last change was merged May 4th.
Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed.
To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request
I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which
moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Offload writing printk() messages on consoles to per-console
kthreads.
It prevents soft-lockups when an extensive amount of messages is
printed. It was observed, for example, during boot of large systems
with a lot of peripherals like disks or network interfaces.
It prevents live-lockups that were observed, for example, when
messages about allocation failures were reported and a CPU handled
consoles instead of reclaiming the memory. It was hard to solve even
with rate limiting because it would need to take into account the
amount of messages and the speed of all consoles.
It is a must to have for real time. Otherwise, any printk() might
break latency guarantees.
The per-console kthreads allow to handle each console on its own
speed. Slow consoles do not longer slow down faster ones. And
printk() does not longer unpredictably slows down various code paths.
There are situations when the kthreads are either not available or
not reliable, for example, early boot, suspend, or panic. In these
situations, printk() uses the legacy mode and tries to handle
consoles immediately.
- Add documentation for the printk index.

Currently both expedited and regular grace period stall warnings use
a single timeout value that with units of seconds. However, recent
Android use cases problem require a sub-100-millisecond expedited RCU CPU
stall warning. Given that expedited RCU grace periods normally complete
in far less than a single millisecond, especially for small systems,
this is not unreasonable.
Therefore introduce the CONFIG_RCU_EXP_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT kernel
configuration that defaults to 20 msec on Android and remains the same
as that of the non-expedited stall warnings otherwise. It also can be
changed in run-time via: /sys/.../parameters/rcu_exp_cpu_stall_timeout.

Commit 9c7ef4c30f12 ("srcu: Make Tree SRCU able to operate without
snp_node array") initializes the local variable sdp differently depending
on the srcu's state in srcu_gp_start(). Either way, this initialization
overwrites the value used when sdp is defined.
This commit therefore drops this pointless definition-time initialization.

If an SRCU reader blocks while a synchronize_srcu_expedited() waits for
that same reader, then that grace period will spawn an endless series of
workqueue handlers, consuming a full CPU. This quickly gets pointless
because consuming more CPU isn't going to make that reader get done
faster, especially if it is blocked waiting for an external event.
This commit therefore spawns at most one pair of back-to-back workqueue
handlers per expedited grace period phase, instead inserting increasing
delays as that grace period phase grows older, but capped at 10 jiffies.
In any case, if there have been at least 100 back-to-back workqueue
handlers within a single jiffy, regardless of grace period or grace-period
phase, then a one-jiffy delay is inserted.

Once kthread printing is available, console printing will no longer
occur in the context of the printk caller. However, there are some
special contexts where it is desirable for the printk caller to
directly print out kernel messages. Using pr_flush() to wait for
threaded printers is only possible if the caller is in a sleepable
context and the kthreads are active. That is not always the case.
Introduce printk_prefer_direct_enter() and printk_prefer_direct_exit()
functions to explicitly (and globally) activate/deactivate preferred
direct console printing. The term "direct console printing" refers to
printing to all enabled consoles from the context of the printk
caller. The term "prefer" is used because this type of printing is
only best effort. If the console is currently locked or other
printers are already actively printing, the printk caller will need
to rely on the other contexts to handle the printing.
This preferred direct printing is how all printing has been handled
until now (unless it was explicitly deferred).
When kthread printing is introduced, there may be some unanticipated
problems due to kthreads being unable to flush important messages.
In order to minimize such risks, preferred direct printing is
activated for the primary important messages when the system
experiences general types of major errors. These are:
- emergency reboot/shutdown
- cpu and rcu stalls
- hard and soft lockups
- hung tasks
- warn
- sysrq
Note that since kthread printing does not yet exist, no behavior
changes result from this commit. This is only implementing the
counter and marking the various places where preferred direct
printing is active.

Currently, any kernel built with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y also gets
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=y, which is not helpful to people trying to build
preemptible kernels of minimal size.
Because CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=y is needed only in kernels doing tracing of
one form or another, this commit moves from TASKS_RCU deciding when it
should be enabled to the tracing Kconfig options explicitly selecting it.
This allows building preemptible kernels without TASKS_RCU, if desired.
This commit also updates the SRCU-N and TREE09 rcutorture scenarios
in order to avoid Kconfig errors that would otherwise result from
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU being selected without its CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT dependency

When booting kernels built with both CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y
and CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y, the rcu_read_unlock_special() function's
invocation of irq_work_queue_on() the init_irq_work() causes the
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() function to work execute in SCHED_FIFO
irq_work kthreads. Because rcu_read_unlock_special() is invoked on each
rcu_read_unlock() in such kernels, the amount of work just keeps piling
up, resulting in a boot-time hang.
This commit therefore avoids this hang by using IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD()

The rcu_sync_enter() function is used by updaters to force RCU readers
(e.g. percpu-rwsem) to use their slow paths during an update. This is
accomplished by setting the ->gp_state of the rcu_sync structure to
GP_ENTER. In the case of percpu-rwsem, the readers' slow path waits on
a semaphore instead of just incrementing a reader count. Each updater
invokes the rcu_sync_exit() function to signal to readers that they
may again take their fastpaths. The rcu_sync_exit() function sets the
->gp_state of the rcu_sync structure to GP_EXIT, and if all goes well,
after a grace period the ->gp_state reverts back to GP_IDLE.
Unfortunately, the rcu_sync_enter() function currently has a comment
incorrectly stating that rcu_sync_exit() (by an updater) will re-enable
reader "slowpaths". This patch changes the comment to state that this
function re-enables reader fastpaths.

An early check on synchronize_rcu[_expedited]() tries to determine if
the current CPU is in UP mode on an SMP no-preempt kernel, in which case
there is no need to start a grace period since the current assumed
quiescent state is all we need.
However the preemption mode doesn't take into account the boot selected
preemption mode under CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=y, missing a possible
early return if the running flavour is "none" or "voluntary".
Use the shiny new preempt mode accessors to fix this. However,
avoid invoking them during early boot because doing so triggers a
WARN_ON_ONCE().

Suppose we have a kernel built with both CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y
and CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. Suppose further that an RCU reader from which RCU
core needs a quiescent state ends in rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore().
This function will then invoke rcu_report_qs_rdp() in order to immediately
report that quiescent state. Unfortunately, it will not have cleared
that reader's CPU's rcu_data structure's ->cpu_no_qs.b.norm field.
As a result, rcu_report_qs_rdp() will take an early exit because it
will believe that this CPU has not yet encountered a quiescent state,
and there will be no reporting of the current quiescent state.
This commit therefore causes rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore() to
clear the ->cpu_no_qs.b.norm field before invoking rcu_report_qs_rdp().

The rcutorture module has an rcu_torture_writer task that repeatedly
performs writes, synchronizations, and deletes. There is a corner-case
check in rcu_torture_writer() wherein if nsynctypes is 0, a warning is
issued and the task waits to be stopped via a call to
torture_kthread_stopping() rather than performing any work.
There should be a return statement following this call to
torture_kthread_stopping(), as the intention with issuing the call to
torture_kthread_stopping() in the first place is to avoid the
rcu_torture_writer task from performing any work. Some of the work may even
be dangerous to perform, such as potentially causing a #DE due to
nsynctypes being used in a modulo operator when querying for sync updates
to issue.
This patch adds the missing return call. As a bonus, it also fixes a
checkpatch warning that was emitted due to the WARN_ONCE() call using the
name of the function rather than __func__.

The rcutorture module is used to run torture tests that validate RCU.
rcutorture takes a variety of module parameters that configure the
functionality of the test. Amongst these parameters are the types of
synchronization mechanisms that the rcu_torture_writer and
rcu_torture_fakewriter tasks may use, and the torture_type of the run which
determines what read and sync operations are used by the various writer and
reader tasks that run throughout the test.
When the module is configured to only use sync types for which the
specified torture_type does not implement the necessary operations, we can
end up in a state where nsynctypes is 0. This is not an erroneous state,
but it currently crashes the kernel with a #DE due to nsynctypes being used
with a modulo operator in rcu_torture_fakewriter().
Here is an example of such a #DE:
$ insmod ./rcutorture.ko gp_cond=1 gp_cond_exp=0 gp_exp=0 gp_poll_exp=0
gp_normal=0 gp_poll=0 gp_poll_exp=0 verbose=9999 torture_type=trivial

Tree RCU supports grace-period delays using the rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay,
rcutree.gp_init_delay, and rcutree.gp_preinit_delay kernel boot
parameters. These delays are strictly for debugging purposes, and have
proven quite effective at exposing bugs involving race with CPU-hotplug
operations. However, these delays can result in false positives when
used in conjunction with callback flooding, for example, those generated
by the rcutorture.fwd_progress kernel boot parameter.
This commit therefore suppresses grace-period delays while callback
flooding is in progress.

If the cpu_possible_mask is sparse (for example, if bits are set only for
CPUs 0, 4, 8, ...), then rcu_tasks_invoke_cbs() will access per-CPU data
for a CPU not in cpu_possible_mask. It makes these accesses while doing
a workqueue-based binary search for non-empty callback lists. Although
this search must pass through CPUs not represented in cpu_possible_mask,
it has no need to check the callback list for such CPUs.
This commit therefore changes the rcu_tasks_invoke_cbs() function's
binary search so as to only check callback lists for CPUs present in
cpu_possible_mask.

If the rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim kernel boot parameter is set to
something greater than 1 and less than nr_cpu_ids, the code attempts to
use a subset of the CPU's RCU Tasks callback lists. This works, but only
if the cpu_possible_mask is contiguous. If there are "holes" in this
mask, the callback-enqueue code might attempt to access a non-existent
per-CPU ->rtcpu variable for a non-existent CPU. For example, if only
CPUs 0, 4, 8, 12, 16 and so on are in cpu_possible_mask, specifying
rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim=4 would cause the code to attempt to
use callback queues for non-existent CPUs 1, 2, and 3. Because such
systems have existed in the past and might still exist, the code needs
to gracefully handle this situation.
This commit therefore checks to see whether the desired CPU is present
in cpu_possible_mask, and, if not, searches for the next CPU. This means
that the systems administrator of a system with a sparse cpu_possible_mask
will need to account for this sparsity when specifying the value of
the rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim kernel boot parameter. For example,
setting this parameter to the value 4 will use only CPUs 0 and 4, which
CPU 4 getting three times the callback load of CPU 0.
This commit assumes that bit (nr_cpu_ids - 1) is always set in
cpu_possible_mask.

The use of hrtimers for RCU-tasks grace-period delays works well in
general, but can result in excessive grace-period delays for some

The synchronous RCU-tasks grace-period-wait primitives invoke
schedule_timeout_idle() to give readers a chance to exit their
read-side critical sections. Unfortunately, this fails during early
boot on PREEMPT_RT because PREEMPT_RT relies solely on ksoftirqd to run
timer handlers. Because ksoftirqd cannot operate until its kthreads
are spawned, there is a brief period of time following scheduler
initialization where PREEMPT_RT cannot run the timer handlers that
schedule_timeout_idle() relies on, resulting in a hang.
To avoid this boot-time hang, this commit replaces schedule_timeout_idle()
with schedule_hrtimeout(), so that the timer expires in hardirq context.
This is ensures that the timer fires even on PREEMPT_RT throughout the
irqs-enabled portions of boot as well as during runtime.
The timer is set to expire between fract and fract + HZ / 2 jiffies in
order to align with any other timers that might expire during that time,
thus reducing the number of wakeups.
Note that RCU-tasks grace periods are infrequent, so the use of hrtimer
should be fine. In contrast, in common-case code, user of hrtimer
could result in performance issues.

The main Tasks RCU quiescent state is voluntary context switch. However,
userspace execution is also a valid quiescent state, and is a valuable one
for userspace applications that spin repeatedly executing light-weight
non-sleeping system calls. Currently, such an application can delay a
Tasks RCU grace period for many tens of seconds.
This commit therefore enlists the aid of the scheduler-clock interrupt to
provide a Tasks RCU quiescent state when it interrupted a task executing
in userspace.

The waitqueue used by rcu_tasks_kthread() has always only one waiter.
With a guaranteed only one waiter, this can be replaced with rcuwait
which is smaller and simpler. With rcuwait based wake counterpart, the
irqwork function (call_rcu_tasks_iw_wakeup()) can be invoked hardirq
context because it is only a wake up and no sleeping locks are involved
(unlike the wait_queue_head).
As a side effect, this is also one piece of the puzzle to pass the RCU
selftest at early boot on PREEMPT_RT.
Replace wait_queue_head with rcuwait and let the irqwork run in hardirq
context on PREEMPT_RT.

RCU-tasks stall-warning messages are printed after the grace period is ten
minutes old. Unfortunately, most of us will have rebooted the system in
response to an apparently-hung command long before the ten minutes is up,
and will thus see what looks to be a silent hang.
This commit therefore adds pr_info() messages that are printed earlier.
These should avoid being classified as errors, but should give impatient
users a hint. These are controlled by new rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_info
and rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_info_mult kernel-boot parameters. The former
defines the initial delay in jiffies (defaulting to 10 seconds) and the
latter defines the multiplier (defaulting to 3). Thus, by default, the
first message will appear 10 seconds into the RCU-tasks grace period,
the second 40 seconds in, and the third 160 seconds in. There would be
a fourth at 640 seconds in, but the stall warning message appears 600
seconds in, and once a stall warning is printed for a given grace period,
no further informational messages are printed.

This commit therefore fixes this issue by applying a single-CPU
optimization to the RCU Tasks Rude grace-period process. The key point
here is that the purpose of this RCU flavor is to force a schedule on
each online CPU since some past event. But the rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp()
function runs in the context of the RCU Tasks Rude's grace-period kthread,
so there must already have been a context switch on the current CPU since
the call to either synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() or call_rcu_tasks_rude().
So if there is only a single CPU online, RCU Tasks Rude's grace-period
kthread does not need to anything at all.
It turns out that the rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() function's call to
schedule_on_each_cpu() causes problems during early boot. During that
time, there is only one online CPU, namely the boot CPU. Therefore,
applying this single-CPU optimization fixes early-boot instances of
this problem.

This commit instruments the acquisitions of the srcu_struct structure's
->lock, enabling the initiation of a transition from SRCU_SIZE_SMALL
to SRCU_SIZE_BIG when sufficient contention is experienced. The
instrumentation counts the number of trylock failures within the confines
of a single jiffy. If that number exceeds the value specified by the
srcutree.small_contention_lim kernel boot parameter (which defaults to
100), and if the value specified by the srcutree.convert_to_big kernel
boot parameter has the 0x10 bit set (defaults to 0), then a transition
will be automatically initiated.
By default, there will never be any transitions, so that none of the
srcu_struct structures ever gains an srcu_node array.
The useful values for srcutree.convert_to_big are:
0x00: Never convert.
0x01: Always convert at init_srcu_struct() time.
0x02: Convert when rcutorture prints its first round of statistics.
0x03: Decide conversion approach at boot given system size.
0x10: Convert if contention is encountered.
0x12: Convert if contention is encountered or when rcutorture prints
its first round of statistics, whichever comes first.
The value 0x11 acts the same as 0x01 because the conversion happens
before there is any chance of contention.

Which it does.
Except that it also invokes free_percpu() on the ->sda pointer

For configurations where snp node tree is not initialized at
init time (added in subsequent commits), srcu_funnel_gp_start()
and srcu_funnel_exp_start() can potential traverse and observe
the snp nodes' transient (uninitialized) states. This can potentially
happen, when init_srcu_struct_nodes() initialization of sdp->mynode
races with srcu_funnel_gp_start() and srcu_funnel_exp_start()
Consider the case below where srcu_funnel_gp_start() observes
sdp->mynode to be not NULL and uses an uninitialized sdp->grpmask
P1 P2
init_srcu_struct_nodes() void srcu_funnel_gp_start(...)
{
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
...
sdp->mynode = &snp_first[...];
for (snp = sdp->mynode;...) struct srcu_node *snp_leaf =
smp_load_acquire(&sdp->mynode)
... if (snp_leaf) {
for (snp = snp_leaf; ...)
...
if (snp == snp_leaf)
snp->srcu_data_have_cbs[idx] |=
sdp->grpmask;
sdp->grpmask =
1 << (cpu - sdp->mynode->grplo);
}
}
Similarly, init_srcu_struct_nodes() and srcu_funnel_exp_start() can
race, where srcu_funnel_exp_start() could observe state of snp lock
before spin_lock_init().
P1 P2
init_srcu_struct_nodes() void srcu_funnel_exp_start(...)
{
srcu_for_each_node_breadth_first(ssp, snp) { for (; ...) {
spin_lock_...(snp, )
spin_lock_init(&ACCESS_PRIVATE(snp, lock));
...
}
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
...
sdp->mynode = &snp_first[...];
To avoid these issues, ensure that snp node tree initialization is
complete i.e. after SRCU_SIZE_WAIT_BARRIER srcu_size_state is reached,
before traversing the tree. Given that srcu_funnel_gp_start() and
srcu_funnel_exp_start() are called within SRCU read side critical
sections, this check is safe, in the sense that all callbacks are
enqueued on CPU0 srcu_cblist until SRCU_SIZE_WAIT_CALL is entered,
and these read side critical sections (containing srcu_funnel_gp_start()
and srcu_funnel_exp_start()) need to complete, before SRCU_SIZE_WAIT_CALL
is reached.

Currently, tree SRCU relies on the srcu_node structures being initialized
at the same time that the srcu_struct itself is initialized, and thus
use the initial grace-period sequence number as the initial value for
the srcu_node structure's ->srcu_have_cbs[] and ->srcu_gp_seq_needed_exp
fields. Although this has a high probability of also working when the
srcu_node array is allocated and initialized at some random later time,
it would be better to avoid leaving such things to chance.
This commit therefore initializes these fields with 0x2, which is a
recognizable invalid value. It then adds the required checks for this
invalid value in order to avoid confusion on long-running kernels
(especially those on 32-bit systems) that allocate and initialize

Because srcu_barrier() must be aware of transition before call_srcu(), the

This commit makes Tree SRCU able to operate without an snp_node
array, that is, when the srcu_data structures' ->mynode pointers
are NULL. This can result in high contention on the srcu_struct
structure's ->lock, but only when there are lots of call_srcu(),
synchronize_srcu(), and synchronize_srcu_expedited() calls.
Note that when there is no snp_node array, all SRCU callbacks use
CPU 0's callback queue. This is optimal in the common case of low
update-side load because it removes the need to search each CPU
for the single callback that made the grace period happen.

Currently, the srcu_funnel_gp_start() walks its local variable snp up the
tree and reloads sdp->mynode whenever it is necessary to check whether
it is still at the leaf srcu_node level. This works, but is a bit more
obtuse than absolutely necessary. In addition, upcoming commits will
dynamically size srcu_struct structures, in which case sdp->mynode will
no longer necessarily be a constant, and this commit helps prepare for
that dynamic sizing.

Currently, cleanup_srcu_struct() checks for a grace period in progress,
but it does not check for a grace period that has not yet started but
which might start at any time. Such a situation could result in a
use-after-free bug, so this commit adds a check for a grace period that
is needed but not yet started to cleanup_srcu_struct().

In some places, RCU code calls cpumask_weight() to check if any bit of a

because cpumask_empty() stops traversing the cpumask as soon as it finds

Recording the work creation stack trace for KASAN reports in
call_rcu() is expensive, due to unwinding the stack, but also
due to acquiring depot_lock inside stackdepot (which may be contended).
Because calling kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() does not require
interrupts to already be disabled, this may unnecessarily extend
the time with interrupts disabled.
Therefore, move calling kasan_record_aux_stack() before the section
with interrupts disabled.

Currently, call_rcu_tasks_generic() sets ->percpu_enqueue_shift to
order_base_2(nr_cpu_ids) upon encountering sufficient contention.
This does not shift to use of non-CPU-0 callback queues as intended, but
rather continues using only CPU 0's queue. Although this does provide
some decrease in contention due to spreading work over multiple locks,
it is not the dramatic decrease that was intended.
This commit therefore makes call_rcu_tasks_generic() set
->percpu_enqueue_shift to 0.

The ilog2() function can be used to generate a shift count, but it will
generate the same count for a power of two as for one greater than a power
of two. This results in shift counts that are larger than necessary for
systems with a power-of-two number of CPUs because the CPUs are numbered
from zero, so that the maximum CPU number is one less than that power
of two.
This commit therefore substitutes order_base_2(), which appears to have
been designed for exactly this use case.

This commit removes the cpus_read_lock() and cpus_read_unlock() calls
from rcu_barrier(), thus allowing CPUs to come and go during the course
of rcu_barrier() execution. Posting of the ->barrier_head callbacks does
synchronize with portions of RCU's CPU-hotplug notifiers, but these locks
are held for short time periods on both sides. Thus, full CPU-hotplug
operations could both start and finish during the execution of a given
rcu_barrier() invocation.
Additional synchronization is provided by a global ->barrier_lock.
Since the ->barrier_lock is only used during rcu_barrier() execution and
during onlining/offlining a CPU, the contention for this lock should
be low. It might be tempting to make use of a per-CPU lock just on
general principles, but straightforward attempts to do this have the
problems shown below.
Initial state: 3 CPUs present, CPU 0 and CPU1 do not have
any callback and CPU2 has callbacks.
1. CPU0 calls rcu_barrier().
2. CPU1 starts offlining for CPU2. CPU1 calls
rcutree_migrate_callbacks(). rcu_barrier_entrain() is called
from rcutree_migrate_callbacks(), with CPU2's rdp->barrier_lock.
It does not entrain ->barrier_head for CPU2, as rcu_barrier()
on CPU0 hasn't started the barrier sequence (by calling
rcu_seq_start(&rcu_state.barrier_sequence)) yet.
3. CPU0 starts new barrier sequence. It iterates over
CPU0 and CPU1, after acquiring their per-cpu ->barrier_lock
and finds 0 segcblist length. It updates ->barrier_seq_snap
for CPU0 and CPU1 and continues loop iteration to CPU2.
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&rdp->barrier_lock, flags);
if (!rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(&rdp->cblist)) {
WRITE_ONCE(rdp->barrier_seq_snap, gseq);
raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&rdp->barrier_lock, flags);
rcu_barrier_trace(TPS("NQ"), cpu, rcu_state.barrier_sequence);
continue;
}
4. rcutree_migrate_callbacks() completes execution on CPU1.
Segcblist len for CPU2 becomes 0.
5. The loop iteration on CPU0, checks rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(&rdp->cblist)
for CPU2 and completes the loop iteration after setting
->barrier_seq_snap.
6. As there isn't any ->barrier_head callback entrained; at
this point, rcu_barrier() in CPU0 returns.
7. The callbacks, which migrated from CPU2 to CPU1, execute.
Straightforward per-CPU locking is also subject to the following race
condition noted by Boqun Feng:
1. CPU0 calls rcu_barrier(), starting a new barrier sequence by invoking
rcu_seq_start() and init_completion(), but does not yet initialize
rcu_state.barrier_cpu_count.
2. CPU1 starts offlining for CPU2, calling rcutree_migrate_callbacks(),
which in turn calls rcu_barrier_entrain() holding CPU2's.
rdp->barrier_lock. It then entrains ->barrier_head for CPU2
and atomically increments rcu_state.barrier_cpu_count, which is
unfortunately not yet initialized to the value 2.
3. The just-entrained RCU callback is invoked. It atomically
decrements rcu_state.barrier_cpu_count and sees that it is
now zero. This callback therefore invokes complete().
4. CPU0 continues executing rcu_barrier(), but is not blocked
by its call to wait_for_completion(). This results in rcu_barrier()
returning before all pre-existing callbacks have been invoked,
which is a bug.
Therefore, synchronization is provided by rcu_state.barrier_lock,
which is also held across the initialization sequence, especially the
rcu_seq_start() and the atomic_set() that sets rcu_state.barrier_cpu_count
to the value 2. In addition, this lock is held when entraining the
rcu_barrier() callback, when deciding whether or not a CPU has callbacks
that rcu_barrier() must wait on, when setting the ->qsmaskinitnext for
incoming CPUs, and when migrating callbacks from a CPU that is going
offline.

This commit reworks rcu_barrier() and callback-migration logic to
permit allowing rcu_barrier() to run concurrently with CPU-hotplug
operations. The key trick is for callback migration to check to see if
an rcu_barrier() is in flight, and, if so, enqueue the ->barrier_head
callback on its behalf.
This commit adds synchronization with RCU's CPU-hotplug notifiers. Taken
together, this will permit a later commit to remove the cpus_read_lock()
and cpus_read_unlock() calls from rcu_barrier().

If we allow architectures to bring APs online in parallel, then we end
up requiring rcu_cpu_starting() to be reentrant. But currently, the
manipulation of rnp->ofl_seq is not thread-safe.
However, rnp->ofl_seq is also fairly much pointless anyway since both
rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() hold rcu_state.ofl_lock for
fairly much the whole time that rnp->ofl_seq is set to an odd number
to indicate that an operation is in progress.
So drop rnp->ofl_seq completely, and use only rcu_state.ofl_lock.
This has a couple of minor complexities: lockdep will complain when we
take rcu_state.ofl_lock, and currently accepts the 'excuse' of having
an odd value in rnp->ofl_seq. So switch it to an arch_spinlock_t to
avoid that false positive complaint. Since we're killing rnp->ofl_seq
of course that 'excuse' has to be changed too, so make it check for
arch_spin_is_locked(rcu_state.ofl_lock).
There's no arch_spin_lock_irqsave() so we have to manually save and
restore local interrupts around the locking.
At Paul's request based on Neeraj's analysis, make rcu_gp_init not just
wait but *exclude* any CPU online/offline activity, which was fairly
much true already by virtue of it holding rcu_state.ofl_lock.

load, this can result in this function being preempted before the
quiescent state is reported, which can in turn prevent the expedited grace
period from completing. Tim Murray reports that the resulting expedited
grace periods can take hundreds of milliseconds and even more than one
second, when they should normally complete in less than a millisecond.
This was fine given that there were no particular response-time
constraints for synchronize_rcu_expedited(), as it was designed
for throughput rather than latency. However, some users now need
sub-100-millisecond response-time constratints.
This patch therefore follows Neeraj's suggestion (seconded by Tim and
by Uladzislau Rezki) of simply reversing the two operations.

When CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y, the rcutree.kthread_prio command-line
parameter signals initialization code to boost the priority of rcuc
callbacks to the designated value. With the additional
CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y configuration and an additional rcu_nocbs
command-line parameter, the callbacks on the listed cores are
offloaded to new rcuop kthreads that are not pinned to the cores whose
post-grace-period work is performed. While the rcuop kthreads perform
the same function as the rcuc kthreads they offload, the kthread_prio
parameter only boosts the priority of the rcuc kthreads. Fix this
inconsistency by elevating rcuop kthreads to the same priority as the rcuc
kthreads.

The ->percpu_enqueue_shift field is used to map from the running CPU
number to the index of the corresponding callback list. This mapping
can change at runtime in response to varying callback load, resulting
in varying levels of contention on the callback-list locks.
Unfortunately, the initial value of this field is correct only if the
system happens to have a power-of-two number of CPUs, otherwise the
callbacks from the high-numbered CPUs can be placed into the callback list
indexed by 1 (rather than 0), and those index-1 callbacks will be ignored.
This can result in soft lockups and hangs.
This commit therefore corrects this mapping, adding one to this shift
count as needed for systems having odd numbers of CPUs.

without specifying any CPUs. This allows systems administrators to use
"rcu_nocbs" to specify that none of the CPUs are to be offloaded at boot
time, but than any of them may be offloaded at runtime via cpusets.
In contrast, if the "rcu_nocbs" or "nohz_full" kernel parameters are not

none of them can be offloaded at runtime, either.

By default, when lock contention is encountered, the RCU Tasks flavors
of RCU switch to using per-CPU queueing. However, if the callback
flood ends, per-CPU queueing continues to be used, which introduces
significant additional overhead, especially for callback invocation,
which fans out a series of workqueue handlers.
This commit therefore switches back to single-queue operation if at the
beginning of a grace period there are very few callbacks. The definition
of "very few" is set by the rcupdate.rcu_task_collapse_lim module
parameter, which defaults to 10. This switch happens in two phases,
with the first phase causing future callbacks to be enqueued on CPU 0's
queue, but with all queues continuing to be checked for grace periods
and callback invocation. The second phase checks to see if an RCU grace
period has elapsed and if all remaining RCU-Tasks callbacks are queued
on CPU 0. If so, only CPU 0 is checked for future grace periods and
callback operation.
Of course, the return of contention anywhere during this process will
result in returning to per-CPU callback queueing.

Decreasing the number of callback queues is a bit tricky because it
is necessary to handle callbacks that were queued before the number of
queues decreased, but which were not ready to invoke until afterwards.
This commit takes a first step in this direction by maintaining a separate
->percpu_dequeue_lim to control callback dequeueing, in addition to the
existing ->percpu_enqueue_lim which now controls only enqueueing.

The rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter allows system
administrators to tune the number of callback queues used by the RCU
Tasks flavors. However if callback storms are infrequent, it would
be better to operate with a single queue on a given system unless and
until that system actually needed more queues. Systems not needing
more queues can then avoid the overhead of checking the extra queues
and especially avoid the overhead of fanning workqueue handlers out to
all CPUs to invoke callbacks.
This commit therefore switches to using all the CPUs' callback queues if
call_rcu_tasks_generic() encounters too much lock contention. The amount
of lock contention to tolerate defaults to 100 contended lock acquisitions
per jiffy, and can be adjusted using the new rcupdate.rcu_task_contend_lim
module parameter.
Such switching is undertaken only if the rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim
module parameter is negative, which is its default value (-1).
This allows savvy systems administrators to set the number of queues
to some known good value and to not have to worry about the kernel doing
any second guessing.

rcu_core() tries to ensure that its self-invocation in case of callbacks
overload only happen in softirq/rcuc mode. Indeed it doesn't make sense
to trigger local RCU core from nocb_cb kthread since it can execute
on a CPU different from the target rdp. Also in case of overload, the
nocb_cb kthread simply iterates a new loop of callbacks processing.
However the "offloaded" check that aims at preventing misplaced
rcu_core() invocations is wrong. First of all that state is volatile
and second: softirq/rcuc can execute while the target rdp is offloaded.
As a result rcu_core() can be invoked on the wrong CPU while in the
process of (de-)offloading.
Fix that with moving the rcu_core() self-invocation to rcu_core() itself,
irrespective of the rdp offloaded state.

local_bh_enable() before cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() takes care about
them via a call to do_softirq().
Therefore, make sure the time limit only applies to softirq mode.

The callbacks processing time limit makes sure we are not exceeding a
given amount of time executing the queue.
However its "continue" clause bypasses the cond_resched() call on
rcuc and NOCB kthreads, delaying it until we reach the limit, which can
be very long...
Make sure the scheduler has a higher priority than the time limit.

The current condition to limit the number of callbacks executed in a
row checks the offloaded state of the rdp. Not only is it volatile
but it is also misleading: the rcu_core() may well be executing
callbacks concurrently with NOCB kthreads, and the offloaded state
would then be verified on both cases. As a result the limit would
spuriously not apply anymore on softirq while in the middle of
(de-)offloading process.
Fix and clarify the condition with those constraints in mind:
_ If callbacks are processed either by rcuc or NOCB kthread, the call
to cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() is enough to take care of the overload.
_ If instead callbacks are processed by softirqs:
* If need_resched(), exit the callbacks processing
* Otherwise if CPU is idle we can continue
* Otherwise exit because a softirq shouldn't interrupt a task for too
long nor deprive other pending softirq vectors of the CPU.

It's not entirely obvious why rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check is updated before
processing the queue only on offloaded rdp. There can be different
effect to that, either in favour of triggering the force quiescent state
path or not. For example:
1) If the number of callbacks has decreased since the last
rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check update (because we recently called
rcu_do_batch() and we executed below qhimark callbacks) and the number
of processed callbacks on a subsequent do_batch() arranges for
exceeding qhimark on non-offloaded but not on offloaded setup, then we
may spare a later run to the force quiescent state
slow path on __call_rcu_nocb_wake(), as compared to the non-offloaded
counterpart scenario.
Here is such an offloaded scenario instance:
qhimark = 1000
rdp->last_qlen_last_fqs_check = 3000
rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) = 2000
rcu_do_batch() {
if (offloaded)
rdp->last_qlen_fqs_check = rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) // 2000
// run 1000 callback
rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) = 1000
// Not updating rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check
if (count < rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check - qhimark)
rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check = count;
}
call_rcu() * 1001 {
__call_rcu_nocb_wake() {
// not taking the fqs slowpath:
// rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) == 2001
// rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check == 2000
// qhimark == 1000
if (len > rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check + qhimark)
...
}
In the case of a non-offloaded scenario, rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check
would be 1000 and the fqs slowpath would have executed.
2) If the number of callbacks has increased since the last
rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check update (because we recently queued below
qhimark callbacks) and the number of callbacks executed in rcu_do_batch()
doesn't exceed qhimark for either offloaded or non-offloaded setup,
then it's possible that the offloaded scenario later run the force
quiescent state slow path on __call_rcu_nocb_wake() while the
non-offloaded doesn't.
qhimark = 1000
rdp->last_qlen_last_fqs_check = 3000
rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) = 2000
rcu_do_batch() {
if (offloaded)
rdp->last_qlen_last_fqs_check = rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) // 2000
// run 100 callbacks
// concurrent queued 100
rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) = 2000
// Not updating rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check
if (count < rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check - qhimark)
rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check = count;
}
call_rcu() * 1001 {
__call_rcu_nocb_wake() {
// Taking the fqs slowpath:
// rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rdp) == 3001
// rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check == 2000
// qhimark == 1000
if (len > rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check + qhimark)
...
}
In the case of a non-offloaded scenario, rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check
would be 3000 and the fqs slowpath would have executed.
The reason for updating rdp->qlen_last_fqs_check when invoking callbacks
for offloaded CPUs is that there is usually no point in waking up either
the rcuog or rcuoc kthreads while in this state. After all, both threads
are prohibited from indefinite sleeps.
The exception is when some huge number of callbacks are enqueued while
rcu_do_batch() is in the midst of invoking, in which case interrupting
the rcuog kthread's timed sleep might get more callbacks set up for the
next grace period.

When callbacks are offloaded, the NOCB kthreads handle the callbacks
progression on behalf of rcu_core().
However during the (de-)offloading process, the kthread may not be
entirely up to the task. As a result some callbacks grace period
sequence number may remain stale for a while because rcu_core() won't
take care of them either.
Fix this with forcing callbacks acceleration from rcu_core() as long
as the offloading process isn't complete.

While reporting a quiescent state for a given CPU, rcu_core() takes
advantage of the freshly loaded grace period sequence number and the
locked rnp to accelerate the callbacks whose sequence number have been
assigned a stale value.
This action is only necessary when the rdp isn't offloaded, otherwise
the NOCB kthreads already take care of the callbacks progression.
However the check for the offloaded state is volatile because it is
performed outside the IRQs disabled section. It's possible for the
offloading process to preempt rcu_core() at that point on PREEMPT_RT.
This is dangerous because rcu_core() may end up accelerating callbacks
concurrently with NOCB kthreads without appropriate locking.
Fix this with moving the offloaded check inside the rnp locking section.

On PREEMPT_RT, if rcu_core() is preempted by the de-offloading process,
some work, such as callbacks acceleration and invocation, may be left
unattended due to the volatile checks on the offloaded state.
In the worst case this work is postponed until the next rcu_pending()
check that can take a jiffy to reach, which can be a problem in case
of callbacks flooding.
Solve that with invoking rcu_core() early in the de-offloading process.
This way any work dismissed by an ongoing rcu_core() call fooled by
a preempting deoffloading process will be caught up by a nearby future
recall to rcu_core(), this time fully aware of the de-offloading state.

Currently SEGCBLIST_SOFTIRQ_ONLY is a bit of an exception among the
segcblist flags because it is an exclusive state that doesn't mix up
with the other flags. Remove it in favour of:
_ A flag specifying that rcu_core() needs to perform callbacks execution
and acceleration
and
_ A flag specifying we want the nocb lock to be held in any needed
circumstances
This clarifies the code and is more flexible: It allows to have a state
where rcu_core() runs with locking while offloading hasn't started yet.
This is a necessary step to prepare for triggering rcu_core() at the
very beginning of the de-offloading process so that rcu_core() won't
dismiss work while being preempted by the de-offloading process, at
least not without a pending subsequent rcu_core() that will quickly
catch up.

rcu_nocb_lock_irqsave() can be preempted between the call to
rcu_segcblist_is_offloaded() and the actual locking. This matters now
that rcu_core() is preemptible on PREEMPT_RT and the (de-)offloading
process can interrupt the softirq or the rcuc kthread.
As a result we may locklessly call into code that requires nocb locking.
In practice this is a problem while we accelerate callbacks on rcu_core().
Simply disabling interrupts before (instead of after) checking the NOCB
offload state fixes the issue.

This commit rechecks that a grace period is still in progress while
holding the rcu_node structure's lock. The grace period cannot end while
the current CPU's rcu_node structure's ->lock is held, thus avoiding
false positives from the WARN_ON_ONCE().
As Daniel Vacek noted, it is not necessary for the rcu_node structure

Expedited RCU grace periods invoke sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus(), which
takes two passes over the leaf rcu_node structure's CPUs. The first
pass gathers up the current CPU and CPUs that are in dynticks idle mode.
The workqueue will report a quiescent state on their behalf later.
The second pass sends IPIs to the rest of the CPUs, but excludes the
current CPU, incorrectly assuming it has been included in the first
pass's list of CPUs.
Unfortunately the current CPU may have changed between the first and
second pass, due to the fact that the various rcu_node structures'
->lock fields have been dropped, thus momentarily enabling preemption.
This means that if the second pass's CPU was not on the first pass's
list, it will be ignored completely. There will be no IPI sent to
it, and there will be no reporting of quiescent states on its behalf.
Unfortunately, the expedited grace period will nevertheless be waiting
for that CPU to report a quiescent state, but with that CPU having no
reason to believe that such a report is needed.
The result will be an expedited grace period stall.
Fix this by no longer excluding the current CPU from consideration during
the second pass.

In non-preemptible kernels, an unfortunately timed expedited grace period
can result in the rcu_exp_handler() IPI handler setting the rcu_data
structure's cpu_no_qs.b.exp field just as the target CPU enters idle.
There are situations in which this field will not be checked until after
that CPU exits idle. The resulting grace-period latency does not qualify
as "expedited".
This commit therefore checks this field upon non-preemptible idle entry in
the rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() function. It also qualifies the rcu_core()
preempt_count() check with IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT) to prevent
false-positive quiescent states from count-free kernels.

If an RCU expedited grace period starts just when a CPU is in the process
of going offline, so that the outgoing CPU has completed its pass through
stop-machine but has not yet completed its final dive into the idle loop,
RCU will attempt to enable that CPU's scheduling-clock tick via a call
to tick_dep_set_cpu(). For this to happen, that CPU has to have been
online when the expedited grace period completed its CPU-selection phase.
This is pointless: The outgoing CPU has interrupts disabled, so it cannot
take a scheduling-clock tick anyway. In addition, the tick_dep_set_cpu()
function's eventual call to irq_work_queue_on() will splat as follows:

complains when a pi lock is held across that srcu_read_unlock().
Although this is a lockdep false positive (there is no other CPU to
complete the deadlock cycle), lockdep is what it is at the moment.
This commit therefore prevents rcutorture from holding pi lock across
a Tiny srcu_read_unlock().

Currently, nested readers occur only when a timer handler interrupts a
reader. This is rare, and is thus insufficient testing of the transition
between nesting levels. This commit therefore causes rcutorture nested
readers to be the rule rather than the exception.

RCUTORTURE_RDR_MASK is currently not the bit indicated by
RCUTORTURE_RDR_SHIFT, but is instead all the bits less significant than
that one. This is an accident waiting to happen, so this commit makes
RCUTORTURE_RDR_MASK be that one bit and adjusts uses accordingly.

Currently, the check_all_holdout_tasks_trace() function removes all tasks
marked with ->trc_reader_checked from the holdout list, including those
with IPIs pending. This means that the IPI handler might arrive at
a task that has already been removed from the list, which is at best
an accident waiting to happen.
This commit therefore avoids removing tasks with IPIs pending from
the holdout list. This in turn means that the "if" condition in the
for_each_online_cpu() loop in rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() should always
evaluate to false, so a WARN_ON_ONCE() is added to check that.

Tiny SRCU readers can appear at task level, but also in interrupt and
softirq handlers. Because Tiny SRCU is selected only in kernels built
with CONFIG_SMP=n and CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n, it is not possible for a grace
period to start while there is a non-task-level SRCU reader executing.
This means that it does not make sense for __srcu_read_unlock() to awaken
the Tiny SRCU grace period, because that can only happen when the grace
period is waiting for one value of ->srcu_idx and __srcu_read_unlock()
is ending the last reader for some other value of ->srcu_idx. After all,
any such wakeup will be redundant.
Worse yet, in some cases, such wakeups generate lockdep splats:

This is a false positive because there is only one CPU, and both locks
are raw (non-preemptible) spinlocks. However, it is worthwhile getting
rid of the redundant wakeup, which has the side effect of breaking
the theoretical deadlock cycle. This commit therefore eliminates the
redundant wakeups.

The default kasan_record_aux_stack() calls stack_depot_save() with GFP_NOWAIT,
which in turn can then call alloc_pages(GFP_NOWAIT, ...). In general, however,
it is not even possible to use either GFP_ATOMIC nor GFP_NOWAIT in certain
non-preemptive contexts/RT kernel including raw_spin_locks (see gfp.h and ab00db216c).
Fix it by instructing stackdepot to not expand stack storage via alloc_pages()
in case it runs out by using kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc().

All of the uses of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=y that I have seen involve
systems with RCU callbacks offloaded. In this situation, all that this
Kconfig option does is slow down idle entry/exit with an additional
allways-taken early exit. If this is the only use case, then this
Kconfig option nothing but an attractive nuisance that needs to go away.
This commit therefore removes the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ Kconfig option.

Since commit aa40c138cc ("rcu: Report QS for outermost PREEMPT=n
rcu_read_unlock() for strict GPs") the function rcu_read_unlock_strict()
is invoked by the inlined rcu_read_unlock() function. However,
rcu_read_unlock_strict() is an empty function in production kernels,
which are built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=n.
There is a mention of rcu_read_unlock_strict() in the BPF verifier,
but this is in a deny-list, meaning that BPF does not care whether
rcu_read_unlock_strict() is ever called.
This commit therefore provides a slight performance improvement
by hoisting the check of CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD from
rcu_read_unlock_strict() into rcu_read_unlock(), thus avoiding the
pointless call to an empty function.
