b239f7daf5 percpu: set PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE to PAGE_SIZE
Previously, block size was flexible based on the constraint that the
GCD(PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE) > 1. However, this carried the
overhead that keeping a floating number of populated free pages required
scanning over the free regions of a chunk.

Setting the block size to be fixed at PAGE_SIZE lets us know when an
empty page becomes used as we will break a full contig_hint of a block.
This means we no longer have to scan the whole chunk upon breaking a
contig_hint which empty page management piggybacked off. A later patch
takes advantage of this to optimize the allocation path by only scanning
forward using the scan_hint introduced later too.

7e8a6304d5 /proc/meminfo: add percpu populated pages count
Currently, percpu memory only exposes allocation and utilization
information via debugfs.  This more or less is only really useful for
understanding the fragmentation and allocation information at a per-chunk
level with a few global counters.  This is also gated behind a config.
BPF and cgroup, for example, have seen an increase in use causing
increased use of percpu memory.  Let's make it easier for someone to
identify how much memory is being used.

This patch adds the "Percpu" stat to meminfo to more easily look up how
much percpu memory is in use.  This number includes the cost for all
allocated backing pages and not just insight at the per a unit, per chunk
level.  Metadata is excluded.  I think excluding metadata is fair because
the backing memory scales with the numbere of cpus and can quickly
outweigh the metadata.  It also makes this calculation light.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

b185cd0dc6 percpu: update free path to take advantage of contig hints
The bitmap allocator must keep metadata consistent. The easiest way is
to scan after every allocation for each affected block and the entire
chunk. This is rather expensive.

The free path can take advantage of current contig hints to prevent
scanning within the start and end block.  If a scan is needed, it can
be done by scanning backwards from the start and forwards from the end
to identify the entire free area this can be combined with. The blocks
can then be updated by some basic checks rather than complete block
scans.

A chunk scan happens when the freed area makes a page free, a block
free, or spans across blocks. This is necessary as the contig hint at
this point could span across blocks. The check uses the minimum of page
size and the block size to allow for variable sized blocks. There is a
tradeoff here with not updating after every free. It is possible a
contig hint in one block can be merged with the contig hint in the next
block. This means the contig hint can be off by up to a page. However,
if the chunk's contig hint is contained in one block, the contig hint
will be accurate.

ca460b3c96 percpu: introduce bitmap metadata blocks
This patch introduces the bitmap metadata blocks and adds the skeleton
of the code that will be used to maintain these blocks.  Each chunk's
bitmap is made up of full metadata blocks. These blocks maintain basic
metadata to help prevent scanning unnecssarily to update hints. Full
scanning methods are used for the skeleton and will be replaced in the
coming patches. A number of helper functions are added as well to do
conversion of pages to blocks and manage offsets. Comments will be
updated as the final version of each function is added.

There exists a relationship between PAGE_SIZE, PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE,
the region size, and unit_size. Every chunk's region (including offsets)
is page aligned at the beginning to preserve alignment. The end is
aligned to LCM(PAGE_SIZE, PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE) to ensure that the end
can fit with the populated page map which is by page and every metadata
block is fully accounted for. The unit_size is already page aligned, but
must also be aligned with PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE to ensure full metadata
blocks.

40064aeca3 percpu: replace area map allocator with bitmap
The percpu memory allocator is experiencing scalability issues when
allocating and freeing large numbers of counters as in BPF.
Additionally, there is a corner case where iteration is triggered over
all chunks if the contig_hint is the right size, but wrong alignment.

This patch replaces the area map allocator with a basic bitmap allocator
implementation. Each subsequent patch will introduce new features and
replace full scanning functions with faster non-scanning options when
possible.

Implementation:
This patchset removes the area map allocator in favor of a bitmap
allocator backed by metadata blocks. The primary goal is to provide
consistency in performance and memory footprint with a focus on small
allocations (< 64 bytes). The bitmap removes the heavy memmove from the
freeing critical path and provides a consistent memory footprint. The
metadata blocks provide a bound on the amount of scanning required by
maintaining a set of hints.

In an effort to make freeing fast, the metadata is updated on the free
path if the new free area makes a page free, a block free, or spans
across blocks. This causes the chunk's contig hint to potentially be
smaller than what it could allocate by up to the smaller of a page or a
block. If the chunk's contig hint is contained within a block, a check
occurs and the hint is kept accurate. Metadata is always kept accurate
on allocation, so there will not be a situation where a chunk has a
later contig hint than available.

Evaluation:
I have primarily done testing against a simple workload of allocation of
1 million objects (2^20) of varying size. Deallocation was done by in
order, alternating, and in reverse. These numbers were collected after
rebasing ontop of a80099a152. I present the worst-case numbers here:

  Area Map Allocator:

        Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
        ----------------------------------------------
              4B    |        310      |     4770
             16B    |        557      |     1325
             64B    |        436      |      273
            256B    |        776      |      131
           1024B    |       3280      |      122

  Bitmap Allocator:

        Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
        ----------------------------------------------
              4B    |        490      |       70
             16B    |        515      |       75
             64B    |        610      |       80
            256B    |        950      |      100
           1024B    |       3520      |      200

This data demonstrates the inability for the area map allocator to
handle less than ideal situations. In the best case of reverse
deallocation, the area map allocator was able to perform within range
of the bitmap allocator. In the worst case situation, freeing took
nearly 5 seconds for 1 million 4-byte objects. The bitmap allocator
dramatically improves the consistency of the free path. The small
allocations performed nearly identical regardless of the freeing
pattern.

While it does add to the allocation latency, the allocation scenario
here is optimal for the area map allocator. The area map allocator runs
into trouble when it is allocating in chunks where the latter half is
full. It is difficult to replicate this, so I present a variant where
the pages are second half filled. Freeing was done sequentially. Below
are the numbers for this scenario:

  Area Map Allocator:

        Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
        ----------------------------------------------
              4B    |       4118      |     4892
             16B    |       1651      |     1163
             64B    |        598      |      285
            256B    |        771      |      158
           1024B    |       3034      |      160

  Bitmap Allocator:

        Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
        ----------------------------------------------
              4B    |        481      |       67
             16B    |        506      |       69
             64B    |        636      |       75
            256B    |        892      |       90
           1024B    |       3262      |      147

The data shows a parabolic curve of performance for the area map
allocator. This is due to the memmove operation being the dominant cost
with the lower object sizes as more objects are packed in a chunk and at
higher object sizes, the traversal of the chunk slots is the dominating
cost. The bitmap allocator suffers this problem as well. The above data
shows the inability to scale for the allocation path with the area map
allocator and that the bitmap allocator demonstrates consistent
performance in general.

The second problem of additional scanning can result in the area map
allocator completing in 52 minutes when trying to allocate 1 million
4-byte objects with 8-byte alignment. The same workload takes
approximately 16 seconds to complete for the bitmap allocator.

V2:
Fixed a bug in pcpu_alloc_first_chunk end_offset was setting the bitmap
using bytes instead of bits.

Added a comment to pcpu_cnt_pop_pages to explain bitmap_weight.

d2f3c38494 percpu: increase minimum percpu allocation size and align first regions
This patch increases the minimum allocation size of percpu memory to
4-bytes. This change will help minimize the metadata overhead
associated with the bitmap allocator. The assumption is that most
allocations will be of objects or structs greater than 2 bytes with
integers or longs being used rather than shorts.

The first chunk regions are now aligned with the minimum allocation
size. The reserved region is expected to be set as a multiple of the
minimum allocation size. The static region is aligned up and the delta
is removed from the dynamic size. This works because the dynamic size is
increased to be page aligned. If the static size is not minimum
allocation size aligned, then there must be a gap that is added to the
dynamic size. The dynamic size will never be smaller than the set value.

383776fa75 locking/lockdep: Handle statically initialized PER_CPU locks properly
If a PER_CPU struct which contains a spin_lock is statically initialized
via:

DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct foo, bla) = {
	.lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(bla.lock)
};

then lockdep assigns a seperate key to each lock because the logic for
assigning a key to statically initialized locks is to use the address as
the key. With per CPU locks the address is obvioulsy different on each CPU.

That's wrong, because all locks should have the same key.

To solve this the following modifications are required:

 1) Extend the is_kernel/module_percpu_addr() functions to hand back the
    canonical address of the per CPU address, i.e. the per CPU address
    minus the per CPU offset.

 2) Check the lock address with these functions and if the per CPU check
    matches use the returned canonical address as the lock key, so all per
    CPU locks have the same key.

 3) Move the static_obj(key) check into look_up_lock_class() so this check
    can be avoided for statically initialized per CPU locks.  That's
    required because the canonical address fails the static_obj(key) check
    for obvious reasons.

42a0bb3f71 printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMI
printk() takes some locks and could not be used a safe way in NMI
context.

The chance of a deadlock is real especially when printing stacks from
all CPUs.  This particular problem has been addressed on x86 by the
commit a9edc88093 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all
CPUs").

The patchset brings two big advantages.  First, it makes the NMI
backtraces safe on all architectures for free.  Second, it makes all NMI
messages almost safe on all architectures (the temporary buffer is
limited.  We still should keep the number of messages in NMI context at
minimum).

Note that there already are several messages printed in NMI context:
WARN_ON(in_nmi()), BUG_ON(in_nmi()), anything being printed out from MCE
handlers.  These are not easy to avoid.

This patch reuses most of the code and makes it generic.  It is useful
for all messages and architectures that support NMI.

The alternative printk_func is set when entering and is reseted when
leaving NMI context.  It queues IRQ work to copy the messages into the
main ring buffer in a safe context.

__printk_nmi_flush() copies all available messages and reset the buffer.
Then we could use a simple cmpxchg operations to get synchronized with
writers.  There is also used a spinlock to get synchronized with other
flushers.

We do not longer use seq_buf because it depends on external lock.  It
would be hard to make all supported operations safe for a lockless use.
It would be confusing and error prone to make only some operations safe.

The code is put into separate printk/nmi.c as suggested by Steven
Rostedt.  It needs a per-CPU buffer and is compiled only on
architectures that call nmi_enter().  This is achieved by the new
HAVE_NMI Kconfig flag.

The are MN10300 and Xtensa architectures.  We need to clean up NMI
handling there first.  Let's do it separately.

The patch is heavily based on the draft from Peter Zijlstra, see

As users of printk may also use the printk_func variable, it needs to
be defined even if CONFIG_PRINTK is not.

Also add a printk.h include in percpu.h just to be safe.

afdc34a3d3 printk: Add per_cpu printk func to allow printk to be diverted
Being able to divert printk to call another function besides the normal
logging is useful for such things like NMI handling. If some functions
are to be called from NMI that does printk() it is possible to lock up
the box if the nmi handler triggers when another printk is happening.

One example of this use is to perform a stack trace on all CPUs via NMI.
But if the NMI is to do the printk() it can cause the system to lock up.
By allowing the printk to be diverted to another function that can safely
record the printk output and then print it when it in a safe context
then NMIs will be safe to call these functions like show_regs().

1a4d76076c percpu: implement asynchronous chunk population
The percpu allocator now supports atomic allocations by only
allocating from already populated areas but the mechanism to ensure
that there's adequate amount of populated areas was missing.

This patch expands pcpu_balance_work so that in addition to freeing
excess free chunks it also populates chunks to maintain an adequate
level of populated areas.  pcpu_alloc() schedules pcpu_balance_work if
the amount of free populated areas is too low or after an atomic
allocation failure.

* PERPCU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE is increased by two pages to account for
  PCPU_EMPTY_POP_PAGES_LOW.

* pcpu_async_enabled is added to gate both async jobs -
  chunk->map_extend_work and pcpu_balance_work - so that we don't end
  up scheduling them while the needed subsystems aren't up yet.

5835d96e9c percpu: implement [__]alloc_percpu_gfp()
Now that pcpu_alloc_area() can allocate only from populated areas,
it's easy to add atomic allocation support to [__]alloc_percpu().
Update pcpu_alloc() so that it accepts @gfp and skips all the blocking
operations and allocates only from the populated areas if @gfp doesn't
contain GFP_KERNEL.  New interface functions [__]alloc_percpu_gfp()
are added.

While this means that atomic allocations are possible, this isn't
complete yet as there's no mechanism to ensure that certain amount of
populated areas is kept available and atomic allocations may keep
failing under certain conditions.

We're in the process of moving all percpu accessors and operations to

This patch moves {raw|this}_cpu_*() definitions from

moved mostly verbatim; however, raw_cpu_*() are placed above
this_cpu_*() which is more conventional as the raw operations may be

dcba433368 percpu: only allow sized arch overrides for {raw|this}_cpu_*() ops
Currently, percpu allows two separate methods for overriding
{raw|this}_cpu_*() ops - for a given operation, an arch can provide
whole replacement or sized sub operations to override specific parts
of it.  e.g. arch either can provide this_cpu_add() or
this_cpu_add_4() to override only the 4 byte operation.

While quite flexible on a glance, the dual-overriding scheme
complicates the code path for no actual gain.  It compilcates the
already complex operation definitions and if an arch wants to override
all sizes, it can easily provide all variants anyway.  In fact, no
arch is actually making use of whole operation override.

Another oddity is that __this_cpu_*() operations are defined in the
same way as raw_cpu_*() but ignores full overrides of the raw_cpu_*()
and doesn't allow full operation override, so if an arch provides
whole overrides for raw_cpu_*() operations __this_cpu_*() ends up
using the generic implementations.

More importantly, it takes away the layering between arch-specific and
generic parts making it impossible for the generic part to implement
arch-independent features on top of arch-specific overrides.

This patch removes the support for whole operation overrides.  As no
arch is using it, this doesn't cause any actual difference.

b3ca1c10d7 percpu: add raw_cpu_ops
The kernel has never been audited to ensure that this_cpu operations are
consistently used throughout the kernel.  The code generated in many
places can be improved through the use of this_cpu operations (which
uses a segment register for relocation of per cpu offsets instead of
performing address calculations).

The patch set also addresses various consistency issues in general with
the per cpu macros.

A. The semantics of __this_cpu_ptr() differs from this_cpu_ptr only
   because checks are skipped. This is typically shown through a raw_
   prefix. So this patch set changes the places where __this_cpu_ptr()
   is used to raw_cpu_ptr().

B. There has been the long term wish by some that __this_cpu operations
   would check for preemption. However, there are cases where preemption
   checks need to be skipped. This patch set adds raw_cpu operations that
   do not check for preemption and then adds preemption checks to the
   __this_cpu operations.

C. The use of __get_cpu_var is always a reference to a percpu variable
   that can also be handled via a this_cpu operation. This patch set
   replaces all uses of __get_cpu_var with this_cpu operations.

D. We can then use this_cpu RMW operations in various places replacing
   sequences of instructions by a single one.

E. The use of this_cpu operations throughout will allow other arches than
   x86 to implement optimized references and RMV operations to work with
   per cpu local data.

F. The use of this_cpu operations opens up the possibility to
   further optimize code that relies on synchronization through
   per cpu data.

The patch set works in a couple of stages:

I. Patch 1 adds the additional raw_cpu operations and raw_cpu_ptr().
    Also converts the existing __this_cpu_xx_# primitive in the x86
    code to raw_cpu_xx_#.

II. Patch 2-4 use the raw_cpu operations in places that would give
     us false positives once they are enabled.

III. Patch 5 adds preemption checks to __this_cpu operations to allow
    checking if preemption is properly disabled when these functions
    are used.

IV. Patches 6-20 are patches that simply replace uses of __get_cpu_var
   with this_cpu_ptr. They do not depend on any changes to the percpu
   code. No preemption tests are skipped if they are applied.

V. Patches 21-46 are conversion patches that use this_cpu operations
   in various kernel subsystems/drivers or arch code.

VI.  Patches 47/48 (not included in this series) remove no longer used
    functions (__this_cpu_ptr and __get_cpu_var).  These should only be
    applied after all the conversion patches have made it and after we
    have done additional passes through the kernel to ensure that none of
    the uses of these functions remain.

This patch (of 46):

The patches following this one will add preemption checks to __this_cpu
ops so we need to have an alternative way to use this_cpu operations
without preemption checks.

raw_cpu_ops will be the basis for all other ops since these will be the
operations that do not implement any checks.

Primitive operations are renamed by this patch from __this_cpu_xxx to
raw_cpu_xxxx.

Also change the uses of the x86 percpu primitives in preempt.h.
These depend directly on asm/percpu.h (header #include nesting issue).

309381feae mm: dump page when hitting a VM_BUG_ON using VM_BUG_ON_PAGE
Most of the VM_BUG_ON assertions are performed on a page.  Usually, when
one of these assertions fails we'll get a BUG_ON with a call stack and
the registers.

I've recently noticed based on the requests to add a small piece of code
that dumps the page to various VM_BUG_ON sites that the page dump is
quite useful to people debugging issues in mm.

This patch adds a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(cond, page) which beyond doing what
VM_BUG_ON() does, also dumps the page before executing the actual
BUG_ON.

bd09d9a351 percpu: fix this_cpu_sub() subtrahend casting for unsigneds
this_cpu_sub() is implemented as negation and addition.

This patch casts the adjustment to the counter type before negation to
sign extend the adjustment.  This helps in cases where the counter type
is wider than an unsigned adjustment.  An alternative to this patch is
to declare such operations unsupported, but it seemed useful to avoid
surprises.

This patch specifically helps the following example:
  unsigned int delta = 1
  preempt_disable()
  this_cpu_write(long_counter, 0)
  this_cpu_sub(long_counter, delta)
  preempt_enable()

Before this change long_counter on a 64 bit machine ends with value
0xffffffff, rather than 0xffffffffffffffff.  This is because
this_cpu_sub(pcp, delta) boils down to this_cpu_add(pcp, -delta),
which is basically:
  long_counter = 0 + 0xffffffff

Also apply the same cast to:
  __this_cpu_sub()
  __this_cpu_sub_return()
  this_cpu_sub_return()

All percpu_test.ko passes, especially the following cases which
previously failed:

  l -= ui_one;
  __this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);

  l -= ui_one;
  this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
  CHECK(l, long_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);

  ul -= ui_one;
  __this_cpu_sub(ulong_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, -1);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);

  ul = this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 2);

  ul = __this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 1);

It doesn't make sense to trace irq off or do irq flags
lock proving inside 'this_cpu' operations, so replace local_irq_*
with raw_local_irq_* in 'this_cpu' op.

Also the patch fixes onelockdep warning[1] by the replacement, see
below:

In commit: 933393f58fef9963eac61db8093689544e29a600(percpu:
Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants), local_irq_save/restore(flags) are
added inside this_cpu_inc operation, so that trace_hardirqs_off_caller
will be called by trace_hardirqs_on_caller directly because
__debug_atomic_inc is implemented as this_cpu_inc, which may trigger
the lockdep warning[1], for example in the below ARM scenary:

	kernel_thread_helper	/*irq disabled*/
		->trace_hardirqs_on_caller	/*hardirqs_enabled was set*/
			->trace_hardirqs_off_caller	/*hardirqs_enabled cleared*/
				__this_cpu_add(redundant_hardirqs_on)
			->trace_hardirqs_off_caller	/*irq disabled, so call here*/

The 'unannotated irqs-on' warning will be triggered somewhere because
irq is just enabled after the irq trace in kernel_thread_helper.

7d96b3e55a percpu: fix generic definition of __this_cpu_add_and_return()
This patch adds missed "__" into function prefix.
Otherwise on all archectures (except x86) it expands to irq/preemtion-safe
variant: _this_cpu_generic_add_return(), which do extra irq-save/irq-restore.
Optimal generic implementation is __this_cpu_generic_add_return().

933393f58f percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants
We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of
preemption and interrupt state.  That has no material change for x86
and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations.  However, arches that
do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will
now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption.

-tj: This is part of on-going percpu API cleanup.  For detailed

d4d84fef6d slub: always align cpu_slab to honor cmpxchg_double requirement
On an architecture without CMPXCHG_LOCAL but with DEBUG_VM enabled,
the VM_BUG_ON() in __pcpu_double_call_return_bool() will cause an early
panic during boot unless we always align cpu_slab properly.

In principle we could remove the alignment-testing VM_BUG_ON() for
architectures that don't have CMPXCHG_LOCAL, but leaving it in means
that new code will tend not to break x86 even if it is introduced
on another platform, and it's low cost to require alignment.

30106b8ce2 slub: Fix the lockless code on 32-bit platforms with no 64-bit cmpxchg
The SLUB allocator use of the cmpxchg_double logic was wrong: it
actually needs the irq-safe one.

That happens automatically when we use the native unlocked 'cmpxchg8b'
instruction, but when compiling the kernel for older x86 CPUs that do
not support that instruction, we fall back to the generic emulation
code.

And if you don't specify that you want the irq-safe version, the generic
code ends up just open-coding the cmpxchg8b equivalent without any
protection against interrupts or preemption.  Which definitely doesn't
work for SLUB.

This was reported by Werner Landgraf <w.landgraf@ru.ru>, who saw
instability with his distro-kernel that was compiled to support pretty
much everything under the sun.  Most big Linux distributions tend to
compile for PPro and later, and would never have noticed this problem.

This also fixes the prototypes for the irqsafe cmpxchg_double functions
to use 'bool' like they should.

[ Btw, that whole "generic code defaults to no protection" design just
  sounds stupid - if the code needs no protection, there is no reason to
  use "cmpxchg_double" to begin with.  So we should probably just remove
  the unprotected version entirely as pointless.   - Linus ]

	bool this_cpu_cmpxchg_double(pcp1, pcp2,

successful.

2b71244285 percpu: Generic this_cpu_cmpxchg() and this_cpu_xchg support
Generic code to provide new per cpu atomic features

	this_cpu_cmpxchg
	this_cpu_xchg

Fallback occurs to functions using interrupts disable/enable
to ensure correct per cpu atomicity.

Fallback to regular cmpxchg and xchg is not possible since per cpu atomic
semantics include the guarantee that the current cpus per cpu data is
accessed atomically. Use of regular cmpxchg and xchg requires the
determination of the address of the per cpu data before regular cmpxchg
or xchg which therefore cannot be atomically included in an xchg or
cmpxchg without segment override.

bbddff0545 percpu: use percpu allocator on UP too
On UP, percpu allocations were redirected to kmalloc.  This has the
following problems.

* For certain amount of allocations (determined by
  PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SLOTS and PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE), percpu
  allocator can be used before the usual kernel memory allocator is
  brought online.  On SMP, this is used to initialize the kernel
  memory allocator.

* percpu allocator honors alignment upto PAGE_SIZE but kmalloc()
  doesn't.  For example, workqueue makes use of larger alignments for
  cpu_workqueues.

Currently, users of percpu allocators need to handle UP differently,
which is somewhat fragile and ugly.  Other than small amount of
memory, there isn't much to lose by enabling percpu allocator on UP.
It can simply use kernel memory based chunk allocation which was added
for SMP archs w/o MMUs.

This patch removes mm/percpu_up.c, builds mm/percpu.c on UP too and
makes UP build use percpu-km.  As percpu addresses and kernel
addresses are always identity mapped and static percpu variables don't
need any special treatment, nothing is arch dependent and mm/percpu.c
implements generic setup_per_cpu_areas() for UP.

In preparation of enabling percpu allocator for UP, reduce
PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE to 32k.  On UP, the first chunk doesn't have to
include static percpu variables and chunk size can be smaller which is
important as UP percpu allocator will use contiguous kernel memory to
populate chunks.

PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE also determines the maximum supported allocation
size but 32k should still be enough.

099a19d91c percpu: allow limited allocation before slab is online
This patch updates percpu allocator such that it can serve limited
amount of allocation before slab comes online.  This is primarily to
allow slab to depend on working percpu allocator.

Two parameters, PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE and SLOTS, determine how
much memory space and allocation map slots are reserved.  If this
reserved area is exhausted, WARN_ON_ONCE() will trigger and allocation
will fail till slab comes online.

The following changes are made to implement early alloc.

* pcpu_mem_alloc() now checks slab_is_available()

* Chunks are allocated using pcpu_mem_alloc()

* Init paths make sure ai->dyn_size is at least as large as
  PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE.

* Initial alloc maps are allocated in __initdata and copied to
  kmalloc'd areas once slab is online.

percpu.h has always been including slab.h to get k[mz]alloc/free() for

Lee Schermerhorn was trying to make topology.h use percpu.h and got
bitten by this implicit inclusion.  The right thing to do is break
this ultimately unnecessary dependency.  The previous patch added
