The x86/mtrr code does horrific things because hardware. It uses
stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu(), which does a wakeup (of the stopper
thread on another CPU), which uses RCU, all before the CPU is onlined.
RCU complains about this, because wakeups use RCU and RCU does
(rightfully) not consider offline CPUs for grace-periods.
Fix this by initializing RCU way early in the MTRR case.

The rcutorture scripting scans the console output twice, once to look

Unfortunately, only the output of the second scan gets written to the

This commit therefore folds the parse-torture.sh script (which looks
for hangs) into the parse-console.sh script (which looks for warnings

The rcu_start_this_gp() function had a simple form of funnel locking that
used only the leaves and root of the rcu_node tree, which is fine for
systems with only a few hundred CPUs, but sub-optimal for systems having
thousands of CPUs. This commit therefore adds full-tree funnel locking.
This variant of funnel locking is unusual in the following ways:
1. The leaf-level rcu_node structure's ->lock is held throughout.
Other funnel-locking implementations drop the leaf-level lock
before progressing to the next level of the tree.
2. Funnel locking can be started at the root, which is convenient
for code that already holds the root rcu_node structure's ->lock.
Other funnel-locking implementations start at the leaves.
3. If an rcu_node structure other than the initial one believes
that a grace period is in progress, it is not necessary to
go further up the tree. This is because grace-period cleanup
scans the full tree, so that marking the need for a subsequent
grace period anywhere in the tree suffices -- but only if
a grace period is currently in progress.
4. It is possible that the RCU grace-period kthread has not yet
started, and this case must be handled appropriately.
However, the general approach of using a tree to control lock contention
is still in place.

The __rcu_process_callbacks() function currently checks to see if
the current CPU needs a grace period and also if there is any other
reason to kick off a new grace period. This is one of the fail-safe
checks that has been rendered unnecessary by the changes that increase
the accuracy of rcu_gp_cleanup()'s estimate as to whether another grace
period is required. Because this particular fail-safe involved acquiring
the root rcu_node structure's ->lock, which has seen excessive contention
in real life, this fail-safe needs to go.
However, one check must remain, namely the check for newly arrived
RCU callbacks that have not yet been associated with a grace period.
One might hope that the checks in __note_gp_changes(), which is invoked
indirectly from rcu_check_quiescent_state(), would suffice, but this
function won't be invoked at all if RCU is idle. It is therefore necessary
to replace the fail-safe checks with a simpler check for newly arrived
callbacks during an RCU idle period, which is exactly what this commit
does. This change removes the final call to rcu_start_gp(), so this
function is removed as well.
Note that lockless use of cpu_needs_another_gp() is racy, but that
these races are harmless in this case. If RCU really is idle, the
values will not change, so the return value from cpu_needs_another_gp()
will be correct. If RCU is not idle, the resulting redundant call to
rcu_accelerate_cbs() will be harmless, and might even have the benefit
of reducing grace-period latency a bit.
This commit also moves interrupt disabling into the "if" statement to
improve real-time response a bit.

The rcu_cbs_completed() function provides the value of ->completed

the elements of these arrays corresponding to the just-completed grace
period are zeroed at the end of that grace period. However, the
rcu_cbs_completed() function can return the current ->completed value
plus either one or two, so it is possible for the corresponding

losing a request for a future grace period.

instead leaves the grace-period-needed state where various fail-safes
can find it. This works fine, but results in higher contention on the

When rcu_cbs_completed() is invoked on a non-root rcu_node structure,
it unconditionally assumes that two grace periods must complete before
the callbacks at hand can be invoked. This is overly conservative because
if that non-root rcu_node structure believes that no grace period is in
progress, and if the corresponding rcu_state structure's ->gpnum field
has not yet been incremented, then these callbacks may safely be invoked
after only one grace period has completed.
This change is required to permit grace-period start requests to use
funnel locking, which is in turn permitted to reduce root rcu_node ->lock
contention, which has been observed by Nick Piggin. Furthermore, such
contention will likely be increased by the merging of RCU-bh, RCU-preempt,
and RCU-sched, so it makes sense to take steps to decrease it.
This commit therefore improves the accuracy of rcu_cbs_completed() when

in hangs when running the trace benchmarks.
A number of potential fixes were discussed on LKML

scheduler/RCU rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch() function. All were

due to magic functions inviting cargo culting.
This commit renames cond_resched_rcu_qs() to cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs(),

Currently some callsites of sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done() are not called

bugs as per Paul:
o CPU 0 in sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done() reads ->exp_tasks and

o CPU 1 blocks within an RCU read-side critical section, so
it enqueues the task and points ->exp_tasks at it and
clears CPU 1's bit in ->expmask.
o All other CPUs clear their bits in ->expmask.
o CPU 0 reads ->expmask, sees that it is zero, so incorrectly
concludes that all quiescent states have completed, despite
the fact that ->exp_tasks is non-NULL.
To fix this, sync_rcu_preempt_exp_unlocked() is introduced to replace

Further, a lockdep annotation is added into sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done()
to prevent mis-use in the future.

Since commit d9a3da0699 ("rcu: Add expedited grace-period support
for preemptible RCU"), there are comments for some funtions in
rcu_report_exp_rnp()'s call-chain saying that exp_mutex or its
predecessors needs to be held.
However, exp_mutex and its predecessors were used only to synchronize
between GPs, and it is clear that all variables visited by those functions
are under the protection of rcu_node's ->lock. Moreover, those functions
are currently called without held exp_mutex, and seems that doesn't
introduce any trouble.
So this patch fixes this problem by updating the comments to match the
current code.

The latency of RCU expedited grace periods grows with increasing numbers
of CPUs, eventually failing to be all that expedited. Much of the growth
in latency is in the initialization phase, so this commit uses workqueues
to carry out this initialization concurrently on a rcu_node-by-rcu_node
basis.
This change makes use of a new rcu_par_gp_wq because flushing a work
item from another work item running from the same workqueue can result
in deadlock.

This is a set of minor (and safe changes) that didn't make the initial

actually a running regression from the previous merge window which had
an incomplete fix (now reverted) and most of the remaining bug fixes

[ Side note: this merge also takes the base kernel git repository to 6+
million objects for the first time. Technically we hit it a couple of
merges ago already if you count all the tag objects, but now it
reaches 6M+ objects reachable from HEAD.
I was joking around that that's when I should switch to 5.0, because
3.0 happened at the 2M mark, and 4.0 happened at 4M objects. But
probably not, even if numerology is about as good a reason as any.
