The likely cause is that init_waitqueue_head() is called after the call to
the torture_create_kthread() function that creates the ref_scale_reader
kthread. Although this init_waitqueue_head() call will very likely
complete before this kthread is created and starts running, it is
possible that the calling kthread will be delayed between the calls to
torture_create_kthread() and init_waitqueue_head(). In this case, the
new kthread will use the waitqueue head before it is properly initialized,
which is not good for the kernel's health and well-being.
The above crash happened here:

The various RCU Tasks flavors now do lazy grace periods when there are
only asynchronous grace period requests. By default, the system will let
250 milliseconds elapse after the first call_rcu_tasks*() callbacki is
queued before starting a grace period. In contrast, synchronous grace
period requests such as synchronize_rcu_tasks*() will start a grace
period immediately.
However, invoking one of the call_rcu_tasks*() functions in a too-tight
loop can result in a callback flood, which in turn can exhaust memory
if grace periods are delayed for too long.
This commit therefore sets a limit so that the grace-period kthread
will be awakened when any CPU's callback list expands to contain
rcupdate.rcu_task_lazy_lim callbacks elements (defaulting to 32, set to -1
to disable), the grace-period kthread will be awakened, thus cancelling
any ongoing laziness and getting out in front of the potential callback
flood.

The performance requirements on RCU Tasks, and in particular on RCU
Tasks Trace, have evolved over time as the workloads have evolved.
The current implementation is designed to provide low grace-period
latencies, and also to accommodate short-duration floods of callbacks.
However, current workloads can also provide a constant background
callback-queuing rate of a few hundred call_rcu_tasks_trace() invocations
per second. This results in continuous back-to-back RCU Tasks Trace
grace periods, which in turn can consume the better part of 10% of a CPU.
One could take the attitude that there are several tens of other CPUs on
the systems running such workloads, but energy efficiency is a thing.
On these systems, although asynchronous grace-period requests happen
every few milliseconds, synchronous grace-period requests are quite rare.
This commit therefore arrranges for grace periods to be initiated
immediately in response to calls to synchronize_rcu_tasks*() and
also to calls to synchronize_rcu_mult() that are passed one of the
call_rcu_tasks*() functions. These are recognized by the tell-tale
wakeme_after_rcu callback function.
In other cases, callbacks are gathered up for up to about 250 milliseconds
before a grace period is initiated. This results in more than an order of
magnitude reduction in RCU Tasks Trace grace periods, with corresponding
reduction in consumption of CPU time.

If a CPU is executing a long series of non-sleeping system calls,
RCU grace periods can be delayed for on the order of a couple hundred
milliseconds. This is normally not a problem, but if each system call
does a call_rcu(), those callbacks can stack up. RCU will eventually
notice this callback storm, but use of rcu_request_urgent_qs_task()
allows the code invoking call_rcu() to give RCU a heads up.
This function is not for general use, not yet, anyway.

The rcu_tasks_invoke_cbs() function relies on queue_work_on() to silently
fall back to WORK_CPU_UNBOUND when the specified CPU is offline. However,
the queue_work_on() function's silent fallback mechanism relies on that
CPU having been online at some time in the past. When queue_work_on()
is passed a CPU that has never been online, workqueue lockups ensue,
which can be bad for your kernel's general health and well-being.
This commit therefore checks whether a given CPU has ever been online,
and, if not substitutes WORK_CPU_UNBOUND in the subsequent call to
queue_work_on(). Why not simply omit the queue_work_on() call entirely?
Because this function is flooding callback-invocation notifications
to all CPUs, and must deal with possibilities that include a sparse
cpu_possible_mask.
This commit also moves the setting of the rcu_data structure's
->beenonline field to rcu_cpu_starting(), which executes on the
incoming CPU before that CPU has ever enabled interrupts. This ensures
that the required workqueues are present. In addition, because the
incoming CPU has not yet enabled its interrupts, there cannot yet have
been any softirq handlers running on this CPU, which means that the
WARN_ON_ONCE(!rdp->beenonline) within the RCU_SOFTIRQ handler cannot
have triggered yet.

Currently, rcu_cpu_starting() is written so that it might be invoked
with interrupts enabled. However, it is always called when interrupts
are disabled, either by rcu_init(), notify_cpu_starting(), or from a
call point prior to the call to notify_cpu_starting().
But why bother requiring that interrupts be disabled? The purpose is
to allow the rcu_data structure's ->beenonline flag to be set after all
early processing has completed for the incoming CPU, thus allowing this
flag to be used to determine when workqueues have been set up for the
incoming CPU, while still allowing this flag to be used as a diagnostic
within rcu_core().

The per-CPU rcu_data structure's ->cpu_no_qs.b.exp field is updated

only if interrupts are disabled, given that interrupt handlers can and
do modify this field.
Unfortunately, although the load from rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() is always
carried out from the corresponding CPU, interrupts are not necessarily
disabled. This commit therefore upgrades this load to READ_ONCE.
Similarly, the diagnostic access from synchronize_rcu_expedited_wait()
might run with interrupts disabled and from some other CPU. This commit
therefore marks this load with data_race().
Finally, the C-language access in rcu_preempt_ctxt_queue() is OK as
is because interrupts are disabled and this load is always from the
corresponding CPU. This commit adds a comment giving the rationale for
this access being safe.

Currently, if there are more than 100 ready-to-invoke RCU callbacks queued
on a given CPU, the rcu_do_batch() function sets a timeout for invocation
of the series. This timeout defaulting to three milliseconds, and may
be adjusted using the rcutree.rcu_resched_ns kernel boot parameter.
This timeout is checked using local_clock(), but the overhead of this
function combined with the common-case very small callback-invocation
overhead means that local_clock() is checked every 32nd invocation.
This works well except for longer-than average callbacks. For example,
a series of 500-microsecond-duration callbacks means that local_clock()
is checked only once every 16 milliseconds, which makes it difficult to
enforce a three-millisecond timeout.
This commit therefore adds a Kconfig option RCU_DOUBLE_CHECK_CB_TIME
that enables backup timeout checking using the coarser grained but
lighter weight jiffies. If the jiffies counter detects a timeout,
then local_clock() is consulted even if this is not the 32nd callback.
This prevents the aforementioned 16-millisecond latency blow.

Currently, a callback-invocation time limit is enforced only for
callbacks invoked from the softirq environment, the rationale being
that when callbacks are instead invoked from rcuc and rcuoc kthreads,
these callbacks cannot be holding up other softirq vectors.
Which is in fact true. However, if an rcuc kthread spends too much time
invoking callbacks, it can delay quiescent-state reports from its CPU,
which can also be a problem.
This commit therefore applies the callback-invocation time limit to
callback invocation from the rcuc kthreads as well as from softirq.

The shrinker resets the lazy callbacks counter in order to trigger the
pending lazy queue flush though the rcuog kthread. The counter reset is
protected by the ->nocb_lock against concurrent accesses...except
for one of them. Here is a list of existing synchronized readers/writer:
1) The first lazy enqueuer (incrementing ->lazy_len to 1) does so under
->nocb_lock and ->nocb_bypass_lock.
2) The further lazy enqueuers (incrementing ->lazy_len above 1) do so
under ->nocb_bypass_lock _only_.
3) The lazy flush checks and resets to 0 under ->nocb_lock and
->nocb_bypass_lock.
The shrinker protects its ->lazy_len reset against cases 1) and 3) but
not against 2). As such, setting ->lazy_len to 0 under the ->nocb_lock
may be cancelled right away by an overwrite from an enqueuer, leading
rcuog to ignore the flush.
To avoid that, use the proper bypass flush API which takes care of all
those details.

The shrinker may run concurrently with callbacks (de-)offloading. As
such, calling rcu_nocb_lock() is very dangerous because it does a
conditional locking. The worst outcome is that rcu_nocb_lock() doesn't
lock but rcu_nocb_unlock() eventually unlocks, or the reverse, creating
an imbalance.
Fix this with protecting against (de-)offloading using the barrier mutex.
Although if the barrier mutex is contended, which should be rare, then
step aside so as not to trigger a mutex VS allocation

During this time, kfree_rcu_work() might run, and might fill in part or
all of this cache of pages, thus invalidating the fill_page_cache_func()

This will not overfill the cache because put_cached_bnode() will reject

The add_ptr_to_bulk_krc_lock() function is invoked to allocate a new
kfree_rcu() page, also known as a kvfree_rcu_bulk_data structure.
The kfree_rcu_cpu structure's lock is used to protect this operation,
except that this lock must be momentarily dropped when allocating memory.
It is clearly important that the lock that is reacquired be the same
lock that was acquired initially via krc_this_cpu_lock().
Unfortunately, this same krc_this_cpu_lock() function is used to
re-acquire this lock, and if the task migrated to some other CPU during
the memory allocation, this will result in the kvfree_rcu_bulk_data

the RCU entry and Zqiang being added as an RCU reviewer.
I have also transitioned from reviewer to maintainer; however, Paul
will be taking over sending RCU pull-requests for the next merge
window.
- Resolution of hotplug warning in nohz code, achieved by fixing
cpu_is_hotpluggable() through interaction with the nohz subsystem.
Tick dependency modifications by Zqiang, focusing on fixing usage of
the TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU_EXP bitmask.
- Avoid needless calls to the rcu-lazy shrinker for CONFIG_RCU_LAZY=n
kernels, fixed by Zqiang.
- Improvements to rcu-tasks stall reporting by Neeraj.
- Initial renaming of k[v]free_rcu() to k[v]free_rcu_mightsleep() for
increased robustness, affecting several components like mac802154,
drbd, vmw_vmci, tracing, and more.
A report by Eric Dumazet showed that the API could be unknowingly
used in an atomic context, so we'd rather make sure they know what
they're asking for by being explicit:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221202052847.2623997-1-edumazet@google.com/
- Documentation updates, including corrections to spelling,
clarifications in comments, and improvements to the srcu_size_state
comments.
- Better srcu_struct cache locality for readers, by adjusting the size
of srcu_struct in support of SRCU usage by Christoph Hellwig.
- Teach lockdep to detect deadlocks between srcu_read_lock() vs
synchronize_srcu() contributed by Boqun.
Previously lockdep could not detect such deadlocks, now it can.
- Integration of rcutorture and rcu-related tools, targeted for v6.4
from Boqun's tree, featuring new SRCU deadlock scenarios, test_nmis
module parameter, and more
- Miscellaneous changes, various code cleanups and comment improvements

Memory passed to kvfree_rcu() that is to be freed is tracked by a
per-CPU kfree_rcu_cpu structure, which in turn contains pointers
to kvfree_rcu_bulk_data structures that contain pointers to memory
that has not yet been handed to RCU, along with an kfree_rcu_cpu_work
structure that tracks the memory that has already been handed to RCU.
These structures track three categories of memory: (1) Memory for
kfree(), (2) Memory for kvfree(), and (3) Memory for both that arrived
during an OOM episode. The first two categories are tracked in a
cache-friendly manner involving a dynamically allocated page of pointers
(the aforementioned kvfree_rcu_bulk_data structures), while the third
uses a simple (but decidedly cache-unfriendly) linked list through the
rcu_head structures in each block of memory.
On a given CPU, these three categories are handled as a unit, with that
CPU's kfree_rcu_cpu_work structure having one pointer for each of the
three categories. Clearly, new memory for a given category cannot be
placed in the corresponding kfree_rcu_cpu_work structure until any old
memory has had its grace period elapse and thus has been removed. And
the kfree_rcu_monitor() function does in fact check for this.
Except that the kfree_rcu_monitor() function checks these pointers one
at a time. This means that if the previous kfree_rcu() memory passed
to RCU had only category 1 and the current one has only category 2, the
kfree_rcu_monitor() function will send that current category-2 memory
along immediately. This can result in memory being freed too soon,
that is, out from under unsuspecting RCU readers.
To see this, consider the following sequence of events, in which:
o Task A on CPU 0 calls rcu_read_lock(), then uses "from_cset",
then is preempted.
o CPU 1 calls kfree_rcu(cset, rcu_head) in order to free "from_cset"
after a later grace period. Except that "from_cset" is freed
right after the previous grace period ended, so that "from_cset"
is immediately freed. Task A resumes and references "from_cset"'s
member, after which nothing good happens.

This commit therefore causes kfree_rcu_monitor() to refrain from moving

grace period has completed for all three categories.

For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y, the following scenario can
result in a NULL-pointer dereference:
CPU1 CPU2
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore rcu_print_task_exp_stall
if (special.b.blocked) READ_ONCE(rnp->exp_tasks) != NULL
raw_spin_lock_rcu_node
np = rcu_next_node_entry(t, rnp)
if (&t->rcu_node_entry == rnp->exp_tasks)
WRITE_ONCE(rnp->exp_tasks, np)
....
raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore_rcu_node
raw_spin_lock_irqsave_rcu_node
t = list_entry(rnp->exp_tasks->prev,
struct task_struct, rcu_node_entry)
(if rnp->exp_tasks is NULL, this
will dereference a NULL pointer)
The problem is that CPU2 accesses the rcu_node structure's->exp_tasks
field without holding the rcu_node structure's ->lock and CPU2 did
not observe CPU1's change to rcu_node structure's ->exp_tasks in time.
Therefore, if CPU1 sets rcu_node structure's->exp_tasks pointer to NULL,
then CPU2 might dereference that NULL pointer.
This commit therefore holds the rcu_node structure's ->lock while
accessing that structure's->exp_tasks field.

According to the commit log of the patch that added it to the kernel,
start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited() can be invoked very early, as
in long before rcu_init() has been invoked. But before rcu_init(),
the rcu_data structure's ->mynode field has not yet been initialized.
This means that the start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited() function's
attempt to set the CPU's leaf rcu_node structure's ->exp_seq_poll_rq
field will result in a segmentation fault.
This commit therefore causes start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited() to
set ->exp_seq_poll_rq only after rcu_init() has initialized all CPUs'
rcu_data structures' ->mynode fields. It also removes the check from
the rcu_init() function so that start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited(
is unconditionally invoked. Yes, this might result in an unnecessary
boot-time grace period, but this is down in the noise.

The rcu_accelerate_cbs() function is invoked by rcu_report_qs_rdp()
only if there is a grace period in progress that is still blocked
by at least one CPU on this rcu_node structure. This means that
rcu_accelerate_cbs() should never return the value true, and thus that
this function should never set the needwake variable and in turn never
invoke rcu_gp_kthread_wake().
This commit therefore removes the needwake variable and the invocation
of rcu_gp_kthread_wake() in favor of a WARN_ON_ONCE() on the call to
rcu_accelerate_cbs(). The purpose of this new WARN_ON_ONCE() is to
detect situations where the system's opinion differs from ours.

For kernels built with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, the following scenario can result
in the scheduling-clock interrupt remaining enabled on a holdout CPU after
its quiescent state has been reported:
CPU1 CPU2
rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult synchronize_rcu_expedited_wait
acquires rnp->lock mask = rnp->expmask;
for_each_leaf_node_cpu_mask(rnp, cpu, mask)
rnp->expmask = rnp->expmask & ~mask; rdp = per_cpu_ptr(&rcu_data, cpu1);
for_each_leaf_node_cpu_mask(rnp, cpu, mask)
rdp = per_cpu_ptr(&rcu_data, cpu1);
if (!rdp->rcu_forced_tick_exp)
continue; rdp->rcu_forced_tick_exp = true;
tick_dep_set_cpu(cpu1, TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU_EXP);
The problem is that CPU2's sampling of rnp->expmask is obsolete by the
time it invokes tick_dep_set_cpu(), and CPU1 is not guaranteed to see
CPU2's store to ->rcu_forced_tick_exp in time to clear it. And even if
CPU1 does see that store, it might invoke tick_dep_clear_cpu() before
CPU2 got around to executing its tick_dep_set_cpu(), which would still
leave the victim CPU with its scheduler-clock tick running.
Either way, an nohz_full real-time application running on the victim
CPU would have its latency needlessly degraded.
Note that expedited RCU grace periods look at context-tracking
information, and so if the CPU is executing in nohz_full usermode
throughout, that CPU cannot be victimized in this manner.
This commit therefore causes synchronize_rcu_expedited_wait to hold
the rcu_node structure's ->lock when checking for holdout CPUs, setting
TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU_EXP, and invoking tick_dep_set_cpu(), thus preventing
this race.

There is an smp_mb() named "E" in srcu_flip() immediately before the
increment (flip) of the srcu_struct structure's ->srcu_idx.
The purpose of E is to order the preceding scan's read of lock counters
against the flipping of the ->srcu_idx, in order to prevent new readers
from continuing to use the old ->srcu_idx value, which might needlessly
extend the grace period.
However, this ordering is already enforced because of the control
dependency between the preceding scan and the ->srcu_idx flip.
This control dependency exists because atomic_long_read() is used
to scan the counts, because WRITE_ONCE() is used to flip ->srcu_idx,
and because ->srcu_idx is not flipped until the ->srcu_lock_count[] and
->srcu_unlock_count[] counts match. And such a match cannot happen when
there is an in-flight reader that started before the flip (observation
courtesy Mathieu Desnoyers).
The litmus test below (courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker, with changes
for ctrldep by Boqun and Joel) shows this:
C srcu
(*
* bad condition: P0's first scan (SCAN1) saw P1's idx=0 LOCK count inc, though P1 saw flip.
*
* So basically, the ->po ordering on both P0 and P1 is enforced via ->ppo
* (control deps) on both sides, and both P0 and P1 are interconnected by ->rf
* relations. Combining the ->ppo with ->rf, a cycle is impossible.
*)
{}
// updater
P0(int *IDX, int *LOCK0, int *UNLOCK0, int *LOCK1, int *UNLOCK1)
{
int lock1;
int unlock1;
int lock0;
int unlock0;
// SCAN1
unlock1 = READ_ONCE(*UNLOCK1);
smp_mb(); // A
lock1 = READ_ONCE(*LOCK1);
// FLIP
if (lock1 == unlock1) { // Control dep
smp_mb(); // E // Remove E and still passes.
WRITE_ONCE(*IDX, 1);
smp_mb(); // D
// SCAN2
unlock0 = READ_ONCE(*UNLOCK0);
smp_mb(); // A
lock0 = READ_ONCE(*LOCK0);
}
}
// reader
P1(int *IDX, int *LOCK0, int *UNLOCK0, int *LOCK1, int *UNLOCK1)
{
int tmp;
int idx1;
int idx2;
// 1st reader
idx1 = READ_ONCE(*IDX);
if (idx1 == 0) { // Control dep
tmp = READ_ONCE(*LOCK0);
WRITE_ONCE(*LOCK0, tmp + 1);
smp_mb(); /* B and C */
tmp = READ_ONCE(*UNLOCK0);
WRITE_ONCE(*UNLOCK0, tmp + 1);
} else {
tmp = READ_ONCE(*LOCK1);
WRITE_ONCE(*LOCK1, tmp + 1);
smp_mb(); /* B and C */
tmp = READ_ONCE(*UNLOCK1);
WRITE_ONCE(*UNLOCK1, tmp + 1);
}
}
exists (0:lock1=1 /\ 1:idx1=1)
More complicated litmus tests with multiple SRCU readers also show that
memory barrier E is not needed.
This commit therefore clarifies the comment on memory barrier E.
Why not also remove that redundant smp_mb()?
Because control dependencies are quite fragile due to their not being
recognized by most compilers and tools. Control dependencies therefore
exact an ongoing maintenance burden, and such a burden cannot be justified
in this slowpath. Therefore, that smp_mb() stays until such time as
its overhead becomes a measurable problem in a real workload running on
a real production system, or until such time as compilers start paying
attention to this sort of control dependency.

If a given statically allocated in-module srcu_struct structure was ever
used for updates, srcu_module_going() will invoke cleanup_srcu_struct()
at module-exit time. This will check for the error case of SRCU readers
persisting past module-exit time. On the other hand, if this srcu_struct
structure never went through a grace period, srcu_module_going() only
invokes free_percpu(), which would result in strange failures if SRCU
readers persisted past module-exit time.
This commit therefore adds a srcu_readers_active() check to
srcu_module_going(), splatting if readers have persisted and refraining
from invoking free_percpu() in that case. Better to leak memory than
to suffer silent memory corruption!

However, this means that the container_of() calls cannot get a pointer

This issue is addressed by adding a ->srcu_ssp field in the srcu_usage
structure that references the corresponding srcu_struct structure.
And given the presence of the sup pointer to the srcu_usage structure,
replace some ssp->srcu_usage-> instances with sup->.

Currently, both __init_srcu_struct() in CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y kernels
and init_srcu_struct() in CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=n kernel initialize
the srcu_struct structure's ->lock before the srcu_usage structure has
been allocated. This of course prevents the ->lock from being moved
to the srcu_usage structure, so this commit moves the initialization
into the init_srcu_struct_fields() after the srcu_usage structure has
been allocated.

The current srcu_struct structure is on the order of 200 bytes in size
(depending on architecture and .config), which is much better than the
old-style 26K bytes, but still all too inconvenient when one is trying
to achieve good cache locality on a fastpath involving SRCU readers.
However, only a few fields in srcu_struct are used by SRCU readers.
The remaining fields could be offloaded to a new srcu_update
structure, thus shrinking the srcu_struct structure down to a few
tens of bytes. This commit begins this noble quest, a quest that is
complicated by open-coded initialization of the srcu_struct within the
srcu_notifier_head structure. This complication is addressed by updating
the srcu_notifier_head structure's open coding, given that there does
not appear to be a straightforward way of abstracting that initialization.
This commit moves only the ->node pointer to srcu_update. Later commits
will move additional fields.

Further shrinking the srcu_struct structure is eased by requiring
that in-module srcu_struct structures rely more heavily on static
initialization. In particular, this preserves the property that
a module-load-time srcu_struct initialization can fail only due
to memory-allocation failure of the per-CPU srcu_data structures.
It might also slightly improve robustness by keeping the number of memory
allocations that must succeed down percpu_alloc() call.
This is in preparation for splitting an srcu_usage structure out
of the srcu_struct structure.

Although all flavors of RCU readers are annotated correctly with
lockdep as recursive read locks, they do not set the lock_acquire
'check' parameter. This means that RCU read locks are not added to
the lockdep dependency graph, which in turn means that lockdep cannot
detect RCU-based deadlocks. This is not a problem for RCU flavors having
atomic read-side critical sections because context-based annotations can
catch these deadlocks, see for example the RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() statement
in synchronize_rcu(). But context-based annotations are not helpful
for sleepable RCU, especially given that it is perfectly legal to do
synchronize_srcu(&srcu1) within an srcu_read_lock(&srcu2).
However, we can detect SRCU-based by: (1) Making srcu_read_lock() a
'check'ed recursive read lock and (2) Making synchronize_srcu() a empty
write lock critical section. Even better, with the newly introduced
lock_sync(), we can avoid false positives about irq-unsafe/safe.
This commit therefore makes it so.
Note that NMI-safe SRCU read side critical sections are currently not
annotated, but might be annotated in the future.

Because RCU CPU stall warnings are driven from the scheduling-clock
interrupt handler, a workload consisting of a very large number of
short-duration hardware interrupts can result in misleading stall-warning
messages. On systems supporting only a single level of interrupts,
that is, where interrupts handlers cannot be interrupted, this can
produce misleading diagnostics. The stack traces will show the
innocent-bystander interrupted task, not the interrupts that are
at the very least exacerbating the stall.
This situation can be improved by displaying the number of interrupts
and the CPU time that they have consumed. Diagnosing other types
of stalls can be eased by also providing the count of softirqs and
the CPU time that they consumed as well as the number of context
switches and the task-level CPU time consumed.
Consider the following output given this change:
rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
rcu: 0-....: (1250 ticks this GP) <omitted>
rcu: hardirqs softirqs csw/system
rcu: number: 624 45 0
rcu: cputime: 69 1 2425 ==> 2500(ms)
This output shows that the number of hard and soft interrupts is small,
there are no context switches, and the system takes up a lot of time. This
indicates that the current task is looping with preemption disabled.
The impact on system performance is negligible because snapshot is
recorded only once for all continuous RCU stalls.
This added debugging information is suppressed by default and can be
enabled by building the kernel with CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_CPUTIME=y or
by booting with rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_cputime=1.

The rcu_tasks_need_gpcb() determines whether or not: (1) There are
callbacks needing another grace period, (2) There are callbacks ready
to be invoked, and (3) It would be a good time to shrink back down to a
single-CPU callback list. This third case is interesting because some
other CPU might be adding new callbacks, which might suddenly make this
a very bad time to be shrinking.
This is currently handled by requiring call_rcu_tasks_generic() to
enqueue callbacks under the protection of rcu_read_lock() and requiring
rcu_tasks_need_gpcb() to wait for an RCU grace period to elapse before
finalizing the transition. This works well in practice.
Unfortunately, the current code assumes that a grace period whose end is
detected by the poll_state_synchronize_rcu() in the second "if" condition
actually ended before the earlier code counted the callbacks queued on
CPUs other than CPU 0 (local variable "ncbsnz"). Given the current code,
it is possible that a long-delayed call_rcu_tasks_generic() invocation
will queue a callback on a non-zero CPU after these CPUs have had their
callbacks counted and zero has been stored to ncbsnz. Such a callback
would trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in the second "if" statement.
To see this, consider the following sequence of events:
o CPU 0 invokes rcu_tasks_one_gp(), and counts fewer than
rcu_task_collapse_lim callbacks. It sees at least one
callback queued on some other CPU, thus setting ncbsnz
to a non-zero value.
o CPU 1 invokes call_rcu_tasks_generic() and loads 42 from
->percpu_enqueue_lim. It therefore decides to enqueue its
callback onto CPU 1's callback list, but is delayed.
o CPU 0 sees the rcu_task_cb_adjust is non-zero and that the number
of callbacks does not exceed rcu_task_collapse_lim. It therefore
checks percpu_enqueue_lim, and sees that its value is greater
than the value one. CPU 0 therefore starts the shift back
to a single callback list. It sets ->percpu_enqueue_lim to 1,
but CPU 1 has already read the old value of 42. It also gets
a grace-period state value from get_state_synchronize_rcu().
o CPU 0 sees that ncbsnz is non-zero in its second "if" statement,
so it declines to finalize the shrink operation.
o CPU 0 again invokes rcu_tasks_one_gp(), and counts fewer than
rcu_task_collapse_lim callbacks. It also sees that there are
no callback queued on any other CPU, and thus sets ncbsnz to zero.
o CPU 1 resumes execution and enqueues its callback onto its own
list. This invalidates the value of ncbsnz.
o CPU 0 sees the rcu_task_cb_adjust is non-zero and that the number
of callbacks does not exceed rcu_task_collapse_lim. It therefore
checks percpu_enqueue_lim, but sees that its value is already
unity. It therefore does not get a new grace-period state value.
o CPU 0 sees that rcu_task_cb_adjust is non-zero, ncbsnz is zero,
and that poll_state_synchronize_rcu() says that the grace period
has completed. it therefore finalizes the shrink operation,
setting ->percpu_dequeue_lim to the value one.
o CPU 0 does a debug check, scanning the other CPUs' callback lists.
It sees that CPU 1's list has a callback, so it (rightly)
triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE(). After all, the new value of
->percpu_dequeue_lim says to not bother looking at CPU 1's
callback list, which means that this callback will never be
invoked. This can result in hangs and maybe even OOMs.
Based on long experience with rcutorture, this is an extremely
low-probability race condition, but it really can happen, especially in
preemptible kernels or within guest OSes.
This commit therefore checks for completion of the grace period
before counting callbacks. With this change, in the above failure
scenario CPU 0 would know not to prematurely end the shrink operation
because the grace period would not have completed before the count
operation started.

The synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() function invokes rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp()
to wait one rude RCU-tasks grace period. The rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp()
function in turn checks if there is only a single online CPU. If so, it
will immediately return, because a call to synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude()
is by definition a grace period on a single-CPU system. (We could
have blocked!)
Unfortunately, this check uses num_online_cpus() without synchronization,
which can result in too-short grace periods. To see this, consider the
following scenario:
CPU0 CPU1 (going offline)
migration/1 task:
cpu_stopper_thread
-> take_cpu_down
-> _cpu_disable
(dec __num_online_cpus)
->cpuhp_invoke_callback
preempt_disable
access old_data0
task1
del old_data0 .....
synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude()
task1 schedule out
....
task2 schedule in
rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp()
->__num_online_cpus == 1
->return
....
task1 schedule in
->free old_data0
preempt_enable
When CPU1 decrements __num_online_cpus, its value becomes 1. However,
CPU1 has not finished going offline, and will take one last trip through
the scheduler and the idle loop before it actually stops executing
instructions. Because synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() is mostly used for
tracing, and because both the scheduler and the idle loop can be traced,
this means that CPU0's prematurely ended grace period might disrupt the
tracing on CPU1. Given that this disruption might include CPU1 executing
instructions in memory that was just now freed (and maybe reallocated),
this is a matter of some concern.
This commit therefore removes that problematic single-CPU check from the
rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() function. This dispenses with the single-CPU
optimization, but there is no evidence indicating that this optimization
is important. In addition, synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() contains a
similar optimization (albeit only for early boot), which also splats.
(As in exactly why are you invoking synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() so
early in boot, anyway???)
It is OK for the synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() function's check to be
unsynchronized because the only times that this check can evaluate to
true is when there is only a single CPU running with preemption
disabled.
While in the area, this commit also fixes a minor bug in which a
call to synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() would instead be attributed to
synchronize_rcu_tasks().

RCU Tasks and PID-namespace unshare can interact in do_exit() in a
complicated circular dependency:
1) TASK A calls unshare(CLONE_NEWPID), this creates a new PID namespace
that every subsequent child of TASK A will belong to. But TASK A
doesn't itself belong to that new PID namespace.
2) TASK A forks() and creates TASK B. TASK A stays attached to its PID
namespace (let's say PID_NS1) and TASK B is the first task belonging
to the new PID namespace created by unshare() (let's call it PID_NS2).
3) Since TASK B is the first task attached to PID_NS2, it becomes the
PID_NS2 child reaper.
4) TASK A forks() again and creates TASK C which get attached to PID_NS2.
Note how TASK C has TASK A as a parent (belonging to PID_NS1) but has
TASK B (belonging to PID_NS2) as a pid_namespace child_reaper.
5) TASK B exits and since it is the child reaper for PID_NS2, it has to
kill all other tasks attached to PID_NS2, and wait for all of them to
die before getting reaped itself (zap_pid_ns_process()).
6) TASK A calls synchronize_rcu_tasks() which leads to
synchronize_srcu(&tasks_rcu_exit_srcu).
7) TASK B is waiting for TASK C to get reaped. But TASK B is under a
tasks_rcu_exit_srcu SRCU critical section (exit_notify() is between
exit_tasks_rcu_start() and exit_tasks_rcu_finish()), blocking TASK A.
8) TASK C exits and since TASK A is its parent, it waits for it to reap
TASK C, but it can't because TASK A waits for TASK B that waits for
TASK C.
Pid_namespace semantics can hardly be changed at this point. But the
coverage of tasks_rcu_exit_srcu can be reduced instead.
The current task is assumed not to be concurrently reapable at this
stage of exit_notify() and therefore tasks_rcu_exit_srcu can be
temporarily relaxed without breaking its constraints, providing a way
out of the deadlock scenario.

Ever since the following commit:
5a41344a3d ("srcu: Simplify __srcu_read_unlock() via this_cpu_dec()")
SRCU doesn't rely anymore on preemption to be disabled in order to
modify the per-CPU counter. And even then it used to be done from the API
itself.
Therefore and after checking further, it appears to be safe to remove
the preemption disablement around __srcu_read_[un]lock() in
exit_tasks_rcu_start() and exit_tasks_rcu_finish()

Currently, test_rcu_tasks_callback() reads from the jiffies counter only
once when this function is invoked. This introduces inaccuracies because
of the latencies induced by the synchronize_rcu_tasks*() invocations.
This commit therefore re-reads the jiffies counter at the beginning
of each test, thus avoiding penalizing later tests for the latencies
induced by earlier tests.
Therefore, this commit at the start of each RCU Tasks test, re-fetch the

Because there is not guaranteed to be a full memory barrier between
the ->srcu_unlock_count increment of an srcu_read_unlock() and the
->srcu_lock_count increment of the next srcu_read_lock(), this next
srcu_read_lock() is not guaranteed to see the effect of the index flip
just prior to this comment. However, this next srcu_read_lock() will
execute a full memory barrier, so the srcu_read_lock() after that is
guaranteed to see that index flip.
This guarantee is illustrated by the following diagram of events and
the litmus test following that.

The comment in srcu_readers_active_idx_check() following the smp_mb()
is out of date, hailing from a simpler time when preemption was disabled
across the bulk of __srcu_read_lock(). The fact that preemption was
disabled meant that the number of tasks that had fetched the old index
but not yet incremented counters was limited by the number of CPUs.
In our more complex modern times, the number of CPUs is no longer a limit.
This commit therefore updates this comment, additionally giving more
memory-ordering detail.

The srcu_gp_start_if_needed() function now read-holds the srcu_struct
whose grace period is being started, which means that the corresponding
SRCU grace period cannot end. This in turn means that the SRCU
grace-period sequence number returned by rcu_seq_snap() cannot expire
during this time. And that means that the calls to rcu_seq_done() in
srcu_funnel_exp_start() and srcu_funnel_gp_start() can never return true.
This commit therefore removes these rcu_seq_done() checks, but adds checks
in kernels built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y that splats if rcu_seq_done()
does somehow return true.

A grace-period sequence number contains two fields: counter and
state. SRCU_SNP_INIT_SEQ provides a guaranteed invalid value for
grace-period sequence numbers in newly allocated srcu_node structures'
->srcu_have_cbs[] and ->srcu_gp_seq_needed_exp fields. The point of the
comparison in srcu_invl_snp_seq() is not to detect invalid grace-period
sequence numbers in general, but rather to detect a newly allocated
srcu_node structure whose ->srcu_have_cbs[] and ->srcu_gp_seq_needed_exp
fields need to be brought into line with the srcu_struct structure's
->srcu_gp_seq field.
This commit therefore causes srcu_invl_snp_seq() to compare both fields
of the specified grace-period sequence number.

This patch splits the lists of objects so as to avoid sending any
through RCU that have already been queued for more than one grace
period. These long-term-resident objects are immediately freed.
The remaining short-term-resident objects are queued for later freeing
using queue_rcu_work().
This change avoids delaying workqueue handlers with synchronize_rcu()
invocations. Yes, workqueue handlers are designed to handle blocking,
but avoiding blocking when unnecessary improves performance during

The schedule_delayed_monitor_work() function relies on the count of
objects queued into any given kfree_rcu_cpu structure. This count is
used to determine how quickly to schedule passing these objects to RCU.
There are three pipes where pointers can be placed. When any pipe is
offloaded, the kfree_rcu_cpu structure's ->count counter is set to zero,
which is wrong because the other pipes might still be non-empty.
This commit therefore maintains per-pipe counters, and introduces a
krc_count() helper to access the aggregate value of those counters.

Currently all objects placed into a batch wait for a full grace period
to elapse after that batch is ready to send to RCU. However, this
can unnecessarily delay freeing of the first objects that were added
to the batch. After all, several RCU grace periods might have elapsed
since those objects were added, and if so, there is no point in further
deferring their freeing.
This commit therefore adds per-page grace-period snapshots which are
obtained from get_state_synchronize_rcu(). When the batch is ready
to be passed to call_rcu(), each page's snapshot is checked by passing
it to poll_state_synchronize_rcu(). If a given page's RCU grace period
has already elapsed, its objects are freed immediately by kvfree_rcu_bulk().
Otherwise, these objects are freed after a call to synchronize_rcu().
This approach requires that the pages be traversed in reverse order,
that is, the oldest ones first.

The normal grace period's RCU CPU stall warnings are invoked from the
scheduling-clock interrupt handler, and can thus invoke smp_processor_id()
with impunity, which allows them to directly invoke dump_cpu_task().
In contrast, the expedited grace period's RCU CPU stall warnings are
invoked from process context, which causes the dump_cpu_task() function's
calls to smp_processor_id() to complain bitterly in debug kernels.
This commit therefore causes synchronize_rcu_expedited_wait() to disable

Currently, rcu_do_batch() sizes its batches based on the total number
of callbacks in the callback list. This can result in some strange
choices, for example, if there was 12,800 callbacks in the list, but
only 200 were ready to invoke, RCU would invoke 100 at a time (12,800
shifted down by seven bits).
A more measured approach would use the number that were actually ready
to invoke, an approach that has become feasible only recently given the
per-segment ->seglen counts in ->cblist.
This commit therefore bases the batch limit on the number of callbacks
ready to invoke instead of on the total number of callbacks.

rcu: Don't assert interrupts enabled too early in boot
The rcu_poll_gp_seq_end() and rcu_poll_gp_seq_end_unlocked() both check
that interrupts are enabled, as they normally should be when waiting for
an RCU grace period. Except that it is legal to wait for grace periods
during early boot, before interrupts have been enabled for the first time,
and polling for grace periods is required to work during this time.
This can result in false-positive lockdep splats in the presence of
boot-time-initiated tracing.
This commit therefore conditions those interrupts-enabled checks on
rcu_scheduler_active having advanced past RCU_SCHEDULER_INACTIVE, by
which time interrupts have been enabled.

Merge tag 'printk-for-6.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add NMI-safe SRCU reader API. It uses atomic_inc() instead of
this_cpu_inc() on strong load-store architectures.
- Introduce new console_list_lock to synchronize a manipulation of the
list of registered consoles and their flags.
This is a first step in removing the big-kernel-lock-like behavior of
console_lock(). This semaphore still serializes console->write()
calbacks against:
- each other. It primary prevents potential races between early
and proper console drivers using the same device.
- suspend()/resume() callbacks and init() operations in some
drivers.
- various other operations in the tty/vt and framebufer
susbsystems. It is likely that console_lock() serializes even
operations that are not directly conflicting with the
console->write() callbacks here. This is the most complicated
big-kernel-lock aspect of the console_lock() that will be hard
to untangle.
- Introduce new console_srcu lock that is used to safely iterate and
access the registered console drivers under SRCU read lock.
This is a prerequisite for introducing atomic console drivers and
console kthreads. It will reduce the complexity of serialization
against normal consoles and console_lock(). Also it should remove the
risk of deadlock during critical situations, like Oops or panic, when
only atomic consoles are registered.
- Check whether the console is registered instead of enabled on many
locations. It was a historical leftover.
- Cleanly force a preferred console in xenfb code instead of a dirty
hack.
- A lot of code and comment clean ups and improvements.

This pull request contains the following branches:
doc.2022.10.20a: Documentation updates. This is the second
in a series from an ongoing review of the RCU documentation.
fixes.2022.10.21a: Miscellaneous fixes.
lazy.2022.11.30a: Introduces a default-off Kconfig option that depends
on RCU_NOCB_CPU that, on CPUs mentioned in the nohz_full or
rcu_nocbs boot-argument CPU lists, causes call_rcu() to introduce
delays. These delays result in significant power savings on
nearly idle Android and ChromeOS systems. These savings range
from a few percent to more than ten percent.
This series also includes several commits that change call_rcu()
to a new call_rcu_hurry() function that avoids these delays in
a few cases, for example, where timely wakeups are required.
Several of these are outside of RCU and thus have acks and
reviews from the relevant maintainers.
srcunmisafe.2022.11.09a: Creates an srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() and an
srcu_read_unlock_nmisafe() for architectures that support NMIs,
but which do not provide NMI-safe this_cpu_inc(). These NMI-safe
SRCU functions are required by the upcoming lockless printk()
work by John Ogness et al.
That printk() series depends on these commits, so if you pull
the printk() series before this one, you will have already
pulled in this branch, plus two more SRCU commits:
0cd7e350ab ("rcu: Make SRCU mandatory")
51f5f78a4f ("srcu: Make Tiny synchronize_srcu() check for readers")
These two commits appear to work well, but do not have
sufficient testing exposure over a long enough time for me to
feel comfortable pushing them unless something in mainline is
definitely going to use them immediately, and currently only
the new printk() work uses them.
torture.2022.10.18c: Changes providing minor but important increases
in test coverage for the new RCU polled-grace-period APIs.
torturescript.2022.10.20a: Changes that avoid redundant kernel builds,
thus providing about a 30% speedup for the torture.sh acceptance
test.

Kernels configured with CONFIG_PRINTK=n and CONFIG_SRCU=n get build
failures. This causes trouble for deep embedded systems. But given
that there are more than 25 instances of "select SRCU" in the kernel,
it is hard to believe that there are many kernels running in production
without SRCU. This commit therefore makes SRCU mandatory. The SRCU
Kconfig option remains for backwards compatibility, and will be removed
when it is no longer used.

This commit adds 2 tests to rcuscale. The first one is a startup test
to check whether we are not too lazy or too hard working. The second
one causes kfree_rcu() itself to use call_rcu() and checks memory
pressure. Testing indicates that the new call_rcu() keeps memory pressure
under control roughly as well as does kfree_rcu().

Implement timer-based RCU callback batching (also known as lazy
callbacks). With this we save about 5-10% of power consumed due
to RCU requests that happen when system is lightly loaded or idle.
By default, all async callbacks (queued via call_rcu) are marked
lazy. An alternate API call_rcu_hurry() is provided for the few users,
for example synchronize_rcu(), that need the old behavior.
The batch is flushed whenever a certain amount of time has passed, or
the batch on a particular CPU grows too big. Also memory pressure will
flush it in a future patch.
To handle several corner cases automagically (such as rcu_barrier() and
hotplug), we re-use bypass lists which were originally introduced to
address lock contention, to handle lazy CBs as well. The bypass list
length has the lazy CB length included in it. A separate lazy CB length
counter is also introduced to keep track of the number of lazy CBs.

Using the NMI-unsafe reader API from within an NMI handler is very likely
to be buggy for three reasons:
1) NMIs aren't strictly re-entrant (a pending nested NMI will execute at
the end of the current one) so it should be fine to use a non-atomic
increment here. However, breakpoints can still interrupt NMIs and if
a breakpoint callback has a reader on that same ssp, a racy increment
can happen.
2) If the only reader site for a given srcu_struct structure is in an
NMI handler, then RCU should be used instead of SRCU.
3) Because of the previous reason (2), an srcu_struct structure having
an SRCU read side critical section in an NMI handler is likely to
have another one from a task context.
For all these reasons, warn if an NMI-unsafe reader API is used from an
NMI handler.

On strict load-store architectures, the use of this_cpu_inc() by
srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock() is not NMI-safe in TREE SRCU.
To see this suppose that an NMI arrives in the middle of srcu_read_lock(),
just after it has read ->srcu_lock_count, but before it has written
the incremented value back to memory. If that NMI handler also does
srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_lock() on that same srcu_struct structure,
then upon return from that NMI handler, the interrupted srcu_read_lock()
will overwrite the NMI handler's update to ->srcu_lock_count, but
leave unchanged the NMI handler's update by srcu_read_unlock() to
->srcu_unlock_count.
This can result in a too-short SRCU grace period, which can in turn
result in arbitrary memory corruption.
If the NMI handler instead interrupts the srcu_read_unlock(), this
can result in eternal SRCU grace periods, which is not much better.
This commit therefore creates a pair of new srcu_read_lock_nmisafe()
and srcu_read_unlock_nmisafe() functions, which allow SRCU readers in
both NMI handlers and in process and IRQ context. It is bad practice
to mix the existing and the new _nmisafe() primitives on the same
srcu_struct structure. Use one set or the other, not both.
Just to underline that "bad practice" point, using srcu_read_lock() at
process level and srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() in your NMI handler will not,
repeat NOT, work. If you do not immediately understand why this is the
case, please review the earlier paragraphs in this commit log.

When the bypass cblist gets too big or its timeout has occurred, it is
flushed into the main cblist. However, the bypass timer is still running
and the behavior is that it would eventually expire and wake the GP
thread.
Since we are going to use the bypass cblist for lazy CBs, do the wakeup
soon as the flush for "too big or too long" bypass list happens.
Otherwise, long delays can happen for callbacks which get promoted from
lazy to non-lazy.
This is a good thing to do anyway (regardless of future lazy patches),
since it makes the behavior consistent with behavior of other code paths
where flushing into the ->cblist makes the GP kthread into a
non-sleeping state quickly.

In kernels built with either CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL=y or
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, additional CPUs must be added to rcu_nocb_mask.
Except that kernels booted without the rcu_nocbs= will not have
allocated rcu_nocb_mask. And the current rcu_init_nohz() function uses
its need_rcu_nocb_mask and offload_all local variables to track the
rcu_nocb and nohz_full state.
But there is a much simpler approach, namely creating a cpumask pointer
to track the default and then using cpumask_available() to check the

The rcu_report_dead() function invokes rcu_report_exp_rdp() in order
to force an immediate expedited quiescent state on the outgoing
CPU, and then it invokes rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() to provide any
required deferred quiescent state of either sort. Because the call to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() provides the expedited RCU quiescent state if
requested, the call to rcu_report_exp_rdp() is potentially redundant.
One possible issue is a concurrent start of a new expedited RCU
grace period, but this situation is already handled correctly
by __sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus(). This function will detect
that the CPU is going offline via the error return from its call
to smp_call_function_single(). In that case, it will retry, and
eventually stop retrying due to rcu_report_exp_rdp() clearing the
->qsmaskinitnext bit corresponding to the target CPU. As a result,
__sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus() will report the necessary quiescent
state after dealing with any remaining CPU.
This change assumes that control does not enter rcu_report_dead() within
an RCU read-side critical section, but then again, the surviving call
to rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() has always made this assumption.
This commit therefore removes the call to rcu_report_exp_rdp(), thus
relying on rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() to handle both normal and expedited
quiescent states.

Userspace execution is a valid quiescent state for RCU Tasks Trace,
but the scheduling-clock interrupt does not currently report such
quiescent states.
Of course, the scheduling-clock interrupt is not strictly speaking
userspace execution. However, the only way that this code is not
in a quiescent state is if something invoked rcu_read_lock_trace(),
and that would be reflected in the ->trc_reader_nesting field in
the task_struct structure. Furthermore, this field is checked by
rcu_tasks_trace_qs(), which is invoked by rcu_tasks_qs() which is in
turn invoked by rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch() in kernels building
at least one of the RCU Tasks flavors. It is therefore safe to invoke
rcu_tasks_trace_qs() from the rcu_sched_clock_irq().
But rcu_tasks_qs() also invokes rcu_tasks_classic_qs() for RCU
Tasks, which lacks the read-side markers provided by RCU Tasks Trace.
This raises the possibility that an RCU Tasks grace period could start
after the interrupt from userspace execution, but before the call to
rcu_sched_clock_irq(). However, it turns out that this is safe because
the RCU Tasks grace period waits for an RCU grace period, which will
wait for the entire scheduling-clock interrupt handler, including any
RCU Tasks read-side critical section that this handler might contain.
This commit therefore updates the rcu_sched_clock_irq() function's
check for usermode execution and its call to rcu_tasks_classic_qs()
to instead check for both usermode execution and interrupt from idle,
and to instead call rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch(). This
consolidates code and provides more faster RCU Tasks Trace
reporting of quiescent states in kernels that do scheduling-clock
interrupts for userspace execution.

The cond_synchronize_rcu() API compresses the combined expedited and
normal grace-period states into a single unsigned long, which conserves
storage, but can miss grace periods in certain cases involving overlapping
normal and expedited grace periods. Missing the occasional grace period
is usually not a problem, but there are use cases that care about each
and every grace period.
This commit therefore adds yet another member of the full-state RCU
grace-period polling API, which is the cond_synchronize_rcu_full()

Offline CPUs cannot be offloaded or deoffloaded. Any attempt to offload
or deoffload an offline CPU causes a message to be printed on the console,
which is good, but this message does not contain the CPU number, which
is bad. Such a CPU number can be helpful when debugging, as it gives a
clear indication that the CPU in question is in fact offline. This commit
therefore adds the CPU number to the CPU-{,de}offload failure messages.

low utilization of the 512 page slots in scenarios with infrequence

The fill_page_cache_func() function allocates couple of pages to store
kvfree_rcu_bulk_data structures. This is a lightweight (GFP_NORETRY)
allocation which can fail under memory pressure. The function will,
however keep retrying even when the previous attempt has failed.
This retrying is in theory correct, but in practice the allocation is
invoked from workqueue context, which means that if the memory reclaim
gets stuck, these retries can hog the worker for quite some time.
Although the workqueues subsystem automatically adjusts concurrency, such
adjustment is not guaranteed to happen until the worker context sleeps.
And the fill_page_cache_func() function's retry loop is not guaranteed
to sleep (see the should_reclaim_retry() function).
And we have seen this function cause workqueue lockups:
kernel: BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=93 node=1 flags=0x1 nice=0 stuck for 32s!
[...]
kernel: pool 74: cpus=37 node=0 flags=0x1 nice=0 hung=32s workers=2 manager: 2146
kernel: pwq 498: cpus=249 node=1 flags=0x1 nice=0 active=4/256 refcnt=5
kernel: in-flight: 1917:fill_page_cache_func
kernel: pending: dbs_work_handler, free_work, kfree_rcu_monitor
Originally, we thought that the root cause of this lockup was several
retries with direct reclaim, but this is not yet confirmed. Furthermore,
we have seen similar lockups without any heavy memory pressure. This
suggests that there are other factors contributing to these lockups.
However, it is not really clear that endless retries are desireable.
So let's make the fill_page_cache_func() function back off after
allocation failure.

The rcu_boost_kthread_setaffinity() function removes the outgoing CPU
from the set_cpus_allowed() mask for the corresponding leaf rcu_node
structure's rcub priority-boosting kthread. Except that if the outgoing
CPU will leave that structure without any online CPUs, the mask is set
to the housekeeping CPU mask from housekeeping_cpumask(). Which is fine
unless the outgoing CPU happens to be a housekeeping CPU.
This commit therefore removes the outgoing CPU from the housekeeping mask.
This would of course be problematic if the outgoing CPU was the last
online housekeeping CPU, but in that case you are in a world of hurt
anyway. If someone comes up with a valid use case for a system needing
all the housekeeping CPUs to be offline, further adjustments can be made.

Kernels built with PREEMPT_RCU=y and RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y trigger
irq-work from rcu_read_unlock(), and the resulting irq-work handler
invokes rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handle(). The point of this triggering
is to force grace periods to end quickly in order to give tools like KASAN
a better chance of detecting RCU usage bugs such as leaking RCU-protected
pointers out of an RCU read-side critical section.
However, this irq-work triggering is unconditional. This works, but
there is no point in doing this irq-work unless the current grace period
is waiting on the running CPU or task, which is not the common case.
After all, in the common case there are many rcu_read_unlock() calls
per CPU per grace period.
This commit therefore triggers the irq-work only when the current grace
period is waiting on the running CPU or task.
This change was tested as follows on a four-CPU system:
echo rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_profile_enabled
insmod rcutorture.ko
sleep 20
rmmod rcutorture.ko
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_profile_enabled
echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
This procedure produces results in this per-CPU set of files:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function*
Sample output from one of these files is as follows:
Function Hit Time Avg s^2
-------- --- ---- --- ---
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handle 838746 182650.3 us 0.217 us 0.004 us
The baseline sum of the "Hit" values (the number of calls to this
function) was 3,319,015. With this commit, that sum was 1,140,359,
for a 2.9x reduction. The worst-case variance across the CPUs was less
than 25%, so this large effect size is statistically significant.

The trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function attempts to send an NMI to the
target CPU, which usually provides much better stack traces than the
dump_cpu_task() function's approach of dumping that stack from some other
CPU. So much so that most calls to dump_cpu_task() only happen after
a call to trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() has failed. And the exception to
this rule really should attempt to use trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() first.
Therefore, move the trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() invocation into
dump_cpu_task().

Kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n and CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y maintain
preempt_count() state. Because such kernels map __rcu_read_lock()
and __rcu_read_unlock() to preempt_disable() and preempt_enable(),
respectively, this allows the expedited grace period's !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU
version of the rcu_exp_handler() IPI handler function to use
preempt_count() to detect quiescent states.
This preempt_count() usage might seem to risk failures due to
use of implicit RCU readers in portions of the kernel under #ifndef
CONFIG_PREEMPTION, except that rcu_core() already disallows such implicit
RCU readers. The moral of this story is that you must use explicit
read-side markings such as rcu_read_lock() or preempt_disable() even if
the code knows that this kernel does not support preemption.
This commit therefore adds a preempt_count()-based check for a quiescent
state in the !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU version of the rcu_exp_handler()
function for kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y, reporting an
immediate quiescent state when the interrupted code had both preemption
and softirqs enabled.
This change results in about a 2% reduction in expedited grace-period
latency in kernels built with both CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=n and
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y.

report the quiescent state directly from the outermost rcu_read_unlock().
However, the current CPU's rcu_data structure's ->cpu_no_qs.b.norm

thus failing to report quiescent state.

Prevent expedited GPs and blocking readers from consuming CPU"), which
was itself a fix to an SRCU expedited grace-period problem that could
prevent kernel live patching (KLP) from completing. That SRCU fix for
KLP introduced large (as in minutes) boot-time delays to embedded Linux
kernels running on qemu/KVM. These delays were due to the emulation of
certain MMIO operations controlling memory layout, which were emulated
with one expedited grace period per access. Common configurations
required thousands of boot-time MMIO accesses, and thus thousands of
boot-time expedited SRCU grace periods.
In these configurations, the occasional sleeps that allowed KLP to proceed
caused excessive boot delays. These commits preserve enough sleeps to
permit KLP to proceed, but few enough that the virtual embedded kernels
still boot reasonably quickly.
This represents a regression introduced in the v5.19 merge window,
and the bug is causing significant inconvenience, hence this pull request.

srcu: Make expedited RCU grace periods block even less frequently
srcu: Block less aggressively for expedited grace periods
If a CPU has interrupts disabled continuously starting before the
beginning of a given expedited RCU grace period, that CPU will not
execute that grace period's IPI handler. This will in turn mean
that the ->cpu_no_qs.b.exp field in that CPU's rcu_data structure
will continue to contain the boolean value false.
Knowing whether or not a CPU has had interrupts disabled can be helpful
when debugging an expedited RCU CPU stall warning, so this commit
adds a "D" indicator expedited RCU CPU stall warnings that signifies
that the corresponding CPU has had interrupts disabled throughout.
This capability was tested as follows:

rcutorture.stall_no_softlockup=1" -d

When a normal RCU CPU stall warning is encountered with the
panic_on_rcu_stall sysfs variable is set, the system panics only after
the stall warning is printed. But when an expedited RCU CPU stall
warning is encountered with the panic_on_rcu_stall sysfs variable is
set, the system panics first, thus never printing the stall warning.
This commit therefore brings the expedited stall warning into line with
the normal stall warning by printing first and panicking afterwards.

This commit adds expedited grace-period functionality to RCU's polled
grace-period API, adding start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited() and
cond_synchronize_rcu_expedited(), which are similar to the existing
start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu() functions,
respectively.
Note that although start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited() can be invoked
very early, the resulting expedited grace periods are not guaranteed
to start until after workqueues are fully initialized. On the other
hand, both synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_rcu_expedited() can also
be invoked very early, and the resulting grace periods will be taken
into account as they occur.

This commit causes rcu_torture_writer() to use WARN_ON_ONCE() to check
that the cookie returned by the current RCU flavor's ->get_gp_state()
function (get_state_synchronize_rcu() for vanilla RCU) causes that
flavor's ->poll_gp_state function (poll_state_synchronize_rcu() for
vanilla RCU) to unconditionally return true.
Note that a pair calls to synchronous grace-period-wait functions are
used. This is necessary to account for partially overlapping normal and
expedited grace periods aligning in just the wrong way with polled API
invocations, which can cause those polled API invocations to ignore one or
the other of those partially overlapping grace periods. It is unlikely
that this sort of ignored grace period will be a problem in production,
but rcutorture can make it happen quite within a few tens of seconds.
This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods.

Currently, this code could splat:
oldstate = get_state_synchronize_rcu();
synchronize_rcu_expedited();
WARN_ON_ONCE(!poll_state_synchronize_rcu(oldstate));
This situation is counter-intuitive and user-unfriendly. After all, there
really was a perfectly valid full grace period right after the call to
get_state_synchronize_rcu(), so why shouldn't poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
know about it?
This commit therefore makes the polled grace-period API aware of expedited
grace periods in addition to the normal grace periods that it is already
aware of. With this change, the above code is guaranteed not to splat.
Please note that the above code can still splat due to counter wrap on the
one hand and situations involving partially overlapping normal/expedited
grace periods on the other. On 64-bit systems, the second is of course
much more likely than the first. It is possible to modify this approach
to prevent overlapping grace periods from causing splats, but only at
the expense of greatly increasing the probability of counter wrap, as
in within milliseconds on 32-bit systems and within minutes on 64-bit
systems.

Currently, if the 'rcu_nocb_poll' kernel boot parameter is enabled, all
rcuog kthreads enter polling mode. However, if all of a given group
of rcuo kthreads correspond to CPUs that have been de-offloaded, the
corresponding rcuog kthread will nonetheless still wake up periodically,
unnecessarily consuming power and perturbing workloads. Fortunately,
this situation is easily detected by the fact that the rcuog kthread's
CPU's rcu_data structure's ->nocb_head_rdp list is empty.
This commit saves power and avoids unnecessarily perturbing workloads
by putting an rcuog kthread to sleep during any time period when all of
its rcuo kthreads' CPUs are de-offloaded.

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.

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

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/
$ ls

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
rcu_torture_writer().

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.

complete, and the amount of time can depend on the exact hardware and
software configuration. Some configurations boot up fast enough that the
RCU-Tasks verification process gets false-positive failures. This commit

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 commit takes off the training wheels and relies only on scanning
currently running tasks and tasks that have blocked or been preempted
within their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section.
Before this commit, the time complexity of an RCU Tasks Trace grace
period is O(T), where T is the number of tasks. After this commit,
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.

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.

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.

This commit adds checks within rcu_tasks_trace_pertask() to avoid
duplicate (and destructive) additions to the holdouts list. These checks
will be required later due to the possibility of a given task having
blocked while in an RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section, but now
running on a CPU.

This commit causes rcu_read_unlock_trace() to check for the current
task being on a per-CPU list within the rcu_tasks_percpu structure,
and removes it from that list if so. This has the effect of curtailing

This commit places any task that has ever blocked within its current
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section on a per-CPU list within the
rcu_tasks_percpu structure. Tasks are removed from this list when they
exit by the exit_tasks_rcu_finish_trace() function. The purpose of this
commit is to provide the information needed to eliminate the current
scan of the full task list.
This commit offsets the INT_MIN value for ->trc_reader_nesting with the
new nesting level in order to avoid queueing tasks that are exiting
their read-side critical sections.

When a CPU is offline, its idle task can appear to be running, but it
cannot be doing anything while CPU-hotplug operations are excluded.
This commit takes advantage of that fact by making trc_check_slow_task()

Currently, trc_inspect_reader() does one check for nesting less than

statement for transitioning from one nesting level to another or the

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
field, making it instead be a bit within the task_struct structure's
existing ->trc_reader_special.b.need_qs field. This commit also
atomically loads, stores, and checks the resulting combination of the
reader-checked and need-quiescent state flags. This will in turn allow
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
grace periods less CPU-intensive.

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

on the srcu's state in srcu_gp_start(). Either way, this initialization
overwrites the value used when sdp is defined.

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.

This allows building preemptible kernels without TASKS_RCU, if desired.

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,

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

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

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:

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,

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 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.

provide a Tasks RCU quiescent state when it interrupted a task executing

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.

When an srcu_struct structure is created (but not in a kernel module)
by DEFINE_SRCU() and friends, the per-CPU srcu_data structure is
statically allocated. In all other cases, that structure is obtained
from alloc_percpu(), in which case cleanup_srcu_struct() must invoke
free_percpu() on the resulting ->sda pointer in the srcu_struct pointer.
Which it does.
Except that it also invokes free_percpu() on the ->sda pointer
referencing the statically allocated per-CPU srcu_data structures.
Which free_percpu() is surprisingly OK with.
This commit nevertheless stops cleanup_srcu_struct() from freeing
statically allocated per-CPU srcu_data structures.

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
srcu_node arrays late in life.

This is just dead code at the moment, and will be used once
the state-transition code is activated.
Because srcu_barrier() must be aware of transition before call_srcu(), the
state machine waits for an SRCU grace period before callbacks are queued
to the non-CPU-0 queues. This requres that portions of srcu_barrier()
be enclosed in an SRCU read-side critical section.

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.

In some places, RCU code calls cpumask_weight() to check if any bit of a
given cpumask is set. We can do it more efficiently with cpumask_empty()
because cpumask_empty() stops traversing the cpumask as soon as it finds
first set bit, while cpumask_weight() counts all bits unconditionally.

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.

Currently rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore() releases rnp->boost_mtx
before reporting the expedited quiescent state. Under heavy real-time
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.

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.

Allow the rcu_nocbs kernel parameter to be specified just by itself,
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
specified at all, then not only are none of the CPUs offloaded at boot,
none of them can be offloaded at runtime, either.
While in the area, modernize the description of the "rcuo" kthreads'

Note that the rcuog and rcuoc kthreads are not created until at least
one of the corresponding CPUs comes online. This approach avoids the

the initialization path is still taken, running through all sorts of

Therefore, the nocb_cb_wait() kthread must be prepared to start running

this kthread from attempting to invoke callbacks before the corresponding

The nocb_gp_wait() function iterates over all CPUs in its group,
including even those CPUs that have been de-offloaded. This is of
course suboptimal, especially if none of the CPUs within the group are
currently offloaded. This will become even more of a problem once a
nocb kthread is created for all possible CPUs.
Therefore use a standard double linked list to link all the offloaded
rcu_data structures and safely add or delete these structure as we
offload or de-offload them, respectively.

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.

If the caller of of call_rcu_tasks(), call_rcu_tasks_rude(),
or call_rcu_tasks_trace() holds a raw spinlock, and then if
call_rcu_tasks_generic() determines that the grace-period kthread must
be awakened, then the wakeup might acquire a normal spinlock while a
raw spinlock is held. This results in lockdep splats when the
kernel is built with CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING=y.
This commit therefore defers the wakeup using irq_work_queue().

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.

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.

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.

Currently, rcu_advance_cbs_nowake() checks that a grace period is in
progress, however, that grace period could end just after the check.
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
to have a CPU that has not yet passed through its quiescent state.

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:

preemptible RCU's expedited grace periods use other mechanisms to record
