rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Make rcu_nocb_poll an early_param instead of module_param
The as-documented rcu_nocb_poll will fail to enable this feature
for two reasons. (1) there is an extra "s" in the documented
name which is not in the code, and (2) since it uses module_param,
it really is expecting a prefix, akin to "rcutree.fanout_leaf"
and the prefix isn't documented.
However, there are several reasons why we might not want to
simply fix the typo and add the prefix:
1) we'd end up with rcutree.rcu_nocb_poll, and rather probably make
a change to rcutree.nocb_poll
2) if we did #1, then the prefix wouldn't be consistent with the
rcu_nocbs=<cpumap> parameter (i.e. one with, one without prefix)
3) the use of module_param in a header file is less than desired,
since it isn't immediately obvious that it will get processed
via rcutree.c and get the prefix from that (although use of
module_param_named() could clarify that.)
4) the implied export of /sys/module/rcutree/parameters/rcu_nocb_poll
data to userspace via module_param() doesn't really buy us anything,
as it is read-only and we can tell if it is enabled already without
it, since there is a printk at early boot telling us so.
In light of all that, just change it from a module_param() to an
early_setup() call, and worry about adding it to /sys later on if
we decide to allow a dynamic setting of it.
Also change the variable to be tagged as read_mostly, since it
will only ever be fiddled with at most, once at boot.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: refactor RCU's context-switch handling
The addition of preemptible RCU to treercu resulted in a bit of
confusion and inefficiency surrounding the handling of context switches
for RCU-sched and for RCU-preempt. For RCU-sched, a context switch
is a quiescent state, pure and simple, just like it always has been.
For RCU-preempt, a context switch is in no way a quiescent state, but
special handling is required when a task blocks in an RCU read-side
critical section.
However, the callout from the scheduler and the outer loop in ksoftirqd
still calls something named rcu_sched_qs(), whose name is no longer
accurate. Furthermore, when rcu_check_callbacks() notes an RCU-sched
quiescent state, it ends up unnecessarily (though harmlessly, aside
from the performance hit) enqueuing the current task if it happens to
be running in an RCU-preempt read-side critical section. This not only
increases the maximum latency of scheduler_tick(), it also needlessly
increases the overhead of the next outermost rcu_read_unlock() invocation.
This patch addresses this situation by separating the notion of RCU's
context-switch handling from that of RCU-sched's quiescent states.
The context-switch handling is covered by rcu_note_context_switch() in
general and by rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() for preemptible RCU.
This permits rcu_sched_qs() to handle quiescent states and only quiescent
states. It also reduces the maximum latency of scheduler_tick(), though
probably by much less than a microsecond. Finally, it means that tasks
within preemptible-RCU read-side critical sections avoid incurring the
overhead of queuing unless there really is a context switch.

rcu: protect __rcu_read_unlock() against scheduler-using irq handlers
The addition of RCU read-side critical sections within runqueue and
priority-inheritance lock critical sections introduced some deadlock
cycles, for example, involving interrupts from __rcu_read_unlock()
where the interrupt handlers call wake_up(). This situation can cause
the instance of __rcu_read_unlock() invoked from interrupt to do some
of the processing that would otherwise have been carried out by the
task-level instance of __rcu_read_unlock(). When the interrupt-level
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is called with a scheduler lock held
from interrupt-entry/exit situations where in_irq() returns false,
deadlock can result.
This commit resolves these deadlocks by using negative values of
the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter to indicate that an
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is in flight, which in turn prevents
instances from interrupt handlers from doing any special processing.
This patch is inspired by Steven Rostedt's earlier patch that similarly
made __rcu_read_unlock() guard against interrupt-mediated recursion
(see https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/15/326), but this commit refines
Steven's approach to avoid the need for preemption disabling on the
__rcu_read_unlock() fastpath and to also avoid the need for manipulating
a separate per-CPU variable.
This patch avoids need for preempt_disable() by instead using negative
values of the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter. Note that nested
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs are still permitted, but they will
never see ->rcu_read_lock_nesting go to zero, and will therefore never
invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(), thus preventing them from seeing the
RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit should it be set in ->rcu_read_unlock_special.
This patch also adds a check for ->rcu_read_unlock_special being negative
in rcu_check_callbacks(), thus preventing the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_NEED_QS
bit from being set should a scheduling-clock interrupt occur while
__rcu_read_unlock() is exiting from an outermost RCU read-side critical
section.
Of course, __rcu_read_unlock() can be preempted during the time that
->rcu_read_lock_nesting is negative. This could result in the setting
of the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit after __rcu_read_unlock() checks it,
and would also result it this task being queued on the corresponding
rcu_node structure's blkd_tasks list. Therefore, some later RCU read-side
critical section would enter rcu_read_unlock_special() to clean up --
which could result in deadlock if that critical section happened to be in
the scheduler where the runqueue or priority-inheritance locks were held.
This situation is dealt with by making rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
check for negative ->rcu_read_lock_nesting, thus refraining from
queuing the task (and from setting RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED) if we are
already exiting from the outermost RCU read-side critical section (in
other words, we really are no longer actually in that RCU read-side
critical section). In addition, rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
invokes rcu_read_unlock_special() to carry out the cleanup in this case,
which clears out the ->rcu_read_unlock_special bits and dequeues the task
(if necessary), in turn avoiding needless delay of the current RCU grace
period and needless RCU priority boosting.
It is still illegal to call rcu_read_unlock() while holding a scheduler
lock if the prior RCU read-side critical section has ever had either
preemption or irqs enabled. However, the common use case is legal,
namely where then entire RCU read-side critical section executes with
irqs disabled, for example, when the scheduler lock is held across the
entire lifetime of the RCU read-side critical section.

rcu: Process offlining and onlining only at grace-period start
Races between CPU hotplug and grace periods can be difficult to resolve,
so the ->onoff_mutex is used to exclude the two events. Unfortunately,
this means that it is impossible for an outgoing CPU to perform the
last bits of its offlining from its last pass through the idle loop,
because sleeplocks cannot be acquired in that context.
This commit avoids these problems by buffering online and offline events
in a new ->qsmaskinitnext field in the leaf rcu_node structures. When a
grace period starts, the events accumulated in this mask are applied to
the ->qsmaskinit field, and, if needed, up the rcu_node tree. The special
case of all CPUs corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node structure being
offline while there are still elements in that structure's ->blkd_tasks
list is handled using a new ->wait_blkd_tasks field. In this case,
propagating the offline bits up the tree is deferred until the beginning
of the grace period after all of the tasks have exited their RCU read-side
critical sections and removed themselves from the list, at which point
the ->wait_blkd_tasks flag is cleared. If one of that leaf rcu_node
structure's CPUs comes back online before the list empties, then the
->wait_blkd_tasks flag is simply cleared.
This of course means that RCU's notion of which CPUs are offline can be
out of date. This is OK because RCU need only wait on CPUs that were
online at the time that the grace period started. In addition, RCU's
force-quiescent-state actions will handle the case where a CPU goes
offline after the grace period starts.

rcu: Defer reporting RCU-preempt quiescent states when disabled
This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Fix grace-period-stall bug on large systems with CPU hotplug
When the last CPU of a given leaf rcu_node structure goes
offline, all of the tasks queued on that leaf rcu_node structure
(due to having blocked in their current RCU read-side critical
sections) are requeued onto the root rcu_node structure. This
requeuing is carried out by rcu_preempt_offline_tasks().
However, it is possible that these queued tasks are the only
thing preventing the leaf rcu_node structure from reporting a
quiescent state up the rcu_node hierarchy. Unfortunately, the
old code would fail to do this reporting, resulting in a
grace-period stall given the following sequence of events:
1. Kernel built for more than 32 CPUs on 32-bit systems or for more
than 64 CPUs on 64-bit systems, so that there is more than one
rcu_node structure. (Or CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT is artificially set
to a number smaller than CONFIG_NR_CPUS.)
2. The kernel is built with CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU.
3. A task running on a CPU associated with a given leaf rcu_node
structure blocks while in an RCU read-side critical section
-and- that CPU has not yet passed through a quiescent state
for the current RCU grace period. This will cause the task
to be queued on the leaf rcu_node's blocked_tasks[] array, in
particular, on the element of this array corresponding to the
current grace period.
4. Each of the remaining CPUs corresponding to this same leaf rcu_node
structure pass through a quiescent state. However, the task is
still in its RCU read-side critical section, so these quiescent
states cannot be reported further up the rcu_node hierarchy.
Nevertheless, all bits in the leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask
field are now zero.
5. Each of the remaining CPUs go offline. (The events in step
#4 and #5 can happen in any order as long as each CPU passes
through a quiescent state before going offline.)
6. When the last CPU goes offline, __rcu_offline_cpu() will invoke
rcu_preempt_offline_tasks(), which will move the task to the
root rcu_node structure, but without reporting a quiescent state
up the rcu_node hierarchy (and this failure to report a quiescent
state is the bug).
But because this leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask field is
already zero and its ->block_tasks[] entries are all empty,
force_quiescent_state() will skip this rcu_node structure.
Therefore, grace periods are now hung.
This patch abstracts some code out of rcu_read_unlock_special(),
calling the result task_quiet() by analogy with cpu_quiet(), and
invokes task_quiet() from both rcu_read_lock_special() and
__rcu_offline_cpu(). Invoking task_quiet() from
__rcu_offline_cpu() reports the quiescent state up the rcu_node
hierarchy, fixing the bug. This ends up requiring a separate
lock_class_key per level of the rcu_node hierarchy, which this
patch also provides.

rcu: Defer reporting RCU-preempt quiescent states when disabled
This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Defer reporting RCU-preempt quiescent states when disabled
This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

rcu: Clear need_qs flag to prevent splat
If the scheduling-clock interrupt sets the current tasks need_qs flag,
but if the current CPU passes through a quiescent state in the meantime,
then rcu_preempt_qs() will fail to clear the need_qs flag, which can fool
RCU into thinking that additional rcu_read_unlock_special() processing
is needed. This commit therefore clears the need_qs flag before checking
for additional processing.
For this problem to occur, we need rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce equal
to true and current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs also equal to true.
This condition can occur as follows:
1. CPU 0 is aware of the current preemptible RCU grace period,
but has not yet passed through a quiescent state. Among other
things, this means that rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is false.
2. Task A running on CPU 0 enters a preemptible RCU read-side
critical section.
3. CPU 0 takes a scheduling-clock interrupt, which notices the
RCU read-side critical section and the need for a quiescent state,
and thus sets current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs to true.
4. Task A is preempted, enters the scheduler, eventually invoking
rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() which in turn invokes
rcu_preempt_qs().
Because rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is false,
control enters the body of the "if" statement, which sets
rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce to true.
5. At this point, CPU 0 takes an interrupt. The interrupt
handler contains an RCU read-side critical section, and
the rcu_read_unlock() notes that current->rcu_read_unlock_special
is nonzero, and thus invokes rcu_read_unlock_special().
6. Once in rcu_read_unlock_special(), the fact that
current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs is true becomes
apparent, so rcu_read_unlock_special() invokes rcu_preempt_qs().
Recursively, given that we interrupted out of that same
function in the preceding step.
7. Because rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is now true,
rcu_preempt_qs() does nothing, and simply returns.
8. Upon return to rcu_read_unlock_special(), it is noted that
current->rcu_read_unlock_special is still nonzero (because
the interrupted rcu_preempt_qs() had not yet gotten around
to clearing current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs).
9. Execution proceeds to the WARN_ON_ONCE(), which notes that
we are in an interrupt handler and thus duly splats.
The solution, as noted above, is to make rcu_read_unlock_special()
clear out current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs after calling
rcu_preempt_qs(). The interrupted rcu_preempt_qs() will clear it again,
but this is harmless. The worst that happens is that we clobber another
attempt to set this field, but this is not a problem because we just
got done reporting a quiescent state.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Fix grace-period-stall bug on large systems with CPU hotplug
When the last CPU of a given leaf rcu_node structure goes
offline, all of the tasks queued on that leaf rcu_node structure
(due to having blocked in their current RCU read-side critical
sections) are requeued onto the root rcu_node structure. This
requeuing is carried out by rcu_preempt_offline_tasks().
However, it is possible that these queued tasks are the only
thing preventing the leaf rcu_node structure from reporting a
quiescent state up the rcu_node hierarchy. Unfortunately, the
old code would fail to do this reporting, resulting in a
grace-period stall given the following sequence of events:
1. Kernel built for more than 32 CPUs on 32-bit systems or for more
than 64 CPUs on 64-bit systems, so that there is more than one
rcu_node structure. (Or CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT is artificially set
to a number smaller than CONFIG_NR_CPUS.)
2. The kernel is built with CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU.
3. A task running on a CPU associated with a given leaf rcu_node
structure blocks while in an RCU read-side critical section
-and- that CPU has not yet passed through a quiescent state
for the current RCU grace period. This will cause the task
to be queued on the leaf rcu_node's blocked_tasks[] array, in
particular, on the element of this array corresponding to the
current grace period.
4. Each of the remaining CPUs corresponding to this same leaf rcu_node
structure pass through a quiescent state. However, the task is
still in its RCU read-side critical section, so these quiescent
states cannot be reported further up the rcu_node hierarchy.
Nevertheless, all bits in the leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask
field are now zero.
5. Each of the remaining CPUs go offline. (The events in step
#4 and #5 can happen in any order as long as each CPU passes
through a quiescent state before going offline.)
6. When the last CPU goes offline, __rcu_offline_cpu() will invoke
rcu_preempt_offline_tasks(), which will move the task to the
root rcu_node structure, but without reporting a quiescent state
up the rcu_node hierarchy (and this failure to report a quiescent
state is the bug).
But because this leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask field is
already zero and its ->block_tasks[] entries are all empty,
force_quiescent_state() will skip this rcu_node structure.
Therefore, grace periods are now hung.
This patch abstracts some code out of rcu_read_unlock_special(),
calling the result task_quiet() by analogy with cpu_quiet(), and
invokes task_quiet() from both rcu_read_lock_special() and
__rcu_offline_cpu(). Invoking task_quiet() from
__rcu_offline_cpu() reports the quiescent state up the rcu_node
hierarchy, fixing the bug. This ends up requiring a separate
lock_class_key per level of the rcu_node hierarchy, which this
patch also provides.

rcu: Defer reporting RCU-preempt quiescent states when disabled
This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Suppress false-positive splats from mid-init task resume
Consider the following sequence of events in a PREEMPT=y kernel:
1. All CPUs corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node structure are
offline.
2. The first phase of the rcu_gp_init() function's grace-period
initialization runs, and sets that rcu_node structure's
->qsmaskinit to zero, as it should.
3. One of the CPUs corresponding to that rcu_node structure comes
back online. Note that because this CPU came online after the
grace period started, this grace period can safely ignore this
newly onlined CPU.
4. A task running on the newly onlined CPU enters an RCU-preempt
read-side critical section, and is then preempted. Because
the corresponding rcu_node structure's ->qsmask is zero,
rcu_preempt_ctxt_queue() leaves the rcu_node structure's
->gp_tasks field NULL, as it should.
5. The rcu_gp_init() function continues running the second phase of
grace-period initialization. The ->qsmask field of the parent of
the aforementioned leaf rcu_node structure is set to not expect
a quiescent state from the leaf, as is only right and proper.
However, when rcu_gp_init() reaches the leaf, it invokes
rcu_preempt_check_blocked_tasks(), which sees that the leaf's
->blkd_tasks list is non-empty, and therefore sets the leaf's
->gp_tasks field to reference the first task on that list.
6. The grace period ends before the preempted task resumes, which
is perfectly fine, given that this grace period was under no
obligation to wait for that task to exit its late-starting
RCU-preempt read-side critical section. Unfortunately, the
leaf's ->gp_tasks field is non-NULL, so rcu_gp_cleanup() splats.
After all, it appears to rcu_gp_cleanup() that the grace period
failed to wait for a task that was supposed to be blocking that
grace period.
This commit avoids this false-positive splat by adding a check of both
->qsmaskinit and ->wait_blkd_tasks to rcu_preempt_check_blocked_tasks().
If both ->qsmaskinit and ->wait_blkd_tasks are zero, then the task must
have entered its RCU-preempt read-side critical section late (after all,
the CPU that it is running on was not online at that time), which means
that the upper-level rcu_node structure won't be waiting for anything
on the leaf anyway.
If ->wait_blkd_tasks is non-zero, then there is at least one task on
ths rcu_node structure's ->blkd_tasks list whose RCU read-side
critical section predates the current grace period. If ->qsmaskinit
is non-zero, there is at least one CPU that was online at the start
of the current grace period. Thus, if both are zero, there is nothing
to wait for.

rcu: Defer reporting RCU-preempt quiescent states when disabled
This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

rcu: protect __rcu_read_unlock() against scheduler-using irq handlers
The addition of RCU read-side critical sections within runqueue and
priority-inheritance lock critical sections introduced some deadlock
cycles, for example, involving interrupts from __rcu_read_unlock()
where the interrupt handlers call wake_up(). This situation can cause
the instance of __rcu_read_unlock() invoked from interrupt to do some
of the processing that would otherwise have been carried out by the
task-level instance of __rcu_read_unlock(). When the interrupt-level
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is called with a scheduler lock held
from interrupt-entry/exit situations where in_irq() returns false,
deadlock can result.
This commit resolves these deadlocks by using negative values of
the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter to indicate that an
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is in flight, which in turn prevents
instances from interrupt handlers from doing any special processing.
This patch is inspired by Steven Rostedt's earlier patch that similarly
made __rcu_read_unlock() guard against interrupt-mediated recursion
(see https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/15/326), but this commit refines
Steven's approach to avoid the need for preemption disabling on the
__rcu_read_unlock() fastpath and to also avoid the need for manipulating
a separate per-CPU variable.
This patch avoids need for preempt_disable() by instead using negative
values of the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter. Note that nested
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs are still permitted, but they will
never see ->rcu_read_lock_nesting go to zero, and will therefore never
invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(), thus preventing them from seeing the
RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit should it be set in ->rcu_read_unlock_special.
This patch also adds a check for ->rcu_read_unlock_special being negative
in rcu_check_callbacks(), thus preventing the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_NEED_QS
bit from being set should a scheduling-clock interrupt occur while
__rcu_read_unlock() is exiting from an outermost RCU read-side critical
section.
Of course, __rcu_read_unlock() can be preempted during the time that
->rcu_read_lock_nesting is negative. This could result in the setting
of the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit after __rcu_read_unlock() checks it,
and would also result it this task being queued on the corresponding
rcu_node structure's blkd_tasks list. Therefore, some later RCU read-side
critical section would enter rcu_read_unlock_special() to clean up --
which could result in deadlock if that critical section happened to be in
the scheduler where the runqueue or priority-inheritance locks were held.
This situation is dealt with by making rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
check for negative ->rcu_read_lock_nesting, thus refraining from
queuing the task (and from setting RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED) if we are
already exiting from the outermost RCU read-side critical section (in
other words, we really are no longer actually in that RCU read-side
critical section). In addition, rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
invokes rcu_read_unlock_special() to carry out the cleanup in this case,
which clears out the ->rcu_read_unlock_special bits and dequeues the task
(if necessary), in turn avoiding needless delay of the current RCU grace
period and needless RCU priority boosting.
It is still illegal to call rcu_read_unlock() while holding a scheduler
lock if the prior RCU read-side critical section has ever had either
preemption or irqs enabled. However, the common use case is legal,
namely where then entire RCU read-side critical section executes with
irqs disabled, for example, when the scheduler lock is held across the
entire lifetime of the RCU read-side critical section.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Narrow early boot window of illegal synchronous grace periods
The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases
during bootup. In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running
with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period.
In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has
not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods,
workqueues are not yet running. During this time, any attempt to do
a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly,
depending). In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and
everything works normally.
This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some
synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase.
This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon
as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit
8b355e3bc140 ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue").
Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject
to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods
to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs
parameter). The callchain from the failure case is as follows:
early_amd_iommu_init()
|-> acpi_put_table(ivrs_base);
|-> acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc);
|-> acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc);
|-> acpi_tb_release_table(...)
|-> acpi_os_unmap_memory
|-> acpi_os_unmap_iomem
|-> acpi_os_map_cleanup
|-> synchronize_rcu_expedited
The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y,
which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were
initialized, which did not go well.
This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods
to proceed during this mid-boot phase. This commit is therefore a
fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put
forward post-merge-window in v4.10.
This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting()
function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited
path. The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task
to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase.
Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named
rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used.
Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals
(or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned
through core_initcall() time.

rcu: Defer reporting RCU-preempt quiescent states when disabled
This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and

might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected

Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Fix grace-period-stall bug on large systems with CPU hotplug
When the last CPU of a given leaf rcu_node structure goes
offline, all of the tasks queued on that leaf rcu_node structure
(due to having blocked in their current RCU read-side critical
sections) are requeued onto the root rcu_node structure. This
requeuing is carried out by rcu_preempt_offline_tasks().
However, it is possible that these queued tasks are the only
thing preventing the leaf rcu_node structure from reporting a
quiescent state up the rcu_node hierarchy. Unfortunately, the
old code would fail to do this reporting, resulting in a
grace-period stall given the following sequence of events:
1. Kernel built for more than 32 CPUs on 32-bit systems or for more
than 64 CPUs on 64-bit systems, so that there is more than one
rcu_node structure. (Or CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT is artificially set
to a number smaller than CONFIG_NR_CPUS.)
2. The kernel is built with CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU.
3. A task running on a CPU associated with a given leaf rcu_node
structure blocks while in an RCU read-side critical section
-and- that CPU has not yet passed through a quiescent state
for the current RCU grace period. This will cause the task
to be queued on the leaf rcu_node's blocked_tasks[] array, in
particular, on the element of this array corresponding to the
current grace period.
4. Each of the remaining CPUs corresponding to this same leaf rcu_node
structure pass through a quiescent state. However, the task is
still in its RCU read-side critical section, so these quiescent
states cannot be reported further up the rcu_node hierarchy.
Nevertheless, all bits in the leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask
field are now zero.
5. Each of the remaining CPUs go offline. (The events in step
#4 and #5 can happen in any order as long as each CPU passes
through a quiescent state before going offline.)
6. When the last CPU goes offline, __rcu_offline_cpu() will invoke
rcu_preempt_offline_tasks(), which will move the task to the
root rcu_node structure, but without reporting a quiescent state
up the rcu_node hierarchy (and this failure to report a quiescent
state is the bug).
But because this leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask field is
already zero and its ->block_tasks[] entries are all empty,
force_quiescent_state() will skip this rcu_node structure.
Therefore, grace periods are now hung.
This patch abstracts some code out of rcu_read_unlock_special(),
calling the result task_quiet() by analogy with cpu_quiet(), and
invokes task_quiet() from both rcu_read_lock_special() and
__rcu_offline_cpu(). Invoking task_quiet() from
__rcu_offline_cpu() reports the quiescent state up the rcu_node
hierarchy, fixing the bug. This ends up requiring a separate
lock_class_key per level of the rcu_node hierarchy, which this
patch also provides.

rcu: Defer reporting RCU-preempt quiescent states when disabled
This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU
Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

rcu: Replace __get_cpu_var() uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One
of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This
calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the
current processor based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However,
store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global
register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into
a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per
cpu variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations
that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided and less
registers are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed
so the macro is removed too.
The patchset includes passes over all arches as well. Once these
operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in
non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using
a global register that may be set to the per cpu base.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, u);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(this_cpu_ptr(&x), y, sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
this_cpu_inc(y)

rcu: Process offlining and onlining only at grace-period start
Races between CPU hotplug and grace periods can be difficult to resolve,
so the ->onoff_mutex is used to exclude the two events. Unfortunately,
this means that it is impossible for an outgoing CPU to perform the
last bits of its offlining from its last pass through the idle loop,
because sleeplocks cannot be acquired in that context.
This commit avoids these problems by buffering online and offline events
in a new ->qsmaskinitnext field in the leaf rcu_node structures. When a
grace period starts, the events accumulated in this mask are applied to
the ->qsmaskinit field, and, if needed, up the rcu_node tree. The special
case of all CPUs corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node structure being
offline while there are still elements in that structure's ->blkd_tasks
list is handled using a new ->wait_blkd_tasks field. In this case,
propagating the offline bits up the tree is deferred until the beginning
of the grace period after all of the tasks have exited their RCU read-side
critical sections and removed themselves from the list, at which point
the ->wait_blkd_tasks flag is cleared. If one of that leaf rcu_node
structure's CPUs comes back online before the list empties, then the
->wait_blkd_tasks flag is simply cleared.
This of course means that RCU's notion of which CPUs are offline can be
out of date. This is OK because RCU need only wait on CPUs that were
online at the time that the grace period started. In addition, RCU's
force-quiescent-state actions will handle the case where a CPU goes
offline after the grace period starts.

rcu: Replace __get_cpu_var() uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One
of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This
calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the
current processor based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However,
store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global
register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into
a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per
cpu variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations
that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided and less
registers are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed
so the macro is removed too.
The patchset includes passes over all arches as well. Once these
operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in
non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using
a global register that may be set to the per cpu base.

rcu: Correctly handle sparse possible cpus
In many cases in the RCU tree code, we iterate over the set of cpus for
a leaf node described by rcu_node::grplo and rcu_node::grphi, checking
per-cpu data for each cpu in this range. However, if the set of possible
cpus is sparse, some cpus described in this range are not possible, and
thus no per-cpu region will have been allocated (or initialised) for
them by the generic percpu code.
Erroneous accesses to a per-cpu area for these !possible cpus may fault
or may hit other data depending on the addressed generated when the
erroneous per cpu offset is applied. In practice, both cases have been
observed on arm64 hardware (the former being silent, but detectable with
additional patches).
To avoid issues resulting from this, we must iterate over the set of
*possible* cpus for a given leaf node. This patch add a new helper,
for_each_leaf_node_possible_cpu, to enable this. As iteration is often
intertwined with rcu_node local bitmask manipulation, a new
leaf_node_cpu_bit helper is added to make this simpler and more
consistent. The RCU tree code is made to use both of these where
appropriate.
Without this patch, running reboot at a shell can result in an oops

rcu: Permit dyntick-idle with callbacks pending
The current implementation of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ prevents CPUs from entering
dyntick-idle state if they have RCU callbacks pending. Unfortunately,
this has the side-effect of often preventing them from entering this
state, especially if at least one other CPU is not in dyntick-idle state.
However, the resulting per-tick wakeup is wasteful in many cases: if the
CPU has already fully responded to the current RCU grace period, there
will be nothing for it to do until this grace period ends, which will
frequently take several jiffies.
This commit therefore permits a CPU that has done everything that the
current grace period has asked of it (rcu_pending() == 0) even if it
still as RCU callbacks pending. However, such a CPU posts a timer to
wake it up several jiffies later (6 jiffies, based on experience with
grace-period lengths). This wakeup is required to handle situations
that can result in all CPUs being in dyntick-idle mode, thus failing
to ever complete the current grace period. If a CPU wakes up before
the timer goes off, then it cancels that timer, thus avoiding spurious
wakeups.

rcu: Precompute RCU_FAST_NO_HZ timer offsets
When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the
next wakeup time based on the timer wheels. Only later, when actually
entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked. In some
cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up.
But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been
computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup
time to be recomputed. This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have
no effect.
This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake
up the CPU soon enough. However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU
might stay asleep for a considerable length of time. If that CPU has
a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might
run very slowly or (in theory) even hang.
This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU
to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account
when programming the CPU's wakeup time. An alternative approach is
for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers,
but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently
and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly
what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

rcu: Precompute RCU_FAST_NO_HZ timer offsets
When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the
next wakeup time based on the timer wheels. Only later, when actually
entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked. In some
cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up.
But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been
computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup
time to be recomputed. This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have
no effect.
This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake
up the CPU soon enough. However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU
might stay asleep for a considerable length of time. If that CPU has
a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might
run very slowly or (in theory) even hang.
This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU
to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account
when programming the CPU's wakeup time. An alternative approach is
for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers,
but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently
and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly
what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

rcu: Make callers awaken grace-period kthread
The rcu_start_gp_advanced() function currently uses irq_work_queue()
to defer wakeups of the RCU grace-period kthread. This deferring
is necessary to avoid RCU-scheduler deadlocks involving the rcu_node
structure's lock, meaning that RCU cannot call any of the scheduler's
wake-up functions while holding one of these locks.
Unfortunately, the second and subsequent calls to irq_work_queue() are
ignored, and the first call will be ignored (aside from queuing the work
item) if the scheduler-clock tick is turned off. This is OK for many
uses, especially those where irq_work_queue() is called from an interrupt
or softirq handler, because in those cases the scheduler-clock-tick state
will be re-evaluated, which will turn the scheduler-clock tick back on.
On the next tick, any deferred work will then be processed.
However, this strategy does not always work for RCU, which can be invoked
at process level from idle CPUs. In this case, the tick might never
be turned back on, indefinitely defering a grace-period start request.
Note that the RCU CPU stall detector cannot see this condition, because
there is no RCU grace period in progress. Therefore, we can (and do!)
see long tens-of-seconds stalls in grace-period handling. In theory,
we could see a full grace-period hang, but rcutorture testing to date
has seen only the tens-of-seconds stalls. Event tracing demonstrates
that irq_work_queue() is being called repeatedly to no effect during
these stalls: The "newreq" event appears repeatedly from a task that is
not one of the grace-period kthreads.
In theory, irq_work_queue() might be fixed to avoid this sort of issue,
but RCU's requirements are unusual and it is quite straightforward to pass
wake-up responsibility up through RCU's call chain, so that the wakeup
happens when the offending locks are released.
This commit therefore makes this change. The rcu_start_gp_advanced(),
rcu_start_future_gp(), rcu_accelerate_cbs(), rcu_advance_cbs(),
__note_gp_changes(), and rcu_start_gp() functions now return a boolean
which indicates when a wake-up is needed. A new rcu_gp_kthread_wake()
does the wakeup when it is necessary and safe to do so: No self-wakes,
no wake-ups if the ->gp_flags field indicates there is no need (as in
someone else did the wake-up before we got around to it), and no wake-ups
before the grace-period kthread has been created.

rcu: Print stall-warning NMI dyntick state in hexadecimal
The ->dynticks_nmi_nesting field records the nesting depth of both
interrupt and NMI handlers. Because the kernel can enter interrupts
and never leave them (and vice versa) and because NMIs can interrupt
manipulation of the ->dynticks_nmi_nesting field, the values in this
field must be both chosen and maniupated very carefully. As a result,
although the value is zero when the corresponding CPU is executing
neither an interrupt nor an NMI handler, it is 4,611,686,018,427,387,906
on 64-bit systems when there is a single level of interrupt/NMI handling
in progress.
This number is difficult to remember and interpret, so this commit
switches the output to hexadecimal, resulting in the much nicer
0x4000000000000002.

rcu: Make rcu_nocb_poll an early_param instead of module_param
The as-documented rcu_nocb_poll will fail to enable this feature
for two reasons. (1) there is an extra "s" in the documented
name which is not in the code, and (2) since it uses module_param,
it really is expecting a prefix, akin to "rcutree.fanout_leaf"
and the prefix isn't documented.
However, there are several reasons why we might not want to
simply fix the typo and add the prefix:
1) we'd end up with rcutree.rcu_nocb_poll, and rather probably make
a change to rcutree.nocb_poll
2) if we did #1, then the prefix wouldn't be consistent with the
rcu_nocbs=<cpumap> parameter (i.e. one with, one without prefix)
3) the use of module_param in a header file is less than desired,
since it isn't immediately obvious that it will get processed
via rcutree.c and get the prefix from that (although use of
module_param_named() could clarify that.)
4) the implied export of /sys/module/rcutree/parameters/rcu_nocb_poll
data to userspace via module_param() doesn't really buy us anything,
as it is read-only and we can tell if it is enabled already without
it, since there is a printk at early boot telling us so.
In light of all that, just change it from a module_param() to an
early_setup() call, and worry about adding it to /sys later on if
we decide to allow a dynamic setting of it.
Also change the variable to be tagged as read_mostly, since it
will only ever be fiddled with at most, once at boot.

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers
at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79
wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system.

rcu: Make rcu_barrier() understand about missing rcuo kthreads
Commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs)
avoids creating rcuo kthreads for CPUs that never come online. This
fixes a bug in many instances of firmware: Instead of lying about their
age, these systems instead lie about the number of CPUs that they have.
Before commit 35ce7f29a44a, this could result in huge numbers of useless
rcuo kthreads being created.
It appears that experience indicates that I should have told the
people suffering from this problem to fix their broken firmware, but
I instead produced what turned out to be a partial fix. The missing
piece supplied by this commit makes sure that rcu_barrier() knows not to
post callbacks for no-CBs CPUs that have not yet come online, because
otherwise rcu_barrier() will hang on systems having firmware that lies
about the number of CPUs.
It is tempting to simply have rcu_barrier() refuse to post a callback on
any no-CBs CPU that does not have an rcuo kthread. This unfortunately
does not work because rcu_barrier() is required to wait for all pending
callbacks. It is therefore required to wait even for those callbacks
that cannot possibly be invoked. Even if doing so hangs the system.
Given that posting a callback to a no-CBs CPU that does not yet have an
rcuo kthread can hang rcu_barrier(), It is tempting to report an error
in this case. Unfortunately, this will result in false positives at
boot time, when it is perfectly legal to post callbacks to the boot CPU
before the scheduler has started, in other words, before it is legal
to invoke rcu_barrier().
So this commit instead has rcu_barrier() avoid posting callbacks to
CPUs having neither rcuo kthread nor pending callbacks, and has it
complain bitterly if it finds CPUs having no rcuo kthread but some
pending callbacks. And when rcu_barrier() does find CPUs having no rcuo
kthread but pending callbacks, as noted earlier, it has no choice but
to hang indefinitely.

rcu: Make rcu_barrier() understand about missing rcuo kthreads
Commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs)
avoids creating rcuo kthreads for CPUs that never come online. This
fixes a bug in many instances of firmware: Instead of lying about their
age, these systems instead lie about the number of CPUs that they have.
Before commit 35ce7f29a44a, this could result in huge numbers of useless
rcuo kthreads being created.
It appears that experience indicates that I should have told the
people suffering from this problem to fix their broken firmware, but
I instead produced what turned out to be a partial fix. The missing
piece supplied by this commit makes sure that rcu_barrier() knows not to
post callbacks for no-CBs CPUs that have not yet come online, because
otherwise rcu_barrier() will hang on systems having firmware that lies
about the number of CPUs.
It is tempting to simply have rcu_barrier() refuse to post a callback on
any no-CBs CPU that does not have an rcuo kthread. This unfortunately
does not work because rcu_barrier() is required to wait for all pending
callbacks. It is therefore required to wait even for those callbacks
that cannot possibly be invoked. Even if doing so hangs the system.
Given that posting a callback to a no-CBs CPU that does not yet have an
rcuo kthread can hang rcu_barrier(), It is tempting to report an error
in this case. Unfortunately, this will result in false positives at
boot time, when it is perfectly legal to post callbacks to the boot CPU
before the scheduler has started, in other words, before it is legal
to invoke rcu_barrier().
So this commit instead has rcu_barrier() avoid posting callbacks to
CPUs having neither rcuo kthread nor pending callbacks, and has it
complain bitterly if it finds CPUs having no rcuo kthread but some
pending callbacks. And when rcu_barrier() does find CPUs having no rcuo
kthread but pending callbacks, as noted earlier, it has no choice but
to hang indefinitely.

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers
at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79
wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system.

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers
at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79
wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system.

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

rcu: Make callers awaken grace-period kthread
The rcu_start_gp_advanced() function currently uses irq_work_queue()
to defer wakeups of the RCU grace-period kthread. This deferring
is necessary to avoid RCU-scheduler deadlocks involving the rcu_node
structure's lock, meaning that RCU cannot call any of the scheduler's
wake-up functions while holding one of these locks.
Unfortunately, the second and subsequent calls to irq_work_queue() are
ignored, and the first call will be ignored (aside from queuing the work
item) if the scheduler-clock tick is turned off. This is OK for many
uses, especially those where irq_work_queue() is called from an interrupt
or softirq handler, because in those cases the scheduler-clock-tick state
will be re-evaluated, which will turn the scheduler-clock tick back on.
On the next tick, any deferred work will then be processed.
However, this strategy does not always work for RCU, which can be invoked
at process level from idle CPUs. In this case, the tick might never
be turned back on, indefinitely defering a grace-period start request.
Note that the RCU CPU stall detector cannot see this condition, because
there is no RCU grace period in progress. Therefore, we can (and do!)
see long tens-of-seconds stalls in grace-period handling. In theory,
we could see a full grace-period hang, but rcutorture testing to date
has seen only the tens-of-seconds stalls. Event tracing demonstrates
that irq_work_queue() is being called repeatedly to no effect during
these stalls: The "newreq" event appears repeatedly from a task that is
not one of the grace-period kthreads.
In theory, irq_work_queue() might be fixed to avoid this sort of issue,
but RCU's requirements are unusual and it is quite straightforward to pass
wake-up responsibility up through RCU's call chain, so that the wakeup
happens when the offending locks are released.
This commit therefore makes this change. The rcu_start_gp_advanced(),
rcu_start_future_gp(), rcu_accelerate_cbs(), rcu_advance_cbs(),
__note_gp_changes(), and rcu_start_gp() functions now return a boolean
which indicates when a wake-up is needed. A new rcu_gp_kthread_wake()
does the wakeup when it is necessary and safe to do so: No self-wakes,
no wake-ups if the ->gp_flags field indicates there is no need (as in
someone else did the wake-up before we got around to it), and no wake-ups
before the grace-period kthread has been created.

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers

Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers
at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79
wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system.

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers
at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79
wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system.

This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers
at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79
wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system.

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders

srcu: Abstract multi-tail callback list handling
RCU has only one multi-tail callback list, which is implemented via
the nxtlist, nxttail, nxtcompleted, qlen_lazy, and qlen fields in the
rcu_data structure, and whose operations are open-code throughout the
Tree RCU implementation. This has been more or less OK in the past,
but upcoming callback-list optimizations in SRCU could really use
a multi-tail callback list there as well.
This commit therefore abstracts the multi-tail callback list handling
into a new kernel/rcu/rcu_segcblist.h file, and uses this new API.
The simple head-and-tail pointer callback list is also abstracted and
applied everywhere except for the NOCB callback-offload lists. (Yes,
the plan is to apply them there as well, but this commit is already
bigger than would be good.)

rcu: Make rcu_barrier() understand about missing rcuo kthreads
Commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs)
avoids creating rcuo kthreads for CPUs that never come online. This
fixes a bug in many instances of firmware: Instead of lying about their
age, these systems instead lie about the number of CPUs that they have.
Before commit 35ce7f29a44a, this could result in huge numbers of useless
rcuo kthreads being created.
It appears that experience indicates that I should have told the
people suffering from this problem to fix their broken firmware, but
I instead produced what turned out to be a partial fix. The missing
piece supplied by this commit makes sure that rcu_barrier() knows not to
post callbacks for no-CBs CPUs that have not yet come online, because
otherwise rcu_barrier() will hang on systems having firmware that lies
about the number of CPUs.
It is tempting to simply have rcu_barrier() refuse to post a callback on
any no-CBs CPU that does not have an rcuo kthread. This unfortunately
does not work because rcu_barrier() is required to wait for all pending
callbacks. It is therefore required to wait even for those callbacks
that cannot possibly be invoked. Even if doing so hangs the system.
Given that posting a callback to a no-CBs CPU that does not yet have an
rcuo kthread can hang rcu_barrier(), It is tempting to report an error
in this case. Unfortunately, this will result in false positives at
boot time, when it is perfectly legal to post callbacks to the boot CPU
before the scheduler has started, in other words, before it is legal
to invoke rcu_barrier().
So this commit instead has rcu_barrier() avoid posting callbacks to
CPUs having neither rcuo kthread nor pending callbacks, and has it
complain bitterly if it finds CPUs having no rcuo kthread but some
pending callbacks. And when rcu_barrier() does find CPUs having no rcuo
kthread but pending callbacks, as noted earlier, it has no choice but
to hang indefinitely.

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".
