The requeue_pi() operation on RT kernels creates a problem versus the
task::pi_blocked_on state when a waiter is woken early (signal, timeout)
and that early wake up interleaves with the requeue_pi() operation.
When the requeue manages to block the waiter on the rtmutex which is
associated to the second futex, then a concurrent early wakeup of that
waiter faces the problem that it has to acquire the hash bucket spinlock,
which is not an issue on non-RT kernels, but on RT kernels spinlocks are
substituted by 'sleeping' spinlocks based on rtmutex. If the hash bucket
lock is contended then blocking on that spinlock would result in a
impossible situation: blocking on two locks at the same time (the hash
bucket lock and the rtmutex representing the PI futex).
It was considered to make the hash bucket locks raw_spinlocks, but
especially requeue operations with a large amount of waiters can introduce
significant latencies, so that's not an option for RT.
The RT tree carried a solution which (ab)used task::pi_blocked_on to store
the information about an ongoing requeue and an early wakeup which worked,
but required to add checks for these special states all over the place.
The distangling of an early wakeup of a waiter for a requeue_pi() operation
is already looking at quite some different states and the task::pi_blocked_on
magic just expanded that to a hard to understand 'state machine'.
This can be avoided by keeping track of the waiter/requeue state in the
futex_q object itself.
Add a requeue_state field to struct futex_q with the following possible
states:
Q_REQUEUE_PI_NONE
Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE
Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS
Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT
Q_REQUEUE_PI_DONE
Q_REQUEUE_PI_LOCKED
The waiter starts with state = NONE and the following state transitions are
valid:
On the waiter side:
Q_REQUEUE_PI_NONE -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE
Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT
On the requeue side:
Q_REQUEUE_PI_NONE -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_INPROGRESS
Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_DONE/LOCKED
Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_NONE (requeue failed)
Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_DONE/LOCKED
Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE (requeue failed)
The requeue side ignores a waiter with state Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE as this
signals that the waiter is already on the way out. It also means that
the waiter is still on the 'wait' futex, i.e. uaddr1.
The waiter side signals early wakeup to the requeue side either through
setting state to Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE or to Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT depending
on the current state. In case of Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE it can immediately
proceed to take the hash bucket lock of uaddr1. If it set state to WAIT,
which means the wakeup is interleaving with a requeue in progress it has
to wait for the requeue side to change the state. Either to DONE/LOCKED
or to IGNORE. DONE/LOCKED means the waiter q is now on the uaddr2 futex
and either blocked (DONE) or has acquired it (LOCKED). IGNORE is set by
the requeue side when the requeue attempt failed via deadlock detection
and therefore the waiter's futex_q is still on the uaddr1 futex.
While this is not strictly required on !RT making this unconditional has
the benefit of common code and it also allows the waiter to avoid taking
the hash bucket lock on the way out in certain cases, which reduces
contention.
Add the required helpers required for the state transitions, invoke them at
the right places and restructure the futex_wait_requeue_pi() code to handle
the return from wait (early or not) based on the state machine values.
On !RT enabled kernels the waiter spin waits for the state going from
Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT to some other state, on RT enabled kernels this is
handled by rcuwait_wait_event() and the corresponding wake up on the
requeue side.

For requeue PI it's required to establish PI state for the PI futex to
which waiters are requeued. This either acquires the user space futex on
behalf of the top most waiter on the inner 'waitqueue' futex, or attaches to
the PI state of an existing waiter, or creates on attached to the owner of
the futex.
This code can retry in case of failure, but retry can never happen when the
pi state was successfully created. The condition to run this code is:
(task_count - nr_wake) < nr_requeue
which is always true because:
task_count = 0
nr_wake = 1
nr_requeue >= 0
Remove it completely.

When requeuing to a PI futex, then the requeue code tries to trylock the PI
futex on behalf of the topmost waiter on the inner 'waitqueue' futex. If
that succeeds, then PI state has to be allocated in order to requeue further
waiters to the PI futex.
The comment and the code are confusing, as the PI state allocation uses
lookup_pi_state(), which either attaches to an existing waiter or to the
owner. As the PI futex was just acquired, there cannot be a waiter on the
PI futex because the hash bucket lock is held.
Clarify the comment and use attach_to_pi_owner() directly. As the task on
which behalf the PI futex has been acquired is guaranteed to be alive and
not exiting, this call must succeed. Add a WARN_ON() in case that fails.

Guard the regular sleeping lock specific functionality, which is used for
rtmutex on non-RT enabled kernels and for mutex, rtmutex and semaphores on
RT enabled kernels so the code can be reused for the RT specific
implementation of spinlocks and rwlocks in a different compilation unit.
No functional change.

Add an rtlock_task pointer to rt_mutex_wake_q, which allows to handle the RT
specific wakeup for spin/rwlock waiters. The pointer is just consuming 4/8
bytes on the stack so it is provided unconditionaly to avoid #ifdeffery all
over the place.
This cannot use a regular wake_q, because a task can have concurrent wakeups which
would make it miss either lock or the regular wakeups, depending on what gets
queued first, unless task struct gains a separate wake_q_node for this, which
would be overkill, because there can only be a single task which gets woken
up in the spin/rw_lock unlock path.
No functional change for non-RT enabled kernels.

To handle the difference between wakeups for regular sleeping locks (mutex,
rtmutex, rw_semaphore) and the wakeups for 'sleeping' spin/rwlocks on
PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels correctly, it is required to provide a
wake_q_head construct which allows to keep them separate.
Provide a wrapper around wake_q_head and the required helpers, which will be
extended with the state handling later.

Regular sleeping locks like mutexes, rtmutexes and rw_semaphores are always
entering and leaving a blocking section with task state == TASK_RUNNING.
On a non-RT kernel spinlocks and rwlocks never affect the task state, but
on RT kernels these locks are converted to rtmutex based 'sleeping' locks.
So in case of contention the task goes to block, which requires to carefully
preserve the task state, and restore it after acquiring the lock taking
regular wakeups for the task into account, which happened while the task was
blocked. This state preserving is achieved by having a separate task state
for blocking on a RT spin/rwlock and a saved_state field in task_struct
along with careful handling of these wakeup scenarios in try_to_wake_up().
To avoid conditionals in the rtmutex code, store the wake state which has
to be used for waking a lock waiter in rt_mutex_waiter which allows to
handle the regular and RT spin/rwlocks by handing it to wake_up_state().

The RT specific R/W semaphore implementation used to restrict the number of
readers to one, because a writer cannot block on multiple readers and
inherit its priority or budget.
The single reader restricting was painful in various ways:
- Performance bottleneck for multi-threaded applications in the page fault
path (mmap sem)
- Progress blocker for drivers which are carefully crafted to avoid the
potential reader/writer deadlock in mainline.
The analysis of the writer code paths shows that properly written RT tasks
should not take them. Syscalls like mmap(), file access which take mmap sem
write locked have unbound latencies, which are completely unrelated to mmap
sem. Other R/W sem users like graphics drivers are not suitable for RT tasks
either.
So there is little risk to hurt RT tasks when the RT rwsem implementation is
done in the following way:
- Allow concurrent readers
- Make writers block until the last reader left the critical section. This
blocking is not subject to priority/budget inheritance.
- Readers blocked on a writer inherit their priority/budget in the normal
way.
There is a drawback with this scheme: R/W semaphores become writer unfair
though the applications which have triggered writer starvation (mostly on
mmap_sem) in the past are not really the typical workloads running on a RT
system. So while it's unlikely to hit writer starvation, it's possible. If
there are unexpected workloads on RT systems triggering it, the problem
has to be revisited.

On PREEMPT_RT, rw_semaphores and rwlocks are substituted with an rtmutex and
a reader count. The implementation is writer unfair, as it is not feasible
to do priority inheritance on multiple readers, but experience has shown
that real-time workloads are not the typical workloads which are sensitive
to writer starvation.
The inner workings of rw_semaphores and rwlocks on RT are almost identical
except for the task state and signal handling. rw_semaphores are not state
preserving over a contention, they are expected to enter and leave with state
== TASK_RUNNING. rwlocks have a mechanism to preserve the state of the task
at entry and restore it after unblocking taking potential non-lock related
wakeups into account. rw_semaphores can also be subject to signal handling
interrupting a blocked state, while rwlocks ignore signals.
To avoid code duplication, provide a shared implementation which takes the
small difference vs. state and signals into account. The code is included
into the relevant rw_semaphore/rwlock base code and compiled for each use
case separately.
