Systems running CPU-bound real-time task do not want IPIs sent to CPUs
executing nohz_full userspace tasks. Battery-powered systems don't
want IPIs sent to idle CPUs in low-power mode. Unfortunately, RCU tasks
trace can and will send such IPIs in some cases.
Both of these situations occur only when the target CPU is in RCU
dyntick-idle mode, in other words, when RCU is not watching the
target CPU. This suggests that CPUs in dyntick-idle mode should use
memory barriers in outermost invocations of rcu_read_lock_trace()
and rcu_read_unlock_trace(), which would allow the RCU tasks trace
grace period to directly read out the target CPU's read-side state.
One challenge is that RCU tasks trace is not targeting a specific
CPU, but rather a task. And that task could switch from one CPU to
another at any time.
This commit therefore uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task()
and checks for task_curr() in trc_inspect_reader_notrunning().
When this condition holds, the target task is running and cannot move.
If CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB=y, the new rcu_dynticks_zero_in_eqs()
function can be used to check if the specified integer (in this case,
t->trc_reader_nesting) is zero while the target CPU remains in that same
dyntick-idle sojourn. If so, the target task is in a quiescent state.
If not, trc_read_check_handler() must indicate failure so that the
grace-period kthread can take appropriate action or retry after an
appropriate delay, as the case may be.
With this change, given CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB=y, if a given
CPU remains idle or a given task continues executing in nohz_full mode,
the RCU tasks trace grace-period kthread will detect this without the
need to send an IPI.

Even if some CPUs have excessive numbers of callbacks, RCU's grace-period
kthread will still wait normally between successive force-quiescent-state
scans. The first two are the most important, as they are the ones that
enlist aid from the scheduler when overloaded. This commit therefore
omits the wait before the first and the second force-quiescent-state
scan under callback-overload conditions.
This approach was inspired by a discussion with Jeff Roberson.

In default configutions, RCU currently waits at least 100 milliseconds
before asking cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help seeking
quiescent states to end a grace period. But 100 milliseconds can be
one good long time during an RCU callback flood, for example, as can
happen when user processes repeatedly open and close files in a tight
loop. These 100-millisecond gaps in successive grace periods during a
callback flood can result in excessive numbers of callbacks piling up,
unnecessarily increasing memory footprint.
This commit therefore asks cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help
as early as the first FQS scan when at least one of the CPUs has more
than 20,000 callbacks queued, a number that can be changed using the new
rcutree.qovld kernel boot parameter. An auxiliary qovld_calc variable
is used to avoid acquisition of locks that have not yet been initialized.
Early tests indicate that this reduces the RCU-callback memory footprint
during rcutorture floods by from 50% to 4x, depending on configuration.

An expedited grace period can be stalled by a nohz_full CPU looping
in kernel context. This possibility is currently handled by some
carefully crafted checks in rcu_read_unlock_special() that enlist help
from ksoftirqd when permitted by the scheduler. However, it is exactly
these checks that require the scheduler avoid holding any of its rq or
pi locks across rcu_read_unlock() without also having held them across
the entire RCU read-side critical section.
It would therefore be very nice if expedited grace periods could
handle nohz_full CPUs looping in kernel context without such checks.
This commit therefore adds code to the expedited grace period's wait
and cleanup code that forces the scheduler-clock interrupt on for CPUs
that fail to quickly supply a quiescent state. "Quickly" is currently
a hard-coded single-jiffy delay.

Use of the rcu_data structure's segmented ->cblist for no-CBs CPUs
takes advantage of unrelated grace periods, thus reducing the memory
footprint in the face of floods of call_rcu() invocations. However,
the ->cblist field is a more-complex rcu_segcblist structure which must
be protected via locking. Even though there are only three entities
which can acquire this lock (the CPU invoking call_rcu(), the no-CBs
grace-period kthread, and the no-CBs callbacks kthread), the contention
on this lock is excessive under heavy stress.
This commit therefore greatly reduces contention by provisioning
an rcu_cblist structure field named ->nocb_bypass within the
rcu_data structure. Each no-CBs CPU is permitted only a limited
number of enqueues onto the ->cblist per jiffy, controlled by a new
nocb_nobypass_lim_per_jiffy kernel boot parameter that defaults to
about 16 enqueues per millisecond (16 * 1000 / HZ). When that limit is
exceeded, the CPU instead enqueues onto the new ->nocb_bypass.
The ->nocb_bypass is flushed into the ->cblist every jiffy or when
the number of callbacks on ->nocb_bypass exceeds qhimark, whichever
happens first. During call_rcu() floods, this flushing is carried out
by the CPU during the course of its call_rcu() invocations. However,
a CPU could simply stop invoking call_rcu() at any time. The no-CBs
grace-period kthread therefore carries out less-aggressive flushing
(every few jiffies or when the number of callbacks on ->nocb_bypass
exceeds (2 * qhimark), whichever comes first). This means that the
no-CBs grace-period kthread cannot be permitted to do unbounded waits
while there are callbacks on ->nocb_bypass. A ->nocb_bypass_timer is
used to provide the needed wakeups.

The sleep/wakeup of the no-CBs grace-period kthreads is synchronized
using the ->nocb_lock of the first CPU corresponding to that kthread.
This commit provides a separate ->nocb_gp_lock for this purpose, thus
reducing contention on ->nocb_lock.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com>
A given rcu_data structure's ->nocb_lock can be acquired very frequently
by the corresponding CPU and occasionally by the corresponding no-CBs
grace-period and callbacks kthreads. In particular, these two kthreads
will have frequent gaps between ->nocb_lock acquisitions that are roughly
a grace period in duration. This means that any excessive ->nocb_lock
contention will be due to the CPU's acquisitions, and this in turn
enables a very naive contention-avoidance strategy to be quite effective.
This commit therefore modifies rcu_nocb_lock() to first
attempt a raw_spin_trylock(), and to atomically increment a
separate ->nocb_lock_contended across a raw_spin_lock(). This new
->nocb_lock_contended field is checked in __call_rcu_nocb_wake() when
interrupts are enabled, with a spin-wait for contending acquisitions
to complete, thus allowing the kthreads a chance to acquire the lock.

Currently the RCU callbacks for no-CBs CPUs are queued on a series of
ad-hoc linked lists, which means that these callbacks cannot benefit
from "drive-by" grace periods, thus suffering needless delays prior
to invocation. In addition, the no-CBs grace-period kthreads first
wait for callbacks to appear and later wait for a new grace period,
which means that callbacks appearing during a grace-period wait can
be delayed. These delays increase memory footprint, and could even
result in an out-of-memory condition.
This commit therefore enqueues RCU callbacks from no-CBs CPUs on the
rcu_segcblist structure that is already used by non-no-CBs CPUs. It also
restructures the no-CBs grace-period kthread to be checking for incoming
callbacks while waiting for grace periods. Also, instead of waiting
for a new grace period, it waits for the closest grace period that will
cause some of the callbacks to be safe to invoke. All of these changes
reduce callback latency and thus the number of outstanding callbacks,
in turn reducing the probability of an out-of-memory condition.

As a first step towards making no-CBs CPUs use the ->cblist, this commit
leaves the ->cblist enabled for these CPUs. The main reason to make
no-CBs CPUs use ->cblist is to take advantage of callback numbering,

reduce forward-progress problems for no-CBs CPUs.

Currently, there is one no-CBs rcuo kthread per CPU, and these kthreads
are divided into groups. The first rcuo kthread to come online in a
given group is that group's leader, and the leader both waits for grace
periods and invokes its CPU's callbacks. The non-leader rcuo kthreads
only invoke callbacks.
This works well in the real-time/embedded environments for which it was
intended because such environments tend not to generate all that many
callbacks. However, given huge floods of callbacks, it is possible for
the leader kthread to be stuck invoking callbacks while its followers
wait helplessly while their callbacks pile up. This is a good recipe
for an OOM, and rcutorture's new callback-flood capability does generate
such OOMs.
One strategy would be to wait until such OOMs start happening in
production, but similar OOMs have in fact happened starting in 2018.
It would therefore be wise to take a more proactive approach.
This commit therefore features per-CPU rcuo kthreads that do nothing
but invoke callbacks. Instead of having one of these kthreads act as
leader, each group has a separate rcog kthread that handles grace periods
for its group. Because these rcuog kthreads do not invoke callbacks,
callback floods on one CPU no longer block callbacks from reaching the
rcuc callback-invocation kthreads on other CPUs.
This change does introduce additional kthreads, however:
1. The number of additional kthreads is about the square root of
the number of CPUs, so that a 4096-CPU system would have only
about 64 additional kthreads. Note that recent changes
decreased the number of rcuo kthreads by a factor of two
(CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) or even three (CONFIG_PREEMPT=y), so
this still represents a significant improvement on most systems.
2. The leading "rcuo" of the rcuog kthreads should allow existing
scripting to affinity these additional kthreads as needed, the
same as for the rcuop and rcuos kthreads. (There are no longer
any rcuob kthreads.)
3. A state-machine approach was considered and rejected. Although
this would allow the rcuo kthreads to continue their dual
leader/follower roles, it complicates callback invocation
and makes it more difficult to consolidate rcuo callback
invocation with existing softirq callback invocation.
The introduction of rcuog kthreads should thus be acceptable.

When rcu_read_unlock_special() is invoked with interrupts disabled, is
either not in an interrupt handler or is not using RCU_SOFTIRQ, is not
the first RCU read-side critical section in the chain, and either there
is an expedited grace period in flight or this is a NO_HZ_FULL kernel,
the end of the grace period can be unduly delayed. The reason for this
is that it is not safe to do wakeups in this situation.
This commit fixes this problem by using the irq_work subsystem to
force a later interrupt handler in a clean environment. Because
set_tsk_need_resched(current) and set_preempt_need_resched() are
invoked prior to this, the scheduler will force a context switch
upon return from this interrupt (though perhaps at the end of any
interrupted preempt-disable or BH-disable region of code), which will
invoke rcu_note_context_switch() (again in a clean environment), which
will in turn give RCU the chance to report the deferred quiescent state.
Of course, by then this task might be within another RCU read-side
critical section. But that will be detected at that time and reporting
will be further deferred to the outermost rcu_read_unlock(). See
rcu_preempt_need_deferred_qs() and rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() for more
details on the checking.

rcuc kthreads at the RCU-boosting priority.

Back when there were multiple flavors of RCU, it was necessary to

Back when there could be multiple RCU flavors running in the same kernel
at the same time, it was necessary to specify the expedited grace-period
IPI handler at runtime. Now that there is only one RCU flavor, the
IPI handler can be determined at build time. There is therefore no
longer any reason for the RCU-preempt and RCU-sched IPI handlers to
have different names, nor is there any reason to pass these handlers in
function arguments and in the data structures enclosing workqueues.
This commit therefore makes all these changes, pushing the specification
of the expedited grace-period IPI handler down to the point of use.

Because nohz_full CPUs can leave the scheduler-clock interrupt disabled

RCU-sched's update-side API members in terms of those of RCU-preempt.
This means that any given build of the Linux kernel has only one
update-side flavor of RCU, namely RCU-preempt for CONFIG_PREEMPT=y builds
and RCU-sched for CONFIG_PREEMPT=n builds. This in turn means that kernels

One necessary step towards consolidating the three flavors of RCU is to
make sure that the resulting consolidated "one flavor to rule them all"
correctly handles networking denial-of-service attacks. One thing that
allows RCU-bh to do so is that __do_softirq() invokes rcu_bh_qs() every
so often, and so something similar has to happen for consolidated RCU.
This must be done carefully. For example, if a preemption-disabled
region of code takes an interrupt which does softirq processing before
returning, consolidated RCU must ignore the resulting rcu_bh_qs()
invocations -- preemption is still disabled, and that means an RCU
reader for the consolidated flavor.
This commit therefore creates a new rcu_softirq_qs() that is called only
from the ksoftirqd task, thus avoiding the interrupted-a-preempted-region
problem. This new rcu_softirq_qs() function invokes rcu_sched_qs(),
rcu_preempt_qs(), and rcu_preempt_deferred_qs(). The latter call handles
any deferred quiescent states.
Note that __do_softirq() still invokes rcu_bh_qs(). It will continue to
do so until a later stage of cleanup when the RCU-bh flavor is removed.

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.

Interactions between CPU-hotplug operations and grace-period
initialization can result in dump_blkd_tasks(). One of the first
debugging actions in this case is to search back in dmesg to work

determine the last CPU-hotplug operation affecting any of those CPUs.
This can be laborious and error-prone, especially when console output

Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Without special fail-safe quiescent-state-propagation checks, grace-period
hangs can result from the following scenario:
1. CPU 1 goes offline.
2. Because CPU 1 is the only CPU in the system blocking the current
grace period, the grace period ends as soon as
rcu_cleanup_dying_idle_cpu()'s call to rcu_report_qs_rnp()
returns.
3. At this point, the leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock is no longer
held: rcu_report_qs_rnp() has released it, as it must in order
to awaken the RCU grace-period kthread.
4. At this point, that same leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmaskinitnext
field still records CPU 1 as being online. This is absolutely
necessary because the scheduler uses RCU (in this case on the
wake-up path while awakening RCU's grace-period kthread), and
->qsmaskinitnext contains RCU's idea as to which CPUs are online.
Therefore, invoking rcu_report_qs_rnp() after clearing CPU 1's
bit from ->qsmaskinitnext would result in a lockdep-RCU splat
due to RCU being used from an offline CPU.
5. RCU's grace-period kthread awakens, sees that the old grace period
has completed and that a new one is needed. It therefore starts
a new grace period, but because CPU 1's leaf rcu_node structure's
->qsmaskinitnext field still shows CPU 1 as being online, this new
grace period is initialized to wait for a quiescent state from the
now-offline CPU 1.
6. Without the fail-safe force-quiescent-state checks, there would
be no quiescent state from the now-offline CPU 1, which would
eventually result in RCU CPU stall warnings and memory exhaustion.
It would be good to get rid of the special fail-safe quiescent-state
propagation checks, and thus it would be good to fix things so that
the above scenario cannot happen. This commit therefore adds a new
->ofl_lock to the rcu_state structure. This lock is held by rcu_gp_init()
across the applying of buffered online and offline operations to the
rcu_node tree, and it is also held by rcu_cleanup_dying_idle_cpu()
when buffering a new offline operation. This prevents rcu_gp_init()
from acquiring the leaf rcu_node structure's lock during the interval
between when rcu_cleanup_dying_idle_cpu() invokes rcu_report_qs_rnp(),
which releases ->lock and the re-acquisition of that same lock.
This in turn prevents the failure scenario outlined above, and will
hopefully eventually allow removal of the offline-CPU checks from the
force-quiescent-state code path.

One problem with the ->need_future_gp[] array is that the grace-period

This increase lock contention, which is the opposite of helpful.

the shift operation required to use ->gp_seq as an index to the
->need_future_gp[] array. The rcu_cbs_completed() function is removed
in favor of the rcu_seq_snap() function. The rcu_start_this_gp()
gets some temporary consistency checks and uses rcu_seq_done(),
rcu_seq_current(), rcu_seq_state(), and rcu_gp_in_progress() in place
of the earlier open-coded comparisons of ->gpnum and ->completed.
The rcu_future_gp_cleanup() function replaces use of ->completed
with ->gp_seq. The rcu_accelerate_cbs() function replaces a call to
rcu_cbs_completed() with one to rcu_seq_snap(). The rcu_advance_cbs()
function replaces an access to >completed with one to ->gp_seq and adds
some temporary warnings. The rcu_nocb_wait_gp() function replaces a
call to rcu_cbs_completed() with one to rcu_seq_snap() and an open-coded
comparison with rcu_seq_done().
The temporary warnings will be removed when the various ->gpnum and
->completed fields are removed. Their purpose is to locate code who
might still be using ->gpnum and ->completed. (Much easier that way
than trying to trace down the causes of too-short grace periods and
grace-period hangs!)
