Commit: 9043442b ("locking/paravirt: Use new static key for controlling call of virt_spin_lock()") sets the static virt_spin_lock_key to a value before jump_label_init() has been called, which will result in a WARN(). Reorder the initialization sequence: - Move the native_pv_lock_init() into native_smp_prepare_cpus() - set the value in xen_init_lock_cpu() to avoid calling into the not yet initialized static keys subsystem.

However, some bios have nothing to do with others, for example in the case of loop devices, there's no direct connection between the bios of an upper device and the bios of a lower device(=loop device). The safest way to assign different lock classes to different devices is to do it for each gendisk. In other words, this patch assigns a lockdep_map per gendisk and uses it when initializing completion in submit_bio_wait(). Analyzed-by:Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reported-by:

The workqueue code added manual lock acquisition annotations to catch deadlocks. After lockdepcrossrelease was introduced, some of those became redundant, since wait_for_completion() already does the acquisition and tracking. Remove the duplicate annotations. Signed-off-by:

Sometimes we want to initialize completions with sparate lockdep maps to assign lock classes as desired. For example, the workqueue code needs to directly manage lockdep maps, since only the code is aware of how to classify lockdep maps properly. Provide additional macros initializing completions in that way. Signed-off-by:

Johan Hovold reported a heavy performance regression caused by lockdep cross-release: > Boot time (from "Linux version" to login prompt) had in fact doubled > since 4.13 where it took 17 seconds (with my current config) compared to > the 35 seconds I now see with 4.14-rc4. > > I quick bisect pointed to lockdep and specifically the following commit: > > 28a903f6 ("locking/lockdep: Handle non(or multi)-acquisition > of a crosslock") > > which I've verified is the commit which doubled the boot time (compared > to 28a903f6^) (added by lockdep crossrelease series [1]). Currently cross-release performs unwind on every acquisition, but that is very expensive. This patch makes unwind optional and disables it by default and only records acquire_ip. Full stack traces are sometimes required for full analysis, in which case a boot paramter, crossrelease_fullstack, can be specified. On my qemu Ubuntu machine (x86_64, 4 cores, 512M), the regression was fixed. We measure boot times with 'perf stat --null --repeat 10 $QEMU', where $QEMU launches a kernel with init=/bin/true: 1. No lockdep enabled: Performance counter stats for 'qemu_booting_time.sh bzImage' (10 runs): 2.756558155 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.09% ) 2. Lockdep enabled: Performance counter stats for 'qemu_booting_time.sh bzImage' (10 runs): 2.968710420 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.12% ) 3. Lockdep enabled + cross-release enabled: Performance counter stats for 'qemu_booting_time.sh bzImage' (10 runs): 3.153839636 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.31% ) 4. Lockdep enabled + cross-release enabled + this patch applied: Performance counter stats for 'qemu_booting_time.sh bzImage' (10 runs): 2.963669551 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.11% ) I.e. lockdep cross-release performance is now indistinguishable from vanilla lockdep.

locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by:Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by:

To avoid fragility if/when that transformation occurs, this patch reworks the definitions of {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in the rcutorture formal tests, and removes the unused ACCESS_ONCE() helper.

When a prospective writer takes the qrwlock locking slowpath due to the lock being held, it attempts to cmpxchg the wmode field from 0 to _QW_WAITING so that concurrent lockers also take the slowpath and queue on the spinlock accordingly, allowing the lockers to drain. Unfortunately, this isn't fair, because a fastpath writer that comes in after the lock is made available but before the _QW_WAITING flag is set can effectively jump the queue. If there is a steady stream of prospective writers, then the waiter will be held off indefinitely. This patch restores fairness by separating _QW_WAITING and _QW_LOCKED into two distinct fields: _QW_LOCKED continues to occupy the bottom byte of the lockword so that it can be cleared unconditionally when unlocking, but _QW_WAITING now occupies what used to be the bottom bit of the reader count. This then forces the slow-path for concurrent lockers. Tested-by:

Now that the qrwlock can make use of WFE, remove our homebrewed rwlock code in favour of the generic queued implementation. Tested-by:

The qrwlock slowpaths involve spinning when either a prospective reader is waiting for a concurrent writer to drain, or a prospective writer is waiting for concurrent readers to drain. In both of these situations, atomic_cond_read_acquire() can be used to avoid busy-waiting and make use of any backoff functionality provided by the architecture. This patch replaces the open-code loops and rspin_until_writer_unlock() implementation with atomic_cond_read_acquire(). The write mode transition zero to _QW_WAITING is left alone, since (a) this doesn't need acquire semantics and (b) should be fast. Tested-by:

smp_cond_load_acquire() provides a way to spin on a variable with acquire semantics until some conditional expression involving the variable is satisfied. Architectures such as arm64 can potentially enter a low-power state, waking up only when the value of the variable changes, which reduces the system impact of tight polling loops. This patch makes the same interface available to users of atomic_t, atomic64_t and atomic_long_t, rather than require messy accesses to the structure internals. Signed-off-by:

There's no good reason to keep the internal structure of struct qrwlock hidden from qrwlock.h, particularly as it's actually needed for unlock and ends up being abstracted independently behind the __qrwlock_write_byte() function. Stop pretending we can hide this stuff, and move the __qrwlock definition into qrwlock, removing the __qrwlock_write_byte() nastiness and using the same struct definition everywhere instead.

As part of the fight against smp_read_barrier_depends(), we require dependency ordering to be preserved when a dependency is headed by a load performed using an atomic operation. This patch adds smp_read_barrier_depends() to the _release() and _relaxed() atomics on alpha, which otherwise lack anything to enforce dependency ordering. Signed-off-by:

lockless_dereference() is a nice idea, but it gained little traction in kernel code since its introduction three years ago. This is partly because it's a pain to type, but also because using READ_ONCE() instead has worked correctly on all architectures apart from Alpha, which is a fully supported but somewhat niche architecture these days. Now that READ_ONCE() has been upgraded to contain an implicit smp_read_barrier_depends() and the few callers of lockless_dereference() have been converted, we can remove lockless_dereference() altogether.

READ_ONCE() now has an implicit smp_read_barrier_depends() call, so it can be used instead of lockless_dereference() without any change in semantics. Signed-off-by:

In preparation for the removal of lockless_dereference(), which is the same as READ_ONCE() on all architectures other than Alpha, add an implicit smp_read_barrier_depends() to READ_ONCE() so that it can be used to head dependency chains on all architectures. Signed-off-by:

linux/compiler.h is included indirectly by linux/types.h via uapi/linux/types.h -> uapi/linux/posix_types.h -> linux/stddef.h -> uapi/linux/stddef.h and is needed to provide a proper definition of offsetof. Unfortunately, compiler.h requires a definition of smp_read_barrier_depends() for defining lockless_dereference() and soon for defining READ_ONCE(), which means that all users of READ_ONCE() will need to include asm/barrier.h to avoid splats such as: In file included from include/uapi/linux/stddef.h:1:0, from include/linux/stddef.h:4, from arch/h8300/kernel/asm-offsets.c:11: include/linux/list.h: In function 'list_empty': >> include/linux/compiler.h:343:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'smp_read_barrier_depends' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] smp_read_barrier_depends(); /* Enforce dependency ordering from x */ \ ^ A better alternative is to include asm/barrier.h in linux/compiler.h, but this requires a type definition for "bool" on some architectures (e.g. x86), which is defined later by linux/types.h. Type "bool" is also used directly in linux/compiler.h, so the whole thing is pretty fragile. This patch splits compiler.h in two: compiler_types.h contains type annotations, definitions and the compiler-specific parts, whereas compiler.h #includes compiler-types.h and additionally defines macros such as {READ,WRITE.ACCESS}_ONCE(). uapi/linux/stddef.h and linux/linkage.h are then moved over to include linux/compiler_types.h, which fixes the build for h8 and blackfin.
