The patch dfeb9765 ("Allow post-unlock reference for rt_mutex") ensured rcu-boost safe even the rt_mutex has post-unlock reference. But rt_mutex allowing post-unlock reference is definitely a bug and it was fixed by the commit 27e35715 ("rtmutex: Plug slow unlock race"). This fix made the previous patch (dfeb9765) useless. And even worse, the priority-inversion introduced by the the previous patch still exists. rcu_read_unlock_special() { rt_mutex_unlock(&rnp->boost_mtx); /* Priority-Inversion: * the current task had been deboosted and preempted as a low * priority task immediately, it could wait long before reschedule in, * and the rcu-booster also waits on this low priority task and sleeps. * This priority-inversion makes rcu-booster can't work * as expected. */ complete(&rnp->boost_completion); } Just revert the patch to avoid it.

The rcu_cleanup_dead_cpu() function (called after a CPU has gone completely offline) has not reported a quiescent state because there was probably at least one synchronize_rcu() between the time the CPU went offline and the CPU_DEAD notifier, and this would have detected the CPU's offline state via quiescent-state forcing. However, the plan is for CPUs to take themselves offline, at which point it makes sense for them to report their own quiescent state. This commit makes this change in preparation for the new CPU-hotplug setup. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

When rcu_boost_kthread_setaffinity() sees that all CPUs for a given rcu_node structure are now offline, it affinities the corresponding RCU-boost ("rcub") kthread away from those CPUs. This is pointless because the kthread cannot run on those offline CPUs in any case. This commit therefore removes this unneeded code. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Because there is no longer any preempted tasks on the root rcu_node, and because there is no longer ever an rcub kthread for the root rcu_node, this commit drops the code in force_qs_rnp() that attempts to awaken the non-existent root rcub kthread. This is strictly a performance enhancement, removing a root rcu_node ->lock acquisition and release along with some tests in rcu_initiate_boost(), ending with the test that notes that there is no rcub kthread.

Now that offlining CPUs no longer moves leaf rcu_node structures' ->blkd_tasks lists to the root, there is no way for the root rcu_node structure's ->blkd_task list to be nonempty, unless the root node is also the sole leaf node. This commit therefore refrains from creating an rcub kthread for the root rcu_node structure unless it is also the sole leaf. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Now that we are not migrating callbacks, there is no need to hold the ->orphan_lock across the the ->qsmaskinit bit-clearing process. This commit therefore releases ->orphan_lock immediately after adopting the orphaned RCU callbacks. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Paul E. McKenney authored
When the last CPU associated with a given leaf rcu_node structure goes offline, something must be done about the tasks queued on that rcu_node structure. Each of these tasks has been preempted on one of the leaf rcu_node structure's CPUs while in an RCU read-side critical section that it have not yet exited. Handling these tasks is the job of rcu_preempt_offline_tasks(), which migrates them from the leaf rcu_node structure to the root rcu_node structure. Unfortunately, this migration has to be done one task at a time because each tasks allegiance must be shifted from the original leaf rcu_node to the root, so that future attempts to deal with these tasks will acquire the root rcu_node structure's ->lock rather than that of the leaf. Worse yet, this migration must be done with interrupts disabled, which is not so good for realtime response, especially given that there is no bound on the number of tasks on a given rcu_node structure's list. (OK, OK, there is a bound, it is just that it is unreasonably large, especially on 64-bit systems.) This was not considered a problem back when rcu_preempt_offline_tasks() was first written because realtime systems were assumed not to do CPU-hotplug operations while real-time applications were running. This assumption has proved of dubious validity given that people are starting to run multiple realtime applications on a single SMP system and that it is common practice to offline then online a CPU before starting its real-time application in order to clear extraneous processing off of that CPU. So we now need CPU hotplug operations to avoid undue latencies. This commit therefore avoids migrating these tasks, instead letting them be dequeued one by one from the original leaf rcu_node structure by rcu_read_unlock_special(). This means that the clearing of bits from the upper-level rcu_node structures must be deferred until the last such task has been dequeued, because otherwise subsequent grace periods won't wait on them. This commit has the beneficial side effect of simplifying the CPU-hotplug code for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, especially in CONFIG_RCU_BOOST builds. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This commit causes rcu_read_unlock_special() to propagate ->qsmaskinit bit clearing up the rcu_node tree once a given rcu_node structure's blkd_tasks list becomes empty. This is the final commit in preparation for the rework of RCU priority boosting: It enables preempted tasks to remain queued on their rcu_node structure even after all of that rcu_node structure's CPUs have gone offline.

This commit abstracts rcu_cleanup_dead_rnp() from rcu_cleanup_dead_cpu() in preparation for the rework of RCU priority boosting. This new function will be invoked from rcu_read_unlock_special() in the reworked scheme, which is why rcu_cleanup_dead_rnp() assumes that the leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmaskinit field has already been updated.

Paul E. McKenney authored
The x86 architecture has multiple types of NMI-like interrupts: real NMIs, machine checks, and, for some values of NMI-like, debugging and breakpoint interrupts. These interrupts can nest inside each other. Andy Lutomirski is adding RCU support to these interrupts, so rcu_nmi_enter() and rcu_nmi_exit() must now correctly handle nesting. This commit therefore introduces nesting, using a clever NMI-coordination algorithm suggested by Andy. The trick is to atomically increment ->dynticks (if needed) before manipulating ->dynticks_nmi_nesting on entry (and, accordingly, after on exit). In addition, ->dynticks_nmi_nesting is incremented by one if ->dynticks was incremented and by two otherwise. This means that when rcu_nmi_exit() sees ->dynticks_nmi_nesting equal to one, it knows that ->dynticks must be atomically incremented. This NMI-coordination algorithms has been validated by the following Promela model: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /* * Promela model for Andy Lutomirski's suggested change to rcu_nmi_enter() * that allows nesting. * * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or * (at your option) any later version. * * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Here is a set of patches to tackle that problem. The first patch introduce READ_ONCE and ASSIGN_ONCE. If the data structure is larger than the machine word size memcpy is used and a warning is emitted. The next patches fix up several in-tree users of ACCESS_ONCE on non-scalar types.

strcmp was lost when all other string functions were removed, but we still have an optimized version for this on CRISv32, so any driver built as a module would not have access to this symbol. In a similar manner, we had optimized versions of csum_partial_copy_from_user and __do_clear_user but no exported symbols for them, breaking bunch of other drivers when built as a module. At the same time, move EXPORT_SYMBOL(__copy_user) and EXPORT_SYMBOL(__copy_user_zeroing) C-files so it's located together with the function definition.
