When debugging the latencies on a 40 core box, where we hit 300 to
500 microsecond latencies, I found there was a huge contention on the
runqueue locks.

Investigating it further, running ftrace, I found that it was due to
the pulling of RT tasks.

The test that was run was the following:

 cyclictest --numa -p95 -m -d0 -i100

This created a thread on each CPU, that would set its wakeup in iterations
of 100 microseconds. The -d0 means that all the threads had the same
interval (100us). Each thread sleeps for 100us and wakes up and measures
its latencies.

cyclictest is maintained at:
 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clrkwllms/rt-tests.git

What happened was another RT task would be scheduled on one of the CPUs
that was running our test, when the other CPU tests went to sleep and
scheduled idle. This caused the "pull" operation to execute on all
these CPUs. Each one of these saw the RT task that was overloaded on
the CPU of the test that was still running, and each one tried
to grab that task in a thundering herd way.

To grab the task, each thread would do a double rq lock grab, grabbing
its own lock as well as the rq of the overloaded CPU. As the sched
domains on this box was rather flat for its size, I saw up to 12 CPUs
block on this lock at once. This caused a ripple affect with the
rq locks especially since the taking was done via a double rq lock, which
means that several of the CPUs had their own rq locks held while trying
to take this rq lock. As these locks were blocked, any wakeups or load
balanceing on these CPUs would also block on these locks, and the wait
time escalated.

I've tried various methods to lessen the load, but things like an
atomic counter to only let one CPU grab the task wont work, because
the task may have a limited affinity, and we may pick the wrong
CPU to take that lock and do the pull, to only find out that the
CPU we picked isn't in the task's affinity.

Instead of doing the PULL, I now have the CPUs that want the pull to
send over an IPI to the overloaded CPU, and let that CPU pick what
CPU to push the task to. No more need to grab the rq lock, and the
push/pull algorithm still works fine.

With this patch, the latency dropped to just 150us over a 20 hour run.
Without the patch, the huge latencies would trigger in seconds.

I've created a new sched feature called RT_PUSH_IPI, which is enabled
by default.

When RT_PUSH_IPI is not enabled, the old method of grabbing the rq locks
and having the pulling CPU do the work is implemented. When RT_PUSH_IPI
is enabled, the IPI is sent to the overloaded CPU to do a push.

To enabled or disable this at run time:

 # mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
 # echo RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
or
 # echo NO_RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features

Update: This original patch would send an IPI to all CPUs in the RT overload
list. But that could theoretically cause the reverse issue. That is, there
could be lots of overloaded RT queues and one CPU lowers its priority. It would
then send an IPI to all the overloaded RT queues and they could then all try
to grab the rq lock of the CPU lowering its priority, and then we have the
same problem.

The latest design sends out only one IPI to the first overloaded CPU. It tries to
push any tasks that it can, and then looks for the next overloaded CPU that can
push to the source CPU. The IPIs stop when all overloaded CPUs that have pushable
tasks that have priorities greater than the source CPU are covered. In case the
source CPU lowers its priority again, a flag is set to tell the IPI traversal to
restart with the first RT overloaded CPU after the source CPU.

When non-realtime tasks get priority-inheritance boosted to a realtime
scheduling class, RLIMIT_RTTIME starts to apply to them. However, the
counter used for checking this (the same one used for SCHED_RR
timeslices) was not getting reset. This meant that tasks running with a
non-realtime scheduling class which are repeatedly boosted to a realtime
one, but never block while they are running realtime, eventually hit the
timeout without ever running for a time over the limit. This patch
resets the realtime timeslice counter when un-PI-boosting from an RT to
a non-RT scheduling class.

I have some test code with two threads and a shared PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT
mutex which induces priority boosting and spins while boosted that gets
killed by a SIGXCPU on non-fixed kernels but doesn't with this patch
applied. It happens much faster with a CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT kernel, and
does happen eventually with PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernels.

If ->run() fails, it can either free the data structures it
allocated, or leave that task to ->free() which will be called
on failures.

However:
  md.c calls ->free() even if ->private_data is NULL, which
     causes problems in some personalities.
  raid0.c frees the data, but doesn't clear ->private_data,
     which will become a problem when we fix md.c

So better fix both these issues at once.

init_mm isn't a normal mm: it has swapper_pg_dir as its pgd (which
contains kernel mappings) and is used as the active_mm for the idle
thread.

When restoring the pgd after an EFI call, we write current->active_mm
into TTBR0. If the current task is actually the idle thread (e.g. when
initialising the EFI RTC before entering userspace), then the TLB can
erroneously populate itself with junk global entries as a result of
speculative table walks.

When we do eventually return to userspace, the task can end up hitting
these junk mappings leading to lockups, corruption or crashes.

This patch fixes the problem in the same way as the CPU suspend code by
ensuring that we never switch to the init_mm in efi_set_pgd and instead
point TTBR0 at the zero page. A check is also added to cpu_switch_mm to
BUG if we get passed swapper_pg_dir.

Commit b4b55cda (Refine the way to release PCI IRQ resources)
introduced a regression in the PCI IRQ resource management by causing
the IRQ resource of a device, established when pci_enabled_device()
is called on a fully disabled device, to be released when the driver
is unbound from the device, regardless of the enable_cnt.

This leads to the situation that an ill-behaved driver can now make a
device unusable to subsequent drivers by an imbalance in their use of
pci_enable/disable_device().  That is a serious problem for secondary
drivers like vfio-pci, which are innocent of the transgressions of
the previous driver.

Since the solution of this problem is not immediate and requires
further discussion, revert commit b4b55cda and the issue it was
supposed to address (a bug related to xen-pciback) will be taken
care of in a different way going forward.

A check that rejects a CDB with FUA bit set if no write cache is
emulated was added by the following commit:

  fde9f50f target: Add sanity checks for DPO/FUA bit usage

The condition is as follows:

  if (!dev->dev_attrib.emulate_fua_write ||
      !dev->dev_attrib.emulate_write_cache)

However, this check is wrong if the backend device supports WCE but
"emulate_write_cache" is disabled.

This patch uses se_dev_check_wce() (previously named
spc_check_dev_wce) to invoke transport->get_write_cache() if the
device has a write cache or check the "emulate_write_cache" attribute
otherwise.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference triggered by a late
target_configure_device() -> alloc_workqueue() failure that results
in target_free_device() being called with DF_CONFIGURED already set,
which subsequently OOPses in destroy_workqueue() code.

Currently this only happens at modprobe target_core_mod time when
core_dev_setup_virtual_lun0() -> target_configure_device() fails,
and the explicit target_free_device() gets called.

To address this bug originally introduced by commit 0fd97ccf, go
ahead and move DF_CONFIGURED to end of target_configure_device()
code to handle this special failure case.

within target_core_stat.c code.  The bug is caused by a configfs attr
read if no pscsi_dev_virt->pdv_sd has been configured.

This patch adds a missing set of conditional check braces in
ft_invl_hw_context() originally introduced by commit dcd998cc
when handling DDP failures in ft_recv_write_data() code.

This patch fixes a se_cmd->cmd_kref leak buf when se_sess->sess_tearing_down
is true within target_get_sess_cmd() submission path code.

This se_cmd reference leak can occur during active session shutdown when
ack_kref=1 is passed by target_submit_cmd_[map_sgls,tmr]() callers.

This patch changes loopback, usb-gadget, vhost-scsi and xen-scsiback
fabric code to invoke transport_register_session() instead of the
unprotected flavour, to ensure se_tpg->session_lock is taken when
adding new session list nodes to se_tpg->tpg_sess_list.

Note that since these four fabric drivers already hold their own
internal TPG mutexes when accessing se_tpg->tpg_sess_list, and
consist of a single se_session created through configfs attribute
access, no list corruption can currently occur.

So for correctness sake, go ahead and use the se_tpg->session_lock
protected version for these four fabric drivers.

This patch fixes the incorrect use of __transport_register_session()
in tcm_qla2xxx_check_initiator_node_acl() code, that does not perform
explicit se_tpg->session_lock when accessing se_tpg->tpg_sess_list
to add new se_sess nodes.

Given that tcm_qla2xxx_check_initiator_node_acl() is not called with
qla_hw->hardware_lock held for all accesses of ->tpg_sess_list, the
code should be using transport_register_session() instead.

This patch fixes a iser specific logout bug where early complete()
of conn->conn_logout_comp in iscsit_close_connection() was causing
isert_wait4logout() to complete too soon, triggering a use after
free NULL pointer dereference of iscsi_conn memory.

The complete() was originally added for traditional iscsi-target
when a ISCSI_LOGOUT_OP failed in iscsi_target_rx_opcode(), but given
iser-target does not wait in logout failure, this special case needs
to be avoided.

This reverts commit 72859d91.

The original patch was wrong, iscsit_close_connection() still needs
to release iscsi_conn during both normal + exception IN_LOGOUT status
with ib_isert enabled.

The original OOPs is due to completing conn_logout_comp early within
iscsit_close_connection(), causing isert_wait4logout() to complete
instead of waiting for iscsit_logout_post_handler_*() to be called.

Now that incoming FUA=1 bit check is enforced for backends with FUA or
WCE disabled, go ahead and disallow the changing of related backend
attributes when active fabric exports exist.

This is required to avoid potential failures with existing initiator
LUN registrations that have been previously created with FUA=1.
