The rcu_cpu_starting() function uses this_cpu_ptr() to locate the incoming CPU's rcu_data structure. This works for the boot CPU and for all CPUs onlined after rcu_init() executes (during very early boot). Currently, this is the full set of CPUs, so all is well. But if anyone ever parallelizes boot before rcu_init() time, it will fail. This commit therefore substitutes the rcu_cpu_starting() function's this_cpu_pointer() for per_cpu_ptr(), future-proofing the code and (arguably) improving readability. This commit inadvertently fixes a latent bug: If there ever had been more than just the boot CPU online at rcu_init() time, the old code would not initialize the non-boot CPUs, but rather would repeatedly initialize the boot CPU.

Chris Friesen notice that rcuc/X kthreads were consuming CPU even on NOCB CPUs. This makes no sense because the only purpose or these kthreads is to invoke normal (non-offloaded) callbacks, of which there will never be any on NOCB CPUs. This problem was due to a bug in cpu_has_callbacks_ready_to_invoke(), which should have been checking ->nxttail[RCU_NEXT_TAIL] for NULL, but which was instead (incorrectly) checking ->nxttail[RCU_DONE_TAIL]. Because ->nxttail[RCU_DONE_TAIL] is never NULL, the only effect is to cause the rcuc/X kthread to execute when it should not do so. This commit therefore checks ->nxttail[RCU_NEXT_TAIL], which is NULL for NOCB CPUs. Reported-by: Chris Friesen <chris.friesen@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This commit is for all intents and purposes a revert of bc1dce51 ("rcu: Don't use NMIs to dump other CPUs' stacks"). The reason to suppose that this can now safely be reverted is the presence of 42a0bb3f ("printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMI"), which is said to have made NMI-based stack dumps safe. However, this reversion keeps one nice property of bc1dce51 ("rcu: Don't use NMIs to dump other CPUs' stacks"), namely that only those CPUs blocking the grace period are dumped. The new trigger_single_cpu_backtrace() is used to make this happen, as suggested by Josh Poimboeuf. Reported-by: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Commit 4914950a ("rcu: Stop treating in-kernel CPU-bound workloads as errors") added a (relatively) short-timeout call to resched_cpu().

Byungchul Park authored
The print_other_cpu_stall() function currently unconditionally invokes rcu_print_detail_task_stall(). This is OK because if there was a stall sufficient to cause print_other_cpu_stall() to be invoked, that stall is very likely to persist through the entire print_other_cpu_stall() execution. However, if the stall did not persist, the variable ndetected will be zero, and that variable is already tested in an "if" statement. Therefore, this commit moves the call to rcu_print_detail_task_stall() under that pre-existing "if" to improve readability, with a very rare reduction in overhead.

RCU_EXPEDITE_BOOT should speed up the boot process by enforcing synchronize_rcu_expedited() instead of synchronize_rcu() during the boot process. There should be no reason why one does not want this and there is no need worry about real time latency at this point. Therefore make it default. Note that users wishing to avoid expediting entirely, for example when bringing up new hardware possibly having flaky IPIs, can use the rcu_normal boot parameter to override boot-time expediting.

Paul E. McKenney authored
The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases during bootup. In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period. In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods, workqueues are not yet running. During this time, any attempt to do a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly, depending). In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and everything works normally. This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase. This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit 8b355e3b ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue"). Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs parameter). The callchain from the failure case is as follows: early_amd_iommu_init() |-> acpi_put_table(ivrs_base); |-> acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc); |-> acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc); |-> acpi_tb_release_table(...) |-> acpi_os_unmap_memory |-> acpi_os_unmap_iomem |-> acpi_os_map_cleanup |-> synchronize_rcu_expedited The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y, which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were initialized, which did not go well. This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods to proceed during this mid-boot phase. This commit is therefore a fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put forward post-merge-window in v4.10. This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting() function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited path. The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase. Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used. Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals (or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned through core_initcall() time.

Several people report seeing warnings about inconsistent radix tree nodes followed by crashes in the workingset code, which all looked like use-after-free access from the shadow node shrinker. Dave Jones managed to reproduce the issue with a debug patch applied, which confirmed that the radix tree shrinking indeed frees shadow nodes while they are still linked to the shadow LRU: WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 53 at lib/radix-tree.c:643 delete_node+0x1e4/0x200 CPU: 2 PID: 53 Comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 4.10.0-rc2-think+ #3 Call Trace: delete_node+0x1e4/0x200 __radix_tree_delete_node+0xd/0x10 shadow_lru_isolate+0xe6/0x220 __list_lru_walk_one.isra.4+0x9b/0x190 list_lru_walk_one+0x23/0x30 scan_shadow_nodes+0x2e/0x40 shrink_slab.part.44+0x23d/0x5d0 shrink_node+0x22c/0x330 kswapd+0x392/0x8f0 This is the WARN_ON_ONCE(!list_empty(&node->private_list)) placed in the inlined radix_tree_shrink(). The problem is with 14b46879 ("mm: workingset: move shadow entry tracking to radix tree exceptional tracking"), which passes an update callback into the radix tree to link and unlink shadow leaf nodes when tree entries change, but forgot to pass the callback when reclaiming a shadow node. While the reclaimed shadow node itself is unlinked by the shrinker, its deletion from the tree can cause the left-most leaf node in the tree to be shrunk. If that happens to be a shadow node as well, we don't unlink it from the LRU as we should. Consider this tree, where the s are shadow entries: root->rnode | [0 n] | | [s ] [sssss] Now the shadow node shrinker reclaims the rightmost leaf node through the shadow node LRU: root->rnode | [0 ] | [s ] Because the parent of the deleted node is the first level below the root and has only one child in the left-most slot, the intermediate level is shrunk and the node containing the single shadow is put in its place: root->rnode | [s ] The shrinker again sees a single left-most slot in a first level node and thus decides to store the shadow in root->rnode directly and free the node - which is a leaf node on the shadow node LRU. root->rnode | s Without the update callback, the freed node remains on the shadow LRU, where it causes later shrinker runs to crash. Pass the node updater callback into __radix_tree_delete_node() in case the deletion causes the left-most branch in the tree to collapse too. Also add warnings when linked nodes are freed right away, rather than wait for the use-after-free when the list is scanned much later.

4.10-rc loadtest (even on x86, and even without THPCache) fails with "fork: Cannot allocate memory" or some such; and /proc/meminfo shows PageTables growing. Commit 953c66c2 ("mm: THP page cache support for ppc64") that got merged in rc1 removed the freeing of an unused preallocated pagetable after do_fault_around() has called map_pages(). This is usually a good optimization, so that the followup doesn't have to reallocate one; but it's not sufficient to shift the freeing into alloc_set_pte(), since there are failure cases (most commonly VM_FAULT_RETRY) which never reach finish_fault(). Check and free it at the outer level in do_fault(), then we don't need to worry in alloc_set_pte(), and can restore that to how it was (I cannot find any reason to pte_free() under lock as it was doing). And fix a separate pagetable leak, or crash, introduced by the same change, that could only show up on some ppc64: why does do_set_pmd()'s failure case attempt to withdraw a pagetable when it never deposited one, at the same time overwriting (so leaking) the vmf->prealloc_pte? Residue of an earlier implementation, perhaps? Delete it. Fixes: 953c66c2 ("mm: THP page cache support for ppc64") Cc: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Kirill A.

Pull IOMMU fixes from Joerg Roedel: "Three fixes queued up: - fix an issue with command buffer overflow handling in the AMD IOMMU driver - add an additional context entry flush to the Intel VT-d driver to make sure any old context entry from kdump copying is flushed out of the cache - correct the encoding of the PASID table size in the Intel VT-d driver" * tag 'iommu-fixes-v4.10-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu: iommu/amd: Fix the left value check of cmd buffer iommu/vt-d: Fix pasid table size encoding iommu/vt-d: Flush old iommu caches for kdump when the device gets context mapped

Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These fix a device enumeration problem related to _ADR matching and an IOMMU initialization issue related to the DMAR table missing, remove an excessive function call from the core ACPI code, update an error message in the ACPI WDAT watchdog driver and add a way to work around problems with unhandled GPE notifications. Specifics: - Fix a device enumeration issue leading to incorrect associations between ACPI device objects and platform device objects representing physical devices if the given device object has both _ADR and _HID (Rafael Wysocki). - Avoid passing NULL to acpi_put_table() during IOMMU initialization which triggers a (rightful) warning from ACPICA (Rafael Wysocki). - Drop an excessive call to acpi_dma_deconfigure() from the core code that binds ACPI device objects to device objects representing physical devices (Lorenzo Pieralisi). - Update an error message in the ACPI WDAT watchdog driver to make it provide more useful information (Mika Westerberg). - Add a mechanism to work around issues with unhandled GPE notifications that occur during system initialization and cannot be prevented by means of sysfs (Lv Zheng)" * tag 'acpi-4.10-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / DMAR: Avoid passing NULL to acpi_put_table() ACPI / scan: Prefer devices without _HID/_CID for _ADR matching ACPI / watchdog: Print out error number when device creation fails ACPI / sysfs: Provide quirk mechanism to prevent GPE flooding ACPI: Drop misplaced acpi_dma_deconfigure() call from acpi_bind_one()

Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These fix a few issues in the intel_pstate driver, a documetation issue, a false-positive compiler warning in the generic power domains framework and two problems in the devfreq subsystem. They also update the MAINTAINERS entry for devfreq and add a new "compatible" string to the generic cpufreq-dt driver. Specifics: - Fix a few intel_pstate driver issues: add missing locking it two places, avoid exposing a useless debugfs interface and keep the attribute values in sysfs in sync (Rafael Wysocki). - Drop confusing kernel-doc references related to power management and ACPI from the driver API manual (Rafael Wysocki). - Make a false-positive compiler warning in the generic power domains framework go away (Augusto Mecking Caringi). - Fix two initialization issues in the devfreq subsystem and update the MAINTAINERS entry for it (Chanwoo Choi). - Add a new "compatible" string for APM X-Gene 2 to the generic DT cpufreq driver (Hoan Tran)" * tag 'pm-4.10-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: cpufreq: dt: Add support for APM X-Gene 2 PM / devfreq: exynos-bus: Fix the wrong return value PM / devfreq: Fix the bug of devfreq_add_device when governor is NULL MAINTAINERS: Add myself as reviewer for DEVFREQ subsystem support PM / docs: Drop confusing kernel-doc references from infrastructure.rst PM / domains: Fix 'may be used uninitialized' build warning cpufreq: intel_pstate: Always keep all limits settings in sync cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use locking in intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use locking in intel_pstate_resume() cpufreq: intel_pstate: Do not expose PID parameters in passive mode

So they can figure out what is the optimal number of pages that can be contingously stitched together without fear of bounce buffer. We also expose an mechanism for sub-users of SWIOTLB API, such as Xen-SWIOTLB to set the max segment value. And lastly if swiotlb=force is set (which mandates we bounce buffer everything) we set max_segment so at least we can bounce buffer one 4K page instead of a giant 512KB one for which we may not have space.
