Paul E. McKenney 313517fc44 rcu: Make expedited GPs correctly handle hardware CPU insertion
The update of the ->expmaskinitnext and of ->ncpus are unsynchronized,
with the value of ->ncpus being incremented long before the corresponding
->expmaskinitnext mask is updated.  If an RCU expedited grace period
sees ->ncpus change, it will update the ->expmaskinit masks from the new
->expmaskinitnext masks.  But it is possible that ->ncpus has already
been updated, but the ->expmaskinitnext masks still have their old values.
For the current expedited grace period, no harm done.  The CPU could not
have been online before the grace period started, so there is no need to
wait for its non-existent pre-existing readers.

But the next RCU expedited grace period is in a world of hurt.  The value
of ->ncpus has already been updated, so this grace period will assume
that the ->expmaskinitnext masks have not changed.  But they have, and
they won't be taken into account until the next never-been-online CPU
comes online.  This means that RCU will be ignoring some CPUs that it
should be paying attention to.

The solution is to update ->ncpus and ->expmaskinitnext while holding
the ->lock for the rcu_node structure containing the ->expmaskinitnext
mask.  Because smp_store_release() is now used to update ->ncpus and
smp_load_acquire() is now used to locklessly read it, if the expedited
grace period sees ->ncpus change, then the updating CPU has to
already be holding the corresponding ->lock.  Therefore, when the
expedited grace period later acquires that ->lock, it is guaranteed
to see the new value of ->expmaskinitnext.

On the other hand, if the expedited grace period loads ->ncpus just
before an update, earlier full memory barriers guarantee that
the incoming CPU isn't far enough along to be running any RCU readers.

This commit therefore makes the required change.

Paul E. McKenney 031aeee000 srcu: Improve rcu_seq grace-period-counter abstraction
The expedited grace-period code contains several open-coded shifts
know the format of an rcu_seq grace-period counter, which is not
particularly good style.  This commit therefore creates a new
rcu_seq_ctr() function that extracts the counter portion of the
counter, and an rcu_seq_state() function that extracts the low-order
state bit.  This commit prepares for SRCU callback parallelization,
which will require two state bits.

Paul E. McKenney 3c345825c8 rcu: Expedited wakeups need to be fully ordered
Expedited grace periods use workqueue handlers that wake up the requesters,
but there is no lock mediating this wakeup.  Therefore, memory barriers
are required to ensure that the handler's memory references are seen by
all to occur before synchronize_*_expedited() returns to its caller.

Paul E. McKenney 9226b10d78 rcu: Place guard on rcu_all_qs() and rcu_note_context_switch() actions
The rcu_all_qs() and rcu_note_context_switch() do a series of checks,
taking various actions to supply RCU with quiescent states, depending
on the outcomes of the various checks.  This is a bit much for scheduling
fastpaths, so this commit creates a separate ->rcu_urgent_qs field in
the rcu_dynticks structure that acts as a global guard for these checks.
Thus, in the common case, rcu_all_qs() and rcu_note_context_switch()
check the ->rcu_urgent_qs field, find it false, and simply return.

Paul E. McKenney 52d7e48b86 rcu: Narrow early boot window of illegal synchronous grace periods
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
8b355e3bc1 ("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.

Paul E. McKenney 0742ac3e2f rcu: Make expedited grace periods recheck dyntick idle state
Expedited grace periods check dyntick-idle state, and avoid sending
IPIs to idle CPUs, including those running guest OSes, and, on NOHZ_FULL
kernels, nohz_full CPUs.  However, the kernel has been observed checking
a CPU while it was non-idle, but sending the IPI after it has gone
idle.  This commit therefore rechecks idle state immediately before
sending the IPI, refraining from IPIing CPUs that have since gone idle.

Paul E. McKenney 98834b8378 rcu: Exclude RCU-offline CPUs from expedited grace periods

Paul E. McKenney 8b355e3bc1 rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue
The current implementation of expedited grace periods has the user
task drive the grace period.  This works, but has downsides: (1) The
user task must awaken tasks piggybacking on this grace period, which
can result in latencies rivaling that of the grace period itself, and
(2) User tasks can receive signals, which interfere with RCU CPU stall
warnings.

This commit therefore uses workqueues to drive the grace periods, so
that the user task need not do the awakening.  A subsequent commit
will remove the now-unnecessary code allowing for signals.

Mark Rutland bc75e99983 rcu: Correctly handle sparse possible cpus
In many cases in the RCU tree code, we iterate over the set of cpus for
a leaf node described by rcu_node::grplo and rcu_node::grphi, checking
per-cpu data for each cpu in this range. However, if the set of possible
cpus is sparse, some cpus described in this range are not possible, and
thus no per-cpu region will have been allocated (or initialised) for
them by the generic percpu code.

Erroneous accesses to a per-cpu area for these !possible cpus may fault
or may hit other data depending on the addressed generated when the
erroneous per cpu offset is applied. In practice, both cases have been
observed on arm64 hardware (the former being silent, but detectable with
additional patches).

To avoid issues resulting from this, we must iterate over the set of
*possible* cpus for a given leaf node. This patch add a new helper,
for_each_leaf_node_possible_cpu, to enable this. As iteration is often
intertwined with rcu_node local bitmask manipulation, a new
leaf_node_cpu_bit helper is added to make this simpler and more
consistent. The RCU tree code is made to use both of these where
appropriate.

Without this patch, running reboot at a shell can result in an oops
like:

People have been having some difficulty finding their way around the
RCU code.  This commit therefore pulls some of the expedited grace-period
code from tree_plugin.h to a new tree_exp.h file.  This commit is strictly
code movement.

Paul E. McKenney 3549c2bc2c rcu: Move expedited code from tree.c to tree_exp.h
People have been having some difficulty finding their way around the
RCU code.  This commit therefore pulls some of the expedited grace-period
code from tree.c to a new tree_exp.h file.  This commit is strictly code
movement, with the exception of a forward declaration that was added
for the sync_sched_exp_online_cleanup() function.

A subsequent commit will move the remaining expedited grace-period code
from tree_plugin.h to tree_exp.h.
