Yafang Shao 4f5fbd78a7 rcu: validate arguments for rcu tracepoints
When CONFIG_RCU_TRACE is not set, all these tracepoints are defined as
do-nothing macro.
We'd better make those inline functions that take proper arguments.

As RCU_TRACE() is defined as do-nothing marco as well when
CONFIG_RCU_TRACE is not set, so we can clean it up.

Paul E. McKenney 10462d6f58 rcu: Move RCU CPU stall-warning code out of update.c
The RCU CPU stall-warning code for normal grace periods is currently
scattered across three files, due to earlier Tiny RCU support for RCU
CPU stall warnings and for old Kconfig options that have long since
been retired.  Given that it is hard for the lead RCU maintainer to
find relevant stall-warning code, it would be good to consolidate it.
This commit starts this process by moving stall-warning code from
kernel/rcu/update.c to a new kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h file.

Note that the definitions of rcu_cpu_stall_suppress and
rcu_cpu_stall_timeout must remain in kernel/rcu/update.h to provide
compatibility for kernel boot parameter lists.

Zhouyi Zhou 5d8a752e31 rcu: Fix force_qs_rnp() header comment
Previously, threads blocked on offlining CPUS were migrated to the
root rcu_node structure, thus requiring RCU priority boosting on this
structure.  However, since commit d19fb8d1f3 ("rcu: Don't migrate
blocked tasks even if all corresponding CPUs offline"), RCU does not
migrate blocked tasks.  Consequently, RCU no longer does RCU priority
boosting on the root rcu_node structure as of commit 1be0085b51 ("rcu:
Don't initiate RCU priority boosting on root rcu_node").

This commit therefore brings comments for the force_qs_rnp() function's
header comment in line with this new no-root-boosting reality.

Neeraj Upadhyay 6973032a60 rcu: Default jiffies_to_sched_qs to jiffies_till_sched_qs
The current code only calls adjust_jiffies_till_sched_qs() if
jiffies_till_sched_qs is left at its default value, so when the
jiffies_till_sched_qs kernel-boot parameter actually is specified,
jiffies_to_sched_qs will be left with the value zero, which
will result in useless slowdowns of cond_resched().  This commit
therefore changes rcu_init_geometry() to unconditionally invoke
adjust_jiffies_till_sched_qs(), which ensures that jiffies_to_sched_qs
will be initialized in all cases, thus maintaining good cond_resched()
performance.

Neeraj Upadhyay 0f58d2ac2c rcu: Fix self-wakeups for grace-period kthread
The current rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function uses in_interrupt()
and thus does a self-wakeup from all interrupt contexts, including
the pointless case where the GP kthread happens to be running with
bottom halves disabled, along with the impossible case where the GP
kthread is running within an NMI handler (you are not supposed to invoke
rcu_gp_kthread_wake() from within an NMI handler.  This commit therefore
replaces the in_interrupt() with in_irq(), so that the self-wakeups
happen only from handlers for hardware interrupts and softirqs.
This also makes the code match the comment.

Liu Song 3ffe3d1adc rcu: Set rcutree.kthread_prio sysfs access to read-only
The rcutree.kthread_prio kernel-boot parameter is used to set the
priority for boost (rcub), per-CPU (rcuc), and grace-period (rcu_preempt
or rcu_sched) kthreads.  It is also used by rcutorture to check whether
it is possible to meaningfully test RCU priority boosting.  However,
all of these cases will either ignore or be confused by any post-boot
changes to rcutree.kthread_prio.

Note that the user really can change the priorities of all of these
kthreads using chrt, given sufficient privileges.  Therefore, the
read-write nature of sysfs access to rcutree.kthread_prio is thus at
best an attractive nuisance.

This commit therefore changes sysfs access to rcutree.kthread_prio to
be read-only.

Joel Fernandes (Google) 671a63517c rcu: Avoid unnecessary softirq when system is idle
When there are no callbacks pending on an idle system, I noticed that
RCU softirq is continuously firing. During this the cpu_no_qs is set to
false, and core_needs_qs is set to true indefinitely. This causes
rcu_process_callbacks to be repeatedly called, even though the node
corresponding to the CPU has that CPU's mask bit cleared and the system
is idle. I believe the race is when such mask clearing is done during
idle CPU scan of the quiescent state forcing stage in the kthread
instead of the softirq. Since the rnp mask is cleared, but the flags on
the CPU's rdp are not cleared, the CPU thinks it still needs to report
to core RCU.

Cure this by clearing the core_needs_qs flag when the CPU detects that
its node is already updated which will avoid the unwanted softirq raises
to the benefit of real-time systems.

Test: Ran rcutorture for various tree RCU configs.

Paul E. McKenney e85e6a21b2 rcu: Unconditionally expedite during suspend/hibernate
The rcu_pm_notify() function refuses to switch to/from expedited grace
periods on systems with more than 256 CPUs due to the serialized
initialization of expedited grace periods.  However, expedited grace
periods are now initialized in parallel, removing this concern.
This commit therefore removes the checks from rcu_pm_notify(), so that
expedited grace periods are used unconditionally during suspend/resume
and hibernate/wake operations.

As always, real-time workloads wishing to completely avoid expedited
grace periods can use the rcupdate.rcu_normal= kernel parameter.

Prohibit probing on the functions called before kprobe_int3_handler()
in do_int3(). More specifically, ftrace_int3_handler(),

Since those are handled before kprobe_int3_handler(), probing those
functions can cause a breakpoint recursion and crash the kernel.

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior e81baf4cb1 srcu: Remove srcu_queue_delayed_work_on()
srcu_queue_delayed_work_on() disables preemption (and therefore CPU
hotplug in RCU's case) and then checks based on its own accounting if a
CPU is online. If the CPU is online it uses queue_delayed_work_on()
otherwise it fallbacks to queue_delayed_work().
The problem here is that queue_work() on -RT does not work with disabled
preemption.

queue_work_on() works also on an offlined CPU. queue_delayed_work_on()
has the problem that it is possible to program a timer on an offlined
CPU. This timer will fire once the CPU is online again. But until then,
the timer remains programmed and nothing will happen.

Add a local timer which will fire (as requested per delay) on the local
CPU and then enqueue the work on the specific CPU.

RCUtorture testing with SRCU-P for 24h showed no problems.

RCU, where most of what it does is invoke callbacks, it no longer makes
much sense for Tree RCU, especially given that the actually callback
invocation is relegated to rcu_do_batch(), or, for no-CBs CPUs, to the
rcuo kthreads.  Especially in the latter case, rcu_process_callbacks()
has very little to do with actual callbacks.  A better description of
this function is that it performs RCU's core processing.

This commit therefore changes the name of Tree RCU's rcu_process_callbacks()
function to rcu_core(), which also has the virtue of being consistent with
the existing invoke_rcu_core() function.

While in the area, the header comment is reworked.

Paul E. McKenney c98cac603f rcu: Rename rcu_check_callbacks() to rcu_sched_clock_irq()
The name rcu_check_callbacks() arguably made sense back in the early
2000s when RCU was quite a bit simpler than it is today, but it has
become quite misleading, especially with the advent of dyntick-idle
and NO_HZ_FULL.  The rcu_check_callbacks() function is RCU's hook into
the scheduling-clock interrupt, and is now but one of many ways that
callbacks get promoted to invocable state.

This commit therefore changes the name to rcu_sched_clock_irq(),
which is the same number of characters and clearly indicates this
function's relation to the rest of the Linux kernel.  In addition, for
the sake of consistency, rcu_flavor_check_callbacks() is also renamed
to rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq().

While in the area, the header comments for both functions are reworked.

Zhang, Jun 13dc7d0c7a rcu: Prevent needless ->gp_seq_needed update in __note_gp_changes()
Currently, __note_gp_changes() checks to see if the rcu_node structure's
->gp_seq_needed is greater than or equal to that of the rcu_data
structure, and if so, updates the rcu_data structure's ->gp_seq_needed
field.  This results in a useless store in the case where the two fields
are equal.

This commit therefore carries out this store only in the case where the
rcu_node structure's ->gp_seq_needed is strictly greater than that of
the rcu_data structure.

Zhang, Jun 1d1f898df6 rcu: Do RCU GP kthread self-wakeup from softirq and interrupt
The rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function is invoked when it might be necessary
to wake the RCU grace-period kthread.  Because self-wakeups are normally
a useless waste of CPU cycles, if rcu_gp_kthread_wake() is invoked from
this kthread, it naturally refuses to do the wakeup.

Unfortunately, natural though it might be, this heuristic fails when
rcu_gp_kthread_wake() is invoked from an interrupt or softirq handler
that interrupted the grace-period kthread just after the final check of
the wait-event condition but just before the schedule() call.  In this
case, a wakeup is required, even though the call to rcu_gp_kthread_wake()
is within the RCU grace-period kthread's context.  Failing to provide
this wakeup can result in grace periods failing to start, which in turn
results in out-of-memory conditions.

This race window is quite narrow, but it actually did happen during real
testing.  It would of course need to be fixed even if it was strictly
theoretical in nature.

This patch does not Cc stable because it does not apply cleanly to
earlier kernel versions.

Paul E. McKenney fd897573fa rcu: Improve diagnostics for failed RCU grace-period start
If a grace period fails to start (for example, because you commented
out the last two lines of rcu_accelerate_cbs_unlocked()), rcu_core()
will invoke rcu_check_gp_start_stall(), which will notice and complain.
However, this complaint is lacking crucial debugging information such
as when the last wakeup executed and what the value of ->gp_seq was at
that time.  This commit therefore removes the current pr_alert() from
rcu_check_gp_start_stall(), instead invoking show_rcu_gp_kthreads(),
which has been updated to print the needed information, which is collected
by rcu_gp_kthread_wake().

Paul E. McKenney 9cf422a8e7 rcu: Accommodate zero jiffies_till_first_fqs and kthread kicking
It is perfectly fine to set the rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs boot
parameter to zero, in fact, this can be useful on specialty systems that
usually have at least one idle CPU and that need fast grace periods.
This is because this setting causes the RCU grace-period kthread to
scan for idle threads immediately after grace-period initialization,
as opposed to waiting several jiffies to do so.

It is also perfectly fine to set the rcutree.rcu_kick_kthreads kernel
parameter, which gives the RCU grace-period kthread an extra wakeup
if it doesn't make progress for a period of three times the setting of
the rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs boot parameter.  This is of course
problematic when the value of this parameter is zero, as it can result
in unnecessary wakeup IPIs along with unnecessary WARN_ONCE() invocations.

This commit therefore defers kthread kicking for at least two jiffies,
regardless of the setting of rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs.

Paul E. McKenney 260e1e4fd8 rcu: Discard separate per-CPU callback counts
Back when there were multiple flavors of RCU, it was necessary to
separately count lazy and non-lazy callbacks for each CPU.  These counts
were used in CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ kernels to determine how long a newly
idle CPU should be allowed to sleep before handling its RCU callbacks.
But now that there is only one flavor, the callback counts for a given
CPU's sole rcu_data structure are the counts for that CPU.

This commit therefore removes the rcu_data structure's ->nonlazy_posted
and ->nonlazy_posted_snap fields, the rcu_idle_count_callbacks_posted()
and rcu_cpu_has_callbacks() functions, repurposes the rcu_data structure's
->all_lazy field to record the laziness state at the beginning of the
latest idle sojourn, and modifies CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ RCU CPU stall
warnings accordingly.
