rcu/nocb: Avoid needless wakeups of no-CBs grace-period kthread
Currently, the code provides an extra wakeup for the no-CBs grace-period
kthread if one of its CPUs is generating excessive numbers of callbacks.
But satisfying though it is to wake something up when things are going
south, unless the thing being awakened can actually help solve the
problem, that extra wakeup does nothing but consume additional CPU time,
which is exactly what you don't want during a call_rcu() flood.
This commit therefore avoids doing anything if the corresponding
no-CBs callback kthread is going full tilt. Otherwise, if advancing
callbacks immediately might help and if the leaf rcu_node structure's
lock is immediately available, this commit invokes a new variant of
rcu_advance_cbs() that advances callbacks only if doing so won't require
awakening the grace-period kthread (not to be confused with any of the
no-CBs grace-period kthreads).

rcu/nocb: Provide separate no-CBs grace-period kthreads
Currently, there is one no-CBs rcuo kthread per CPU, and these kthreads
are divided into groups. The first rcuo kthread to come online in a
given group is that group's leader, and the leader both waits for grace
periods and invokes its CPU's callbacks. The non-leader rcuo kthreads
only invoke callbacks.
This works well in the real-time/embedded environments for which it was
intended because such environments tend not to generate all that many
callbacks. However, given huge floods of callbacks, it is possible for
the leader kthread to be stuck invoking callbacks while its followers
wait helplessly while their callbacks pile up. This is a good recipe
for an OOM, and rcutorture's new callback-flood capability does generate
such OOMs.
One strategy would be to wait until such OOMs start happening in
production, but similar OOMs have in fact happened starting in 2018.
It would therefore be wise to take a more proactive approach.
This commit therefore features per-CPU rcuo kthreads that do nothing
but invoke callbacks. Instead of having one of these kthreads act as
leader, each group has a separate rcog kthread that handles grace periods
for its group. Because these rcuog kthreads do not invoke callbacks,
callback floods on one CPU no longer block callbacks from reaching the
rcuc callback-invocation kthreads on other CPUs.
This change does introduce additional kthreads, however:
1. The number of additional kthreads is about the square root of
the number of CPUs, so that a 4096-CPU system would have only
about 64 additional kthreads. Note that recent changes
decreased the number of rcuo kthreads by a factor of two
(CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) or even three (CONFIG_PREEMPT=y), so
this still represents a significant improvement on most systems.
2. The leading "rcuo" of the rcuog kthreads should allow existing
scripting to affinity these additional kthreads as needed, the
same as for the rcuop and rcuos kthreads. (There are no longer
any rcuob kthreads.)
3. A state-machine approach was considered and rejected. Although
this would allow the rcuo kthreads to continue their dual
leader/follower roles, it complicates callback invocation
and makes it more difficult to consolidate rcuo callback
invocation with existing softirq callback invocation.
The introduction of rcuog kthreads should thus be acceptable.

rcuperf: Make rcuperf kernel test more robust for !expedited mode
It is possible that the rcuperf kernel test runs concurrently with init
starting up. During this time, the system is running all grace periods
as expedited. However, rcuperf can also be run for normal GP tests.
Right now, it depends on a holdoff time before starting the test to
ensure grace periods start later. This works fine with the default
holdoff time however it is not robust in situations where init takes
greater than the holdoff time to finish running. Or, as in my case:
I modified the rcuperf test locally to also run a thread that did
preempt disable/enable in a loop. This had the effect of slowing down
init. The end result was that the "batches:" counter in rcuperf was 0
causing a division by 0 error in the results. This counter was 0 because
only expedited GPs seem to happen, not normal ones which led to the
rcu_state.gp_seq counter remaining constant across grace periods which
unexpectedly happen to be expedited. The system was running expedited
RCU all the time because rcu_unexpedited_gp() would not have run yet
from init. In other words, the test would concurrently with init
booting in expedited GP mode.
To fix this properly, this commit waits until system_state is set to
SYSTEM_RUNNING before starting the test. This change is made just
before kernel_init() invokes rcu_end_inkernel_boot(), and this latter
is what turns off boot-time expediting of RCU grace periods.

rcu: Restore barrier() to rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock()
Commit bb73c52bad36 ("rcu: Don't disable preemption for Tiny and Tree
RCU readers") removed the barrier() calls from rcu_read_lock() and
rcu_write_lock() in CONFIG_PREEMPT=n&&CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=n kernels.
Within RCU, this commit was OK, but it failed to account for things like
get_user() that can pagefault and that can be reordered by the compiler.
Lack of the barrier() calls in rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock()
can cause these page faults to migrate into RCU read-side critical
sections, which in CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels could result in too-short
grace periods and arbitrary misbehavior. Please see commit 386afc91144b
("spinlocks and preemption points need to be at least compiler barriers")
and Linus's commit 66be4e66a7f4 ("rcu: locking and unlocking need to
always be at least barriers"), this last of which restores the barrier()
call to both rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock().
This commit removes barrier() calls that are no longer needed given that

[ paulmck: Fix embarrassing typo located by Alan Stern. ]
It turns out that tick_broadcast_offline() was an innocent bystander.
After all, interrupts are supposed to be disabled throughout
take_cpu_down(), and therefore should have been disabled upon entry to
tick_offline_cpu() and thus to tick_broadcast_offline(). This suggests
that one of the CPU-hotplug notifiers was incorrectly enabling interrupts,
and leaving them enabled on return.
Some debugging code showed that the culprit was sched_cpu_dying().
It had irqs enabled after return from sched_tick_stop(). Which in turn
had irqs enabled after return from cancel_delayed_work_sync(). Which is a
wrapper around __cancel_work_timer(). Which can sleep in the case where
something else is concurrently trying to cancel the same delayed work,
and as Thomas Gleixner pointed out on IRC, sleeping is a decidedly bad
idea when you are invoked from take_cpu_down(), regardless of the state
you leave interrupts in upon return.
Code inspection located no reason why the delayed work absolutely
needed to be canceled from sched_tick_stop(): The work is not
bound to the outgoing CPU by design, given that the whole point is
to collect statistics without disturbing the outgoing CPU.
This commit therefore simply drops the cancel_delayed_work_sync() from
sched_tick_stop(). Instead, a new ->state field is added to the tick_work
structure so that the delayed-work handler function sched_tick_remote()
can avoid reposting itself. A cpu_is_offline() check is also added to
sched_tick_remote() to avoid mucking with the state of an offlined CPU
(though it does appear safe to do so). The sched_tick_start() and
sched_tick_stop() functions also update ->state, and sched_tick_start()
also schedules the delayed work if ->state indicates that it is not
already in flight.

rcu: Simplify rcu_note_context_switch exit from critical section
Because __rcu_read_unlock() can be preempted just before the call to
rcu_read_unlock_special(), it is possible for a task to be preempted just
before it would have fully exited its RCU read-side critical section.
This would result in a needless extension of that critical section until
that task was resumed, which might in turn result in a needlessly
long grace period, needless RCU priority boosting, and needless
force-quiescent-state actions. Therefore, rcu_note_context_switch()
invokes __rcu_read_unlock() followed by rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() when
it detects this situation. This action by rcu_note_context_switch()
ends the RCU read-side critical section immediately.
Of course, once the task resumes, it will invoke rcu_read_unlock_special()
redundantly. This is harmless because the fact that a preemption
happened means that interrupts, preemption, and softirqs cannot
have been disabled, so there would be no deferred quiescent state.
While ->rcu_read_lock_nesting remains less than zero, none of the
->rcu_read_unlock_special.b bits can be set, and they were all zeroed by
the call to rcu_note_context_switch() at task-preemption time. Therefore,
setting ->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.exp_hint to false has no effect.
Therefore, the extra call to rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore()
would return immediately. With one possible exception, which is
if an expedited grace period started just as the task was being
resumed, which could leave ->exp_deferred_qs set. This will cause
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore() to invoke rcu_report_exp_rdp(),
reporting the quiescent state, just as it should. (Such an expedited
grace period won't affect the preemption code path due to interrupts
having already been disabled.)
But when rcu_note_context_switch() invokes __rcu_read_unlock(), it
is doing so with preemption disabled, hence __rcu_read_unlock() will
unconditionally defer the quiescent state, only to immediately invoke
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs(), thus immediately reporting the deferred
quiescent state. It turns out to be safe (and faster) to instead
just invoke rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() without the __rcu_read_unlock()
middleman.
Because this is the invocation during the preemption (as opposed to
the invocation just after the resume), at least one of the bits in
->rcu_read_unlock_special.b must be set and ->rcu_read_lock_nesting
must be negative. This means that rcu_preempt_need_deferred_qs() must
return true, avoiding the early exit from rcu_preempt_deferred_qs().
Thus, rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore() will be invoked immediately,
as required.
This commit therefore simplifies the CONFIG_PREEMPT=y version of
rcu_note_context_switch() by removing the "else if" branch of its
"if" statement. This change means that all callers that would have
invoked rcu_read_unlock_special() followed by rcu_preempt_deferred_qs()
will now simply invoke rcu_preempt_deferred_qs(), thus avoiding the
rcu_read_unlock_special() middleman when __rcu_read_unlock() is preempted.

rcu: Make rcu_read_unlock_special() checks match raise_softirq_irqoff()
Threaded interrupts provide additional interesting interactions between
RCU and raise_softirq() that can result in self-deadlocks in v5.0-2 of
the Linux kernel. These self-deadlocks can be provoked in susceptible
kernels within a few minutes using the following rcutorture command on
an 8-CPU system:
Although post-v5.2 RCU commits have at least greatly reduced the
probability of these self-deadlocks, this was entirely by accident.
Although this sort of accident should be rowdily celebrated on those
rare occasions when it does occur, such celebrations should be quickly
followed by a principled patch, which is what this patch purports to be.
The key point behind this patch is that when in_interrupt() returns
true, __raise_softirq_irqoff() will never attempt a wakeup. Therefore,
if in_interrupt(), calls to raise_softirq*() are both safe and
extremely cheap.
This commit therefore replaces the in_irq() calls in the "if" statement
in rcu_read_unlock_special() with in_interrupt() and simplifies the
"if" condition to the following:
if (irqs_were_disabled && use_softirq &&
(in_interrupt() ||
(exp && !t->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.deferred_qs))) {
raise_softirq_irqoff(RCU_SOFTIRQ);
} else {
/* Appeal to the scheduler. */
}
The rationale behind the "if" condition is as follows:
1. irqs_were_disabled: If interrupts are enabled, we should
instead appeal to the scheduler so as to let the upcoming
irq_enable()/local_bh_enable() do the rescheduling for us.
2. use_softirq: If this kernel isn't using softirq, then
raise_softirq_irqoff() will be unhelpful.
3. a. in_interrupt(): If this returns true, the subsequent
call to raise_softirq_irqoff() is guaranteed not to
do a wakeup, so that call will be both very cheap and
quite safe.
b. Otherwise, if !in_interrupt() the raise_softirq_irqoff()
might do a wakeup, which is expensive and, in some
contexts, unsafe.
i. The "exp" (an expedited RCU grace period is being
blocked) says that the wakeup is worthwhile, and:
ii. The !.deferred_qs says that scheduler locks
cannot be held, so the wakeup will be safe.
Backporting this requires considerable care, so no auto-backport, please!

In !use_softirq runs, we clearly cannot rely on raise_softirq() and
its lightweight bit setting, so we must instead do some form of wakeup.
In the absence of a self-IPI when interrupts are disabled, these wakeups
can be delayed until the next interrupt occurs. This means that calling
invoke_rcu_core() doesn't actually do any expediting.
In this case, it is better to take the "else" clause, which sets the
current CPU's resched bits and, if there is an expedited grace period
in flight, uses IRQ-work to force the needed self-IPI. This commit
therefore removes the "else if" clause that calls invoke_rcu_core().

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"A collection of locking and async operations fixes for v5.3-rc2. These
had been soaking in a branch targeting the merge window, but missed
due to a regression hunt. This fixed up version has otherwise been in
-next this past week with no reported issues.
In order to gain confidence in the locking changes the pull also
includes a debug / instrumentation patch to enable lockdep coverage
for libnvdimm subsystem operations that depend on the device_lock for
exclusion. As mentioned in the changelog it is a hack, but it works
and documents the locking expectations of the sub-system in a way that
others can use lockdep to verify. The driver core touches got an ack
from Greg.
Summary:
- Fix duplicate device_unregister() calls (multiple threads competing
to do unregister work when scheduling device removal from a sysfs
attribute of the self-same device).
- Fix badblocks registration order bug. Ensure region badblocks are
initialized in advance of namespace registration.
- Fix a deadlock between the bus lock and probe operations.
- Export device-core infrastructure to coordinate async operations
via the device ->dead state.
- Add device-core infrastructure to validate device_lock() usage with
lockdep"

"Dave seems to collect an entire streak of things happening, so again
me typing pull summary.
Nothing nefarious here, most of the fixes are for new stuff or things
users won't see. The amd-display patches are a bit different, and very
much look like they should have at least some cc: stable tags. Might
be amd is a bit too comfortable with their internal tree and not
enough looking at upstream. Dave&me are looking into this, in case
something needs rectified with process here.
Also no intel fixes pull, but intel CI is general become rather good,
still I guess expect a notch more for -rc3.

block: fix max segment size handling in blk_queue_virt_boundary
We should only set the max segment size to unlimited if we actually
have a virt boundary. Otherwise we accidentally clear that limit
when called from the SCSI midlayer, which always calls
blk_queue_virt_boundary, even if that mask is 0.
