70060b8770 rcu: Shrink each possible cpu krcp
CPUs can go offline shortly after kfree_call_rcu() has been invoked,
which can leave memory stranded until those CPUs come back online.
This commit therefore drains the kcrp of each CPU, not just the
ones that happen to be online.

53922270d2 rcu/segcblist: Prevent useless GP start if no CBs to accelerate
The rcu_segcblist_accelerate() function returns true iff it is necessary
to request another grace period.  A tracing session showed that this
function unnecessarily requests grace periods.

For example, consider the following sequence of events:
1. Callbacks are queued only on the NEXT segment of CPU A's callback list.
2. CPU A runs RCU_SOFTIRQ, accelerating these callbacks from NEXT to WAIT.
3. Thus rcu_segcblist_accelerate() returns true, requesting grace period N.
4. RCU's grace-period kthread wakes up on CPU B and starts grace period N.
4. CPU A notices the new grace period and invokes RCU_SOFTIRQ.
5. CPU A's RCU_SOFTIRQ again invokes rcu_segcblist_accelerate(), but
   there are no new callbacks.  However, rcu_segcblist_accelerate()
   nevertheless (uselessly) requests a new grace period N+1.

This extra grace period results in additional lock contention and also
additional wakeups, all for no good reason.

This commit therefore adds a check to rcu_segcblist_accelerate() that
prevents the return of true when there are no new callbacks.

This change reduces the number of grace periods (GPs) and wakeups in each
of eleven five-second rcutorture runs as follows:

+----+-------------------+-------------------+
| #  | Number of GPs     | Number of Wakeups |
+====+=========+=========+=========+=========+

| 11 |      52 |      82 |      83 |     117 |
+----+---------+---------+---------+---------+

The reduction in the number of wakeups ranges from 5% to 40%.

d685514260 rcutorture: Allow pointer leaks to test diagnostic code
This commit adds an rcutorture.leakpointer module parameter that
intentionally leaks an RCU-protected pointer out of the RCU read-side
critical section and checks to see if the corresponding grace period
has elapsed, emitting a WARN_ON_ONCE() if so.  This module parameter can
be used to test facilities like CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD that end
grace periods quickly.

While in the area, also document rcutorture.irqreader, which was
previously left out.

57f602022e rcutorture: Properly synchronize with OOM notifier
The current rcutorture forward-progress code assumes that it is the
only cause of out-of-memory (OOM) events.  For script-based rcutorture
testing, this assumption is in fact correct.  However, testing based
on modprobe/rmmod might well encounter external OOM events, which could
happen at any time.

This commit therefore properly synchronizes the interaction between
rcutorture's forward-progress testing and its OOM notifier by adding a

aa40c138cc rcu: Report QS for outermost PREEMPT=n rcu_read_unlock() for strict GPs
The CONFIG_PREEMPT=n instance of rcu_read_unlock is even more
aggressively than that of CONFIG_PREEMPT=y in deferring reporting
quiescent states to the RCU core.  This is just what is wanted in normal
use because it reduces overhead, but the resulting delay is not what
is wanted for kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y.
This commit therefore adds an rcu_read_unlock_strict() function that
checks for exceptional conditions, and reports the newly started
quiescent state if it is safe to do so, also doing a spin-delay if
requested via rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay.  This commit also adds a call
to rcu_read_unlock_strict() from the CONFIG_PREEMPT=n instance of
__rcu_read_unlock().

a657f26170 rcu: Execute RCU reader shortly after rcu_core for strict GPs
A kernel built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y needs a quiescent
state to appear very shortly after a CPU has noticed a new grace period.
Placing an RCU reader immediately after this point is ineffective because
this normally happens in softirq context, which acts as a big RCU reader.
This commit therefore introduces a new per-CPU work_struct, which is
used at the end of rcu_core() processing to schedule an RCU read-side
critical section from within a clean environment.

3d29aaf1ef rcu: Provide optional RCU-reader exit delay for strict GPs
The goal of this series is to increase the probability of tools like
KASAN detecting that an RCU-protected pointer was used outside of its
RCU read-side critical section.  Thus far, the approach has been to make
grace periods and callback processing happen faster.  Another approach
is to delay the pointer leaker.  This commit therefore allows a delay
to be applied to exit from RCU read-side critical sections.

This slowdown is specified by a new rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay kernel boot
parameter that specifies this delay in microseconds, defaulting to zero.

periods, given that it is things like kfree() within the RCU callbacks

1a2f5d57a3 rcu: Attempt QS when CPU discovers GP for strict GPs
A given CPU normally notes a new grace period during one RCU_SOFTIRQ,
but avoids reporting the corresponding quiescent state until some later
RCU_SOFTIRQ.  This leisurly approach improves efficiency by increasing
the number of update requests served by each grace period, but is not
what is needed for kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y.

This commit therefore adds a new rcu_strict_gp_check_qs() function
which, in CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y kernels, simply enters and
immediately exist an RCU read-side critical section.  If the CPU is
in a quiescent state, the rcu_read_unlock() will attempt to report an
immediate quiescent state.  This rcu_strict_gp_check_qs() function is
invoked from note_gp_changes(), so that a CPU just noticing a new grace
period might immediately report a quiescent state for that grace period.

44bad5b3cc rcu: Do full report for .need_qs for strict GPs
The rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore() function is invoked at
the end of an RCU read-side critical section (for example, directly
from rcu_read_unlock()) and, if .need_qs is set, invokes rcu_qs() to
report the new quiescent state.  This works, except that rcu_qs() only
updates per-CPU state, leaving reporting of the actual quiescent state
to a later call to rcu_report_qs_rdp(), for example from within a later
RCU_SOFTIRQ instance.  Although this approach is exactly what you want if
you are more concerned about efficiency than about short grace periods,
in CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y kernels, short grace periods are
the name of the game.

This commit therefore makes rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore() directly
invoke rcu_report_qs_rdp() in CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y, thus
shortening grace periods.

Historical note:  To the best of my knowledge, causing rcu_read_unlock()
to directly report a quiescent state first appeared in Jim Houston's
and Joe Korty's JRCU.  This is the second instance of a Linux-kernel RCU
feature being inspired by JRCU, the first being RCU callback offloading
(as in the RCU_NOCB_CPU Kconfig option).

f19920e412 rcu: Always set .need_qs from __rcu_read_lock() for strict GPs
The ->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs field in the task_struct
structure indicates that the RCU core needs a quiscent state from the
corresponding task.  The __rcu_read_unlock() function checks this (via
an eventual call to rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore()), and if set
reports a quiscent state immediately upon exit from the outermost RCU
read-side critical section.

Currently, this flag is only set when the scheduling-clock interrupt
decides that the current RCU grace period is too old, as in about
one full second too old.  But if the kernel has been built with
CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y, we clearly do not want to wait that
long.  This commit therefore sets the .need_qs field immediately at the
start of the RCU read-side critical section from within __rcu_read_lock()
in order to unconditionally enlist help from __rcu_read_unlock().

But note the additional check for rcu_state.gp_kthread, which prevents
attempts to awaken RCU's grace-period kthread during early boot before
there is a scheduler.  Leaving off this check results in early boot hangs.
So early that there is no console output.  Thus, this additional check
fails until such time as RCU's grace-period kthread has been created,
avoiding these empty-console hangs.

aecd34b976 rcu: Restrict default jiffies_till_first_fqs for strict RCU GPs
If there are idle CPUs, RCU's grace-period kthread will wait several
jiffies before even thinking about polling them.  This promotes
efficiency, which is normally a good thing, but when the kernel

about short grace periods.  This commit therefore restricts the
default jiffies_till_first_fqs value to zero in kernels built with

to poll for idle CPUs immediately after starting a grace period.

dc1269186b rcu: Reduce leaf fanout for strict RCU grace periods
Because strict RCU grace periods will complete more quickly, they will
experience greater lock contention on each leaf rcu_node structure's
->lock.  This commit therefore reduces the leaf fanout in order to reduce
this lock contention.

Note that this also has the effect of reducing the number of CPUs
supported to 16 in the case of CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF=2 or 81 in the
case of CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF=3.  However, greater numbers of CPUs are
probably a bad idea when using CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y.  Those
wishing to live dangerously are free to edit their kernel/rcu/Kconfig
files accordingly.

8cbd0e38a9 rcu: Add Kconfig option for strict RCU grace periods
People running automated tests have asked for a way to make RCU minimize
grace-period duration in order to increase the probability of KASAN
detecting a pointer being improperly leaked from an RCU read-side critical
section, for example, like this:

	rcu_read_lock();
	p = rcu_dereference(gp);
	do_something_with(p); // OK
	rcu_read_unlock();
	do_something_else_with(p); // BUG!!!

The rcupdate.rcu_expedited boot parameter is a start in this direction,
given that it makes calls to synchronize_rcu() instead invoke the faster
(and more wasteful) synchronize_rcu_expedited().  However, this does
nothing to shorten RCU grace periods that are instead initiated by
call_rcu(), and RCU pointer-leak bugs can involve call_rcu() just as
surely as they can synchronize_rcu().

This commit therefore adds a RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD Kconfig option
that will be used to shorten normal (non-expedited) RCU grace periods.
This commit also dumps out a message when this option is in effect.
Later commits will actually shorten grace periods.

666ca2907e rcu: Make FQS more aggressive in complaining about offline CPUs
The RCU grace-period kthread's force-quiescent state (FQS) loop should
never see an offline CPU that has not yet reported a quiescent state.
After all, the offline CPU should have reported a quiescent state
during the CPU-offline process, or, failing that, by rcu_gp_init()
if it ran concurrently with either the CPU going offline or the last
task on a leaf rcu_node structure exiting its RCU read-side critical
section while all CPUs corresponding to that structure are offline.
The FQS loop should therefore complain if it does see an offline CPU
that has not yet reported a quiescent state.

And it does, but only once the grace period has been in force for a
full second.  This commit therefore makes this warning more aggressive,
so that it will trigger as soon as the condition makes its appearance.

Light testing with TREE03 and hotplug shows no warnings.  This commit
also converts the warning to WARN_ON_ONCE() in order to stave off possible
log spam.

a2b354b995 rcu: Add READ_ONCE() to rcu_do_batch() access to rcu_resched_ns
Given that sysfs can change the value of rcu_resched_ns at any time,
this commit adds a READ_ONCE() to the sole access to that variable.
While in the area, this commit also adds bounds checking, clamping the
value to at least a millisecond, but no longer than a second.

2130c6b4f6 nocb: Remove show_rcu_nocb_state() false positive printout
The rcu_data structure's ->nocb_timer field is used to defer wakeups of
the corresponding no-CBs CPU's grace-period kthread ("rcuog*"), and that
structure's ->nocb_defer_wakeup field is used to track such deferral.
This means that the show_rcu_nocb_state() printing an error when those
fields are set for a CPU not corresponding to a no-CBs grace-period
kthread is erroneous.

This commit therefore switches the check from ->nocb_timer to
->nocb_bypass_timer and removes the check of ->nocb_defer_wakeup.

9b1ce0acb5 rcu/tree: Remove CONFIG_PREMPT_RCU check in force_qs_rnp()
Originally, the call to rcu_preempt_blocked_readers_cgp() from
force_qs_rnp() had to be conditioned on CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y, as in
commit a77da14ce9 ("rcu: Yet another fix for preemption and CPU
hotplug").  However, there is now a CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=n definition of
rcu_preempt_blocked_readers_cgp() that unconditionally returns zero, so
invoking it is now safe.  In addition, the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=n definition
of rcu_initiate_boost() simply releases the rcu_node structure's ->lock,
which is what happens when the "if" condition evaluates to false.

This commit therefore drops the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU) check,
so that rcu_initiate_boost() is called only in CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y
kernels when there are readers blocking the current grace period.
This does not change the behavior, but reduces code-reader confusion by
eliminating non-CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y calls to rcu_initiate_boost().

9c39245382 rcu/tree: Force quiescent state on callback overload
On callback overload, it is necessary to quickly detect idle CPUs,
and rcu_gp_fqs_check_wake() checks for this condition.  Unfortunately,
the code following the call to this function does not repeat this check,
which means that in reality no actual quiescent-state forcing, instead
only a couple of quick and pointless wakeups at the beginning of the
grace period.

This commit therefore adds a check for the RCU_GP_FLAG_OVLD flag in
the post-wakeup "if" statement in rcu_gp_fqs_loop().

a7886e899f rcu/trace: Use gp_seq_req in acceleration's rcu_grace_period tracepoint
During acceleration of CB, the rsp's gp_seq is rcu_seq_snap'd. This is
the value used for acceleration - it is the value of gp_seq at which it
is safe the execute all callbacks in the callback list.

The rdp's gp_seq is not very useful for this scenario. Make
rcu_grace_period report the gp_seq_req instead as it allows one to
reason about how the acceleration works.

26e760c9a7 rcu: kasan: record and print call_rcu() call stack
Patch series "kasan: memorize and print call_rcu stack", v8.

This patchset improves KASAN reports by making them to have call_rcu()
call stack information.  It is useful for programmers to solve
use-after-free or double-free memory issue.

The KASAN report was as follows(cleaned up slightly):

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in kasan_rcu_reclaim+0x58/0x60

Freed by task 0:
 kasan_save_stack+0x24/0x50
 kasan_set_track+0x24/0x38
 kasan_set_free_info+0x18/0x20
 __kasan_slab_free+0x10c/0x170
 kasan_slab_free+0x10/0x18
 kfree+0x98/0x270
 kasan_rcu_reclaim+0x1c/0x60

Last call_rcu():
 kasan_save_stack+0x24/0x50
 kasan_record_aux_stack+0xbc/0xd0
 call_rcu+0x8c/0x580
 kasan_rcu_uaf+0xf4/0xf8

Generic KASAN will record the last two call_rcu() call stacks and print up
to 2 call_rcu() call stacks in KASAN report.  it is only suitable for
generic KASAN.

This feature considers the size of struct kasan_alloc_meta and
kasan_free_meta, we try to optimize the structure layout and size, lets it
get better memory consumption.

This patch (of 4):

This feature will record the last two call_rcu() call stacks and prints up
to 2 call_rcu() call stacks in KASAN report.

When call_rcu() is called, we store the call_rcu() call stack into slub
alloc meta-data, so that the KASAN report can print rcu stack.

6d2b84a4e5 This tree adds the sched_set_fifo*() encapsulation APIs to remove
static priority level knowledge from non-scheduler code.
 
 The three APIs for non-scheduler code to set SCHED_FIFO are:
 
  - sched_set_fifo()
  - sched_set_fifo_low()
  - sched_set_normal()
 
 These are two FIFO priority levels: default (high), and a 'low' priority level,
 plus sched_set_normal() to set the policy back to non-SCHED_FIFO.
 
 Since the changes affect a lot of non-scheduler code, we kept this in a separate
 tree.
 
 When merging to the latest upstream tree there's a conflict in drivers/spi/spi.c,
 which can be resolved via:
 
 	sched_set_fifo(ctlr->kworker_task);
