Allow to modify the low-level unbound workqueues cpumask through
sysfs. This is performed by traversing the entire workqueue list
and calling apply_wqattrs_prepare() on the unbound workqueues
with the new low level mask. Only after all the preparation are done,
we commit them all together.
Ordered workqueues are ignored from the low level unbound workqueue
cpumask, it will be handled in near future.
All the (default & per-node) pwqs are mandatorily controlled by
the low level cpumask. If the user configured cpumask doesn't overlap
with the low level cpumask, the low level cpumask will be used for the
wq instead.
The comment of wq_calc_node_cpumask() is updated and explicitly
requires that its first argument should be the attrs of the default
pwq.
The default wq_unbound_cpumask is cpu_possible_mask. The workqueue
subsystem doesn't know its best default value, let the system manager
or the other subsystem set it when needed.
Changed from V8:
merge the calculating code for the attrs of the default pwq together.
minor change the code&comments for saving the user configured attrs.
remove unnecessary list_del().
minor update the comment of wq_calc_node_cpumask().
update the comment of workqueue_set_unbound_cpumask();

We give up old_addr hint from the coming patch module in cases when kernel load
base has been randomized (as in such case, the coming module has no idea about
the exact randomization offset).
We are currently too pessimistic, and give up immediately as soon as
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is set; this doesn't however directly imply that the
load base has actually been randomized. There are config options that
disable kASLR (such as hibernation), user could have disabled kaslr on
kernel command-line, etc.
The loader propagates the information whether kernel has been randomized
through bootparams. This allows us to have the condition more accurate.
On top of that, it seems unnecessary to give up old_addr hints even if
randomization is active. The relocation offset can be computed using
kaslr_ofsset(), and therefore old_addr can be adjusted accordingly.

Commit 335f49196f (sched/idle: Use explicit broadcast oneshot
control function) replaced clockevents_notify() invocations in
cpuidle_idle_call() with direct calls to tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit(), but it overlooked the fact that
interrupts were already enabled before calling the latter which
led to functional breakage on systems using idle states with the
CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag set.
Fix that by moving the invocations of tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit() down into cpuidle_enter_state() where
interrupts are still disabled when tick_broadcast_exit() is
called. Also ensure that interrupts will be disabled before
running tick_broadcast_exit() even if they have been enabled by
the idle state's ->enter callback. Trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in
that case, as we generally don't want that to happen for states
with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set.

Create a cpumask that limits the affinity of all unbound workqueues.
This cpumask is controlled through a file at the root of the workqueue
sysfs directory.
It works on a lower-level than the per WQ_SYSFS workqueues cpumask files
such that the effective cpumask applied for a given unbound workqueue is
the intersection of /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/$WORKQUEUE/cpumask and
the new /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/cpumask file.
This patch implements the basic infrastructure and the read interface.
wq_unbound_cpumask is initially set to cpu_possible_mask.

Current apply_workqueue_attrs() includes pwqs-allocation and pwqs-installation,
so when we batch multiple apply_workqueue_attrs()s as a transaction, we can't
ensure the transaction must succeed or fail as a complete unit.
To solve this, we split apply_workqueue_attrs() into three stages.
The first stage does the preparation: allocation memory, pwqs.
The second stage does the attrs-installaion and pwqs-installation.
The third stage frees the allocated memory and (old or unused) pwqs.
As the result, batching multiple apply_workqueue_attrs()s can
succeed or fail as a complete unit:
1) batch do all the first stage for all the workqueues
2) only commit all when all the above succeed.
This patch is a preparation for the next patch ("Allow modifying low level
unbound workqueue cpumask") which will do a multiple apply_workqueue_attrs().
The patch doesn't have functionality changed except two minor adjustment:
1) free_unbound_pwq() for the error path is removed, we use the
heavier version put_pwq_unlocked() instead since the error path
is rare. this adjustment simplifies the code.
2) the memory-allocation is also moved into wq_pool_mutex.
this is needed to avoid to do the further splitting.
tj: minor updates to comments.

This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca
and 80f7fdb1c7.
The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support
the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it
with synchronized TSC. Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed
due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare
that it's mostly theoretical.
As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the
additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task
migration notifier.
Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at
all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

A clockevent device is marked DETACHED when it is replaced by another

The device is shutdown properly for drivers that implement legacy
->set_mode() callback, as we call ->set_mode() for CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED
as well.
But for the new per-state callback interface, we skip shutting down the
device, as we thought its an internal state change. That wasn't correct.
The effect is that the device is left programmed in oneshot or periodic
mode.

You cannot just change the expiry time of an active timer, it will
destroy the red-black tree order and cause havoc.
Change it to (re)start the timer instead, (re)starting a timer will
dequeue and enqueue a timer and therefore preserve rb-tree order.
Since we cannot enqueue remotely, wrap the thing in
cpu_function_call(), this however mandates that we restrict ourselves
to online cpus. Also serialize the entire setting so we don't get
multiple concurrent threads trying to update to different values.
Also fix a problem in perf_mux_hrtimer_restart(), checking against
hrtimer_active() can actually loose us the timer when timer->state ==
HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK and the callback has already decided NORESTART.
Furthermore it doesn't make any sense to test
hrtimer_callback_running() when we already tested hrtimer_active(),
but with the above change, we explicitly must call it when
callback_running.
Lastly, rename a few functions:
s/perf_cpu_hrtimer_/perf_mux_hrtimer_/ -- because I could not find
the mux timer function
s/\<hr\>/timer/ -- because that's the normal way of calling things.

Roman reported a 3 cpu lockup scenario involving __start_cfs_bandwidth().
The more I look at that code the more I'm convinced its crack, that
entire __start_cfs_bandwidth() thing is brain melting, we don't need to
cancel a timer before starting it, *hrtimer_start*() will happily remove
the timer for you if its still enqueued.
Removing that, removes a big part of the problem, no more ugly cancel
loop to get stuck in.
So now, if I understand things right, the entire reason you have this
cfs_b->lock guarded ->timer_active nonsense is to make sure we don't
accidentally lose the timer.
It appears to me that it should be possible to guarantee that same by
unconditionally (re)starting the timer when !queued. Because regardless
what hrtimer::function will return, if we beat it to (re)enqueue the
timer, it doesn't matter.
Now, because hrtimers don't come with any serialization guarantees we
must ensure both handler and (re)start loop serialize their access to
the hrtimer to avoid both trying to forward the timer at the same
time.
Update the rt bandwidth timer to match.
This effectively reverts: 09dc4ab039 ("sched/fair: Fix
tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() deadlock on rq->lock").

Because we drop cpu_base->lock around calling hrtimer::function, it is
possible for hrtimer_start() to come in between and enqueue the timer.
If hrtimer::function then returns HRTIMER_RESTART we'll hit the BUG_ON
because HRTIMER_STATE_ENQUEUED will be set.
Since the above is a perfectly valid scenario, remove the BUG_ON and
make the enqueue_hrtimer() call conditional on the timer not being
enqueued already.
NOTE: in that concurrent scenario its entirely common for both sites
to want to modify the hrtimer, since hrtimers don't provide
serialization themselves be sure to provide some such that the
hrtimer::function and the hrtimer_start() caller don't both try and
fudge the expiration state at the same time.
To that effect, add a WARN when someone tries to forward an already
enqueued timer, the most common way to change the expiry of self
restarting timers. Ideally we'd put the WARN in everything modifying
the expiry but most of that is inlines and we don't need the bloat.

We can do a lockless check for hrtimer_active before actually taking
the lock in hrtimer[_try_to]_cancel. This is useful for hotpath users
like nanosleep as they avoid the lock dance when the timer has
expired.
This is safe because active is true when the timer is enqueued or the
callback is running. Taking the hrtimer base lock does not protect
against concurrent hrtimer_start calls, the callsite has to do the
proper serialization itself.

The evaluation of the next timer in the nohz code is based on jiffies
while all the tick internals are nano seconds based. We have also to
convert hrtimer nanoseconds to jiffies in the !highres case. That's
just wrong and introduces interesting corner cases.
Turn it around and convert the next timer wheel timer expiry and the
rcu event to clock monotonic and base all calculations on
nanoseconds. That identifies the case where no timer is pending
clearly with an absolute expiry value of KTIME_MAX.
Makes the code more readable and gets rid of the jiffies magic in the

hrtimer softirq is a leftover from the initial implementation and
serves only the purpose to handle the enqueueing of already expired
timers in the high resolution timer mode. We discussed whether we
change the return value and force all start sites to handle that the
timer is already expired, but that would be a Herculean task and I'm
not sure whether its a good idea to enforce that handling on
everyone.
A simpler solution is to enforce a timer interrupt instead of raising
and scheduling a softirq. Just use the existing infrastructure to do
so and remove all the softirq leftovers.
The HRTIMER softirq enum is now unused, but kept around because trace
parsers rely on the existing numbering.

Add a sequence counter to the time keeping code which keeps track of
the offset updates (clock_was_set()). Have a sequence cache in the
hrtimer cpu bases to evaluate whether the offsets must be updated or
not. This allows us later to avoid pointless cacheline pollution.

The softirq time field in the clock bases is an optimization from the
early days of hrtimers. It provides a coarse "jiffies" like time
mostly for self rearming timers.
But that comes with a price:
- Larger code size
- Extra storage space
- Duplicated functions with really small differences
The benefit of this is optimization is marginal for contemporary
systems.
Consolidate everything on the high resolution timer
implementation. This makes further optimizations possible.
