19a5ecde08 rcu: Suppress lockdep false positive for rcp->exp_funnel_mutex
In kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, synchronize_rcu_expedited()
invokes synchronize_sched_expedited() while holding RCU-preempt's
root rcu_node structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex, which is acquired after
the rcu_data structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex.  The first thing that
synchronize_sched_expedited() will do is acquire RCU-sched's rcu_data
structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex.   There is no danger of an actual deadlock
because the locking order is always from RCU-preempt's expedited mutexes
to those of RCU-sched.  Unfortunately, lockdep considers both rcu_data
structures' ->exp_funnel_mutex to be in the same lock class and therefore
reports a deadlock cycle.

This commit silences this false positive by placing RCU-sched's rcu_data
structures' ->exp_funnel_mutex locks into their own lock class.

12d560f4ea rcu,locking: Privatize smp_mb__after_unlock_lock()
RCU is the only thing that uses smp_mb__after_unlock_lock(), and is
likely the only thing that ever will use it, so this commit makes this

af859beaab rcu: Silence lockdep false positive for expedited grace periods
In a CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernel, synchronize_rcu_expedited()
acquires the ->exp_funnel_mutex in rcu_preempt_state, then invokes
synchronize_sched_expedited, which acquires the ->exp_funnel_mutex in
rcu_sched_state.  There can be no deadlock because rcu_preempt_state
->exp_funnel_mutex acquisition always precedes that of rcu_sched_state.
But lockdep does not know that, so it gives false-positive splats.

This commit therefore associates a separate lock_class_key structure
with the rcu_sched_state structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex, allowing
lockdep to see the lock ordering, avoiding the false positives.

9a54f98e34 rcu: Don't disable CPU hotplug during OOM notifiers
RCU's rcu_oom_notify() disables CPU hotplug in order to stabilize the
list of online CPUs, which it traverses.  However, this is completely
pointless because smp_call_function_single() will quietly fail if invoked
on an offline CPU.  Because the count of requests is incremented in the
rcu_oom_notify_cpu() function that is remotely invoked, everything works
nicely even in the face of concurrent CPU-hotplug operations.

Furthermore, in recent kernels, invoking get_online_cpus() from an OOM
notifier can result in deadlock.  This commit therefore removes the
call to get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus() from rcu_oom_notify().

ec90a194ae rcu: Create a synchronize_rcu_mult()
There have been several requests for a primitive that waits for
grace periods for several RCU flavors concurrently, so this
commit creates it.  This is a variadic macro, and you pass in
the call_rcu() functions of the flavors of RCU that you wish to
wait for.

Note that you cannot pass in call_srcu() for two reasons: (1) This
would result in a type mismatch and (2) You need to specify which
srcu_struct you want to use.  Handle this by creating a wrapper
function for your SRCU domain, for example:

	void call_srcu_mine(struct rcu_head *head, rcu_callback_t func)
	{
		call_srcu(&ss_mine, head, func);
	}

You can then do something like this:

	synchronize_rcu_mult(call_srcu_mine, call_rcu, call_rcu_sched);

704dd435ac rcu: Consolidate last open-coded expedited memory barrier
One of the requirements on RCU grace periods is that if there is a
causal chain of operations that starts after one grace period and
ends before another grace period, then the two grace periods must
be serialized.  There has been (and might still be) code that relies
on this, for example, certain types of reference-counting code that
does a call_rcu() within an RCU callback function.

This requirement is why there is an smp_mb() at the end of both
synchronize_sched_expedited() and synchronize_rcu_expedited().
However, this is the only smp_mb() in these functions, so it would
be nicer to consolidate it into rcu_exp_gp_seq_end().  This commit
does just that.

543c6158f6 rcu: Make synchronize_rcu_expedited() use sequence-counter scheme

28f00767e3 rcu: Abstract sequence counting from synchronize_sched_expedited()
This commit creates rcu_exp_gp_seq_start() and rcu_exp_gp_seq_end() to
bracket an expedited grace period, rcu_exp_gp_seq_snap() to snapshot the
sequence counter, and rcu_exp_gp_seq_done() to check to see if a full
expedited grace period has elapsed since the snapshot.  These will be
applied to synchronize_rcu_expedited().  These are defined in terms of
underlying rcu_seq_start(), rcu_seq_end(), rcu_seq_snap(), rcu_seq_done(),
which will be applied to _rcu_barrier().

One reason that this commit doesn't use the seqcount primitives themselves
is that the smp_wmb() in those primitive is insufficient due to the fact
that expedited grace periods do reads as well as writes.  In addition,
the read-side seqcount primitives detect a potentially partial change,
where the expedited primitives instead need a guaranteed full change.

3a6d7c64d7 rcu: Make expedited GP CPU stoppage asynchronous
Sequentially stopping the CPUs slows down expedited grace periods by
at least a factor of two, based on rcutorture's grace-period-per-second
rate.  This is a conservative measure because rcutorture uses unusually
long RCU read-side critical sections and because rcutorture periodically
quiesces the system in order to test RCU's ability to ramp down to and
up from the idle state.  This commit therefore replaces the stop_one_cpu()
with stop_one_cpu_nowait(), using an atomic-counter scheme to determine
when all CPUs have passed through the stopped state.

d6ada2cf2f rcu: Rework synchronize_sched_expedited() counter handling
Now that synchronize_sched_expedited() have a mutex, it can use simpler
work-already-done detection scheme.  This commit simplifies this scheme
by using something similar to the sequence-locking counter scheme.
A counter is incremented before and after each grace period, so that
the counter is odd in the midst of the grace period and even otherwise.
So if the counter has advanced to the second even number that is
greater than or equal to the snapshot, the required grace period has
already happened.

c190c3b16c rcu: Switch synchronize_sched_expedited() to stop_one_cpu()
The synchronize_sched_expedited() currently invokes try_stop_cpus(),
which schedules the stopper kthreads on each online non-idle CPU,
and waits until all those kthreads are running before letting any
of them stop.  This is disastrous for real-time workloads, which
get hit with a preemption that is as long as the longest scheduling
latency on any CPU, including any non-realtime housekeeping CPUs.
This commit therefore switches to using stop_one_cpu() on each CPU
in turn.  This avoids inflicting the worst-case scheduling latency
on the worst-case CPU onto all other CPUs, and also simplifies the
code a little bit.

Follow-up commits will simplify the counter-snapshotting algorithm
and convert a number of the counters that are now protected by the
new ->expedited_mutex to non-atomic.

05b84aec46 rcu: Limit rcu_capacity[] size to RCU_NUM_LVLS items
Number of items in rcu_capacity[] array is defined by macro
MAX_RCU_LVLS. However, that array is never accessed beyond
RCU_NUM_LVLS index. Therefore, we can limit the array to
RCU_NUM_LVLS items and eliminate MAX_RCU_LVLS. As result,
in most cases the memory is conserved.

a6d77081e2 rcu: Limit rcu_state::levelcnt[] to RCU_NUM_LVLS items
Variable rcu_num_lvls is limited by RCU_NUM_LVLS macro.
In turn, rcu_state::levelcnt[] array is never accessed
beyond rcu_num_lvls. Thus, rcu_state::levelcnt[] is safe
to limit to RCU_NUM_LVLS items.

Since rcu_num_lvls could be changed during boot (as result
of rcutree.rcu_fanout_leaf kernel parameter update) one might
assume a new value could overflow the value of RCU_NUM_LVLS.
However, that is not the case, since leaf-level fanout is only
permitted to increase, resulting in rcu_num_lvls possibly to
decrease.

9618138b09 rcu: Simplify rcu_init_geometry() capacity arithmetics
Current code suggests that introducing the extra level to
rcu_capacity[] array makes some of the arithmetic easier.
Well, in fact it appears rather confusing and unnecessary.

679f9858b1 rcu: Cleanup rcu_init_geometry() code and arithmetics
This update simplifies rcu_init_geometry() code flow
and makes calculation of the total number of rcu_node
structures more easy to read.

The update relies on the fact num_rcu_lvl[] is never
accessed beyond rcu_num_lvls index by the rest of the
code. Therefore, there is no need initialize the whole
num_rcu_lvl[].

75cf15a4c0 rcu: Panic if RCU tree can not accommodate all CPUs
Currently a condition when RCU tree is unable to accommodate
the configured number of CPUs is not permitted and causes
a fall back to compile-time values. However, the code has no
means to exceed the RCU tree capacity neither at compile-time
nor in run-time. Therefore, if the condition is met in run-
time then it indicates a serios problem elsewhere and should
be handled with a panic.

f765d11307 rcu: Change return type to bool
Type-checking coccinelle spatches are being used to locate type mismatches
between function signatures and return values in this case this produced:
./kernel/rcu/srcu.c:271 WARNING: return of wrong type
        int != unsigned long,

srcu_readers_active() returns an int that is the sum of per_cpu unsigned
long but the only user is cleanup_srcu_struct() which is using it as a
boolean (condition) to see if there is any readers rather than actually
using the approximate number of readers. The theoretically possible
unsigned long overflow case does not need to be handled explicitly - if
we had 4G++ readers then something else went wrong a long time ago.

proposal: change the return type to boolean. The function name is left
          unchanged as it fits the naming expectation for a boolean.

patch was compile tested for x86_64_defconfig (implies CONFIG_SRCU=y)

patch is against 4.1-rc5 (localversion-next is -next-20150525)

d5671f6bf2 rcu: Deinline rcu_read_lock_sched_held() if DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y is not a production setting, but it is
not very unusual either. Many developers routinely
use kernels built with it enabled.

Apart from being selected by hand, it is also auto-selected by
PROVE_LOCKING "Lock debugging: prove locking correctness" and
LOCK_STAT "Lock usage statistics" config options.
LOCK STAT is necessary for "perf lock" to work.

I wouldn't spend too much time optimizing it, but this particular
function has a very large cost in code size: when it is deinlined,
code size decreases by 830,000 bytes:

    text     data      bss       dec     hex filename
85674192 22294776 20627456 128596424 7aa39c8 vmlinux.before
84837612 22294424 20627456 127759492 79d7484 vmlinux

d1ec4c34c7 rcu: Drop RCU_USER_QS in favor of NO_HZ_FULL
The RCU_USER_QS Kconfig parameter is now just a synonym for NO_HZ_FULL,
so this commit eliminates RCU_USER_QS, replacing all uses with NO_HZ_FULL.
