Reference-count underflow for percpu_ref is detected in the RCU callback
percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu(), and the resulting warning does not
print anything allowing easy identification of which percpu_ref use
case is underflowing. This is of course not normally a problem when
developing a new percpu_ref use case because it is most likely that
the problem resides in this new use case. However, when deploying a
new kernel to a large set of servers, the underflow might well be a new
corner case in any of the old percpu_ref use cases.
This commit therefore calls mem_dump_obj() to dump out any additional
available information on the underflowing percpu_ref instance.

The debug-object double-free checks in __call_rcu() print out the
RCU callback function, which is usually sufficient to track down the
double free. However, all uses of things like queue_rcu_work() will
have the same RCU callback function (rcu_work_rcufn() in this case),
so a diagnostic message for a double queue_rcu_work() needs more than
just the callback function.
This commit therefore calls mem_dump_obj() to dump out any additional
available information on the double-freed callback.

This commit adds vmalloc() support to mem_dump_obj(). Note that the
vmalloc_dump_obj() function combines the checking and dumping, in
contrast with the split between kmem_valid_obj() and kmem_dump_obj().
The reason for the difference is that the checking in the vmalloc()
case involves acquiring a global lock, and redundant acquisitions of
global locks should be avoided, even on not-so-fast paths.
Note that this change causes on-stack variables to be reported as
vmalloc() storage from kernel_clone() or similar, depending on the degree
of inlining that your compiler does. This is likely more helpful than
the earlier "non-paged (local) memory".

There are kernel facilities such as per-CPU reference counts that give
error messages in generic handlers or callbacks, whose messages are
unenlightening. In the case of per-CPU reference-count underflow, this
is not a problem when creating a new use of this facility because in that
case the bug is almost certainly in the code implementing that new use.
However, trouble arises when deploying across many systems, which might
exercise corner cases that were not seen during development and testing.
Here, it would be really nice to get some kind of hint as to which of
several uses the underflow was caused by.
This commit therefore exposes a mem_dump_obj() function that takes
a pointer to memory (which must still be allocated if it has been
dynamically allocated) and prints available information on where that
memory came from. This pointer can reference the middle of the block as
well as the beginning of the block, as needed by things like RCU callback
functions and timer handlers that might not know where the beginning of
the memory block is. These functions and handlers can use mem_dump_obj()
to print out better hints as to where the problem might lie.
The information printed can depend on kernel configuration. For example,
the allocation return address can be printed only for slab and slub,
and even then only when the necessary debug has been enabled. For slab,
build with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y, and either use sizes with ample space
to the next power of two or use the SLAB_STORE_USER when creating the
kmem_cache structure. For slub, build with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y and
boot with slub_debug=U, or pass SLAB_STORE_USER to kmem_cache_create()
if more focused use is desired. Also for slub, use CONFIG_STACKTRACE
to enable printing of the allocation-time stack trace.

RCU's rcutree.use_softirq=0 kernel boot parameter substitutes the per-CPU
rcuc kthreads for softirq, which is used in real-time installations.
However, none of the rcutorture scenarios test this parameter.
This commit therefore adds rcutree.use_softirq=0 to the RUDE01 and
TASKS01 rcutorture scenarios, both of which indirectly exercise RCU.

The TREE01 rcutorture scenario intentionally creates confusion as to the
number of available CPUs by specifying the "maxcpus=8 nr_cpus=43" kernel
boot parameters. This can disable rcutorture's load shedding, which
currently uses num_online_cpus(), which would count the extra 35 CPUs.
However, the rcutorture guest OS will be provisioned with only 8 CPUs,
which means that rcutorture will present full load even when all but one
of the original 8 CPUs are offline. This can result in spurious errors
due to extreme overloading of that single remaining CPU.
This commit therefore keeps a separate set of books on the number of
usable online CPUs, so that torture_num_online_cpus() is used for load
shedding instead of num_online_cpus(). Note that initial sizing must
use num_online_cpus() because torture_num_online_cpus() will return
NR_CPUS until shortly after torture_onoff_init() is invoked.

Because rcu_torture_writer() and rcu_torture_fakewriter() predate
hrtimers, they do timer-wheel-decoupled timed waits by using the

Full testing of the new SRCU polling API requires that the fake writers
also use it in order to test concurrent calls to all of the API members,
especially start_poll_synchronize_srcu(). This commit prepares the ground
for this by making the synctype[] and nsynctype variables be static
globals so that the rcu_torture_fakewriter() function can access them.
Initialization of these variables is moved from rcu_torture_writer()
to a new rcu_torture_write_types() function that is invoked from
rcu_torture_init() just before the first writer kthread is spawned.

Currently, the rcu_torture_writer() function checks that all required
grace periods elapse during a stutter interval, which is a multi-second
time period during which the test load is removed. However, this check
is suppressed during early boot (that is, before init is spawned) in
order to avoid false positives that otherwise occur due to heavy load
on the single boot CPU.
Unfortunately, this approach is insufficient. It is possible that the
stutter interval might end just as init is spawned, so that early boot
conditions prevailed during almost the entire stutter interval.
This commit therefore takes a snapshot of boot-complete state just
before the stutter interval, thus suppressing the check for failure to
complete grace periods unless the entire stutter interval took place
after early boot.

The sizes of vmlinux files built with KASAN enabled can approach a full
gigabyte, which can result in disk overflow sooner rather than later.
Fortunately, the xz command compresses them by almost an order of
magnitude. This commit therefore uses xz to compress vmlinux file built
by torture.sh with KASAN enabled.
However, xz is not the fastest thing in the world. In fact, it is way
slower than rotating-rust mass storage. This commit therefore also adds a
--compress-kasan-vmlinux argument to specify the degree of xz concurrency,
which defaults to using all available CPUs if there are that many files in
need of compression.

For a new grace period request, the RCU GP kthread transitions through
following states:
a. [RCU_GP_WAIT_GPS] -> [RCU_GP_DONE_GPS]
The RCU_GP_WAIT_GPS state is where the GP kthread waits for a request
for a new GP. Once it receives a request (for example, when a new RCU
callback is queued), the GP kthread transitions to RCU_GP_DONE_GPS.
b. [RCU_GP_DONE_GPS] -> [RCU_GP_ONOFF]
Grace period initialization starts in rcu_gp_init(), which records the
start of new GP in rcu_state.gp_seq and transitions to RCU_GP_ONOFF.
c. [RCU_GP_ONOFF] -> [RCU_GP_INIT]
The purpose of the RCU_GP_ONOFF state is to apply the online/offline
information that was buffered for any CPUs that recently came online or
went offline. This state is maintained in per-leaf rcu_node bitmasks,
with the buffered state in ->qsmaskinitnext and the state for the upcoming
GP in ->qsmaskinit. At the end of this RCU_GP_ONOFF state, each bit in
->qsmaskinit will correspond to a CPU that must pass through a quiescent
state before the upcoming grace period is allowed to complete.
However, a leaf rcu_node structure with an all-zeroes ->qsmaskinit
cannot necessarily be ignored. In preemptible RCU, there might well be
tasks still in RCU read-side critical sections that were first preempted
while running on one of the CPUs managed by this structure. Such tasks
will be queued on this structure's ->blkd_tasks list. Only after this
list fully drains can this leaf rcu_node structure be ignored, and even
then only if none of its CPUs have come back online in the meantime.
Once that happens, the ->qsmaskinit masks further up the tree will be
updated to exclude this leaf rcu_node structure.
Once the ->qsmaskinitnext and ->qsmaskinit fields have been updated
as needed, the GP kthread transitions to RCU_GP_INIT.
d. [RCU_GP_INIT] -> [RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS]
The purpose of the RCU_GP_INIT state is to copy each ->qsmaskinit to
the ->qsmask field within each rcu_node structure. This copying is done
breadth-first from the root to the leaves. Why not just copy directly
from ->qsmaskinitnext to ->qsmask? Because the ->qsmaskinitnext masks
can change in the meantime as additional CPUs come online or go offline.
Such changes would result in inconsistencies in the ->qsmask fields up and
down the tree, which could in turn result in too-short grace periods or
grace-period hangs. These issues are avoided by snapshotting the leaf
rcu_node structures' ->qsmaskinitnext fields into their ->qsmaskinit
counterparts, generating a consistent set of ->qsmaskinit fields
throughout the tree, and only then copying these consistent ->qsmaskinit
fields to their ->qsmask counterparts.
Once this initialization step is complete, the GP kthread transitions
to RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS, where it waits to do a force-quiescent-state scan
on the one hand or for the end of the grace period on the other.
e. [RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS] -> [RCU_GP_DOING_FQS]
The RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS state waits for one of three things: (1) An
explicit request to do a force-quiescent-state scan, (2) The end of
the grace period, or (3) A short interval of time, after which it
will do a force-quiescent-state (FQS) scan. The explicit request can
come from rcutorture or from any CPU that has too many RCU callbacks
queued (see the qhimark kernel parameter and the RCU_GP_FLAG_OVLD
flag). The aforementioned "short period of time" is specified by the
jiffies_till_first_fqs boot parameter for a given grace period's first
FQS scan and by the jiffies_till_next_fqs for later FQS scans.
Either way, once the wait is over, the GP kthread transitions to
RCU_GP_DOING_FQS.
f. [RCU_GP_DOING_FQS] -> [RCU_GP_CLEANUP]
The RCU_GP_DOING_FQS state performs an FQS scan. Each such scan carries
out two functions for any CPU whose bit is still set in its leaf rcu_node
structure's ->qsmask field, that is, for any CPU that has not yet reported
a quiescent state for the current grace period:
i. Report quiescent states on behalf of CPUs that have been observed
to be idle (from an RCU perspective) since the beginning of the
grace period.
ii. If the current grace period is too old, take various actions to
encourage holdout CPUs to pass through quiescent states, including
enlisting the aid of any calls to cond_resched() and might_sleep(),
and even including IPIing the holdout CPUs.
These checks are skipped for any leaf rcu_node structure with a all-zero
->qsmask field, however such structures are subject to RCU priority
boosting if there are tasks on a given structure blocking the current
grace period. The end of the grace period is detected when the root
rcu_node structure's ->qsmask is zero and when there are no longer any
preempted tasks blocking the current grace period. (No, this last check
is not redundant. To see this, consider an rcu_node tree having exactly
one structure that serves as both root and leaf.)
Once the end of the grace period is detected, the GP kthread transitions
to RCU_GP_CLEANUP.
g. [RCU_GP_CLEANUP] -> [RCU_GP_CLEANED]
The RCU_GP_CLEANUP state marks the end of grace period by updating the
rcu_state structure's ->gp_seq field and also all rcu_node structures'
->gp_seq field. As before, the rcu_node tree is traversed in breadth
first order. Once this update is complete, the GP kthread transitions
to the RCU_GP_CLEANED state.
i. [RCU_GP_CLEANED] -> [RCU_GP_INIT]
Once in the RCU_GP_CLEANED state, the GP kthread immediately transitions
into the RCU_GP_INIT state.
j. The role of timers.
If there is at least one idle CPU, and if timers are not firing, the
transition from RCU_GP_DOING_FQS to RCU_GP_CLEANUP will never happen.
Timers can fail to fire for a number of reasons, including issues in
timer configuration, issues in the timer framework, and failure to handle
softirqs (for example, when there is a storm of interrupts). Whatever the
reason, if the timers fail to fire, the GP kthread will never be awakened,
resulting in RCU CPU stall warnings and eventually in OOM.
However, an RCU CPU stall warning has a large number of potential causes,
as documented in Documentation/RCU/stallwarn.rst. This commit therefore
adds analysis to the RCU CPU stall-warning code to emit an additional
message if the cause of the stall is likely to be timer failure.

Because the need to wake a nocb GP kthread ("rcuog") is sometimes
detected when wakeups cannot be done, these wakeups can be deferred.
The wakeups are then carried out by calls to do_nocb_deferred_wakeup()
at various safe points in the code, including RCU's idle hooks. However,
when a CPU goes offline, it invokes arch_cpu_idle_dead() without invoking
any of RCU's idle hooks.
This commit therefore adds a call to do_nocb_deferred_wakeup() in
rcu_report_dead() in order to handle any deferred wakeups that have been
requested by the outgoing CPU.

This commit adds a lockdep_is_cpus_held() function to verify that the
proper locks are held and that various operations are running in the
correct context.

The local callbacks processing checks if any callbacks need acceleration.
This commit carries out this checking under nocb lock protection in
the middle of toggle operations, during which time rcu_core() executes
concurrently with GP/CB kthreads.

This commit makes sure to process the callbacks locally (via either
RCU_SOFTIRQ or the rcuc kthread) whenever the segcblist isn't entirely
offloaded. This ensures that callbacks are invoked one way or another
while a CPU is in the middle of a toggle operation.

During a toggle operations, rcu_do_batch() may be invoked concurrently
by softirqs and offloaded processing for a given CPU's callbacks.
This commit therefore makes sure cond_resched() is invoked only from
the offloaded context.
