Install the callbacks via the state machine and let the core invoke
the callbacks on the already online CPUs. A lot of code is removed because
the for-loop is used and create_hash_tables() is removed since its purpose
is covered by the startup / teardown hooks.

A couple of functions and variables in the profile implementation are
used only on SMP systems by the procfs code, but are unused if either
procfs is disabled or in uniprocessor kernels. gcc prints a harmless
warning about the unused symbols:

static void profile_flip_buffers(void)

This adds further #ifdef to the file, to annotate exactly in which cases
they are used. I have done several thousand ARM randconfig kernels with
this patch applied and no longer get any warnings in this file.

schedstats is very useful during debugging and performance tuning but it
incurs overhead to calculate the stats. As such, even though it can be
disabled at build time, it is often enabled as the information is useful.
This patch adds a kernel command-line and sysctl tunable to enable or
disable schedstats on demand (when it's built in). It is disabled
by default as someone who knows they need it can also learn to enable
it when necessary.
The benefits are dependent on how scheduler-intensive the workload is.
If it is then the patch reduces the number of cycles spent calculating
the stats with a small benefit from reducing the cache footprint of the
scheduler.
These measurements were taken from a 48-core 2-socket
machine with Xeon(R) E5-2670 v3 cpus although they were also tested on a
single socket machine 8-core machine with Intel i7-3770 processors.

Small improvement and similar gains were seen on the UMA machine.
The gain is small but it stands to reason that doing less work in the
scheduler is a good thing. The downside is that the lack of schedstats and
tracepoints may be surprising to experts doing performance analysis until
they find the existence of the schedstats= parameter or schedstats sysctl.
It will be automatically activated for latencytop and sleep profiling to
alleviate the problem. For tracepoints, there is a simple warning as it's
not safe to activate schedstats in the context when it's known the tracepoint
may be wanted but is unavailable.

alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.
The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").
Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.
To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage. Both functions get described in comments.
It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small
anyway.
Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.
Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.
To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

(with a small piece from Gautham R Shenoy) touching multiple
subsystems that use CPU hotplug notifiers is to provide a way to
register them that will not lead to deadlocks with CPU online/offline
operations as described in the changelog of commit 93ae4f978ca7f ("CPU

The first three commits in the series introduce the API and document
it and the rest simply goes through the users of CPU hotplug notifiers

Code that is obj-y (always built-in) or dependent on a bool Kconfig
(built-in or absent) can never be modular. So using module_init as an
alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading.
Fix these up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into
module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h
to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing.
The audit targets the following module_init users for change:
kernel/user.c obj-y
kernel/kexec.c bool KEXEC (one instance per arch)
kernel/profile.c bool PROFILING
kernel/hung_task.c bool DETECT_HUNG_TASK
kernel/sched/stats.c bool SCHEDSTATS
kernel/user_namespace.c bool USER_NS
Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the
priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these
files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level
4-subsys (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that
difference has been observed during testing.
Also, two instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed in kexec.

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:
cpu_notifier_register_begin();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
cpu_notifier_register_done();
Fix the profile code by using this latter form of callback registration.

GFP_THISNODE is for callers that implement their own clever fallback to
remote nodes. It restricts the allocation to the specified node and
does not invoke reclaim, assuming that the caller will take care of it
when the fallback fails, e.g. through a subsequent allocation request
without GFP_THISNODE set.
However, many current GFP_THISNODE users only want the node exclusive
aspect of the flag, without actually implementing their own fallback or
triggering reclaim if necessary. This results in things like page
migration failing prematurely even when there is easily reclaimable
memory available, unless kswapd happens to be running already or a
concurrent allocation attempt triggers the necessary reclaim.
Convert all callsites that don't implement their own fallback strategy
to __GFP_THISNODE. This restricts the allocation a single node too, but
at the same time allows the allocator to enter the slowpath, wake
kswapd, and invoke direct reclaim if necessary, to make the allocation
happen when memory is full.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in
the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include)
that don't really have a specific maintainer.

The changed files were only including linux/module.h for the
EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure, and nothing else. Revector them
onto the isolated export header for faster compile times.
Nothing to see here but a whole lot of instances of:
-#include <linux/module.h>
+#include <linux/export.h>
This commit is only changing the kernel dir; next targets
will probably be mm, fs, the arch dirs, etc.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

valid
Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean
"allocate from the current node". However, a number of the callers in
fast paths know for a fact their node is valid. To avoid a comparison and
branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid
with VM_BUG_ON(). Callers that know their node is valid are then
converted.

Commit c309b917cab55799ea489d7b5f1b77025d9f8462 "cpumask: convert
kernel/profile.c" broke profiling. prof_cpu_mask was previously
initialized to CPU_MASK_ALL, but left uninitialized in that commit.

Impact: Reduce kernel memory usage, use new cpumask API.
Avoid a static cpumask_t for prof_cpu_mask, and an on-stack cpumask_t
in prof_cpu_mask_write_proc. Both become cpumask_var_t.
prof_cpu_mask is only allocated when profiling is on, but the NULL
checks are optimized out by gcc for the !CPUMASK_OFFSTACK case.
Also removed some strange and unnecessary casts.

cpulist_scnprintf to take pointers.
Impact: change calling convention of existing cpumask APIs
Most cpumask functions started with cpus_: these have been replaced by
cpumask_ ones which take struct cpumask pointers as expected.
These four functions don't have good replacement names; fortunately
they're rarely used, so we just change them over.

Impact: fix section mismatch warning in kernel/profile.c
Here, profile_nop function has been called from a non-init function
create_hash_tables(void). Which generetes a section mismatch warning.
Previously, create_hash_tables(void) was a init function. So, removing
__init from create_hash_tables(void) requires profile_nop to be
non-init.
This patch makes profile_nop function inline and fixes the
following warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6ebb6): Section mismatch in reference from
the function create_hash_tables() to the function
.init.text:profile_nop()
The function create_hash_tables() references
the function __init profile_nop().
This is often because create_hash_tables lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of profile_nop is wrong.

profile_init() calls in to alloc_bootmem() on early initialization. While
alloc_bootmem() is __init, the reference itself is safe in that it is
tucked below a !slab_is_available() check. So, flag profile_init() as
__ref.

Way too often, I have a machine that exhibits some kind of crappy
behavior. The CPU looks wedged in the kernel or it is spending way too
much system time and I wonder what is responsible.
I try to run readprofile. But, of course, Ubuntu doesn't enable it by
default. Dang!
The reason we boot-time enable it is that it takes a big bufffer that we
generally can only bootmem alloc. But, does it hurt to at least try and
runtime-alloc it?
To use:
echo 2 > /sys/kernel/profile
Then run readprofile like normal.
This should fix the compile issue with allmodconfig. I've compile-tested
on a bunch more configs now including a few more architectures.

Build kernel/profile.o only if CONFIG_PROFILING is enabled.
This makes CONFIG_PROFILING=n kernels smaller.
As a bonus, some profile_tick() calls and one branch from schedule() are
now eliminated with CONFIG_PROFILING=n (but I doubt these are
measurable effects).
This patch changes the effects of CONFIG_PROFILING=n, but I don't think
having more than two choices would be the better choice.
This patch also adds the name of the first parameter to the prototypes
of profile_{hits,tick}() since I anyway had to add them for the dummy
functions.
