[ Upstream commit 812a1c3b9f7c36d9255f0d29d0a3d324e2f52321 ]
A static analyzer for C, Smatch, reports and triggers below
warnings:
kernel/rcu/rcuscale.c:1215 rcu_scale_init()
warn: inconsistent returns 'global &fullstop_mutex'.
The checker complains about, we do not unlock the "fullstop_mutex"
mutex, in case of hitting below error path:
<snip>
...
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(jiffies_at_lazy_cb - jif_start < 2 * HZ)) {
pr_alert("ERROR: call_rcu() CBs are not being lazy as expected!\n");

<snip>
it happens because "-1" is returned right away instead of
doing a proper unwinding.
Fix it by jumping to "unwind" label instead of returning -1.

The above scenario will not only trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE(), but also
trigger a deadlock.
Thanks to nocb locking, a second racing rcu_barrier() on an offline CPU
will either observe the decremented callback counter down to 0 and spare
the callback enqueue, or rcuo will observe the new callback and keep
rdp->nocb_cb_sleep to false.
Therefore check rdp->nocb_cb_sleep before parking to make sure no
further rcu_barrier() is waiting on the rdp.

Sean noted that ever since commit 152e11f6df29 ("sched/fair: Implement
delayed dequeue") KVM's preemption notifiers have started
mis-classifying preemption vs blocking.
Notably p->on_rq is no longer sufficient to determine if a task is
runnable or blocked -- the aforementioned commit introduces tasks that
remain on the runqueue even through they will not run again, and
should be considered blocked for many cases.
Add the task_is_runnable() helper to classify things and audit all
external users of the p->on_rq state. Also add a few comments.

After a CPU has set itself offline and before it eventually calls
rcutree_report_cpu_dead(), there are still opportunities for callbacks
to be enqueued, for example from a softirq. When that happens on NOCB,
the rcuog wake-up is deferred through an IPI to an online CPU in order
not to call into the scheduler and risk arming the RT-bandwidth after
hrtimers have been migrated out and disabled.
But performing a synchronized IPI from a softirq is buggy as reported in
the following scenario:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 26 at kernel/smp.c:633 smp_call_function_single

Fix this with forcing deferred rcuog wake up through the NOCB timer when
the CPU is offline. The actual wake up will happen from
rcutree_report_cpu_dead().

Improve readability of kvfree_rcu_queue_batch() function

There is no reason to loop and check batches further as all
outstanding objects have already been picked and attached to
a certain batch to complete an offloading.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
"This time it's mostly refactoring and improving APIs for slab users in
the kernel, along with some debugging improvements.
- kmem_cache_create() refactoring (Christian Brauner)
Over the years have been growing new parameters to
kmem_cache_create() where most of them are needed only for a small
number of caches - most recently the rcu_freeptr_offset parameter.
To avoid adding new parameters to kmem_cache_create() and adjusting
all its callers, or creating new wrappers such as
kmem_cache_create_rcu(), we can now pass extra parameters using the
new struct kmem_cache_args. Not explicitly initialized fields
default to values interpreted as unused.
kmem_cache_create() is for now a wrapper that works both with the
new form: kmem_cache_create(name, object_size, args, flags) and the
legacy form: kmem_cache_create(name, object_size, align, flags,
ctor)
- kmem_cache_destroy() waits for kfree_rcu()'s in flight (Vlastimil
Babka, Uladislau Rezki)
Since SLOB removal, kfree() is allowed for freeing objects
allocated by kmem_cache_create(). By extension kfree_rcu() as
allowed as well, which can allow converting simple call_rcu()
callbacks that only do kmem_cache_free(), as there was never a
kmem_cache_free_rcu() variant. However, for caches that can be
destroyed e.g. on module removal, the cache owners knew to issue
rcu_barrier() first to wait for the pending call_rcu()'s, and this
is not sufficient for pending kfree_rcu()'s due to its internal
batching optimizations. Ulad has provided a new
kvfree_rcu_barrier() and to make the usage less error-prone,
kmem_cache_destroy() calls it. Additionally, destroying
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches now again issues rcu_barrier()
synchronously instead of using an async work, because the past
motivation for async work no longer applies. Users of custom
call_rcu() callbacks should however keep calling rcu_barrier()
before cache destruction.
- Debugging use-after-free in SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches (Jann Horn)
Currently, KASAN cannot catch UAFs in such caches as it is legal to
access them within a grace period, and we only track the grace
period when trying to free the underlying slab page. The new
CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG option changes the freeing of individual
object to be RCU-delayed, after which KASAN can poison them.
- Delayed memcg charging (Shakeel Butt)
In some cases, the memcg is uknown at allocation time, such as
receiving network packets in softirq context. With
kmem_cache_charge() these may be now charged later when the user
and its memcg is known.
- Misc fixes and improvements (Pedro Falcato, Axel Rasmussen,
Christoph Lameter, Yan Zhen, Peng Fan, Xavier)"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
"This is the "last" part of the support for the new nbcon consoles.
Where "nbcon" stays for "No Big console lock CONsoles" aka not under
the console_lock.
New callbacks are added to struct console:
- write_thread() for flushing nbcon consoles in task context.
- write_atomic() for flushing nbcon consoles in atomic context,
including NMI.
- con->device_lock() and device_unlock() for taking the driver
specific lock, for example, port->lock.
New printk-specific kthreads are created:
- per-console kthreads which get responsible for flushing normal
priority messages on nbcon consoles.
- thread which gets responsible for flushing normal priority messages
on all consoles when CONFIG_RT enabled.
The new callbacks are called under a special per-console lock which
has already been added back in v6.7. It allows to distinguish three
severities: normal, emergency, and panic. A context with a higher
priority could take over the ownership when it is safe even in the
middle of handling a record. The panic context could do it even when
it is not safe. But it is allowed only for the final desperate flush
before entering the infinite loop.
The new lock helps to flush the messages directly in emergency and
panic contexts. But it is not enough in all situations:
- console_lock() is still need for synchronization against boot
consoles.
- con->device_lock() is need for synchronization against other
operations on the same HW, e.g. serial port speed setting,
non-printk related read/write.
The dependency on con->device_lock() is mutual. Any code taking the
driver specific lock has to acquire the related nbcon console context
as well. For example, see the new uart_port_lock() API. It provides
the necessary synchronization against emergency and panic contexts
where the messages are flushed only under the new per-console lock.
Maybe surprisingly, a quite tricky part is the decision how to flush
the consoles in various situations. It has to take into account:
- message priority: normal, emergency, panic
- scheduling context: task, atomic, deferred_legacy
- registered consoles: boot, legacy, nbcon
- threads are running: early boot, suspend, shutdown, panic
- caller: printk(), pr_flush(), printk_flush_in_panic(),
console_unlock(), console_start(), ...
The primary decision is made in printk_get_console_flush_type(). It
creates a hint what the caller should do:
- flush nbcon consoles directly or via the kthread
- call the legacy loop (console_unlock()) directly or via irq_work
The existing behavior is preserved for the legacy consoles. The only
exception is that they are not longer flushed directly from printk()
in panic() before CPUs are stopped. But this blocking happens only
when at least one nbcon console is registered. The motivation is to
increase a chance to produce the crash dump. They legacy consoles
might create a deadlock in compare with nbcon consoles. The nbcon
console should allow to see the messages even when the crash dump
fails.
There are three possible ways how nbcon consoles are flushed:
- The per-nbcon-console kthread is responsible for flushing messages
added with the normal priority. This is the default mode.
- The legacy loop, aka console_unlock(), is used when there is still
a boot console registered. There is no easy way how to match an
early console driver with a nbcon console driver. And the
console_lock() provides the only reliable serialization at the
moment.
The legacy loop uses either con->write_atomic() or
con->write_thread() callbacks depending on whether it is allowed to
schedule. The atomic variant has to be used from printk().
- In other situations, the messages are flushed directly using
write_atomic() which can be called in any context, including NMI.
It is primary needed during early boot or shutdown, in emergency
situations, and panic.
The emergency priority is used by a code called within
nbcon_cpu_emergency_enter()/exit(). At the moment, it is used in four
situations: WARN(), Oops, lockdep, and RCU stall reports.
Finally, there is no nbcon console at the moment. It means that the
changes should _not_ modify the existing behavior. The only exception

The rcu_dump_cpu_stacks() holds the leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock
when dumping the stakcks of any CPUs stalling the current grace period.
This lock is held to prevent confusion that would otherwise occur when
the stalled CPU reported its quiescent state (and then went on to do
unrelated things) just as the backtrace NMI was heading towards it.
This has worked well, but on larger systems has recently been observed
to cause severe lock contention resulting in CSD-lock stalls and other
general unhappiness.
This commit therefore does printk_deferred_enter() before acquiring
the lock and printk_deferred_exit() after releasing it, thus deferring
the overhead of actually outputting the stack trace out of that lock's
critical section.

Pre-GP accesses performed by the update side must be ordered against
post-GP accesses performed by the readers. This is ensured by the
bypass or nocb locking on enqueue time, followed by the fully ordered
rnp locking initiated while callbacks are accelerated, and then
propagated throughout the whole GP lifecyle associated with the
callbacks.
Therefore the explicit barrier advertizing ordering between bypass
enqueue and rcuo wakeup is superfluous. If anything, it would even only
order the first bypass callback enqueue against the rcuo wakeup and
ignore all the subsequent ones.
Remove the needless barrier.

A callback enqueuer currently wakes up the rcuo kthread if it is adding
the first non-done callback of a CPU, whether the kthread is waiting on
a grace period or not (unless the CPU is offline).
This looks like a desired behaviour because then the rcuo kthread
doesn't wait for the end of the current grace period to handle the
callback. It is accelerated right away and assigned to the next grace
period. The GP kthread is notified about that fact and iterates with
the upcoming GP without sleeping in-between.
However this best-case scenario is contradicted by a few details,
depending on the situation:
1) If the callback is a non-bypass one queued with IRQs enabled, the
wake up only occurs if no other pending callbacks are on the list.
Therefore the theoretical "optimization" actually applies on rare
occasions.
2) If the callback is a non-bypass one queued with IRQs disabled, the
situation is similar with even more uncertainty due to the deferred
wake up.
3) If the callback is lazy, a few jiffies don't make any difference.
4) If the callback is bypass, the wake up timer is programmed 2 jiffies
ahead by rcuo in case the regular pending queue has been handled
in the meantime. The rare storm of callbacks can otherwise wait for
the currently elapsing grace period to be flushed and handled.
For all those reasons, the optimization is only theoretical and
occasional. Therefore it is reasonable that callbacks enqueuers only
wake up the rcuo kthread when it is not already waiting on a grace
period to complete.

After a CPU is marked offline and until it reaches its final trip to
idle, rcuo has several opportunities to be woken up, either because
a callback has been queued in the meantime or because
rcutree_report_cpu_dead() has issued the final deferred NOCB wake up.
If RCU-boosting is enabled, RCU kthreads are set to SCHED_FIFO policy.
And if RT-bandwidth is enabled, the related hrtimer might be armed.
However this then happens after hrtimers have been migrated at the
CPUHP_AP_HRTIMERS_DYING stage, which is broken as reported by the
following warning:
Call trace:
enqueue_hrtimer+0x7c/0xf8
hrtimer_start_range_ns+0x2b8/0x300

Fix this with waking up rcuo using an IPI if necessary. Since the
existing API to deal with this situation only handles swait queue, rcuo
is only woken up from offline CPUs if it's not already waiting on a
grace period. In the worst case some callbacks will just wait for a
grace period to complete before being assigned to a subsequent one.

Now that the (de-)offloading process can only apply to offline CPUs,
there is no more concurrency between rcu_core and nocb kthreads. Also
the mutation now happens on empty queues.
Therefore the state machine can be reduced to a single bit called
SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED. Simplify the transition as follows:
* Upon offloading: queue the rdp to be added to the rcuog list and
wait for the rcuog kthread to set the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED bit. Unpark
rcuo kthread.
* Upon de-offloading: Park rcuo kthread. Queue the rdp to be removed
from the rcuog list and wait for the rcuog kthread to clear the
SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED bit.

When soft interrupt actions are called, they are passed a pointer to the
struct softirq action which contains the action's function pointer.
This pointer isn't useful, as the action callback already knows what
function it is. And since each callback handles a specific soft interrupt,
the callback also knows which soft interrupt number is running.
No soft interrupt action callback actually uses this parameter, so remove
it from the function pointer signature. This clarifies that soft interrupt
actions are global routines and makes it slightly cheaper to call them.

The current rcu_scale_writer() asynchronous grace-period testing uses a
per-CPU counter to track the number of outstanding callbacks. This is
subject to CPU-imbalance errors when tasks migrate from one CPU to another
between the time that the counter is incremented and the callback is
queued, and additionally in kernels configured such that callbacks can
be invoked on some CPU other than the one that queued it.
This commit therefore arranges for per-task callback counts, thus avoiding
any issues with migration of either tasks or callbacks.

Under some conditions, kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) allocations have been
observed to repeatedly fail. This situation has been observed to
cause one of the rcu_scale_writer() instances to loop indefinitely
retrying memory allocation for an asynchronous grace-period primitive.
The problem is that if memory is short, all the other instances will
allocate all available memory before the looping task is awakened from
its rcu_barrier*() call. This in turn results in hangs, so that rcuscale
fails to complete.
This commit therefore removes the tight retry loop, so that when this
condition occurs, the affected task is still passing through the full
loop with its full set of termination checks. This spreads the risk
of indefinite memory-allocation retry failures across all instances of
rcu_scale_writer() tasks, which in turn prevents the hangs.

Calling dump_cpu_task() doesn't required to be in non-preemptible context
except for suppressing the smp_processor_id() warning.
As the smp_processor_id() is evaluated along with in_hardirq()
to check if it's in interrupt context, this patch removes the need
for its preemtion disablement by reordering the condition so that
smp_processor_id() only gets evaluated when it's in interrupt context.
