When rcu_barrier() calls rcu_rdp_cpu_online() and observes a CPU off
rnp->qsmaskinitnext, it means that all accesses from the offline CPU
preceding the CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU are visible to RCU barrier, including
callbacks expiration and counter updates.
However interrupts can still fire after stop_machine() re-enables
interrupts and before rcutree_report_cpu_dead(). The related accesses
happening between CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU and rnp->qsmaskinitnext clearing
are _NOT_ guaranteed to be seen by rcu_barrier() without proper
ordering, especially when callbacks are invoked there to the end, making
rcutree_migrate_callback() bypass barrier_lock.
The following theoretical race example can make rcu_barrier() hang:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
//cpu_down()
smpboot_park_threads()
//ksoftirqd is parked now
<IRQ>
rcu_sched_clock_irq()
invoke_rcu_core()
do_softirq()
rcu_core()
rcu_do_batch()
// callback storm
// rcu_do_batch() returns
// before completing all
// of them
// do_softirq also returns early because of
// timeout. It defers to ksoftirqd but
// it's parked
</IRQ>
stop_machine()
take_cpu_down()
rcu_barrier()
spin_lock(barrier_lock)
// observes rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(&rdp->cblist) != 0
<IRQ>
do_softirq()
rcu_core()
rcu_do_batch()
//completes all pending callbacks
//smp_mb() implied _after_ callback number dec
</IRQ>
rcutree_report_cpu_dead()
rnp->qsmaskinitnext &= ~rdp->grpmask;
rcutree_migrate_callback()
// no callback, early return without locking
// barrier_lock
//observes !rcu_rdp_cpu_online(rdp)
rcu_barrier_entrain()
rcu_segcblist_entrain()
// Observe rcu_segcblist_n_cbs(rsclp) == 0
// because no barrier between reading
// rnp->qsmaskinitnext and rsclp->len
rcu_segcblist_add_len()
smp_mb__before_atomic()
// will now observe the 0 count and empty
// list, but too late, we enqueue regardless
WRITE_ONCE(rsclp->len, rsclp->len + v);
// ignored barrier callback
// rcu barrier stall...
This could be solved with a read memory barrier, enforcing the message
passing between rnp->qsmaskinitnext and rsclp->len, matching the full
memory barrier after rsclp->len addition in rcu_segcblist_add_len()
performed at the end of rcu_do_batch().
However the rcu_barrier() is complicated enough and probably doesn't
need too many more subtleties. CPU down is a slowpath and the
barrier_lock seldom contended. Solve the issue with unconditionally
locking the barrier_lock on rcutree_migrate_callbacks(). This makes sure
that either rcu_barrier() sees the empty queue or its entrained
callback will be migrated.

The rcu_sync structure's ->gp_count field is always accessed under the
protection of that same structure's ->rss_lock field, with the exception
of a pair of WARN_ON_ONCE() calls just prior to acquiring that lock in
functions rcu_sync_exit() and rcu_sync_dtor(). These lockless accesses
are unnecessary and impair KCSAN's ability to catch bugs that might be
inserted via other lockless accesses.
This commit therefore moves those WARN_ON_ONCE() calls under the lock.

If a CPU is running either a userspace application or a guest OS in
nohz_full mode, it is possible for a system call to occur just as an
RCU grace period is starting. If that CPU also has the scheduling-clock
tick enabled for any reason (such as a second runnable task), and if the
system was booted with rcutree.use_softirq=0, then RCU can add insult to
injury by awakening that CPU's rcuc kthread, resulting in yet another
task and yet more OS jitter due to switching to that task, running it,
and switching back.
In addition, in the common case where that system call is not of
excessively long duration, awakening the rcuc task is pointless.
This pointlessness is due to the fact that the CPU will enter an extended
quiescent state upon returning to the userspace application or guest OS.
In this case, the rcuc kthread cannot do anything that the main RCU
grace-period kthread cannot do on its behalf, at least if it is given
a few additional milliseconds (for example, given the time duration
specified by rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs, give or take scheduling
delays).
This commit therefore adds a rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay kernel
boot parameter that specifies the grace period age (in milliseconds,
rounded to jiffies) before which RCU will refrain from awakening the
rcuc kthread. Preliminary experimentation suggests a value of 1000,
that is, one second. Increasing rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay will
increase grace-period latency and in turn increase memory footprint,
so systems with constrained memory might choose a smaller value.
Systems with less-aggressive OS-jitter requirements might choose the
default value of zero, which keeps the traditional immediate-wakeup
behavior, thus avoiding increases in grace-period latency.

A full memory barrier is necessary at the end of the expedited grace
period to order:
1) The grace period completion (pictured by the GP sequence
number) with all preceding accesses. This pairs with rcu_seq_end()
performed by the concurrent kworker.
2) The grace period completion and subsequent post-GP update side
accesses. Pairs again against rcu_seq_end().
This full barrier is already provided by the final sync_exp_work_done()
test, making the subsequent explicit one redundant. Remove it and
improve comments.

When the boot CPU initializes the per-CPU data on behalf of all possible
CPUs, a sanity check is performed on each of them to make sure none is
initialized in an extended quiescent state.
This check involves a full memory barrier which is useless at this early

When the grace period kthread checks the extended quiescent state
counter of a CPU, full ordering is necessary to ensure that either:
* If the GP kthread observes the remote target in an extended quiescent
state, then that target must observe all accesses prior to the current
grace period, including the current grace period sequence number, once
it exits that extended quiescent state.
or:
* If the GP kthread observes the remote target NOT in an extended
quiescent state, then the target further entering in an extended
quiescent state must observe all accesses prior to the current
grace period, including the current grace period sequence number, once
it enters that extended quiescent state.
This ordering is enforced through a full memory barrier placed right
before taking the first EQS snapshot. However this is superfluous
because the snapshot is taken while holding the target's rnp lock which
provides the necessary ordering through its chain of
smp_mb__after_unlock_lock().
Remove the needless explicit barrier before the snapshot and put a
comment about the implicit barrier newly relied upon here.

When the grace period kthread checks the extended quiescent state

* If the GP kthread observes the remote target in an extended quiescent
state, then that target must observe all accesses prior to the current
grace period, including the current grace period sequence number, once
it exits that extended quiescent state. Also the GP kthread must
observe all accesses performed by the target prior it entering in
EQS.
or:
* If the GP kthread observes the remote target NOT in an extended
quiescent state, then the target further entering in an extended
quiescent state must observe all accesses prior to the current
grace period, including the current grace period sequence number, once
it enters that extended quiescent state. Also the GP kthread later
observing that EQS must also observe all accesses performed by the
target prior it entering in EQS.
This ordering is explicitly performed both on the first EQS snapshot
and on the second one as well through the combination of a preceding
full barrier followed by an acquire read. However the second snapshot's
full memory barrier is redundant and not needed to enforce the above
guarantees:
GP kthread Remote target
---- -----
// Access prior GP
WRITE_ONCE(A, 1)
// first snapshot
smp_mb()
x = smp_load_acquire(EQS)
// Access prior GP
WRITE_ONCE(B, 1)
// EQS enter
// implied full barrier by atomic_add_return()
atomic_add_return(RCU_DYNTICKS_IDX, EQS)
// implied full barrier by atomic_add_return()
READ_ONCE(A)
// second snapshot
y = smp_load_acquire(EQS)
z = READ_ONCE(B)
If the GP kthread above fails to observe the remote target in EQS
(x not in EQS), the remote target will observe A == 1 after further
entering in EQS. Then the second snapshot taken by the GP kthread only
need to be an acquire read in order to observe z == 1.
Therefore remove the needless full memory barrier on second snapshot.

In the synchronize_rcu() common case, we will have less than
SR_MAX_USERS_WAKE_FROM_GP number of users per GP. Waking up the kworker
is pointless just to free the last injected wait head since at that point,
all the users have already been awakened.
Introduce a new counter to track this and prevent the wakeup in the
common case.

When RCU-TASKS-TRACE pre-gp takes a snapshot of the current task running
on all online CPUs, no explicit ordering synchronizes properly with a
context switch. This lack of ordering can permit the new task to miss
pre-grace-period update-side accesses. The following diagram, courtesy
of Paul, shows the possible bad scenario:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
// Pre-GP update side access
WRITE_ONCE(*X, 1);
smp_mb();
r0 = rq->curr;
RCU_INIT_POINTER(rq->curr, TASK_B)
spin_unlock(rq)
rcu_read_lock_trace()
r1 = X;
/* ignore TASK_B */
Either r0==TASK_B or r1==1 is needed but neither is guaranteed.
One possible solution to solve this is to wait for an RCU grace period
at the beginning of the RCU-tasks-trace grace period before taking the
current tasks snaphot. However this would introduce large additional
latencies to RCU-tasks-trace grace periods.
Another solution is to lock the target runqueue while taking the current
task snapshot. This ensures that the update side sees the latest context
switch and subsequent context switches will see the pre-grace-period
update side accesses.
This commit therefore adds runqueue locking to cpu_curr_snapshot().

On powerpc systems, spinlock acquisition does not order prior stores
against later loads. This means that this statement:
rfcp->rfc_next = NULL;
Can be reordered to follow this statement:
WRITE_ONCE(*rfcpp, rfcp);
Which is then a data race with rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr(), specifically,
this statement:
rfcpn = READ_ONCE(rfcp->rfc_next)
KCSAN located this data race, which represents a real failure on powerpc.

This reverts commit 28319d6dc5e2ffefa452c2377dd0f71621b5bff0. The race
it fixed was subject to conditions that don't exist anymore since:
1612160b9127 ("rcu-tasks: Eliminate deadlocks involving do_exit() and RCU tasks")
This latter commit removes the use of SRCU that used to cover the
RCU-tasks blind spot on exit between the tasklist's removal and the
final preemption disabling. The task is now placed instead into a
temporary list inside which voluntary sleeps are accounted as RCU-tasks
quiescent states. This would disarm the deadlock initially reported
against PID namespace exit.

The bypass lock contention mitigation assumes there can be at most
2 contenders on the bypass lock, following this scheme:
1) One kthread takes the bypass lock
2) Another one spins on it and increment the contended counter
3) A third one (a bypass enqueuer) sees the contended counter on and
busy loops waiting on it to decrement.
However this assumption is wrong. There can be only one CPU to find the
lock contended because call_rcu() (the bypass enqueuer) is the only
bypass lock acquire site that may not already hold the NOCB lock
beforehand, all the other sites must first contend on the NOCB lock.
Therefore step 2) is impossible.
The other problem is that the mitigation assumes that contenders all
belong to the same rdp CPU, which is also impossible for a raw spinlock.
In theory the warning could trigger if the enqueuer holds the bypass
lock and another CPU flushes the bypass queue concurrently but this is
prevented from all flush users:
1) NOCB kthreads only flush if they successfully _tried_ to lock the
bypass lock. So no contention management here.
2) Flush on callbacks migration happen remotely when the CPU is offline.
No concurrency against bypass enqueue.
3) Flush on deoffloading happen either locally with IRQs disabled or
remotely when the CPU is not yet online. No concurrency against
bypass enqueue.
4) Flush on barrier entrain happen either locally with IRQs disabled or
remotely when the CPU is offline. No concurrency against
bypass enqueue.
For those reasons, the bypass lock contention mitigation isn't needed
and is even wrong. Remove it but keep the warning reporting a contended
bypass lock on a remote CPU, to keep unexpected contention awareness.

Upon NOCB deoffloading, the rcuo kthread must be forced to sleep
until the corresponding rdp is ever offloaded again. The deoffloader
clears the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED flag, wakes up the rcuo kthread which
then notices that change and clears in turn its SEGCBLIST_KTHREAD_CB
flag before going to sleep, until it ever sees the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED
flag again, should a re-offloading happen.
Upon NOCB offloading, the rcuo kthread must be forced to wake up and
handle callbacks until the corresponding rdp is ever deoffloaded again.
The offloader sets the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED flag, wakes up the rcuo
kthread which then notices that change and sets in turn its
SEGCBLIST_KTHREAD_CB flag before going to check callbacks, until it
ever sees the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED flag cleared again, should a
de-offloading happen again.
This is all a crude ad-hoc and error-prone kthread (un-)parking
re-implementation.
Consolidate the behaviour with the appropriate API instead.

When the rcutorture tests start to exit, the rcu_torture_cleanup() is
invoked to stop kthreads and release resources, if the stall-task
kthreads exist, cpu-stall has started and the rcutorture.stall_cpu
is set to a larger value, the rcu_torture_cleanup() will be blocked
for a long time and the hung-task may occur, this commit therefore
add kthread_should_stop() to the loop of cpu-stall operation, when
rcutorture tests ends, no need to wait for cpu-stall to end, exit
directly.
Use the following command to test:

Despite there being a cur_ops->gp_kthread_dbg(), rcu_torture_writer()
unconditionally invokes vanilla RCU's show_rcu_gp_kthreads(). This is not
at all helpful when some other flavor of RCU is being tested. This commit
therefore makes rcu_torture_writer() invoke cur_ops->gp_kthread_dbg()

Currently, the rcu_torture_pipe_update_one() writes the value (i + 1)
to rp->rtort_pipe_count, then immediately re-reads it in order to compare
it to RCU_TORTURE_PIPE_LEN. This re-read is pointless because no other
update to rp->rtort_pipe_count can occur at this point. This commit
therefore instead re-uses the (i + 1) value stored in the comparison
instead of re-reading rp->rtort_pipe_count.

This patch introduces a small enhancement which allows to do a
direct wake-up of synchronize_rcu() callers. It occurs after a
completion of grace period, thus by the gp-kthread.
Number of clients is limited by the hard-coded maximum allowed
threshold. The remaining part, if still exists is deferred to
a main worker.

Add an rcu_sr_normal() trace event. It takes three arguments
first one is the name of RCU flavour, second one is a user id
which triggeres synchronize_rcu_normal() and last one is an
event.
There are two traces in the synchronize_rcu_normal(). On entry,
when a new request is registered and on exit point when request
is completed.
Please note, CONFIG_RCU_TRACE=y is required to activate traces.

A call to a synchronize_rcu() can be optimized from a latency
point of view. Workloads which depend on this can benefit of it.
The delay of wakeme_after_rcu() callback, which unblocks a waiter,
depends on several factors:
- how fast a process of offloading is started. Combination of:
- !CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU/CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU;
- !CONFIG_RCU_LAZY/CONFIG_RCU_LAZY;
- other.
- when started, invoking path is interrupted due to:
- time limit;
- need_resched();
- if limit is reached.
- where in a nocb list it is located;
- how fast previous callbacks completed;
Example:
1. On our embedded devices i can easily trigger the scenario when
it is a last in the list out of ~3600 callbacks:
<snip>
<...>-29 [001] d..1. 21950.145313: rcu_batch_start: rcu_preempt CBs=3613 bl=28

<snip>
2. We use cpuset/cgroup to classify tasks and assign them into
different cgroups. For example "backgrond" group which binds tasks
only to little CPUs or "foreground" which makes use of all CPUs.
Tasks can be migrated between groups by a request if an acceleration
is needed.
See below an example how "surfaceflinger" task gets migrated.
Initially it is located in the "system-background" cgroup which
allows to run only on little cores. In order to speed it up it
can be temporary moved into "foreground" cgroup which allows
to use big/all CPUs:
cgroup_attach_task():
-> cgroup_migrate_execute()
-> cpuset_can_attach()
-> percpu_down_write()
-> rcu_sync_enter()
-> synchronize_rcu()
-> now move tasks to the new cgroup.
-> cgroup_migrate_finish()
<snip>
rcuop/1-29 [000] ..... 7030.528570: rcu_invoke_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=00000000461605e0 func=wakeme_after_rcu.cfi_jt

TimerDispatch-2768 [002] d..5. 7030.537542: sched_migrate_task: comm=surfaceflinger pid=1900 prio=98 orig_cpu=0 dest_cpu=4
<snip>
"Boosting a task" depends on synchronize_rcu() latency:
- first trace shows a completion of synchronize_rcu();
- second shows attaching a task to a new group;
- last shows a final step when migration occurs.
3. To address this drawback, maintain a separate track that consists
of synchronize_rcu() callers only. After completion of a grace period
users are deferred to a dedicated worker to process requests.
4. This patch reduces the latency of synchronize_rcu() approximately
by ~30-40% on synthetic tests. The real test case, camera launch time,
shows(time is in milliseconds):
1-run 542 vs 489 improvement 9%
2-run 540 vs 466 improvement 13%
3-run 518 vs 468 improvement 9%
4-run 531 vs 457 improvement 13%
5-run 548 vs 475 improvement 13%
6-run 509 vs 484 improvement 4%
Synthetic test(no "noise" from other callbacks):
Hardware: x86_64 64 CPUs, 64GB of memory
Linux-6.6
- 10K tasks(simultaneous);
- each task does(1000 loops)
synchronize_rcu();
kfree(p);
default: CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU: takes 54 seconds to complete all users;
patch: CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU: takes 35 seconds to complete all users.
Running 60K gives approximately same results on my setup. Please note
it is without any interaction with another type of callbacks, otherwise
it will impact a lot a default case.
5. By default it is disabled. To enable this perform one of the
below sequence:
echo 1 > /sys/module/rcutree/parameters/rcu_normal_wake_from_gp
or pass a boot parameter "rcutree.rcu_normal_wake_from_gp=1"

The rcuc-starvation output from print_cpu_stall_info() might overflow the
buffer if there is a huge difference in jiffies difference. The situation
might seem improbable, but computers sometimes get very confused about
time, which can result in full-sized integers, and, in this case,
buffer overflow.
Also, the unsigned jiffies difference is printed using %ld, which is
normally for signed integers. This is intentional for debugging purposes,
but it is not obvious from the code.
This commit therefore changes sprintf() to snprintf() and adds a
clarifying comment about intention of %ld format.

Tasks Trace RCU needs a single-byte cmpxchg(), but no such thing exists.
Therefore, rcu_trc_cmpxchg_need_qs() emulates one using field substitution
and a four-byte cmpxchg(), such that the other three bytes are always
atomically updated to their old values. This works, but results in
false-positive KCSAN failures because as far as KCSAN knows, this
cmpxchg() operation is updating all four bytes.
This commit therefore encloses the cmpxchg() in a data_race() and adds
a single-byte instrument_atomic_read_write(), thus telling KCSAN exactly
what is going on so as to avoid the false positives.

Currently, there are rcu_data structure fields named ->rcu_onl_gp_seq
and ->rcu_ofl_gp_seq that track the rcu_state.gp_flags field at the
time of the corresponding CPU's last online or offline operation,
respectively. However, this information is not particularly useful.
It would be better to instead track the grace period state kept
in rcu_state.gp_state. This would also be consistent with the
initialization in rcu_boot_init_percpu_data(), which is to RCU_GP_CLEANED
(an rcu_state.gp_state value), and also with the diagnostics in
rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs(), whose format is consistent with an integer,
not a bitmask.
This commit therefore makes this change and changes the names to
->rcu_onl_gp_flags and ->rcu_ofl_gp_flags, respectively.

This commit therefore uses WRITE_ONCE() to do this update to clearly
document its racy nature.

This commit adds READ_ONCE() to a lockless diagnostic read from
rcu_state.gp_flags to avoid giving the compiler any chance whatsoever
of confusing the diagnostic state printed.

Although it is functionally OK to do READ_ONCE() of a variable that
cannot change, it is confusing and at best an accident waiting to happen.
This commit therefore removes a number of READ_ONCE(rcu_state.gp_flags)
instances from kernel/rcu/tree.c that are not needed due to updates
to this field being excluded by virtue of holding the root rcu_node
structure's ->lock.

Because Tiny RCU is used only in kernels built with either
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y, there has not been
any need for TINY RCU to explicitly disable preemption. However, the
prospect of lazy preemption changes that, and preemption means that
the non-atomic increment in synchronize_rcu() can be preempted, with
the possibility that one of the increments is lost. This could cause
failures for users of the APIs that poll RCU grace periods.
This commit therefore adds the needed preempt_disable() and
preempt_enable() call to Tiny RCU.

The TINY_RCU rcu_process_callbacks() function is only ever invoked from
a softirq handler, which means that BH is already disabled. This commit
therefore removes the redundant local_bh_disable() and local_bh_ennable()
from this function.

Currently, if a Kconfig option depends on TASKS_RCU, it conditionally does
"select TASKS_RCU if PREEMPTION". This works, but requires any change in
this enablement logic to be replicated across all such "select" clauses.
This commit therefore creates a new NEED_TASKS_RCU Kconfig option so
that the default value of TASKS_RCU can depend on a combination of this
new option and any needed enablement logic, so that this logic is in
one place.
While in the area, also anticipate a likely future change by adding
PREEMPT_AUTO to that logic.

Because Tiny SRCU is used only in kernels built with either
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y, there has not
been any need for TINY SRCU to explicitly disable preemption. However,
the prospect of lazy preemption changes that, and the lazy-preemption
patches do result in rcutorture runs finding both too-short grace periods
and grace-period hangs for Tiny SRCU.
This commit therefore adds the needed preempt_disable() and
preempt_enable() calls to Tiny SRCU.
