Sangmoon Kim 565cfb9e64 rcu/tree: Add a trace event for RCU CPU stall warnings
This commit adds a trace event which allows tracing the beginnings of RCU
CPU stall warnings on systems where sysctl_panic_on_rcu_stall is disabled.

The first parameter is the name of RCU flavor like other trace events.
The second parameter indicates whether this is a stall of an expedited
grace period, a self-detected stall of a normal grace period, or a stall
of a normal grace period detected by some CPU other than the one that
is stalled.

RCU CPU stall warnings are often caused by external-to-RCU issues,
for example, in interrupt handling or task scheduling.  Therefore,
this event uses TRACE_EVENT, not TRACE_EVENT_RCU, to avoid requiring
those interested in tracing RCU CPU stalls to rebuild their kernels
with CONFIG_RCU_TRACE=y.

Neeraj Upadhyay 683954e55c rcu: Check and report missed fqs timer wakeup on RCU stall
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.

Paul E. McKenney 243027a3c8 rcu: For RCU grace-period kthread starvation, dump last CPU it ran on
When the RCU CPU stall-warning code detects that the RCU grace-period
kthread is being starved, it dumps that kthread's stack.  This can
sometimes be useful, but it is also useful to know what is running on the
CPU that this kthread is attempting to run on.  This commit therefore
adds a stack trace of this CPU in order to help track down whatever it
is that might be preventing RCU's grace-period kthread from running.

Paul E. McKenney c583bcb8f5 rcu: Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled
The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function requires that
interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts disabled from
rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not enabled as expected"
diagnostic.  This commit therefore updates rcu_print_task_stall()
to accumulate a list of the first few tasks while holding the current
leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock, then releases that lock and only then
uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to attempt to obtain per-task
detailed information.  Of course, as soon as ->lock is released, the
task might exit, so the get_task_struct() function is used to prevent
the task structure from going away in the meantime.

but more can be even more helpful.

To this end, this commit adds the nesting level, whether the task
thinks it was preempted in its current RCU read-side critical section,
whether RCU core has asked this task for a quiescent state, whether the
expedited-grace-period hint is set, and whether the task believes that
it is on the blocked-tasks list (it must be, or it would not be printed,
but if things are broken, best not to take too much for granted).

Paul E. McKenney 6be7436d22 rcu: Add rcu_gp_might_be_stalled()
This commit adds rcu_gp_might_be_stalled(), which returns true if there
is some reason to believe that the RCU grace period is stalled.  The use
case is where an RCU free-memory path needs to allocate memory in order
to free it, a situation that should be avoided where possible.

But where it is necessary, there is always the alternative of using
synchronize_rcu() to wait for a grace period in order to avoid the
allocation.  And if the grace period is stalled, allocating memory to
asynchronously wait for it is a bad idea of epic proportions: Far better
to let others use the memory, because these others might actually be
able to free that memory before the grace period ends.

Thus, rcu_gp_might_be_stalled() can be used to help decide whether
allocating memory on an RCU free path is a semi-reasonable course
of action.

Zhaolong Zhang fcbcc0e700 rcu: Fix the (t=0 jiffies) false positive
It is possible that an over-long grace period will end while the RCU
CPU stall warning message is printing.  In this case, the estimate of
the offending grace period's duration can be erroneous due to refetching
of rcu_state.gp_start, which will now be the time of the newly started
grace period.  Computation of this duration clearly needs to use the
start time for the old over-long grace period, not the fresh new one.
This commit avoids such errors by causing both print_other_cpu_stall() and
print_cpu_stall() to reuse the value previously fetched by their caller.

Although the accesses used to determine whether or not a stall should

use of the corresponding variables, the values that are simply printed

Paul E. McKenney 58c53360b3 rcutorture: Allow boottime stall warnings to be suppressed
In normal production, an RCU CPU stall warning at boottime is often
just as bad as at any other time.  In fact, given the desire for fast
boot, any sort of long-term stall at boot is a bad idea.  However,
heavy rcutorture testing on large hyperthreaded systems can generate
boottime RCU CPU stalls as a matter of course.  This commit therefore
provides a kernel boot parameter that suppresses reporting of boottime
RCU CPU stall warnings and similarly of rcutorture writer stalls.

Paul E. McKenney 5648d65912 rcu: Don't flag non-starting GPs before GP kthread is running
Currently rcu_check_gp_start_stall() complains if a grace period takes
too long to start, where "too long" is roughly one RCU CPU stall-warning
interval.  This has worked well, but there are some debugging Kconfig
options (such as CONFIG_EFI_PGT_DUMP=y) that can make booting take a
very long time, so much so that the stall-warning interval has expired
before RCU's grace-period kthread has even been spawned.

This commit therefore resets the rcu_state.gp_req_activity and
rcu_state.gp_activity timestamps just before the grace-period kthread
is spawned, and modifies the checks and adds ordering to ensure that
if rcu_check_gp_start_stall() sees that the grace-period kthread
has been spawned, that it will also see the resets applied to the
rcu_state.gp_req_activity and rcu_state.gp_activity timestamps.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - MAINTAINERS: Add Mark Rutland as perf submaintainer, Juri Lelli and
   Vincent Guittot as scheduler submaintainers. Add Dietmar Eggemann,
   Steven Rostedt, Ben Segall and Mel Gorman as scheduler reviewers.

   As perf and the scheduler is getting bigger and more complex,
   document the status quo of current responsibilities and interests,
   and spread the review pain^H^H^H^H fun via an increase in the Cc:
   linecount generated by scripts/get_maintainer.pl. :-)

 - Add another series of patches that brings the -rt (PREEMPT_RT) tree
   closer to mainline: split the monolithic CONFIG_PREEMPT dependencies
   into a new CONFIG_PREEMPTION category that will allow the eventual
   introduction of CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Still a few more hundred patches
   to go though.

 - Extend the CPU cgroup controller with uclamp.min and uclamp.max to
   allow the finer shaping of CPU bandwidth usage.

 - Micro-optimize energy-aware wake-ups from O(CPUS^2) to O(CPUS).

 - Improve the behavior of high CPU count, high thread count
   applications running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints.

 - Improve balancing with SCHED_IDLE (SCHED_BATCH) tasks present.

 - Improve CPU isolation housekeeping CPU allocation NUMA locality.

 - Fix deadline scheduler bandwidth calculations and logic when cpusets
   rebuilds the topology, or when it gets deadline-throttled while it's
   being offlined.

 - Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from
   setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization.
   Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and
   the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken
   before.

 - Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more
   optimal.

 - Rework (simplify) the pick_next_task() slowpath.

 - Improve load-balancing on AMD EPYC systems.

 - ... and misc cleanups, smaller fixes and improvements - please see
   the Git log for more details.

Neeraj Upadhyay 3ae976a7e3 rcu: Correctly unlock root node in rcu_check_gp_start_stall()
On systems whose rcu_node tree has only one node, the
rcu_check_gp_start_stall() function's values of rnp and rnp_root will
be identical.  In this case, it clearly does not make sense to release
both rnp->lock and rnp_root->lock, but that is exactly what this function
does in the last early exit.  This commit therefore unlocks only rnp->lock
when rnp and rnp_root are equal.

The rcu_print_detail_task_stall(), rcu_print_task_stall_begin(), and

This commit saves a few lines of code by inlining them into their sole
callers.

While in the area, a useless call of rcu_print_detail_task_stall_rnp()
on the root rcu_node structure was eliminated.  If there is only one
rcu_node structure, its tasks get printed twice, but if there are more,
the root rcu_node structure is guaranteed to have an empty list of blocked
tasks, hence the uselessness.  (Long ago, root rcu_node structures with
non-empty ->blkd_tasks lists could happen, but no longer.)
