rcu: add call_rcu_sched() Fourth cut of patch to provide the call_rcu_sched(). This is again to synchronize_sched() as call_rcu() is to synchronize_rcu(). Should be fine for experimental and -rt use, but not ready for inclusion. With some luck, I will be able to tell Andrew to come out of hiding on the next round. Passes multi-day rcutorture sessions with concurrent CPU hotplugging. Fixes since the first version include a bug that could result in indefinite blocking (spotted by Gautham Shenoy), better resiliency against CPU-hotplug operations, and other minor fixes. Fixes since the second version include reworking grace-period detection to avoid deadlocks that could happen when running concurrently with CPU hotplug, adding Mathieu's fix to avoid the softlockup messages, as well as Mathieu's fix to allow use earlier in boot. Fixes since the third version include a wrong-CPU bug spotted by Andrew, getting rid of the obsolete synchronize_kernel API that somehow snuck back in, merging spin_unlock() and local_irq_restore() in a few places, commenting the code that checks for quiescent states based on interrupting from user-mode execution or the idle loop, removing some inline attributes, and some code-style changes. Known/suspected shortcomings: o I still do not entirely trust the sleep/wakeup logic. Next step will be to use a private snapshot of the CPU online mask in rcu_sched_grace_period() -- if the CPU wasn't there at the start of the grace period, we don't need to hear from it. And the bit about accounting for changes in online CPUs inside of rcu_sched_grace_period() is ugly anyway. o It might be good for rcu_sched_grace_period() to invoke resched_cpu() when a given CPU wasn't responding quickly, but resched_cpu() is declared static... This patch also fixes a long-standing bug in the earlier preemptable-RCU implementation of synchronize_rcu() that could result in loss of concurrent external changes to a task's CPU affinity mask. I still cannot remember who reported this... Signed-off-by: Paul E.

tree/tiny rcu: Add debug RCU head objects Helps finding racy users of call_rcu(), which results in hangs because list entries are overwritten and/or skipped. Changelog since v4: - Bissectability is now OK - Now generate a WARN_ON_ONCE() for non-initialized rcu_head passed to call_rcu(). Statically initialized objects are detected with object_is_static(). - Rename rcu_head_init_on_stack to init_rcu_head_on_stack. - Remove init_rcu_head() completely. Changelog since v3: - Include comments from Lai Jiangshan This new patch version is based on the debugobjects with the newly introduced "active state" tracker. Non-initialized entries are all considered as "statically initialized". An activation fixup (triggered by call_rcu()) takes care of performing the debug object initialization without issuing any warning. Since we cannot increase the size of struct rcu_head, I don't see much room to put an identifier for statically initialized rcu_head structures. So for now, we have to live without "activation without explicit init" detection. But the main purpose of this debug option is to detect double-activations (double call_rcu() use of a rcu_head before the callback is executed), which is correctly addressed here. This also detects potential internal RCU callback corruption, which would cause the callbacks to be executed twice. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> CC: David S.

rcu: Merge preemptable-RCU functionality into hierarchical RCU Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef, empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics). These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c for this purpose. This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new algorithm. The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations over the past 18 months.

"Tree RCU": scalable classic RCU implementation This patch fixes a long-standing performance bug in classic RCU that results in massive internal-to-RCU lock contention on systems with more than a few hundred CPUs. Although this patch creates a separate flavor of RCU for ease of review and patch maintenance, it is intended to replace classic RCU. This patch still handles stress better than does mainline, so I am still calling it ready for inclusion. This patch is against the -tip tree. Nevertheless, experience on an actual 1000+ CPU machine would still be most welcome. Most of the changes noted below were found while creating an rcutiny (which should permit ejecting the current rcuclassic) and while doing detailed line-by-line documentation. Updates from v9 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/2/334): o Fixes from remainder of line-by-line code walkthrough, including comment spelling, initialization, undesirable narrowing due to type conversion, removing redundant memory barriers, removing redundant local-variable initialization, and removing redundant local variables. I do not believe that any of these fixes address the CPU-hotplug issues that Andi Kleen was seeing, but please do give it a whirl in case the machine is smarter than I am. A writeup from the walkthrough may be found at the following URL, in case you are suffering from terminal insomnia or masochism: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/paulmck/tmp/rcutree-walkthrough.2008.12.16a.pdf o Made rcutree tracing use seq_file, as suggested some time ago by Lai Jiangshan. o Added a .csv variant of the rcudata debugfs trace file, to allow people having thousands of CPUs to drop the data into a spreadsheet. Tested with oocalc and gnumeric. Updated documentation to suit. Updates from v8 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/15/139): o Fix a theoretical race between grace-period initialization and force_quiescent_state() that could occur if more than three jiffies were required to carry out the grace-period initialization. Which it might, if you had enough CPUs. o Apply Ingo's printk-standardization patch. o Substitute local variables for repeated accesses to global variables. o Fix comment misspellings and redundant (but harmless) increments of ->n_rcu_pending (this latter after having explicitly added it). o Apply checkpatch fixes. Updates from v7 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/10/291): o Fixed a number of problems noted by Gautham Shenoy, including the cpu-stall-detection bug that he was having difficulty convincing me was real. ;-) o Changed cpu-stall detection to wait for ten seconds rather than three in order to reduce false positive, as suggested by Ingo Molnar. o Produced a design document (http://lwn.net/Articles/305782/). The act of writing this document uncovered a number of both theoretical and "here and now" bugs as noted below. o Fix dynticks_nesting accounting confusion, simplify WARN_ON() condition, fix kerneldoc comments, and add memory barriers in dynticks interface functions. o Add more data to tracing. o Remove unused "rcu_barrier" field from rcu_data structure. o Count calls to rcu_pending() from scheduling-clock interrupt to use as a surrogate timebase should jiffies stop counting. o Fix a theoretical race between force_quiescent_state() and grace-period initialization. Yes, initialization does have to go on for some jiffies for this race to occur, but given enough CPUs... Updates from v6 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/23/448): o Fix a number of checkpatch.pl complaints. o Apply review comments from Ingo Molnar and Lai Jiangshan on the stall-detection code. o Fix several bugs in !CONFIG_SMP builds. o Fix a misspelled config-parameter name so that RCU now announces at boot time if stall detection is configured. o Run tests on numerous combinations of configurations parameters, which after the fixes above, now build and run correctly. Updates from v5 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/15/92, bad subject line): o Fix a compiler error in the !CONFIG_FANOUT_EXACT case (blew a changeset some time ago, and finally got around to retesting this option). o Fix some tracing bugs in rcupreempt that caused incorrect totals to be printed. o I now test with a more brutal random-selection online/offline script (attached). Probably more brutal than it needs to be on the people reading it as well, but so it goes. o A number of optimizations and usability improvements: o Make rcu_pending() ignore the grace-period timeout when there is no grace period in progress. o Make force_quiescent_state() avoid going for a global lock in the case where there is no grace period in progress. o Rearrange struct fields to improve struct layout. o Make call_rcu() initiate a grace period if RCU was idle, rather than waiting for the next scheduling clock interrupt. o Invoke rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() only when idle, as suggested by Andi Kleen. I still don't completely trust this change, and might back it out. o Make CONFIG_RCU_TRACE be the single config variable manipulated for all forms of RCU, instead of the prior confusion. o Document tracing files and formats for both rcupreempt and rcutree. Updates from v4 for those missing v5 given its bad subject line: o Separated dynticks interface so that NMIs and irqs call separate functions, greatly simplifying it. In particular, this code no longer requires a proof of correctness. ;-) o Separated dynticks state out into its own per-CPU structure, avoiding the duplicated accounting. o The case where a dynticks-idle CPU runs an irq handler that invokes call_rcu() is now correctly handled, forcing that CPU out of dynticks-idle mode. o Review comments have been applied (thank you all!!!). For but one example, fixed the dynticks-ordering issue that Manfred pointed out, saving me much debugging. ;-) o Adjusted rcuclassic and rcupreempt to handle dynticks changes. Attached is an updated patch to Classic RCU that applies a hierarchy, greatly reducing the contention on the top-level lock for large machines. This passes 10-hour concurrent rcutorture and online-offline testing on 128-CPU ppc64 without dynticks enabled, and exposes some timekeeping bugs in presence of dynticks (exciting working on a system where "sleep 1" hangs until interrupted...), which were fixed in the 2.6.27 kernel. It is getting more reliable than mainline by some measures, so the next version will be against -tip for inclusion. See also Manfred Spraul's recent patches (or his earlier work from 2004 at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=108546384711797&w=2). We will converge onto a common patch in the fullness of time, but are currently exploring different regions of the design space. That said, I have already gratefully stolen quite a few of Manfred's ideas. This patch provides CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, which controls the bushiness of the RCU hierarchy. Defaults to 32 on 32-bit machines and 64 on 64-bit machines. If CONFIG_NR_CPUS is less than CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, there is no hierarchy. By default, the RCU initialization code will adjust CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT to balance the hierarchy, so strongly NUMA architectures may choose to set CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_EXACT to disable this balancing, allowing the hierarchy to be exactly aligned to the underlying hardware. Up to two levels of hierarchy are permitted (in addition to the root node), allowing up to 16,384 CPUs on 32-bit systems and up to 262,144 CPUs on 64-bit systems. I just know that I am going to regret saying this, but this seems more than sufficient for the foreseeable future. (Some architectures might wish to set CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=4, which would limit such architectures to 64 CPUs. If this becomes a real problem, additional levels can be added, but I doubt that it will make a significant difference on real hardware.) In the common case, a given CPU will manipulate its private rcu_data structure and the rcu_node structure that it shares with its immediate neighbors. This can reduce both lock and memory contention by multiple orders of magnitude, which should eliminate the need for the strange manipulations that are reported to be required when running Linux on very large systems. Some shortcomings: o More bugs will probably surface as a result of an ongoing line-by-line code inspection. Patches will be provided as required. o There are probably hangs, rcutorture failures, &c. Seems quite stable on a 128-CPU machine, but that is kind of small compared to 4096 CPUs. However, seems to do better than mainline.

rcu: "Tiny RCU", The Bloatwatch Edition This patch is a version of RCU designed for !SMP provided for a small-footprint RCU implementation. In particular, the implementation of synchronize_rcu() is extremely lightweight and high performance. It passes rcutorture testing in each of the four relevant configurations (combinations of NO_HZ and PREEMPT) on x86. This saves about 1K bytes compared to old Classic RCU (which is no longer in mainline), and more than three kilobytes compared to Hierarchical RCU (updated to 2.6.30): CONFIG_TREE_RCU: text data bss dec filename 183 4 0 187 kernel/rcupdate.o 2783 520 36 3339 kernel/rcutree.o 3526 Total (vs 4565 for v7) CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU: text data bss dec filename 263 4 0 267 kernel/rcupdate.o 4594 776 52 5422 kernel/rcutree.o 5689 Total (6155 for v7) CONFIG_TINY_RCU: text data bss dec filename 96 4 0 100 kernel/rcupdate.o 734 24 0 758 kernel/rcutiny.o 858 Total (vs 848 for v7) The above is for x86. Your mileage may vary on other platforms. Further compression is possible, but is being procrastinated. Changes from v7 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/9/388) o Apply Lai Jiangshan's review comments (aside from might_sleep() in synchronize_sched(), which is covered by SMP builds). o Fix up expedited primitives. Changes from v6 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/9/23/293). o Forward ported to put it into the 2.6.33 stream. o Added lockdep support. o Make lightweight rcu_barrier. Changes from v5 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/23/12). o Ported to latest pre-2.6.32 merge window kernel. - Renamed rcu_qsctr_inc() to rcu_sched_qs(). - Renamed rcu_bh_qsctr_inc() to rcu_bh_qs(). - Provided trivial rcu_cpu_notify(). - Provided trivial exit_rcu(). - Provided trivial rcu_needs_cpu(). - Fixed up the rcu_*_enter/exit() functions in linux/hardirq.h. o Removed the dependence on EMBEDDED, with a view to making TINY_RCU default for !SMP at some time in the future. o Added (trivial) support for expedited grace periods. Changes from v4 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/5/2/91) include: o Squeeze the size down a bit further by removing the ->completed field from struct rcu_ctrlblk. o This permits synchronize_rcu() to become the empty function. Previous concerns about rcutorture were unfounded, as rcutorture correctly handles a constant value from rcu_batches_completed() and rcu_batches_completed_bh(). Changes from v3 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/29/221) include: o Changed rcu_batches_completed(), rcu_batches_completed_bh() rcu_enter_nohz(), rcu_exit_nohz(), rcu_nmi_enter(), and rcu_nmi_exit(), to be static inlines, as suggested by David Howells. Doing this saves about 100 bytes from rcutiny.o. (The numbers between v3 and this v4 of the patch are not directly comparable, since they are against different versions of Linux.) Changes from v2 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/3/333) include: o Fix whitespace issues. o Change short-circuit "||" operator to instead be "+" in order to fix performance bug noted by "kraai" on LWN. (http://lwn.net/Articles/324348/) Changes from v1 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/13/440) include: o This version depends on EMBEDDED as well as !SMP, as suggested by Ingo. o Updated rcu_needs_cpu() to unconditionally return zero, permitting the CPU to enter dynticks-idle mode at any time. This works because callbacks can be invoked upon entry to dynticks-idle mode. o Paul is now OK with this being included, based on a poll at the Kernel Miniconf at linux.conf.au, where about ten people said that they cared about saving 900 bytes on single-CPU systems. o Applies to both mainline and tip/core/rcu.

#include <linux/rcutiny.h>
"Tree RCU": scalable classic RCU implementation This patch fixes a long-standing performance bug in classic RCU that results in massive internal-to-RCU lock contention on systems with more than a few hundred CPUs. Although this patch creates a separate flavor of RCU for ease of review and patch maintenance, it is intended to replace classic RCU. This patch still handles stress better than does mainline, so I am still calling it ready for inclusion. This patch is against the -tip tree. Nevertheless, experience on an actual 1000+ CPU machine would still be most welcome. Most of the changes noted below were found while creating an rcutiny (which should permit ejecting the current rcuclassic) and while doing detailed line-by-line documentation. Updates from v9 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/2/334): o Fixes from remainder of line-by-line code walkthrough, including comment spelling, initialization, undesirable narrowing due to type conversion, removing redundant memory barriers, removing redundant local-variable initialization, and removing redundant local variables. I do not believe that any of these fixes address the CPU-hotplug issues that Andi Kleen was seeing, but please do give it a whirl in case the machine is smarter than I am. A writeup from the walkthrough may be found at the following URL, in case you are suffering from terminal insomnia or masochism: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/paulmck/tmp/rcutree-walkthrough.2008.12.16a.pdf o Made rcutree tracing use seq_file, as suggested some time ago by Lai Jiangshan. o Added a .csv variant of the rcudata debugfs trace file, to allow people having thousands of CPUs to drop the data into a spreadsheet. Tested with oocalc and gnumeric. Updated documentation to suit. Updates from v8 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/15/139): o Fix a theoretical race between grace-period initialization and force_quiescent_state() that could occur if more than three jiffies were required to carry out the grace-period initialization. Which it might, if you had enough CPUs. o Apply Ingo's printk-standardization patch. o Substitute local variables for repeated accesses to global variables. o Fix comment misspellings and redundant (but harmless) increments of ->n_rcu_pending (this latter after having explicitly added it). o Apply checkpatch fixes. Updates from v7 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/10/291): o Fixed a number of problems noted by Gautham Shenoy, including the cpu-stall-detection bug that he was having difficulty convincing me was real. ;-) o Changed cpu-stall detection to wait for ten seconds rather than three in order to reduce false positive, as suggested by Ingo Molnar. o Produced a design document (http://lwn.net/Articles/305782/). The act of writing this document uncovered a number of both theoretical and "here and now" bugs as noted below. o Fix dynticks_nesting accounting confusion, simplify WARN_ON() condition, fix kerneldoc comments, and add memory barriers in dynticks interface functions. o Add more data to tracing. o Remove unused "rcu_barrier" field from rcu_data structure. o Count calls to rcu_pending() from scheduling-clock interrupt to use as a surrogate timebase should jiffies stop counting. o Fix a theoretical race between force_quiescent_state() and grace-period initialization. Yes, initialization does have to go on for some jiffies for this race to occur, but given enough CPUs... Updates from v6 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/23/448): o Fix a number of checkpatch.pl complaints. o Apply review comments from Ingo Molnar and Lai Jiangshan on the stall-detection code. o Fix several bugs in !CONFIG_SMP builds. o Fix a misspelled config-parameter name so that RCU now announces at boot time if stall detection is configured. o Run tests on numerous combinations of configurations parameters, which after the fixes above, now build and run correctly. Updates from v5 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/15/92, bad subject line): o Fix a compiler error in the !CONFIG_FANOUT_EXACT case (blew a changeset some time ago, and finally got around to retesting this option). o Fix some tracing bugs in rcupreempt that caused incorrect totals to be printed. o I now test with a more brutal random-selection online/offline script (attached). Probably more brutal than it needs to be on the people reading it as well, but so it goes. o A number of optimizations and usability improvements: o Make rcu_pending() ignore the grace-period timeout when there is no grace period in progress. o Make force_quiescent_state() avoid going for a global lock in the case where there is no grace period in progress. o Rearrange struct fields to improve struct layout. o Make call_rcu() initiate a grace period if RCU was idle, rather than waiting for the next scheduling clock interrupt. o Invoke rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() only when idle, as suggested by Andi Kleen. I still don't completely trust this change, and might back it out. o Make CONFIG_RCU_TRACE be the single config variable manipulated for all forms of RCU, instead of the prior confusion. o Document tracing files and formats for both rcupreempt and rcutree. Updates from v4 for those missing v5 given its bad subject line: o Separated dynticks interface so that NMIs and irqs call separate functions, greatly simplifying it. In particular, this code no longer requires a proof of correctness. ;-) o Separated dynticks state out into its own per-CPU structure, avoiding the duplicated accounting. o The case where a dynticks-idle CPU runs an irq handler that invokes call_rcu() is now correctly handled, forcing that CPU out of dynticks-idle mode. o Review comments have been applied (thank you all!!!). For but one example, fixed the dynticks-ordering issue that Manfred pointed out, saving me much debugging. ;-) o Adjusted rcuclassic and rcupreempt to handle dynticks changes. Attached is an updated patch to Classic RCU that applies a hierarchy, greatly reducing the contention on the top-level lock for large machines. This passes 10-hour concurrent rcutorture and online-offline testing on 128-CPU ppc64 without dynticks enabled, and exposes some timekeeping bugs in presence of dynticks (exciting working on a system where "sleep 1" hangs until interrupted...), which were fixed in the 2.6.27 kernel. It is getting more reliable than mainline by some measures, so the next version will be against -tip for inclusion. See also Manfred Spraul's recent patches (or his earlier work from 2004 at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=108546384711797&w=2). We will converge onto a common patch in the fullness of time, but are currently exploring different regions of the design space. That said, I have already gratefully stolen quite a few of Manfred's ideas. This patch provides CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, which controls the bushiness of the RCU hierarchy. Defaults to 32 on 32-bit machines and 64 on 64-bit machines. If CONFIG_NR_CPUS is less than CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, there is no hierarchy. By default, the RCU initialization code will adjust CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT to balance the hierarchy, so strongly NUMA architectures may choose to set CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_EXACT to disable this balancing, allowing the hierarchy to be exactly aligned to the underlying hardware. Up to two levels of hierarchy are permitted (in addition to the root node), allowing up to 16,384 CPUs on 32-bit systems and up to 262,144 CPUs on 64-bit systems. I just know that I am going to regret saying this, but this seems more than sufficient for the foreseeable future. (Some architectures might wish to set CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=4, which would limit such architectures to 64 CPUs. If this becomes a real problem, additional levels can be added, but I doubt that it will make a significant difference on real hardware.) In the common case, a given CPU will manipulate its private rcu_data structure and the rcu_node structure that it shares with its immediate neighbors. This can reduce both lock and memory contention by multiple orders of magnitude, which should eliminate the need for the strange manipulations that are reported to be required when running Linux on very large systems. Some shortcomings: o More bugs will probably surface as a result of an ongoing line-by-line code inspection. Patches will be provided as required. o There are probably hangs, rcutorture failures, &c. Seems quite stable on a 128-CPU machine, but that is kind of small compared to 4096 CPUs. However, seems to do better than mainline. Patches will be provided as required. o The memory footprint of this version is several KB larger than rcuclassic. A separate UP-only rcutiny patch will be provided, which will reduce the memory footprint significantly, even compared to the old rcuclassic. One such patch passes light testing, and has a memory footprint smaller even than rcuclassic. Initial reaction from various embedded guys was "it is not worth it", so am putting it aside.

tree/tiny rcu: Add debug RCU head objects Helps finding racy users of call_rcu(), which results in hangs because list entries are overwritten and/or skipped. Changelog since v4: - Bissectability is now OK - Now generate a WARN_ON_ONCE() for non-initialized rcu_head passed to call_rcu(). Statically initialized objects are detected with object_is_static(). - Rename rcu_head_init_on_stack to init_rcu_head_on_stack. - Remove init_rcu_head() completely. Changelog since v3: - Include comments from Lai Jiangshan This new patch version is based on the debugobjects with the newly introduced "active state" tracker. Non-initialized entries are all considered as "statically initialized". An activation fixup (triggered by call_rcu()) takes care of performing the debug object initialization without issuing any warning. Since we cannot increase the size of struct rcu_head, I don't see much room to put an identifier for statically initialized rcu_head structures. So for now, we have to live without "activation without explicit init" detection. But the main purpose of this debug option is to detect double-activations (double call_rcu() use of a rcu_head before the callback is executed), which is correctly addressed here. This also detects potential internal RCU callback corruption, which would cause the callbacks to be executed twice. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> CC: David S.

* If CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is selected, returns nonzero iff in an
* RCU-sched read-side critical section. In absence of
* CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC, this assumes we are in an RCU-sched read-side
* critical section unless it can prove otherwise. Note that disabling
* of preemption (including disabling irqs) counts as an RCU-sched
* read-side critical section. This is useful for debug checks in functions
* that required that they be called within an RCU-sched read-side
* critical section.
*
* Check debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() to prevent false positives during boot
* and while lockdep is disabled.
*
* Note that if the CPU is in the idle loop from an RCU point of
* view (ie: that we are in the section between rcu_idle_enter() and
* rcu_idle_exit()) then rcu_read_lock_held() returns false even if the CPU
* did an rcu_read_lock(). The reason for this is that RCU ignores CPUs
* that are in such a section, considering these as in extended quiescent
* state, so such a CPU is effectively never in an RCU read-side critical
* section regardless of what RCU primitives it invokes. This state of
* affairs is required --- we need to keep an RCU-free window in idle
* where the CPU may possibly enter into low power mode. This way we can
* notice an extended quiescent state to other CPUs that started a grace
* period. Otherwise we would delay any grace period as long as we run in
* the idle task.
*
* Similarly, we avoid claiming an SRCU read lock held if the current
* CPU is offline.

* Do an rcu_dereference(), but check that the conditions under which the

* An implicit check for being in an RCU read-side critical section

*
* For example:
*
* bar = rcu_dereference_check(foo->bar, lockdep_is_held(&foo->lock));
*
* could be used to indicate to lockdep that foo->bar may only be dereferenced
* if either rcu_read_lock() is held, or that the lock required to replace
* the bar struct at foo->bar is held.
*
* Note that the list of conditions may also include indications of when a lock
* need not be held, for example during initialisation or destruction of the
* target struct:
*
* bar = rcu_dereference_check(foo->bar, lockdep_is_held(&foo->lock) ||
* atomic_read(&foo->usage) == 0);
*
* Inserts memory barriers on architectures that require them
* (currently only the Alpha), prevents the compiler from refetching
* (and from merging fetches), and, more importantly, documents exactly
* which pointers are protected by RCU and checks that the pointer is
* annotated as __rcu.

* When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
* are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
* synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
* CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
* on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
* sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
* until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
*
* Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
* with new RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
* is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
* read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
* an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
* (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
* callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
* section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
* therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
* callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
* RCU callback is invoked.
*
* RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
* will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
* completes.
*
* You can avoid reading and understanding the next paragraph by
* following this rule: don't put anything in an rcu_read_lock() RCU
* read-side critical section that would block in a !PREEMPT kernel.
* But if you want the full story, read on!
*
* In non-preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_RCU and TINY_RCU),
* it is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section.
* In preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_PREEMPT_RCU) in CONFIG_PREEMPT
* kernel builds, RCU read-side critical sections may be preempted,
* but explicit blocking is illegal. Finally, in preemptible RCU
* implementations in real-time (with -rt patchset) kernel builds, RCU
* read-side critical sections may be preempted and they may also block, but
* only when acquiring spinlocks that are subject to priority inheritance.

* is responsible for deboosting, which it does via rt_mutex_unlock().
* Unfortunately, this function acquires the scheduler's runqueue and
* priority-inheritance spinlocks. This means that deadlock could result
* if the caller of rcu_read_unlock() already holds one of these locks or
* any lock that is ever acquired while holding them.
*
* That said, RCU readers are never priority boosted unless they were
* preempted. Therefore, one way to avoid deadlock is to make sure
* that preemption never happens within any RCU read-side critical
* section whose outermost rcu_read_unlock() is called with one of
* rt_mutex_unlock()'s locks held. Such preemption can be avoided in
* a number of ways, for example, by invoking preempt_disable() before
* critical section's outermost rcu_read_lock().
*
* Given that the set of locks acquired by rt_mutex_unlock() might change
* at any time, a somewhat more future-proofed approach is to make sure
* that that preemption never happens within any RCU read-side critical
* section whose outermost rcu_read_unlock() is called with irqs disabled.
* This approach relies on the fact that rt_mutex_unlock() currently only
* acquires irq-disabled locks.
*
* The second of these two approaches is best in most situations,
* however, the first approach can also be useful, at least to those
* developers willing to keep abreast of the set of locks acquired by
* rt_mutex_unlock().

rcu: introduce kfree_rcu() Many rcu callbacks functions just call kfree() on the base structure. These functions are trivial, but their size adds up, and furthermore when they are used in a kernel module, that module must invoke the high-latency rcu_barrier() function at module-unload time. The kfree_rcu() function introduced by this commit addresses this issue. Rather than encoding a function address in the embedded rcu_head structure, kfree_rcu() instead encodes the offset of the rcu_head structure within the base structure. Because the functions are not allowed in the low-order 4096 bytes of kernel virtual memory, offsets up to 4095 bytes can be accommodated. If the offset is larger than 4095 bytes, a compile-time error will be generated in __kfree_rcu(). If this error is triggered, you can either fall back to use of call_rcu() or rearrange the structure to position the rcu_head structure into the first 4096 bytes. Note that the allowable offset might decrease in the future, for example, to allow something like kmem_cache_free_rcu(). The new kfree_rcu() function can replace code as follows: call_rcu(&p->rcu, simple_kfree_callback); where "simple_kfree_callback()" might be defined as follows: void simple_kfree_callback(struct rcu_head *p) { struct foo *q = container_of(p, struct foo, rcu); kfree(q); } with the following: kfree_rcu(&p->rcu, rcu); Note that the "rcu" is the name of a field in the structure being freed. The reason for using this rather than passing in a pointer to the base structure is that the above approach allows better type checking.

This state machine is driven out of RCU's quiescent-state-forcing mechanism, which invokes rcu_sysidle_check_cpu() to collect per-CPU idle state and then rcu_sysidle_report() to drive the state machine. The full-system-idle state is sampled using rcu_sys_is_idle(), which also drives the state machine if RCU is idle (and does so by forcing RCU to become non-idle). This function returns true if all but the timekeeping CPU (tick_do_timer_cpu) are idle and have been idle long enough to avoid memory contention on the full_sysidle_state state variable. The rcu_sysidle_force_exit() may be called externally to reset the state machine back into non-idle state. For large systems the state machine is driven out of RCU's force-quiescent-state logic, which provides good scalability at the price of millisecond-scale latencies on the transition to full-system-idle state. This is not so good for battery-powered systems, which are usually small enough that they don't need to care about scalability, but which do care deeply about energy efficiency. Small systems therefore drive the state machine directly out of the idle-entry code.
