      Uwe Kleine-König 提交于
      cpu partial pages are used to avoid contention which does not exist in
      the UP case. So let SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL depend on SMP.

      context_tracking: Remove full dynticks' hacky dependency on wide context tracking · d84d27a4
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Now that the full dynticks subsystem only enables the context tracking
      on full dynticks CPUs, lets remove the dependency on CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE
      
      This dependency was a hack to enable the context tracking widely for the
      full dynticks susbsystem until the latter becomes able to enable it in a
      more CPU-finegrained fashion.
      
      Now CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE only stands for testing on archs that
      work on support for the context tracking while full dynticks can't be
      used yet due to unmet dependencies. It simulates a system where all CPUs
      are full dynticks so that RCU user extended quiescent states and dynticks
      cputime accounting can be tested on the given arch.

      build some drivers only when compile-testing · 4bb16672
      Jiri Slaby 提交于
      Some drivers can be built on more platforms than they run on. This is
      a burden for users and distributors who package a kernel. They have to
      manually deselect some (for them useless) drivers when updating their
      configs via oldconfig. And yet, sometimes it is even impossible to
      disable the drivers without patching the kernel.
      
      Introduce a new config option COMPILE_TEST and make all those drivers
      to depend on the platform they run on, or on the COMPILE_TEST option.
      Now, when users/distributors choose COMPILE_TEST=n they will not have
      the drivers in their allmodconfig setups, but developers still can
      compile-test them with COMPILE_TEST=y.
      
      Now the drivers where we use this new option:
      * PTP_1588_CLOCK_PCH: The PCH EG20T is only compatible with Intel Atom
        processors so it should depend on x86.
      * FB_GEODE: Geode is 32-bit only so only enable it for X86_32.
      * USB_CHIPIDEA_IMX: The OF_DEVICE dependency will be met on powerpc
        systems -- which do not actually support the hardware via that
        method.
      * INTEL_MID_PTI: It is specific to the Penwell type of Intel Atom
        device.
      
      [v2]
      * remove EXPERT dependency
      
      [gregkh - remove chipidea portion, as it's incorrect, and also doesn't
       apply to my driver-core tree]

      rcu: Remove TINY_PREEMPT_RCU · 127781d1
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      TINY_PREEMPT_RCU adds significant code and complexity, but does not
      offer commensurate benefits.  People currently using TINY_PREEMPT_RCU
      can get much better memory footprint with TINY_RCU, or, if they really
      need preemptible RCU, they can use TREE_PREEMPT_RCU with a relatively
      minor degradation in memory footprint.  Please note that this move
      has been widely publicized on LKML (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/12/545)
      and on LWN (http://lwn.net/Articles/541037/).
      
      This commit therefore removes TINY_PREEMPT_RCU.

      Notice the above call chain.
      
      rcu_start_future_gp() is called with the rnp->lock held. Then it calls
      rcu_start_gp_advance, which does a wakeup.
      
      You can't do wakeups while holding the rnp->lock, as that would mean
      that you could not do a rcu_read_unlock() while holding the rq lock, or
      any lock that was taken while holding the rq lock. This is because...
      (See below).

      Notice the above trace.
      
      perf took its own ctx->lock, which can be taken while holding the rq
      lock. While holding this lock, it did a rcu_read_unlock(). The
      perf_lock_task_context() basically looks like:
      
      rcu_read_lock();
      raw_spin_lock(ctx->lock);
      rcu_read_unlock();
      
      Now, what looks to have happened, is that we scheduled after taking that
      first rcu_read_lock() but before taking the spin lock. When we scheduled
      back in and took the ctx->lock, the following rcu_read_unlock()
      triggered the "special" code.
      
      The rcu_read_unlock_special() takes the rnp->lock, which gives us a
      possible deadlock scenario.

      rcu: Fix full dynticks' dependency on wide RCU nocb mode · 73c30828
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Commit 0637e029
      ("nohz: Select wide RCU nocb for full dynticks") intended
      to force CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL=y when full dynticks is
      enabled.
      
      However this option is part of a choice menu and Kconfig's
      "select" instruction has no effect on such targets.
      
      Fix this by using reverse dependencies on the targets we
      don't want instead.

      init/Kconfig: re-order CONFIG_EXPERT options to fix menuconfig display · 657a5209
      Mike Frysinger 提交于
      The kconfig language requires that dependent options all follow the
      menuconfig symbol in order to be collapsed below it.  Recently some hidden
      options were added below the EXPERT menuconfig, but did not depend on
      EXPERT (because hidden options can't).  This broke the display.  So
      re-order all these options, and while we're here stick the PCI quirks
      under the EXPERT menu (since it isn't sitting with any related options).
      
      Before this commit, we get:
      	[*] Configure standard kernel features (expert users)  --->
      	[ ] Sysctl syscall support
      	[*] Load all symbols for debugging/ksymoops
      	...
      	[ ] Embedded system
      
      Now we get the older (and correct) behavior:
      	[*] Configure standard kernel features (expert users)  --->
      	[ ] Embedded system
      And if you go into the expert menu you get the expert options:
      	[ ] Sysctl syscall support
      	[*] Load all symbols for debugging/ksymoops
      	...

      nohz: Select VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN from full dynticks config · c58b0df1
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Turn the full dynticks passive dependency on VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN
      to an active one.
      
      The full dynticks Kconfig is currently hidden behind the full dynticks
      cputime accounting, which is an awkward and counter-intuitive layout:
      the user first has to select the dynticks cputime accounting in order
      to make the full dynticks feature to be visible.
      
      We definetly want it the other way around. The usual way to perform
      this kind of active dependency is use "select" on the depended target.
      Now we can't use the Kconfig "select" instruction when the target is
      a "choice".
      
      So this patch inspires on how the RCU subsystem Kconfig interact
      with its dependencies on SMP and PREEMPT: we make sure that cputime
      accounting can't propose another option than VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN
      when NO_HZ_FULL is selected by using the right "depends on" instruction
      for each cputime accounting choices.
      
      v2: Keep full dynticks cputime accounting available even without
      full dynticks, as per Paul McKenney's suggestion.

      nohz: Rename CONFIG_NO_HZ to CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON · 3451d024
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout
      into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick
      any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick,
      idle dynticks, full dynticks.
      
      As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions
      need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order
      to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure.
      
      It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to
      that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code
      and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now.
      So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and
      CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ.
      
      On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if
      CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to
      enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default.
      
      But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into
      a circular dependency:
      
      1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select
         CONFIG_NO_HZ
      2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE
      
      We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it
      may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour.
      
      So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option
      which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks
      (that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code)
      and select it from their referring Kconfig.
      
      Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ
      to it for backward compatibility.

      rcu: Remove restrictions on no-CBs CPUs · 34ed6246
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      Currently, CPU 0 is constrained to not be a no-CBs CPU, and furthermore
      at least one no-CBs CPU must remain online at any given time.  These
      restrictions are problematic in some situations, such as cases where
      all CPUs must run a real-time workload that needs to be insulated from
      OS jitter and latencies due to RCU callback invocation.  This commit
      therefore provides no-CBs CPUs a (very crude and energy-inefficient)
      way to start and to wait for grace periods independently of the normal
      RCU callback mechanisms.  This approach allows any or all of the CPUs to
      be designated as no-CBs CPUs, and allows any proper subset of the CPUs
      (whether no-CBs CPUs or not) to be offlined.
      
      This commit also provides a fix for a locking bug spotted by Xie
      ChanglongX <changlongx.xie@intel.com>.

      context_tracking: Enable probes by default for selftesting · 8b438766
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Until we provide the nohz_mask boot parameter, keeping
      the context tracking probes disabled by default is pointless
      since what we want is to runtime test this code anyway.
      
      It's furthermore confusing for the users which don't expect
      the probes to be off when they select RCU user mode or full
      dynticks cputime accounting.
      
      Let's enable these probes selftests by default for now.
