When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the
next wakeup time based on the timer wheels.  Only later, when actually
entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked.  In some
cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up.
But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been
computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup
time to be recomputed.  This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have
no effect.

This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake
up the CPU soon enough.  However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU
might stay asleep for a considerable length of time.  If that CPU has
a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might
run very slowly or (in theory) even hang.

This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU
to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account
when programming the CPU's wakeup time.  An alternative approach is
for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers,
but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently
and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly
what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

The current RCU_FAST_NO_HZ assumes that timers do not migrate unless a
CPU goes offline, in which case it assumes that the CPU will have to come
out of dyntick-idle mode (cancelling the timer) in order to go offline.
This is important because when RCU_FAST_NO_HZ permits a CPU to enter
dyntick-idle mode despite having RCU callbacks pending, it posts a timer
on that CPU to force a wakeup on that CPU.  This wakeup ensures that the
CPU will eventually handle the end of the grace period, including invoking
its RCU callbacks.

However, Pascal Chapperon's test setup shows that the timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() really does get invoked in some cases.  This is
problematic because this can cause the CPU that entered dyntick-idle
mode despite still having RCU callbacks pending to remain in
dyntick-idle mode indefinitely, which means that its RCU callbacks might
never be invoked.  This situation can result in grace-period delays or
even system hangs, which matches Pascal's observations of slow boot-up
and shutdown (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/5/142).  See also the bugzilla:

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806548

This commit therefore causes the "should never be invoked" timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() to use smp_call_function_single() to wake up
the CPU for which the timer was intended, allowing that CPU to invoke
its RCU callbacks in a timely manner.

When running preemptible RCU, if a task exits in an RCU read-side
critical section having blocked within that same RCU read-side critical
section, the task must be removed from the list of tasks blocking a
grace period (perhaps the current grace period, perhaps the next grace
period, depending on timing).  The exit() path invokes exit_rcu() to
do this cleanup.

However, the current implementation of exit_rcu() needlessly does the
cleanup even if the task did not block within the current RCU read-side
critical section, which wastes time and needlessly increases the size
of the state space.  Fix this by only doing the cleanup if the current
task is actually on the list of tasks blocking some grace period.

While we are at it, consolidate the two identical exit_rcu() functions

Timers are subject to migration, which can lead to the following
system-hang scenario when CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=y:

1.	CPU 0 executes synchronize_rcu(), which posts an RCU callback.

2.	CPU 0 then goes idle.  It cannot immediately invoke the callback,
	but there is nothing RCU needs from ti, so it enters dyntick-idle
	mode after posting a timer.

3.	The timer gets migrated to CPU 1.

4.	CPU 0 never wakes up, so the synchronize_rcu() never returns, so
	the system hangs.

This commit fixes this problem by using mod_timer_pinned(), as suggested
by Peter Zijlstra, to ensure that the timer is actually posted on the

RCU_FAST_NO_HZ uses a timer to limit the time that a CPU with callbacks
can remain in dyntick-idle mode.  This timer is cancelled when the CPU
exits idle, and therefore should never fire.  However, if the timer
were migrated to some other CPU for whatever reason (1) the timer could
actually fire and (2) firing on some other CPU would fail to wake up the
CPU with callbacks, possibly resulting in sluggishness or a system hang.

Both Steven Rostedt's new idle-capable trace macros and the RCU_NONIDLE()
macro can cause RCU to momentarily pause out of idle without the rest
of the system being involved.  This can cause rcu_prepare_for_idle()
to run through its state machine too quickly, which can in turn result
in needless scheduling-clock interrupts.

This commit therefore adds code to enable rcu_prepare_for_idle() to
distinguish between an initial entry to idle on the one hand (which needs
to advance the rcu_prepare_for_idle() state machine) and an idle reentry
due to idle-capable trace macros and RCU_NONIDLE() on the other hand
(which should avoid advancing the rcu_prepare_for_idle() state machine).
Additional state is maintained to allow the timer to be correctly reposted
when returning after a momentary pause out of idle, and even more state
is maintained to detect when new non-lazy callbacks have been enqueued
(which may require re-evaluation of the approach to idleness).

If a softirq is pending, the current CPU has RCU callbacks pending,
and RCU does not immediately need anything from this CPU, then the
current code resets the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ state machine.  This means that
upon exit from the subsequent softirq handler, RCU_FAST_NO_HZ will
try really hard to force RCU into dyntick-idle mode.  And if the same
conditions hold after a few tries (determined by RCU_IDLE_OPT_FLUSHES),
the same situation can repeat, possibly endlessly.  This scenario is
not particularly good for battery lifetime.

This commit therefore suppresses the early exit from the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ
state machine in the case where there is a softirq pending.  This change
forces the state machine to retain its memory, and to enter holdoff if
this condition persists.

Because newly offlined CPUs continue executing after completing the
CPU_DYING notifiers, they legitimately enter the scheduler and use
RCU while appearing to be offline.  This calls for a more sophisticated
approach as follows:

1.	RCU marks the CPU online during the CPU_UP_PREPARE phase.

2.	RCU marks the CPU offline during the CPU_DEAD phase.

3.	Diagnostics regarding use of read-side RCU by offline CPUs use
	RCU's accounting rather than the cpu_online_map.  (Note that
	__call_rcu() still uses cpu_online_map to detect illegal
	invocations within CPU_DYING notifiers.)

4.	Offline CPUs are prevented from hanging the system by
	force_quiescent_state(), which pays attention to cpu_online_map.
	Some additional work (in a later commit) will be needed to
	guarantee that force_quiescent_state() waits a full jiffy before
	assuming that a CPU is offline, for example, when called from
	idle entry.  (This commit also makes the one-jiffy wait
	explicit, since the old-style implicit wait can now be defeated

If there are other CPUs active at a given point in time, then there is a

Beyond this limit, attempting to force the RCU grace period forward will

Therefore, this commit takes an adaptive approach to RCU_FAST_NO_HZ
preparations for idle.  It pushes the RCU core state machine for

additional cycles, but only as long as the RCU core has work for this

The rcu_do_batch() function that invokes callbacks for TREE_RCU and
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU normally throttles callback invocation to avoid degrading
scheduling latency.  However, as long as the CPU would otherwise be idle,
there is no downside to continuing to invoke any callbacks that have passed

timely manner has the benefit of increasing the probability that the

Therefore, this commit allows callback invocation to continue beyond the
preset limit as long as the scheduler does not have some other task to

The current implementation of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ prevents CPUs from entering
dyntick-idle state if they have RCU callbacks pending.  Unfortunately,
this has the side-effect of often preventing them from entering this
state, especially if at least one other CPU is not in dyntick-idle state.
However, the resulting per-tick wakeup is wasteful in many cases: if the
CPU has already fully responded to the current RCU grace period, there
will be nothing for it to do until this grace period ends, which will
frequently take several jiffies.

This commit therefore permits a CPU that has done everything that the
current grace period has asked of it (rcu_pending() == 0) even if it
still as RCU callbacks pending.  However, such a CPU posts a timer to
wake it up several jiffies later (6 jiffies, based on experience with
grace-period lengths).  This wakeup is required to handle situations
that can result in all CPUs being in dyntick-idle mode, thus failing
to ever complete the current grace period.  If a CPU wakes up before
the timer goes off, then it cancels that timer, thus avoiding spurious
wakeups.

With the new implementation of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ, it was possible to hang

	RCU needs nothing more from it, while still having at least
	on RCU callback pending.

o	CPU 1 goes idle with no callbacks.

Both CPUs can then stay in dyntick-idle mode indefinitely, preventing
the RCU grace period from ever completing, possibly hanging the system.

Therefore, this commit clears the per-CPU rcu_awake_at_gp_end flag

The earlier version would attempt to push callbacks through five times

needs to for the current RCU grace periods, it will make no further
progress on the callbacks no matter how many times it loops through
