Currently, when running from a git archive, the testid.txt file contains only the branch name, the output of "git status", and the SHA-1 of the current HEAD. This is useful, but does not uniquely identify the source code that was built. This commit therefore adds the output of "git diff HEAD", which means that if two testid.txt files compare equal, they correspond to exactly the same source code. Give or take the possibility of SHA-1 collisions, that is. ;-) Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This commit adds a writer_holdoff boot parameter to rcuperf, which is intended to be used to test Tree SRCU's auto-expediting. This boot parameter is in microseconds, and defaults to zero (that is, disabled). Set it to a bit larger than srcutree.exp_holdoff, keeping the nanosecond/microsecond conversion, to force Tree SRCU to auto-expedite more aggressively. This commit also adds documentation for this parameter, and fixes some alphabetization while in the neighborhood. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

There was a time when the expedited grace-period primitives (synchronize_rcu_expedited(), synchronize_rcu_bh_expedited(), and synchronize_sched_expedited()) used rather antisocial kernel facilities like try_stop_cpus(). However, they have since been housebroken to use only single-CPU IPIs, and typically cause less disturbance than a scheduling-clock interrupt. Furthermore, this disturbance can be eliminated entirely using NO_HZ_FULL on the one hand or the rcupdate.rcu_normal boot parameter on the other. This commit therefore removes checkpatch's complaints about use of the expedited RCU primitives. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This commit upgrades rcuperf so that it can do performance testing on asynchronous grace-period primitives such as call_srcu(). There is a new rcuperf.gp_async module parameter that specifies this new behavior, with the pre-existing rcuperf.gp_exp testing expedited grace periods such as synchronize_rcu_expedited, and with the default being to test synchronous non-expedited grace periods such as synchronize_rcu(). There is also a new rcuperf.gp_async_max module parameter that specifies the maximum number of outstanding callbacks per writer kthread, defaulting to 1,000. When this limit is exceeded, the writer thread invokes the appropriate flavor of rcu_barrier() to wait for callbacks to drain. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Current rcuperf startup checks to see if the user asked to measure only expedited grace periods, yet constrained all grace periods to be normal, or if the user asked to measure only normal grace periods, yet constrained all grace periods to be expedited. Useless tests of this sort are aborted. Unfortunately, making RCU work through the mid-boot dead zone [1] puts RCU into expedited-only mode during that zone. Which happens to also be the exact time that rcuperf carries out the aforementioned check. So if the user asks rcuperf to measure only normal grace periods (the default), rcuperf will now always complain and terminate the test. This commit therefore moves the checks to rcu_perf_cleanup(). This has the disadvantage of failing to abort useless tests, but avoids the need to create yet another kthread and the need to do fiddly checks involving the holdoff time. (Yes, another approach is to do the checks in a late-stage init function, but that would require some way to communicate badness to rcuperf's kthreads, and seems not worth the bother.)

Although preemptible RCU allows its read-side critical sections to be preempted, general blocking is forbidden. The reason for this is that excessive preemption times can be handled by CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y, but a voluntarily blocked task doesn't care how high you boost its priority. Because preemptible RCU is a global mechanism, one ill-behaved reader hurts everyone. Hence the prohibition against general blocking in RCU-preempt read-side critical sections. Preemption yes, blocking no. This commit enforces this prohibition. There is a special exception for the -rt patchset (which they kindly volunteered to implement): It is OK to block (as opposed to merely being preempted) within an RCU-preempt read-side critical section, but only if the blocking is subject to priority inheritance. This exception permits CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y to get -rt RCU readers out of trouble. Why doesn't this exception also apply to mainline's rt_mutex? Because of the possibility that someone does general blocking while holding an rt_mutex. Yes, the priority boosting will affect the rt_mutex, but it won't help with the task doing general blocking while holding that rt_mutex.

Earlier versions of Tree SRCU were subject to a counter overflow bug that could theoretically result in too-short grace periods. This commit eliminates this problem by adding an update-side memory barrier. The short explanation is that if the updater sums the unlock counts too late to see a given __srcu_read_unlock() increment, that CPU's next __srcu_read_lock() must see the new value of ->srcu_idx, thus incrementing the other bank of counters. This eliminates the possibility of destructive counter overflow as long as the srcu_read_lock() nesting level does not exceed floor(ULONG_MAX/NR_CPUS/2), which should be an eminently reasonable nesting limit, especially on 64-bit systems.

The rcutorture scripting handles the CONFIG_*_TORTURE_TEST Kconfig options specially, and therefore greps them out of the Kconfig-fragment files. Unfortunately, a poor choice of grep pattern means that the CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP, CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT, and CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT Kconfig options are also grepped out, preventing rcutorture from using them. This commit therefore fixes the offending grep pattern to focus only on the CONFIG_*_TORTURE_TEST Kconfig options. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently rcu_barrier() uses call_rcu() to enqueue new callbacks on each CPU with a non-empty callback list. This works, but means that rcu_barrier() forces grace periods that are not otherwise needed. The key point is that rcu_barrier() never needs to wait for a grace period, but instead only for all pre-existing callbacks to be invoked. This means that rcu_barrier()'s new callbacks should be placed in the callback-list segment containing the last pre-existing callback. This commit makes this change using the new rcu_segcblist_entrain() function. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

A robust combination of paranoia and cowardice has resulted in retaining Classic SRCU (CONFIG_CLASSIC_SRCU) as a backup for the shiny new Tiny and Tree SRCU implementations. If it is to be a viable backup, it of course needs to be tested. This commit therefore adds an rcutorture scenario named SRCU-C for Classic SRCU. This commit also adds this scenario to the set that are run by default. Once sufficient good experience has accumulated for Tiny and Tree SRCU, this test will be removed, along with the Classic SRCU implementation itself. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Kconfig "select" clauses can defeat Kconfig-fragment file attempts to clear a given Kconfig variable, and dependencies can defeat attempts to set a given Kconfig variable. Because "select" clauses and dependencies can be added at any time, there needs to be a way to verify that the Kconfig-fragment file's requests were honored. And there is, except that it is buggy.

This commit adds a test for a three-level srcu_node tree for Tree SRCU in the existing SRCU-P scenario. This requires enabling CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT, so the CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT=n scenario is now SRCU-N.

Linu Cherian reported a WARN in cleanup_srcu_struct() when shutting down a guest running iperf on a VFIO assigned device. This happens because irqfd_wakeup() calls srcu_read_lock(&kvm->irq_srcu) in interrupt context, while a worker thread does the same inside kvm_set_irq(). If the interrupt happens while the worker thread is executing __srcu_read_lock(), updates to the Classic SRCU ->lock_count[] field or the Tree SRCU ->srcu_lock_count[] field can be lost. The docs say you are not supposed to call srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock() from irq context, but KVM interrupt injection happens from (host) interrupt context and it would be nice if SRCU supported the use case. KVM is using SRCU here not really for the "sleepable" part, but rather due to its IPI-free fast detection of grace periods. It is therefore not desirable to switch back to RCU, which would effectively revert commit 719d93cd ("kvm/irqchip: Speed up KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING", 2014-01-16). However, the docs are overly conservative. You can have an SRCU instance only has users in irq context, and you can mix process and irq context as long as process context users disable interrupts. In addition, __srcu_read_unlock() actually uses this_cpu_dec() on both Tree SRCU and Classic SRCU. For those two implementations, only srcu_read_lock() is unsafe. When Classic SRCU's __srcu_read_unlock() was changed to use this_cpu_dec(), in commit 5a41344a ("srcu: Simplify __srcu_read_unlock() via this_cpu_dec()", 2012-11-29), __srcu_read_lock() did two increments. Therefore it kept __this_cpu_inc(), with preempt_disable/enable in the caller. Tree SRCU however only does one increment, so on most architectures it is more efficient for __srcu_read_lock() to use this_cpu_inc(), and any performance differences appear to be down in the noise.

Unlike Classic and Tree SRCU, Tiny SRCU does increments and decrements on a single variable. Therefore, as Peter Zijlstra pointed out, Tiny SRCU's implementation already supports mixed-context use of srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock(), at least as long as uses of srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock() in each handler are nested and paired properly. In other words, it is still illegal to (say) invoke srcu_read_lock() in an interrupt handler and to invoke the matching srcu_read_unlock() in a softirq handler. Therefore, the only change required for Tiny SRCU is to its comments.

This fixes a problem with reading files larger than 2GB from a UFS-2 file system: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195721 The incorrect UFS s_maxsize limit became a problem as of commit c2a9737f ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop in truncate_inode_pages_range()") which started using s_maxbytes to avoid a page index overflow in do_generic_file_read(). That caused files to be truncated on UFS-2 file systems because the default maximum file size is 2GB (MAX_NON_LFS) and UFS didn't update it. Here I simply increase the default to a common value used by other file systems.
