percpu_ref will be restructured so that percpu/atomic mode switching and reference killing are dedoupled. In preparation, do the following renames. * percpu_ref->confirm_kill -> percpu_ref->confirm_switch * __PERCPU_REF_DEAD -> __PERCPU_REF_ATOMIC * __percpu_ref_alive() -> __ref_is_percpu() This patch is pure rename and doesn't introduce any functional changes.

percpu_ref uses pcpu_ prefix for internal stuff and percpu_ for externally visible ones. This is the same convention used in the percpu allocator implementation. It works fine there but percpu_ref doesn't have too much internal-only stuff and scattered usages of pcpu_ prefix are confusing than helpful. This patch replaces all pcpu_ prefixes with percpu_. This is pure rename and there's no functional change. Note that PCPU_REF_DEAD is renamed to __PERCPU_REF_DEAD to signify that the flag is internal.

blk-mq uses percpu_ref for its usage counter which tracks the number of in-flight commands and used to synchronously drain the queue on freeze. percpu_ref shutdown takes measureable wallclock time as it involves a sched RCU grace period. This means that draining a blk-mq takes measureable wallclock time. One would think that this shouldn't matter as queue shutdown should be a rare event which takes place asynchronously w.r.t. userland. Unfortunately, SCSI probing involves synchronously setting up and then tearing down a lot of request_queues back-to-back for non-existent LUNs. This means that SCSI probing may take more than ten seconds when scsi-mq is used. This will be properly fixed by implementing a mechanism to keep q->mq_usage_counter in atomic mode till genhd registration; however, that involves rather big updates to percpu_ref which is difficult to apply late in the devel cycle (v3.17-rc6 at the moment). As a stop-gap measure till the proper fix can be implemented in the next cycle, this patch introduces __percpu_ref_kill_expedited() and makes blk_mq_freeze_queue() use it. This is heavy-handed but should work for testing the experimental SCSI blk-mq implementation.

percpu_ref is currently based on ints and the number of refs it can cover is (1 << 31). This makes it impossible to use a percpu_ref to count memory objects or pages on 64bit machines as it may overflow. This forces those users to somehow aggregate the references before contributing to the percpu_ref which is often cumbersome and sometimes challenging to get the same level of performance as using the percpu_ref directly. While using ints for the percpu counters makes them pack tighter on 64bit machines, the possible gain from using ints instead of longs is extremely small compared to the overall gain from per-cpu operation. This patch makes percpu_ref based on longs so that it can be used to directly count memory objects or pages.

Now that explicit invocation of percpu_ref_exit() is necessary to free the percpu counter, we can implement percpu_ref_reinit() which reinitializes a released percpu_ref. This can be used implement scalable gating switch which can be drained and then re-opened without worrying about memory allocation failures. percpu_ref_is_zero() is added to be used in a sanity check in percpu_ref_exit(). As this function will be useful for other purposes too, make it a public interface. v2: Use smp_read_barrier_depends() instead of smp_load_acquire(). We only need data dep barrier and smp_load_acquire() is stronger and heavier on some archs. Spotted by Lai Jiangshan.

Currently, a percpu_ref undoes percpu_ref_init() automatically by freeing the allocated percpu area when the percpu_ref is killed. While seemingly convenient, this has the following niggles. * It's impossible to re-init a released reference counter without going through re-allocation. * In the similar vein, it's impossible to initialize a percpu_ref count with static percpu variables. * We need and have an explicit destructor anyway for failure paths - percpu_ref_cancel_init(). This patch removes the automatic percpu counter freeing in percpu_ref_kill_rcu() and repurposes percpu_ref_cancel_init() into a generic destructor now named percpu_ref_exit(). percpu_ref_destroy() is considered but it gets confusing with percpu_ref_kill() while "exit" clearly indicates that it's the counterpart of percpu_ref_init(). All percpu_ref_cancel_init() users are updated to invoke percpu_ref_exit() instead and explicit percpu_ref_exit() calls are added to the destruction path of all percpu_ref users.

percpu_ref->pcpu_count is a percpu pointer with a status flag in its lowest bit. As such, it always goes through arithmetic operations which is very cumbersome to do on a pointer. It has to be first casted to unsigned long and then back. Let's just make the field unsigned long so that we can skip the first casts. While at it, rename it to pcpu_counter_ptr to clarify that it's a pointer value.

* All four percpu_ref_*() operations implemented in the header file perform the same operation to determine whether the percpu_ref is alive and extract the percpu pointer. Factor out the common logic into __pcpu_ref_alive(). This doesn't change the generated code. * There are a couple places in percpu-refcount.c which masks out PCPU_REF_DEAD to obtain the percpu pointer. Factor it out into pcpu_count_ptr(). * The above changes make the WARN_ON_ONCE() conditional at the top of percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() the only user of REF_STATUS().

percpu-refcount currently reserves two lowest bits of its percpu pointer to indicate its state; however, only one bit is used for PCPU_REF_DEAD. Simplify it by removing PCPU_STATUS_BITS/MASK and testing PCPU_REF_DEAD directly. This also allows the compiler to choose a more efficient instruction depending on the architecture.

AIO had a missing get, which led to an ioctx leak - after percpu_ref_kill() the ref was 0 so percpu_ref_put() never saw it hit 0. This wasn't noticed at the time because it all happened completely silently, this adds a WARN() which would've caught the aio bug. tj: Used WARN_ONCE() instead of WARN().

percpu-refcount was incorrectly using preempt_disable/enable() for RCU critical sections against call_rcu(). 6a24474d ("percpu-refcount: consistently use plain (non-sched) RCU") fixed it by converting the preepmtion operations with rcu_read_[un]lock() citing that there isn't any advantage in using sched-RCU over using the usual one; however, rcu_read_[un]lock() for the preemptible RCU implementation - CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, chosen when CONFIG_PREEMPT - are slightly more expensive than preempt_disable/enable(). In a contrived microbench which repeats the followings, - percpu_ref_get() - copy 32 bytes of data into percpu buffer - percpu_put_get() - copy 32 bytes of data into percpu buffer rcu_read_[un]lock() used in percpu_ref_get/put() makes it go slower by about 15% when compared to using sched-RCU. As the RCU critical sections are extremely short, using sched-RCU shouldn't have any latency implications. Convert to RCU-sched.

Implement percpu_tryget() which stops giving out references once the percpu_ref is visible as killed. Because the refcnt is per-cpu, different CPUs will start to see a refcnt as killed at different points in time and tryget() may continue to succeed on subset of cpus for a while after percpu_ref_kill() returns. For use cases where it's necessary to know when all CPUs start to see the refcnt as dead, percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() is added. The new function takes an extra argument @confirm_kill which is invoked when the refcnt is guaranteed to be viewed as killed on all CPUs. While this isn't the prettiest interface, it doesn't force synchronous wait and is much safer than requiring the caller to do its own call_rcu(). v2: Patch description rephrased to emphasize that tryget() may continue to succeed on some CPUs after kill() returns as suggested by Kent. v3: Function comment in percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() updated warning people to not depend on the implied RCU grace period from the confirm callback as it's an implementation detail.

Normally, percpu_ref_init() initializes and percpu_ref_kill() initiates destruction which completes asynchronously. The asynchronous destruction can be problematic in init failure path where the caller wants to destroy half-constructed object - distinguishing half-constructed objects from the usual release method can be painful for complex objects. This patch implements percpu_ref_cancel_init() which synchronously destroys the percpu_ref without invoking release. To avoid unintentional misuses, the function requires the ref to have finished percpu_ref_init() but never used and triggers WARN otherwise. v2: Explain the weird name and usage restriction in the function comment.

This implements a refcount with similar semantics to atomic_get()/atomic_dec_and_test() - but percpu. It also implements two stage shutdown, as we need it to tear down the percpu counts. Before dropping the initial refcount, you must call percpu_ref_kill(); this puts the refcount in "shutting down mode" and switches back to a single atomic refcount with the appropriate barriers (synchronize_rcu()). It's also legal to call percpu_ref_kill() multiple times - it only returns true once, so callers don't have to reimplement shutdown synchronization.
