MAYDAY_INITIAL_TIMEOUT is defined as HZ / 100 and depending on
configuration may end up 0 or 1.  Even when it's 1, depending on when
the mayday timer is added in the current jiffy interval, it may expire
way before a jiffy has passed.

Make sure MAYDAY_INITIAL_TIMEOUT is at least two to guarantee that at
least a full jiffy has passed before calling rescuers.

After executing the matching works, a rescuer leaves the gcwq whether
there are more pending works or not.  This may decrease the

Currently, the lockdep annotation in flush_work() requires exclusive
access on the workqueue the target work is queued on and triggers
warning if a work is trying to flush another work on the same
workqueue; however, this is no longer true as workqueues can now
execute multiple works concurrently.

This patch adds lock_map_acquire_read() and make process_one_work()
hold read access to the workqueue while executing a work and
start_flush_work() check for write access if concurrnecy level is one
or the workqueue has a rescuer (as only one execution resource - the
rescuer - is guaranteed to be available under memory pressure), and
read access if higher.

This better represents what's going on and removes spurious lockdep
warnings which are triggered by fake dependency chain created through
flush_work().

Currently, destroy_workqueue() makes the workqueue deny all new
queueing by setting WQ_DYING and flushes the workqueue once before
proceeding with destruction; however, there are cases where work items
queue more related work items.  Currently, such users need to
explicitly flush the workqueue multiple times depending on the
possible depth of such chained queueing.

This patch updates the queueing path such that a work item can queue
further work items on the same workqueue even when WQ_DYING is set.
The flush on destruction is automatically retried until the workqueue
is empty.  This guarantees that the workqueue is empty on destruction
while allowing chained queueing.

The flush retry logic whines if it takes too many retries to drain the
workqueue.

Running the annotate branch profiler on three boxes, including my
main box that runs firefox, evolution, xchat, and is part of the distcc farm,
showed this with the likelys in the workqueue code:

 correct incorrect  %        Function                  File              Line
 ------- ---------  -        --------                  ----              ----

      96   996247  99 wq_worker_waking_up            workqueue.c          677

The likely()s in this case were assuming that WORKER_NOT_RUNNING will
most likely be false. But this is not the case. The reason is
(and shown by adding trace_printks and testing it) that most of the time
WORKER_PREP is set.

In worker_thread() we have:

	worker_clr_flags(worker, WORKER_PREP);

	[ do work stuff ]

	worker_set_flags(worker, WORKER_PREP, false);

(that 'false' means not to wake up an idle worker)

The wq_worker_sleeping() is called from schedule when a worker thread
is putting itself to sleep. Which happens most of the time outside
of that [ do work stuff ].

The wq_worker_waking_up is called by the wakeup worker code, which
is also callod outside that [ do work stuff ].

Thus, the likely and unlikely used by those two functions are actually
backwards.

Remove the annotation and let gcc figure it out.

In the MN10300 arch, we occasionally see an assertion being tripped in
alloc_cwqs() at the following line:

        /* just in case, make sure it's actually aligned */
  --->  BUG_ON(!IS_ALIGNED(wq->cpu_wq.v, align));
        return wq->cpu_wq.v ? 0 : -ENOMEM;

The values are:

        wa->cpu_wq.v => 0x902776e0
        align => 0x100

and align is calculated by the following:

        const size_t align = max_t(size_t, 1 << WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS,
                                   __alignof__(unsigned long long));

This is because the pointer in question (wq->cpu_wq.v) loses some of its
lower bits to control flags, and so the object it points to must be
sufficiently aligned to avoid the need to use those bits for pointing to
things.

Currently, 4 control bits and 4 colour bits are used in normal
circumstances, plus a debugging bit if debugging is set.  This requires
the cpu_workqueue_struct struct to be at least 256 bytes aligned (or 512
bytes aligned with debugging).

PERCPU() alignment on MN13000, however, is only 32 bytes as set in
vmlinux.lds.S.  So we set this to PAGE_SIZE (4096) to match most other
arches and stick a comment in alloc_cwqs() for anyone else who triggers
the assertion.

The policy function keep_working() didn't check GCWQ_HIGHPRI_PENDING
and could return %false with highpri work pending.  This could lead to
late execution of a highpri work which was delayed due to @max_active
throttling if other works are actively consuming CPU cycles.

For example, the following could happen.

1. Work W0 which burns CPU cycles.

2. Two works W1 and W2 are queued to a highpri wq w/ @max_active of 1.

3. W1 starts executing and W2 is put to delayed queue.  W0 and W1 are
   both runnable.

4. W1 finishes which puts W2 to pending queue but keep_working()
   incorrectly returns %false and the worker goes to sleep.

5. W0 finishes and W2 starts execution.

With this patch applied, W2 starts execution as soon as W1 finishes.

cwq->nr_active is used to keep track of how many work items are active
for the cpu workqueue, where 'active' is defined as either pending on
global worklist or executing.  This is used to implement the
max_active limit and workqueue freezing.  If a work item is queued
after nr_active has already reached max_active, the work item doesn't
increment nr_active and is put on the delayed queue and gets activated
later as previous active work items retire.

try_to_grab_pending() which is used in the cancellation path
unconditionally decremented nr_active whether the work item being
cancelled is currently active or delayed, so cancelling a delayed work
item makes nr_active underflow.  This breaks max_active enforcement
and triggers BUG_ON() in destroy_workqueue() later on.

This patch fixes this bug by adding a flag WORK_STRUCT_DELAYED, which
is set while a work item in on the delayed list and making
try_to_grab_pending() decrement nr_active iff the work item is
currently active.

The addition of the flag enlarges cwq alignment to 256 bytes which is
getting a bit too large.  It's scheduled to be reduced back to 128
bytes by merging WORK_STRUCT_PENDING and WORK_STRUCT_CWQ in the next
devel cycle.

Now that the worklist is global, having works pending after wq
destruction can easily lead to oops and destroy_workqueue() have
several BUG_ON()s to catch these cases.  Unfortunately, BUG_ON()
doesn't tell much about how the work became pending after the final
flush_workqueue().

This patch adds WQ_DYING which is set before the final flush begins.
If a work is requested to be queued on a dying workqueue,
WARN_ON_ONCE() is triggered and the request is ignored.  This clearly
indicates which caller is trying to queue a work on a dying workqueue
and keeps the system working in most cases.

Once a work starts execution, its data contains the cpu number it was
on instead of pointing to cwq.  This is added by commit 7a22ad75
(workqueue: carry cpu number in work data once execution starts) to
reliably determine the work was last on even if the workqueue itself
was destroyed inbetween.

Whether data points to a cwq or contains a cpu number was
distinguished by comparing the value against PAGE_OFFSET.  The
assumption was that a cpu number should be below PAGE_OFFSET while a
pointer to cwq should be above it.  However, on architectures which
use separate address spaces for user and kernel spaces, this doesn't
hold as PAGE_OFFSET is zero.

Fix it by using an explicit flag, WORK_STRUCT_CWQ, to mark what the
data field contains.  If the flag is set, it's pointing to a cwq;
otherwise, it contains a cpu number.

WQ_SINGLE_CPU combined with @max_active of 1 is used to achieve full
ordering among works queued to a workqueue.  The same can be achieved
using WQ_UNBOUND as unbound workqueues always use the gcwq for
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.  As @max_active is always one and benefits from cpu
locality isn't accessible anyway, serving them with unbound workqueues
should be fine.

Drop WQ_SINGLE_CPU support and use WQ_UNBOUND instead.  Note that most
single thread workqueue users will be converted to use multithread or
non-reentrant instead and only the ones which require strict ordering
will keep using WQ_UNBOUND + @max_active of 1.

  This gcwq is always online and disassociated.

* Workers are not bound to any CPU and not concurrency managed.  Works
  are dispatched to workers as soon as possible and the only applied
  limitation is @max_active.  IOW, all unbound workqeueues are
