Although expedited grace periods can be quite useful, and although their OS jitter has been greatly reduced, they can still pose problems for extreme real-time workloads. This commit therefore adds a rcu_normal kernel boot parameter (which can also be manipulated via sysfs) to suppress expedited grace periods, that is, to treat requests for expedited grace periods as if they were requests for normal grace periods. If both rcu_expedited and rcu_normal are specified, rcu_normal wins. This means that if you are relying on expedited grace periods to speed up boot, you will want to specify rcu_expedited on the kernel command line, and then specify rcu_normal via sysfs once boot completes.

The rule is that all acquisitions of the rcu_node structure's ->lock must provide transitivity: The lock is not acquired that frequently, and sorting out exactly which required it and which did not would be a maintenance nightmare. This commit therefore supplies the needed transitivity to the remaining ->lock acquisitions. Reported-by: NPeter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Providing RCU's memory-ordering guarantees requires that the rcu_node tree's locking provide transitive memory ordering, which the Linux kernel's spinlocks currently do not provide unless smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() is used. Having a separate smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() after each and every lock acquisition is error-prone, hard to read, and a bit annoying, so this commit provides wrapper functions that pull in the smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() invocations.

This commit makes the RCU CPU stall warning message print online/offline indications immediately after the CPU number. A "O" indicates global offline, a "." global online, and a "o" indicates RCU believes that the CPU is offline for the current grace period and "." otherwise, and an "N" indicates that RCU believes that the CPU will be offline for the next grace period, and "." otherwise, all right after the CPU number.

This commit converts the rcu_data structure's ->cpu_no_qs field to a union. The bytewise side of this union allows individual access to indications as to whether this CPU needs to find a quiescent state for a normal (.norm) and/or expedited (.exp) grace period. The setwise side of the union allows testing whether or not a quiescent state is needed at all, for either type of grace period. For now, only .norm is used.

The current preemptible-RCU expedited grace-period algorithm invokes synchronize_sched_expedited() to enqueue all tasks currently running in a preemptible-RCU read-side critical section, then waits for all the ->blkd_tasks lists to drain. This works, but results in both an IPI and a double context switch even on CPUs that do not happen to be running in a preemptible RCU read-side critical section. This commit implements a new algorithm that causes less OS jitter. This new algorithm IPIs all online CPUs that are not idle (from an RCU perspective), but refrains from self-IPIs. If a CPU receiving this IPI is not in a preemptible RCU read-side critical section (or is just now exiting one), it pushes quiescence up the rcu_node tree, otherwise, it sets a flag that will be handled by the upcoming outermost rcu_read_unlock(), which will then push quiescence up the tree. The expedited grace period must of course wait on any pre-existing blocked readers, and newly blocked readers must be queued carefully based on the state of both the normal and the expedited grace periods. This new queueing approach also avoids the need to update boost state, courtesy of the fact that blocked tasks are no longer ever migrated to the root rcu_node structure. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

RCU's rcu_oom_notify() disables CPU hotplug in order to stabilize the list of online CPUs, which it traverses. However, this is completely pointless because smp_call_function_single() will quietly fail if invoked on an offline CPU. Because the count of requests is incremented in the rcu_oom_notify_cpu() function that is remotely invoked, everything works nicely even in the face of concurrent CPU-hotplug operations. Furthermore, in recent kernels, invoking get_online_cpus() from an OOM notifier can result in deadlock. This commit therefore removes the call to get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus() from rcu_oom_notify().

One of the requirements on RCU grace periods is that if there is a causal chain of operations that starts after one grace period and ends before another grace period, then the two grace periods must be serialized. There has been (and might still be) code that relies on this, for example, certain types of reference-counting code that does a call_rcu() within an RCU callback function. This requirement is why there is an smp_mb() at the end of both synchronize_sched_expedited() and synchronize_rcu_expedited(). However, this is the only smp_mb() in these functions, so it would be nicer to consolidate it into rcu_exp_gp_seq_end(). This commit does just that. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Eric reported that the timer_migration sysctl is not really nice performance wise as it needs to check at every timer insertion whether the feature is enabled or not. Further the check does not live in the timer code, so we have an extra function call which checks an extra cache line to figure out that it is disabled. We can do better and store that information in the per cpu (hr)timer bases. I pondered to use a static key, but that's a nightmare to update from the nohz code and the timer base cache line is hot anyway when we select a timer base. The old logic enabled the timer migration unconditionally if CONFIG_NO_HZ was set even if nohz was disabled on the kernel command line. With this modification, we start off with migration disabled. The user visible sysctl is still set to enabled. If the kernel switches to NOHZ migration is enabled, if the user did not disable it via the sysctl prior to the switch. If nohz=off is on the kernel command line, migration stays disabled no matter what.

Races between CPU hotplug and grace periods can be difficult to resolve, so the ->onoff_mutex is used to exclude the two events. Unfortunately, this means that it is impossible for an outgoing CPU to perform the last bits of its offlining from its last pass through the idle loop, because sleeplocks cannot be acquired in that context. This commit avoids these problems by buffering online and offline events in a new ->qsmaskinitnext field in the leaf rcu_node structures. When a grace period starts, the events accumulated in this mask are applied to the ->qsmaskinit field, and, if needed, up the rcu_node tree. The special case of all CPUs corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node structure being offline while there are still elements in that structure's ->blkd_tasks list is handled using a new ->wait_blkd_tasks field. In this case, propagating the offline bits up the tree is deferred until the beginning of the grace period after all of the tasks have exited their RCU read-side critical sections and removed themselves from the list, at which point the ->wait_blkd_tasks flag is cleared. If one of that leaf rcu_node structure's CPUs comes back online before the list empties, then the ->wait_blkd_tasks flag is simply cleared. This of course means that RCU's notion of which CPUs are offline can be out of date. This is OK because RCU need only wait on CPUs that were online at the time that the grace period started. In addition, RCU's force-quiescent-state actions will handle the case where a CPU goes offline after the grace period starts. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The rcu_report_unblock_qs_rnp() function is invoked when the last task blocking the current grace period exits its outermost RCU read-side critical section. Previously, this was called only from rcu_read_unlock_special(), and was therefore defined only when CONFIG_RCU_PREEMPT=y. However, this function will be invoked even when CONFIG_RCU_PREEMPT=n once CPU-hotplug operations are processed only at the beginnings of RCU grace periods. The reason for this change is that the last task on a given leaf rcu_node structure's ->blkd_tasks list might well exit its RCU read-side critical section between the time that recent CPU-hotplug operations were applied and when the new grace period was initialized. This situation could result in RCU waiting forever on that leaf rcu_node structure, because if all that structure's CPUs were already offline, there would be no quiescent-state events to drive that structure's part of the grace period. This commit therefore moves rcu_report_unblock_qs_rnp() to common code that is built unconditionally so that the quiescent-state-forcing code can clean up after this situation, avoiding the grace-period stall.
