The RCU implementations, including SRCU, are designed to be used in a
lock-like fashion, so that the read-side lock and unlock primitives must
execute in the same context for any given read-side critical section.
This constraint is enforced by lockdep-RCU.  However, there is a need
to enter an SRCU read-side critical section within the context of an
exception and then exit in the context of the task that encountered the
exception.  The cost of this capability is that the read-side operations
incur the overhead of disabling interrupts.

Note that although the current implementation allows a given read-side
critical section to be entered by one task and then exited by another, all
known possible implementations that allow this have scalability problems.
Therefore, a given read-side critical section must be exited by the same
task that entered it, though perhaps from an interrupt or exception
handler running within that task's context.  But if you are thinking
in terms of interrupt handlers, make sure that you have considered the
possibility of threaded interrupt handlers.

Credit goes to Peter Zijlstra for suggesting use of the existing _raw
suffix to indicate disabling lockdep over the earlier "bulkref" names.

The PowerPC pSeries platform (CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES=y) enables
hypervisor-call tracing for CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS=y kernels.  One of the
hypervisor calls that is traced is the H_CEDE call in the idle loop
that tells the hypervisor that this OS instance no longer needs the
current CPU.  However, tracing uses RCU, so this combination of kernel
configuration variables needs to avoid telling RCU about the current CPU's
idleness until after the H_CEDE-entry tracing completes on the one hand,
and must tell RCU that the the current CPU is no longer idle before the
H_CEDE-exit tracing starts.

In all other cases, it suffices to inform RCU of CPU idleness upon
idle-loop entry and exit.

This commit makes the required adjustments.

On the irq exit path, tick_nohz_irq_exit()

This is an illegal use of RCU because we may be in RCU

side critical section but at that time we already switched into

illegal to use rcu_read_lock() in that state.

It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless
mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always
true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after
the tick is stopped.

To prepare for fixing this, add two new APIs:
tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() and tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu().

If no use of RCU is made in the idle loop between
tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() calls, the arch
must instead call the new *_norcu() version such that the arch doesn't
need to call rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit().

Otherwise the arch must call tick_nohz_enter_idle() and
tick_nohz_exit_idle() and also call explicitly:

- rcu_idle_enter() after its last use of RCU before the CPU is put
to sleep.
- rcu_idle_exit() before the first use of RCU after the CPU is woken
up.

The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() function, which tries to delay
the next timer tick as long as possible, can be called from two
places:

- From the idle loop to start the dytick idle mode
- From interrupt exit if we have interrupted the dyntick
idle mode, so that we reprogram the next tick event in
case the irq changed some internal state that requires this
action.

There are only few minor differences between both that
are handled by that function, driven by the ts->inidle
cpu variable and the inidle parameter. The whole guarantees
that we only update the dyntick mode on irq exit if we actually
interrupted the dyntick idle mode, and that we enter in RCU extended
quiescent state from idle loop entry only.

Split this function into:

- tick_nohz_idle_enter(), which sets ts->inidle to 1, enters
dynticks idle mode unconditionally if it can, and enters into RCU
extended quiescent state.

- tick_nohz_irq_exit() which only updates the dynticks idle mode
when ts->inidle is set (ie: if tick_nohz_idle_enter() has been called).

To maintain symmetry, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick() has been renamed
into tick_nohz_idle_exit().

This simplifies the code and micro-optimize the irq exit path (no need
for local_irq_save there). This also prepares for the split between
dynticks and rcu extended quiescent state logics. We'll need this split to
further fix illegal uses of RCU in extended quiescent states in the idle
loop.

This way we can guarantee an extended quiescent window where the CPU

Because rcu_is_cpu_idle() is to be used to check for extended quiescent
states in RCU-preempt read-side critical sections, it cannot assume that
preemption is disabled.  And preemption must be disabled when accessing
the dyntick-idle state, because otherwise the following sequence of events
could occur:

1.	Task A on CPU 1 enters rcu_is_cpu_idle() and picks up the pointer
	to CPU 1's per-CPU variables.

2.	Task B preempts Task A and starts running on CPU 1.

3.	Task A migrates to CPU 2.

4.	Task B blocks, leaving CPU 1 idle.

5.	Task A continues execution on CPU 2, accessing CPU 1's dyntick-idle
	information using the pointer fetched in step 1 above, and finds
	that CPU 1 is idle.

6.	Task A therefore incorrectly concludes that it is executing in
	an extended quiescent state, possibly issuing a spurious splat.

Therefore, this commit disables preemption within the rcu_is_cpu_idle()
function.

Earlier versions of RCU used the scheduling-clock tick to detect idleness
by checking for the idle task, but handled idleness differently for
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y.  But there are now a number of uses of RCU read-side
critical sections in the idle task, for example, for tracing.  A more
fine-grained detection of idleness is therefore required.

This commit presses the old dyntick-idle code into full-time service,
so that rcu_idle_enter(), previously known as rcu_enter_nohz(), is
always invoked at the beginning of an idle loop iteration.  Similarly,
rcu_idle_exit(), previously known as rcu_exit_nohz(), is always invoked
at the end of an idle-loop iteration.  This allows the idle task to
use RCU everywhere except between consecutive rcu_idle_enter() and
rcu_idle_exit() calls, in turn allowing architecture maintainers to
specify exactly where in the idle loop that RCU may be used.

Because some of the userspace upcall uses can result in what looks
to RCU like half of an interrupt, it is not possible to expect that
the irq_enter() and irq_exit() hooks will give exact counts.  This
patch therefore expands the ->dynticks_nesting counter to 64 bits
and uses two separate bitfields to count process/idle transitions
and interrupt entry/exit transitions.  It is presumed that userspace
upcalls do not happen in the idle loop or from usermode execution
(though usermode might do a system call that results in an upcall).
The counter is hard-reset on each process/idle transition, which
avoids the interrupt entry/exit error from accumulating.  Overflow
is avoided by the 64-bitness of the ->dyntick_nesting counter.

This commit also adds warnings if a non-idle task asks RCU to enter
idle state (and these checks will need some adjustment before applying
Frederic's OS-jitter patches (http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/7/246).
In addition, validation of ->dynticks and ->dynticks_nesting is added.

There are a number of bugs that can leak or overuse lock classes,
which can cause the maximum number of lock classes (currently 8191)
to be exceeded.  However, the documentation does not tell you how to
track down these problems.  This commit addresses this shortcoming.

When synchronize_sched_expedited() takes its second and subsequent
snapshots of sync_sched_expedited_started, it subtracts 1.  This
means that the concurrent caller of synchronize_sched_expedited()
that incremented to that value sees our successful completion, it
will not be able to take advantage of it.  This restriction is
pointless, given that our full expedited grace period would have
happened after the other guy started, and thus should be able to
serve as a proxy for the other guy successfully executing
try_stop_cpus().

This commit therefore removes the subtraction of 1.

Because rcu_read_unlock_special() samples rcu_preempted_readers_exp(rnp)
after dropping rnp->lock, the following sequence of events is possible:

1.	Task A exits its RCU read-side critical section, and removes
	itself from the ->blkd_tasks list, releases rnp->lock, and is
	then preempted.  Task B remains on the ->blkd_tasks list, and
	blocks the current expedited grace period.

2.	Task B exits from its RCU read-side critical section and removes
	itself from the ->blkd_tasks list.  Because it is the last task
	blocking the current expedited grace period, it ends that
	expedited grace period.

3.	Task A resumes, and samples rcu_preempted_readers_exp(rnp) which
	of course indicates that nothing is blocking the nonexistent
	expedited grace period. Task A is again preempted.

4.	Some other CPU starts an expedited grace period.  There are several
	tasks blocking this expedited grace period queued on the
	same rcu_node structure that Task A was using in step 1 above.

5.	Task A examines its state and incorrectly concludes that it was
	the last task blocking the expedited grace period on the current
	rcu_node structure.  It therefore reports completion up the
	rcu_node tree.

6.	The expedited grace period can then incorrectly complete before
	the tasks blocked on this same rcu_node structure exit their
	RCU read-side critical sections.  Arbitrarily bad things happen.

This commit therefore takes a snapshot of rcu_preempted_readers_exp(rnp)
prior to dropping the lock, so that only the last task thinks that it is
the last task, thus avoiding the failure scenario laid out above.

The ->signaled field was named before complications in the form of

Since commit a25cac51 ("proc: Consider NO_HZ when printing idle and
iowait times") we are reporting idle/io_wait time also while a CPU is
tickless.  We rely on get_{idle,iowait}_time functions to retrieve
proper data.

These functions, however, use usecs_to_cputime to translate micro
seconds time to cputime64_t.  This is just an alias to usecs_to_jiffies
which reduces the data type from u64 to unsigned int and also checks
whether the given parameter overflows jiffies_to_usecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)
and returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET in that case.

When we overflow depends on CONFIG_HZ but especially for CONFIG_HZ_300
it is quite low (1431649781) so we are getting MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET for
>3000s! until we overflow unsigned int.  Just for reference
CONFIG_HZ_100 has an overflow window around 20s, CONFIG_HZ_250 ~8s and
CONFIG_HZ_1000 ~2s.

This results in a bug when people saw [h]top going mad reporting 100%
CPU usage even though there was basically no CPU load.  The reason was
simply that /proc/stat stopped reporting idle/io_wait changes (and
reported MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET) and so the only change happening was for user
system time.

Let's use nsecs_to_jiffies64 instead which doesn't reduce the precision
to 32b type and it is much more appropriate for cumulative time values
(unlike usecs_to_jiffies which intended for timeout calculations).

Commit f5252e00 ("mm: avoid null pointer access in vm_struct via
/proc/vmallocinfo") adds newly allocated vm_structs to the vmlist after
it is fully initialised.  Unfortunately, it did not check that
__vmalloc_area_node() successfully populated the area.  In the event of
allocation failure, the vmalloc area is freed but the pointer to freed
memory is inserted into the vmlist leading to a a crash later in
get_vmalloc_info().

This patch adds a check for ____vmalloc_area_node() failure within
__vmalloc_node_range.  It does not use "goto fail" as in the previous
error path as a warning was already displayed by __vmalloc_area_node()
before it called vfree in its failure path.

Credit goes to Luciano Chavez for doing all the real work of identifying
exactly where the problem was.
