This commit adds rcu_first_leaf_node() that returns a pointer to the first leaf rcu_node structure in the specified RCU flavor and an rcu_is_leaf_node() that returns true iff the specified rcu_node structure is a leaf. This commit also uses these macros where appropriate. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: NNicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>

The latency of RCU expedited grace periods grows with increasing numbers of CPUs, eventually failing to be all that expedited. Much of the growth in latency is in the initialization phase, so this commit uses workqueues to carry out this initialization concurrently on a rcu_node-by-rcu_node basis. This change makes use of a new rcu_par_gp_wq because flushing a work item from another work item running from the same workqueue can result in deadlock. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

RCU's expedited grace periods can participate in out-of-memory deadlocks due to all available system_wq kthreads being blocked and there not being memory available to create more. This commit prevents such deadlocks by allocating an RCU-specific workqueue_struct at early boot time, and providing it with a rescuer to ensure forward progress. This uses the shiny new init_rescuer() function provided by Tejun (but indirectly). This commit also causes SRCU to use this new RCU-specific workqueue_struct. Note that SRCU's use of workqueues never blocks them waiting for readers, so this should be safe from a forward-progress viewpoint. Note that this moves SRCU from system_power_efficient_wq to a normal workqueue. In the unlikely event that this results in measurable degradation, a separate power-efficient workqueue will be creates for SRCU.

This commit reworks the first loop in sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus() to avoid doing unnecssary stores to other CPUs' rcu_data structures. This speeds up that first loop by roughly a factor of two on an old x86 system. In the case where the system is mostly idle, this loop incurs a large fraction of the overhead of the synchronize_rcu_expedited(). There is less benefit on busy systems because the overhead of the smp_call_function_single() in the second loop dominates in that case. However, it is not unusual to do configuration chances involving RCU grace periods (both expedited and normal) while the system is mostly idle, so this optimization is worth doing. While we are in the area, this commit also adds parentheses to arguments used by the for_each_leaf_node_possible_cpu() macro. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> -

The rcu_seq_end() function increments seq signifying completion of a grace period, after that checks that the seq is even and wakes _synchronize_rcu_expedited(). The _synchronize_rcu_expedited() function uses wait_event() to wait for even seq. The problem is that wait_event() can return as soon as seq becomes even without waiting for the wakeup. In such case the warning in rcu_seq_end() can falsely fire if the next expedited grace period starts before the check. Check that seq has good value before incrementing it.

The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases during bootup. In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period. In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods, workqueues are not yet running. During this time, any attempt to do a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly, depending). In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and everything works normally. This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase. This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit 8b355e3b ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue"). Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs parameter). The callchain from the failure case is as follows: early_amd_iommu_init() |-> acpi_put_table(ivrs_base); |-> acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc); |-> acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc); |-> acpi_tb_release_table(...) |-> acpi_os_unmap_memory |-> acpi_os_unmap_iomem |-> acpi_os_map_cleanup |-> synchronize_rcu_expedited The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y, which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were initialized, which did not go well. This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods to proceed during this mid-boot phase. This commit is therefore a fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put forward post-merge-window in v4.10. This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting() function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited path. The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase. Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used. Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals (or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned through core_initcall() time.

For RCU in UP, context-switch = QS = GP, thus we can force a context-switch when any call_rcu_[bh|sched]() is happened on idle_task. After doing so, rcu_idle/irq_enter/exit() are useless, so we can simply make these functions empty. More important, this change does not change the functionality logically. Note: raise_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ)/rcu_sched_qs() in rcu_idle_enter() and outmost rcu_irq_exit() will have to wake up the ksoftirqd (due to in_interrupt() == 0). Before this patch After this patch: call_rcu_sched() in idle; call_rcu_sched() in idle set resched do other stuffs; do other stuffs outmost rcu_irq_exit() outmost rcu_irq_exit() (empty function) (or rcu_idle_enter()) (or rcu_idle_enter(), also empty function) start to resched.
