The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the drivers/rcu uses of the __cpuinit macros
from all C files.

Calling kthread_run with a single name parameter causes it to be handled
as a format string. Many callers are passing potentially dynamic string
content, so use "%s" in those cases to avoid any potential accidents.

Systems with HZ=100 can have slow bootup times due to the default
three-jiffy delays between quiescent-state forcing attempts.  This
commit therefore auto-tunes the RCU_JIFFIES_TILL_FORCE_QS value based
on the value of HZ.  However, this would break very large systems that
require more time between quiescent-state forcing attempts.  This
commit therefore also ups the default delay by one jiffy for each
256 CPUs that might be on the system (based off of nr_cpu_ids at
runtime, -not- NR_CPUS at build time).

Updated to collapse #ifdefs for RCU_JIFFIES_TILL_FORCE_QS into a
step-function definition as suggested by Josh Triplett.

The __rcu_process_callbacks() invokes note_gp_changes() immediately
before invoking rcu_check_quiescent_state(), which conditionally
invokes that same function.  This commit therefore eliminates the
call to note_gp_changes() in __rcu_process_callbacks() in favor of
making unconditional to call from rcu_check_quiescent_state() to
note_gp_changes().

Given the changes that introduce note_gp_change(), rcu_start_gp_per_cpu()
is now a trivial wrapper function with only one caller.  This commit
therefore inlines it into its sole call site.

One of the calls to check_for_new_grace_period() is now redundant due to
an immediately preceding call to note_gp_changes().  Eliminating this
redundant call leaves a single caller, which is simpler if inlined.
This commit therefore eliminates the redundant call and inlines the
body of check_for_new_grace_period() into the single remaining call site.

Because note_new_gpnum() now also checks for the ends of old grace periods,
this commit changes its name to note_gp_changes().  Later commits will merge

The current implementation can detect the beginning of a new grace period
before noting the end of a previous grace period.  Although the current
implementation correctly handles this sort of nonsense, it would be
good to reduce RCU's state space by making such nonsense unnecessary,
which is now possible thanks to the fact that RCU's callback groups are
now numbered.

This commit therefore makes __note_new_gpnum() invoke
__rcu_process_gp_end() in order to note the ends of prior grace
periods before noting the beginnings of new grace periods.
Of course, this now means that note_new_gpnum() notes both the
beginnings and ends of grace periods, and could therefore be
used in place of rcu_process_gp_end().  But that is a job for
later commits.

This commit breaks this deadlock cycle by substituting a shorter udelay()
for the previous schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(), while at the same
time increasing the probability of the delay.  This maintains the intensity
of the testing.

This commit fixes a lockdep-detected deadlock by moving a wake_up()
call out from a rnp->lock critical section.  Please see below for

Notice the above call chain.

rcu_start_future_gp() is called with the rnp->lock held. Then it calls
rcu_start_gp_advance, which does a wakeup.

You can't do wakeups while holding the rnp->lock, as that would mean
that you could not do a rcu_read_unlock() while holding the rq lock, or
any lock that was taken while holding the rq lock. This is because...

Notice the above trace.

perf took its own ctx->lock, which can be taken while holding the rq
lock. While holding this lock, it did a rcu_read_unlock(). The
perf_lock_task_context() basically looks like:

rcu_read_lock();
raw_spin_lock(ctx->lock);
rcu_read_unlock();

Now, what looks to have happened, is that we scheduled after taking that
first rcu_read_lock() but before taking the spin lock. When we scheduled
back in and took the ctx->lock, the following rcu_read_unlock()
triggered the "special" code.

The rcu_read_unlock_special() takes the rnp->lock, which gives us a
possible deadlock scenario.

	CPU0		CPU1		CPU2
	----		----		----

				     rcu_nocb_kthread()
    lock(rq->lock);
		    lock(ctx->lock);
				     lock(rnp->lock);

				     wake_up();

				     lock(rq->lock);

		    rcu_read_unlock();

		    rcu_read_unlock_special();

		    lock(rnp->lock);
    lock(ctx->lock);

The CPUs that fail to meet this requirement will be

Adaptive-ticks CPUs inform RCU when they enter kernel mode, but they do
not necessarily turn the scheduler-clock tick back on.  This state of
affairs could result in RCU waiting on an adaptive-ticks CPU running
for an extended period in kernel mode.  Such a CPU will never run the
RCU state machine, and could therefore indefinitely extend the RCU state
machine, sooner or later resulting in an OOM condition.

This patch, inspired by an earlier patch by Frederic Weisbecker, therefore
causes RCU's force-quiescent-state processing to check for this condition
and to send an IPI to CPUs that remain in that state for too long.
"Too long" currently means about three jiffies by default, which is
quite some time for a CPU to remain in the kernel without blocking.
The rcu_tree.jiffies_till_first_fqs and rcutree.jiffies_till_next_fqs
sysfs variables may be used to tune "too long" if needed.

Now that rcu_start_future_gp() has been abstracted from

so as to register the need for any future grace periods needed by a

Because RCU callbacks are now associated with the number of the grace
period that they must wait for, CPUs can now take advance callbacks
corresponding to grace periods that ended while a given CPU was in
dyntick-idle mode.  This eliminates the need to try forcing the RCU

of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ, which should increase its energy efficiency.

Now that callback acceleration is idempotent, it is safe to accelerate

Currently, the per-no-CBs-CPU kthreads are named "rcuo" followed by
the CPU number, for example, "rcuo".  This is problematic given that
there are either two or three RCU flavors, each of which gets a per-CPU
kthread with exactly the same name.  This commit therefore introduces
a one-letter abbreviation for each RCU flavor, namely 'b' for RCU-bh,
'p' for RCU-preempt, and 's' for RCU-sched.  This abbreviation is used
to distinguish the "rcuo" kthreads, for example, for CPU 0 we would have
"rcuob/0", "rcuop/0", and "rcuos/0".

Offline CPUs transition through the scheduler to the idle loop one
last time before being shut down.  This can result in RCU raising
softirq on this CPU, which is at best useless given that the CPU's

Currently, CPU 0 is constrained to not be a no-CBs CPU, and furthermore
at least one no-CBs CPU must remain online at any given time.  These
restrictions are problematic in some situations, such as cases where
all CPUs must run a real-time workload that needs to be insulated from
OS jitter and latencies due to RCU callback invocation.  This commit
therefore provides no-CBs CPUs a (very crude and energy-inefficient)
way to start and to wait for grace periods independently of the normal
RCU callback mechanisms.  This approach allows any or all of the CPUs to
be designated as no-CBs CPUs, and allows any proper subset of the CPUs
(whether no-CBs CPUs or not) to be offlined.

This commit also provides a fix for a locking bug spotted by Xie
ChanglongX <changlongx.xie@intel.com>.

Tiny RCU has historically omitted RCU CPU stall warnings in order to
reduce memory requirements, however, lack of these warnings caused
Thomas Gleixner some debugging pain recently.  Therefore, this commit
adds RCU CPU stall warnings to tiny RCU if RCU_TRACE=y.  This keeps
the memory footprint small, while still enabling CPU stall warnings
in kernels built to enable them.

Updated to include Josh Triplett's suggested use of RCU_STALL_COMMON
config variable to simplify #if expressions.

This commit adds event tracing for callback acceleration to allow better
tracking of callbacks through the system.
Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, callbacks are advanced each time the corresponding CPU
notices a change in its leaf rcu_node structure's ->completed value
(this value counts grace-period completions).  This approach has worked
quite well, but with the advent of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ, we cannot count on
a given CPU seeing all the grace-period completions.  When a CPU misses
a grace-period completion that occurs while it is in dyntick-idle mode,
this will delay invocation of its callbacks.

In addition, acceleration of callbacks (when RCU realizes that a given
callback need only wait until the end of the next grace period, rather
than having to wait for a partial grace period followed by a full
grace period) must be carried out extremely carefully.  Insufficient
acceleration will result in unnecessarily long grace-period latencies,
while excessive acceleration will result in premature callback invocation.
Changes that involve this tradeoff are therefore among the most
nerve-wracking changes to RCU.

This commit therefore explicitly tags groups of callbacks with the
number of the grace period that they are waiting for.  This means that
callback-advancement and callback-acceleration functions are idempotent,
so that excessive acceleration will merely waste a few CPU cycles.  This
also allows a CPU to take full advantage of any grace periods that have
elapsed while it has been in dyntick-idle mode.  It should also enable
simulataneous simplifications to and optimizations of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ.

It turns out that gcc 4.8 warns on array indexes being out of bounds
unless it can prove otherwise.  It gives this warning on some RCU
initialization code.  Because this is far from any fastpath, add
an explicit check for array bounds and panic if so.  This gives the
compiler enough information to figure out that the array index is never
out of bounds.

However, if a similar false positive occurs on a fastpath, it will
probably be necessary to tell the compiler to keep its array-index
anxieties to itself.  ;-)

Create a new subsystem that probes on kernel boundaries
to keep track of the transitions between level contexts
with two basic initial contexts: user or kernel.

This is an abstraction of some RCU code that use such tracking
to implement its userspace extended quiescent state.

We need to pull this up from RCU into this new level of indirection
because this tracking is also going to be used to implement an "on
demand" generic virtual cputime accounting. A necessary step to
shutdown the tick while still accounting the cputime.

RCU callback execution can add significant OS jitter and also can
degrade both scheduling latency and, in asymmetric multiprocessors,
energy efficiency.  This commit therefore adds the ability for selected
CPUs ("rcu_nocbs=" boot parameter) to have their callbacks offloaded
to kthreads.  If the "rcu_nocb_poll" boot parameter is also specified,
these kthreads will do polling, removing the need for the offloaded
CPUs to do wakeups.  At least one CPU must be doing normal callback
processing: currently CPU 0 cannot be selected as a no-CBs CPU.
In addition, attempts to offline the last normal-CBs CPU will fail.

This feature was inspired by Jim Houston's and Joe Korty's JRCU, and
this commit includes fixes to problems located by Fengguang Wu's
kbuild test robot.
