The x86 architecture has multiple types of NMI-like interrupts: real NMIs, machine checks, and, for some values of NMI-like, debugging and breakpoint interrupts. These interrupts can nest inside each other. Andy Lutomirski is adding RCU support to these interrupts, so rcu_nmi_enter() and rcu_nmi_exit() must now correctly handle nesting. This commit therefore introduces nesting, using a clever NMI-coordination algorithm suggested by Andy. The trick is to atomically increment ->dynticks (if needed) before manipulating ->dynticks_nmi_nesting on entry (and, accordingly, after on exit). In addition, ->dynticks_nmi_nesting is incremented by one if ->dynticks was incremented and by two otherwise. This means that when rcu_nmi_exit() sees ->dynticks_nmi_nesting equal to one, it knows that ->dynticks must be atomically incremented. This NMI-coordination algorithms has been validated by the following Promela model: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /* * Promela model for Andy Lutomirski's suggested change to rcu_nmi_enter() * that allows nesting. * * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or * (at your option) any later version. * * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
