As of commit dae6e64d2b ("rcu: Introduce proper blocking to no-CBs kthreads
GP waits") the RCU subsystem started making use of wait queues.
Here we convert all additions of RCU wait queues to use simple wait queues,
since they don't need the extra overhead of the full wait queue features.
Originally this was done for RT kernels[1], since we would get things like...
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rtmutex.c:659

...and hence simple wait queues were deployed on RT out of necessity
(as simple wait uses a raw lock), but mainline might as well take
advantage of the more streamline support as well.
[1] This is a carry forward of work from v3.10-rt; the original conversion
was by Thomas on an earlier -rt version, and Sebastian extended it to
additional post-3.10 added RCU waiters; here I've added a commit log and
unified the RCU changes into one, and uprev'd it to match mainline RCU.

rcu_nocb_gp_cleanup() is called while holding rnp->lock. Currently,
this is okay because the wake_up_all() in rcu_nocb_gp_cleanup() will
not enable the IRQs. lockdep is happy.
By switching over using swait this is not true anymore. swake_up_all()
enables the IRQs while processing the waiters. __do_softirq() can now
run and will eventually call rcu_process_callbacks() which wants to
grap nrp->lock.
Let's move the rcu_nocb_gp_cleanup() call outside the lock before we
switch over to swait.
If we would hold the rnp->lock and use swait, lockdep reports
following:

This commit replaces a local_irq_save()/local_irq_restore() pair with

remove the corresponding overhead from the interrupt entry/exit fastpaths.
This change was inspired by the fact that Iftekhar Ahmed's mutation
testing showed that removing rcu_irq_enter()'s call to local_ird_restore()
had no effect, which might indicate that interrupts were always enabled
anyway.

Currently, rcu_prepare_for_idle() checks for tick_nohz_active, even on
individual NOCBs CPUs, unless all CPUs are marked as NOCBs CPUs at build

corresponding rcuo kthread. There is a check for individually designated

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the file there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit. We could
consider moving this to an earlier initcall if desired.
We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that.
We also delete the moduleparam.h include that is left over from
commit 64db4cfff9 (""Tree RCU": scalable
classic RCU implementation") since it is not needed here either.
We morph some tags like MODULE_AUTHOR into the comments at the top of

Expedited grace periods can speed up boot, but are undesirable in

Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
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.

Earlier versions of synchronize_sched_expedited() can prematurely end
grace periods due to the fact that a CPU marked as cpu_is_offline()

and during the time that a given CPU is in the process of coming online.

This commit makes the RCU CPU stall warning message print online/offline

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.
So for CPU 10, you would normally see "10-...:" indicating that everything
believes that the CPU is online.

This commit switches synchronize_sched_expedited() from stop_one_cpu_nowait()
to smp_call_function_single(), thus moving from an IPI and a pair of
context switches to an IPI and a single pass through the scheduler.
Of course, if the scheduler actually does decide to switch to a different
task, there will still be a pair of context switches, but there would
likely have been a pair of context switches anyway, just a bit later.

1. Rename __rcu_sync_is_idle() to rcu_sync_lockdep_assert() and
change it to use rcu_lockdep_assert().
2. Change rcu_sync_is_idle() to return rsp->gp_state == GP_IDLE
unconditonally, this way we can remove the same check from
rcu_sync_lockdep_assert() and clearly isolate the debugging
code.
Note: rcu_sync_enter()->wait_event(gp_state == GP_PASSED) needs
another CONFIG_PROVE_RCU check, the same as is done in ->sync(); but
this needs some simple preparations in the core RCU code to avoid the
code duplication.

This commit allows rcu_sync structures to be safely deallocated,
The trick is to add a new ->wait field to the gp_ops array.
This field is a pointer to the rcu_barrier() function corresponding
to the flavor of RCU in question. This allows a new rcu_sync_dtor()
to wait for any outstanding callbacks before freeing the rcu_sync
structure.

This commit validates that the caller of rcu_sync_is_idle() holds the
corresponding type of RCU read-side lock, but only in kernels built
with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y. This validation is carried out via a new
rcu_sync_ops->held() method that is checked within rcu_sync_is_idle().
Note that although this does add code to the fast path, it only does so
in kernels built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y.

This commit adds the new struct rcu_sync_ops which holds sync/call
methods, and turns the function pointers in rcu_sync_struct into an array
of struct rcu_sync_ops. This simplifies the "init" helpers by collapsing
a switch statement and explicit multiple definitions into a simple
assignment and a helper macro, respectively.

The rcu_sync infrastructure can be thought of as infrastructure to be
used to implement reader-writer primitives having extremely lightweight
readers during times when there are no writers. The first use is in
the percpu_rwsem used by the VFS subsystem.
This infrastructure is functionally equivalent to
struct rcu_sync_struct {
atomic_t counter;
};
/* Check possibility of fast-path read-side operations. */
static inline bool rcu_sync_is_idle(struct rcu_sync_struct *rss)
{
return atomic_read(&rss->counter) == 0;
}
/* Tell readers to use slowpaths. */
static inline void rcu_sync_enter(struct rcu_sync_struct *rss)
{
atomic_inc(&rss->counter);
synchronize_sched();
}
/* Allow readers to once again use fastpaths. */
static inline void rcu_sync_exit(struct rcu_sync_struct *rss)
{
synchronize_sched();
atomic_dec(&rss->counter);
}
The main difference is that it records the state and only calls
synchronize_sched() if required. At least some of the calls to
synchronize_sched() will be optimized away when rcu_sync_enter() and
rcu_sync_exit() are invoked repeatedly in quick succession.
