All calls from outside RCU are of the form: if (rcu_pending(cpu)) rcu_check_callbacks(cpu, user); This is silly, instead we put a call to rcu_pending() in rcu_check_callbacks(), and then make the outside calls be to rcu_check_callbacks(). This cuts down on the code a bit and also gives the compiler a better chance of optimizing. Signed-off-by:

A couple of references to CONFIG_CLASSIC_RCU have survived. Although these are harmless, it is past time for them to go. The one in hardirq.h is strictly a readability problem. The two in pagemap.h appear to disable a !SMP performance optimization (which this patch re-enables). This does raise the issue as to whether pagemap.h should really be referring to the CPU implementation. Long term, I intend to make the RCU implementation driven by CONFIG_PREEMPT, at which point these should change from defined(CONFIG_TREE_RCU) to !defined(CONFIG_PREEMPT). In the meantime, is there something else that could be done in pagemap.h? Signed-off-by:

Since RCU callback migration is only performed on CPU-hotunplug operations, and since the rcu_barrier() race is provoked only by consecutive CPU-hotunplug operations, it is not necessary to delay the end of a given CPU-hotunplug operation. We can instead choose to delay the beginning of the next CPU-hotunplug operation. Reported-by:

This patch eliminates the counter-moving during CPU-offline notifiers, eliminating potential confusion if counters are scanned during counter-movement process. This confusion could result in premature ending of an RCU grace period. For example, if there are two tasks in RCU read-side critical sections (so that the sum of the counters is two), and the counter for the CPU going offline is -2, then moving the count to another CPU can result in the sum momentarily appearing to be zero. Since there are no memory barriers in either case, many more such scenarios are possible. So just don't move the counts!!! Signed-off-by:

Use the new cpu_notifier() API to simplify RCU's CPU-hotplug notifiers, collapsing down to a single such notifier. This makes it trivial to provide the notifier-ordering guarantee that rcu_barrier() depends on. Also remove redundant open_softirq() calls from Hierarchical RCU notifier. Signed-off-by:

This patch divides the rcutree initialization into boot-time and hotplug-time components, so that the tree data structures are guaranteed to be fully linked at boot time regardless of what might happen in CPU hotplug operations. This makes RCU more resilient against CPU hotplug misbehavior (and vice versa), but more importantly, does a better job of compartmentalizing the code. Reported-by:

free_irq() can remove an irqaction while the corresponding interrupt is in progress, but free_irq() sets action->thread to NULL unconditionally, which might lead to a NULL pointer dereference in handle_IRQ_event() when the hard interrupt context tries to wake up the handler thread. Prevent this by moving the thread stop after synchronize_irq(). No need to set action->thread to NULL either as action is going to be freed anyway. This fixes a boot crash reported against preempt-rt which uses the mainline irq threads code to implement full irq threading. [ tglx: removed local irqthread variable ] Signed-off-by:

kernel_sendpage() does the proper default case handling for when the socket doesn't have a native sendpage implementation. Now, arguably this might be something that we could instead solve by just specifying that all protocols should do it themselves at the protocol level, but we really only care about the common protocols. Does anybody really care about sendpage on something like Appletalk? Not likely. Acked-by:

A bug in (9f498cc5: perf_counter: Full task tracing) makes profiling multi-threaded apps it go belly up. [ output as: (PID:TID):(PPID:PTID) ] # ./perf report -D | grep FORK 0x4b0 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3237):(3236:3236) 0xa10 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3238):(3236:3236) 0xa70 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3239):(3236:3236) 0xad0 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3240):(3236:3236) 0xb18 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3241):(3236:3236) Shows us that the test (27d028de perf report: Update for the new FORK/EXIT events) in builtin-report.c: /* * A thread clone will have the same PID for both * parent and child. */ if (thread == parent) return 0; Will clearly fail. The problem is that perf_counter_fork() reports the actual parent, instead of the cloning thread. Fixing that (with the below patch), yields: # ./perf report -D | grep FORK 0x4c8 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1590):(1589:1589) 0xbd8 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1591):(1590:1590) 0xc80 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1592):(1590:1590) 0x3338 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1593):(1590:1590) 0x66b0 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1594):(1590:1590) Which both makes more sense and doesn't confuse perf report anymore.

perf_pending_counter() is called from IRQ context and will call perf_counter_disable(), however perf_counter_disable() uses smp_call_function_single() which doesn't fancy being used with IRQs disabled due to IPI deadlocks. Fix this by making it use the local __perf_counter_disable() call and teaching the counter_sched_out() code about pending disables as well. This should cover the case where a counter migrates before the pending queue gets processed. Signed-off-by:

perf_swcounter_is_counting() uses a lock, which means we cannot use swcounters from NMI or when holding that particular lock, this is unintended. The below removes the lock, this opens up race window, but not worse than the swcounters already experience due to RCU traversal of the context in perf_swcounter_ctx_event(). This also fixes the hard lockups while opening a lockdep tracepoint counter. Signed-off-by:

Convert the processor platform device setup functions from __initcall() and sometimes device_initcall() to arch_initcall(). This makes sure that the platform devices are registered a bit earlier so the devices are available when drivers register using initcall levels earlier than device_initcall(). A good example is platform devices needed by i2c-sh_mobile.c which registers a bit earlier using subsys_initcall(). Signed-off-by:

Normally we only allow the upper limit for a reshape to be decreased when the array not performing a sync/recovery/reshape, otherwise there could be races. But if an array is part-way through a reshape when it is assembled the reshape is started immediately leaving no window to set an upper bound. If the array is started read-only, the reshape will be suspended until the array becomes writable, so that provides a window during which it is perfectly safe to reduce the upper limit of a reshape. So: allow the upper limit (sync_max) to be reduced even if the reshape thread is running, as long as the array is still read-only. Signed-off-by:NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
