      rcutorture: Verify RCU reader prevents full polling from completing · d594231a
      Paul E. McKenney authored
      This commit adds a test to rcu_torture_writer() that verifies that a
      ->get_gp_state_full() and ->poll_gp_state_full() polled grace-period
      sequence does not claim that a grace period elapsed within the confines
      of the corresponding read-side critical section.

      rcutorture: Allow per-RCU-flavor polled double-GP check · ed7d2f1a
      Paul E. McKenney authored
      Only vanilla RCU needs a double grace period for its compressed
      polled grace-period old-state cookie.  This commit therefore adds an
      rcu_torture_ops per-flavor function ->poll_need_2gp to allow this check
      to be adapted to the RCU flavor under test.  A NULL pointer for this
      function says that doubled grace periods are never needed.

      rcutorture: Abstract synchronous and polled API testing · ccb42229
      Paul E. McKenney authored
      This commit abstracts a do_rtws_sync() function that does synchronous
      grace-period testing, but also testing the polled API 25% of the time
      each for the normal and full-state variants of the polled API.

      rcu: Add full-sized polling for get_state() · 3fdefca9
      Paul E. McKenney authored
      The get_state_synchronize_rcu() API compresses the combined expedited and
      normal grace-period states into a single unsigned long, which conserves
      storage, but can miss grace periods in certain cases involving overlapping
      normal and expedited grace periods.  Missing the occasional grace period
      is usually not a problem, but there are use cases that care about each
      and every grace period.
      
      This commit therefore adds the next member of the full-state RCU
      grace-period polling API, namely the get_state_synchronize_rcu_full()
      function.  This uses up to three times the storage (rcu_gp_oldstate
      structure instead of unsigned long), but is guaranteed not to miss
      grace periods.

      rcu: Add full-sized polling for get_completed*() and poll_state*() · 91a967fd

      times the storage (rcu_gp_oldstate structure instead of unsigned long),
      but which are guaranteed not to miss grace periods, at least in situations
      where the single-CPU grace-period optimization does not apply.

      afs: Enable multipage folio support · 8549a263
      David Howells authored
      Enable multipage folio support for the afs filesystem.
      
      Support has already been implemented in netfslib, fscache and cachefiles
      and in most of afs, but I've waited for Matthew Wilcox's latest folio
      changes.
      
      Note that it does require a change to afs_write_begin() to return the
      correct subpage.  This is a "temporary" change as we're working on
      getting rid of the need for ->write_begin() and ->write_end()
      completely, at least as far as network filesystems are concerned - but
      it doesn't prevent afs from making use of the capability.
