RCU's dyntick-idle code is written to tolerate half-interrupts, that it, either an interrupt that invokes rcu_irq_enter() but never invokes the corresponding rcu_irq_exit() on the one hand, or an interrupt that never invokes rcu_irq_enter() but does invoke the "corresponding" rcu_irq_exit() on the other. These things really did happen at one time, as evidenced by this ca-2011 LKML post: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20111014170019.GE2428@linux.vnet.ibm.com The reason why RCU tolerates half-interrupts is that usermode helpers used exceptions to invoke a system call from within the kernel such that the system call did a normal return (not a return from exception) to the calling context. This caused rcu_irq_enter() to be invoked without a matching rcu_irq_exit(). However, usermode helpers have since been rewritten to make much more housebroken use of workqueues, kernel threads, and do_execve(), and therefore should no longer produce half-interrupts. No one knows of any other source of half-interrupts, but then again, no one seems insane enough to go audit the entire kernel to verify that half-interrupts really are a relic of the past. This commit therefore adds a pair of WARN_ON_ONCE() calls that will trigger in the presence of half interrupts, which the code will continue to handle correctly. If neither of these WARN_ON_ONCE() trigger by mid-2021, then perhaps RCU can stop handling half-interrupts, which would be a considerable simplification.

The ->b.exp_need_qs field is now set only to false, so this commit removes it. The job this field used to do is now done by the rcu_data structure's ->deferred_qs field, which is a consequence of a better split between task-based (the rcu_node structure's ->exp_tasks field) and CPU-based (the aforementioned rcu_data structure's ->deferred_qs field) tracking of quiescent states for RCU-preempt expedited grace periods.

If an RCU-preempt read-side critical section is exiting, that is, ->rcu_read_lock_nesting is negative, then it is a good time to look at the possibility of reporting deferred quiescent states. This commit therefore updates the checks in rcu_preempt_need_deferred_qs() to allow exiting critical sections to report deferred quiescent states. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This commit makes the "rcu" torture type test extended read-side critical sections in order to test the deferral of RCU-preempt quiescent-state testing. In CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels, this simply duplicates the setup already in place for the "sched" torture type. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent state will be further deferred. This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section. This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed. Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example, context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks() because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt. In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock() that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might well force this restriction to remain in place. Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts, preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code cleanup. Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

When entering or exiting irq or NMI handlers, the current code uses ->dynticks_nmi_nesting to detect if it is in the outermost handler, that is, the one interrupting or returning to an RCU-idle context (the idle loop or nohz_full usermode execution). When entering the outermost handler via an interrupt (as opposed to NMI), it is necessary to invoke rcu_dynticks_task_exit() just before the CPU is marked non-idle from an RCU perspective and to invoke rcu_cleanup_after_idle() just after the CPU is marked non-idle. Similarly, when exiting the outermost handler via an interrupt, it is necessary to invoke rcu_prepare_for_idle() just before marking the CPU idle and to invoke rcu_dynticks_task_enter() just after marking the CPU idle. The decision to execute these four functions is currently taken in rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() as follows: rcu_irq_enter() /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ rcu_nmi_enter() /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */ /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ rcu_irq_exit() /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ rcu_nmi_exit() /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ rcu_nmi_enter() /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */ rcu_nmi_exit() /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ This works, but the conditional branches in rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() are redundant with those in rcu_nmi_enter() and rcu_nmi_exit(), respectively. Redundant branches are not something we want in the to/from-idle fastpaths, so this commit refactors rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}() so they use a common inlined function passed a constant argument as follows: rcu_irq_enter() inlining rcu_nmi_enter_common(irq=true) /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */ rcu_irq_exit() inlining rcu_nmi_exit_common(irq=true) /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ rcu_nmi_enter() inlining rcu_nmi_enter_common(irq=false) /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */ rcu_nmi_exit() inlining rcu_nmi_exit_common(irq=false) /* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */ The combination of the constant function argument and the inlining allows the compiler to discard the conditionals that previously controlled execution of rcu_dynticks_task_exit(), rcu_cleanup_after_idle(), rcu_prepare_for_idle(), and rcu_dynticks_task_enter(). This reduces both the to-idle and from-idle path lengths by two conditional branches each, and improves readability as well. This commit also changes order of execution from this: rcu_dynticks_task_exit(); rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit(); trace_rcu_dyntick(); rcu_cleanup_after_idle(); To this: rcu_dynticks_task_exit(); rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit(); rcu_cleanup_after_idle(); trace_rcu_dyntick(); In other words, the calls to rcu_cleanup_after_idle() and trace_rcu_dyntick() are reversed. This has no functional effect because the real concern is whether a given call is before or after the call to rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit(), and this patch does not change that. Before the call to rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit(), RCU is not yet watching the current CPU and after that call RCU is watching. A similar switch in calling order happens on the idle-entry path, with similar lack of effect for the same reasons. Suggested-by: Paul E.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.19_dax-memory-failure' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang: "As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax mappings. In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses: 1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races that would typically be handled by the page lock. 2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the "compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn. 3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.

This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during the page table copy operation. It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it was already not writable. This patch was inspired by https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447 which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the presence of lots of signals. That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series culminating in commit c3ad2c3b ("signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: - An implementation for the newly added hv_ops->flush() for the OPAL hvc console driver backends, I forgot to apply this after merging the hvc driver changes before the merge window. - Enable all PCI bridges at boot on powernv, to avoid races when multiple children of a bridge try to enable it simultaneously. This is a workaround until the PCI core can be enhanced to fix the races. - A fix to query PowerVM for the correct system topology at boot before initialising sched domains, seen in some configurations to cause broken scheduling etc. - A fix for pte_access_permitted() on "nohash" platforms. - Two commits to fix SIGBUS when using remap_pfn_range() seen on Power9 due to a workaround when using the nest MMU (GPUs, accelerators). - Another fix to the VFIO code used by KVM, the previous fix had some bugs which caused guests to not start in some configurations. - A handful of other minor fixes.

Enabling the interrupt early, before power has been applied to the device, can result in an interrupt being delivered too early if: - the IOMMU shares an interrupt with a VOP - the VOP has a pending interrupt (after a kexec, for example) In these conditions, we end-up taking the interrupt without the IOMMU being ready to handle the interrupt (not powered on). Moving the interrupt request past the pm_runtime_enable() call makes sure we can at least access the IOMMU registers. Note that this is only a partial fix, and that the VOP interrupt will still be screaming until the VOP driver kicks in, which advocates for a more synchronized interrupt enabling/disabling approach.

pm_runtime_get_if_in_use can fail: either PM has been disabled altogether (-EINVAL), or the device hasn't been enabled yet (0). Sadly, the Rockchip IOMMU driver tends to conflate the two things by considering a non-zero return value as successful. This has the consequence of hiding other bugs, so let's handle this case throughout the driver, with a WARN_ON_ONCE so that we can try and work out what happened.

A number of the Rockchip-specific drivers (IOMMU, display controllers) are now assuming that CONFIG_PM is set, and may completely misbehave if that's not the case. Since there is hardly any reason for this configuration option not to be selected anyway, let's require it (in the same way Tegra already does).
