2020-05-28rcu: Allow for smp_call_function() running callbacks from idlePeter Zijlstra
Current RCU hard relies on smp_call_function() callbacks running from interrupt context. A pending optimization is going to break that, it will allow idle CPUs to run the callbacks from the idle loop. This avoids raising the IPI on the requesting CPU and avoids handling an exception on the receiving CPU. Change rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle() to also accept task context, provided it is the idle task.

2020-05-19rcu: Provide __rcu_is_watching()noinstr-rcu-220-05-23Thomas Gleixner
Same as rcu_is_watching() but without the preempt_disable/enable() pair inside the function. It is merked noinstr so it ends up in the non-instrumentable text section. This is useful for non-preemptible code especially in the low level entry section. Using rcu_is_watching() there results in a call to the preempt_schedule_notrace() thunk which triggers noinstr section warnings in objtool.

2020-05-19rcu: Provide rcu_irq_exit_preempt()Thomas Gleixner
Interrupts and exceptions invoke rcu_irq_enter() on entry and need to invoke rcu_irq_exit() before they either return to the interrupted code or invoke the scheduler due to preemption. The general assumption is that RCU idle code has to have preemption disabled so that a return from interrupt cannot schedule. So the return from interrupt code invokes rcu_irq_exit() and preempt_schedule_irq(). If there is any imbalance in the rcu_irq/nmi* invocations or RCU idle code had preemption enabled then this goes unnoticed until the CPU goes idle or some other RCU check is executed. Provide rcu_irq_exit_preempt() which can be invoked from the interrupt/exception return code in case that preemption is enabled. It invokes rcu_irq_exit() and contains a few sanity checks in case that CONFIG_PROVE_RCU is enabled to catch such issues directly.

2020-05-19rcu: Make RCU IRQ enter/exit functions rely on in_nmi()Paul E. McKenney
The rcu_nmi_enter_common() and rcu_nmi_exit_common() functions take an "irq" parameter that indicates whether these functions have been invoked from an irq handler (irq==true) or an NMI handler (irq==false). However, recent changes have applied notrace to a few critical functions such that rcu_nmi_enter_common() and rcu_nmi_exit_common() many now rely on in_nmi(). Note that in_nmi() works no differently than before, but rather that tracing is now prohibited in code regions where in_nmi() would incorrectly report NMI state. Therefore remove the "irq" parameter and inline rcu_nmi_enter_common() and rcu_nmi_exit_common() into rcu_nmi_enter() and rcu_nmi_exit(), respectively. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2020-05-09Stop the ad-hoc games with -Wno-maybe-initializedLinus Torvalds
We have some rather random rules about when we accept the "maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't. For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES). And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did. At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings. So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the extra compiler warnings, use W=123". Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not? Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and our source code would be simpler. That's currently not the world we live in, though.

2020-05-07tracing: Add a vmalloc_sync_mappings() for safe measureSteven Rostedt (VMware)
x86_64 lazily maps in the vmalloc pages, and the way this works with per_cpu areas can be complex, to say the least. Mappings may happen at boot up, and if nothing synchronizes the page tables, those page mappings may not be synced till they are used. This causes issues for anything that might touch one of those mappings in the path of the page fault handler. When one of those unmapped mappings is touched in the page fault handler, it will cause another page fault, which in turn will cause a page fault, and leave us in a loop of page faults. Commit 763802b53a42 ("x86/mm: split vmalloc_sync_all()") split vmalloc_sync_all() into vmalloc_sync_unmappings() and vmalloc_sync_mappings(), as on system exit, it did not need to do a full sync on x86_64 (although it still needed to be done on x86_32). By chance, the vmalloc_sync_all() would synchronize the page mappings done at boot up and prevent the per cpu area from being a problem for tracing in the page fault handler. But when that synchronization in the exit of a task became a nop, it caused the problem to appear.

2020-05-07tracing: Wait for preempt irq delay thread to finishSteven Rostedt (VMware)
Running on a slower machine, it is possible that the preempt delay kernel thread may still be executing if the module was immediately removed after added, and this can cause the kernel to crash as the kernel thread might be executing after its code has been removed. There's no reason that the caller of the code shouldn't just wait for the delay thread to finish, as the thread can also be created by a trigger in the sysfs code, which also has the same issues.

2020-04-28coredump: fix crash when umh is disabledLuis Chamberlain
Commit 64e90a8acb859 ("Introduce STATIC_USERMODEHELPER to mediate call_usermodehelper()") added the optiont to disable all call_usermodehelper() calls by setting STATIC_USERMODEHELPER_PATH to an empty string. When this is done, and crashdump is triggered, it will crash on null pointer dereference, since we make assumptions over what call_usermodehelper_exec() did. This has been reported by Sergey when one triggers a a coredump with the following configuration: ``` CONFIG_STATIC_USERMODEHELPER=y CONFIG_STATIC_USERMODEHELPER_PATH="" kernel.core_pattern = |/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h %e ``` The way disabling the umh was designed was that call_usermodehelper_exec() would just return early, without an error. But coredump assumes certain variables are set up for us when this happens, and calls ile_start_write(cprm.file) with a NULL file.

2020-04-27rcutorture: Mark data-race potential for rcu_barrier() test statisticsPaul E. McKenney
The n_barrier_successes, n_barrier_attempts, and n_rcu_torture_barrier_error variables are updated (without access markings) by the main rcu_barrier() test kthread, and accessed (also without access markings) by the rcu_torture_stats() kthread. This of course can result in KCSAN complaints. Because the accesses are in diagnostic prints, this commit uses data_race() to excuse the diagnostic prints from the data race. If this were to ever cause bogus statistics prints (for example, due to store tearing), any misleading information would be disambiguated by the presence or absence of an rcutorture splat. This data race was reported by KCSAN. Not appropriate for backporting due to failure being unlikely and due to the mild consequences of the failure, namely a confusing rcutorture console message.

2020-04-27rcu: Remove self-stack-trace when all quiescent states seenPaul E. McKenney
When all quiescent states have been seen, it is normally the grace-period kthread that is in trouble. Although the existing stack trace from the current CPU might possibly provide useful information, experience indicates that there is too much noise for this to be worthwhile. This commit therefore removes this stack trace from the output. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2020-04-27rcu: When GP kthread is starved, tag idle threads as false positivesPaul E. McKenney
If the grace-period kthread is starved, idle threads' extended quiescent states are not reported. These idle threads thus wrongly appear to be blocking the current grace period. This commit therefore tags such idle threads as probable false positives when the grace-period kthread is being starved. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2020-04-27rcu: Use data_race() for RCU expedited CPU stall-warning printsPaul E. McKenney
Although the accesses used to determine whether or not an expedited stall should be printed are an integral part of the concurrency algorithm governing use of the corresponding variables, the values that are simply printed are ancillary. As such, it is best to use data_race() for these accesses in order to provide the greatest latitude in the use of KCSAN for the other accesses that are an integral part of the algorithm. This commit therefore changes the relevant uses of READ_ONCE() to data_race(). Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>

2020-04-27rcu-tasks: Handle the running-offline idle-task special casePaul E. McKenney
The idle task corresponding to an offline CPU can appear to be running while that CPU is offline. This commit therefore adds checks for this situation, treating it as a quiescent state. Because the tasklist scan and the holdout-list scan now exclude CPU-hotplug operations, readers on the CPU-hotplug paths are still waited for. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>

2020-04-27rcu-tasks: Allow rcu_read_unlock_trace() under scheduler locksPaul E. McKenney
The rcu_read_unlock_trace() can invoke rcu_read_unlock_trace_special(), which in turn can call wake_up(). Therefore, if any scheduler lock is held across a call to rcu_read_unlock_trace(), self-deadlock can occur. This commit therefore uses the irq_work facility to defer the wake_up() to a clean environment where no scheduler locks will be held.

2020-04-27rcu-tasks: Avoid IPIing userspace/idle tasks if kernel is so builtPaul E. McKenney
Systems running CPU-bound real-time task do not want IPIs sent to CPUs executing nohz_full userspace tasks. Battery-powered systems don't want IPIs sent to idle CPUs in low-power mode. Unfortunately, RCU tasks trace can and will send such IPIs in some cases. Both of these situations occur only when the target CPU is in RCU dyntick-idle mode, in other words, when RCU is not watching the target CPU. This suggests that CPUs in dyntick-idle mode should use memory barriers in outermost invocations of rcu_read_lock_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_trace(), which would allow the RCU tasks trace grace period to directly read out the target CPU's read-side state. One challenge is that RCU tasks trace is not targeting a specific CPU, but rather a task. And that task could switch from one CPU to another at any time. This commit therefore uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() and checks for task_curr() in trc_inspect_reader_notrunning(). When this condition holds, the target task is running and cannot move. If CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB=y, the new rcu_dynticks_zero_in_eqs() function can be used to check if the specified integer (in this case, t->trc_reader_nesting) is zero while the target CPU remains in that same dyntick-idle sojourn. If so, the target task is in a quiescent state. If not, trc_read_check_handler() must indicate failure so that the grace-period kthread can take appropriate action or retry after an appropriate delay, as the case may be. With this change, given CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB=y, if a given CPU remains idle or a given task continues executing in nohz_full mode, the RCU tasks trace grace-period kthread will detect this without the need to send an IPI.

This commit also adds the read-side checking. Later commits will add the machinery to properly set the new ->trc_reader_special.b.need_mb field.

2020-04-27rcu-tasks: Provide boot parameter to delay IPIs until late in grace periodPaul E. McKenney
This commit provides a rcupdate.rcu_task_ipi_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies how old the RCU tasks trace grace period must be before the grace-period kthread starts sending IPIs. This delay allows more tasks to pass through rcu_tasks_qs() quiescent states, thus reducing (or even eliminating) the number of IPIs that must be sent. On a short rcutorture test setting this kernel boot parameter to HZ/2 resulted in zero IPIs for all 877 RCU-tasks trace grace periods that elapsed during that test. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
