The current memmory-allocation interface causes the following difficulties
for kvfree_rcu():
a) If built with CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING, the lockdep will
complain about violation of the nesting rules, as in "BUG: Invalid
wait context". This Kconfig option checks for proper raw_spinlock
vs. spinlock nesting, in particular, it is not legal to acquire a
spinlock_t while holding a raw_spinlock_t.
This is a problem because kfree_rcu() uses raw_spinlock_t whereas the
"page allocator" internally deals with spinlock_t to access to its
zones. The code also can be broken from higher level of view:
<snip>
raw_spin_lock(&some_lock);
kfree_rcu(some_pointer, some_field_offset);
<snip>
b) If built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT, spinlock_t is converted into
sleeplock. This means that invoking the page allocator from atomic
contexts results in "BUG: scheduling while atomic".
c) Please note that call_rcu() is already invoked from raw atomic context,
so it is only reasonable to expaect that kfree_rcu() and kvfree_rcu()
will also be called from atomic raw context.
This commit therefore defers page allocation to a clean context using the
combination of an hrtimer and a workqueue. The hrtimer stage is required
in order to avoid deadlocks with the scheduler. This deferred allocation
is required only when kvfree_rcu()'s per-CPU page cache is empty.

An outgoing CPU is marked offline in a stop-machine handler and most
of that CPU's services stop at that point, including IRQ work queues.
However, that CPU must take another pass through the scheduler and through
a number of CPU-hotplug notifiers, many of which contain RCU readers.
In the past, these readers were not a problem because the outgoing CPU
has interrupts disabled, so that rcu_read_unlock_special() would not
be invoked, and thus RCU would never attempt to queue IRQ work on the
outgoing CPU.
This changed with the advent of the CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD
Kconfig option, in which rcu_read_unlock_special() is invoked upon exit
from almost all RCU read-side critical sections. Worse yet, because
interrupts are disabled, rcu_read_unlock_special() cannot immediately
report a quiescent state and will therefore attempt to defer this
reporting, for example, by queueing IRQ work. Which fails with a splat
because the CPU is already marked as being offline.
But it turns out that there is no need to report this quiescent state
because rcu_report_dead() will do this job shortly after the outgoing
CPU makes its final dive into the idle loop. This commit therefore
makes rcu_read_unlock_special() refrain from queuing IRQ work onto
outgoing CPUs.

The rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() functions transition the
current CPU between online and offline state from an RCU perspective.
Unfortunately, this means that the rcu_cpu_starting() function's lock
acquisition and the rcu_report_dead() function's lock releases happen
while the CPU is offline from an RCU perspective, which can result
in lockdep-RCU splats about using RCU from an offline CPU. And this
situation can also result in too-short grace periods, especially in
guest OSes that are subject to vCPU preemption.
This commit therefore uses sequence-count-like synchronization to forgive
use of RCU while RCU thinks a CPU is offline across the full extent of
the rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() function's lock acquisitions
and releases.
One approach would have been to use the actual sequence-count primitives
provided by the Linux kernel. Unfortunately, the resulting code looks
completely broken and wrong, and is likely to result in patches that
break RCU in an attempt to address this appearance of broken wrongness.
Plus there is no net savings in lines of code, given the additional
explicit memory barriers required.
Therefore, this sequence count is instead implemented by a new ->ofl_seq
field in the rcu_node structure. If this counter's value is an odd
number, RCU forgives RCU read-side critical sections on other CPUs covered
by the same rcu_node structure, even if those CPUs are offline from
an RCU perspective. In addition, if a given leaf rcu_node structure's
->ofl_seq counter value is an odd number, rcu_gp_init() delays starting
the grace period until that counter value changes.

Testing showed that rcu_pending() can return 1 when offloaded callbacks
are ready to execute. This invokes RCU core processing, for example,
by raising RCU_SOFTIRQ, eventually resulting in a call to rcu_core().
However, rcu_core() explicitly avoids in any way manipulating offloaded
callbacks, which are instead handled by the rcuog and rcuoc kthreads,
which work independently of rcu_core().
One exception to this independence is that rcu_core() invokes
do_nocb_deferred_wakeup(), however, rcu_pending() also checks
rcu_nocb_need_deferred_wakeup() in order to correctly handle this case,
invoking rcu_core() when needed.
This commit therefore avoids needlessly invoking RCU core processing
by checking rcu_segcblist_ready_cbs() only on non-offloaded CPUs.
This reduces overhead, for example, by reducing softirq activity.
This change passed 30 minute tests of TREE01 through TREE09 each.
On TREE08, there is at most 150us from the time that rcu_pending() chose
not to invoke RCU core processing to the time when the ready callbacks
were invoked by the rcuoc kthread. This provides further evidence that
there is no need to invoke rcu_core() for offloaded callbacks that are
ready to invoke.

Currently, rcu_cpu_starting() checks to see if the RCU core expects a
quiescent state from the incoming CPU. However, the current interaction
between RCU quiescent-state reporting and CPU-hotplug operations should
mean that the incoming CPU never needs to report a quiescent state.
First, the outgoing CPU reports a quiescent state if needed. Second,
the race where the CPU is leaving just as RCU is initializing a new
grace period is handled by an explicit check for this condition. Third,
the CPU's leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock serializes these checks.
This means that if rcu_cpu_starting() ever feels the need to report
a quiescent state, then there is a bug somewhere in the CPU hotplug
code or the RCU grace-period handling code. This commit therefore
adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to bring that bug to everyone's attention.

Currently, for CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n kernels, rcu_blocking_is_gp() uses
num_online_cpus() to determine whether there is only one CPU online. When
there is only a single CPU online, the simple fact that synchronize_rcu()
could be legally called implies that a full grace period has elapsed.
Therefore, in the single-CPU case, synchronize_rcu() simply returns
immediately. Unfortunately, num_online_cpus() is unreliable while a
CPU-hotplug operation is transitioning to or from single-CPU operation
because:
1. num_online_cpus() uses atomic_read(&__num_online_cpus) to
locklessly sample the number of online CPUs. The hotplug locks
are not held, which means that an incoming CPU can concurrently
update this count. This in turn means that an RCU read-side
critical section on the incoming CPU might observe updates
prior to the grace period, but also that this critical section
might extend beyond the end of the optimized synchronize_rcu().
This breaks RCU's fundamental guarantee.
2. In addition, num_online_cpus() does no ordering, thus providing
another way that RCU's fundamental guarantee can be broken by
the current code.
3. The most probable failure mode happens on outgoing CPUs.
The outgoing CPU updates the count of online CPUs in the
CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU stop-machine handler, which is fine in
and of itself due to preemption being disabled at the call
to num_online_cpus(). Unfortunately, after that stop-machine
handler returns, the CPU takes one last trip through the
scheduler (which has RCU readers) and, after the resulting
context switch, one final dive into the idle loop. During this
time, RCU needs to keep track of two CPUs, but num_online_cpus()
will say that there is only one, which in turn means that the
surviving CPU will incorrectly ignore the outgoing CPU's RCU
read-side critical sections.
This problem is illustrated by the following litmus test in which P0()
corresponds to synchronize_rcu() and P1() corresponds to the incoming CPU.
The herd7 tool confirms that the "exists" clause can be satisfied,
thus demonstrating that this breakage can happen according to the Linux
kernel memory model.
{
int x = 0;
atomic_t numonline = ATOMIC_INIT(1);
}
P0(int *x, atomic_t *numonline)
{
int r0;
WRITE_ONCE(*x, 1);
r0 = atomic_read(numonline);
if (r0 == 1) {
smp_mb();
} else {
synchronize_rcu();
}
WRITE_ONCE(*x, 2);
}
P1(int *x, atomic_t *numonline)
{
int r0; int r1;
atomic_inc(numonline);
smp_mb();
rcu_read_lock();
r0 = READ_ONCE(*x);
smp_rmb();
r1 = READ_ONCE(*x);
rcu_read_unlock();
}
locations [x;numonline;]
exists (1:r0=0 /\ 1:r1=2)
It is important to note that these problems arise only when the system
is transitioning to or from single-CPU operation.
One solution would be to hold the CPU-hotplug locks while sampling
num_online_cpus(), which was in fact the intent of the (redundant)
preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() surrounding this call to
num_online_cpus(). Actually blocking CPU hotplug would not only result
in excessive overhead, but would also unnecessarily impede CPU-hotplug
operations.
This commit therefore follows long-standing RCU tradition by maintaining
a separate RCU-specific set of CPU-hotplug books.
This separate set of books is implemented by a new ->n_online_cpus field
in the rcu_state structure that maintains RCU's count of the online CPUs.
This count is incremented early in the CPU-online process, so that
the critical transition away from single-CPU operation will occur when
there is only a single CPU. Similarly for the critical transition to
single-CPU operation, the counter is decremented late in the CPU-offline
process, again while there is only a single CPU. Because there is only
ever a single CPU when the ->n_online_cpus field undergoes the critical
1->2 and 2->1 transitions, full memory ordering and mutual exclusion is
provided implicitly and, better yet, for free.
In the case where the CPU is coming online, nothing will happen until
the current CPU helps it come online. Therefore, the new CPU will see
all accesses prior to the optimized grace period, which means that RCU
does not need to further delay this new CPU. In the case where the CPU
is going offline, the outgoing CPU is totally out of the picture before
the optimized grace period starts, which means that this outgoing CPU
cannot see any of the accesses following that grace period. Again,
RCU needs no further interaction with the outgoing CPU.
This does mean that synchronize_rcu() will unnecessarily do a few grace
periods the hard way just before the second CPU comes online and just
after the second-to-last CPU goes offline, but it is not worth optimizing
this uncommon case.

Pull RCU fix from Paul McKenney:
"A single commit that fixes a bug that was introduced a couple of merge
windows ago, but which rather more recently converged to an
agreed-upon fix. The bug is that interrupts can be incorrectly enabled
while holding an irq-disabled spinlock. This can of course result in
self-deadlocks.
The bug is a bit difficult to trigger. It requires that a preempted
task be blocking a preemptible-RCU grace period long enough to trigger
an RCU CPU stall warning. In addition, an interrupt must occur at just
the right time, and that interrupt's handler must acquire that same
irq-disabled spinlock. Still, a deadlock is a deadlock.
Furthermore, we do now have a fix, and that fix survives kernel test
robot, -next, and rcutorture testing. It has also been verified by
Sebastian as fixing the bug. Therefore..."

The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function requires that
interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts disabled from
rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not enabled as expected"
diagnostic. This commit therefore updates rcu_print_task_stall()
to accumulate a list of the first few tasks while holding the current
leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock, then releases that lock and only then
uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to attempt to obtain per-task
detailed information. Of course, as soon as ->lock is released, the
task might exit, so the get_task_struct() function is used to prevent
the task structure from going away in the meantime.

Commit ce3d31ad3c ("arm64/smp: Move rcu_cpu_starting() earlier") ensured
that RCU is informed early about incoming CPUs that might end up calling
into printk() before they are online. However, if such a CPU fails the
early CPU feature compatibility checks in check_local_cpu_capabilities(),
then it will be powered off or parked without informing RCU, leading to
an endless stream of stalls:
| rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:
| rcu: 2-O...: (0 ticks this GP) idle=002/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=0/0 fqs=2593
| (detected by 0, t=5252 jiffies, g=9317, q=136)
| Task dump for CPU 2:
| task:swapper/2 state:R running task stack: 0 pid: 0 ppid: 1 flags:0x00000028
| Call trace:
| ret_from_fork+0x0/0x30
Ensure that the dying CPU invokes rcu_report_dead() prior to being powered
off or parked.

Currently, the units of ->init_fract are milliseconds while those of
->gp_sleep are jiffies. For consistency with each other and with the
argument of schedule_timeout_idle(), this commit changes the units of
->init_fract to jiffies.
This change does affect the backoff algorithm, but only on systems where
HZ is not 1000, and even there the change makes more sense, given that the
current setup would "back off" to the same number of jiffies repeatedly.
In contrast, with this change, the number of jiffies waited increases
on each pass through the loop in the rcu_tasks_wait_gp() function.

If cur_ops->sync is NULL, rcu_torture_fwd_prog_nr() will nevertheless
attempt to call through it. This commit therefore flags cases where
neither need_resched() nor call_rcu() forward-progress testing
can be performed due to NULL function pointers, and also causes
rcu_torture_fwd_prog_nr() to take an early exit if cur_ops->sync()
is NULL.

Currently, stutter_wait() will happily spin waiting for the stutter
interval to end even if the caller is running at a real-time priority
level. This could starve normal-priority tasks for no good reason. This
commit therefore drops the calling task's priority to SCHED_OTHER MAX_NICE
if stutter_wait() needs to wait. But when it waits, stutter_wait()
returns true, which allows the caller to restore the priority if needed.
Callers that were already running at SCHED_OTHER MAX_NICE obviously
do not need any changes, but this commit also restores priority for
higher-priority callers.

If an rcutorture torture-test run is given a bad kvm.sh argument, the

from the user's perspective, it will just hang for the time specified
by the --duration argument. This commit therefore forces an immediate
kernel shutdown if a rcu_torture_init()-time error occurs, thus avoiding
the appearance of a hang. It also forces a console splat in this case
to clearly indicate the presence of an error.

Currently, accessing /proc/cpuinfo sends IPIs to idle CPUs in order to
learn their clock frequency. Which is a bit strange, given that waking
them from idle likely significantly changes their clock frequency.
This commit therefore avoids sending /proc/cpuinfo-induced IPIs to
idle CPUs.

The default value for refscale.nreaders is -1, which results in the code
setting the value to three-quarters of the number of CPUs. On single-CPU
systems, this results in three-quarters of the value one, which the C
language's integer arithmetic rounds to zero. This in turn results in
a divide-by-zero error.
This commit therefore adds bounds checking to the refscale module
parameters, so that if they are less than one, they are set to the
value one.

At the end of the test and after rcu_torture_writer() stalls, rcutorture
invokes show_rcu_gp_kthreads() in order to dump out information on the
RCU grace-period kthread. This makes a lot of sense when testing vanilla
RCU, but not so much for the other flavors. This commit therefore allows
per-flavor kthread-dump functions to be specified.

The lockdep_is_held() macro is defined as:
#define lockdep_is_held(lock) lock_is_held(&(lock)->dep_map)
This hides away the dereference, so that builds with !LOCKDEP don't break.
This works in current kernels because the RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() eliminates
its condition at preprocessor time in !LOCKDEP kernels. However, later
patches in this series will cause the compiler to see this condition even
in !LOCKDEP kernels. This commit prepares for this upcoming change by
switching from lock_is_held() to lockdep_is_held().

Some architectures assume that the stopped CPUs don't make function calls
to traceable functions when they are in the stopped state. See also commit
cb9d7fd51d ("watchdog: Mark watchdog touch functions as notrace").
Violating this assumption causes kernel crashes when switching tracer on
RISC-V.
Mark rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle() and stop_machine_yield() notrace to
prevent this.

"A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
This includes:
- kernel-doc markup fixes
- ReST fixes
- Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of
the docs build toolchain (Sphinx)
After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).
As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
that should be happening along the merge window.
The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.
PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
Sphinx 3.1"

Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop
objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications
and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting
to a blocking notifier.
Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs,
opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific
TCP option use.
Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life
of TCP CC implemented in BPF.
Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them
early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the
user space infra we have.
Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing.
Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'.
Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls.

Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying
overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update;
report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware

reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not).
Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard
counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space.
Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update
in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw,

offload.
Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have
this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS.
Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as
7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP.
Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver,

Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their
code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this
conversion is not yet complete).

added new members for struct kfree_rcu_cpu, but didn't add the

"make htmldocs":

./kernel/rcu/tree.c:3113: warning: Function parameter or member 'nr_bkv_objs' not described in 'kfree_rcu_cpu'
So, move the description for bkvcache to kernel-doc, and add a

The rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() function uses for_each_process_thread()
to scan the task list without the benefit of RCU read-side protection,
which can result in use-after-free errors on task_struct structures.
This error was missed because the TRACE01 rcutorture scenario enables
lockdep, but also builds with CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y. In this situation,
preemption is disabled everywhere, so lockdep thinks everywhere can
be a legitimate RCU reader. This commit therefore adds the needed
rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock().
Note that this bug can occur only after an RCU Tasks Trace CPU stall
warning, which by default only happens after a grace period has extended
for ten minutes (yes, not a typo, minutes).

When rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() function detects an RCU Tasks Trace
CPU stall, it adds all tasks blocking the current grace period to
a list, invoking get_task_struct() on each to prevent them from
being freed while on the list. It then traverses that list,
printing stall-warning messages for each one that is still blocking
the current grace period and removing it from the list. The list
removal invokes the matching put_task_struct().
This of course means that in the admittedly unlikely event that some
task executes its outermost rcu_read_unlock_trace() in the meantime, it
won't be removed from the list and put_task_struct() won't be executing,
resulting in a task_struct leak. This commit therefore makes the list
removal and put_task_struct() unconditional, stopping the leak.
Note further that this bug can occur only after an RCU Tasks Trace CPU
stall warning, which by default only happens after a grace period has
extended for ten minutes (yes, not a typo, minutes).

The more intense grace-period processing resulting from the 50x RCU
Tasks Trace grace-period speedups exposed the following race condition:
o Task A running on CPU 0 executes rcu_read_lock_trace(),
entering a read-side critical section.
o When Task A eventually invokes rcu_read_unlock_trace()
to exit its read-side critical section, this function
notes that the ->trc_reader_special.s flag is zero and
and therefore invoke wil set ->trc_reader_nesting to zero
using WRITE_ONCE(). But before that happens...
o The RCU Tasks Trace grace-period kthread running on some other
CPU interrogates Task A, but this fails because this task is
currently running. This kthread therefore sends an IPI to CPU 0.
o CPU 0 receives the IPI, and thus invokes trc_read_check_handler().
Because Task A has not yet cleared its ->trc_reader_nesting
counter, this function sees that Task A is still within its
read-side critical section. This function therefore sets the
->trc_reader_nesting.b.need_qs flag, AKA the .need_qs flag.
Except that Task A has already checked the .need_qs flag, which
is part of the ->trc_reader_special.s flag. The .need_qs flag
therefore remains set until Task A's next rcu_read_unlock_trace().
o Task A now invokes synchronize_rcu_tasks_trace(), which cannot
start a new grace period until the current grace period completes.
And thus cannot return until after that time.
But Task A's .need_qs flag is still set, which prevents the current
grace period from completing. And because Task A is blocked, it
will never execute rcu_read_unlock_trace() until its call to
synchronize_rcu_tasks_trace() returns.
We are therefore deadlocked.
This race is improbable, but 80 hours of rcutorture made it happen twice.
The race was possible before the grace-period speedup, but roughly 50x
less probable. Several thousand hours of rcutorture would have been
necessary to have a reasonable chance of making this happen before this
50x speedup.
This commit therefore eliminates this deadlock by setting
->trc_reader_nesting to a large negative number before checking the
.need_qs and zeroing (or decrementing with respect to its initial
value) ->trc_reader_nesting. For its part, the IPI handler's
trc_read_check_handler() function adds a check for negative values,
deferring evaluation of the task in this case. Taken together, these
changes avoid this deadlock scenario.
