As pointed out by commit
de9b8f5dcb ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")
init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.
As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().
Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -> idle_init().
Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().
Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:
@begone@
@@
-preempt_disable();
...
cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

Current csky's swappon is broken by wrong swap PTE entry format.
Now redesign the new format for abiv1 & abiv2 and make swappon +
zram work properly on csky machines.
C-SKY PTE has VALID, DIRTY to emulate PRESENT, READ, WRITE, EXEC
attributes. GLOBAL bit is shared by two pages in the same tlb
entry. So we need to keep GLOBAL, VALID, PRESENT zero in swp_pte.
To distinguish PAGE_NONE and swp_pte, we need to use an additional
bit (abiv1 is _PAGE_READ, abiv2 is _PAGE_WRITE).

For c860, there is no HAVE_FUTEX_CMPXCHG and cmpxchg_inatomic/inuser

Thx for point it out, we'll implement cmpxchg_inatomic/inuser for

The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config option called:
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. Currently, only x86_64 enables it.
All the ftrace callbacks now take a struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct
pt_regs. If the architecture has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then
the ftrace_regs will have enough information to read the arguments of the
function being traced, as well as access to the stack pointer. This way, if
a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the arguments, then it
can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback, that puts in enough
information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate a breakpoint exception
(needed for kprobes).
New config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring buffer at
most every event recorded. The "check_buffer()" calls will conflict with
mainline, because I purposely added the check without including the fix that
it caught, which is in mainline. Running a kernel built from the commit of
the added check will trigger it.
Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection to
the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
callbacks).
Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace to do
it for it (saving on that extra function call).
New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that lists all
the places that triggered the recursion protection of the function tracer.
This will show where things need to be fixed as recursion slows down the
function tracer.
The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a work
queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.
Various clean ups and last minute fixes.

Pull TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL updates from Jens Axboe:
"This sits on top of of the core entry/exit and x86 entry branch from
the tip tree, which contains the generic and x86 parts of this work.
Here we convert the rest of the archs to support TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL.
With that done, we can get rid of JOBCTL_TASK_WORK from task_work and
signal.c, and also remove a deadlock work-around in io_uring around
knowing that signal based task_work waking is invoked with the sighand
wait queue head lock.
The motivation for this work is to decouple signal notify based
task_work, of which io_uring is a heavy user of, from sighand. The
sighand lock becomes a huge contention point, particularly for
threaded workloads where it's shared between threads. Even outside of
threaded applications it's slower than it needs to be.
Roman Gershman <romger@amazon.com> reported that his networked
workload dropped from 1.6M QPS at 80% CPU to 1.0M QPS at 100% CPU
after io_uring was changed to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. The time was all
spent hammering on the sighand lock, showing 57% of the CPU time there
[1].
There are further cleanups possible on top of this. One example is
TIF_PATCH_PENDING, where a patch already exists to use
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL instead. Hopefully this will also lead to more
consolidation, but the work stands on its own as well"
