3f3c1e735d rcu-tasks: Repair RCU Tasks Trace quiescence check
[ Upstream commit 2eb52fa8900e642b3b5054c4bf9776089d2a935f ]

The context-switch-time check for RCU Tasks Trace quiescence expects
current->trc_reader_special.b.need_qs to be zero, and if so, updates
it to TRC_NEED_QS_CHECKED.  This is backwards, because if this value
is zero, there is no RCU Tasks Trace grace period in flight, an thus
no need for a quiescent state.  Instead, when a grace period starts,
this field is set to TRC_NEED_QS.

This commit therefore changes the check from zero to TRC_NEED_QS.

f21ddce5b8 rcu: add a helper to report consolidated flavor QS
[ Upstream commit 1a77557d48cff187a169c2aec01c0dd78a5e7e50 ]

When under heavy load, network processing can run CPU-bound for many
tens of seconds. Even in preemptible kernels (non-RT kernel), this can
block RCU Tasks grace periods, which can cause trace-event removal to
take more than a minute, which is unacceptably long.

This commit therefore creates a new helper function that passes through
both RCU and RCU-Tasks quiescent states every 100 milliseconds. This
hard-coded value suffices for current workloads.

3c6cc62ce1 locking: Introduce __cleanup() based infrastructure
commit 54da6a0924311c7cf5015533991e44fb8eb12773 upstream.

Use __attribute__((__cleanup__(func))) to build:

 - simple auto-release pointers using __free()

 - 'classes' with constructor and destructor semantics for
   scope-based resource management.

 - lock guards based on the above classes.

1010882619 rcu-tasks: Provide rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp()
[ Upstream commit e6c86c513f440bec5f1046539c7e3c6c653842da ]

As an accident of implementation, an RCU Tasks Trace grace period also
acts as an RCU grace period.  However, this could change at any time.
This commit therefore creates an rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp() that currently
returns true to codify this accident.  Code relying on this accident
must call this function to verify that this accident is still happening.

4a501b4ef8 rcu: Make RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() avoid early lockdep checks
[ Upstream commit 0cae5ded535c3a80aed94f119bbd4ee3ae284a65 ]

Currently, RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() checks the condition before checking
to see if lockdep is still enabled.  This is necessary to avoid the
false-positive splats fixed by commit 3066820034 ("rcu: Reject
RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() false positives").  However, the current state can
result in false-positive splats during early boot before lockdep is fully
initialized.  This commit therefore checks debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled()
both before and after checking the condition, thus avoiding both sets
of false-positive error reports.

62030a4915 rcu-tasks: Fix synchronize_rcu_tasks() VS zap_pid_ns_processes()
[ Upstream commit 28319d6dc5e2ffefa452c2377dd0f71621b5bff0 ]

RCU Tasks and PID-namespace unshare can interact in do_exit() in a
complicated circular dependency:

1) TASK A calls unshare(CLONE_NEWPID), this creates a new PID namespace
   that every subsequent child of TASK A will belong to. But TASK A
   doesn't itself belong to that new PID namespace.

2) TASK A forks() and creates TASK B. TASK A stays attached to its PID
   namespace (let's say PID_NS1) and TASK B is the first task belonging
   to the new PID namespace created by unshare()  (let's call it PID_NS2).

3) Since TASK B is the first task attached to PID_NS2, it becomes the
   PID_NS2 child reaper.

4) TASK A forks() again and creates TASK C which get attached to PID_NS2.
   Note how TASK C has TASK A as a parent (belonging to PID_NS1) but has
   TASK B (belonging to PID_NS2) as a pid_namespace child_reaper.

5) TASK B exits and since it is the child reaper for PID_NS2, it has to
   kill all other tasks attached to PID_NS2, and wait for all of them to
   die before getting reaped itself (zap_pid_ns_process()).

6) TASK A calls synchronize_rcu_tasks() which leads to
   synchronize_srcu(&tasks_rcu_exit_srcu).

7) TASK B is waiting for TASK C to get reaped. But TASK B is under a
   tasks_rcu_exit_srcu SRCU critical section (exit_notify() is between
   exit_tasks_rcu_start() and exit_tasks_rcu_finish()), blocking TASK A.

8) TASK C exits and since TASK A is its parent, it waits for it to reap
   TASK C, but it can't because TASK A waits for TASK B that waits for
   TASK C.

Pid_namespace semantics can hardly be changed at this point. But the
coverage of tasks_rcu_exit_srcu can be reduced instead.

The current task is assumed not to be concurrently reapable at this
stage of exit_notify() and therefore tasks_rcu_exit_srcu can be
temporarily relaxed without breaking its constraints, providing a way
out of the deadlock scenario.

18538248e5 rcu: Add functions to compare grace-period state values
This commit adds same_state_synchronize_rcu() and
same_state_synchronize_rcu_full() functions to compare grace-period state
values, for example, those obtained from get_state_synchronize_rcu()
and get_state_synchronize_rcu_full().  These functions allow small
structures to omit these state values by placing them in list headers for
lists containing structures with the same token value.  Presumably the
per-structure list pointers are the same ones used to link the structures
into whatever reader-accessible data structure was used.

This commit also adds both NUM_ACTIVE_RCU_POLL_OLDSTATE and
NUM_ACTIVE_RCU_POLL_FULL_OLDSTATE, which define the maximum number of
distinct unsigned long values and rcu_gp_oldstate values, respectively,
corresponding to not-yet-completed grace periods.  These values can be
used to size arrays of the list headers described above.

91a967fd69 rcu: Add full-sized polling for get_completed*() and poll_state*()
The get_completed_synchronize_rcu() and poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
APIs compress 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 first members of the full-state RCU
grace-period polling API, namely the get_completed_synchronize_rcu_full()
and poll_state_synchronize_rcu_full() functions.  These use up to three
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.

This commit gets rid of the task_struct structure's ->trc_reader_checked
field, making it instead be a bit within the task_struct structure's
existing ->trc_reader_special.b.need_qs field.  This commit also
atomically loads, stores, and checks the resulting combination of the
reader-checked and need-quiescent state flags.  This will in turn allow
significant simplification of the rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() function
as well as elimination of the trc_n_readers_need_end counter in later
commits.  These changes will in turn simplify later elimination of the
RCU Tasks Trace scan of the task list, which will make RCU Tasks Trace
grace periods less CPU-intensive.

414c12385d rcu: Provide a get_completed_synchronize_rcu() function
It is currently up to the caller to handle stale return values from
get_state_synchronize_rcu().  If poll_state_synchronize_rcu() returned
true once, a grace period has elapsed, regardless of the fact that counter
wrap might cause some future poll_state_synchronize_rcu() invocation to
return false.  For example, the caller might store a separate flag that
indicates whether some previous call to poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
determined that the relevant grace period had already ended.

This approach works, but it requires extra storage and is easy to get
wrong.  This commit therefore introduces a get_completed_synchronize_rcu()
that returns a cookie that causes poll_state_synchronize_rcu() to always
return true.  This already-completed cookie can be stored in place of the
cookie that previously caused poll_state_synchronize_rcu() to return true.
It can also be used to flag a given structure as not having been exposed
to readers, and thus not requiring a grace period to elapse.

This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods.

5d90070816 rcu-tasks: Make Tasks RCU account for userspace execution
The main Tasks RCU quiescent state is voluntary context switch.  However,
userspace execution is also a valid quiescent state, and is a valuable one
for userspace applications that spin repeatedly executing light-weight
non-sleeping system calls.  Currently, such an application can delay a
Tasks RCU grace period for many tens of seconds.

This commit therefore enlists the aid of the scheduler-clock interrupt to
provide a Tasks RCU quiescent state when it interrupted a task executing
in userspace.

24ba53017e rcu: Replace ________p1 and _________p1 with __UNIQUE_ID(rcu)
This commit replaces both ________p1 and _________p1 with __UNIQUE_ID(rcu),
and also adjusts the callers of the affected macros.

__UNIQUE_ID(rcu) will generate unique variable names during compilation,
which eliminates the need of ________p1 and _________p1 (both having 4
occurrences prior to the code change).  This also avoids the variable
name shadowing issue, or at least makes those wishing to cause shadowing
problems work much harder to do so.

The same idea is used for the min/max macros (commit 589a978 and commit
e9092d0).

925da92ba5 rcu: Avoid unneeded function call in rcu_read_unlock()
Since commit aa40c138cc ("rcu: Report QS for outermost PREEMPT=n
rcu_read_unlock() for strict GPs") the function rcu_read_unlock_strict()
is invoked by the inlined rcu_read_unlock() function.  However,
rcu_read_unlock_strict() is an empty function in production kernels,
which are built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=n.

There is a mention of rcu_read_unlock_strict() in the BPF verifier,
but this is in a deny-list, meaning that BPF does not care whether
rcu_read_unlock_strict() is ever called.

This commit therefore provides a slight performance improvement
by hoisting the check of CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD from
rcu_read_unlock_strict() into rcu_read_unlock(), thus avoiding the
pointless call to an empty function.
