__raise_softirq_irqoff() must be called with interrupts disabled to protect
the per CPU softirq pending state update against an interrupt and soft
interrupt handling on return from interrupt.
Add a lockdep assertion to validate the calling convention.

Pull tasklets API update from Kees Cook:
"These are the infrastructure updates needed to support converting the
tasklet API to something more modern (and hopefully for removal
further down the road).
There is a 300-patch series waiting in the wings to get set out to
subsystem maintainers, but these changes need to be present in the
kernel first. Since this has some treewide changes, I carried this
series for -next instead of paining Thomas with it in -tip, but it's
got his Ack.
This is similar to the timer_struct modernization from a while back,
but not nearly as messy (I hope). :)
- Prepare for tasklet API modernization (Romain Perier, Allen Pais,
Kees Cook)"
* tag 'tasklets-v5.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
tasklet: Introduce new initialization API
treewide: Replace DECLARE_TASKLET() with DECLARE_TASKLET_OLD()
usb: gadget: udc: Avoid tasklet passing a global
Nowadays, modern kernel subsystems that use callbacks pass the data
structure associated with a given callback as argument to the callback.
The tasklet subsystem remains one which passes an arbitrary unsigned
long to the callback function. This has several problems:
- This keeps an extra field for storing the argument in each tasklet
data structure, it bloats the tasklet_struct structure with a redundant
.data field
- No type checking can be performed on this argument. Instead of
using container_of() like other callback subsystems, it forces callbacks
to do explicit type cast of the unsigned long argument into the required
object type.
- Buffer overflows can overwrite the .func and the .data field, so
an attacker can easily overwrite the function and its first argument
to whatever it wants.
Add a new tasklet initialization API, via DECLARE_TASKLET() and
tasklet_setup(), which will replace the existing ones.
This work is greatly inspired by the timer_struct conversion series,
see commit e99e88a9d2 ("treewide: setup_timer() -> timer_setup()")
To avoid problems with both -Wcast-function-type (which is enabled in
the kernel via -Wextra is several subsystems), and with mismatched
function prototypes when build with Control Flow Integrity enabled,
this adds the "use_callback" member to let the tasklet caller choose
which union member to call through. Once all old API uses are removed,
this and the .data member will be removed as well. (On 64-bit this does
not grow the struct size as the new member fills the hole after atomic_t,
which is also "int" sized.)

Currently all IRQ-tracking state is in task_struct, this means that
task_struct needs to be defined before we use it.
Especially for lockdep_assert_irq*() this can lead to header-hell.
Move the hardirq state into per-cpu variables to avoid the task_struct
dependency.

When a CPU is unplugged the kernel threads of this CPU are parked (see
smpboot_park_threads()). kthread_park() is used to mark each thread as
parked and wake it up, so it can complete the process of parking itselfs
(see smpboot_thread_fn()).
If local softirqs are pending on interrupt exit invoke_softirq() is called
to process the softirqs, however it skips processing when the softirq
kernel thread of the local CPU is scheduled to run. The softirq kthread is
one of the threads that is parked when a CPU is unplugged. Parking the
kthread wakes it up, however only to complete the parking process, not to
process the pending softirqs. Hence processing of softirqs at the end of an
interrupt is skipped, but not done elsewhere, which can result in warnings
about pending softirqs when a CPU is unplugged:
/sys/devices/system/cpu # echo 0 > cpu4/online
[ ... ] NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02
[ ... ] NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 202
[ ... ] CPU4: shutdown
[ ... ] psci: CPU4 killed.
Don't skip processing of softirqs at the end of an interrupt when the
softirq thread of the CPU is parking.

Now that the main RCU API knows about softirq disabling and softirq's
quiescent states, the RCU-bh update code can be dispensed with.
This commit therefore removes the RCU-bh update-side implementation and
defines RCU-bh's update-side API in terms of that of either RCU-preempt or
RCU-sched, depending on the setting of the CONFIG_PREEMPT Kconfig option.
In kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y this has the knock-on effect
of reducing by one the number of rcuo kthreads per CPU.

One necessary step towards consolidating the three flavors of RCU is to
make sure that the resulting consolidated "one flavor to rule them all"
correctly handles networking denial-of-service attacks. One thing that
allows RCU-bh to do so is that __do_softirq() invokes rcu_bh_qs() every
so often, and so something similar has to happen for consolidated RCU.
This must be done carefully. For example, if a preemption-disabled
region of code takes an interrupt which does softirq processing before
returning, consolidated RCU must ignore the resulting rcu_bh_qs()
invocations -- preemption is still disabled, and that means an RCU
reader for the consolidated flavor.
This commit therefore creates a new rcu_softirq_qs() that is called only
from the ksoftirqd task, thus avoiding the interrupted-a-preempted-region
problem. This new rcu_softirq_qs() function invokes rcu_sched_qs(),
rcu_preempt_qs(), and rcu_preempt_deferred_qs(). The latter call handles
any deferred quiescent states.
Note that __do_softirq() still invokes rcu_bh_qs(). It will continue to
do so until a later stage of cleanup when the RCU-bh flavor is removed.

[ paulmck: Fix !SMP issue located by kbuild test robot. ]
The full nohz tick is reprogrammed in irq_exit() only if the exit is not in
a nesting interrupt. This stands as an optimization: whether a hardirq or a
softirq is interrupted, the tick is going to be reprogrammed when necessary
at the end of the inner interrupt, with even potential new updates on the
timer queue.
When soft interrupts are interrupted, it's assumed that they are executing
on the tail of an interrupt return. In that case tick_nohz_irq_exit() is
called after softirq processing to take care of the tick reprogramming.
But the assumption is wrong: softirqs can be processed inline as well, ie:
outside of an interrupt, like in a call to local_bh_enable() or from
ksoftirqd.
Inline softirqs don't reprogram the tick once they are done, as opposed to
interrupt tail softirq processing. So if a tick interrupts an inline
softirq processing, the next timer will neither be reprogrammed from the
interrupting tick's irq_exit() nor after the interrupted softirq
processing. This situation may leave the tick unprogrammed while timers are
armed.
To fix this, simply keep reprogramming the tick even if a softirq has been
interrupted. That can be optimized further, but for now correctness is more
important.
Note that new timers enqueued in nohz_full mode after a softirq gets
interrupted will still be handled just fine through self-IPIs triggered by
the timer code.

Way back in 4.9, we committed 4cd13c21b2 ("softirq: Let ksoftirqd do
its job"), and ever since we've had small nagging issues with it. For
example, we've had:
1ff688209e ("watchdog: core: make sure the watchdog_worker is not deferred")
8d5755b3f7 ("watchdog: softdog: fire watchdog even if softirqs do not get to run")
217f697436 ("net: busy-poll: allow preemption in sk_busy_loop()")
all of which worked around some of the effects of that commit.
The DVB people have also complained that the commit causes excessive USB
URB latencies, which seems to be due to the USB code using tasklets to
schedule USB traffic. This seems to be an issue mainly when already
living on the edge, but waiting for ksoftirqd to handle it really does
seem to cause excessive latencies.
Now Hanna Hawa reports that this issue isn't just limited to USB URB and
DVB, but also causes timeout problems for the Marvell SoC team:
"I'm facing kernel panic issue while running raid 5 on sata disks
connected to Macchiatobin (Marvell community board with Armada-8040
SoC with 4 ARMv8 cores of CA72) Raid 5 built with Marvell DMA engine
and async_tx mechanism (ASYNC_TX_DMA [=y]); the DMA driver (mv_xor_v2)
uses a tasklet to clean the done descriptors from the queue"
The latency problem causes a panic:
mv_xor_v2 f0400000.xor: dma_sync_wait: timeout!
Kernel panic - not syncing: async_tx_quiesce: DMA error waiting for transaction
We've discussed simply just reverting the original commit entirely, and
also much more involved solutions (with per-softirq threads etc). This
patch is intentionally stupid and fairly limited, because the issue
still remains, and the other solutions either got sidetracked or had
other issues.
We should probably also consider the timer softirqs to be synchronous
and not be delayed to ksoftirqd (since they were the issue with the
earlier watchdog problems), but that should be done as a separate patch.
This does only the tasklet cases.

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Consolidation of softirq pending:
The softirq mask and its accessors/mutators have many implementations
scattered around many architectures. Most do the same things
consisting in a field in a per-cpu struct (often irq_cpustat_t)
accessed through per-cpu ops. We can provide instead a generic
efficient version that most of them can use. In fact s390 is the only
exception because the field is stored in lowcore.
- Support for level!?! triggered MSI (ARM)
Over the past couple of years, we've seen some SoCs coming up with
ways of signalling level interrupts using a new flavor of MSIs, where
the MSI controller uses two distinct messages: one that raises a
virtual line, and one that lowers it. The target MSI controller is in
charge of maintaining the state of the line.
This allows for a much simplified HW signal routing (no need to have
hundreds of discrete lines to signal level interrupts if you already
have a memory bus), but results in a departure from the current idea
the kernel has of MSIs.
- Support for Meson-AXG GPIO irqchip
- Large stm32 irqchip rework (suspend/resume, hierarchical domains)
