Manager operations are currently governed by two mutexes -
pool->manager_arb and ->assoc_mutex. The former is used to decide who
gets to be the manager and the latter to exclude the actual manager
operations including creation and destruction of workers. Anyone who
grabs ->manager_arb must perform manager role; otherwise, the pool
might stall.
Grabbing ->assoc_mutex blocks everyone else from performing manager
operations but doesn't require the holder to perform manager duties as
it's merely blocking manager operations without becoming the manager.
Because the blocking was necessary when [dis]associating per-cpu
workqueues during CPU hotplug events, the latter was named
assoc_mutex. The mutex is scheduled to be used for other purposes, so
this patch gives it a more fitting generic name - manager_mutex - and
updates / adds comments to explain synchronization around the manager
role and operations.
This patch is pure rename / doc update.

Since 9e8cd2f589 ("workqueue: implement apply_workqueue_attrs()"),
init_and_link_pwq() may be called to initialize a new pool_workqueue
for a workqueue which is already online, but the function was setting
pwq->max_active to wq->saved_max_active without proper
synchronization.
Fix it by calling pwq_adjust_max_active() under proper locking instead
of manually setting max_active.
Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Rename pwq_set_max_active() to pwq_adjust_max_active() and move
pool_workqueue->max_active synchronization and max_active
determination logic into it.
The new function should be called with workqueue_lock held for stable
workqueue->saved_max_active, determines the current max_active value
the target pool_workqueue should be using from @wq->saved_max_active
and the state of the associated pool, and applies it with proper
synchronization.
The current two users - workqueue_set_max_active() and
thaw_workqueues() - are updated accordingly. In addition, the manual
freezing handling in __alloc_workqueue_key() and
freeze_workqueues_begin() are replaced with calls to
pwq_adjust_max_active().
This centralizes max_active handling so that it's less error-prone.

Implement a function which queries whether it currently is running off

Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
There are cases where workqueue users want to expose control knobs to
userland. e.g. Unbound workqueues with custom attributes are
scheduled to be used for writeback workers and depending on
configuration it can be useful to allow admins to tinker with the
priority or allowed CPUs.
This patch implements workqueue_sysfs_register(), which makes the
workqueue visible under /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/WQ_NAME. There
currently are two attributes common to both per-cpu and unbound pools
and extra attributes for unbound pools including nice level and
cpumask.
If alloc_workqueue*() is called with WQ_SYSFS,
workqueue_sysfs_register() is called automatically as part of
workqueue creation. This is the preferred method unless the workqueue
user wants to apply workqueue_attrs before making the workqueue
visible to userland.
v2: Disallow exposing ordered workqueues as ordered workqueues can't
be tuned in any way.
Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Adjusting max_active of or applying new workqueue_attrs to an ordered
workqueue breaks its ordering guarantee. The former is obvious. The
latter is because applying attrs creates a new pwq (pool_workqueue)
and there is no ordering constraint between the old and new pwqs.
Make apply_workqueue_attrs() and workqueue_set_max_active() trigger
WARN_ON() if those operations are requested on an ordered workqueue
and fail / ignore respectively.

Implement apply_workqueue_attrs() which applies workqueue_attrs to the
specified unbound workqueue by creating a new pwq (pool_workqueue)
linked to worker_pool with the specified attributes.
A new pwq is linked at the head of wq->pwqs instead of tail and
__queue_work() verifies that the first unbound pwq has positive refcnt
before choosing it for the actual queueing. This is to cover the case
where creation of a new pwq races with queueing. As base ref on a pwq
won't be dropped without making another pwq the first one,
__queue_work() is guaranteed to make progress and not add work item to
a dead pwq.
init_and_link_pwq() is updated to return the last first pwq the new
pwq replaced, which is put by apply_workqueue_attrs().
Note that apply_workqueue_attrs() is almost identical to unbound pwq
part of alloc_and_link_pwqs(). The only difference is that there is
no previous first pwq. apply_workqueue_attrs() is implemented to
handle such cases and replaces unbound pwq handling in
alloc_and_link_pwqs().

Because per-cpu workqueues have multiple pwqs (pool_workqueues) to
serve the CPUs, to guarantee that a single work item isn't queued on
one pwq while still executing another, __queue_work() takes a look at
the previous pool the target work item was on and if it's still
executing there, queue the work item on that pool.
To support changing workqueue_attrs on the fly, unbound workqueues too
will have multiple pwqs and thus need non-reentrancy test when
queueing. This patch modifies __queue_work() such that the reentrancy
test is performed regardless of the workqueue type.
per_cpu_ptr(wq->cpu_pwqs, cpu) used to be used to determine the
matching pwq for the last pool. This can't be used for unbound
workqueues and is replaced with worker->current_pwq which also happens
to be simpler.

Unbound pwqs (pool_workqueues) will be dynamically created and
destroyed with the scheduled unbound workqueue w/ custom attributes
support. This patch synchronizes pwq linking and unlinking against
flush_workqueue() so that its operation isn't disturbed by pwqs coming
and going.
Linking and unlinking a pwq into wq->pwqs is now protected also by
wq->flush_mutex and a new pwq's work_color is initialized to
wq->work_color during linking. This ensures that pwqs changes don't
disturb flush_workqueue() in progress and the new pwq's work coloring
stays in sync with the rest of the workqueue.
flush_mutex during unlinking isn't strictly necessary but it's simpler
to do it anyway.

Add pool_workqueue->refcnt along with get/put_pwq(). Both per-cpu and
unbound pwqs have refcnts and any work item inserted on a pwq
increments the refcnt which is dropped when the work item finishes.
For per-cpu pwqs the base ref is never dropped and destroy_workqueue()
frees the pwqs as before. For unbound ones, destroy_workqueue()
simply drops the base ref on the first pwq. When the refcnt reaches
zero, pwq_unbound_release_workfn() is scheduled on system_wq, which
unlinks the pwq, puts the associated pool and frees the pwq and wq as
necessary. This needs to be done from a work item as put_pwq() needs
to be protected by pool->lock but release can't happen with the lock
held - e.g. put_unbound_pool() involves blocking operations.
Unbound pool->locks are marked with lockdep subclas 1 as put_pwq()
will schedule the release work item on system_wq while holding the
unbound pool's lock and triggers recursive locking warning spuriously.
This will be used to implement dynamic creation and destruction of
unbound pwqs.

This patch makes unbound worker_pools reference counted and
dynamically created and destroyed as workqueues needing them come and
go. All unbound worker_pools are hashed on unbound_pool_hash which is
keyed by the content of worker_pool->attrs.
When an unbound workqueue is allocated, get_unbound_pool() is called
with the attributes of the workqueue. If there already is a matching
worker_pool, the reference count is bumped and the pool is returned.
If not, a new worker_pool with matching attributes is created and
returned.
When an unbound workqueue is destroyed, put_unbound_pool() is called
which decrements the reference count of the associated worker_pool.
If the refcnt reaches zero, the worker_pool is destroyed in sched-RCU
safe way.
Note that the standard unbound worker_pools - normal and highpri ones
with no specific cpumask affinity - are no longer created explicitly
during init_workqueues(). init_workqueues() only initializes
workqueue_attrs to be used for standard unbound pools -
unbound_std_wq_attrs[]. The pools are spawned on demand as workqueues
are created.
v2: - Comment added to init_worker_pool() explaining that @pool should
be in a condition which can be passed to put_unbound_pool() even
on failure.
- pool->refcnt reaching zero and the pool being removed from
unbound_pool_hash should be dynamic. pool->refcnt is converted
to int from atomic_t and now manipulated inside workqueue_lock.
- Removed an incorrect sanity check on nr_idle in
put_unbound_pool() which may trigger spuriously.

are updated to follow worker_pool->attrs instead of determining them
from other characteristics of the worker_pool, and init_workqueues()

pools.
Note that create_worker() is updated to always perform set_user_nice()
and use set_cpus_allowed_ptr() combined with manual assertion of
PF_THREAD_BOUND instead of kthread_bind(). This simplifies handling
random attributes without affecting the outcome.
