Although commit 669de8bda8 ("kernel/workqueue: Use dynamic lockdep keys
for workqueues") unregisters dynamic lockdep keys when a workqueue is
destroyed, a side effect of that commit is that all stack traces
associated with the lockdep key are leaked when a workqueue is destroyed.
Fix this by storing each unique stack trace once. Other changes in this
patch are:
- Use NULL instead of { .nr_entries = 0 } to represent 'no trace'.
- Store a pointer to a stack trace in struct lock_class and struct
lock_list instead of storing 'nr_entries' and 'offset'.
This patch avoids that the following program triggers the "BUG:
MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES too low!" complaint:
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main()
{
for (;;) {
int fd = open("/dev/infiniband/rdma_cm", O_RDWR);
close(fd);
}
}

Convert the locking documents to ReST and add them to the
kernel development book where it belongs.
Most of the stuff here is just to make Sphinx to properly
parse the text file, as they're already in good shape,
not requiring massive changes in order to be parsed.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- rwsem scalability improvements, phase #2, by Waiman Long, which are
rather impressive:
"On a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system with 40 reader
and writer locking threads, the min/mean/max locking operations
done in a 5-second testing window before the patchset were:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/1,808/1,810
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/50,344/151,255
After the patchset, they became:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 30,057/31,359/32,741
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 94,466/95,845/97,098"
There's a lot of changes to the locking implementation that makes
it similar to qrwlock, including owner handoff for more fair
locking.
Another microbenchmark shows how across the spectrum the
improvements are:
"With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the
total locking rates (in kops/s) on a 2-socket Skylake system
with equal numbers of readers and writers (mixed) before and
after this patchset were:
# of Threads Before Patch After Patch
------------ ------------ -----------
2 2,618 4,193
4 1,202 3,726
8 802 3,622
16 729 3,359
32 319 2,826
64 102 2,744"
The changes are extensive and the patch-set has been through
several iterations addressing various locking workloads. There
might be more regressions, but unless they are pathological I
believe we want to use this new implementation as the baseline
going forward.
- jump-label optimizations by Daniel Bristot de Oliveira: the primary
motivation was to remove IPI disturbance of isolated RT-workload
CPUs, which resulted in the implementation of batched jump-label
updates. Beyond the improvement of the real-time characteristics
kernel, in one test this patchset improved static key update
overhead from 57 msecs to just 1.4 msecs - which is a nice speedup
as well.
- atomic64_t cross-arch type cleanups by Mark Rutland: over the last
~10 years of atomic64_t existence the various types used by the
APIs only had to be self-consistent within each architecture -
which means they became wildly inconsistent across architectures.
Mark puts and end to this by reworking all the atomic64
implementations to use 's64' as the base type for atomic64_t, and
to ensure that this type is consistently used for parameters and
return values in the API, avoiding further problems in this area.
- A large set of small improvements to lockdep by Yuyang Du: type
cleanups, output cleanups, function return type and othr cleanups
all around the place.
- A set of percpu ops cleanups and fixes by Peter Zijlstra.
- Misc other changes - please see the Git log for more details"

All callers of lockdep_assert_held_exclusive() use it to verify the
correct locking state of either a semaphore (ldisc_sem in tty,
mmap_sem for perf events, i_rwsem of inode for dax) or rwlock by
apparmor. Thus it makes sense to rename _exclusive to _write since
that's the semantics callers care. Additionally there is already
lockdep_assert_held_read(), which this new naming is more consistent with.

held_lock->class_idx is used to point to the class of the held lock. The
index is shifted by 1 to make index 0 mean no class, which results in class
index shifting back and forth but is not worth doing so.
The reason is: (1) there will be no "no-class" held_lock to begin with, and
(2) index 0 seems to be used for error checking, but if something wrong
indeed happened, the index can't be counted on to distinguish it as that
something won't set the class_idx to 0 on purpose to tell us it is wrong.
Therefore, change the index to start from 0. This saves a lot of
back-and-forth shifts and a class slot back to lock_classes.
Since index 0 is now used for lock class, we change the initial chain key to
-1 to avoid key collision, which is due to the fact that __jhash_mix(0, 0, 0) = 0.
Actually, the initial chain key can be any arbitrary value other than 0.
In addition, a bitmap is maintained to keep track of the used lock classes,
and we check the validity of the held lock against that bitmap.

As the 'struct pin_cookie' structure is empty in this configuration,
there is no need to initialize it for correctness, but it also
does not hurt to set it to an empty structure, so do that to

A shortcoming of the current lockdep implementation is that it requires
lock keys to be allocated statically. That forces all instances of lock
objects that occur in a given data structure to share a lock key. Since
lock dependency analysis groups lock objects per key sharing lock keys
can cause false positive lockdep reports. Make it possible to avoid
such false positive reports by allowing lock keys to be allocated
dynamically. Require that dynamically allocated lock keys are
registered before use by calling lockdep_register_key(). Complain about
attempts to register the same lock key pointer twice without calling
lockdep_unregister_key() between successive registration calls.
The purpose of the new lock_keys_hash[] data structure that keeps
track of all dynamic keys is twofold:
- Verify whether the lockdep_register_key() and lockdep_unregister_key()
functions are used correctly.
- Avoid that lockdep_init_map() complains when encountering a dynamically
allocated key.

Instead of leaving lock classes that are no longer in use in the
lock_classes array, reuse entries from that array that are no longer in
use. Maintain a linked list of free lock classes with list head
'free_lock_class'. Only add freed lock classes to the free_lock_classes
list after a grace period to avoid that a lock_classes[] element would
be reused while an RCU reader is accessing it. Since the lockdep
selftests run in a context where sleeping is not allowed and since the
selftests require that lock resetting/zapping works with debug_locks
off, make the behavior of lockdep_free_key_range() and
lockdep_reset_lock() depend on whether or not these are called from
the context of the lockdep selftests.
Thanks to Peter for having shown how to modify get_pending_free()
such that that function does not have to sleep.

A sizable portion of the CPU cycles spent on the __lock_acquire() is used
up by the atomic increment of the class->ops stat counter. By taking it out
from the lock_class structure and changing it to a per-cpu per-lock-class
counter, we can reduce the amount of cacheline contention on the class
structure when multiple CPUs are trying to acquire locks of the same
class simultaneously.
To limit the increase in memory consumption because of the percpu nature
of that counter, it is now put back under the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP
config option. So the memory consumption increase will only occur if
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP is defined. The lock_class structure, however,
is reduced in size by 16 bytes on 64-bit archs after ops removal and
a minor restructuring of the fields.
This patch also fixes a bug in the increment code as the counter is of
the 'unsigned long' type, but atomic_inc() was used to increment it.

Joel Fernandes created a nice patch that cleaned up the duplicate hooks used
by lockdep and irqsoff latency tracer. It made both use tracepoints. But it
caused lockdep to trigger several false positives. We have not figured out
why yet, but removing lockdep from using the trace event hooks and just call
its helper functions directly (like it use to), makes the problem go away.
This is a partial revert of the clean up patch c3bc8fd637 ("tracing:
Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage") that adds direct
calls for lockdep, but also keeps most of the clean up done to get rid of
the horrible preprocessor if statements.
