preempt_mask.h defines all the preempt_count semantics and related
symbols: preempt, softirq, hardirq, nmi, preempt active, need resched,
etc...
preempt.h defines the accessors and mutators of preempt_count.
But there is a messy dependency game around those two header files:
* preempt_mask.h includes preempt.h in order to access preempt_count()
* preempt_mask.h defines all preempt_count semantic and symbols
except PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED that is needed by asm/preempt.h
Thus we need to define it from preempt.h, right before including
asm/preempt.h, instead of defining it to preempt_mask.h with the
other preempt_count symbols. Therefore the preempt_count semantics
happen to be spread out.
* We plan to introduce preempt_active_[enter,exit]() to consolidate
preempt_schedule*() code. But we'll need to access both preempt_count
mutators (preempt_count_add()) and preempt_count symbols
(PREEMPT_ACTIVE, PREEMPT_OFFSET). The usual place to define preempt
operations is in preempt.h but then we'll need symbols in
preempt_mask.h which already includes preempt.h. So we end up with
a ressource circle dependency.
Lets merge preempt_mask.h into preempt.h to solve these dependency issues.
This way we gather semantic symbols and operation definition of
preempt_count in a single file.
This is a dumb copy-paste merge. Further merge re-arrangments are
performed in a subsequent patch to ease review.

synchronize_irq() waits for hard irq and threaded handlers to complete
before returning. For some special cases we only need to make sure
that the hard interrupt part of the irq line is not in progress when
we disabled the - possibly shared - interrupt at the device level.
A proper use case for this was provided by Russell. The sdhci driver
requires some irq triggered functions to be run in thread context. The
current implementation of the thread context is a sdio private kthread
construct, which has quite some shortcomings. These can be avoided
when the thread is directly associated to the device interrupt via the
generic threaded irq infrastructure.
Though there is a corner case related to run time power management
where one side disables the device interrupts at the device level and
needs to make sure, that an already running hard interrupt handler has
completed before proceeding further. Though that hard interrupt
handler might wake the associated thread, which in turn can request
the runtime PM to reenable the device. Using synchronize_irq() leads
to an immediate deadlock of the irq thread waiting for the PM lock and
the synchronize_irq() waiting for the irq thread to complete.
Due to the fact that it is sufficient for this case to ensure that no
hard irq handler is executing a new function which avoids the check
for the thread is required.
Add a function, which just monitors the hard irq parts and ignores the
threaded handlers.

Rewrite the preempt_count macros in order to extract the 3 basic
preempt_count value modifiers:
__preempt_count_add()
__preempt_count_sub()
and the new:
__preempt_count_dec_and_test()
And since we're at it anyway, replace the unconventional
$op_preempt_count names with the more conventional preempt_count_$op.
Since these basic operators are equivalent to the previous _notrace()
variants, do away with the _notrace() versions.

In order to use static keys with vtime APIs, we'll need to
add static keys headers to vtime.h
hardirq.h then becomes a problem because it needs vtime.h
for irqtime accounting in irq_enter/irq_exit, but it's
often included just to get the irq mask definitions in the
task preempt_count field and the APIs that come along:
in_interrupt(), in_hardirq(), etc...
Some very low level arch headers sometimes need these masks
and APIs such as arch/m68k/include/asm/irqflags.h for example.
But they don't want to include hardirq.h if vtime.h, jump_label.h
and even workqueue.h come along. Including such bloated high
level header from arch headers can quickly result in circular
headers dependency that crash the build.
So let's split hardirq.h in two parts:
* preempt_mask.h that gathers all the preempt_count definitions
and the APIs associated. This one is considered low level and can
be safely included anywhere.
* hardirq.h that includes the previous one. It defines the irq
entry/exit APIs.
To avoid future circular headers dependencies, the preempt_mask.h
inclusion can replace hardirq.h on files that don't implement irq
low level handlers but just need the atomic/context check APIs.

TINY_PREEMPT_RCU adds significant code and complexity, but does not
offer commensurate benefits. People currently using TINY_PREEMPT_RCU
can get much better memory footprint with TINY_RCU, or, if they really
need preemptible RCU, they can use TREE_PREEMPT_RCU with a relatively
minor degradation in memory footprint. Please note that this move
has been widely publicized on LKML (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/12/545)

The IRQ_EXIT_OFFSET trick was used to make sure the irq
doesn't get preempted after we substract the HARDIRQ_OFFSET
until we are entirely done with any code in irq_exit().
This workaround was necessary because some archs may call
irq_exit() with irqs enabled and there is still some code
in the end of this function that is not covered by the
HARDIRQ_OFFSET but want to stay non-preemptible.
Now that irq are always disabled in irq_exit(), the whole code
is guaranteed not to be preempted. We can thus remove this hack.

When function tracing with either debug locks enabled or tracing
preempt disabled, the add_preempt_count() is traced. This is an
issue with lockdep and function tracing. As function tracing
can disable interrupts, and lockdep records that change,
lockdep may not be able to handle this recursion if it happens from
an NMI context.
The first thing that an NMI does is:
#define nmi_enter() \
do { \
ftrace_nmi_enter(); \
BUG_ON(in_nmi()); \
add_preempt_count(NMI_OFFSET + HARDIRQ_OFFSET); \
lockdep_off(); \
rcu_nmi_enter(); \
trace_hardirq_enter(); \
} while (0)
When the add_preempt_count() is traced, and the tracing callback
disables interrupts, it will jump into the lockdep code. There's
some places in lockdep that can't handle this re-entrance, and
causes lockdep to fail.
As the lockdep_off() (and lockdep_on) is a simple:
void lockdep_off(void)
{
current->lockdep_recursion++;
}
and is never traced, it can be called first in nmi_enter()
and lockdep_on() last in nmi_exit().

With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING, when vtime_account()
is called in irq entry/exit, we perform a check on the
context: if we are interrupting the idle task we
account the pending cputime to idle, otherwise account
to system time or its sub-areas: tsk->stime, hardirq time,
softirq time, ...
However this check for idle only concerns the hardirq entry
and softirq entry:
* Hardirq may directly interrupt the idle task, in which case
we need to flush the pending CPU time to idle.
* The idle task may be directly interrupted by a softirq if
it calls local_bh_enable(). There is probably no such call
in any idle task but we need to cover every case. Ksoftirqd
is not concerned because the idle time is flushed on context
switch and softirq in the end of hardirq have the idle time
already flushed from the hardirq entry.
In the other cases we always account to system/irq time:
* On hardirq exit we account the time to hardirq time.
* On softirq exit we account the time to softirq time.
To optimize this and avoid the indirect call to vtime_account()
and the checks it performs, specialize the vtime irq APIs and
only perform the check on irq entry. Irq exit can directly call
vtime_account_system().
CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING behaviour doesn't change and directly
maps to its own vtime_account() implementation. One may want
to take benefits from the new APIs to optimize irq time accounting
as well in the future.

Use a naming based on vtime as a prefix for virtual based
cputime accounting APIs:
- account_system_vtime() -> vtime_account()
- account_switch_vtime() -> vtime_task_switch()
It makes it easier to allow for further declension such
as vtime_account_system(), vtime_account_idle(), ... if we
want to find out the context we account to from generic code.
This also make it better to know on which subsystem these APIs
refer to.

Earlier versions of RCU used the scheduling-clock tick to detect idleness
by checking for the idle task, but handled idleness differently for
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y. But there are now a number of uses of RCU read-side
critical sections in the idle task, for example, for tracing. A more
fine-grained detection of idleness is therefore required.
This commit presses the old dyntick-idle code into full-time service,
so that rcu_idle_enter(), previously known as rcu_enter_nohz(), is
always invoked at the beginning of an idle loop iteration. Similarly,
rcu_idle_exit(), previously known as rcu_exit_nohz(), is always invoked
at the end of an idle-loop iteration. This allows the idle task to
use RCU everywhere except between consecutive rcu_idle_enter() and
rcu_idle_exit() calls, in turn allowing architecture maintainers to
specify exactly where in the idle loop that RCU may be used.
Because some of the userspace upcall uses can result in what looks
to RCU like half of an interrupt, it is not possible to expect that
the irq_enter() and irq_exit() hooks will give exact counts. This
patch therefore expands the ->dynticks_nesting counter to 64 bits
and uses two separate bitfields to count process/idle transitions
and interrupt entry/exit transitions. It is presumed that userspace
upcalls do not happen in the idle loop or from usermode execution
(though usermode might do a system call that results in an upcall).
The counter is hard-reset on each process/idle transition, which
avoids the interrupt entry/exit error from accumulating. Overflow
is avoided by the 64-bitness of the ->dyntick_nesting counter.
This commit also adds warnings if a non-idle task asks RCU to enter
idle state (and these checks will need some adjustment before applying
Frederic's OS-jitter patches (http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/7/246).
In addition, validation of ->dynticks and ->dynticks_nesting is added.

This really isn't the right thing to do, and strictly speaking we should
have the BKL depth count in the thread info right next to the preempt
count. The two really do go together.
However, since that would involve a patch to all architectures, and the
BKL is finally going away, it's simply not worth the effort to do the
RightThing(tm). Just re-instate the <linux/sched.h> include that we
used to get accidentally from the smp_lock.h one.

Arnd Bergmann did an automated scripting run to find left-over instances
of <linux/smp_lock.h>, and had made it trigger it on the normal BKL use
of lock_kernel and unlock_lernel (and apparently release_kernel_lock and
reacquire_kernel_lock too, used by the scheduler).
That resulted in commit 451a3c24b0 ("BKL: remove extraneous #include
<smp_lock.h>").
However, hardirq.h was the only remaining user of the old
'kernel_locked()' interface, and Arnd's script hadn't checked for that.
So depending on your configuration and what header files had been
included, you would get errors like "implicit declaration of function
'kernel_locked'" during the build.
The right fix is not to just re-instate the smp_lock.h include - it is
to just remove 'kernel_locked()' entirely, since the only use was this
one special low-level detail. Just make hardirq.h do it directly.
In fact this simplifies and clarifies the code, because some trivial
analysis makes it clear that hardirq.h only ever used _one_ of the two
definitions of kernel_locked(), so we can remove the other one entirely.
