git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
- Move sysctls out of the kern_table array
This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective
subsystems. Only 5 (out of the original 50) will remain in
kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle either sysctl or common arch
variables.
By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain
control over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and
reducing the likelihood of merge conflicts.

Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented
in the check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to
automatically identify if documentation is missing.

The synchronization of CPU offlining with GP initialization is confusing
to put it mildly (rightfully so as the issue it deals with is complex).
Recent discussions brought up a question -- what prevents the
rcu_implicit_dyntick_qs() from warning about QS reports for offline
CPUs (missing QS reports for offline CPUs causing indefinite hangs).
QS reporting for now-offline CPUs should only happen from:
- gp_init()
- rcutree_cpu_report_dead()
Add some documentation on this and refer to it from comments in the code
explaining how QS reporting is not missed when these functions are
concurrently running.
I referred heavily to this post [1] about the need for the ofl_lock.

We observed a regression in our customer’s environment after enabling
CONFIG_LAZY_RCU. In the Android Update Engine scenario, where ioctl() is
used heavily, we found that callbacks queued via call_rcu_hurry (such as
percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu) can sometimes be delayed by up to 5
seconds before execution. This occurs because the new grace period does
not start immediately after the previous one completes.
The root cause is that the wake_nocb_gp_defer() function now checks
"rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup" instead of "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup". On CPUs
that are not rcuog, "rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup" may always be
RCU_NOCB_WAKE_NOT. This can cause "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup" to be
downgraded and the "rdp_gp->nocb_timer" to be postponed by up to 10
seconds, delaying the execution of hurry RCU callbacks.
The trace log of one scenario we encountered is as follow:
// previous GP ends at this point
rcu_preempt [000] d..1. 137.240210: rcu_grace_period: rcu_preempt 8369 end

This patch changes the condition to check "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup" in
the lazy path. This prevents an already scheduled "rdp_gp->nocb_timer"
from being postponed and avoids overwriting "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup"
when it is not RCU_NOCB_WAKE_NOT.

Currently, SRCU-fast grace periods use synchronize_rcu() to provide the
needed ordering with readers, even given an expedited SRCU-fast grace
period, which isn't all that expedited. This commit therefore instead
uses synchronize_rcu_expedited() if there is an expedited SRCU-fast
grace period in flight.
Of course, given an non-expedited SRCU-fast grace period blocked in
synchronize_rcu(), a later request for an expedited SRCU-fast grace
period will wait for that synchronize_rcu() to return before switching
to use of synchronize_rcu_expedited(). If this turns out to be a real
problem for a production workload, we can increase the complexity (but
likely also degrade the energy efficiency) to speed things up further.

Because SRCU-lite is being replaced by SRCU-fast, this commit removes
support for SRCU-lite from rcutorture.c
Both SRCU-lite and SRCU-fast provide faster readers by dropping the
smp_mb() call from their lock and unlock primitives, but incur a pair
of added RCU grace periods during the SRCU grace period. There is a
trivial mapping from the SRCU-lite API to that of SRCU-fast, so there
should be no transition issues.

During rcu_read_unlock_special(), if this happens during irq_exit(), we
can lockup if an IPI is issued. This is because the IPI itself triggers
the irq_exit() path causing a recursive lock up.
This is precisely what Xiongfeng found when invoking a BPF program on
the trace_tick_stop() tracepoint As shown in the trace below. Fix by
managing the irq_work state correctly.
irq_exit()
__irq_exit_rcu()
/* in_hardirq() returns false after this */
preempt_count_sub(HARDIRQ_OFFSET)
tick_irq_exit()
tick_nohz_irq_exit()
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
trace_tick_stop() /* a bpf prog is hooked on this trace point */
__bpf_trace_tick_stop()
bpf_trace_run2()
rcu_read_unlock_special()
/* will send a IPI to itself */
irq_work_queue_on(&rdp->defer_qs_iw, rdp->cpu);
A simple reproducer can also be obtained by doing the following in
tick_irq_exit(). It will hang on boot without the patch:
static inline void tick_irq_exit(void)
{
+ rcu_read_lock();
+ WRITE_ONCE(current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs, true);
+ rcu_read_unlock();

Automatically enable the rcu_normal_wake_from_gp parameter on
systems with a small number of CPUs. The activation threshold
is set to 16 CPUs.
This helps to reduce a latency of normal synchronize_rcu() API
by waking up GP-waiters earlier and decoupling synchronize_rcu()
callers from regular callback handling.
A benchmark running 64 parallel jobs(system with 64 CPUs) invoking
synchronize_rcu() demonstrates a notable latency reduction with the
setting enabled.

On kernels built with CONFIG_IRQ_WORK=y, when rcu_read_unlock() is
invoked within an interrupts-disabled region of code [1], it will invoke
rcu_read_unlock_special(), which uses an irq-work handler to force the
system to notice when the RCU read-side critical section actually ends.
That end won't happen until interrupts are enabled at the soonest.
In some kernels, such as those booted with rcutree.use_softirq=y, the
irq-work handler is used unconditionally.
The per-CPU rcu_data structure's ->defer_qs_iw_pending field is
updated by the irq-work handler and is both read and updated by
rcu_read_unlock_special(). This resulted in the following KCSAN splat:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem is that irq-work handlers run with interrupts enabled, which
means that rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() could be interrupted,
and that interrupt handler might contain an RCU read-side critical
section, which might invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(). In the strict
KCSAN mode of operation used by RCU, this constitutes a data race on
the ->defer_qs_iw_pending field.
This commit therefore disables interrupts across the portion of the
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() that updates the ->defer_qs_iw_pending
field. This suffices because this handler is not a fast path.

In the preparation stage of CPU online, if the corresponding
the rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread does not exist, will be created,
there is a situation where the rdp's rcuop kthreads creation fails,
and then de-offload this CPU's rdp, does not assign this CPU's
rdp->nocb_cb_kthread pointer, but this rdp's->nocb_gp_rdp and
rdp's->rdp_gp->nocb_gp_kthread is still valid.
This will cause the subsequent re-offload operation of this offline
CPU, which will pass the conditional check and the kthread_unpark()
will access invalid rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread pointer.
This commit therefore use rdp's->nocb_gp_kthread instead of
rdp_gp's->nocb_gp_kthread for safety check.

It is not possible to send an IPI to a dying CPU that has passed the
CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU stage. Remaining unhandled IPIs are handled later at
CPUHP_AP_SMPCFD_DYING stage by stop machine. This is the last
opportunity for RCU exp handler to request an expedited quiescent state.
And the upcoming final context switch between stop machine and idle must
have reported the requested context switch.
Therefore, it should not be possible to observe a pending requested
expedited quiescent state when RCU finally stops watching the outgoing
CPU. Once IPIs aren't possible anymore, the QS for the target CPU will

A CPU coming online checks for an ongoing grace period and reports
a quiescent state accordingly if needed. This special treatment that
shortcuts the expedited IPI finds its origin as an optimization purpose
on the following commit:
338b0f760e84 (rcu: Better hotplug handling for synchronize_sched_expedited()
The point is to avoid an IPI while waiting for a CPU to become online
or failing to become offline.
However this is pointless and even error prone for several reasons:
* If the CPU has been seen offline in the first round scanning offline
and idle CPUs, no IPI is even tried and the quiescent state is
reported on behalf of the CPU.
* This means that if the IPI fails, the CPU just became offline. So
it's unlikely to become online right away, unless the cpu hotplug
operation failed and rolled back, which is a rare event that can
wait a jiffy for a new IPI to be issued.
* But then the "optimization" applying on failing CPU hotplug down only
applies to !PREEMPT_RCU.
* This force reports a quiescent state even if ->cpu_no_qs.b.exp is not
set. As a result it can race with remote QS reports on the same rdp.
Fortunately it happens to be OK but an accident is waiting to happen.
For all those reasons, remove this optimization that doesn't look worthy
to keep around.

A full memory barrier in the RCU-PREEMPT task unblock path advertizes
to order the context switch (or rather the accesses prior to
rcu_read_unlock()) with the expedited grace period fastpath.
However the grace period can not complete without the rnp calling into
rcu_report_exp_rnp() with the node locked. This reports the quiescent
state in a fully ordered fashion against updater's accesses thanks to:
1) The READ-SIDE smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() barrier across nodes
locking while propagating QS up to the root.
2) The UPDATE-SIDE smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() barrier while holding the
the root rnp to wait/check for the GP completion.
3) The (perhaps redundant given step 1) and 2)) smp_mb() in rcu_seq_end()
before the grace period completes.
This makes the explicit barrier in this place superfluous. Therefore
remove it as it is confusing.

The nreaders and loops variables are exposed as module parameters, which,
in certain combinations, can lead to multiplication overflow.
Besides, loops parameter is defined as long, while through the code is
used as int, which can cause truncation on 64-bit kernels and possible
zeroes where they shouldn't appear.
Since code uses result of multiplication as int anyway, it only makes sense
to replace loops with int. Multiplication overflow check is also added
due to possible multiplication between two very big numbers.

Trivial RCU is a textbook implementation that is not used in the
Linux kernel, but tested to keep textbooks (and presentations) honest.
It is so trivial that it cannot deal with either CPU hotplug or external
migration from one CPU to another. This commit therefore splats whenever
onoff_interval or shuffle_interval are non-zero, and then sets them to
zero in order to avoid false-positive failures.
Those wishing to set these module parameters in order to force failures
in Trivial RCU are free to revert this commit. Just don't expect me to
be sympathetic to any resulting bug reports!

from hardware interrupt handlers (for example, HRTIMER_MODE_HARD hrtimer
handlers) in kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_CHK_RDR_STATE=y,
which is rarely used but sometimes extremely useful. This preparation
involves taking early exits if in_hardirq(), and, while we are in the
area, a very early exit if in_nmi().
This means that a number of insoftirq parameters are no longer needed,
but that is the subject of a later commit.

Testing of rcutorture's SRCU-P scenario on a large arm64 system resulted
in rcu_torture_writer() forward-progress failures, but these same tests
passed on x86. After some off-list discussion of possible memory-ordering
causes for these failures, Boqun showed that these were in fact due to
reordering, but by the scheduler, not by the memory system. On x86,
rcu_torture_writer() would have run quickly enough that by the time
the rcu_torture_updown() kthread started, the rcu_torture_current
variable would already be initialized, thus avoiding a bug in which
a NULL value would cause rcu_torture_updown() to do an extra call to
srcu_up_read_fast().
This commit therefore moves creation of the rcu_torture_writer() kthread
after that of the rcu_torture_reader() kthreads. This results in
deterministic failures on x86.
What about the double-srcu_up_read_fast() bug? Boqun has the fix.
But let's also fix the test while we are at it!

RCU relies on the context tracking nesting counter in order to determine
if it is running in extended quiescent state.
However the context tracking nesting counter is not completely
synchronized with the actual context tracking state:
* The nesting counter is set to 1 or incremented further _after_ the
actual state is set to RCU watching.
* The nesting counter is set to 0 or decremented further _before_ the
actual state is set to RCU not watching.
Therefore it is safe to assume that if ct_nesting() > 0, RCU is
watching. But if ct_nesting() <= 0, RCU is not watching except for tiny
windows.
This hasn't been a problem so far because rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle()
has only been called from interrupts. However the code is confusing
and abuses the role of the context tracking nesting counter while there
are more accurate indicators available.
Clarify and robustify accordingly.

When a grace period is started, the ->expmask of each node is set up
from sync_exp_reset_tree(). Then later on each leaf node also initialize
its ->exp_tasks pointer.
This means that the initialization of the quiescent state of a node and
the initialization of its blocking tasks happen with an unlocked node
gap in-between.
It happens to be fine because nothing is expected to report an exp
quiescent state within this gap, since no IPI have been issued yet and
every rdp's ->cpu_no_qs.b.exp should be false.
However if it were to happen by accident, the quiescent state could be
reported and propagated while ignoring tasks that blocked _before_ the
start of the grace period.
Prevent such trouble to happen in the future and initialize both the
quiescent states mask to report and the blocked tasks head from the same
node locked block.
If a task blocks within an RCU read side critical section before
sync_exp_reset_tree() is called and is then unblocked between
sync_exp_reset_tree() and __sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus(), the QS
won't be reported because no RCU exp IPI had been issued to request it
through the setting of srdp->cpu_no_qs.b.exp.

For systems using a sched_ext scheduler and has panic_on_rcu_stall
enabled, try kicking out the current scheduler before issuing a panic.
While there are numerous reasons for RCU CPU stalls that are not
directly attributed to the scheduler, deferring the panic gives
sched_ext an opportunity to provide additional debug info when ejecting
the current scheduler. Also, handling the event more gracefully allows
us to potentially recover the system instead of incurring additional
down time.

Currently, the ->gpwrap is not tested (at all per my testing) due to the
requirement of a large delta between a CPU's rdp->gp_seq and its node's
rnp->gpseq.
This results in no testing of ->gpwrap being set. This patch by default
adds 5 minutes of testing with ->gpwrap forced by lowering the delta
between rdp->gp_seq and rnp->gp_seq to just 8 GPs. All of this is
configurable, including the active time for the setting and a full
testing cycle.
By default, the first 25 minutes of a test will have the _default_
behavior there is right now (ULONG_MAX / 4) delta. Then for 5 minutes,
we switch to a smaller delta causing 1-2 wraps in 5 minutes. I believe
this is reasonable since we at least add a little bit of testing for
usecases where ->gpwrap is set.

The rcu_torture_reader() and rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr() functions
run CPU-bound for extended periods of time (tens or even
hundreds of milliseconds), so they invoke tick_dep_set_task() and
tick_dep_clear_task() to ensure that the scheduling-clock tick helps
move grace periods forward.
So why doesn't rcu_torture_fwd_prog_nr() also invoke tick_dep_set_task()
and tick_dep_clear_task()? Because the point of this function is to test
RCU's ability to (eventually) force grace periods forward even when the
tick has been disabled during long CPU-bound kernel execution.

When counting the number of hardirqs in the x86 architecture,
it is essential to add arch_irq_stat_cpu to ensure accuracy.
For example, a CPU loop within the rcu_read_lock function.
Before:
[ 70.910184] rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
[ 70.910436] rcu: 3-....: (4999 ticks this GP) idle=***
[ 70.910711] rcu: hardirqs softirqs csw/system
[ 70.910870] rcu: number: 0 657 0
[ 70.911024] rcu: cputime: 0 0 2498 ==> 2498(ms)
[ 70.911278] rcu: (t=5001 jiffies g=3677 q=29 ncpus=8)
After:
[ 68.046132] rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
[ 68.046354] rcu: 2-....: (4999 ticks this GP) idle=***

It's now ok to perform a wake-up from an offline CPU because the
resulting armed scheduler bandwidth hrtimers are now correctly targeted
by hrtimer infrastructure.
Remove the obsolete hackerry.
