Tiny RCU's job is to be tiny, so this commit removes its RCU CPU stall warning code. After this, there is no longer any need for rcu_sched_ctrlblk and rcu_bh_ctrlblk to be in tiny_plugin.h, so this commit also moves them to tiny.c. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

RCU's debugging Kconfig options are in the unintuitive location lib/Kconfig.debug, and there are enough of them that it would be good for them to be more centralized. This commit therefore extracts RCU's Kconfig options from init/Kconfig into a new kernel/rcu/Kconfig.debug file. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

The CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL, CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE, and CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ZERO Kconfig options are used only in testing and are redundant with the rcu_nocbs= boot parameter. This commit therefore removes these three Kconfig options and adjusts the rcutorture scripts to use the boot parameter instead. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

RCU's debugfs tracing used to be the only reasonable low-level debug information available, but ftrace and event tracing has since surpassed the RCU debugfs level of usefulness. This commit therefore removes RCU's debugfs tracing. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Classic SRCU was only ever intended to be a fallback in case of issues with Tree/Tiny SRCU, and the latter two are doing quite well in testing. This commit therefore removes Classic SRCU. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The function srcutorture_get_gp_data() duplicated the check for sp->batch_check0.head instead of also checking sp->batch_check1.head. The only effect of this typo would be for rcutorture statistics to understate the fraction of time that an SRCU grace period was in flight, and only for Classic SRCU. This commit fixes this typo.

The sparse-based checking for non-RCU accesses to RCU-protected pointers has been around for a very long time, and it is now the only type of sparse-based checking that is optional. This commit therefore makes it unconditional. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com>

The PROVE_RCU_REPEATEDLY Kconfig option was initially added due to the volume of messages from PROVE_RCU: Doing just one per boot would have required excessive numbers of boots to locate them all. However, PROVE_RCU messages are now relatively rare, so there is no longer any reason to need more than one such message per boot. This commit therefore removes the PROVE_RCU_REPEATEDLY Kconfig option. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Because raw_spin_lock_irqsave() and raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore() both do typecheck() on their flags argument, there is no point in duplicating this check in raw_spin_lock_irqsave_rcu_node() and raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore_rcu_node(). This commit therefore saves a few lines by removing this duplicated check. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This commit removes a #ifdef and saves a few lines of code by moving the rcu_end_inkernel_boot() function from include/linux/rcupdate.h to include/linux/rcutiny.h (for TINY_RCU) and to include/linux/rcutree.h (for TREE_RCU). Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE full-system-idle capability was added in 2013 by commit 0edd1b17 ("nohz_full: Add full-system-idle state machine"), but has not been used. This commit therefore removes it.

Anything that can be done with the RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO Kconfig option can also be done with the rcutree.kthread_prio kernel boot parameter. This commit therefore removes this Kconfig option.

The RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP, and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY Kconfig options are only useful for torture testing, and there are the rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay, rcutree.gp_init_delay, and rcutree.gp_preinit_delay kernel boot parameters that rcutorture can use instead. The effect of these parameters is to artificially slow down grace period initialization and cleanup in order to make some types of race conditions happen more often. This commit therefore simplifies Tree RCU a bit by removing the Kconfig options and adding the corresponding kernel parameters to rcutorture's .boot files instead. However, this commit also leaves out the kernel parameters for TREE02, TREE04, and TREE07 in order to have about the same number of tests slowed as not slowed. TREE01, TREE03, TREE05, and TREE06 are slowed, and the rest are not slowed. Reported-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This commit uses TREE RCU's rnp->lock wrappers to replace a few explicit memory barriers. This change also has the advantage of making SRCU's memory-ordering properties be implemented in roughly the same way as they are in Tree RCU. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Use of smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() would allow SRCU to omit a full memory barrier during callback execution, so this commit converts raw_spin_lock_rcu_node() from inline functions to type-generic macros to allow them to handle locks in srcu_node structures as well as rcu_node structures.

The list of #includes from include/linux/rcupdate.h has grown quite a bit, so it is time to trim it. This commit moves the #include of include/linux/ktime.h to include/linux/rcutiny.h, along with the Tiny-RCU-only function that was the only thing needing ktimem.h. It then reconstructs the files included into include/linux/ktime.h based on what is actually needed, with significant help from the 0day Test Robot. This single change reduces the .i file footprint from rcupdate.h from 9018 lines to 7101 lines. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Commit 0bc2d534708b ("rcu: Refactor #includes from include/linux/rcupdate.h") caused a build regression in an MTD partition driver: In file included from drivers/mtd/bcm47xxpart.c:12:0: include/linux/bcm47xx_nvram.h: In function 'bcm47xx_nvram_init_from_mem': include/linux/bcm47xx_nvram.h:27:10: error: 'ENOTSUPP' undeclared (first use in this function) The rcupdate.h file has no particular need for linux/errno.h, so this commit includes linux/errno.h into bcm47xx_nvram.h.

Commit a5dd63ef ("lockdep: Use "WARNING" tag on lockdep splats") substituted pr_warn() for printk() in places called out by Dmitry Vyukov. However, this resulted in an ugly mix of pr_warn() and printk(). This commit therefore changes printk() to pr_warn() or pr_cont(), depending on the absence or presence of KERN_CONT. This is done in all functions that had printk() changed to pr_warn() by the aforementioned commit. Reported-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

The rcu_segcblist structure provides quite a bit of functionality, and Tiny SRCU needs almost none of it. So this commit replaces Tiny SRCU's uses of rcu_segcblist with a simple singly linked list with tail pointer. This change significantly reduces Tiny SRCU's memory footprint, more than making up for the growth caused by the creation of rcu_segcblist.c Signed-off-by: Paul E.

The call_srcu() docbook entry is currently in include/linux/srcu.h, which causes needless processing for each include point. This commit therefore moves this entry to kernel/rcu/srcutree.c, which the compiler reads only once. In addition, the srcu_batches_completed() function is used only within RCU and its torture-test suites. This commit therefore also moves this function's declaration from include/linux/srcutiny.h, include/linux/srcutree.h, and include/linux/srcuclassic.h to kernel/rcu/rcu.h. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

If a given CPU never happens to ever start an SRCU grace period, the grace-period sequence counter might wrap. If this CPU were to decide to finally start a grace period, the state of its sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed might make it appear that it has already requested this grace period, which would prevent starting the grace period. If no other CPU ever started a grace period again, this would look like a grace-period hang. Even if some other CPU took pity and started the needed grace period, the leaf rcu_node structure's ->srcu_data_have_cbs field won't have record of the fact that this CPU has a callback pending, which would look like a very localized grace-period hang. This might seem very unlikely, but SRCU grace periods can take less than a microsecond on small systems, which means that overflow can happen in much less than an hour on a 32-bit embedded system. And embedded systems are especially likely to have long-term idle CPUs. Therefore, it makes sense to prevent this scenario from happening. This commit therefore scans each srcu_data structure occasionally, with frequency controlled by the srcutree.counter_wrap_check kernel boot parameter. This parameter can be set to something like 255 in order to exercise the counter-wrap-prevention code. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The various functions similar to rcu_batches_started(), the function show_rcu_gp_kthreads(), the various functions similar to rcu_force_quiescent_state(), and the variables rcutorture_testseq and rcutorture_vernum are used only within RCU.

The "__call_rcu(): Leaked duplicate callback" error message from __call_rcu() has proven to be unhelpful. This commit therefore changes it to "__call_rcu(): Double-freed CB" and adds the value of the pointer passed in. The value of the pointer improves debuggability by allowing correlation with tracing output, for example, the rcu:rcu_callback trace event.

The include/linux/rcupdate.h file contains a number of definitions that are used only to communicate between rcutorture, rcuperf, and the RCU code itself.

The rcu_gp_is_normal(), rcu_gp_is_expedited(), rcu_expedite_gp(), and rcu_unexpedite_gp() functions are intended only for use within the RCU implementation itself -- the sysfs access is what should be used outside of RCU. This commit therefore moves the declarations for these functions to kernel/rcu/rcu.h, and also includes this file into kernel/rcu/rcutorture.c and kernel/rcu/rcuperf.c.

The include/linux/rcupdate.h file is included by more than 200 files, so shrinking it should provide some build-time benefits. This commit therefore moves several docbook comments from rcupdate.h to kernel/rcu/update.c, kernel/rcu/tree.c, and kernel/rcu/tree_plugin.h, thus reducing the number of times that the compiler has to scan these comments. This likely provides only a small benefit, but every little bit helps. This commit also fixes a malformed bulleted list noted by the 0day Test Robot.
