Paul E. McKenney authored
This adds the synchronize_sched_expedited() primitive that implements the "big hammer" expedited RCU grace periods. This primitive is placed in kernel/sched.c rather than kernel/rcupdate.c due to its need to interact closely with the migration_thread() kthread. The idea is to wake up this kthread with req->task set to NULL, in response to which the kthread reports the quiescent state resulting from the kthread having been scheduled. Because this patch needs to fallback to the slow versions of the primitives in response to some races with CPU onlining and offlining, a new synchronize_rcu_bh() primitive is added as well.

Remove Classic RCU, given that the combination of Tree RCU and the proposed Bloatwatch RCU do everything that Classic RCU can with fewer bugs. Tree RCU has been default in x86 builds for almost six months, and seems to be quite reliable, so there does not seem to be much justification for keeping the Classic RCU code and config complexity around anymore.

Removes the warnings about Hierarchical RCU being experimental, given that it has gone through almost six months of being the default RCU in mainline for the x86 with very little trouble.

After downing/upping a cpu, an attempt to set /proc/sys/vm/percpu_pagelist_fraction results in an oops in percpu_pagelist_fraction_sysctl_handler(). If a processor is downed then we need to set the pageset pointer back to the boot pageset. Updates of the high water marks should not access pagesets of unpopulated zones (those pointer go to the boot pagesets which would be no longer functional if their size would be increased beyond zero).

After the recent changes that went into mm/vmscan.c to overhaul stuff, we ended up with these warnings on no-mmu systems: mm/vmscan.c: In function `shrink_page_list': mm/vmscan.c:580: warning: unused variable `vm_flags' mm/vmscan.c: In function `shrink_active_list': mm/vmscan.c:1294: warning: `vm_flags' may be used uninitialized in this function mm/vmscan.c:1242: note: `vm_flags' was declared here This is because the no-mmu function defines page_referenced() to work on the first argument only (the page). It does not clear the vm_flags given to it because for no-mmu systems, they never actually get utilized. Since that is no longer strictly true, we need to set vm_flags to 0 like everyone else so gcc can do proper dead code elimination without annoying us with unused warnings.

If a kthread happens to use get_user_pages() on an mm (as KSM does), there's a chance that it will end up trying to read in a swap page, then oops in grab_swap_token() because the kthread has no mm: GUP passes down the right mm, so grab_swap_token() ought to be using it. We have not identified a stronger case than KSM's daemon (not yet in mainline), but the issue must have come up before, since RHEL has included a fix for this for years (though a different fix, they just back out of grab_swap_token if current->mm is unset: which is what we first proposed, but using the right mm here seems more correct).

Indeed FOLL_WRITE matches FAULT_FLAG_WRITE, matches GUP_FLAGS_WRITE, and it's tempting to devise a set of Grand Unified Paging flags; but not today. So until then, let's rely upon the compiler to spot the coincidence, "rather than have that subtle dependency and a comment for it" - as you remarked in another context yesterday.
