Classic SRCU in effect expedites the first synchronize_srcu() when SRCU is idle, and Mike Galbraith demonstrated that some use cases do in fact rely on this behavior. In particular, Mike showed that Steven Rostedt's hotplug stress script takes 55 seconds with Classic SRCU and more than 16 -minutes- when running Tree SRCU. Assuming that each Tree SRCU's call to synchronize_srcu() takes four milliseconds, this implies that Steven's test invokes synchronize_srcu() in isolation, but more than once per 200 microseconds. Mike used ftrace to demonstrate that the time between successive calls to synchronize_srcu() ranged from 118 to 342 microseconds, with one outlier at 80 milliseconds. This data clearly indicates that Tree SRCU needs to expedite the first invocation of synchronize_srcu() during an SRCU idle period. This commit therefor introduces a srcu_might_be_idle() function that probabilistically checks whether or not SRCU is idle. This function is used by synchronize_rcu() as an additional criterion in deciding whether or not to expedite. (Hat trick to Peter Zijlstra for his earlier suggestion that this might in fact be a problem. Which for all I know might have motivated Mike to look into it.) Reported-by:

Commit f60d231a ("srcu: Crude control of expedited grace periods") introduced a per-srcu_struct atomic counter to track outstanding requests for grace periods. This works, but represents a memory-contention bottleneck. This commit therefore uses the srcu_node combining tree to remove this bottleneck. This commit adds new ->srcu_gp_seq_needed_exp fields to the srcu_data, srcu_node, and srcu_struct structures, which track the farthest-in-the-future grace period that must be expedited, which in turn requires that all nearer-term grace periods also be expedited. Requests for expediting start with the srcu_data structure, run up through the srcu_node tree, and end at the srcu_struct structure. Note that it may be necessary to expedite a grace period that just now started, and this is handled by a new srcu_funnel_exp_start() function, which is invoked when the grace period itself is already in its way, but when that grace period was not marked as expedited. A new srcu_get_delay() function returns zero if there is at least one expedited SRCU grace period in flight, or SRCU_INTERVAL otherwise. This function is used to calculate delays: Normal grace periods are allowed to extend in order to cover more requests with a given grace-period computation, which decreases per-request overhead.

In the past, SRCU was simple enough that there was little point in making the rcutorture writer stall messages print the SRCU grace-period number state. With the advent of Tree SRCU, this has changed. This commit therefore makes Classic, Tiny, and Tree SRCU report this state to rcutorture as needed. Signed-off-by:

The current Tree SRCU implementation schedules a workqueue for every srcu_data covered by a given leaf srcu_node structure having callbacks, even if only one of those srcu_data structures actually contains callbacks. This is clearly inefficient for workloads that don't feature callbacks everywhere all the time. This commit therefore adds an array of masks that are used by the leaf srcu_node structures to track exactly which srcu_data structures contain callbacks. Signed-off-by:

SRCU is optional, and included only if there is a "select SRCU" in effect. However, we now have Tiny SRCU, so this commit defaults CONFIG_SRCU=y. Reported-by:

If the CONFIG_SRCU option is not selected, for example, when building arch/tile allnoconfig, the following build errors appear: kernel/rcu/tree.o: In function `srcu_online_cpu': tree.c:(.text+0x4248): multiple definition of `srcu_online_cpu' kernel/rcu/srcutree.o:srcutree.c:(.text+0x2120): first defined here kernel/rcu/tree.o: In function `srcu_offline_cpu': tree.c:(.text+0x4250): multiple definition of `srcu_offline_cpu' kernel/rcu/srcutree.o:srcutree.c:(.text+0x2160): first defined here The corresponding .config file shows CONFIG_TREE_SRCU=y, but no sign of CONFIG_SRCU, which fatally confuses SRCU's #ifdefs, resulting in the above errors. The reason this occurs is the folowing line in init/Kconfig's definition for TREE_SRCU: default y if !TINY_RCU && !CLASSIC_SRCU If CONFIG_CLASSIC_SRCU=n, as it will be in for allnoconfig, and if CONFIG_SMP=y, then we will get CONFIG_TREE_SRCU=y but no CONFIG_SRCU, as seen in the .config file, and which will result in the above errors. This error did not show up during rcutorture testing because rcutorture forces CONFIG_SRCU=y, as it must to prevent build errors in rcutorture.c. This commit therefore conditions TREE_SRCU (and TINY_SRCU, while it is at it) with SRCU, like this: default y if SRCU && !TINY_RCU && !CLASSIC_SRCU Reported-by:

Reducing real_num_tx_queues needs to be in sync with skb queue_mapping otherwise skbs with queue_mapping greater than real_num_tx_queues can be sent to the underlying driver and can result in kernel panic. One such event is running netconsole and enabling VF on the same device. Or running netconsole and changing number of tx queues via ethtool on same device. e.g. Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference tsk->{mm,active_mm}->context = 0000000000001525 tsk->{mm,active_mm}->pgd = fff800130ff9a000 \|/ ____ \|/ "@'/ .. \`@" /_| \__/ |_\ \__U_/ kworker/48:1(475): Oops [#1] CPU: 48 PID: 475 Comm: kworker/48:1 Tainted: G OE 4.11.0-rc3-davem-net+ #7 Workqueue: events queue_process task: fff80013113299c0 task.stack: fff800131132c000 TSTATE: 0000004480e01600 TPC: 00000000103f9e3c TNPC: 00000000103f9e40 Y: 00000000 Tainted: G OE TPC: <ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring+0x7c/0x6c0 [ixgbe]> g0: 0000000000000000 g1: 0000000000003fff g2: 0000000000000000 g3: 0000000000000001 g4: fff80013113299c0 g5: fff8001fa6808000 g6: fff800131132c000 g7: 00000000000000c0 o0: fff8001fa760c460 o1: fff8001311329a50 o2: fff8001fa7607504 o3: 0000000000000003 o4: fff8001f96e63a40 o5: fff8001311d77ec0 sp: fff800131132f0e1 ret_pc: 000000000049ed94 RPC: <set_next_entity+0x34/0xb80> l0: 0000000000000000 l1: 0000000000000800 l2: 0000000000000000 l3: 0000000000000000 l4: 000b2aa30e34b10d l5: 0000000000000000 l6: 0000000000000000 l7: fff8001fa7605028 i0: fff80013111a8a00 i1: fff80013155a0780 i2: 0000000000000000 i3: 0000000000000000 i4: 0000000000000000 i5: 0000000000100000 i6: fff800131132f1a1 i7: 00000000103fa4b0 I7: <ixgbe_xmit_frame+0x30/0xa0 [ixgbe]> Call Trace: [00000000103fa4b0] ixgbe_xmit_frame+0x30/0xa0 [ixgbe] [0000000000998c74] netpoll_start_xmit+0xf4/0x200 [0000000000998e10] queue_process+0x90/0x160 [0000000000485fa8] process_one_work+0x188/0x480 [0000000000486410] worker_thread+0x170/0x4c0 [000000000048c6b8] kthread+0xd8/0x120 [0000000000406064] ret_from_fork+0x1c/0x2c [0000000000000000] (null) Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint Caller[00000000103fa4b0]: ixgbe_xmit_frame+0x30/0xa0 [ixgbe] Caller[0000000000998c74]: netpoll_start_xmit+0xf4/0x200 Caller[0000000000998e10]: queue_process+0x90/0x160 Caller[0000000000485fa8]: process_one_work+0x188/0x480 Caller[0000000000486410]: worker_thread+0x170/0x4c0 Caller[000000000048c6b8]: kthread+0xd8/0x120 Caller[0000000000406064]: ret_from_fork+0x1c/0x2c Caller[0000000000000000]: (null) Signed-off-by:Tushar Dave <tushar.n.dave@oracle.com> Signed-off-by:

Andrey Konovalov reported a BUG caused by the ip6mr code which is caused because we call unregister_netdevice_many for a device that is already being destroyed. In IPv4's ipmr that has been resolved by two commits long time ago by introducing the "notify" parameter to the delete function and avoiding the unregister when called from a notifier, so let's do the same for ip6mr.

Maps of per-cpu type have their value element size adjusted to 8 if it is specified smaller during various map operations. This makes test_maps as a 32-bit binary fail, in fact the kernel writes past the end of the value's array on the user's stack. To be quite honest, I think the kernel should reject creation of a per-cpu map that doesn't have a value size of at least 8 if that's what the kernel is going to silently adjust to later. If the user passed something smaller, it is a sizeof() calcualtion based upon the type they will actually use (just like in this testcase code) in later calls to the map operations.

Andrey's syzkaller program passes rtmsg.rtmsg_flags with the RTF_PCPU bit set. Flags passed to the kernel are blindly copied to the allocated rt6_info by ip6_route_info_create making a newly inserted route appear as though it is a per-cpu route. ip6_rt_cache_alloc sees the flag set and expects rt->dst.from to be set - which it is not since it is not really a per-cpu copy. The subsequent call to __ip6_dst_alloc then generates the fault. Fix by checking for the flag and failing with EINVAL. Fixes: d52d3997 ("ipv6: Create percpu rt6_info") Reported-by:

Commit 07b26c94 ("gso: Support partial splitting at the frag_list pointer") assumes that all SKBs in a frag_list (except maybe the last one) contain the same amount of GSO payload. This assumption is not always correct, resulting in the following warning message in the log: skb_segment: too many frags For example, mlx5 driver in Striding RQ mode creates some RX SKBs with one frag, and some with 2 frags. After GRO, the frag_list SKBs end up having different amounts of payload. If this frag_list SKB is then forwarded, the aforementioned assumption is violated. Validate the assumption, and fall back to software GSO if it not true.

We have a real fix for this, but it's too late in the cycle. Thankfully we already have a NO_SCHED flag we can apply here. A prep patch for this is ensuring that we honor the NO_SCHED flag when attempting to online switch schedulers, previsouly we only did so for drive load time. From Ming. - Fixing an oops in blk-mq polling with scheduling attached. This one is easily reproducible, it would be a shame to release 4.11 with that issue. From me.

-
Paul E. McKenney authored
Currently, a call to schedule() acts as a Tasks RCU quiescent state only if a context switch actually takes place. However, just the call to schedule() guarantees that the calling task has moved off of whatever tracing trampoline that it might have been one previously. This commit therefore plumbs schedule()'s "preempt" parameter into rcu_note_context_switch(), which then records the Tasks RCU quiescent state, but only if this call to schedule() was -not- due to a preemption. To avoid adding overhead to the common-case context-switch path, this commit hides the rcu_note_context_switch() check under an existing non-common-case check. Suggested-by:

Although Tree SRCU does reduce delays when there is at least one synchronize_srcu_expedited() invocation pending, srcu_schedule_cbs_snp() still waits for SRCU_INTERVAL before invoking callbacks. Since synchronize_srcu_expedited() now posts a callback and waits for that callback to do a wakeup, this destroys the expedited nature of synchronize_srcu_expedited(). This destruction became apparent to Marc Zyngier in the guise of a guest-OS bootup slowdown from five seconds to no fewer than forty seconds. This commit therefore invokes callbacks immediately at the end of the grace period when there is at least one synchronize_srcu_expedited() invocation pending. This brought Marc's guest-OS bootup times back into the realm of reason. Reported-by:

Peter Zijlstra proposed using SRCU to reduce mmap_sem contention [1,2], however, there are workloads that could result in a high volume of concurrent invocations of call_srcu(), which with current SRCU would result in excessive lock contention on the srcu_struct structure's ->queue_lock, which protects SRCU's callback lists. This commit therefore moves SRCU to per-CPU callback lists, thus greatly reducing contention. Because a given SRCU instance no longer has a single centralized callback list, starting grace periods and invoking callbacks are both more complex than in the single-list Classic SRCU implementation. Starting grace periods and handling callbacks are now handled using an srcu_node tree that is in some ways similar to the rcu_node trees used by RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched (for example, the srcu_node tree shape is controlled by exactly the same Kconfig options and boot parameters that control the shape of the rcu_node tree). In addition, the old per-CPU srcu_array structure is now named srcu_data and contains an rcu_segcblist structure named ->srcu_cblist for its callbacks (and a spinlock to protect this). The srcu_struct gets an srcu_gp_seq that is used to associate callback segments with the corresponding completion-time grace-period number. These completion-time grace-period numbers are propagated up the srcu_node tree so that the grace-period workqueue handler can determine whether additional grace periods are needed on the one hand and where to look for callbacks that are ready to be invoked. The srcu_barrier() function must now wait on all instances of the per-CPU ->srcu_cblist. Because each ->srcu_cblist is protected by ->lock, srcu_barrier() can remotely add the needed callbacks. In theory, it could also remotely start grace periods, but in practice doing so is complex and racy. And interestingly enough, it is never necessary for srcu_barrier() to start a grace period because srcu_barrier() only enqueues a callback when a callback is already present--and it turns out that a grace period has to have already been started for this pre-existing callback. Furthermore, it is only the callback that srcu_barrier() needs to wait on, not any particular grace period. Therefore, a new rcu_segcblist_entrain() function enqueues the srcu_barrier() function's callback into the same segment occupied by the last pre-existing callback in the list. The special case where all the pre-existing callbacks are on a different list (because they are in the process of being invoked) is handled by enqueuing srcu_barrier()'s callback into the RCU_DONE_TAIL segment, relying on the done-callbacks check that takes place after all callbacks are inovked. Note that the readers use the same algorithm as before. Note that there is a separate srcu_idx that tells the readers what counter to increment. This unfortunately cannot be combined with srcu_gp_seq because they need to be incremented at different times. This commit introduces some ugly #ifdefs in rcutorture. These will go away when I feel good enough about Tree SRCU to ditch Classic SRCU. Some crude performance comparisons, courtesy of a quickly hacked rcuperf asynchronous-grace-period capability: Callback Queuing Overhead ------------------------- # CPUS Classic SRCU Tree SRCU ------ ------------ --------- 2 0.349 us 0.342 us 16 31.66 us 0.4 us 41 --------- 0.417 us The times are the 90th percentiles, a statistic that was chosen to reject the overheads of the occasional srcu_barrier() call needed to avoid OOMing the test machine. The rcuperf test hangs when running Classic SRCU at 41 CPUs, hence the line of dashes. Despite the hacks to both the rcuperf code and that statistics, this is a convincing demonstration of Tree SRCU's performance and scalability advantages.

Parallelizing SRCU callback handling will increase the size of srcu_struct, which will move the kvm structure's kvm_arch field out of reach of powerpc's current assembly code, which will result in the following sort of build error: arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S:617: Error: operand out of range (0x000000000000b328 is not between 0xffffffffffff8000 and 0x0000000000007fff) This commit moves the srcu_struct fields in the kvm structure to follow the kvm_arch field, which will allow powerpc's assembly code to continue to be able to reach the kvm_arch field.

Merge two mm fixes from Andrew Morton. * emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: mm: prevent NR_ISOLATE_* stats from going negative Revert "mm, page_alloc: only use per-cpu allocator for irq-safe requests"

Rabin Vincent authored
Commit 6afcf8ef ("mm, compaction: fix NR_ISOLATED_* stats for pfn based migration") moved the dec_node_page_state() call (along with the page_is_file_cache() call) to after putback_lru_page(). But page_is_file_cache() can change after putback_lru_page() is called, so it should be called before putback_lru_page(), as it was before that patch, to prevent NR_ISOLATE_* stats from going negative. Without this fix, non-CONFIG_SMP kernels end up hanging in the while(too_many_isolated()) { congestion_wait() } loop in shrink_active_list() due to the negative stats.

This reverts commit 374ad05a. While the patch worked great for userspace allocations, the fact that softirq loses the per-cpu allocator caused problems. It needs to be redone taking into account that a separate list is needed for hard/soft IRQs or alternatively find a cheap way of detecting reentry due to an interrupt. Both are possible but sufficiently tricky that it shouldn't be rushed. Jesper had one method for allowing softirqs but reported that the cost was high enough that it performed similarly to a plain revert. His figures for netperf TCP_STREAM were as follows Baseline v4.10.0 : 60316 Mbit/s Current 4.11.0-rc6: 47491 Mbit/s Jesper's patch : 60662 Mbit/s This patch : 60106 Mbit/s As this is a regression, I wish to revert to noirq allocator for now and go back to the drawing board.

If we have a scheduler attached, blk_mq_tag_to_rq() on the scheduled tags will return NULL if a request is no longer in flight. This is different than using the normal tags, where it will always return the fixed request. Check for this condition for polling, in case we happen to enter polling for a completed request. The request address remains valid, so this check and return should be perfectly safe. Fixes: bd166ef1 ("blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO schedulers") Tested-by:
