      Pull RCU updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A large update to RCU:
      
        Preparatory work for consolidating the RCU flavors:
      
         - Introduce grace-period sequence numbers to the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt,
           and RCU-sched flavors, replacing the old ->gpnum and ->completed
           pair of fields.
      
           This change allows lockless code to obtain the complete
           grace-period state with a single READ_ONCE(), which is needed to
           maintain tolerable lock contention during the upcoming
           consolidation of the three RCU flavors.
      
           Note that grace-period sequence numbers are already used by
           rcu_barrier(), expedited RCU grace periods, and SRCU, and are thus
           already heavily used and well-tested. Joel Fernandes contributed a
           number of excellent fixes and improvements.
      
         - Clean up some grace-period-reporting loose ends, including
           improving the handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs and
           fixing some false-positive WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations.
      
           (Strictly speaking, the WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations were quite
           correct, but their invariants were (harmlessly) violated by the
           earlier sloppy handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs.)
      
           In addition, improve grace-period forward-progress guarantees so as
           to allow removal of fail-safe checks that required otherwise
           needless lock acquisitions. Finally, add more diagnostics to help
           debug the upcoming consolidation of the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and
           RCU-sched flavors.
      
        The rest:
      
         - SRCU updates
      
         - Updates to rcutorture and associated scripting.
      
         - The usual pile of miscellaneous fixes"

      init: rename and re-order boot_cpu_state_init() · b5b1404d
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This is purely a preparatory patch for upcoming changes during the 4.19
      merge window.
      
      We have a function called "boot_cpu_state_init()" that isn't really
      about the bootup cpu state: that is done much earlier by the similarly
      named "boot_cpu_init()" (note lack of "state" in name).
      
      This function initializes some hotplug CPU state, and needs to run after
      the percpu data has been properly initialized.  It even has a comment to
      that effect.
      
      Except it _doesn't_ actually run after the percpu data has been properly
      initialized.  On x86 it happens to do that, but on at least arm and
      arm64, the percpu base pointers are initialized by the arch-specific
      'smp_prepare_boot_cpu()' hook, which ran _after_ boot_cpu_state_init().
      
      This had some unexpected results, and in particular we have a patch
      pending for the merge window that did the obvious cleanup of using
      'this_cpu_write()' in the cpu hotplug init code:
      
        -       per_cpu_ptr(&cpuhp_state, smp_processor_id())->state = CPUHP_ONLINE;
        +       this_cpu_write(cpuhp_state.state, CPUHP_ONLINE);
      
      which is obviously the right thing to do.  Except because of the
      ordering issue, it actually failed miserably and unexpectedly on arm64.
      
      So this just fixes the ordering, and changes the name of the function to
      be 'boot_cpu_hotplug_init()' to make it obvious that it's about cpu
      hotplug state, because the core CPU state was supposed to have already
      been done earlier.
      
      Marked for stable, since the (not yet merged) patch that will show this
      problem is marked for stable.

      make sure that __dentry_kill() always invalidates d_seq, unhashed or not · 4c0d7cd5
      Al Viro authored
      RCU pathwalk relies upon the assumption that anything that changes
      ->d_inode of a dentry will invalidate its ->d_seq.  That's almost
      true - the one exception is that the final dput() of already unhashed
      dentry does *not* touch ->d_seq at all.  Unhashing does, though,
      so for anything we'd found by RCU dcache lookup we are fine.
      Unfortunately, we can *start* with an unhashed dentry or jump into
      it.
      
      We could try and be careful in the (few) places where that could
      happen.  Or we could just make the final dput() invalidate the damn
      thing, unhashed or not.  The latter is much simpler and easier to
      backport, so let's do it that way.

      fix __legitimize_mnt()/mntput() race · 119e1ef8
      Al Viro authored
      __legitimize_mnt() has two problems - one is that in case of success
      the check of mount_lock is not ordered wrt preceding increment of
      refcount, making it possible to have successful __legitimize_mnt()
      on one CPU just before the otherwise final mntpu() on another,
      with __legitimize_mnt() not seeing mntput() taking the lock and
      mntput() not seeing the increment done by __legitimize_mnt().
      Solved by a pair of barriers.
      
      Another is that failure of __legitimize_mnt() on the second
      read_seqretry() leaves us with reference that'll need to be
      dropped by caller; however, if that races with final mntput()
      we can end up with caller dropping rcu_read_lock() and doing
      mntput() to release that reference - with the first mntput()
      having freed the damn thing just as rcu_read_lock() had been
      dropped.  Solution: in "do mntput() yourself" failure case
      grab mount_lock, check if MNT_DOOMED has been set by racing
      final mntput() that has missed our increment and if it has -
      undo the increment and treat that as "failure, caller doesn't
      need to drop anything" case.
      
      It's not easy to hit - the final mntput() has to come right
      after the first read_seqretry() in __legitimize_mnt() *and*
      manage to miss the increment done by __legitimize_mnt() before
      the second read_seqretry() in there.  The things that are almost
      impossible to hit on bare hardware are not impossible on SMP
      KVM, though...

      fix mntput/mntput race · 9ea0a46c
      Al Viro authored
      mntput_no_expire() does the calculation of total refcount under mount_lock;
      unfortunately, the decrement (as well as all increments) are done outside
      of it, leading to false positives in the "are we dropping the last reference"
      test.  Consider the following situation:
      	* mnt is a lazy-umounted mount, kept alive by two opened files.  One
      of those files gets closed.  Total refcount of mnt is 2.  On CPU 42
      mntput(mnt) (called from __fput()) drops one reference, decrementing component
      	* After it has looked at component #0, the process on CPU 0 does
      mntget(), incrementing component #0, gets preempted and gets to run again -
      on CPU 69.  There it does mntput(), which drops the reference (component #69)
      and proceeds to spin on mount_lock.
      	* On CPU 42 our first mntput() finishes counting.  It observes the
      decrement of component #69, but not the increment of component #0.  As the
      result, the total it gets is not 1 as it should've been - it's 0.  At which
      point we decide that vfsmount needs to be killed and proceed to free it and
      shut the filesystem down.  However, there's still another opened file
      on that filesystem, with reference to (now freed) vfsmount, etc. and we are
      screwed.
      
      It's not a wide race, but it can be reproduced with artificial slowdown of
      the mnt_get_count() loop, and it should be easier to hit on SMP KVM setups.
      
      Fix consists of moving the refcount decrement under mount_lock; the tricky
      part is that we want (and can) keep the fast case (i.e. mount that still
      has non-NULL ->mnt_ns) entirely out of mount_lock.  All places that zero
      mnt->mnt_ns are dropping some reference to mnt and they call synchronize_rcu()
      before that mntput().  IOW, if mntput() observes (under rcu_read_lock())
      a non-NULL ->mnt_ns, it is guaranteed that there is another reference yet to
      be dropped.

      Jesper Dangaard Brouer says:
      
      ====================
      Removing entries from cpumap and devmap, goes through a number of
      syncronization steps to make sure no new xdp_frames can be enqueued.
      But there is a small chance, that xdp_frames remains which have not
      been flushed/processed yet.  Flushing these during teardown, happens
      from RCU context and not as usual under RX NAPI context.
      
      The optimization introduced in commt 389ab7f0 ("xdp: introduce
      xdp_return_frame_rx_napi"), missed that the flush operation can also
      be called from RCU context.  Thus, we cannot always use the
      xdp_return_frame_rx_napi call, which take advantage of the protection
      provided by XDP RX running under NAPI protection.
      
      The samples/bpf xdp_redirect_cpu have a --stress-mode, that is
      adjusted to easier reproduce (verified by Red Hat QA).

      The teardown race in cpumap is really hard to reproduce.  These changes
      makes it easier to reproduce, for QA.
      
      The --stress-mode now have a case of a very small queue size of 8, that helps
      to trigger teardown flush to encounter a full queue, which results in calling
      xdp_return_frame API, in a non-NAPI protect context.
      
      Also increase MAX_CPUS, as my QA department have larger machines than me.

      xdp: fix bug in cpumap teardown code path · ad0ab027
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      When removing a cpumap entry, a number of syncronization steps happen.
      Eventually the teardown code __cpu_map_entry_free is invoked from/via
      call_rcu.
      
      The teardown code __cpu_map_entry_free() flushes remaining xdp_frames,
      by invoking bq_flush_to_queue, which calls xdp_return_frame_rx_napi().
      The issues is that the teardown code is not running in the RX NAPI
      code path.  Thus, it is not allowed to invoke the NAPI variant of
      xdp_return_frame.
      
      This bug was found and triggered by using the --stress-mode option to
      the samples/bpf program xdp_redirect_cpu.  It is hard to trigger,
      because the ptr_ring have to be full and cpumap bulk queue max
      contains 8 packets, and a remote CPU is racing to empty the ptr_ring
      queue.

      i2c: xlp9xx: Fix case where SSIF read transaction completes early · 5eb173f5
      George Cherian authored
      During ipmi stress tests we see occasional failure of transactions
      at the boot time. This happens in the case of a I2C_M_RECV_LEN
      transactions, when the read transfer completes (with the initial
      read length of 34) before the driver gets a chance to handle interrupts.
      
      The current driver code expects at least 2 interrupts for I2C_M_RECV_LEN
      transactions. The length is updated during the first interrupt, and  the
      buffer contents are only copied during subsequent interrupts. In case of
      just one interrupt, we will complete the transaction without copying
      out the bytes from RX fifo.
      
      Update the code to drain the RX fifo after the length update,
      so that the transaction completes correctly in all cases.
