rcu: Make CPU_DYING_IDLE an explicit call

2016-03-01T19:36:58+00:00

Make the RCU CPU_DYING_IDLE callback an explicit function call, so it gets
invoked at the proper place.

cpu/hotplug: Make wait for dead cpu completion based

2016-03-01T19:36:58+00:00

Kill the busy spinning on the control side and just wait for the hotplugged
cpu to tell that it reached the dead state.

cpu/hotplug: Convert to a state machine for the control processor

2016-03-01T19:36:54+00:00

Move the split out steps into a callback array and let the cpu_up/down
code iterate through the array functions. For now most of the
callbacks are asymmetric to resemble the current hotplug maze.

cpu/hotplug: Restructure FROZEN state handling

2016-03-01T19:36:53+00:00

There are only a few callbacks which really care about FROZEN
vs. !FROZEN. No need to have extra states for this.

Publish the frozen state in an extra variable which is updated under
the hotplug lock and let the users interested deal with it w/o
imposing that extra state checks on everyone.

cpu: Remove try_get_online_cpus()

2015-10-07T23:02:49+00:00

Now that synchronize_sched_expedited() no longer uses it, there are
no users of try_get_online_cpus() in mainline.  This commit therefore
removes it.

include, lib: add __printf attributes to several function prototypes

2015-07-17T23:39:53+00:00

Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues
at compile time (even though -Wformat-security is currently disabled in
Makefile).  For example it can detect when formatting a pointer as a
number, like the issue fixed in commit a3fa71c40f18 ("wl18xx: show
rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments
do not match the format string, c.f.  for example commit 5ce1aca81435
("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string").

To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every
function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/.  These
functions were mostly found by using gcc's -Wsuggest-attribute=format
flag.

cpu: Provide smpboot_thread_init() on !CONFIG_SMP kernels as well

2015-04-13T08:19:30+00:00

Now that we are using smpboot_thread_init() in init/main.c as well,
provide it for !CONFIG_SMP as well.

This addresses a !CONFIG_SMP build failure.

cpu: Defer smpboot kthread unparking until CPU known to scheduler

2015-04-13T06:25:16+00:00

Currently, smpboot_unpark_threads() is invoked before the incoming CPU
has been added to the scheduler's runqueue structures.  This might
potentially cause the unparked kthread to run on the wrong CPU, since the
correct CPU isn't fully set up yet.

That causes a sporadic, hard to debug boot crash triggering on some
systems, reported by Borislav Petkov, and bisected down to:

  2a442c9c6453 ("x86: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code")

This patch places smpboot_unpark_threads() in a CPU hotplug
notifier with priority set so that these kthreads are unparked just after
the CPU has been added to the runqueues.

rcu: Handle outgoing CPUs on exit from idle loop

2015-03-12T22:19:38+00:00

This commit informs RCU of an outgoing CPU just before that CPU invokes
arch_cpu_idle_dead() during its last pass through the idle loop (via a
new CPU_DYING_IDLE notifier value).  This change means that RCU need not
deal with outgoing CPUs passing through the scheduler after informing
RCU that they are no longer online.  Note that removing the CPU from
the rcu_node ->qsmaskinit bit masks is done at CPU_DYING_IDLE time,
and orphaning callbacks is still done at CPU_DEAD time, the reason being
that at CPU_DEAD time we have another CPU that can adopt them.
